Yao's father didn't notice the change in their expressions and kept urging them to have a baby.
The smile on Qin Huaijun's face slowly faded, leaving only endless indifference. When he noticed Lin Xiaoxiao's gaze, a shadow flashed in his eyes.
“Look at how handsome Huaijun is, his children will definitely be very beautiful and cute.” Yao’s mother echoed Yao’s father’s words.
Brother Yao and Sister-in-law Yao also started praising him.
I have to flatter him. Qin Huaijun is already a section chief in the Ministry of Education, and he might even become a director in the future. I really need to hurry up and curry favor with him.
To Qin Huaijun, these compliments were nothing but humiliation.
On the day Lin Xiaoxiao gave birth, Qin Yushen dropped a bombshell, revealing that Qin Huaijun might not be able to have children. Qin Jinye and Yao Huixian went back to ask Qin Huaijun, but Qin Huaijun denied it.
Lu Xue'er also had a fight with Qin Huaijun and forced him to go to the hospital for a checkup.
If it were discovered that Qin Huaijun was infertile, she would divorce him without hesitation.
Qin Huaijun kept using the excuse of being busy with work to put it off until today.
Success in one's career should be a joyous occasion, but the Yao family's insistence on bringing up having children exposed Qin Huaijun's sore spot.
Qin Jinye, who was busy every day, had forgotten that Qin Huaijun hadn't gone for a check-up yet. Now that it was brought up again, he took it to heart and looked at his son several times. Yao Huixian's joy at her son's promotion was greatly diminished.
Only Old Master Qin was oblivious and joined the Yao family in urging them to have a child.
Qin Huaijun clenched his fists, the veins on his forehead throbbing as he suppressed his inner rage.
He knew his own physical condition well, and it was precisely because he knew that he especially hated others bringing up having children. When he and Fang Yao were having sex, if Fang Yao didn't show a very comfortable expression, he would slap her.
He was unwilling to touch Lu Xue'er.
Because he didn't want to see his wife showing him that look of disgust and disdain.
Having a baby, having a baby...
"Bang!"
The sound of the teacup shattering on the ground brought Qin Huaijun back to his senses.
He didn't even need to look up to know what kind of expressions these people would give him.
"Sorry, I messed up. You guys continue." He squeezed out a few words through gritted teeth, his hands trembling as he picked up the pieces.
"Mom's fine, don't hurt yourself." Yao Huixian still felt sorry for her son and quickly bent down to tidy up.
"Thank you... Mom." Qin Huaijun's lips curled up, but before the smile could fully form, he accidentally met Yao Huixian's pained yet complicated gaze, and his face twitched.
Quickly avoid her gaze, lower your eyelids, and conceal the overwhelming emotions in your eyes.
It's happening again. Is it some heinous crime that he can't have children? Why is everyone looking at him like that?
It's all Qin Yushen's fault.
Qin Huaijun lifted his eyelids and gave a deep look at An'an, who was already asleep in Qin Jinye's arms.
"Hey, having a baby is all about fate. It will come when it's meant to. Don't worry about it. My Huaijun really gave me and his dad a big surprise this time..." Yao Huixian felt a little uneasy and quickly changed the subject.
She temporarily used her son's career success to suppress the grief in her heart.
She had seen her son avoid her for the past two months. No matter how much she tried to persuade him, he refused to go to the hospital, and she already had a suspicion in her mind.
But I still held onto a sliver of hope.
Hopefully, after the examination, the doctor will say that it can be treated.
No matter what, she would secretly take him for a check-up tomorrow, without letting Lao Qin and Lu Xue'er know for the time being.
Once she made up her mind, Yao Huixian felt much better.
Lin Xiaoxiao didn't care at all whether Qin Huaijun could have children; she just heard that Qin Huaijun had been promoted and came to see what was going on.
The more excitement Yao Huixian makes now, the more embarrassing it will be later.
"Qin Huaijun, come out here!" At this moment, Lu Xue'er's loud voice suddenly came from outside the door.
After lunch, it was time for a stroll. When the crowd saw a car with a special license plate, they wanted to come and see what was going on. At first glance, they saw that the person getting out of the car was Qin's youngest daughter-in-law and her mother.
Thinking about the recent gossip circulating in the compound, everyone became interested.
"Is Huaijun's wife back from her parents' home?" The first to speak was an elderly woman. Her son and Qin Jinye were colleagues in the same government agency, and their families were usually quite close.
Lu Xue'er recognized her and hummed in response.
"I'm not trying to criticize you, but you young people these days are always fighting with the men in your families. You blow things out of proportion over the smallest things, and you trample on men's dignity. What good will that do you expect?" The old man couldn't help but lecture her when he saw her indifferent expression.
Some of the onlookers nodded in agreement.
Lu Xue'er's face turned ugly. Just as she was about to retort, the old woman continued, "In my opinion, your mother-in-law was right to send you back to your parents' home. You should reflect on your own problems."
"We don't need you women to make any contributions. It's good enough if you don't cause trouble for your men at home. Only Huaijun can tolerate a wife with a temper like yours."
"It's really not easy to make progress in your career when things are unstable at home."
The others nodded in agreement.
They must have already heard about Qin Huaijun's promotion.
Indeed, Yao Huixian's grand celebration dinner has become known to everyone.
"What nonsense are you talking about? It was clearly Qin Huaijun who pinched me..."
Others didn't believe it.
"The slap mark on Qin's face was so obvious when he went out that day."
"Yes, I saw it too."
