“Adoption is also a good idea, but according to the newly revised adoption regulations, we can only adopt if we are childless until we are forty years old.” Pei Yang racked his brains to come up with this solution.

"Is that so?" Xu Jiayue frowned, feigning distress.

“Yes, yes.” Pei Yang nodded quickly, hugged her tightly, and looked at her with bright eyes. “It’s better for us to get pregnant naturally, and it would be best if we got pregnant this year, so that you don’t have to be an older pregnant woman, which would be very hard.”

Xu Jiayue's face fell, and she narrowed her eyes dangerously: "An older pregnant woman? Are you implying that I'm old?"

"No, no, of course not." Pei Yang felt that he was actually clumsy with words. He just wanted to coax her to give in to him as soon as possible, so why was it so difficult?

"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. You're just saying nice things, but you're really only thinking about that kind of thing. If you want to go find another woman, I'm not going to play along." Xu Jiayue pushed Pei Yang's chest.

She thought he would cling to her stubbornly, but to her surprise, he let go of her like that, lowered his eyes, and turned his back to her.

"What tricks are they up to now?" was Xu Jiayue's first thought.

After a long while, she suddenly heard his voice, low and dejected, coming from behind her: "Jiayue, no matter how much you despise me, you shouldn't tell me to go find other women. We're married. Do you really want your husband to cheat on you? Do you really think I'm such a terrible person? Don't you believe I'll take responsibility for our marriage? Will you be happy if you push me to another woman?"

Xu Jiayue initially felt that her words were not very pleasant to hear, but she did not expect him to be so heartbroken.

"That's not what I meant either." She felt guilty and wanted to defend herself, but couldn't find the words. Finally, she reached out and shook his arm, saying softly, "Don't be angry. How could I push you to another woman? No one is allowed to touch my things."

Pei Yang did not turn around or say anything.

Xu Jiayue didn't expect him to be so angry. Thinking about it, she realized she had really gone too far, so she said again, "I know I was wrong. I won't say such things again next time. Don't be angry."

Pei Yang still didn't respond. After a long while, he said, "The words I swore in the church weren't just empty words. I wrote them down for a long, long time, wanting to give you all my promises. There was no joke, no child's play."

Hearing him say this, Xu Jiayue felt even more guilty. She was angry at the time and hadn't paid attention to his vows, so she didn't know what he was saying. Anyway, when she came to her senses, many women below were crying.

"Jiayue, I'm not angry with you, I'm just sad. Do you really distrust me that much?" Pei Yang sniffed.

Xu Jiayue's heart skipped a beat. Could he have been crying?

"I believe you, I believe you, okay?" She sat up and leaned over to look at him, but he buried his face in the blanket.

Did she really cry?

"I know I was wrong, please don't do this." Xu Jiayue didn't mean for things to turn out this way, and now she was filled with regret.

Pei Yang didn't say anything, sniffed again, and his shoulders trembled slightly.

Xu Jiayue panicked, hugged him tightly, and called out repeatedly, "Husband, husband..."

Pei Yang suppressed a laugh under the covers while feeling the pressure on his back.

As Xu Jiayue saw the shaking of his shoulders intensify, she became somewhat nervous and crawled into his bed, wanting to climb over to his side to check on him.
