The Long-awaited Mr Han

They were dissatisfied with Xia Qingwei for two reasons—apart from their initial disapproval, they were also reluctant to admit their mistakes now.

Plus, Xia Qingwei had been married once and had brought her daughter into her marriage with Wang Juhuai. According to Lin Jinshu, Wang Juhuai even treated that child like his biological daughter and loved her dearly.

They'd thought it'd be hard for Xia Qingwei to conceive again at her age.

And Wang Juhuai had to take care of her and some other man's child. Wasn't it a massive loss?

Wang Juhuai's own child couldn't experience this treatment, yet someone else unrelated to him benefited from it?

Hence, Wang Taihong and Lu Wenqing were particularly displeased with Xia Qingwei.

Hearing Wang Juhuai now lessened their degree of dissatisfaction somewhat.

This Xia Qingwei still knew what's important and was reasonable.

Her giving birth to a son was why they traveled here.

But that was the extent of their appeasement.

To them, if it wasn't for him marrying Xia Qingwei, Wang Juhuai wouldn't be facing difficulties when it came to having children.

It'd be easy for Wang Juhuai to marry a younger woman, and he wouldn't need to worry about having children.

What "put her life on the line to give him a child?" It's because she's old!

Giving Wang Juhuai a child was her duty.

Wang Juhuai only said that to put in a good word for her, to show that Xia Qingwei sacrificed a lot.

But Wang Taihong and Lu Wenqing thought this was what Xia Qingwei was supposed to do. No one forced her to.

If she didn't marry Wang Juhuai, she needn't have done it.

She merely did it for her own benefit, to solidify her position in the family.

What's touching about this?

Wang Juhuai could be said to know his parents inside out.

He knew his words couldn't change much about them.

They were just like this.

Wang Jugu clearly inherited their character.

Wang Juhuai's had a totally different temperament from them most likely because of where he grew up.

He'd learned the violin from Xia Qingwei's father. As someone who raised someone like Xia Qingwei, her father was clearly a senior deserving of love and respect.

When he went overseas afterward, he was accepted as a disciple of the violin maestro Herdel and was practically raised by him.

He was taught by Herdel.

Many of his morals and views on life were Herdel's influence.

Moreover, he grew alongside music and art, molding him into a different person from his parents and brother.

"I'm not expecting you to change your attitude towards Qingwei just because of my words. But I hope you'll remember that she just gave birth and nearly died for me. She's still in confinement, and you know how important that time is to women," Wang Juhuai said.

"I'm not begging you to be enthusiastic towards her, but at the very least, don't upset her."

Wang Juhuai was high-strung, anxious, and worried throughout Xia Qingwei's whole pregnancy journey.

The most difficult part was over, yet he didn't relax.

As he'd seen many cases of post-partum depression.

Thus, Lu Man came daily to accompany Xia Qingwei and relieve her boredom.

He was also thinking of ways to keep Xia Qingwei happy and not let her feel exhausted from looking after the baby.

So that she could maintain her happiness and go through the confinement period healthily.
