It would be much more interesting if we played together.

anwhile...
Yao Mingyue and Liu Rushuang were dining together in a luxurious high-end Western restaurant.
The mother and daughter duo had a rare bit of leisure ti today.
Liu Rushuang took her daughter out for so steak.
"In the future, you should eat more high-protein foods and less carbs, you might still grow a bit," announced Liu Rushuang as she sliced the tender beef for her.
"It's useless, so people get bigger just from drinking bubble tea... Mom, am I really your biological child?"
Yao Mingyue looked sowhat disappointedly at her mother's ample chest.
It's said that won grow a bit after getting married and having children, but Yao Mingyue felt that she had indeed grown a bit after marrying Xu Musen in her past life.
Yet, it had nothing to do with a second growth spurt.
"Silly child, we look so much alike. If you weren't my own, you'd be a clone of mine," Liu Rushuang chuckled. "Stop worrying about it, you'll probably grow more after you have children; there's scientific evidence for that."
After getting pregnant, the surge in female hormones indeed promotes physical developnt, which could also be considered a kind of self-protection chanism of the body.
"Children..."
Yao Mingyue silently moved her lips. As she chewed on the beef in her mouth, she felt it growing tasteless with each bite.
"Mom, didn't the doctor say I have a cold constitution and that it might be difficult for to bear children later on...?"
Liu Rushuang's smile stiffened for a mont but promptly returned with a smile, "That was in the past, back then you were weak and emotional, but as you grow older, you will be fine."
"Mom, you don't have to hide it from , I know it's not just a weak constitution; I have a bad heart," Yao Mingyue said with a slight smile.
In fact, Liu Rushuang hadn't deliberately hidden it from her. Yao Mingyue's heart wasn't great, especially after an incident seven years ago, which had exacerbated her condition.
But with ti and careful nurturing, it generally didn't affect her normal life.
However, she was afraid of being stimulated, especially as she aged, she beca less tolerant of severe stress.
"Silly child, the doctor has already said that it's not a serious illness, it's like... how boys have kidney deficiency. Being a little deficient doesn't impact much, you can still live a normal life," Liu Rushuang offered a fitting taphor.
Yao Mingyue smiled, she had always thought the sa, but she knew her condition would worsen with age.
Although it still wouldn't affect daily life, bearing children could be sowhat dangerous.
"Yeah, daily life is not a problem, but reproduction might pose a problem..."
Yao Mingyue's voice was low, but Liu Rushuang still heard it.
Her heart also ached; for a woman, to conceive the crystallization of love, to have the status of a mother, was sothing to be proud of.
As a mother, she could understand how cruel it would be to take that ability away from soone.
"Don't overthink it, you'll be fine as long as you are careful, and if you're really worried, we can go to the hospital again," Liu Rushuang said comfortingly.
Yao Mingyue shook her head, "No need for more tests, I know my body well. Now, there are only two options: either take advantage of my youth and have children quickly, preferably before I turn twenty, or go through surgery and gamble on the odds..."
If the surgery failed, it might very well backfire.
Liu Rushuang looked tense, naturally as a mother, she hoped her daughter would choose the safest route.
Better to be childless than to take risks with one's life.
"Mom, Xu Musen, he really likes babies," Yao Mingyue smiled.
Liu Rushuang sighed softly, sensing sothing amiss.
"Have you and Xiao Sen recently, have you..."
Yao Mingyue didn't answer but just gently touched the loose strands of hair on her forehead, "Mom, I had a very special dream. I dread that I married Xu Musen, but I'm constantly worried about my health. If I get pregnant and don't survive, I won't see him again, or, if we have children, maybe he won't love as wholeheartedly..."
"Silly girl, you're even jealous of your own child now? You got enough of being jealous of your mom," Liu Rushuang said affectionately as she stroked her daughter's head.
She understood her daughter's paranoia, which stemd from a lack of security.
Yao Mingyue flashed a foolish smile, "So, I don't want to keep going on like this. If we really count, I actually owe him a child."
"It's just a dream, how does that an you owe anything?" Liu Rushuang couldn't help but feel a mix of amusent and disbelief.
"I hope it's just a dream..."
Yao Mingyue fell silent for a mont before her smile returned, "It's okay, Mom. Just talking about it for now; after all, I still have two years until I'm twenty."
Liu Rushuang looked at her daughter and quietly sighed. It was no wonder her daughter was becoming paranoid, with the family's upheaval and her own health issues, Xu Musen was the only one who could give her a sense of security back then.
If it were Liu Rushuang, she would also do anything to keep Xu Musen by her side, perhaps even more extre than her daughter.
Swirling her wine glass, Liu Rushuang's phoenix eyes narrowed, showing a hint of danger, "Maybe I should find so dicine..."
Of course, this dicine wasn't intended for Yao Mingyue.
Once the rice is cooked into rice pudding, kill two birds with one stone!
