Tianxin feels immense guilt over Brother Yang's injuries, believing her clinginess is the cause. Despite her regrets and fear, Brother Yang reassures her that he has no regrets about being with her. They share a tender moment, and later, while walking in the park, Tianxin expresses her desire to have children with him, but he suggests waiting a few years.

"I don't mean it that way. I mean you're still young, there's no rush to have children. You can have them in a few years." Huo Ziyang quickly clarified, concerned she might misunderstand and ignore him once more.

His greatest fear was her disregard, and now, every single moment he spent with her was incredibly precious!

"But you're not young anymore. People your age are already fathers! I can't let you fall behind!" Tianxin stated seriously.

Brother Ziyang had already waited for her for so many years; she couldn't make him wait any longer.

She wanted to give him children, to prevent others from mocking him for not having any.

His peers had all become fathers, yet Brother Ziyang hadn't, all because of her.

She couldn't allow Brother Ziyang to lag behind any further; she was determined to give him many children!

"Are you implying I'm old?" Huo Ziyang playfully inquired, deeply touched by Tianxin's words.

She was already thinking so far ahead; this little girl was truly endearing~

"That's not what I meant! How could you misunderstand me!" Tianxin pouted.

"I'm just teasing. Don't be upset. How about I braid your hair?" Huo Ziyang offered, attempting to soothe her.

"Okay!" Tianxin smiled and nodded.

The two conversed cheerfully as Huo Ziyang braided Tianxin's hair.

From a distance, Yangyang observed them, feeling a pang of unease despite his strong desire to see her.

However, he found himself unable to take a step forward, unwilling to disrupt their apparent happiness.

He had only recently learned about everything Tianxin had endured. Did she truly love Huo Ziyang that profoundly?

She had even jumped off a building, fearing nothing for Huo Ziyang's sake...

The revelation shocked him, yet he could no longer bring himself to interfere with their relationship.

So long as she was happy, that was all that mattered. Her joy brought him happiness too!

At the Huo Family's ancestral home, Tian Xingyun reclined on the bed while Huo Shaohua gently applied medication to her back.

"Be careful!" Tian Xingyun winced in pain, her hands tightly clutching the bedsheets.

"Once that girl, Tianxin, has recovered, we'll send her abroad!" Huo Shaohua declared angrily, his application of the medicine surprisingly gentle.

"What do you mean by that?!" Tian Xingyun abruptly sat up, turning to face him.

"I do not approve of them being together!" Huo Shaohua stated plainly, making it clear he would not consent to Ziyang and Tianxin's union.

"And why not?!"

"Ziyang is already quite advanced in years. How can he possibly be with Tianxin?"

"I find Ziyang to be quite a suitable match. I wouldn't feel secure entrusting my daughter to anyone else!"

"I strongly disagree!"

"Whether you agree or not, you will have to accept it. Would you feel secure if Tianxin married someone else?"

"Certainly not." Huo Shaohua was rendered speechless by her statement.

Truthfully, he would indeed be insecure about marrying Tianxin off to just anyone.

He possessed only this one cherished daughter, and he simply couldn't bring himself to trust unfamiliar individuals with taking his precious child away.

After careful consideration, Ziyang alone seemed dependable; he was someone he knew intimately.

Marrying her to Ziyang would bring him peace of mind, but his daughter was still so young, and Ziyang was already in his thirties. How could they possibly be together!

When Ziyang eventually grew old, Tianxin would still be young. He pondered if she would eventually come to regret it.

If Ziyang were to pass away first, who would then care for Tianxin?

These were grave concerns that warranted meticulous deliberation!

"Then simply consent to their union. You wouldn't want Tianxin to face any danger again, would you?" Tian Xingyun implored.

She was genuinely frightened, terrified of her daughter resorting to further self-destructive actions.

Even though Tianxin insisted she hadn't jumped, her actions were still undeniably perilous!

"I refuse!" Huo Shaohua stated with unwavering resolve. Despite extensive deliberation, he remained opposed to Ziyang and Tianxin's relationship.

The reason was simply the substantial disparity in their ages.

"Get out!" Tian Xingyun exclaimed, grabbing a pillow and flinging it at Huo Shaohua, her fury erupting!
