Chapter 569: Tea Leaves
"So now I’m just really distressed, wondering how to smoothly put an end to this situation. You have no idea how irritable I am. Maybe he isn’t bringing up the matter right now, but since he has already mentioned it, can it be long before he does so again?"
I’m afraid I won’t know how to cope the next time it comes up, which is really the most troubling part. It’s not that I’m very nervous right now, but you must help me. Think of a few ways to help me. It’s not that I can’t accept him having children with other women, but I just can’t get over this mental block, Shen Dong is a really decent man, after all.
It’s just that I myself can’t bear the pain of childbirth. Every time I see that image, I can’t help wanting to vomit, and I have nightmares every night. So, I don’t think I could ever have children. Perhaps I might adopt from an orphanage in the future, but I don’t think I’ll ever have my own. Right now, I feel absolutely stuck at this point."
After saying this, she let out a quiet sigh. Tang Yuchan thought that this matter still needed to be thoroughly communicated between the two. If they kept communicating like this, they would surely fail. There might even be more disagreements later. She couldn’t help but think that she might need to step in, yet she didn’t seem completely averse to the idea.
The two women started chatting about the topic of the night, sharing a little drink, and then began to ponder what the future might hold. Tang Yuchan also fancied the man she had seen earlier and wondered if a little story might unfold between the two of them. At this time, she also decided to discuss it in more detail with Kang Yue.
Kang Yue laughed and teased her. Hadn’t she fancied a handsome, pale young guy before? Now here she was eyeing someone new. Yuchan was getting a bit embarrassed by the teasing. The previous interest felt like it happened ages ago, and she had hardly thought about the guy until Kang Yue brought him up.
"Serves you right for being so fickle. Look at you, you’ve already forgotten about that man’s existence. I tell you, if he knew, he’d die of grief. The one you once wanted so much to be with has slipped your mind."
Kang Yue bellowed these words out. Tang Yuchan was not pleased. This little rascal dared to mock her! So, she playfully tickled her, saying, "Oh, you’re getting bold now, aren’t you? Don’t forget I’m here scheming on your behalf.
If you don’t want my help with strategy anymore, just keep laughing. I’d like to see how you’re going to deal with this difficult issue later by yourself. You’ve said it yourself, even if Shen Dong doesn’t bring it up now, he’ll have to eventually. Then I’ll see how you respond. That’s the price you pay for laughing at me. Go on, laugh."
After saying this, Tang Yuchan pulled a face, seemingly just playing with Kang Yue. The two went on like this, bickering and teasing, and soon forgot about the troubling matter. Kang Yue also decided to put it aside for the moment. There was no point in worrying about it just yet. It was better to relax and enjoy the present.
