Seeing Ye Zhen spoiling their son, Lu Beichuan remained silent. He thought about Ye Zhen's previously strict and moral words about not spoiling their son rotten. He couldn't resist shaking his head and laughing.

Based on how Ye Zhen was behaving now, he would have to be the strict parent.

Just as he was about to return to his desk to continue his work, he heard Ye Zhen exclaim, "He peed?"

In a great commotion, Ye Zhen placed Zhouzhou down on the bed. She was flustered as she undid his diaper and saw that his diaper was wet.

Lu Beichuan took out a diaper from the cabinet and handed it to Ye Zhen. He stood to the side and watched as Ye Zhen went about changing the diaper.

This was the first time that Ye Zhen was changing Zhouzhou's diaper. Although she didn't have any experience, she knew how to do it from watching other people many times. First, she took off the dirty diaper, then she wiped Zhouzhou's butt clean.

"Oh, you little brat. So you were just fussing because you peed." Ye Zhen patted his little butt and smiled as she teased him. Then, she put a clean diaper on him.

Seeing that Ye Zhen didn't have any problems, Lu Beichuan went back to his desk to finish off his paperwork. By the time he was done with the backlog of documents, Ye Zhen and the baby were already asleep.

Ye Zhen was lying on her side next to Zhouzhou, and her hand was partially resting on Zhouzhou. Zhouzhou's legs and arms were splayed out like a starfish as he slept. Seeing the sight, Lu Beichuan felt as if the day's fatigue had instantly vanished. He leaned over and kissed Ye Zhen's forehead. Instead of picking Zhouzhou up and bringing him to the nursery next door, he left the room by himself and told the nanny that the baby would be sleeping with them tonight. After that, he came back to the room to sleep.

***

In the middle of the night, Ye Zhen was woken up by the baby's cries. It was around 2 to 3 AM, and she had been in the deepest part of her sleep cycle. Being woken up at this time meant she inevitably felt alarmed for a moment.

Ye Zhen furrowed her brow. Half-awake and half-asleep, she opened her eyes. Under the dim lighting, she could only see Lu Beichuan and Zhouzhou by the bed. Lu Beichuan was holding Zhouzhou in one arm and feeding Zhouzhou milk with his other hand.

Ye Zhen sat up. Her voice was hazy with sleep as she asked, "What happened? Is Zhouzhou hungry?"

Lu Beichuan looked at her and quietly said, "Go back to sleep. Zhouzhou will fall asleep immediately after he finishes drinking milk."

Ye Zhen yawned. Rubbing her eyes, she forced herself to get up. Looking at the baby that was drinking infant formula, she said, "Let's have him sleep in the nursery tomorrow night."

Who could endure waking up every night to feed this little ancestor?

"It's okay. He's almost done drinking."

Ye Zhen didn't insist. She went back to bed, lied down, and watched Lu Beichuan's focused look as he held the baby and fed him. She smiled. Her sleepiness had faded a lot.

After finishing feeding the baby milk and coaxing him back to sleep, Lu Beichuan finally came back to bed and put the baby between him and Ye Zhen. His gaze was gentle as he looked at Ye Zhen. "Sleep."

The scent of milk wafted into her nose, and Lu Beichuan was close by. Her mind felt at ease, and she suddenly felt warmth flowing through her heart.

Actually, days like these were pretty good.

In the following days, the Lu household was swamped with work. It was all for Lu's great-grandson's first lunar birthday. Mrs. Lu had also specially hired staff from a hotel to come help out. Inside the event hall set up on the lawn, there were cute pictures of Zhouzhou everywhere.

Of course, these photos were taken after Zhouzhou had become adorable.

On the morning of Zhouzhou's birthday celebration, there was an unending flow of luxury cars arriving in front of Lu's villa. There were countless people coming and going. All these guests knew that the invitations had been handwritten by Old Master Lu, so of course, they treated this celebration with great importance.

Old Master Lu was all smiles today. He brought Lu Beichuan with him as he talked with his old friends in the event hall.

Mrs. Lu looked graceful and poised in her expensive clothing. She brought Ye Zhen along with her to chat with the ladies in the side hall.

Of course, they hadn't brought Zhouzhou out with them. With so many people around, it was too noisy. Mrs. Lu was worried an accident might happen, so she ordered a servant to stay in the nursery to keep guard.

"Old Lu, congratulations, you gained a great-grandson!"

Old Master Lu hadn't been able to stop smiling all morning. Seeing the old friend that came over to congratulate him, he said, "You old rascal, you finally came. If you're jealous, have your granddaughter find a good man and get married."

Shen Weiyin came towards them from the inner part of the villa. Standing behind Old Master Shen, she politely smiled and greeted, "Hi Grandpa Lu."

Old Master Lu looked over Shen Weiyin and sighed. "There's truly no telling how a girl will look when she grows up. It hasn't even been that long and Weiyin has grown up to be so beautiful, unlike me, I've gotten so old."

Shen Weiyin gave a smile that was appropriate to the occasion. "Grandpa Lu, you haven't gotten old. You're the same as before. You're still full of energy and in good health. Nothing has changed."

She was wearing a white dress and light makeup, looking very low-key.

But a woman like her, even if she wasn't wearing a lot of makeup and standing in a crowd, was still very eye-catching.

Old Master Lu loudly laughed. His face looked kind. "Old Shen, your granddaughter is as likeable and pleasing as before. Alright, your aunts are in the side hall. You should go over there to chat with them. It's boring for you to stay here and talk with old people."

Shen Weiyin nodded. "Then, I'll be leaving first. Grandpa Lu, Beichuan, see you later."

Lu Beichuan remained expressionless, but Old Master Lu smiled and said, "Old Shen, you're so lucky. You have such a beautiful and outstanding granddaughter."

Old Master Shen thoughtfully nodded. Seeming to have other unspoken thoughts, he sighed. "Weiyin is pretty and outstanding, but there's still no one she's interested in. I'm worried about that."

"Why? No one is suitable?"

"I found a few suitable young men, but Weiyin didn't like any of them. As soon as I mention this, she'll say she's busy and doesn't have time. She's almost thirty. How can I not be anxious?"

"This type of thing can't be rushed. Look at Beichuan, no matter how much I tried to force him to settle down, it didn't work. But look at him now, in one year, not only has he gotten married, he also has a child now." Old Master Lu smiled. "Stop worrying about it. A child has to be responsible for her own life."

However, Old Master Shen glared at him. "It's easy for you to say that. In hindsight, I should have pushed Weiyin to marry into your family. If I had done that, I wouldn't be worrying now."

Old Master Lu glared back at his old friend and bluntly criticized him, "Old man, have you gotten muddled-headed in old age? Is marriage something that you can force? If two people don't like each other, there's nothing you can do about it. Even if you try to force them together, it won't work. That sort of thing, it depends on fate."

Old Master Lu thought his friend was just joking because he was worried, so he wasn't too concerned about it. However, Lu Beichuan's gaze lingered on Old Master Shen, and he upped his vigilance.
