[Chapter 404: Urge Again]
In order to have a second child, Huo Qingyun specially asked Lin Yin to meet him at the old house alone.
When Lin Yin stepped into the living room of the old house, Huo Qingyun was sitting on the sofa with a serious expression.
"Lin Yin, you're here, please sit down." Huo Qingyun pointed to the seat opposite.
Lin Yin sat down slowly, having guessed somewhat of Huo Qingyun's purpose.
Huo Qingyun cleared his throat and said, "Lin Yin, I called you here today because I want to talk to you about having a second child. You see, the Huo family can't live without a son to inherit the family business, so you should think about it again."
Lin Yin shook her head slightly, and said firmly, "Dad, I've said before that I don't want to have a baby. You know my physical condition well."
When Huo Qingyun heard this, his face immediately darkened, and he angrily accused her, "Why don't you consider the Huo family? If you don't give birth, won't Jingze be childless?"
Lin Yin was also unhappy, frowning and retorting: "Dad, what you said is too feudal. Although Lin Yuan is a daughter, she still has Huo Jingze's blood flowing in her body. How can it be that there will be no descendants? Daughters can still inherit the family business and be filial to their parents."
Lin Yin's defiance made Huo Qingyun even more unhappy. His lips trembled slightly and he wanted to explode but held back.
After all, Lin Yin is no longer the girl from a humble family. She is now the eldest daughter of the Jiang family and a perfect match for the Huo family. He cannot treat her as rudely as he would an ordinary daughter-in-law.
But Huo Qingyun was unwilling to accept this, and he started to talk about tradition again, "Our family has been passed down through sons for so many years. If Jingze's generation has no sons, how can we justify it? The family line cannot be cut off!"
Lin Yin was unmoved by these arguments. She stood up and said, "Dad, I don't want to continue talking about this topic. I have something else to do. I'm leaving now."
Seeing this, Huo Qingyun hurriedly called her, "Lin Yin, don't leave in a hurry. If you really don't want to hurt your body, then you can help persuade Jingze. How about this, you provide the embryo and find someone else to carry it. This way, it won't hurt your body, and you can also have descendants of the Huo family."
When Lin Yin heard this, her eyes widened in shock, "Dad, what are you talking about? Isn't that dy? This is illegal!"
Huo Qingyun waved his hand nonchalantly, "What's the big deal? As long as we do it secretly, no one will know. I will naturally find a way to handle everything."
Lin Yin refused without hesitation, "No, I will never agree to do this. This is against ethics and morality, and it also violates the law."
Huo Qingyun was completely enraged. He stood up suddenly, slammed the table, and shouted, "Why are you so ignorant? I'm doing this for the good of the Huo family!"
His roar echoed in the old house, and his expression was very scary.
Just then, Huo Jingze hurried over.
As soon as he entered the living room, he saw the angry Huo Qingyun and the somewhat aggrieved Lin Yin. He immediately walked to Lin Yin and protected her behind him.
Huo Jingze looked stern and said in a resounding voice: "Dad, Lin Yin and I will not have a second child, so please stop urging us. If you continue to force us like this, we will never set foot in the old house again until the day you die."
After saying that, Huo Jingze took Lin Yin and turned to leave.
Huo Qingyun looked at their departing backs, shaking with anger. He picked up a teacup on the table and smashed it on the ground. With the sound of broken porcelain, he roared, "I shouldn't have let you two be together in the first place!"
…
Gubei No.1.
Lin Yuan threw herself into Lin Yin's arms and shouted crisply, "Mom, you're finally back. Yuan Yuan missed you."
"Mom has only been gone for a short time." Lin Yin walked into the living room holding her daughter's hand, laughing softly.
"The kindergarten teacher said that it's like missing someone for three years." Lin Yuan pulled Lin Yin to sit on the carpet, "Mom, play with me!"
"Okay, mom will play with you."
Lin Yin showed a gentle smile on her face. She gently stroked Lin Yuan's hair and played with her toys in the living room.
After a while, Lin Yuan suddenly stopped what he was doing, and gently touched Lin Yin's belly with his little hand. His eyes were full of curiosity and expectation, and he asked, "Mom, when will you give me a little brother?"
Lin Yin was slightly startled, then asked with a smile: "Yuanyuan, do you really want a brother?"
Lin Yuan tilted his little head, thought seriously for a moment, nodded first, and then shook his head.
Lin Yin looked at her cute appearance and couldn't help laughing, "Yuanyuan, what do you mean?"
Lin Yuan stretched out his little hands and hugged Lin Yin's neck tightly, saying in a baby voice: "Mom, I don't want a younger brother, because if I have a younger brother, mom and dad's love will definitely be divided. But grandpa said that if there is no younger brother, when mom and dad are old, Yuanyuan can't protect you alone. Grandpa also said that girls are not capable enough to manage dad's company well, only a younger brother can do it."
At this time, Huo Jingze heard the noise and walked over.
He bent down, gently lifted Lin Yuan from Lin Yin's arms into his own, looked into her eyes, and said seriously: "Yuanyuan, grandpa is wrong. Now we are in a civilized society, unlike the backward feudal society where we need to use physical strength to judge right and wrong. In a civilized society, what can protect ourselves and our families are money, power and legal weapons. As long as we have these two things, no one can bully us."
Lin Yuan listened and nodded as if he understood.
Huo Jingze continued, "Besides, Grandpa is wrong when he says that girls can't do it. Girls are very smart, not inferior to boys at all, and even better than boys in many aspects. As long as Yuanyuan studies hard, she can still manage Dad's company in the future, and even manage it better."
Lin Yuan's eyes lit up all of a sudden, and he asked excitedly, "Will Yuan Yuan be better than Dad in the future?"
Huo Jingze encouraged her with a smile: "As long as you are willing to work hard, nothing is impossible in the world. Dad believes you have the potential."
Lin Yuan's face was filled with a confident smile, and he said loudly: "Then I will work hard and be better than my father in the future. When mom and dad are old, I will definitely protect you."
Huo Jingze hugged Lin Yuan tightly, "Okay, Yuanyuan is awesome, Dad and Mom both believe in you."
Lin Yin gently touched Lin Yuan's face and said, "Yuanyuan, whether you have a brother or not, you are your parents' favorite baby."
Lin Yuan twisted her body happily in Huo Jingze's arms, "I know, mom and dad love Yuanyuan the most!"
