Lu Beiyuan's steps halted before he sat down on the sofa.
It was then that he spoke up, "Xingxing… has she ever mentioned this?"
Han Rumo said, "We brought it up first, asked her what she thought, and she said that Xixi was too lonely by herself, and if possible, she'd like to have another one to keep Xixi company."
Lu Beiyuan hummed in response.
Old Master Lu asked him, "Don't just hum; what's your attitude? Tell your grandfather and uncle as well."
Lu Beiyuan had no choice but to say, "I feel… that childbirth is too painful, and I can't bear to see Nanxing suffer again."
"Pregnancy and childbirth are indeed tough," Han Rumo said. "But both my dad and I will stay in the country to take care of Nanxing's health. Besides, the second child is usually much easier."
The Old Master of the Lu Family also said, "That's the way it is. Our family respects Nanxing's wishes; if Nanxing wants to have another child, she will; if she doesn't want to, one is enough."
