She heard that Qiaorentang was quite lively, so she decided to go and see for herself.
When Mo Youyou heard the mother and son talking about Su Yueya, Qiao Rentang, and the health-strengthening pills, her anger flared up. But she couldn't let it out, even though she was pregnant. She couldn't vent her anger directly on this matter, so she could only vent it indirectly through other things.
This is because it's Liu Dekai's way of showing "filial piety" to Zhang Cuihua. If Mo Youyou doesn't support it, she'll be labeled as unfilial.
This hat is too big; if it gets out, people will gossip about it behind her back. Mo Youyou really can't handle it.
"Aren't you guys going to eat?" Mo Youyou didn't wait and sat down to eat, using the baby in her belly as an excuse. "I have to eat first. I can wait, but the baby in my belly won't stand for it. He's clamoring to eat!"
Liu Dekai and his mother didn't expose her.
The next day, Liu Dekai made a special trip to the medical department to express his gratitude to Su Yueya.
"Crescent Moon, thank you. My mother's health has improved a lot since she took the health-strengthening pills. Doctors who used to say she was beyond help and could only be treated slowly now find it unbelievable!" Liu Dekai said excitedly.
Actually, he himself didn't expect it.
It seems I really underestimated Su Yueya before. Three years ago, she did have the ability to cure Zhang Cuihua, and now she has even developed a wonderful product like the Strengthening Pill.
It's so enviable and makes people jealous.
"Oh, you're welcome." Su Yueya replied indifferently, showing no reaction to Liu Dekai's thanks, her attitude neither warm nor cold.
For her, the health-enhancing pills were just a "business".
Since she had already accepted the customer's money, it was only right that the health-enhancing pills were effective and helpful; it was within her job responsibilities.
Just like Zhang Cuihua's body... Su Yueya didn't treat her, but by launching the Strengthening Pill, she inadvertently helped Zhang Cuihua.
However, Su Yueya wouldn't feel guilty, since she had made money.
"So, you still want to make a reservation?" Su Yueya knew that making a reservation was something that could be done once or twice. If she made too many reservations, it would be unfair to other customers, and she would also have to worry that Liu Dekai would turn around and accuse her of making too much money and being too greedy.
"Actually, you can go to Qiaorentang and queue up. They're currently implementing a real-name registration system for purchases, so the situation where one person buys a lot will be greatly reduced," Su Yueya reminded her.
"Okay." Liu Dekai thanked him and then left.
He knew that Su Yueya was indifferent to him, and he didn't want to keep trying to win her over.
Su Yueya: "..."
Throughout the entire process, Liu Dekai never mentioned the child once. So, did the couple ultimately decide to keep their son, Chaoxiong?
Su Yueya felt a little uneasy, but she had a clear conscience because she had basically explained everything to Liu Dekai beforehand, and others had the right to make the final decision.
"Never mind, everyone has their own fate," Su Yueya said, turning her gaze away.
However, Su Yueya was still wary of the possibility that Chao Xiong'er might harm others. She planned to keep her family away from Chao Xiong'er in the future to avoid being implicated and harmed for no reason.
These days, many children, taking advantage of their young age and the indulgence and pampering of their families, are raised to be "bratty kids," who are practically ticking time bombs.
Given the Liu family's traditions, coupled with Chao Xiong's genes...
Su Yueya shook her head, feeling that their family's hardships were likely yet to come.
However, Su Yueya would never advise someone to abort a child—especially Mo Youyou. It would be a thankless task, and she would definitely be bitten in return. So she would only offer a reminder and never give any advice.
After leaving the medical department, Liu Dekai couldn't help but think about Su Yueya's indifferent attitude. It felt like a thorn was stuck in his heart; he couldn't quite describe the discomfort, but it was definitely a real irritation.
"He's such a show-off..." Liu Dekai complained.
But seeing Su Yueya this time reminded him of Chao Xiong's matter, which he has not yet mentioned to Mo Youyou.
Because Mo Youyou needed to rest properly after her miscarriage, he initially asked her if she felt better, but she kept saying something was wrong. He wasn't sure if Mo Youyou was genuinely uncomfortable or just saying that to get someone to take care of her, so he assumed she was still feeling unwell and didn't say anything.
But now, a month has passed, should he tell him?
It's foreseeable that mentioning this to Mo Youyou will definitely affect her emotions, and might even make her suspect his motives. But if he doesn't say anything...
If Su Yueya's words were false, then so be it; he wasn't fooled and could pretend this never happened. But if it were true, and Chaoxiong was really as terrible as Su Yueya described, and he hadn't discussed this with Mo Youyou, then the Liu family and he himself would have to bear the consequences in the future!
Liu Dekai dared not gamble, because the cost of losing was too high.
“By the way, Su Yueya is right. Currently, people in China don’t know much about this. It’s not that they are completely unaware. I can go to the library to check…” Liu Dekai nodded, thinking that if he could see even the slightest bit of relevant information, it would at least prove that this matter was not fabricated.
So Liu Dekai decided to go to the library alone this weekend to look up information.
When Liu Dekai returned home that evening and saw Mo Youyou's protruding belly, his feelings were extremely complicated.
Mo Youyou is currently five months pregnant, and her belly is quite noticeable. She looks very pregnant now, and often at home she watches TV while touching her belly, smiling radiantly as she talks to her baby.
"My sweet baby, you did a great job today! You didn't bother Mommy or make her feel uncomfortable. I wish you could be this good every day!"
Liu Dekai knew that Mo Youyou had a hard time enduring it in the early stages, especially in the first few months when she often vomited, sometimes crying while vomiting.
"Hey! Did you just move?"
Mo Youyou looked delighted and saw Liu Dekai return. She waved to him happily, her tone more joyful and affectionate than ever before.
"Honey, come here and feel it for me! I felt our baby move just now! It was so tiny, but it really moved! Come and feel it!" Mo Youyou's face was filled with happiness.
Infected by Mo Youyou's emotions, Liu Dekai walked over, squatted down beside the sofa, placed one hand on her bulging belly, and felt it...
"Can you feel it?" Mo Youyou asked expectantly.
"It seems... not..." Liu Dekai felt very carefully, pressing against her belly, not missing any tiny touch.
