Chapter 689: Chapter 689: You’re Not… Unable to Do It Anymore, Are You?
“Yeah, yeah! Bro, where’s my little nephew!” He Ziyi excitedly asked.
“I’ll let him et you all tomorrow,” He Jingyao said with a faint smile.
Liu Minjun covered her chest in disbelief, “So, Zhixi really isn’t dead?”
He Jingyao paused before nodding gently.
“This…” Liu Minjun felt a complex swirl of emotions and found herself at a loss for words.
But no matter what, this was good news.
“Then where is Sister-in-Law now?” He Ziyi asked.
Over the years, her autism had almost entirely improved, but she was still shy and reluctant to et strangers, with few close people around her. Even though Su Zixi had been gone for four years, she was still soone He Ziyi could feel close to and trust.
“Sister-in-Law…” He Jingyao repeated the words, his tone sowhat playful, “you’ll et her sooner or later.”
He Ziyi sighed in slight disappointnt, “Isn’t my little nephew coming over with Sister-in-Law tomorrow?”
“She refuses,” said He Jingyao, his lips curving into a smirk as he uttered these two words.
“What?” Liu Minjun was astonishingly surprised and imdiately let her imagination run wild, “Could she have completely forgotten you? Or has she remarried?”
As soon as she finished speaking, she caught her son’s sowhat deep gaze.
She coughed, tactfully refraining from asking more and instead nudged Ziyi, “Go squeeze so juice.”
Ziyi, who had been all ears to their conversation, was a bit confused, “The servants can squeeze it.”
“Ziyi, you’re wrong to say that,” Liu Minjun scolded seriously, “Even if you’re a rich young lady who doesn’t need to lift a finger, squeezing a cup of juice is a small task you can do yourself, right? How can you be so lazy?”
Ziyi, taken aback by her words, stood up and headed to the kitchen. Only when she had cut the fruit and put it into the juicer did she realize her mother must have wanted to divert her attention so she could talk with her brother!
…
Watching Ziyi walk away, Liu Minjun couldn’t wait to ask, “Son, your father said that after this surgery, it’s unlikely that you’ll be able to have children, is that true?”
“Maybe,” He Jingyao said blandly.
Liu Minjun’s eyes went wide with shock, reflecting imnse sympathy, “Son, you’re not… impotent, are you? Is that why Zhixi refuses to co back to you?”
He Jingyao’s brows jumped fiercely!
He rubbed his brow, his voice low and helpless, “No, I’m perfectly fine! Mom, what are you thinking about?”
“Then why would your father say you might not be able to have children?” Liu Minjun sighed, “He was quite angry and still suspects that the child is one you’ve brought from an orphanage to fool him, especially since you haven’t shown him the paternity test… Before I ca yesterday, he insisted I make sure of it.”
In fact, ever since she returned to Yanzhou City with Ziyi a few days ago, He Yirong had been constantly nagging her about it, to the point where her ears ached. He Yirong had wanted to stop He Jingyao from undergoing the surgery, but over the years, his control power had increasingly fallen short compared to He Jingyao’s… So, he could only brood alone.
However, Liu Minjun understood He Yirong’s concerns. After all, adopting a child from an orphanage… that certainly sounded like sothing He Jingyao could do.
