nChapter 321 – All of my motherly love will be given to you (2)

nBefore 6 PM, Song Tingshen came to pick her up. Right after he had gotten into the car, he asked, “Why is your face so serious? Is business bad? Or did the employees upset you?”

n“No.” Ruan Xia sighed and touched her very flat abdomen. “The girls in the store were talking about childbirth today.”

nChildbirth?

nSong Tingshen thought it over and asked, “Didn’t you say that your employees are all unmarried?”

n“They were asking me about it. They wanted to learn from my experience.”

nSong Tingshen looked a bit awkward. He didn’t remember how Ruan Xia looked with a big belly. It had been several years since her pregnancy, and he had been busy with work at the time. Moreover, there weren’t any feelings between them then, so he didn’t spend much time with her. Still, he had done his best to take time out of his schedule to go with her on every check up. Although he didn’t remember how she looked when she was pregnant, he remembered the first ultrasound image and how he felt when he saw Little Wang for the first time.

nOf course, he couldn’t tell her that he had forgotten how she looked then. Otherwise, if she wanted to settle accounts with him, he would really suffer.

n“Hey, do you want to have another child?” Ruan Xia was a bit nervous when she asked this question. It was important for a couple to be on the same page when it came to how many children they have. Otherwise, if one wanted children and the other one didn’t, there would be a fundamental deep disagreement between them.

nSong Tingshen didn’t understand why Ruan Xia would suddenly ask this question.

n“It’s impossible for me to say that I wouldn’t want to have another child.” In the past, Song Tingshen had thought it was impossible to have a second child with Ruan Xia. They were only nominal husband and wife and didn’t have a good relationship. In that situation, it wasn’t suitable for having another child. But, it was different now. They had a very good relationship…

nHowever, Song Tingshen knew that Ruan Xia didn’t want to have another child. During the one-month period after giving birth, she complained to the nanny and said she wouldn’t have another child even if a knife was placed on her neck. That was one of the reasons.

nAlthough Ruan Xia didn’t say anything now, she was very insistent on taking safety measures when they did anything at night. If he wanted to take a risk, fool her, or occasionally not take safety measures, that was harder than leaping to the heavens. She even avoided doing it on ovulation days. As a man in his thirties, Song Tingshen understood why she did all that.

n“But the decision is all up to you.” Song Tingshen added, “It’s okay if you decide alone. You would be the one that would suffer the hardship of pregnancy and the pain of childbirth, not me.”

nRuan Xia was quite happy to hear this. She moved closer to him and rewarded him with a kiss.

nThe more she understood him, the more she felt that she had found treasure. A treasure that couldn’t be found even if she used a lantern.

nSong Tingshen knew that she was satisfied with his answer. He smiled and said, “Thank you for the reward, Boss.”

nThey didn’t have any difference of opinion on this issue. Although Song Tingshen liked children, he knew the hardships of pregnancy and childbirth. He wouldn’t stand from his position and ask Ruan Xia to satisfy his wants. Besides, he was very satisfied with his current life. If she hadn’t brought it up, he wouldn’t have discussed this matter with her.

nBefore he started the car, Ruan Xia hugged his arm and leaned on his shoulder. In a very sweet tone, she said, “Every time I hear about those men that force their wives to have children, I think you’re extremely wonderful.”

nSong Tingshen pretended to be angry. “It’s only at those times you think I’m wonderful?”

n“No, no.” After being together for a long time, they had a good understanding of each other’s personalities. Ruan Xia knew that he wasn’t angry. “Many people fail to respect and care for their wives. To them, marriage is for the sake of having a child and women have uteruses just for giving birth… I’m very happy that you respect me. That makes me happier than you liking me.”

nSong Tingshen stroked her long hair. “Any normal man can do this. Mrs. Song, it’s too easy to satisfy you. Still, that’s good too.” It meant that she could see his every little bit of care and kindness to her.
