Who gets reborn with a daughter?

●

8:30 p.m.

Private room at Tianyuan Mingdu Hotel.

Fang Chusheng looked at Bai Xiaochu, who was three seats away, and pondered.

They happened to run into Bai Xiaochu's family returning from the countryside on their way back to Bailong County from Liandu District.

Old Fang and Old Bai hit it off immediately, and the two families packed their things and hurriedly arrived at Tianyuan Mingdu.

Today's dinner was different from yesterday's. The two families are neighbors and know each other very well. The two men and two women chatted enthusiastically, but the two younger family members remained silent.

Both of them had their own thoughts and were secretly observing each other.

"Which 'little white' is it today?"

Fang Chusheng thought he knew everything about Bai Xiaochu, but now it seems that he did not.

"How can I tell him the truth without upsetting him?"

Bai Xiaochu wanted to tell him that "we have a child," but she was worried that her childhood sweetheart wouldn't be able to handle it.

"Hiss! Why is Xiaobai keeping peeking at me? Does he know about my two-timing in my past life?"

Fang Chusheng felt uneasy and subconsciously twisted his body.

"Ah Fang is acting strange today. Does he already know about Xiao Xiao?"

Bai Xiaochu bit her lip lightly, her hands under the table unsure of what to do.

Both of them were thinking about how to start the conversation, and they looked at each other with a tacit understanding.

The moment their eyes met, they looked away in perfect unison.

"Son, why aren't you saying anything today? (Xiaobai, are you feeling unwell?)"

Liu Minghui and Jiang Yun noticed something was wrong with their son/daughter.

"No." *2

Fang Chusheng and Bai Xiaochu spoke in unison.

"You two have pretty good chemistry."

Jiang Yun smiled.

"Who can argue with that? These two kids have known each other since elementary school, which is over ten years now."

Liu Minghui liked Bai Xiaochu very much, but felt that her son was not good enough for her.

"It's been twelve years in total, plus the next four years of university, that's a full sixteen years."

Jiang Yun looked on with emotion, she never imagined that her daughter would attend the same school as her neighbor's son for sixteen years.

This was just normal conversation, but Bai Xiaochu blushed and stood up, saying, "Mom, I'm going to the restroom."

"Could Xiaobai really know?"

Fang Chusheng rested his chin on his hand, deep in thought.

The food was served quickly today; in no time, the table was full of dishes.

Lao Fang and Lao Bai were old friends who used to drink together every month. Later, Lao Fang's project moved to another city, and they lost touch.

It's a rare occasion for us to get together today, and without a doubt, both men got quite drunk.

They talk about everything, from national affairs to trivial matters like a clogged toilet at home.

Liu Minghui and Jiang Yun looked helpless, thinking to themselves: This is what men are like after drinking.

Of course, they didn't urge them to drink. The two families were acquaintances, and the place was local with a lot of friends.

Fang Chusheng and Bai Xiaochu barely spoke, eating beef while listening to their fathers brag.

Suddenly, they noticed that their father's chat style was a bit off, ranging from national affairs to their future.

"Old Bai, what do you think of my son?"

"Your son is just like you, what else can you do?"

"Damn it! I'm just asking you, is he even good enough for your daughter?"

"He's not worthy of it!"

"Fuck you! Don't make me slap you."

"Damn it, you want to marry my daughter? You're not getting a chance without a million dollars."

"A mere million? You're fucking looking down on my son, Fang Tianmiao!"

"Alright, I'll be waiting."

"..."

The conversation sent shivers down the spines of the four people present.

Both children were raised by their parents, but they felt it was too hasty to discuss marriage like this.

Fang Chusheng never expected that the biggest obstacle preventing him from dating in his life would be Lao Fang.

He looked at Bai Xiaochu, whose face was flushed and who kept her head down without saying a word.

Bai Xiaochu's mind is now filled with the future Fang Xiaoxiao talked about: marrying Fang Chusheng, having children, and doing all sorts of things.

Thinking of this, her body trembled, and she subconsciously stood up from her seat.

"Clang!"

The sound of a chair falling over rang out.

Instantly, the private room fell completely silent.

"Doesn't your daughter like Xiao Fang?"

Jiang Yun frowned; she had assumed her daughter and Fang Chusheng had a good relationship.

"Sigh... Xiaobai clearly doesn't like this unfilial son."

Liu Minghui sighed inwardly.

"Uh... Xiaobai doesn't actually know about my past life, does he?"

Fang Chusheng clenched his fist and glanced at Bai Xiaochu.

"How embarrassing! What should I do?"

Bai Xiaochu dared not move.

"Huh? Why is everyone so quiet?"

Fang Tianmiao asked vaguely.

"Never mind them, let's drink it ourselves! Where were we?"

Bai Haijiang raised his glass and hooked his arm around Lao Bai's shoulder.

"Yes, yes, when are our two families going to have the wedding?"

Fang Tianmiao reeked of alcohol.

"I...I'm going to the restroom."

Bai Xiaochu looked embarrassed and hurriedly left.

"Mom, Aunt Jiang, I'm going to check on Xiaobai."

Fang Chusheng followed him out.

Bai Xiaochu did indeed go to the restroom.

Fang Chusheng didn't have the courage to go in, so he could only wait outside.

Ten minutes later, Bai Xiaochu came out of the bathroom. She washed her face and gradually calmed down.

She hadn't expected Fang Chusheng to be at the door, and her face inexplicably flushed. She wanted to run away, but didn't know where to go.

"Little White, want to go for a walk?"

Fang Chusheng decided to take the initiative, just like he took Xiaobai to the Aegean Hotel in his previous life.

"Um."

Bai Xiaochu didn't refuse; she also wanted to talk to her childhood sweetheart alone.

The two did not leave immediately, but made a sound as they headed to the private room.

Although Liu Minghui and Jiang Yun were puzzled, they did not intend to interfere too much in the children's affairs.

After leaving the Tianyuan Mingdu Hotel, Fang Chusheng originally intended to take Bai Xiaochu to the nearest Sanqiao Park.

He had only taken a couple of steps when he remembered that the area around Sanqiao Park was still wasteland and would not be completed for another three to five years.

Therefore, he could only take Bai Xiaochu to the riverside park at the foot of the historically significant Bailong Mountain.

Before short videos became popular, the parks in small counties were quite lively, with various roadside stalls all around.

Are you hungry?

Fang Chusheng asked.

They didn't eat much at Tianyuan Mingdu.

"A little."

Bai Xiaochu touched her flat stomach.

"I'll go buy it."

Fang Chusheng immediately went to various stalls.

Although parents said the roadside stalls from 2013 and 2014 were unclean, they were natural, healthy and pollution-free compared to those ten years later.

Here, you won't find gutter oil, chicken bone paste, lymph node meat filling, or adulterated soy milk.

Fang Chusheng bought some local specialties from Bailong County, including lamp-shaped plates, lean meat balls, and some barbecue.

"I can't eat that much."

Bai Xiaochu didn't expect Fang Chusheng to buy so many.

Students in those days would buy barbecue skewers one at a time, spending only a few yuan at a time.

"It's okay, I'll eat the rest."

Fang Chusheng's consumption habits haven't adjusted to reflect his future.

The two sat on a park bench, eating and chatting, mostly about things from their childhood.

"Um... Fang."

Bai Xiaochu suddenly looked up at Fang Chusheng.

"Um?"

Fang Chusheng put down the barbecue he was holding.

"Phew!..." Bai Xiaochu let out a long breath, her face serious. "If, and I mean if, someone told you she came from the future, would you believe it?"
