Chapter 553 - 551: She Wants a Child
Ji Niandong stepped into the bathtub, feeling quite excited when Li Siru suggested she have a child. Having a child with Lu Beichen would certainly be smart and beautiful. Besides, having a child with someone you love is something worth celebrating.
Dreams and such, compared to these, are really insignificant.
But now, hearing him say this, she indeed felt a bit hesitant again. Ji Niandong closed her eyes and leaned against the bathtub; she really needed to give it some serious thought.
Lu Beichen walked out of the room, hardly visible, and breathed a sigh of relief. All along, her reluctance to have children was stronger than anyone’s, so how did she suddenly want children?
Lu Beichen couldn’t help but frown, took out his phone, and dialed Zhu Yiming’s number.
"What’s up again?" Zhu Yiming asked straightaway.
Lu Beichen turned towards the sofa, sat down, and said, "You picked up the phone quickly this time."
"Last time I missed your call, I heard you smashed your phone. This time it’s probably about your wife again?" Zhu Yiming said helplessly.
There was silence on the other end for a few seconds before Lu Beichen said, "Zhu Yiming, I... really don’t know what to do."
Zhu Yiming was shocked; he was lying on the balcony enjoying the night view and drinking red wine, feeling quite dreamy and dazed. Hearing him say this, it was like being struck by lightning, suddenly alert, sitting up quickly, and after a few seconds of calmness, he laughed, "Oh my, am I really drunk? I’m hearing Lu Beichen say he doesn’t know what to do. There’s actually something Lu Beichen doesn’t know how to handle?"
He was clearly teasing, yet Lu Beichen still couldn’t relax, and the silence persisted on the other end. Zhu Yiming then picked up his wine glass, stood up, paced back and forth in the room wearing a bathrobe, sipping red wine as he said, "I’ve already told you, that’s really not a big deal; at worst, restrain yourself."
"She wants a child." Lu Beichen said quietly.
Zhu Yiming’s footsteps stopped, stunned for several seconds before putting his wine glass aside, then became a bit more serious, "Didn’t she just have a breakthrough in the entertainment industry? Why would she want a child now?"
"If my guess is correct, Tu Yingying told her that when she was kidnapped, I went to rescue Xi Yao, and she has always believed Nian Nian is a child of me and Xi Yao."
How well must one know a person to understand everything she does and why, and how much must one love someone to understand her like this!
Zhu Yiming almost choked, and after a pause, he spoke softly, "Honestly, I nearly believed it too, that your son is with Gu Xiyao."
"Zhu Yiming!" A slightly angry voice came through.
Zhu Yiming quickly explained, "Based on what I know about you, you’re indeed not someone who would make a move on your niece, but I didn’t know you liked older men with younger women; it’s not necessarily wrong, right? When you go mad, there’s nothing you wouldn’t do, hahaha, just kidding."
Zhu Yiming stopped at the right time and seriously said, "You’ve stopped giving her those birth control pills for quite a while, but she still hasn’t gotten pregnant?"
"I thought the birth control pills damaged her body, so last time she was in the hospital, I had the doctor check her up, and it was proven that her body is not an issue. But..." Lu Beichen frowned even more tightly.
Zhu Yiming blurted out, "So your wife doesn’t have a problem with fertilization, but you’re worried about issues after she gets pregnant?"
