Chapter 1190 - 1187: Having a Child 6

The person’s face was already as radiant as a peach blossom, their eyes dreamy, and their long eyelashes like the cicada wings emerging in the early summer morning, gently swaying snow-white arms.

He held his breath, his voice as soothing as a lullaby, "Xixi, let’s get married..."

She stared at him, "Based on what?"

"Because I love you. Xixi, think about it, you’re almost thirty, not young anymore, dragging it out further wouldn’t be good, right? In the future, people will start calling you a ’leftover woman’..."

She suddenly widened her eyes, "Leftover woman? Didn’t you once tell me that the idea of a leftover woman is a conspiracy by the authorities? It’s a concept hyped to alleviate the future crisis of millions of bachelors, to make women foolish enough to marry just any man, regardless of how bad he is..."

He laughed silently, grudgingly, "Your memory’s pretty good."

"Isn’t it? I remember all the things you told me."

"I wouldn’t have told you if I had known."

"Too late... too late... hahaha..."

She suddenly felt very proud, her face lit up with excitement, "You know, getting married for a woman is really pointless... You have to work and take on most of the housework, have children, and take care of the man’s parents... Yet, men still expect you to be financially independent, some stingy ones even split the bill, and the ones who have a bit of money have their assets notarized in advance, afraid you’d take advantage... I think, any woman who doesn’t worry about basic needs doesn’t need to get married at all, marrying only decreases her quality of life..."

"Foolish girl, once you’re married, there’ll be someone to work like a horse for you!"

She said righteously, "Who? You? You think I’d believe you? Plus, I eat my fill and don’t need to worry about a family, I need no one to work like a horse for me. Not needed..."

"But, you need a child, don’t you?"

A child?

He gently guided, "You need to have a little girl or a little boy, right? With a flesh-and-blood relative, your strength would increase. And, think about it, if they looked like you, how beautiful they would be?"

She held up her wine glass, dreaming away.

A little boy or a little girl?

If it’s a little girl, she’d wear little boots, a denim skirt, little braids, full of life; if it’s a little boy, he’d wear a baseball cap, sneakers, mischievously breaking the neighbor’s glass with a slingshot... haha, how adorable.

But, all this feels too distant and unreal.

"Xixi... think about it, if we get married, we’ll soon have a child, then you’ll have the closest person in the world. For this reason alone, isn’t it worth getting married?"

She suddenly put down her wine glass heavily, almost spilling the red wine inside.

Wan Donglin was very surprised.

But she was furious, "You brute, you did it on purpose, right?"

"..."

"You clearly know I can’t... yet you purposely humiliate me like this, don’t you?"

He retorted, "Why can’t you?"

She suddenly jumped up and ran to the study, opened a drawer, then ran back out and threw a pile of old examination reports in his face furiously, "You’re mocking me, right? You don’t know the real situation, do you? Do you understand now? Take a good look..."

He pushed the examination reports aside, calmly, "I knew from the beginning."

She was furious, "If you knew, why would you say such cold words? Are you making fun of me?"
