Xinyan and her family discussed recent births and family matters. Su Aihong arrived, recounting a frustrating matchmaking attempt for her son, Han Chaohui, who insulted the potential bride. Han Chaohui explained the woman was only interested in his money and property, prompting his harsh comment. Later, Xinyan discerned Han Chaohui likes someone, and he confessed his feelings for a girl whose father wronged his own father years ago, creating an insurmountable family feud.

Xinyan grasped the situation; this young lady likely harbored feelings for the third brother as well. However, due to the animosity between their families, she had never dared to make a move.

Regarding the 'waiting' the third brother mentioned, it could either mean waiting for an opportune moment or waiting for her heart to give up.

The former seems more plausible, like waiting for fate to intervene, perhaps leading to a reconciliation between the two families one day.

The latter scenario would imply waiting for the third brother to marry someone else, at which point she would naturally have no choice but to relinquish her hopes.

Han Chaoyang turned his gaze to Xinyan, asking, "Yanyan, could you assist your third brother?"

Xinyan shifted her focus to Han Chaoyang, inquiring, "Are your uncle and aunt completely unaware of your relationship?"

Han Chaoyang confirmed with a nod.

Xinyan let out a heavy sigh, moistening her lips, "If you wish for progress, you can no longer keep this a secret. Moreover, my uncle and aunt are not the sort to hold grudges over such matters.

I understand your fear of upsetting them upon learning about your affection for that young lady, but you cannot postpone this conversation indefinitely.

How can you ascertain the outcome without even attempting? Do you not agree?"

She had a faint recollection of the details from her father previously. Had it not been for her uncle's shrewdness, Mr. Han's support, and some discreet assistance, her uncle might have truly been ruined by that individual.

Nevertheless, that person eventually faced repercussions. Not only was he stripped of his original position, but he was also reassigned and had endured a period of hardship for many years.

Despite this, given his family's influence, a transfer to another unit was arranged for him last year. Although it wasn't a significant post, it was a relatively relaxed one.

As for what would happen after the third brother discloses the truth, considering the broad-mindedness of her uncle and aunt, even if they were initially displeased, they would be unlikely to cause trouble for their own son.

The moment the couple returned from their outing, Aunt Su Aihong's voice reached them, extending an invitation, "For our little Fan Fan's hundred-day celebration, Uncle Gu and Aunt Gu, your presence is a must."

Old Madam Gu responded with a warm smile, "Rest assured, we will certainly be there."

Xinyan approached Su Aihong, asking, "Aunt, has my little nephew received a formal name yet?"

Su Aihong, beaming, replied, "Yes, your uncle bestowed upon him the name Han Feifan. What do you think?"

Upon hearing the name, Xinyan chuckled, "That's a wonderful name! It sounds grand and modern, and it flows beautifully."

Su Aihong, already overjoyed with her grandson, found Xinyan's compliment even more delightful, replying, "I do enjoy hearing that."

Suddenly, Su Aihong recalled something and whispered to Xinyan, "Yanyan, at the end of September, a notice was issued from the central government concerning population control, specifically addressing party members and youth league members, encouraging couples to have only one child. Do you and your husband intend to have more children soon?"

Her quick thinking, honed by her work at the Women's Federation, demonstrated a remarkably forward-thinking interpretation of policy.

However, He Jinxuan happened to be standing behind them and overheard Aunt Su Aihong's recent remark.

He cast a glance at Xinyan and softly stated, "Xinyan is still pursuing her studies, so we are not considering having children at the moment. If the policy does indeed change, we will simply adhere to it."

These words initially startled Su Aihong, but she quickly regained her composure, viewing He Jinxuan with increased respect, "Hmm, it's good that you have your own plans."

Tonight's dinner plans were unexpectedly altered by a phone call.

Upon hearing the news from the other end of the line, Han Chunxue was visibly distressed, exclaiming, "What did you say?"
