716: Chapter 716 Lin Yuan’s Request!

What?

Wu Jie’s eyebrows were deeply knitted, as if he had just heard a hallucination.

Lin Yuan’s cheeks turned a bright red, utterly embarrassed.

“I said, could you help me get pregnant and have a baby?”

Fearing Wu Jie hadn’t heard her clearly, Lin Yuan repeated her request.

This time, she spoke even more slowly and articulated her words clearer.

Upon hearing this, Wu Jie’s eyes widened in shock.

He nearly mistook the accelerator for the brakes.

In haste, he signaled to turn and pulled over to the side of the road, bringing the car to a stop.

Gazing blankly ahead, his mind was in complete turmoil.

Thunder roared in his head, dammit!

The cultured, dignified, and beautiful Lin Yuan had actually said such a thing.

This was simply too unbelievable!

And…

Help her get pregnant?

What did that even mean?

Seeing Wu Jie’s confusion, Lin Yuan quickly explained:

“You know about Qingya’s and my situation, I’m with her…

we’re both women!”

“Qingya has made it clear that she doesn’t want to get pregnant, but I really like children.”

“But wanting to have a child, I don’t have that option with her, so…”

Wu Jie turned to look at Lin Yuan in astonishment, taking in her radiant beauty.

“So you chose me?”

Lin Yuan’s face flushed crimson, and she bowed her head in embarrassment, nodding slightly.

Wu Jie opened the sunroof and lit a cigarette.

He took several deep drags but couldn’t quell the excitement within him.

Damn it.

Back when I had no money, no status, no background, the epitome of a loser.

Even if there were beautiful women everywhere, who the hell would care about you?

But now.

The Lin Yuan I thought I could maintain a pure friendship with, actually…

Motherfucker!!

Is this guy hitting a streak of luck?

Or is it that married men with money and capability are particularly appealing to women?

Wu Jie exhaled a long sigh and asked in a contemplative tone:

“Why me?

Couldn’t you find anyone else?”

Lin Yuan’s eyes danced with a gentle brilliance.

“I used a selection process and ultimately chose you!”

“It has to be someone I know, right?

There are lots of young and vigorous male students at Tianyuan University, but I’m not familiar with them, so I had to pass on that.”

Wu Jie nodded in understanding.

“Of course, you can’t just ask a stranger for this!!”

Lin Yuan sighed: “Exactly!

I’ve read the news; the young people nowadays are too reckless!”

Wu Jie blew a smoke ring.

“What about the second reason?”

Lin Yuan shyly said: “The doctors suggest that the man should be physically strong and virile, but some of my male colleagues and old classmates are now either too overweight or lack exercise due to sedentary office work, some have even started to go bald.”

Wu Jie felt his face heat up.

“Lastly, for the best prenatal and postnatal care, thinking of the next generation, you’d want to choose someone cheerful, intelligent, capable, and accomplished, to ensure the best possible genetic inheritance…”

Wu Jie couldn’t help but feel the urge to laugh before she even finished her sentence.

What the hell!

All these ‘high-sounding’ reasons?

But…

On second thought, it seemed quite normal.

It made sense for Lin Yuan, a highly desirable woman, to be picky when choosing a father for her child.

Strict selection, preferring absence over something mediocre.

It was perfectly reasonable!

After all, with her personality, she wouldn’t just go to a nightclub or bar and pick up any guy.

After listening, Wu Jie let out a long sigh.

“Lin, I know you’re not getting any younger; you’re almost twenty-eight, right?”

Lin Yuan bit her lip gently and hummed in affirmation.

“Yes!

Even if I get pregnant soon, after a ten-month pregnancy, I’ll be twenty-nine when I give birth next year, which puts me at borderline advanced maternal age!”

“You practice medicine, don’t you?

Then you must also be aware of the great risks involved with high-age pregnancies!”

“I really, really love children, and the more time I spend with the kids at the orphanage, the more I want to have one of my own!”

Wu Jie nodded and said: “I understand all that; I could tell this afternoon when you were with Yuan Zihan.”

“No matter how well-behaved, sweet, and understanding they are, they’re not your own flesh and blood, and they can never call you ‘Mom’!”

Lin Yuan nodded repeatedly: “They’ve always treated me as their sister, and I’ve always seen them as my younger brothers and sisters.

They grow up day by day, and I, too, am getting older day by day!”

“Although things between Qingya and I are not bad, who can guarantee that there won’t be a falling out one day?

But having your own child is different, that’s the kind of kinship that’s thicker than water, which can’t be severed!”

“Now my teaching job is relaxing, and I don’t have any financial pressures like mortgage or car loans.

I don’t want to continue living a life that’s dull and monotonous, so I want to get pregnant and raise a child, little by little…”

Wu Jie was silent without a word.

Cigarette smoke curled up into the air, and within the haze, Wu Jie’s expression became even more profound.

His brow furrowed tightly, and his face seemed to gather more wrinkles.

