So that means it's not 100% certain.

But should we really gamble?

If they lose the bet, their families will suffer misfortune as a result, and the price is far too heavy.

Before a child is born, you have a choice, but once the child is born, you lose that choice.

Liu Dekai: "..."

What should we do?

“I’m not angry at all. I’m not angry for the sake of the baby,” Mo Youyou said, touching her belly. She stood up and added, “I want to go back to the bedroom and lie down for a while. Call me when it’s time for dinner.”

"Oh right, Dekai, remember to ask for a day off for me tomorrow. I need to rest at home to take care of my pregnancy."

"Okay," Liu Dekai replied.

Mo Youyou had a check-up at the medical department today, and there's a record of it. It wouldn't be difficult to get her to take leave. Besides, the department she works in is relatively relaxed, so there won't be any problems if she's not there.

After Mo Youyou went to the bedroom, Zhang Cuihua wanted to persuade Liu Dekai to pay more attention to Mo Youyou and the child, but before she could speak, Liu Dekai gestured to her to go out.

"What are you going out to do?" Zhang Cuihua asked in a low voice.

Liu Dekai glanced at Aunt Liao, who was preparing dinner in the kitchen, and said in a low voice, "There's something I need to discuss with you, but it's not convenient at home."

"Oh, let's go then." Zhang Cuihua thought they were going to avoid Aunt Liao, so she immediately stood up and went out first.

The mother and son stood in the small courtyard in front of their house. Liu Dekai's expression returned to the somber look he had when he first returned home.

"Dekai, what happened? Don't scare me!" Zhang Cuihua said. She felt uneasy when she saw her son's expression, and her heart was in turmoil.

Liu Dekai: "..."

It's really hard to say.

But he didn't want to struggle with this alone anymore, so he told Zhang Cuihua that at least the two of them could discuss it together. After all, Zhang Cuihua was his mother, and she couldn't possibly not consider his feelings.

"Hurry up and tell me!" Zhang Cuihua urged.

"Phew—" Liu Dekai let out a long breath, finally making up his mind. He said, "Mom, the baby in Youyou's belly might be a super-male."

“Super male… what does that mean?” Zhang Cuihua wondered. She had never heard of this term before, but she did understand the difference between male and female.

"Chao Xiong" means "male," does this mean that Youyou is really carrying a son?

"Dekai, Youyou is having a boy, right?" Zhang Cuihua became excited instantly. She was overjoyed because she would soon have a grandson!

That's great news!

Furthermore, what does "supermale" mean? Does it mean surpassing the average male?

Does that mean her eldest grandson will be very successful in the future? More successful than other boys?

That's great! This daughter-in-law is really good at giving birth!

Zhang Cuihua's reaction was exactly the same as Liu Dekai's initial reaction; when he saw his mother at this moment, it was as if he were seeing himself an hour earlier.

It's just a pity...

“Mom, don’t be too happy yet. Although Chaoxiong is a boy, he has a higher chance than ordinary people of having violent tendencies, intellectual disabilities, antisocial personality disorder, and may even commit crimes, affecting his fertility, etc…” Liu Dekai said in a heavy tone.

With each word he spoke, his heart sank a little deeper.

"How could this happen?" Zhang Cuihua's smile instantly froze.

She was shocked by the symptoms of hyperandrogenism, especially its impact on fertility, which she found unbelievable.

"Dekai, are you sure? Could there be a mistake?"

This is human instinct; the instinctive reluctance to believe.

"There shouldn't be any mistake," Liu Dekai said. Hadn't he hoped so too?

But if Su Yueya wasn't absolutely certain, he thought she would never tell him something so serious, otherwise he would kill her.

Zhang Cuihua also fell silent.

This is a huge blow. She was just happy to have a grandson, but the next second she found out how terrible Chaoxiong is. Who can bear such a drop in status?

"Then, what should we do?" Zhang Cuihua looked at Liu Dekai anxiously. "Should we abort the child?"

Mo Youyou is already four months pregnant, and you're asking her to abort the child... who could bear that?

But if we don't abort this child, he might do bad things everywhere after he is born, become uncontrollable, and even destroy the Liu family... Wouldn't that be even more terrible?

And if Mo Youyou knew about this situation, she might miscarry due to the shock.

Four months had passed, and aborting the child would have been a huge blow to Mo Youyou.

"Dekai, say something!" Zhang Cuihua said urgently.

Liu Dekai: "..."

What should he say?

If he had a better solution, he wouldn't be so conflicted. Besides, there's no perfect solution to this kind of thing; you always have to sacrifice one side.

"I don't know!" After suppressing his emotions for so long, Liu Dekai finally had a brief opportunity to burst out. He squatted down, hugged his head, and clenched his fists tightly. "Mom, I really don't know what to do. I don't want to give up this child, but—I don't dare to let him be born."

The thought of Chao Xiong's negative traits makes it unbearable for anyone to bear the cost of having such a child born.

"This..." Zhang Cuihua also let out a long sigh. Then, as if remembering something, she immediately asked, "Son, does Youyou know about this situation now?"

“She doesn’t know yet,” Liu Dekai shook his head and explained, “She was just traumatized today and her emotions are not very stable. Su Yueya said it’s best not to provoke her any further and to let her emotions stabilize first.”

If the final decision is to abort, we'll have to wait until Mo Youyou is feeling better. In short, we have to keep it hidden for now.

“Mom, Youyou won’t be going to work for the next couple of days. When you’re at home with her, be careful what you say and do. We absolutely can’t let her find out right now. Let’s wait and see. Once she’s more settled, we’ll find another opportunity to talk to her about it,” Liu Dekai added.

“Okay, I understand.” Zhang Cuihua nodded in agreement.

Inside the house, Aunt Liao had already prepared dinner and was calling people to eat.

"Come on, let's go inside," Liu Dekai reminded her again before entering the house, "Mom, watch your emotions, don't make it too obvious."

"I know." Zhang Cuihua smiled bitterly. Her heart was bleeding, but she still had to force a smile on her face.

Otherwise, it would be too unusual, and Mo Youyou would definitely notice.

If she notices something amiss, then it won't be able to be kept secret anymore.

With heavy hearts, the mother and son stepped into the house.

On the other hand, Su Yueya didn't take Mo Youyou's pregnancy with a male child to heart at all—after all, she had fulfilled her obligation to inform him, and as for the final decision, that was not something she could interfere with, so why should she pay too much attention to it?

The Qiao family has recently focused all their attention on martial arts manuals.
