Shen Wanzhi was likewise choked by this.
"Is she crazy?"
"She certainly has plenty of energy. She's dead set on setting Xie Fei up with you."
"She's being ridiculous. Xie Fei would never like a woman who already has a child, and the Xie family would never accept it. My only fear is that she'll make such a scene that my secret comes out."
Shen Wanzhi had even considered leaving Suzhou. Staying in Suzhou was simply too dangerous! Yet, if she moved to another city, she would have to work, and she wouldn't be able to care for her child if she got sick and needed to take time off. In Suzhou, she at least had her cousin to help out, and during school breaks, she could send the child to stay with her parents. Besides, her current job had not come easily, and she didn't want to just give it up. After much hesitation, Shen Wanzhi dismissed the idea. Unless it was absolutely necessary, she did not want to leave Suzhou.
Xie Ran returned home just as it was time for lunch. Xie Fei came down from upstairs and saw Xie Ran sitting on the dining chair, looking fuming. He was slightly stunned. "You just went out—who upset you?"
