Just then, the commercial break ended and a new variety show "Where are we going, dad?" started airing.
The little boy inside the program was exceptionally cute, his words novel and refreshing, delighting Song Xiangsi. "He's adorable!" she commented.
Towards the end of the show, she exclaimed, "I hope my child would be this cute!"

Song Xiangsi shook her head, indicating him to to answer his call.
Xu Jiamu swiped the phone screen and placed the phone by his ear. "Princess Lin, what can I do for you?"
"Brother Jiamu, my father will be back from Beijing tomorrow afternoon, as my fiance, you should come over for a meal..."
Ever since the start of the year after they had verbally initiated the engagement, Lin Qianqian had been calling him her fiance.

Was Xu Jiamu going to visit his father-in-law tomorrow?
Just a moment ago, she had naively wanted to ask what if she was pregnant? Were they going to marry or would she have to get an abortion?
There must be something wrong with her. After just a few days of care and concern, she thought that he had fallen for her.
Song Xiangsi stared at the balcony, her expression turning glazed.
