Lying in bed, she stared with open eyes for a long time, always feeling that this matter wouldn't easily go away.
Gu Kai, Gu Kai, would you please stop tormenting me? Just let me off the hook...
Burying her face in the pillow, Shen Ruo took a deep breath, praying that this time fate would be on her side.
After sleeping straight through to the evening, when Shen Ruo got out of bed and came downstairs, the food was already prepared.
At the dinner table, Mr. Shen, Mrs. Shen, and Shen Yang all looked like they had something to say but were holding back. Under Shen Ruo's inquiring gaze, Mr. Shen broke the silence, "Do you really plan to marry Xiaoyang?"
Shen Ruo cast a surprised glance at Shen Yang and said in a fluster, "Dad, it's just an engagement for now..."
"I know, Xiaoyang has told me all about it. But, this matter will eventually be known by outsiders. Aren't you afraid of your birth being exposed?"
