The Problem with Marrying Rich: Out of the Way, Ex Chapter 793 - A Baby Girl Was Given to Them

Chapter 793: A Baby Girl Was Given to Them

He Xiyan looked at this couple and saw that they were a young couple who looked like they were in their mid-twenties. She searched her memory and realized that she didn’t know this couple at all and she had never met them either. Were they relatives of Aunt w.a.n.g?

She wondered.

“They are…?” He Xiyan looked at Aunt w.a.n.g awkwardly.

Aunt w.a.n.g was tasked with keeping their place clean but it wouldn’t be appropriate to bring her relatives around in their house, right?

Aunt w.a.n.g beamed as she pulled He Xiyan over to sit beside the couple. Then, she said, “Yan Yan, this couple are my relatives on my maternal side, my cousin once removed Liu Peng and his wife, Feng Lan. This is their daughter who has just turned two months old. They have yet to name her.”

He Xiyan didn’t know what to say.

She looked at them in confusion and didn’t know why Aunt w.a.n.g had brought such distant relatives over to her house. However, her gaze was drawn to the baby girl. The girl was fair and plump and although her features weren’t fully developed, she was an adorable baby.

“Your daughter is very adorable,” she said with a smile. Her conflicted feelings disappeared the moment she saw this baby.

She suddenly longed to have an adorable little girl of her own.

Feng Lan sighed and looked a little miserable.

He Xiyan didn’t understand why she looked so upset and wondered if she was upset because she had given birth to a girl instead of a boy.

Aunt w.a.n.g patted He Xiyan’s shoulder and said with a smile, “Yan Yan, Liu Peng and his wife already have three children and they were planning to have a boy before they finally stopped having children but to their disappointment, their third baby turned out to be a girl too. They don’t have much money, so it would be difficult raising three babies…”

He Xiyan immediately understood what she was trying to say.

Liu Peng who had been silent the entire time suddenly said, “Boss Chen…”

He Xiyan was speechless.

Boss Chen? Her? Was he talking to her?

“Please hear us out, Boss Chen,” Liu Peng said with a sigh. “I can’t bear to part with my daughter either but I haven’t got much of a choice. We don’t have much money to begin with, so it was very difficult getting by with two children and we truly cannot afford a third child. Thus, I thought of giving this child to both you and Jiahang. You’re both rich and have the ability to raise a child. Moreover, you have yet to have a child of your own, so i was wondering if you’re willing to adopt her?”

Liu Peng’s tone was solemn and grave. Although his words sounded harsh, she could see the tears that swam in his eyes.

This daughter was still his flesh and blood, so it was understandable that he couldn’t bear to part with her.

His wife Feng Lan had already started wiping the tears from her eyes and her low sobs made He Xiyan feel terrible for the couple.

She looked at the baby and the baby girl had also woken up from her slumber. She moved her tiny hands and feet and looked up at He Xiyan.

He Xiyan smiled at the baby and her smile was bright and sweet as she reached out to hold the baby’s hand. The baby’s tiny hand was extremely soft to touch.

“Baby…” she cooed softly.

The baby reacted as though she had heard her and suddenly broke into a silly smile which made her look even more adorable.

Feng Lan sobbed even harder when she saw her baby smile. She didn’t want to give her child away. This child was her own flesh and blood, so how could she bear to part with her? However, she had already given birth to three daughters in a row, so she was also upset at the thought that she still had to try for a boy.

He Xiyan pulled out a tissue and handed it to her. She was also a woman, so naturally, she could see how upset Feng Lan was.

She turned to look at Jiahang and wanted to seek his opinion. If Jiahang didn’t want to adopt the child, she would also donate some money to this couple so that they’d be able to raise their child.
