Chapter 366: Chapter 366: Why Have a Third Child?

[So you mean if I go drinking, you’ll join me?]

[Of course, when will you come over? I can ask the bartender to mix a drink that suits you.]

[Aren’t all drinks the same?]

[Of course not. For a pure and naive fairy like you, you should drink something with a very low alcohol content, just like a light tipple.]

[Why don’t I just buy a bottle from the supermarket then?]

[It’s not the same, buying it yourself lacks ambiance, and besides, the store-bought ones don’t look as good as the mixed ones. I can have the bartender add lemon and mint for you, guaranteeing it’s like drinking a refreshment.]

Xi Wanfen laughed, [Alright, I’ll go when I have a chance.]

[Where are you now?]

Xi Wanfen simply said: [In the countryside, at my grandfather’s house.]

[No wonder the moon looks so beautiful there, you can’t see such a beautiful moon in Yun City.]

Xi Wanfen thought to herself: The moon is beautiful, but when you’re in a bad mood, it doesn’t matter what you look at.

Unexpectedly, Qiu Shuai sent another message: [It’s best to have company to appreciate the moon, you can’t do it alone.]

Xi Wanfen playfully said: [Who says I don’t have company? There are plenty of chickens and dogs in the yard, all companions.]

[Wow, that’s quite a lot.]

Without realizing it, Xi Wanfen and Qiu Shuai chatted until 12 o’clock, until she was so tired she could barely keep her eyes open, and then she fell asleep after putting her phone aside.

In Yun City, Qiu Shuai waited for more than ten minutes, and when he saw that Xi Wanfen wasn’t responding, he finally closed the chat.

...

Su Meixi and Gu Wei had fun on their way back, visiting each tourist attraction along the way.

They even returned home a day later than Xi Huarong and his group.

After returning, Xi Huarong specifically called Su Meixi, telling her not to take grandfather’s words to heart, as she was the real daughter in his eyes.

Xiao Fen also told Su Meixi that after they returned, her father had given Old Xi a stern criticism, and the other clan members had criticized him as well.

Su Meixi didn’t care anymore. After all, she wouldn’t go back to her grandfather’s house in the future. As Gu Wei said, life’s too short to be anything but happy.

...

On Saturday morning, Xiao Fen came over with some stuff to visit Su Meixi.

"Sister, aren’t you having any morning sickness?" Xiao Fen asked. "I see other people having a tough time being pregnant, always throwing up."

Su Meixi touched her stomach: "My appetite wasn’t very good for the first two months, but then it got better."

Xiao Fen said: "That’s good, it means your baby is here to repay kindness, and will be an obedient child. Raising them will definitely be easy."

"That’s not necessarily true, raising children is never easy."

"Sis, do you think you could be having twins?"

"Haha, how could that be possible?"

"Have you had an ultrasound?"

"Of course, I have."

Xiao Fen said: "One baby is fine, give birth to one next year, another the year after, and one more the year after that, then you’ve completed your task."

"Why would I have three?"

"The country allows it."

"Just because it’s allowed doesn’t mean I have to give birth," said Su Meixi. "What if I can’t take care of them? Will you help me?"

"Sure, I don’t really want to get married or have kids anyway. I’ll take care of them, and when I’m old, I’ll have my nieces and nephews to look after me."

"Don’t speak too soon. You’re young; why rule out marriage and children now?"

Xi Wanfen said somewhat dejectedly: "I’m afraid my next relationship will be with someone who expects me to look after his parents."

"It’s not like that in every family," said Su Meixi.

Xi Wanfen said: "Let’s not talk about these upsetting things anymore. Sister, do you think studying medicine is difficult?"

"You also work in a hospital, what do you think?"

Xi Wanfen said: "It’s too difficult; I wanted to get a doctor’s license, but every time I read the books, I feel sleepy!"

"The key is, do you love this profession?" Su Meixi asked.

After thinking for a while, Xi Wanfen said: "I can’t say I love it, but I feel like being a nurse for a lifetime is unambitious and boring. However, my parents think nursing is stable and suitable for a girl, so I became a nurse."

Su Meixi laughed and said, "It’s still about whether you like it or not. If you don’t, you can always change careers."

"Change to which career?" Xi Wanfen asked.

"That depends on what you prefer, but let me remind you, no matter what you do, there’s pressure, and every job that puts food on the table isn’t simple."

Xi Wanfen nodded.

She came today just to have a casual chat with Su Meixi, and in only half an hour, she saw her brother-in-law check in three times, probably because he had been sitting for too long.

"Sister, I better get going then; I don’t want to make my brother-in-law jealous."

"Pfft, why would he be jealous?"

"He just wants to monopolize you all the time."

"Listen to you."

"Really, I have to go now. Next time, I’ll come over when my brother-in-law isn’t home." Xi Wanfen picked up her bag and left.

...

As soon as Xi Wanfen left, Gu Wei brought a glass of juice over to Su Meixi, "Finally, she’s gone."

Su Meixi looked at him and couldn’t help but laugh, "What was that about just now? Why did you keep coming out to check? You made Xiao Fen think you had something against her."

Gu Wei sat down and embraced her, "I do have something against her, chattering for an hour without wanting to leave. You must be tired, lie down now."

"An hour? Wasn’t it just half an hour?"

"An hour, really."

"I am not a patient, I am just pregnant. Besides, if you were worried, you could have come and sit with us. Why stress her out?"

"If I came and sat with you all, those who don’t know might think I’m lusting after my sister-in-law."

"You’re so funny."

Gu Wei peeled an orange for her and then said, "This year for the New Year’s holiday, I’d like to visit Feng City."

"Sure," Su Meixi replied while eating the orange.

"Will you accompany me there?"

"Either way." Su Meixi’s only sentiment towards Feng City was for that large villa.

Gu Wei continued, "Let’s ask Old Xi to come with us."

"Him? Would he agree?"

"You’ve already accompanied them back to their hometown, so why can’t they accompany their daughter to her in-laws for a visit?"

Su Meixi understood Gu Wei’s intention. He wanted the Xi Family’s parents to back him up in front of his mother-in-law.

"Then will you speak to dad?"

"Sure, I’ll talk to him."

Su Meixi put half a sweet orange into his mouth.

...

Alone, Xi Wanfen left Su Meixi’s house and sat in her car, suddenly feeling a bit lost.

Her sister and brother-in-law were so lovey-dovey, it made her feel like a single pringle.

It’s strange—she never felt lonely when she was single before, but now she started to feel the loneliness.

Especially since she ran into Liang Zhanbai and Dang Li last night; those two were already publicly a couple at the hospital, with some of Xi Wanfen’s nurse friends even sympathizing with her unfair situation, calling it a seamless transition.

Xi Wanfen would say she didn’t care, but she did feel uncomfortable inside.

She simply drove to the mall.

After wandering around the mall for a while, she saw a store doing a live stream.

The hostess was a woman, trying on one piece of clothing after another, explaining as she went—the material of the clothes, the style of the sleeves, what looks good to pair them with, where to take pictures in them.

She found it interesting and watched for a while longer.

There were several people alongside the female host, some handing her clothes, some touching up her makeup, and some cueing her on which number to display next.

As Xi Wanfen watched, a man suddenly approached her.

"Miss, are you interested in live streaming?"

"I... I’m just looking."

"Miss, you have a good look about you, interested in joining us and becoming a hostess yourself?"
