Chapter 1257: Jiang Yuning Took the Driving License Test

“Is your brain not working?” Yan Lv almost had a heart attack. “You’re so young. How can you have a kid without knowing who the father is? Do you even know this guy”

“He doesn’t know about the baby, and I don’t want him to. The last thing I want to worry about is a custody battle,” said Yan Su in a low voice. “Dad, I’m already four months pregnant. I can’t get an abortion now.”

“You decided to come here now so we couldn’t force you into an abortion. You did that on purpose, right?” Jiang Peiying was so disappointed. “You are beyond bold. You ran away from home with a boy when you were eighteen and came back at twenty-two four months pregnant. Do you us to drop dead of a heart attack right here?”

Yan Su bit her lip, her face pale.

“I knew I shouldn’t have come back here. But if I waited a few years and showed up on your doorstep with my son or daughter, you might have found it harder to accept us. After the baby’s born, I’ll focus on my career. I don’t care if I ever get married.”

Jiang Peiying sighed, squatted and said, “Su, you’ve been through a lot. You don’t know what’s right. But you’ve made up your mind and there’s no going back. If you want to keep your baby, keep your baby. Having it here with us is better than going off and having it in secret. That would be hard. And who would look after you?”

Yan Su’s face was covered with tears.

“Dear…” Yan Lv glared at her harshly.

“Forget it.” Jiang Peiying waved her hand dismissively and said, “She will grow up step by step. She’s only twenty-two, still in her rebellious stage. You can’t expect her to be as mature as a thirty-year-old.”

Yan Lv stomped off angrily, muttering to himself.

“Get up. Kneeling isn’t good for the baby.” Jiang Peiying helped Yan Su up from the ground.

“Mom, I’m sorry. I always make you and Dad worry.” Yan Su held her and cried.

“Don’t cry,” said Jiang Peiying. “It’s not your fault. We didn’t raise you right. You’re having this baby. So, what about your work?”

“I’ve already made arrangements with my manager. I’ll go back a month after I gave birth,” said Yan Su. “I’m an adult now. I need to support myself.”

Jiang Peiying nodded. At that moment, Yan Jin started tugging at his mom’s and sister’s pant legs saying, “Mom, I’m gonna be an uncle?”

Jiang Peiying bent over, scooped up the little boy and said, “Yes, you’re going to be an uncle. Soon you have to help take good care of the baby.”

“Yay! I’m gonna have a friend,” said Yan Jin happily.

Jiang Peiying smiled wryly and said to Yan Su, “Your brother has been very precocious from the day he was born.”

Yan Su nodded. She could tell he was super smart. She was far less clever as a kid.

“I didn’t think I’d ever become an elder sister…”

Blus.h.i.+ng, Jiang Peiying said awkwardly, “After you left, your father and I were so upset. Our home was empty, so we decided to try to make another baby and to our surprise, we did it.”

Yan Su owed her parents a lot. I’ll make it up to them by being a good daughter. They will be so proud of me!

…

Xia City.

May. The peonies were in full bloom. All was well.

Jiang Yuning’s hands had nearly recovered.

Nine in the morning, he was at the Driving Test Center waiting to take his road test.

“What are you doing? I have the day off,”‘ Nian Xi called him.

“I’m taking my driving test,” said Jiang Yuning. “Today’s the road test.”

“When did you pa.s.s the written test?” Nian Xi was a little confused.

“Two weeks ago.”
