Even if aborting the child causes too much harm to Mo Youyou, it could affect their ability to have children in the future.
So we have to be quick!
After leaving the Bowen Library and returning home, Liu Dekai saw Mo Youyou and, disregarding everything else, immediately told her everything.
"Youyou, we can't keep this child!"
It was the weekend, and Mo Youyou stayed in bed a little longer. When she got up, she didn't want to eat breakfast, so she just lay on the sofa and played. She ate a few bites of the fruit that Aunt Liao had washed and cut.
I was happily watching TV, touching my belly and occasionally talking to the baby, when I heard Liu Dekai say something extremely unlucky.
The smile on her face froze instantly, and she turned to glare angrily at Liu Dekai.
"Liu Dekai, what nonsense are you spouting!?"
"Didn't I tell you before that you're not allowed to say such hurtful things in front of the children? Did you not understand or have you forgotten?" Mo Youyou scolded.
Zhang Cuihua was standing to the side, her face also pale. But knowing that her son had made up his mind, she didn't speak up to help Mo Youyou this time, and instead stayed silent.
“Youyou, I’m serious, we really can’t keep this child, please listen to me…”
"The last time you fainted at the military medical center, you had a check-up, and Su Yueya said that the child in your belly is very likely Chaoxiong!"
“Youyou, this is a very serious matter. We must consider it carefully. If this child is born, the consequences will be unbearable for us,” Liu Dekai said.
Is he really willing to part with this child?
No, Liu Dekai was also upset, but he had no choice but to make this decision after rationally weighing the pros and cons.
After hearing Liu Dekai's explanation, knowing that he wasn't just talking without thinking, Mo Youyou calmed down a bit and began to carefully consider the deeper meaning of his words.
"Super Xiong?" Mo Youyou looked puzzled and asked, "What does 'super Xiong' mean? Our child is super Xiong, so does that mean... can we be sure the child is a boy?"
Her reaction was exactly the same as Liu Dekai's and Zhang Cuihua's back then.
"Yes." Liu Dekai nodded.
No wonder... She suddenly remembered that Liu Dekai had casually mentioned his son before, so that must be the reason?
Before Mo Youyou could react to the boy, she heard Liu Dekai's next words. Her expression changed from shock to disbelief, and then to rejection.
"Supermale sex chromosome abnormality is a disease that manifests as..."
Liu Dekai recounted all the symptoms he had recorded.
Mo Youyou's face grew increasingly grim as she listened, shaking her head repeatedly, refusing to believe a single word Liu Dekai said.
"No, impossible! My child can't be like this!" Mo Youyou touched her belly, feeling the vibrant life inside, and retorted, "Su Yueya must be talking nonsense, yes, it's her who's talking nonsense! My baby is very well-behaved!"
Mo Youyou felt as if she had found the truth.
"Su Yueya's husband is impotent, so she can't have children. That's why she's been resentful ever since she found out I was pregnant. She's just trying to sow discord by deliberately talking about Chaoxiong to you..."
"Liu Dekai, have you ever heard of Chaoxiong before?" Mo Youyou looked at Zhang Cuihua again and questioned, "Have you ever heard of him before?!"
"No! Right? We've never heard of any Chaoxiong, so this must be something Su Yueya made up herself to curse our child. She's jealous! She's trying to sow discord! She's deliberately saying these bad things to make us give up the child!"
“I was already four months pregnant at that time, and I even had a miscarriage. If you had told me later, and I had aborted the child when my belly was big, I might have even damaged my body and never be able to have children again. That would have made her happy!”
"I won't fall for it, I absolutely won't fall for it!" Mo Youyou said as she backed away.
Her entire demeanor exuded resistance.
“Youyou, Su Yueya didn’t lie. The concept of Chaoxiong wasn’t something she made up…” Liu Dekai tried to explain, after all, he had personally gone to the library to check the information.
Su Yueya might lie, but the sheer number of books in the library makes it impossible for her to lie.
He was not acting blindly; this was a decision made after investigation and consideration.
“Youyou, I’m also reluctant to part with this child, but… we can’t disbelieve the doctor!” Zhang Cuihua didn’t remain silent any longer. Although she was heartbroken and reluctant to part with the child, she was still rational and supported Liu Dekai’s decision.
If her grandson is going to become a criminal, then she'd rather not have such a grandson!
In the past, if a younger member of a family in the village was imprisoned, they would be unable to hold their head up when walking on the street, and would be drowned in the spittle of others.
Zhang Cuihua was even more unwilling to let her unfilial grandson jeopardize her son's future.
So it was the right thing to do.
"Look at this health-strengthening pill I'm taking, it was invented by Su Yueya. So many doctors said that my health couldn't be improved, but this health-strengthening pill just happens to work. That proves that Su Yueya is amazing, she really has some skills!"
"Since she said that, it means there really is a problem with the child in your belly. If we give birth to a child who will commit crimes, then our family is doomed!"
Zhang Cuihua offered earnest advice, and this was the first time she hadn't sided with her daughter-in-law since Mo Youyou became pregnant.
Because this is a matter of great importance, we must be rational when it comes to issues affecting the future of the whole family!
“Youyou, listen to me. You have to trust me and Dekai. We would never harm you or the child!” Zhang Cuihua said.
Mo Youyou believed these words. Whether they would harm her or not was hard to say, but the child in her belly was, after all, Liu Dekai's child. They wouldn't be so bad as to disregard their own son and grandson.
But……
"Why should Su Yueya's words be the truth? Do I need to elaborate on her grudges with our family? Why can't it be that she's lying on purpose?" Mo Youyou found it hard to accept.
"Because I checked with the library," Liu Dekai said.
He had shared Mo Youyou's worries and doubts. Faced with such a serious and important issue, he would not make a hasty decision, after all, it involved a life...
"I didn't actually go to the military base today; I went to the Bowen Library. I spent most of the day there researching and reading a lot of books before I confirmed that what Su Yueya said wasn't a lie. The probability of Chao Xiong is indeed relatively low, but it's not impossible. If that probability falls on our family, then it's one hundred percent."
"Another terrifying thing is that super-male babies are particularly 'clever'. In order to survive, they will influence their mother's emotions, making her love them more and be reluctant to abort them, just like you are now... You are influenced by them and can no longer think rationally."
