Rebirth: My Dear Little Wife Is So Scheming
Chapter 914: Speak Out

Chapter 914: Chapter 914: Speak Out

"I might not be able to have children. I might never be able to have children in this lifetime!" Bai Xiao cried, shouting hoarsely into his ear, her sobs uncontrollable.

No moment had ever caused her more pain than this one. She knew—she knew she could never have a child.

In her past life, Shang Kaiwen had tried so many times but could never give her a descendant. He wanted her genes, yet was completely powerless.

Taking ovulation-stimulating injections and undergoing egg retrieval were such torturous processes. She could bear countless pains, but fate had bestowed upon her a special ability while taking away her right to be a mother.

Opening her eyes, she saw his restrained yet handsome face, his cheeks taut from the clenching of his jaw, a trace of frustration and helplessness flickering in his eyes.

He finally understood why Bai Xiao was so angry, what that faint unease lingering between them truly was.

An Zhiyuan quietly gazed back at her, raising his hand to caress her evasive eyes, unsure if he believed her words or was contemplating their truth.

After Bai Xiao spoke, her face flushed red, her eyes moist. She looked at him, but anxiety churned within her. She knew that no man would willingly accept a lifetime without his own child. She understood this was the fuse to the bomb, yet leaving it unspoken forever would weigh on her with guilt for the rest of her life.

The bedroom was so quiet that the sound of their breaths was clearly audible.

She was like a prisoner awaiting judgment.

The torment in her heart—nobody could understand.

He gradually leaned away, and she felt the distance growing between them. A wave of complexity surged in her heart. To say she wasn’t disappointed would be a lie. She thought An Zhiyuan was different, yet the issue of children still stood between them. Her heart ached, but she didn’t do anything to stop him.

Yes.

They couldn’t escape this curse.

Bai Xiao closed her eyes, trying to suppress her disappointment and stop herself from crying. The experiences of her past life had already hardened her against further heartbreak.

Suddenly, she felt the warmth of two people tightly embracing.

"Ah..." Bai Xiao gasped, startled, letting out a shrill cry. She opened her eyes, shock clouding her gaze as she looked at the man clinging to her.

He...

An Zhiyuan was looking down at her, his strong arms making her feel the force and depth of his resolve.

He held this expression for a few seconds before leaning in to kiss her cheek.

Bai Xiao looped her arms around his neck, her breath soft and warm, brushing against his ear. Her bright, black-and-white eyes glimmered like stars.

"Xiaoxiao, it doesn’t matter if we don’t have children. We can live our lives as just the two of us. If you like kids, we can adopt one. What was that look you just gave me, as if you were so disappointed in me! Hmm..."

She melted onto him like spring water, clinging tightly to his neck, responding to his kiss.

"You... really don’t... mind... hmm..."

The man above her stubbornly held her close—one hand firmly cupping her face, his lips claiming hers in an intense, twisting motion; the other hand roamed along the curves of her body, his dry, warm palm trailing behind like a flame igniting across her chest.

"The only thing I care about is you, Xiaoxiao."

"... Zhiyuan..." Her voice was tender and seductive, a faint note of coyness and allure stirring him, sending a shiver down his spine. Their eyes locked.
