Su Qiao pouted slightly and said with a hint of petulance, "You know I'm a face-con. I don't want to turn into an ugly mess myself. I couldn't stand looking like that, so can we not have children?"
"There are plenty of childfree families these days. Some of them actually live better and happier lives than families with children."
"What?"
Wang Zhiyao simply couldn't believe what he had heard.
"No children? Are you crazy? I married you so you could have children. I..."
From childhood onward, Wang Zhiyao's mother had constantly drilled one thing into him. The words she said most often were that he should marry a wife someday, have her take care of him, bear children for his family, and continue the family line.
In his understanding, women existed to have children.
If a woman didn't have children, could she still be called a woman?
Then why would he get married? Wouldn't that just mean having one more person to control him?
Su Qiao pointed at him with the same look of disbelief, her face full of hurt. "So... so you wanted to marry me just to use me as a baby-making machine? You... you..."
"You've gone too far. I'm never speaking to you again. From this moment on, we're breaking up. We have absolutely nothing to do with each other anymore."
"No, I..."
Su Qiao ran off as soon as she finished speaking. She quickly hailed a taxi and left, leaving Wang Zhiyao no time to explain or stop her.
"You... I..."
"Fuck! What the hell happened?"
Wang Zhiyao had no idea how things had ended up like this.
He had clearly come today to ask her to get back together with him, to make her happy, and to take the opportunity to test her family's limits.
