"I really don't want to get pregnant again. If we're going to have another child, it should wait a few years."
"Sweetheart, I asked the doctor, and I have a way. Really, I can't bear for you to go through childbirth again. No one is more important than you."
"How did you ask the doctor?"
"Don't ask, the doctor said the chances of getting pregnant are very small that way. Just do it when you're having those few days. It won't interfere with anything otherwise."
"Wei Kaiyun, do you really have such thick skin?"
"What's the big deal? When I'm holding my wife, these are the thoughts that come to mind."
As Wei Kaiyun spoke, he moved in action, wrapping Jiang Xinyu in a passionate kiss.
Realizing his intentions, Jiang Xinyu quickly stopped him, "It's daylight now, calm down."
Wei Kaiyun was genuinely excited but knew not to push his wife, so he lay flat, breathing deeply to calm himself.
It took a while before Wei Kaiyun turned over to look at his wife beside him, "Sweetheart, you don't need to worry about losing weight. You're perfect as you are."
Jiang Xinyu ignored him. It wasn't just about losing weight anymore; she was thinking about reducing the fat on her belly, or it would look too unappealing.
Throughout the afternoon, Wei Kaiyun was like a shadow, always by Jiang Xinyu's side.
The little girl might have already gotten used to his voice, as he never stopped talking to his daughter when changing her diaper before feeding.
This little girl is even more trouble-free than Shi Jing; you almost never hear her cry, even if she wakes up, she just lies there quietly.
Shi Jing is now constantly with Shang Zhenkun; every day he sees Master Shang practicing martial arts, he gets especially excited watching from the side and sometimes even imitates the moves.
Shang Zhenkun is particularly pleased with him, often enlightening him, proving to be quite talented, reciting the Book of Songs and Laozi effortlessly.
Sometimes his son would blurt out a few lines from the Three Character Classic.
Jiang Xinyu is very satisfied; now that the children are young, the main thing is for them to grow up happily while subtly instilling knowledge, without being too deliberate.
The evening that Wei Kaiyun had been longing for finally arrived, "Sweetheart, I finally have you again."
Jiang Xinyu was still immersed in the afterglow, and upon hearing Wei Kaiyun's words, she simply gave him a sidelong glance. This guy, really.
Once the month passed, it was almost time to go to school, and Jiang Xinyu was pressed to read.
During a break, she remembered she had two letters.
She opened She Xiaoyun's first and saw the news of Lv Beiguang's divorce; she could hardly believe her eyes. Was this a joke? Why does it seem like Lv Beiguang's attitude towards life is problematic?
However, in She Xiaoyun's letter, there were sighs; this woman had a mark left in her heart for that man.
Thinking about it, she felt She Xiaoyun wasn't a senseless person; since she was married, she wouldn't do anything bad.
Then she opened Lv Beiguang's letter, two full pages, after reading it, Jiang Xinyu was speechless. Almost thirty, yet he seemed so immature, still like a child.
However, on the whole, there were no issues, putting people at ease.
It's really a pity for that woman; after all, she persevered for over ten years, why did she give up after they became a couple?
"Perseverance leads to success; as long as one's attitude is right, eventually they'll become a family."
Lv Beiguang was indeed a rarely seen beautiful man, quite attractive, though she fancied him mostly for his looks, right?
Wei Kaiyun noticed his wife's distraction and picked up the letter on the table to read it through. "That Secretary She still hasn't given up?"
"Anyone with eyes would know."
"So Lv Beiguang knows too?"
"He definitely knows." To Wei Kaiyun, Lv Beiguang was still a thorn; he couldn't forget the time his wife stared distractedly at Lv Beiguang's back. That was the only time she showed a different expression towards another man. Of course, he was very serious about Lv Beiguang. It's just good looks, what's good about being a pretty boy? Only fools like him.
"So Secretary She really wasted so many years. What do you think Lv Beiguang was thinking?"
"How would I know, probably just because of the child, or maybe he didn't fancy the one who liked him."
"But Secretary She is so attractive, how could he not fancy her? If I were a man, I'd like someone like Secretary She."
"My wife is much better than her. She's just a pretty face, nothing else."
"Haha, what do I have? I don't even have a pretty face."
Jiang Xinyu intended to end the conversation, but Wei Kaiyun peeked at Lv Beiguang's letter again and got seriously jealous. Why mention your divorce to my wife?
"Sweetheart, what do you think of Lv Beiguang?"
"Him? I think he's a bit immature; did he say marriage was a joke? I think his attitude towards life is problematic."
"Sweetheart, is he good-looking?"
"Yes, he's the most handsome man I've ever met, but his life is a mess. Secretary She is right, doesn't he intend to find someone now? Does he want to be alone forever? That's not good; his thinking is flawed."
Wei Kaiyun felt much less jealousy after hearing his wife's words.
"Perhaps it's for the children."
"Children are indeed a major issue, but is life only about living for the children? What about the future in the later years?"
As Lv Beiguang's friend, Jiang Xinyu truly had these thoughts, though Lv Beiguang's worry was justified. If he remarried, having children later could truly lead to neglect of the former children.
"There's nothing bad about living for the children; that Secretary Lv is quite self-loving." Wei Kaiyun also couldn't deny it;
Just judging by looks, he could play through life, but he was pretty self-disciplined.
Tonight, Wei Kaiyun was even more unrestrained, overwhelming Jiang Xinyu.
"Take it easy. Aren't you getting a bit old?" Jiang Xinyu said casually, but in Wei Kaiyun's heart, it was completely different — he thought his wife was despising him for being old.
This won't do; he can't let his wife have such thoughts. So the next morning, Jiang Xinyu couldn't even get up.
By the time the night came again, Jiang Xinyu wanted to refuse, but how could she be Wei Kaiyun's match? He eventually had his way.
Wei Kaiyun contentedly held his wife; the temperature was just right, neither too hot nor cold, and she was willing to let him hold her.
"Sweetheart, Xinyu, having you in this life, I'm content."
Why does he keep contemplating this? This guy's been reflecting a lot lately.
"I also feel quite happy to have met you. Being with you, I don't regret it."
"Sweetheart, don't worry, I will make sure you won't regret it."
"Hmm, I'm quite satisfied with you now. In the future, we'll see, as long as it's not a fundamental issue, anything can be fixed. But if you ever stop loving me and become unfaithful, I will absolutely, absolutely never forgive."
