She agreed to sleep with him?
The man was so excited he almost laughed out loud, and Kangkang understood her aning as well.
He nodded vigorously with a beaming smile, "Mom, I understand what you an, but I will definitely have a younger brother or sister."
An Ruo smiled faintly, feeling a tinge of regret in her heart.
Actually, she too hoped that Kangkang could have a sibling, but she couldn’t give him one, at least not for the ti being.
Kangkang, whose wish had been fulfilled, happily went off to sleep, and An Ruo stepped out of his bedroom to find Tang Yuchen waiting for her in the living room.
"That thing you said today, was it true?" the man asked, his gaze fixed on her with anticipation.
Before she could speak, he went on, "Actually, I’ve always wanted to have another child for Kangkang. Although we are his parents, we will have to leave him one day. If he has siblings, then when we are gone, he will have family with him and won’t be so alone."
An Ruo’s gaze flickered as she looked at him, and his deep eyes were also staring at her, as he continued, "Kangkang is our first child, and we owe him too much. An Ruo, I know I owe you too much as well, but can’t we get back together for the sake of our child? What Kangkang needs is a normal family, don’t you think so?"
An Ruo remained silent, his words striking at her weak spot.
She had never revealed to anyone that there was only one question in the bottom of her heart: how to give Kangkang a warm family.
The reason she had not dared to fully commit to Mo Hua, choosing to break up with him, and could not outright reject Tang Yuchen was all because she was struggling with how to give her child a normal ho.
If only Tang Yuchen had never hurt her and they had been very much in love, everything would have been perfect. She could avoid further hurt and provide her child with the perfect family, but such a wish was extravagant, since nothing in this world is too perfect.
She wasn’t being selfish by refusing to be with Tang Yuchen. She had considered that even if she got back together with Tang Yuchen for the sake of her child, if one day Tang Yuchen hurt her again and she fell apart, that would also be a huge harm to the child.
She was filled with fear for the future, and the repetition of the sa mistakes made her afraid. She had started to beco timid, fearful that taking one wrong step would lead to irreparable consequences.
Even if she was prepared for a disastrous outco, there was still a trace of fear in the bottom of her heart. That bit of fear had always affected her decisions and judgnt, and also kept her from compromising.
That sliver of fear was sturdier than a rock and more resilient than a reed, impervious to whatever force she applied.
Perhaps she could only spend her life timidly because of it.
"An Ruo, what’s wrong?" Tang Yuchen, seeing her silent, couldn’t help taking a step forward and asked her with concern.
An Ruo ca back to her senses and shook her head lightly, "It’s nothing."
She walked past him, silently entering her room. Tang Yuchen watched her retreating figure with a deep gaze, filled with regret.
An Ruo, if I knew that one day I would be tornted for you, then from the mont we t, I would have treated you with great love and protected you, not allowing you to suffer any harm.
But in this world, there is cause and effect, there is no ’if’...
Tang Yuchen followed her into the bedroom and saw her take a quilt and a pillow from the cupboard.
