Xia Zhiyun nodded.
She seemed to be considering those words.
"Actually, I used to think that too, but now I've realized there's another perk. Once you have children and grandchildren, you can cause all the trouble you want and let them clean up after you."
Gu Luosheng's eyes widened, and she swallowed the "holy shit" that nearly slipped out.
True... she could cause more trouble and leave the kids to deal with it.
That really was... a good thing!
Gu Luosheng saw the light.
Xia Zhiyun continued, "If you can, Shengsheng, darling, you could have a baby to play with too."
To play with...
Well, that was an interesting choice of words.
But if she broke the baby while playing, not only would she ruin her child's entire life, but more importantly, the rest of her own life would be over too.
While mother and daughter joked outside, Gu Yan grew increasingly uneasy as he underwent his checkup inside.
Why... did this not seem like a normal checkup?
It felt more like... a premarital examination. Surely they were checking a little too thoroughly.
Gu Yan looked rather grim when he came out.
Xia Zhiyun's heart rose into her throat.
"What happened? Is something wrong?" Xia Zhiyun hurriedly rose from her chair and walked over, looking nervous.
Gu Yan held several test reports in his hand.
When Xia Zhiyun saw the routine test results, she merely glanced at them and skipped straight past them. Her gaze finally settled on the most crucial report: his sexual function was completely normal, and even above average.
Xia Zhiyun slowly breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank goodness."
Gu Yan: ???
"Mom..." Gu Yan finally understood everything.
His mother truly couldn't care less whether he lived or died. All she cared about were those other things.
