Lu Weixi was caught off guard by his blunt response; if this had happened in the past, she would have been elated, hoping he wouldn’t come back except when it was time to contribute financially to the household.

But now, hearing his cold attitude and mocking tone, there was a part of her heart that certainly tightened.

“Sorry,” she quickly ended the call. She was afraid that if he continued, she wouldn’t be able to hold back from arguing with him or making a scene. He hadn’t cheated or made any other fundamental mistake; it was just a cold war.

She had never experienced this before. In the past, her love with Qin Zhigu was intense, and so was their breakup. But this was her first time encountering behavior where, despite mutual affection, they were engaged in a cold war, jabbing knives into each other’s hearts over a disagreement. She was the type who, if you really did something against my bottom line, would decisively cut through the chaos. But what she feared most was this slow boiling of the frog, this feeling of coldness and neglect.

For a moment, she even wavered, wondering if Qin Zhiyou really wanted a child that badly. After all, she and Qin Zhiyou had been married for five years, and the timing was right; even if it wasn’t the Qin Family, other families might also be pressuring for a child.

Gripping the steering wheel, she bit her lip and thought for a long time in the car, but no matter what, not getting pregnant before finishing her postgraduate entrance exams was her line in the sand. She couldn’t change her original plan because of Qin Zhiyou’s coercion. Once this issue was settled, her work and studies would be well-arranged. As for her mother-in-law, although she needed to consider her health, if the child really ended up in her womb, would she not acknowledge the situation?

However, she hesitated about whether to go home or to the old house.

After much thought, she turned the wheel and headed for the old house instead. Whether or not Qin Zhiyou would return was another matter, but Yang Mogui was always there. Although she couldn’t accept some of the things her mother-in-law did, she was still an elder, and it wouldn’t be right for her not to be involved with the Qin Family’s matters.

When she arrived at the Qin Family’s grand residence, Yang Mogui didn’t have much of a friendly face to show her, but she didn’t say anything particularly unpleasant either. Probably the only thing was that Qin Zhiyou hadn’t come back.

This was something Lu Weixi found hard to believe herself. She hadn’t expected that after being scolded by Yang Mogui over the phone last night for not valuing the family, Qin Zhiyou wouldn’t even come home today.

Yang Mogui didn’t discuss matters with her, and Qin Zhiyou hadn’t returned. Cai Yiren seemed keen to take a few jabs at her, but Lu Weixi ignored her. Left out in the cold at the old house, she barely ate dinner, didn’t finish her work, and most of her daily necessities had been sent back to the West Mountain villa — it felt like an eternity.

Yet, the next day, she obediently returned to the old house. She arrived earlier this time, which gave her the opportunity to join the Qin Family’s post-dinner discussion. As expected, Qin Weijia was practically exuding satisfaction towards Cai Yiren, and Qin Zhizha looked utterly tender. There was no need to guess; the child must be a boy.

Qin Weijia even said, “It’s not that we intended to hide it, just that the child hasn’t been born yet.”

The patriarch, seeing Lu Weixi, asked as usual, “When are you and Zhiyou planning to have children?”

“In the foreseeable future, there are no such plans.” The one who said this was Qin Zhiyou, having gotten out of the car and walked in from outside.
