Then, he felt the skin under his palm move slightly, and exclaimed with delight, "It moved! He really moved! My son is moving!"
A small touch, yet a tremendous shock.
The feeling of facing a new life is truly amazing.
Especially when this life still carries half of your genes and blood, the connection of bloodlines is both awe-inspiring and sacred.
That was a life!
It's a life that shares an unbreakable bloodline with you!
In that instant, Liu Dekai truly wavered; he actually felt reluctant to let Mo Youyou abort the child.
What if? Su Yueya also said it wasn't 100% certain. What if his son was one in 10,000 and didn't show the undesirable traits of supermale genes?
"Right! I told you he really moved just now, it wasn't my imagination, it wasn't an illusion!" Mo Youyou was also very happy and continued to interact with the baby.
“Baby, you must have seen Daddy and were very happy, that’s why you were interacting with him, right?” At this point, Mo Youyou remembered what Liu Dekai had just said and glared at him with some displeasure. “What did you just say? Son? How do you know our baby is a son? Or are you sexist?”
Mo Youyou had not checked the baby's gender and did not know whether she was carrying a boy or a girl.
She wasn't too concerned about this issue, because all her children were her treasures, regardless of gender, and she would dote on them to the utmost, just like her parents did for her—if Liu Dekai and Zhang Cuihua dared to favor boys over girls, she would definitely stand up for her child!
“Honey, don’t think the baby can’t hear. He can hear everything now. What if it’s a daughter? Wouldn’t she be heartbroken if she heard what you just said? I’m warning you, you and your mother, don’t try to pull that sexist act on me! I will never allow my child to suffer any injustice!” Mo Youyou’s tone was quite firm.
Liu Dekai: "..."
His wry smile didn't actually reflect the sexist bias Mo Youyou had imagined.
It would be better if it were a daughter, because Su Yueya said that the supermale gene is always in boys, and girls wouldn't have this problem.
But right now, Liu Dekai doesn't dare tell Mo Youyou these things.
Seeing Mo Youyou's expectations and affection for the child made him even more unable to speak up.
"What are you thinking? I just... just said it offhand, I didn't think that much about it, and it's not about favoring boys over girls, don't worry." Liu Dekai touched Mo Youyou's belly, his eyes deep, "They're my children, I love them all."
"Hmph, you can't say it casually anymore," Mo Youyou instructed. "Let me tell you, don't think I'm making a mountain out of a molehill. Kids can really hear, so we can't hurt their feelings."
"Okay, okay, I promise I won't say anything carelessly from now on, and I'll be careful with every word I say," Liu Dekai replied cooperatively.
“That’s more like it…” Mo Youyou continued talking to the baby, “Baby, don’t be angry with Daddy, okay? Did you hear that? Daddy said that no matter if you’re a boy or a girl, we love you. You have to be a good boy, okay?”
If I had never known about Chao Xiong, what a happy and wonderful moment this would have been...
Finally, the weekend arrived. Liu Dekai used the excuse of military business to head straight to the city's largest library, Bowen Library, which supposedly had all kinds of books.
"Comrade, which section contains the medical books?" Liu Dekai asked the staff member.
"On the second floor, on the east side, after you go upstairs, walk to the left of the stairs. That area, towards the back, is full of medical books," the staff member said.
Liu Dekai went straight to the second floor and found the medical books section.
There are so many books, it's like finding a needle in a haystack for a complete novice like him who knows nothing about medicine.
He started by looking at the spines of books, trying to find out from the names, but it seemed he couldn't find a single book about Chao Xiong.
“Su Yueya said that there are very few books on this topic in China… Could it be that Bowen Library doesn’t have any either?” Liu Dekai was skeptical. If Bowen Library couldn’t find it, then other small libraries and bookstores would be even less likely to have the information.
"By the way, Su Yueya mentioned that supermales are a genetic issue. If you can't find anything that directly introduces supermales, you can look for books related to genes!"
This made things much easier, and Liu Dekai quickly found many books introducing genes.
However, not every book mentions Chao Xiong.
Fortunately, he had made preparations in advance and arrived early in the morning, so he had plenty of time to slowly read through all the books that might be relevant.
If you focus on the key words, you can still get things done quickly.
After flipping through dozens of books on genes, he finally found one that mentioned the term "supermale," and immediately sat down to read the contents carefully.
Superandrogenic syndrome is a sex chromosome abnormality. Its chromosomal composition is... pathogenesis... clinical manifestations... genetics and prevention... treatment and intervention...
The relevant content is not much, and it is written in an extremely concise manner.
But it's exactly the same as what Su Yueya said.
Therefore, what Liu Dekai can confirm up to now is that Su Yueya did not deceive him, and that Chao Xiong'er really is dangerous; Su Yueya's words are by no means alarmist.
Especially when you get to the very end, the book says that Chao Xiong'er carries a criminal gene. That sentence was like a wake-up call, a direct blow that sobered Liu Dekai up!
The scene of me and Mo Youyou touching our bellies and warmly dreaming about the future suddenly switched to a blurry face, an unusually tall figure, an indistinct yet terrifying expression, and then someone approaching with their hands in shackles...
"Phew—" Liu Dekai let out a long breath, waking up from his fantasy.
"No, that won't do." Liu Dekai's resolve gradually hardened.
If his son commits a crime, it might jeopardize his future in the military, and even affect his father-in-law, dragging the whole family down with him...
That's definitely not what Liu Dekai wants to see!
If you lose a child, you can have another one.
He and Mo Youyou are so young. Even if this one is gone, they still have a chance to have another one. Why do they have to gamble on the probability? If they lose, their family will be destroyed!
Yes, no gambling, no gambling!
Although the available information is limited, it all speaks ill of Chao-hsiung, which proves that Chao-hsiung does indeed have problems, and currently there is no solution to them.
In that case, we should gamble even less.
Liu Dekai immediately made up his mind; he had to tell Mo Youyou about this and make a decision as soon as possible.
Because Mo Youyou is already five months pregnant, any later and it might be too late.
