Chapter 1054: Chapter 1056: Trust (6) Chapter 1054: Chapter 1056: Trust (6) Lu Weixi was shocked. She had not expected Qin Zhiyou to have such thoughts and was montarily unable to collect her senses.
“What did you say?”
In a leisurely tone, Qin Zhiyou said, “Actually, after giving it so careful thought, I really am not interested in children. I believe I’m naturally one of those people who detest children. Kids are cute, but that’s only when they aren’t crying or throwing tantrums. If they start crying and you can’t soothe them no matter what, isn’t that troubleso? Plus, they need to be fed, they want you to play with them, and there are diapers to change. And when they grow up, it’s another headache if they’re not intelligent or obedient. Thinking back to when I was a naughty child, I sotis want to spank myself, so why would I want to have another one like ? For boys, I worry they’ll adopt bad habits or not follow the right path. If I had a son like Qin Zhizhi, I’d rather not have children at all. But with girls, I worry they’ll get duped or discriminated against. Imagine having a beautiful little princess and so pig cos along and sses with her, I’d have to break that boy’s legs! Moreover, I don’t have that much ti to spend with them, and it’s sad for a child to grow up without their father’s involvent. All things considered, it’s better not to have children.”
Lu Weixi was stunned by his lengthy rationale. Her thoughts stalled, and it took her a while to respond, “Weren’t you the one who said we wouldn’t talk about this again until we were in our forties or fifties? Then if I’m unable to have children, you’d find soone else?”
After all, the matter of his private eting with Fang Rushuang was still a thorn in her side, so it was natural for her to have these doubts. If they embraced a Double Inco, No Kids lifestyle for twenty years, and then Qin Zhiyou found soone else to have children with, wouldn’t her situation be even worse?
Qin Zhiyou didn’t deny it, “I indeed do not want children right now, and I am quite sincere and firm in this resolve. But in another ten or twenty years, who knows whether I would regret this decision. Even if I do, it’s not a big deal. Modern dicine is advanced, and if a woman takes good care of herself, it’s still possible to have children in her forties or fifties, though it might be slightly more challenging. But at least for now, and foreseeably in the future, I really do not plan to have children. No amount of persuasion will work, even if my grandfather threatens with the family fortune, I don’t want them.”
Lu Weixi bowed her head, feeling sowhat bewildered. Qin Zhiyou’s words were like jumping from one extre to another. She hadn’t said she didn’t want children, only that it wasn’t in her current plan. Perhaps in three to five years, once her job stabilized, she would gradually start considering these issues.
But Qin Zhiyou had outright rejected this idea, pushing the tiline back by twenty years. It might even be that he wouldn’t want children after those twenty years either, possibly settling for a lifelong Double Inco, No Kids situation. Not that she was a slave to the idea of having children—they would be nice to have, but she could also live without them. It just seed that Qin Zhiyou’s decision was a bit…
“Moreover, the issue of children has caused conflicts between us more than once, both now and in the past.”
At the ntion of this, Lu Weixi fell silent. After all, five years ago, they had stood in opposition for a long period over the matter of children. Even now, the mory of that dispute still sent shivers down her spine.
“If you want children, then you should have them now. If you don’t, then consider that you’ve agreed to my decision. From now on, in our lives, there won’t be the option of having children.”
