“You must be hungry. Come and eat.” Grandpa Li noticed that everyone was standing at the door chatting with his grandson and granddaughter-in-law.

He couldn’t help but interrupt, as their food would get cold if they continued talking.

This meal had just been heated by Aunt Chen when she saw their car arrive, and it would have to be reheated again if they delayed any longer.

“Grandpa, we’re back.” Li Zhao, holding An Hao’s hand, went over to greet Grandpa Li.

“Mhm, go greet your maternal grandparents too.” Li Changshan was very happy that his grandson and granddaughter-in-law greeted him first.

However, he couldn’t forget that his old war buddy was also here.

Moreover, his granddaughter-in-law was his old war buddy’s granddaughter.

“Maternal grandparents, we’re back.” Li Zhao originally intended to hold An Hao’s hand and greet her grandparents together.

But just as he was about to step forward, he saw Xiao Jingfeng giving him a look.

So, he changed direction and greeted his own grandpa first before greeting his maternal grandparents.

“Good, it’s good that you’re back.” Grandma Xiao patted An Hao’s hand and said.

“Grandma, I missed you.” An Hao affectionately said to her grandmother.

“You silly girl, don’t say you missed me. If you really did, you would have come back to see me sooner.

If you hadn’t gotten pregnant, would you have even thought of coming back?” Grandma Xiao scolded her granddaughter.

“Grandma, I’m back now, so can you please stop being mad at me?” An Hao playfully shook her grandmother’s arm.

“You’re so grown up and you’re still using that trick.” Grandma Xiao was amused by An Hao’s actions and laughed.

With her grandmother now laughing, An Hao then greeted her uncles and aunts.

After Li Zhao and An Hao had greeted everyone, they finally sat down to eat.

It was supposed to be a happy meal, but as soon as An Hao caught a whiff of the dishes, she ran to the bathroom and vomited.

Everyone stopped eating, looking at each other as they noticed that her pregnancy symptoms had kicked in.

In the end, Aunt Chen served a bowl of plain porridge and some pickled cucumbers, which An Hao managed to eat a little of.

Once An Hao started eating, everyone picked up their chopsticks and resumed their meal.

Those who had been married before knew what An Hao was going through, so no one made a big fuss about it.

The meal was finished amidst laughter and lively conversation.

After dinner, they sat in the living room to chat.

“Zhaozi, why didn’t you come back after you were discharged from the army? Instead, you took An’an so far away.” Mrs. Li scolded her son.

“Mom, what could I do if I came back? I’m doing what I love over there, and I think it’s great.” Li Zhao was frustrated just talking about it.

Everyone in the family wanted him to return to the Imperial Capital, but what could he do if he came back?

He didn’t want to rely on his family connections; he wanted to do what he loved based on his own abilities.

He enjoyed the feeling, but why did his mom have to bring it up again? He knew he was going to be the target of everyone’s criticism soon.

“Exactly, Zhaozi. It would be great if you came back to the Imperial Capital since the whole family is here. Now that you’ve taken An’an so far away, it’s hard for us to even see each other.” The Xiaos’ eldest daughter-in-law chimed in.

Li Zhao knew this would be the outcome.

After everyone had their say, Li Zhao finally spoke up.

“I know you all mean well, but I want to give it my all with my own capabilities.

Whether it turns out to be good or bad, at least I’ve tried my best.

When I look back in the future, I won’t have any regrets. As for An’an, I won’t let her suffer or struggle. I can provide her a good life.

So uncles, aunts, please rest assured, Li Zhao is not a coward. I’ll definitely make something of myself.”

Everyone had talked for so long, but Li Zhao didn’t budge on his decision to return to the Imperial Capital.

In the end, they all helplessly stopped talking, thinking it best to let everyone live their lives in their own way..
