"Wow!" Su Jiu's eyes sparkled. "And then?"
"But your fifth brother thought she was too young, and he was 25 at the time, so he refused and sent her abroad to study properly."
"That girl must be really heartbroken," Su Jiu said.
"Yes, that girl came back to China recently. She has a double degree in finance and business management. I heard that she started her own business abroad while she was in college and has now established a small financial investment bank. Your fifth brother invested in her and became a shareholder. Over the years, this girl has made a lot of money, and she has paid it all back to your fifth brother."
"But your fifth brother didn't want her. This girl is doing very well, she's young and beautiful, everyone likes her, and she has many suitors. A while ago, she accepted the advances of a rich young man her age, and they were about to get together, but your fifth brother got anxious and became jealous."
Su Jiu: "!!!! You can do that?!"
While cracking sunflower seeds, Su's mother said, "Who says otherwise! Your fifth brother rejected her back then, and now that she wants to be with another man, your fifth brother is crying his eyes out and clinging to her all day long, sending her flowers and all sorts of bags, pinning her against the wall, and begging her not to be with another man..."
Su Jiu: "...That's hard to say."
Mother Su: "So now, your fifth brother is in a 'wife-chasing hell,' and we don't even know if he can catch up with her."
"I believe Fifth Brother can do it. Keep it up!" Su Jiu said.
Not far away, Fifth Brother, sitting in the men's section, always felt that people were talking about him behind his back.
It seems like Su Jiu and her mother are whispering to each other.
Fifth Brother merely glanced at it and ignored it.
He was so busy thinking about how to win back his wife that he didn't have time to think about these other things.
"Mo Cheng, you need to work harder," Su's mother said, shifting the topic to Shen Mo Cheng.
Shen Mochen suddenly realized that if he let Xiaojiu not try to conceive or get pregnant, people might think he was sick.
After all, Xiao Jiu is so young, while he's almost thirty.
Shen Mochen suddenly felt a sense of crisis.
After the banquet, Su Jiu and Shen Mochen went home.
As soon as they got home, Su Jiu was carried to the bedroom by Shen Mochen.
"Huh?" Su Jiu wrapped her slender white arms around the man's neck, blinked, and looked at him in surprise. "What are you doing?"
"To create a child." The man pursed his thin lips, his dark eyes fixed intently on her.
"Baby, I want a child." The man placed the girl on the bed and leaned down to gently kiss her smooth, full forehead.
Su Jiu's heart was pounding. "But I don't want to have a baby right now."
"You only need to focus on giving birth. Once the baby is born, there will be a nanny, a postpartum caregiver, and a babysitter to take care of it. You don't need to worry about anything," the man said in a hoarse voice.
“But I’m very happy and content with my life right now. If I have a child, I’m worried that I’ll be tied down and won’t be able to do whatever I want like I do now,” Su Jiu said softly, her arms wrapped around the man’s neck.
"After the baby is born, the child can play with you." The man coaxed gently, "You can continue to live whatever kind of life you want, you can still do whatever you want, I promise it won't affect your quality of life."
"Hmm... let me think about it..." Su Jiu hesitated.
"Wife, without children, everyone says I'm no good." The man looked at her with deep, dark eyes, his voice tinged with grievance.
"Huh? Who is it? Who has such a foul mouth!" Su Jiu's face scrunched up. "Tell me, and I promise I'll slap him to death!"
She wanted to slap that guy to death if he dared to talk badly about her man!
"That's what everyone says." Shen Mochen's voice sounded somewhat aggrieved. "After all, I'm ten years older than you. I'm getting old, and people doubt my abilities in that area."
"This is outrageous! Besides, you're not old at all! You have a great figure, you're sexy, and you're so handsome! I think they're just sour grapes!" Su Jiu was furious. "Okay, honey, don't be angry, don't be angry. They say you're not good enough, then you'll show them!"
"Really?!"
"Yes, really."
Su Jiu hooked her arms around the man's neck, tilted her head back, and kissed his handsome profile. "Honey, let's have a baby."
The next second, the man's eyes turned dark and intense, and his passionate kiss landed instantly.
"Mmm... Honey, go slower."
"Don't you want a baby?" the man asked in a hoarse voice, kissing the girl's delicate, porcelain-white earlobe. "If you want a baby, you can't be gentle."
"Well... okay then."
...
Su Jiu didn't expect Shen Mochen to be so forceful, actually pestering her all night long.
The next morning, she was so sleepy that she couldn't wake up at all.
She felt completely weak and lay in bed all day, not wanting to move at all. It was Shen Mochen who held her in bed and fed her food and water.
"It's all your fault," the girl sobbed. "It's all your fault for taking so long."
"I'm sorry, I was too hasty..." the man sighed, looking guilty.
Su Jiu thought about it and agreed. Shen Mochen really wanted a child, so that's why...
But she had already agreed, and she couldn't go back on her word.
A month later, Su Jiu was squatting on the toilet looking at the two lines on the line when she quickly called out, "Husband!"
"What's wrong?!" The man strode over.
"Honey, look! I'm pregnant!" Su Jiu exclaimed in surprise.
"I'll take you to the hospital for a check-up." Shen Mochen picked Su Jiu up from the toilet, straightened her skirt, and quickly took her to the hospital.
