Fated to My Billionaire Husband

And so, enveloped in his pervasive masculine scent, she slowly drifted off into dreamland…

Waking up the next morning, she was surprised to find Ruan Tianling still sleeping beside her.

Usually, by the time she woke up, he had long since left.

It was a rare sight to see him sleeping in.

Sitting up and barely slipping her feet into her slippers, the man behind her also awakened.

“Morning.” He greeted her dryly as he rose, to which she replied with a start, “Morning.”

At breakfast, the whole family ate together. Ever since Yan Yue returned, he had ceased to have any meals at home.

His sudden joint breakfast with the family today took everyone by surprise, and they were delighted.

The gloom that had pervaded Ruan Anguo’s face for days also significantly lifted.

“Tianling, after breakfast, take Yufei to the hospital for a checkup, okay?”

Ruan Tianling glanced at Jian Yufei and nodded in agreement, “Yes, Grandfather.”

“Also, both of you should get a checkup. You’ve both been living here for over a month, and Yufei still isn’t pregnant. Go check to see if there’s an issue with either of you.”

*Cough, cough*… As Jian Yufei was drinking soy milk, the choke-coaxing words found their way into her throat.

Didn’t Grandpa know that she wasn’t pregnant possibly because they didn’t want children?

Ruan Tianling also exhibited a hint of embarrassment and helplessness.

It seemed as though the old man didn’t notice their expressions; he continued, “Tianling, you’re twenty-seven, aren’t you? That’s not young anymore. Have a child while you’re still youthful. If you wait any longer, I’m afraid I won’t live to see the day.”

The aging fatigue was evident on the old man’s face as he spoke.

Ruan Anguo was already in his seventies, and people his age lived day by day.

Even though he may seem healthy now, you never knew when he could depart from this world…

At the thought of this, Jian Yufei’s eyes filled with unshed tears, “Grandpa, don’t say such things; I’m sure you’ll live to a ripe old age.”

Ruan Tianling also comforted him, “Grandpa, I’m sure you’ll live to see your great-grandchild.”

The old man remained silent, causing the atmosphere at the dining table to turn somewhat somber.

After breakfast, Ruan Tianling requested Jian Yufei to accompany him to the hospital for a checkup. She didn’t want to go with him, but he gave her no chance to refuse and headed straight for the door to wait for her.

Jia Yufei hesitated, eventually giving in.

Upon reaching the hospital, after a period of silence, the doctor checked them and gave them some medicine.

Walking in the hospital garden, Jian Yufei, seeing the elderly taking a leisurely stroll, thought of Grandpa.

One day, Grandpa would surely leave her and this world…

“Ruan Tianling,” Jian Yufei suddenly called out to the man beside her.

“What is it?” He too halted, meeting her gaze.

“Are you still unwilling to tell me why Grandpa won’t agree to our divorce? Even if Grandpa likes me a lot, I don’t think he would want to see you suffer because of me.”

The man’s eyes flickered.

Jian Yufei could tell he was hiding something from her, “Tell me, what is the reason? If you don’t tell me, how am I supposed to cooperate with you to obtain a divorce?”

Ruan Tianling’s lips thinned, and a hint of profound knowledge flickered in his eyes.

“Speak, what is the actual reason?”

“Tianling!” A shrill voice suddenly broke the tense atmosphere between them.
