Chapter 556: The Child
If Shen Dong happened to return to work at this time, I would definitely have to throw Shen Dong to the ground and trample him thoroughly. What kind of weather is this to ask me to go back to work? Don’t they know I’m about to die from exhaustion? If they make me go back to work, I absolutely won’t go. Anyway, I can still say a word or two in this place.
If I don’t want to, who can force me? While thinking this, Shen Dong suddenly reached out and grabbed Kang Yue’s hand and said, "When can we finally have a child?"
Didn’t you see how happy the owner of that bun shop was when he mentioned his child? I also want to have our own fruit of love. When do you think it would be appropriate for us to have one?
As he spoke about it, Shen Dong’s voice also carried a happy tone. After all, no one dislikes children, especially people like Shen Dong who are already considered wealthy. Wealthy people are the least afraid of trouble. Having children is great for them; they can just buy whatever is needed.
Talking about this also made Kang Yue very happy, although she hadn’t expected Shen Dong to suddenly bring it up. She was quite scared of giving birth; she had thought about not having children at all but just hadn’t found the opportunity to discuss it with Shen Dong yet. Now, he was passionately raising the topic of having children.
Her heart seemed to produce a slightly different emotion. They hated these thoughts about having a daughter because she had previously been scared by the sight of pregnant women in the maternity ward screaming in pain and the helpless look of a baby unable to come out. All of these sights terrified Kang Yue immensely.
It was also a kind of serendipity that these videos appeared in Kang Yue’s feed. If she hadn’t seen those contents in the video, she wouldn’t have known that childbirth was so painful. Unfortunately, she never wants to experience that pain in her life; she just doesn’t know how to say it now.
She was very sleepy just a moment ago, but now she wasn’t sleepy at all. She couldn’t bring herself to answer Shen Dong’s question. If she directly said she didn’t want children, would it dampen his enthusiasm? She was certain it would.
And if she didn’t want to have children, what if they ended up having one in the future? Would they have to abort it? That, too, would be very cruel.
Kang Yue was now completely unable to continue thinking this way. She was sweating coldly. Shen Dong noticed this and did not bring up the topic of children anymore, but instead asked with great concern, "Are you feeling weak because you stayed up all night?"
She hastened her steps back to the room. Shen Dong’s question made Kang Yue feel even guiltier, and she was too embarrassed to admit she didn’t want children. She could only use the lie as an excuse to avoid the topic.
