After Mei Ruo Lin had a good rest, she went into Ning Meng Yao’s room and chased Qiao Tian Chang out. Then, the two chatted in private.
Mei Ruo Lin looked at the sleeping child in his bed, and said with a smile, “This child is so cute. Have you got a name for him?”
“I want to call him little monkey but Tian Chang didn’t agree to it. His name is Qiao Mo Shang. We just hope that he won’t ever get hurt in his life.” Ning Meng Yao said while smiling at her son.
Mei Ruo Lin looked at how motherly Ning Meng Yao was and she was suddenly envious: “Is this how parents feel?”
“Huh? What?”
“They would keep thinking about their child like you?” Even the child’s name was a blessing from his parents, and everything that Qiao Tian Chang had done for him, she really thought that this was the luckiest child.
Ning Meng Yao nodded: “Of course, every parent certainly wants to give the best to their children.” Ning Meng Yao recounted what Qiao Tian Chang had done in the past half a month.
When she heard about Qiao Tian Chang taking care of the child, such as changing his diapers, his clothes, helping him to take a bath, etc., Mei Ruo Lin felt unbelievable. Qiao Tian Chang was the great general. In the eyes of others, he was the masculine kind of person. But what Ning Meng Yao mentioned made her change her perspective on Qiao Tian Chang.
“Sister Mei, in fact, I think you and your brother-in-law should also have a child. It is not as terrible as you think. You see this little monkey, isn’t he cute?” Ning Meng Yao pointed at her son, who was sleeping soundly, and said seriously.
Mei Ruo Lin glanced at the baby, he was indeed very cute. He had a chubby little face, much like Ning Meng Yao’s, long eyelashes, and his two small arms placed on each side of his cheeks. He looked as if he was surrendering, no matter how she looked at him, he was really adorable.
Truthfully, Mei Ruo Lin knew that Yu Feng had always wanted a child, but because she didn’t want one, that was why she never mentioned it, and she even pretended not to care at all.
But when Ning Meng Yao became pregnant, they visited and joked that they also wanted to give birth to one. At that time, Mei Ruo Lin still said that she didn’t want to. Although Yu Feng was smiling, she knew that deep down in his heart, he was disappointed.
“Sister Mei, you have stayed here for a while now, I’m sure you’ve seen for yourself whether having a child is really as scary as you think.” Looking at Mei Ruo Lin’s distracted look, Ning Meng Yao knew she must be over-thinking, so she looked deeply into her eyes and said seriously.
Mei Ruo Lin was silent for a long time, then she nodded, “OK.”
From getting to know Mei Ruo Lin until marrying her, and until now, Yu Feng had treated her very well.
She didn’t want to have a child, so he asked Qing Shuang to look for contraceptive pills, but because Qing Shuang said that it was not good for a woman to take too much of this medicine, he decided to take it instead.
When Mei Ruo Lin thought about all the things he did for her, she felt sorry for him.
“Yao Er, do you think that I am treating Yu Feng badly?” Mei Ruo Lin hesitated for a moment, then she looked at Ning Meng Yao and asked.
“Why do you say that?”
“I know he wants a child. He did not care if it was a boy or a girl, as long as it is our own child, but I…” Mei Ruo Lin explained, as her head sank, seemingly unable to continue what she wanted to say.
If it was another man, he would have seen other women by now, right? But Yu Feng did not, he stayed by her, and waited for a day that she would agree to have a child together.
Ning Meng Yao thought for a while, she looked at Mei Ruo Lin and said: “My brother-in-law is almost thirty years old. It is only natural that he would want to be a dad, but he has never forced you. He won’t force you if you don’t want to, but Sister, have you ever thought that what you are doing is really unfair to him?”
In fact, Yu Feng did not like to act coquettishly, he only did so to attract Mei Ruo Lin’s attention.
“I know.”
“Also, Sister Mei, I think you seem to pay too little attention to brother-in-law’s affairs. It makes me think that you don’t love brother-in-law at all. It is always him who puts the effort and understands you.” Ning Meng Yao did not want to get too involved in their matter, but since Mei Ruo Lin talked about it today, she went ahead to talk about it.
Mei Ruo Lin stiffened and sighed, “It’s not that I don’t love him, but I don’t know how to express it. Well, no, actually it’s more like I don’t feel secure.”
Her parents were also once a well-known couple, but what happened in the end? Her father betrayed her mother anyway. And it hurt her mother so badly that she became devastated.
