“Xiao Wu, why do you want to marry me? You’re still a young girl.
It’s too early to get married.” Ming Xi had a good impression of Feng Wu.
He thought she was an honest, sincere and straightforward girl, but he didn’t feel any love for her.
On top of that Feng Wu was only 15.
It was too early to get married.
Did she understand what marriage was?

“Because you’re like Master.
Master said if I want to get married in the future, I have to find a man like him.” Feng Wu answered honestly in a quiet voice.

The Masters team: Girl! You don’t have to speak so honestly!

The group peered at Ming Xi’s face cautiously.
Anyone who heard a reason like that would feel some kind of way.

Sure enough Ming Xi’s mouth twitched.
His eyes looked helpless, but there was clarity too.
He thought of the love letter and how she had said he was like her master.
He had laughed at the time, but he understood now.

“I’m sorry Xiao Wu, my answer is still no.”

“Oh.”

No one expected Feng Wu to nod calmly and reply with a single syllable like that.
There wasn’t a trace of disappointment on her face.

Ming Xi didn’t want to talk about it anymore.
He immediately left after saying goodbye to the group.

His steps were a bit haphazard and faster than usual.
Don’t be mistaken, he still presented a graceful image, but it definitely looked like he was running away.

Her proposal that day failed and they didn’t see each other again the rest of the semester…

Tian hadn’t known who Feng Wu wanted to marry; he’d only known from his illustrious grandfather that she had proposed boldly to a classmate.
But he hadn’t believed it.
Based on what he knew of her, proposing in public in front of so many people wasn’t something she had the ability to do.

Therefore, Tian decisively misunderstood what she meant.
He swallowed and took a deep breath.
He was embarrassed.
He didn’t want to discourage her after they’d finally made up, but these kinds of things, they were better addressed sooner than later.
Her lack of understanding would only hurt her in the future.

He deliberated on the best way to explain without hurting her too much.
“Xiao Wu, I know Bai is the only person in your heart, but the two of you aren’t well suited.
I believe you’ll find a man who truly loves you in the future.”

Tian expected her to be sad upon hearing this, but she was completely calm.
It was unusual.

She looked at him with her big eyes and in her normal expressionless face asked, “Who is Bai?” There was a hint of confusion in her voice.

“You don’t remember Bai?!” Tian was taken aback.
He of all people knew how much she liked Bai.
She had done so many crazy things for him.
But now she was asking him who Bai was, and in such a confused voice.

He felt like he’d been hit by thunder.

“Why should I know him?” Was this Bai an important person? Thinking about it, Feng Wu still couldn’t recall the person.

Her brows furrowed.
She was talking to him about her marriage proposal, so why was her big brother talking about Bai? Who was Bai? And what did he have to do with anything?

Feng Wu blinked her eyes.

“If you don’t remember him, then you don’t need to try to remember.
He’s unimportant.” Whether Xiao Wu genuinely forgot, or was just pretending in order to heal her heart, he didn’t intend to push the matter.
She could keep forgetting Bai.
It was better for her that way.

“Big brother, you didn’t explain why he wouldn’t agree to marry me.
Why doesn’t he want to be Little Bun’s father?” Feng Wu couldn’t understand.
Her brother looked really smart, so he would know why Ming Xi refused her.

Tian didn’t know how to answer her.
It looked like she was having a personal issue.
Her obsession with Bai had not been a good thing.
He knew he should be happy about her thoughts now but he was still worried.
He was concerned that his little sister had tossed out Bai only to latch on to some other random guy.

“Xiao Wu, I think you’re still young.
It’s better to think about marriage in a few years.” Tian said solemnly.

“Sister Tian Yue said I’m already a mother so I’m an adult.” She blinked and looked him in the eyes seriously.

Feng Wu thought about it.
Master had said she would be an adult if she gave birth to a child.
She was not married but she did have a child.
Sister Tian Yue said the same thing, so it couldn’t be wrong.

Feng Wu reaffirmed it in her heart: She was an adult.

Tian was speechless.
Xiao Wu was a mother.
It did feel far-fetched to say a woman with a baby was a child herself.
He didn’t know how to help her with her problem so he said he would find a way to help her.
Then he ended their conversation as fast as he could.

Feng Wu was in a good mood.
Her mouth twitched upwards.
Her big brother said he would find a way, so when he figured out how, Ming Xi would definitely agree.
Thinking about it lightened her mood considerably.
It never crossed her mind he could have lied.

At the Feng house, Tian sat in a daze in his chair with a heavy expression on his face as he considered the heavy expectation placed on him.
For a guy with zero experience in love, it was a lot of pressure.
He had never even held hands with a girl who wasn’t a member of his family.
He looked helplessly around the room.

He closed his eyes and thought for a full 5 minutes, then he got up and determinedly walked to his mother’s room.

Madam Lan had a worried expression on her face as she sat in her room.
She wiped a tear as she thought about her daughter.
Her baby would definitely be hungry.
Living by herself, and with a child to raise, it had to be so hard on her!
