Xu Tingyu nodded when she heard Tian Yi voluntarily mention Youyou. "Yeah, what mother doesn't miss her child?"
Her voice sounded so sorrowful that it successfully aroused Tian Yi's sympathy.
Tian Yi sat down in the seat in front of her and then reached out her hand to cover Xu Tingyu's.
"Why don't you talk to Sir and have the child brought to your side?"
"With your good financial condition, it's so easy to raise a child."
"Is it because Sir doesn't like children?"
Maybe because Xu Tingyu was so easy - going, Tian Yi became a bit outspoken.
Actually, ever since Tian Yi started complaining about Zhang Wan, Xu Tingyu knew that Tian Yi could be on her side.
Although she herself didn't know why she needed someone on her side. It seemed to be an unconscious choice.
But even without figuring it out, she had already taken this step.
"You also think he doesn't like children?"
Instead of directly affirming Tian Yi's words, she gave a sad smile and murmured the rhetorical question.
The light was dim. With her head bowed, she looked so vulnerable that even the cold - hearted would feel pity for her.
Tian Yi already liked Xu Tingyu very much. Because of Zhang Wan's matter, she was anxious and angry for Xu Tingyu. So hearing this, she felt even more heartache.
"Madam, don't blame me for being talkative. Although I haven't been here long, I always feel that Sir is a bit strange."
"Of course, he is really good to you. So good that it's indescribable. It feels like if you asked him to pick the stars in the sky for you, he would be willing."
"Logically speaking, since your relationship is so good, he should value the child in your belly more."
"When I was pregnant, my husband attached great importance to it. He always gave me the best. Every day after work, he would first touch the baby."
"And since he knew I was pregnant, he flipped through dictionaries to pick a name for the child. He came up with dozens of names, both formal and pet names."
"But I've never seen Sir do these things. Although he always says that you're pregnant and need to pay more attention, it seems that he cares more about you rather than the child itself."
"Of course, I also know that some men are jealous of their children. Maybe it's because his relationship with you is so good that he thinks the child is making you suffer."
After expressing her thoughts, Tian Yi added a couple of sentences for explanation.
After all, as a nanny, taking Qi Ye's salary and yet trying to sow discord between Madam and him behind his back was really inappropriate.
But she just felt angry for Madam and the child in her belly.
When Madam was sick yesterday, she was there taking care of her and heard with her own ears Sir tell the doctor that when using medicine, priority should be given to Madam's body.
At first glance, this didn't seem wrong. It was a husband caring about his wife.
But as a mother herself, she just felt something was off.
This wasn't a serious illness where they had to make a choice between the two. If Sir really cared about Madam's body, he shouldn't hurt the child in her belly.
After all, if something happened to the child, wouldn't it be like taking the mother's life?
Moreover, she had been watching ancient dramas before going to bed recently. In those dramas, it was said that in wealthy and prominent families, the first child, the legitimate eldest son, was highly regarded.
The legitimate eldest son would inherit everything from the family.
The Qi family's relationship seemed quite complicated. Did Qi Ye not want his first child to be born to Xu Tingyu?
After all, Xu Tingyu and Qi Shifeng once had a child.
Any man would probably have a knot in his heart about this.
Most importantly, Qi Ye and Zhang Wan seemed to have an unclear relationship. Did the two of them have some kind of agreement?
Maybe Qi Ye promised Zhang Wan that although he wouldn't marry her, his first child wouldn't be born to Xu Tingyu?
However, after this wild speculation, Tian Yi thought she had gone crazy from watching TV dramas.
Sir and Madam had such a good relationship. How could there be so many things going on?
It was just that this Zhang Wan must be up to something.
So she didn't dare to tell Xu Tingyu these thoughts. She could only hint at Zhang Wan's matter.
Madam must have sensed something too. Otherwise, she wouldn't have voluntarily brought up the child's matter.
After hearing Tian Yi's words, Xu Tingyu's doubts deepened.
It seemed that it wasn't just her illusion.
She had felt before that Qi Ye didn't like this child. At least, he didn't have any sense of anticipation.
Even though he pretended very well. He would ask her every day if she had any pregnancy discomforts, take her for a walk after meals, and have the kitchen prepare meals for pregnant women.
But there was, well, how to put it, a sense of distance towards this child.
Just as Tian Yi said just now, he had never voluntarily proposed to pick a name for the child. He only said that he would support whatever Xu Tingyu decided.
But he really cared about her in every detail. Since she woke up from amnesia, no matter how repulsive she was towards him, he had never gotten angry.
If he loved her so much, how could he not love the child in her belly?
And Qi Shifeng said that this child was his...
What on earth was going on here?
Xu Tingyu had even more doubts in her heart, but she didn't show it.
Even more, fearing that Tian Yi might show something in front of Qi Ye, she even defended Qi Ye. "Maybe it's his first time being a father, and he hasn't gotten into the role yet."
These words made Tian Yi feel a bit guilty.
Right, Madam had a son, and Sir could still be so good to her. Their relationship must be fine.
What was she thinking about?
Thankfully, Madam didn't mind her.
"By the way, Tian Yi, I remember you said your daughter is also studying in Kyoto, right?"
On the way back to the room, Xu Tingyu suddenly asked Tian Yi.
Mentioning her daughter, Tian Yi beamed with joy. "Yes, in Kyoto. She'll be a senior soon. She has good grades. Unlike me and her father."
Xu Tingyu nodded. "Does she have any plans for a job? Or is she going to prepare for post - graduate entrance exams?"
Tian Yi still had a big smile on her face.
"She said she'll prepare for both. If she gets in, she'll continue her studies. If not, she'll look for a job. She said she's going to take the civil service exam."
"This child has her own ideas and never makes me and her father worry."
Xu Tingyu asked a couple more questions about her major and then suddenly said, "Hey, it makes me think of my school days. Why don't you ask her to add me on WeChat?"
"After all, I'm someone who has been through it. Whether she's taking the post - graduate exam or looking for a job, if she has any questions, she can ask me."
"I also went to university in Kyoto. I'll see if there are any suitable teachers I can recommend to her."
After a long detour, Xu Tingyu finally stated her purpose.
Now, she needed someone in Kyoto.
But she didn't know who to contact.
After all, what she needed was someone completely innocent, someone who knew nothing about her past.
And then have this person gradually find out about her past.
Tian Yi's daughter might not be the best choice, but she had no other options. She could only try to get in touch first.