Seeing Bai Fengling’s devoted and passionate demeanor, the radiance of her maternal glow, listening to her deeply moving words…

Wu Jie felt a slight stir in his heart.

He suddenly wanted to help Lin Yuan.

Not because of her stunning beauty, tall and proud figure, or the celestial aura about her, but simply to fulfill her maternal dream.

“What?

Do you think my idea is immature, ridiculous?” Lin Yuan suddenly turned her head to ask with a smile.

Under her arched eyebrows, a pair of bright and spirited eyes.

A face with a smile as beautiful as a flower, graceful and charming.

Wu Jie’s lips curled into a slight smile, and he shook his head slightly.

“Not at all!

What you said is very true!”

Lin Yuan exclaimed with joy, “So does this mean you agree?”

Wu Jie hesitated for a moment, and Lin Yuan quickly urged, “Don’t worry, I respect your privacy.

I can keep this a secret from everyone, whether it is your wife Tang Xiao or Fang Qingya, no one will know that you are the child’s father!”

The child’s father?

Those words, like an electric shock, suddenly stung Wu Jie.

No, I can’t!

If he agreed to Lin Yuan and she became pregnant, giving birth to a healthy, lively baby.

But he couldn’t just ignore the child afterward, pretending the child doesn’t exist, right?

After all, it would be his own flesh and blood!

“This…

might not be a good idea, right?

The child might not notice when they’re young, but eventually, they will grow up and understand.

What if they ask you who their father is?

Why do the other kids have fathers who drop them off at school, attend parent-teacher conferences, go on family trips, but they don’t have one?”

“What would you say then?

You can’t start by letting my child grow up in an incomplete single-parent family.

That could easily affect their mental development!”

Wu Jie suddenly realized.

If you’re going to have a child, you have to take responsibility for the child’s healthy growth.

Lin Yuan smiled sweetly.

“You’re overthinking it.

These days, the divorce rate is quite high!

Single-parent and reconstituted families are not at all uncommon!”

“Even if a child grows up without parents, many still grow up healthy!

Isn’t that was my case?”

“Ultimately, it’s about how you educate and guide them.

After all, there are many cases of children who come from intact families yet turn out to be ungrateful and disloyal!”

Wu Jie took a deep drag on his cigarette and closed his eyes in thought.

“If you really can’t let go, I could let the child acknowledge you as a godfather in the future!

A godfather is still a father, right?”

Lin Yuan spoke with sincere tone:

“Additionally, you don’t have to rush into agreeing with me on this matter.

Take your time to think about it!”

“After all, I will need some time to exercise properly and get my nutrition in order to prepare for pregnancy!”

“If possible, I hope you could quit smoking for now, to minimize any negative impact on the pregnancy!”

Wu Jie chuckled lightly.

“Rest assured, you won’t find another man in the whole world as healthy as I am!”

Lin Yuan laughed, “It would be best if you could quit, of course.

Smoking tends to lead to infertility!”

Wu Jie nodded slightly, pinched the cigarette butt, and tossed it into the ashtray, then continued to drive.

Rolled down the car window to disperse the smell of smoke inside.

While driving, his mind couldn’t help but wander.

“I think if we’re going to do this, we should do it before my wife comes back from her business trip!”

Wu Jie suddenly said.

Lin Yuan’s elegant brows tensed, “Are you sure you want to rush this?

But I’m worried I’m not ready to conceive yet!”

Wu Jie glanced at Lin Yuan.

“Lustrous black hair, bright eyes, and skin that is flushed and radiant…

You must work out a lot, right?

A healthy body like yours, far more likely to conceive than those women who do nothing but hunch over their phones all day looking sickly!”

Lin Yuan hesitated, then laughed, “Alright then!

I normally pay attention to my diet, making sure I get enough protein and nutrients like iron, calcium, and zinc.

I’ll add some folic acid supplements to my diet, surely that will ensure the health of the fetus!”

“Folic acid?” Wu Jie’s brow furrowed slightly.

Lin Yuan laughed, “You don’t know about this, do you?

Folic acid is actually a vitamin.

Taking folic acid regularly before and during pregnancy can effectively reduce the incidence of neural tube defects and cleft lip in babies.”

“You can even get it for free at the community hospital these days!

If you’re planning to have Tang Xiao become pregnant in the future, don’t forget to have her take it, as it’s good for the baby!”

Wu Jie gave an awkward smile.

After passing through a traffic light, continuing straight ahead would lead to Tianyuan Xinya Community.

The thought of Tang Xin still living with Lin Yuan made Wu Jie somewhat reluctant to go; how awkward would it be if they ran into each other?

“Are we going straight home?”

Wu Jie asked with a double meaning.

Lin Yuan casually laughed and asked, “What’s up?

Do you have other plans for tonight?”

“No!

No!” Wu Jie shook his head.

Lin Yuan laughed, “Then let’s go to my place!

I’ll cook a big meal to thank you for agreeing to help me!”
