Chapter 205: Having A Son Is Safer!
Why did things turn out this way? Little sister-in-law, you can’t do that! Boss won’t agree to that either!
He fretted anxiously but, at the same time, he dared not approach the couple. The only thing he could do was stretch his ears to listen further.
“Hey, tell me. Why don’t you want a kid now?” After turning down his volume, he pressed the topic.
“It’s... It’s too soon to have a child now,” she replied with furrowed brows.
“Too soon?” His pitch rose by a few decibels.
“Yes... that’s right. If we were to have a child now, we’d need to spend all our time on the kid. This means that we wouldn’t have any time to have fun, right?” she answered cautiously. This was not the first time they had discussed this matter, and she had already made her stance clear to him... action

Once a child came along, she would have to spend all her time and energy on the baby. Having a child now would mean losing her freedom early.
Her reply was loud enough for Xu Xu to catch its entirety.
Fun? They want to have fun? Are little-sister-in-law and boss refusing to have the child because they want to have fun?
This won’t do!
Mo Jiangye pursed his lips and locked his gaze on her as he thought, Is this the reason she doesn’t want to have a child?
“You are still young and full of energy so there’s no need to hurry, right?”
“Are you hinting that I am not up to the task?” His pitch had risen to a dangerous level as he studied her with narrowed eyes.
Not up to the task? What kind of task is he referring to? What could he not do? Darn! Don’t tell me our boss cannot...
No... No... If our boss is impotent, that’s all the more reason for little sister-in-law to have a child now. Otherwise, they will probably not have any children in the future!
Xu Xu continued to lean his ear against the side of the pillar, refusing to move. Images of the possible scenarios surrounding the conversation he had been eavesdropping filled his mind.
“I didn’t mean that!”
“Then what were you trying to hint at? You must have had this thought deep inside! Tell me, what were you trying to tell me?”
“...”
“Speak. What did you want to tell me?”
She pushed his arm away. Looking at him seriously, she said, “You have the final say. If you are saying it wasn’t Lin Jingxuan, then it wasn’t him. If you say it was him, then so be it. I won’t argue or get into any bets with you. Your word counts. I mean it.”
He sulked. “I...”
“You are capable. In fact, you are very capable... Exceptionally capable,” she quickly added after her solemn declaration.

“Alright, then we’ll forget about having a child for now. We can raise a kid later in life,” he concluded without mincing his words.
His follower, who had been eavesdropping on them, immediately objected.
“That won’t do, Chief! How can you murder a youngling just because you want to have fun?”
The woman did not know what to say.
The man merely glimpsed obliquely at him and ignored his protest.
“Chief... Chief, hear me out. If you find the kid troublesome to care for, you can pass the child to your servants... No, no, we’ll help look after the child. Your brothers will help take care of your kid!” Xu Xu tried to persuade him eagerly as he approached the couple.
The man sniggered. “Why would I let my son be raised by you or a servant?”
The woman, who was subdued, interjected. “Why must it be a son? Why can’t we have a daughter?”
“A daughter would be fine. A daughter would be good. Little sister-in-law, we’ll take care of the girl for you as long as you are willing to have a child.”
His chief rebutted coldly. “A girl will be taken away by a chap when she grows up. If we had a son, I could teach him how to win over a girl instead. Having a boy would be safer.”
He would prefer not to have a daughter...
