Epilogue 3.3: Year After Year

Mo Sheng’s life after marriage was good. Yi Mei was most envious of her flexible working hours and also that she can run around outside during working hours. As for her frequently going conveniently to look for her husband to have a meal or calling a driver with the surname He to pick her up after traveling far and so on, Yi Mei has already gave up on being envious of her. Mo Sheng accompanied her to go for a check-up today so Yi Mei took this opportunity to complain once again: “You are still the happiest, so carefree. I am afraid I won’t have time to go shopping soon as I’ll need to stay at home and take care of the kid every day. Arrrgh, this is all Zhang Xu’s fault because I don’t have the slightest urge to have a child so early.”

“It is not early, this is the best time to give birth.” Mo Sheng said.

Actually, Yi Mei was not really complaining so when Mo Sheng said that, she felt happy. She was concerned about Mo Sheng: “Then when are you and Yi Chen planning to have a child?”

“I’ve always wanted ah.”

Yi Mei understood their situation, thought for a moment before saying: “Mo Sheng, do you think it could be because of auntie and uncle? As a result, Yi Chen is a little conflicted about having a child?”

Mo Sheng said in anguish: “I don’t know. I guess there must be a little la. Aiya, let nature take its course.”

Yi Mei gave birth to a daughter. The little girl was very cute and fair. Mo Sheng liked her very much and visited Yi Mei every few days.

Sometimes, Yi Chen went with her, but when he was busy, he picked her up at night. The little girl was very fond of her uncle. Whenever Yi Chen came, she would “squeak,” wanting her uncle to carry her. At that time, the aunt and everyone else can only stand aside.

Yi Mei smiled when looking at her daughter pestering her uncle. She turned her head to speak to Mo Sheng: “I can see that Yi Chen doesn’t dislike kids. Shouldn’t you find an opportunity to have a proper chat with him?”

Mo Sheng looked at her and nodded her head.

She cannot conceal what was in her heart. Thus, after they came out of Yi Mei’s house, she can’t help but ask about the doubts in her heart: “Yi Chen, you don’t like kids?”

“No.”

“Is it because of the relationship with your father and mother?”

She did not beat around the bush, only holding Yi Chen’s hand while saying this.

Yi Chen frowned: “What foolish thoughts are you having?”

“Then why?”

Yi Chen stopped in his tracks and fixed his attention on her. He wanted to say something, but said nothing. A trace of rarely seen awkwardness gradually appeared on his face. In the end, he said in a helpless tone: “I am thinking that we’ve just got together so I don’t want another person to join in the fun.”

Mo Sheng widened her eyes. Huh, what kind of reason was that.

As it turned out, that was the reason.

Then she could not help but laugh.

Yi Chen felt a bit annoyed and said: “Since you are so desperate to have a child, then we’ll have one.”
