Chapter 214 – Let’s Make A Baby?
” No, wait stop hitting her” Yu Dong who finally got over her shock, she didn’t know how the two kids reached this conclusion but surely what they said couldn’t be true so beating Lang Ru was not proper – after all, she looked down at the tiny Lang Ru who couldn’t even reach the waist, there was no way she could do something like that, so she immediately tried to stop Lang, ” I think that there might be some misunderstanding here”
Lang stopped then looked at her daughter who was sniffing and wiping her tears, the sight somewhat softened her heart and she picked Lang Ru up in her arms, just now she was too stimulated and didn’t pay attention to what she was doing, her body reacted faster than her brain and only now did she realized that even if Lang Ru did something, there was no way she had the ability to get Yu Mai pregnant. She looked at Yu Mai and then turned to look at Lang Ru before she softly asked ” Ruru, tell mother properly-what exactly happened?”
Zhu Qian was distressed when he saw his daughter crying but he couldn’t interfere with his wife teaching their daughter so he could stand beside Lang and wipe Lang Ru’s tears as the latter hiccuped.
Lang Ru felt like today was the worst day of her life, her mother had never beaten her but today with just a single mention of Yu Mai’s pregnancy she was beaten so badly once they found out, Lang Ru wanted to stay silent but the cat was already out of the bag and she couldn’t stuff it back even if she wanted to, so she retold everything to her parents and Yu Dong’s family with an aggrieved expression.
After she was finished telling the entire story everyone turned silent, Yu Dong and Lang looked at each other with an awkward expression then took their kids back to their rooms.
Yu Dong found it a bit uncomfortable to discuss it with her brother so she passed Yu Mai to Shen Li who with a rather embarrassed expression told Yu Mai about all the differences between a mer and a woman, he also told Yu Mai which spots he should try to protect and not let anyone touch him. The same thing happened in the Lang family by the time everything was cleared up both the kids were too embarrassed to leave their rooms, neither of them played with each other for a few days wishing to forget this ordeal at once.
But only Yu Mai whose tenacity was something even Yu Dong was sacred of forgot the embarrassment that he received a few days ago and immediately went to look for Lang Ru. At this moment Lang Ru was putting all the money that she took out of her secret stash, thus when Yu Mai came rushing into her room, the first thing he saw was Lang Ru holding a few copper taels.
He tilted his head and looked at the small pile of copper coins and brazenly asked ” was this for the baby?”
Lang Ru flushed red as she hurriedly put away all her savings – what baby? The baby was gone and she wasn’t going to be a mother either, all the anxiety had left her body but even though Lang Ru should have been happy with this outcome, she wasn’t, even though she didn’t admit it to anyone. She was kind of looking forward to having a baby with Yu Mai.
Yu Mai saw Lang Ru pouting her lips, he didn’t like it. He even felt guilty because he got Lang Ru in trouble, if not for his stupidity Lang Ru would never have been beaten by her mother, it was kind of his fault ” I am sorry,” twiddling his thumbs he somewhat apologetically smiled at Lang Ru ” because of me you were beaten by your mother”
“It’s not your fault” Lang Ru shook her head as she looked at Yu Mai ” I am older than you I should have thought things through before coming to such a ridiculous conclusion but instead I thought of something so insensitive if someone heard us back then – then your reputation would have been sullied because of me, don’t blame yourself”
” But you are unhappy” stated Yu Mai, pointing at Lang Ru’s frown “are you unhappy that you will not have a baby?”
Lang Ru shook her head again but before she could say anything Yu Mai patted his chest ” Don’t worry, since I was the one who caused this trouble naturally I will be the one who will resolve it, my brother in law said that I need to grow up before giving birth then once I grow up, I will give you a baby”
Lang Ru’s eyes snapped up. She wanted to ask whether Yu Mai knew what he was saying but then she swallowed her words back and said ” You will?”
” I will”
” Alright then write it down” she took out a paper and a brush and handed it to Yu Mai ” Because you forgot everything easily I think its better to write it down”
Lang Ru didn’t know why she thought of this idea but she had a feeling that it was better for her to have Yu Mai write down his promise. Yu Mai who didn’t know that he was being schemed against happily wrote the words that he said in his tadpole writing.
Only years later would he remember this day and curse himself for being so stupid!

” Yu Dong stop, stop” Ye Liu who was caged between Yu Dong and the wall, shivered and trembled as he shook his head with his cheeks dyed red ” I … I was muddleheaded for a second just for a second” he tried to push her off him but Yu Dong grasped his wrist and pulled them over his head.
She smirked at him nibbling on his bottom lip ” what are you getting shy for? Didn’t you smack Mai’s butt because you wanted a baby? Then let’s make one”
