Upon entering the studio, Chu Fang saw a middle-aged woman wearing black-rimmed glasses and with curly hair.
"Dr. Liu."
"Ms. Zhong."
The two greeted each other and then went into the office. Chu Fang was thinking of slacking off when Zhong Tingyue stopped him.
"You come too."
"Is there anything else I need?"
“Of course, this is between the two of us.” Zhong Tingyue nodded.
Upon entering the office, Chu Fang realized that Dr. Liu was a renowned fertility expert who specialized in treating couples who couldn't conceive, and through his work, countless newborns had been brought into the world.
Chu Fang: "Are you possessed?"
In order to have a child, she tried all sorts of methods.
Zhong Tingyue rolled her eyes: "It's all because of your mother."
Chu Fang: "..."
When the news of their plans to conceive reached both families, Gao Ruoyun and Zhong Ping agreed, and the two quickly got married. It was perfectly acceptable to start trying to conceive early.
But when the news reached Chu's mother's ears, something seemed amiss.
Chu's mother told a story, the gist of which was that daughters-in-law who are not filial to their mothers-in-law will not receive divine protection and will not be able to get pregnant.
Chu's mother used this incident to warn Zhong Tingyue that she must be filial to her, not to play tricks on her, and must obey her views... and so on.
Zhong Tingyue naturally didn't believe it.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law then started arguing constantly.
This infuriated Chu's mother, who angrily retorted, "If you can get pregnant before we get married, I'll call you Mom!"
Chu Fang fell silent: "Is it necessary?"
Is this bet really going to continue?
“Yes!” Zhong Tingyue raised her smooth and delicate chin, like a masterpiece sculpted by an artist, neither too sharp nor lacking in gentleness. “I have to make your mother call me Mom!”
Chu Fang: "..."
The terrifying competitive spirit among women.
The two entered the room, and then Dr. Liu inquired about their sexual activity, took their pulses, and inquired about any problems.
Knowing that the couple hadn't been trying to conceive for long, Dr. Liu said with a smile, "Ms. Zhong, you're too anxious. Preparing for pregnancy isn't something that can be done overnight."
“I know, but I want to get pregnant within this short month.” Zhong Tingyue nodded.
She didn't mean anything by it; she just wanted to challenge Chu's mother.
I'd rather fight for my pride than for a steamed bun.
She's already being overshadowed by Chu's mother before even entering the Chu family; how is she supposed to survive in the future?
Seeing that Dr. Liu was speechless, Zhong Tingyue said, "Money is not a problem."
"I would like to examine your bodies carefully."
"Okay, no problem."
The three then left the studio and went to the hospital where Dr. Liu worked. They underwent various examinations, including blood tests, urine tests, liver function tests, and urological examinations. Afterward, Dr. Liu planned out the methods, approaches, and timing for them to prepare for pregnancy.
... ...
Chengdu.
Chu's mother touched her chest: "My heart is pounding so hard, it feels like it's going to jump out of my chest."
"Who's talking about me behind my back? Or is they plotting something against me?"
Chu's mother opened her phone, clicked on her WeChat Moments, and instantly felt like the sky had fallen: "Oh no! My life is over!"
The messages posted by Zhong Tingyue on her WeChat Moments were about the various pre-pregnancy checkups the couple underwent.
Chu's mother found out immediately; the message was sent to her.
"No way?" Chu's mother murmured, "Could it be that I really got that bad woman pregnant? If so, I'll have to call that bad woman 'Mom,' where will I put my face then?"
"Moreover, I will be trampled under Zhong Tingyue's feet for the rest of my life. No, I can't accept that!"
Chu's mother panicked immediately.
She left home, rode her electric scooter up the mountain, and arrived at her maternal grandfather's tomb.
Chu's mother knelt down and said softly, "Dad, you must protect me from below. You must not let that bad woman get pregnant. No, you must not let that bad woman get pregnant before we get married."
Zhong Tingyue's pregnancy is crucial for the Chu family to continue their lineage, so she cannot avoid getting pregnant, but she cannot get pregnant during the period when the two are making their bet.
You have to win this bet before you can get pregnant.
Looking at her father's tombstone, Chu's mother said, "Dad, you must protect me, otherwise your daughter will be bullied."
After paying respects to her father, Chu's mother went to the temple and prayed to various gods and Buddhas, with only one core idea: Zhong Tingyue must not get pregnant before marriage.
After the worship ceremony, Chu's mother put her hands on her hips and said, "I have my father protecting me and all the gods and Buddhas possessing me. What can you, Zhong Tingyue, do to fight me?"
She then posted a message on her WeChat Moments, implying that she had made corresponding preparations for the bet.
... ...
In Shanghai, Chu Fang and Zhong Tingyue left the hospital.
Zhong Tingyue spotted the message on WeChat Moments at a glance and couldn't help but say, "Your mother is really up to no good, always causing trouble."
She felt emotionally exhausted after having such a mother-in-law.
Chu Fang sighed, "Alas!"
He was also exhausted.
Preparing for pregnancy is a matter between two people. Zhong Tingyue needs to make preparations, and so does Chu Fang. This includes not only engaging in sexual activity but also adjusting their diet and avoiding certain foods to prevent affecting fertility.
During the preconception period, you should avoid eating garlic, celery, soybeans, and drinking alcohol.
It's really annoying just thinking about it.
... ...
Night falls and the city lights come on.
Zhong Tingyue sat there, planning out various matters related to the couple's preparation for pregnancy, and then took a picture of the plan and sent it to Chu's mother.
[Wang Shu: Image.JpG]
[Wang Shu: I will definitely win.]
[A little fairy: No way!]
[Wang Shu: Yes!]
[A little fairy: No way!]
[Wang Shu: Yes!!!]
[A little fairy: No way!!!]
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law childishly replied to each other, sending hundreds of "yes" and "no" messages, seemingly enjoying themselves immensely.
[Wang Shu: Okay, I'm not talking to you anymore. I'm going to make a baby with your son.]
[Wang Shu: Smiling.JpG]
[A little fairy: Come back, come back here!]
[Wang Shu: I've read your message but won't reply. Goodbye!]
... ...
In Chengdu, Chu's mother tossed aside her phone, let out a soft hum, and looked utterly dejected.
Why do bad women always want me to go against them?
How could there be such a daughter-in-law in the world?
"Old Chu, you be the judge."
"Hey, stop looking at your stocks, you've never made any money with them."
Mr. Chu's face turned green. He turned off his phone, looked up, and said softly, "You should treat her with sincerity and not target your future daughter-in-law like that."
“You’re taking the bad woman’s side too,” Chu’s mother said sternly. “If I lose this time, I’ll have to call her ‘Mom,’ and your seniority will also be lowered; you’ll have to call her ‘Mom’ too.”
After thinking for a moment, Chu's father said, "That makes sense. I support you."
"That's right, you have to support me!" Chu's mother raised her chin.
