Chapter 340 – Feeling relieved, the two of them travelled the world. (1)
After the marriage, Yan Shuyu had discussed with the boss about having a “third child”.
That was right. If they were to have another child, she would see that as her third. Ever since the wedding, the little male lead had no problem changing the way he referred to her from “Aunty Yan” to Mom. With another child happily calling her Mom every day, Yan Shuyu started feeling like she truly had two sons.
The little young master might look more and more solemn when he was outside of the house, but he certainly had the youngest child feel when he was in front of Yan Shuyu. Ye Jiaheng had started grade school officially and felt that he was now a man. Slowly, he was no longer comfortable with gluing to his mother all the time like he used to. Zhou Yi, just six months younger than him, did not have the same issue. The more mature and independent Ye Jiaheng was, the more Zhou Yi seemed to be children. This had further Yan Shuyu’s feel of “the older child was all grown but the younger one was still coquettish.”
As such, she already had an older and younger son and they could keep each other company perfectly. She felt that even if the family own mines, this would still fall into the unnecessary hassle category.
As grand as her reasonings were, the most important one was that yay still felt like she was a baby herself, one that was forever in her early twenties. She didn’t want to have another child. Not in this lifetime. She had already forgotten about giving birth the first time and she had no intention of revisiting that.
Zhou Qinhe acknowledged Yan Shuyu’s excuse. Both little kiddos changed the way they referred to the two of them at the same time. Even though Ye Hengjia did not adopt his last name, but he had been referring to him as “Dad” everywhere they went. He would only refer to him as “Daddy Zhou” when Ye Rongchen was around in order to distinguish between the two of them.
Zhou Qinhe had already treated the two children equally even before they had gotten married. As such, he was a bit speechless when she used that as a reason to not have a “third.” Unlike some other rich people, he would not ask his wife to have lots of children just because they were wealthy. That being said, he still wished to have a child between the two of them.
Surely, they didn’t need more sons in the family. But wouldn’t a girl just be perfect?
When Yan Shuyu gave him the excuse from the moral high ground, even the articulate Boss Zhou was speechless for a little while. While he was contemplating how to convince her, she, too, was working hard at it.
She had readied another perfect reason. Both children had finally grown up and even Xiao Yi was about to attend grade school. They could finally have some time to themselves instead of focusing all of their time and energy on the children. If they were to have a baby right now, that would be another 7~8 years before they would be able to have some free time from them. Wouldn’t it be better to enjoy their own time instead?
Perhaps Boss Zhou was moved by the “time to themselves” part. He finally double checked with her, “You really don’t want to have another?”
Yan Shuyu replied with an affirmative “yes”. Zhou Qinhe felt a bit regretful about that but finally consented.
Whatever that he had promised Yan Shuyu, he pretty much never go back on his words. As such, Yan Shuyu was able to have her wish and spent over ten years with the boss without being bogged down with childcare. She did not find her days boring at all. Quite the contrary, she was quite happy every day.
Nevertheless, life has always been unpredictable. When she was at the “high risk” age of 38 and the boss was well into his forties and had pretty much given up having children, she was pregnant unexpectedly.
It was for real this time. They had run out of cond*ms one day and she figured that it was during her safe period so she didn’t take the morning after pills either. After all, neither she nor the boss were spring chicks anymore and that was exactly how the accident happened.
Yan Shuyu was completely dumbfounded when the result came back. Even the three other men in the house was stupefied with the boss perhaps the one most pleasantly surprised.
