Kang Li's water broke unexpectedly at home, sparking a frantic rush to the hospital as Luo Yanqing carried her and Jiang Boya drove. Amid family anxiety outside the delivery room, she gave birth to healthy triplets: two boys and a surprise girl, all remarkably developed despite their small size. Luo Yanqing remained by her side as she rested, waking in the evening to discuss informing the family back home.

"Scrub them clean, rinse them multiple times, or else the kids won’t be comfy wearing them after they dry."

The moment Luo Yanqing uttered those words, Jiang Boya’s expression twisted immediately.

That explained why they had barred him from washing the diapers earlier—they doubted his ability to clean them right!

This wretched son-in-law, truly looking down on him!

Spotting the shift in Jiang Boya’s demeanor, Luo Yanqing shot him a look: "Mr. Jiang, got a problem with me?" At those words, Jiang Boya huffed: "I offered to wash diapers for Bun and the rest before, but were you scared I couldn’t get them clean, so you stopped me?"

Luo Yanqing paused briefly before replying: "I simply didn’t wish to burden Mr. Jiang. You’re an elder, after all, and handling diapers falls to me as the father."

Official names for the three infants remained undecided, but soon after Kang Li recovered from childbirth, she picked their nicknames herself, something Luo Yanqing fully supported.

In their intimate moments, he even commended Kang Li for selecting such lovely nicknames full of depth.

Truth be told, Luo Yanqing cared little about whether they sounded nice or carried meaning; his goal was just to sweet-talk his wife.

Still, Bun, Tangyuan, and Guoguo suited the trio perfectly—charming, meaningful, and wonderfully grounded.

"Remember, I’m still the grandfather to Bun and the others. Shouldn’t I step up to wash some diapers for my precious grandkids?"

Jiang Boya grumbled as he vigorously scrubbed the diapers.

"Xiao Li hasn’t accepted you yet, Mr. Jiang." Luo Yanqing’s remark struck Jiang Boya hard; his hands halted, sensing this infuriating son-in-law was jabbing straight at his sore spot. He clamped his lips, fell quiet for a beat, then said: "I’ve got something to share."

Luo Yanqing stayed silent, allowing Jiang Boya’s words to sink in: "Since you’re aware Lili hasn’t recognized me as her dad, you must understand her background fully."

"And?"

Luo Yanqing cast a quick, impassive glance at Jiang Boya, his face betraying nothing.

"I admit I’ve been a lousy father. Though Lili’s grandfather dragged me overseas against my will back then, I did hurt her birth mother deeply by getting her pregnant...

Afterward, because of troubles at home, I lost contact with Lili’s birth mother, leading to more than twenty years without doing a single fatherly thing,

not even knowing Lili got abandoned by her birth mother right after birth... Luckily, fate smiled on Lili, and adoptive parents found her..."

Luo Yanqing cut in softly before he finished: "To Xiao Li, my father- and mother-in-law are her true parents."

"..." Jiang Boya gave a wry smile: "I get it... but Lili’s my only child in this life. How could I not claim my daughter? Can you see where I’m coming from?"

"Does it matter that much?"

Luo Yanqing eyed Jiang Boya intently for a second, his voice casual: "Stop circling, just spit it out."

"I want to speak with Lili’s parents, and I hope you’ll stand by them then."

Upon hearing this from Jiang Boya, Luo Yanqing’s elegant lips tightened a bit; he locked eyes with him for a prolonged stare, then asked: "You’ve made up your mind?"

Pondering if his in-laws could handle learning their daughter’s real origins from this man.

"Yes."

Jiang Boya nodded firmly.

Luo Yanqing: "I’ll have to check with my wife first."

"No." Jiang Boya objected: "I know Lili’s stance perfectly, and here’s my plan: once I disclose her origins to her parents, if they reject it outright, I won’t push. But if you clue Lili in now, how’s that helpful for her?"

Luo Yanqing remained quiet.

"Lili’s still recovering from childbirth."

Jiang Boya pointed out.

"Dropping this on my in-laws directly would shock them too much."

Recalling how Captain Kang and Cai Xiufen cherished Kang Li, and imagining their faces upon discovering their darling daughter had her bio dad under the same roof for over half a year, Luo Yanqing furrowed his brow:

"My in-laws adore Xiao Li; she’s their flesh and blood in every way. I’d bet even the rest of the Yue family doesn’t realize Xiao Li isn’t truly Kang blood.

With you suddenly appearing as her bio dad, can you promise my in-laws won’t spiral into doubts?"
