Chapter 683 Not a big problem
The group looked up, but no one spoke. After a brief silence, only Zheng Yifeng moved Su Miaomiao's phone in front of Lu Yuanqiu.

Lu Yuanqiu picked it up and examined it closely. His expression changed slightly as he looked through the chat history. He roughly understood why Su Miaomiao was so angry.

Lu Yuanqiu only then realized that Su Miaomiao had secretly taken on the responsibility of caring for four children on her behalf.

Zhong Jincheng must feel responsible for what happened, but she is no longer their teacher... The only reason she persists is because of the inseparable bond they have formed over time.

Su Miaomiao let out a breath: "So, you all think about having the baby?"

No one spoke; silence was the answer.

Su Miaomiao raised her hand to cover her face, looking very melancholy.

"I really don't know whether to say you're young or you're taking this too lightly. I have a friend who planned to have a baby after getting married. The couple spent half a year preparing for pregnancy, and they were very well prepared. But after the baby was born, their lives were still a mess. What's more, one of them is a student and the other is a recent graduate. How can they take care of the baby while keeping it a secret from their parents?"

Su Miaomiao sighed: "It's irresponsible and cruel to abort the child, but it's the best option right now. I'm absolutely certain of one thing: they simply don't have the ability to take care of the child right now."

Zheng Yifeng: "Actually, you don't have to be so realistic when considering problems."

Su Miaomiao turned her head: "Which child grows up on romanticism?"

Zheng Yifeng: "Life is unpredictable. How can you be fully prepared and follow a set plan? Would you have imagined that you would be dating a student?"

Su Miaomiao was speechless.

Zheng Yifeng then looked at Lu Yuanqiu: "Did you ever imagine that you could get into Zhuhai University?"

Lu Yuanqiu wanted to retort, "Who the hell do you think you are?"
However, he remained silent in the face of the current atmosphere.

Zheng Yifeng: "Would Bai Qingxia ever imagine that she could be with Lu Yuanqiu?"

Bai Qingxia was cooking noodles and couldn't hear.

Zheng Yifeng concluded, "Since they have already made their choice, we shouldn't try to change their lives. The hardships and happiness on this path are unknown. Do you really think that after they abort the child and give up this trouble, they will truly feel relieved?"

Su Miaomiao: "Oh, then I was just being nosy."

Zheng Yifeng: "No, I'm just saying that in this matter, all we can do is offer suggestions; the decision rests with them."

Su Miaomiao: "Yes, it's because I don't understand my own position."

After she finished speaking, she stood up, grabbed her bag, slapped Lu Yuanqiu's arm, snatched the phone from his hand, and left.

Lu Yuanqiu (゜-゜)
What is the significance of slapping someone?

Zheng Yifeng glanced back, then calmly turned his head back. Seeing Zhong Jincheng looking up at him with a questioning expression, Zheng Yifeng calmly replied, "Never mind."

Lu Yuanqiu touched his nose, saw Zheng Yifeng take out his phone and glance at it, then swallowed hard and put the phone back in his pocket.

After looking at his phone, his expression seemed less composed than before.

Just as Lu Yuanqiu was about to ask, Zheng Yifeng spoke first to the two people opposite him: "Have you eaten since you came back from the hospital?"

Zhong Jincheng and Luo Wei both shook their heads.

Zheng Yifeng quickly stood up: "I'll go ask Bai Qingxia to make a few portions."

As he walked toward the counter, he looked down, took out his phone, and started typing furiously.

Lu Yuanqiu: "..."

Luo Wei looked down at her phone.

Zhong Jincheng forwarded her a bunch of links to parenting tips that morning, and even talked about the child's name. She didn't know why Zhong Jincheng suddenly became interested in naming the child, when he had other more important things to deal with right now.

But Zhong Jincheng really did send her a whole page of messages about choosing a name.

Looking at this chat history, Luo Wei suddenly felt a quiet happiness, a feeling she had never experienced during her relationship with Zhong Jincheng. It was a sense of security brought about by having a child, as if they had truly built a home together. No child grows up on romanticism, but no parent can live a happy and fulfilling life solely on realism.

"Give birth to the baby, even if it's bitter, I'll swallow it." Luo Wei put down her phone.

Zhong Jincheng turned to look at her, a hint of apology in his eyes.

Lu Yuanqiu sat in the seat Su Miaomiao had just been in and said half-jokingly, "You didn't listen to a word Teacher Su said."

Zhong Jincheng responded: "I am already very happy, Lu Yuanqiu. Actually, I don't have any great pursuits in this life. Really, having a simple, happy family is my pursuit."

Lu Yuanqiu nodded silently, "Mm." He added, "If you have any difficulties, just say so. Financial problems are not a problem. Don't try to tough it out on your own."

Zhong Jincheng smiled and said, "Okay."

"How strange," Zhong Jincheng suddenly exclaimed.

Lu Yuanqiu: "What's wrong?"

Zhong Jincheng shook his head and smiled, "It feels like high school was just yesterday. I snatched your test paper, and you chased me to the bathroom. But today, I'm already thinking about how to take care of my family."

Lu Yuanqiu remained silent for a long time.

"Four bowls of noodles," Zheng Yifeng said, standing by the counter.

Bai Qingxia: "What kind of noodles? What would you like to add?"

Zheng Yifeng didn't even look up, engrossed in typing, his fingers moving rapidly: "Whatever."

Bai Qingxia tiptoed slightly, trying to peek: "What are you doing?"

Zheng Yifeng deliberately raised his phone screen to prevent her from seeing it, which surprised Bai Qingxia. Zheng Yifeng rarely showed such a "uncomfortable" expression.

"It's alright, let's make noodles."

"Where's Teacher Su? Isn't she eating?"

She's full.

"Oh."

After Zheng Yifeng returned to his seat, Lu Yuanqiu moved to the side and quietly touched Zheng Yifeng's leg, mouthing, "What's going on?"

Zheng Yifeng only showed Lu Yuanqiu one chat log.

Su Miaomiao: Let's pretend we're strangers from now on.

Lu Yuanqiu chuckled awkwardly, "Teacher Su... is just angry right now. It's alright, we can just coax her a little."

Zheng Yifeng: "It doesn't matter."

Lu Yuanqiu: "Really? Show me your reply."

Zheng Yifeng glanced to the side and put his phone into his other pocket: "Just replying normally, no big deal."

"Drip drop~"

Lu Yuanqiu took out his phone.

Bai Qingxia: Teacher Su said she has deleted Zheng Yifeng and doesn't want to talk to you and Zhong Jincheng anymore. She asked you to tell Zhong Jincheng that he didn't go home for winter break and hasn't called home in a long time. She asked him to find an opportunity to call home, but not to tell his family about this.

After reading the message, Lu Yuanqiu glanced at Zheng Yifeng's calm expression a few more times.
