341: Do Not Want A Child

Do Not Want A Child

"Yes," Su Qingsang took a glimpse of her phone that was lying nearby. I have not received Huo Jinyao's call today. "Perhaps he is busy."2

During this period of time, Xiang Caiping had also more or less grasped some information regarding Huo Jinyao's background. He was really a busy man and regularly needed to work overtime, entertain his clients and deal with many other aspects of his work. 

"Come to think of it, both of you have been married for about six months already. Do you plan to have children?"

Xiang Caiping did not think that having children would help to strengthen marriage bonds, but Su Qingsang is over twenty-five years of age now. This was the optimal age for having children if she planned to have any.

"We haven't discussed this yet." Su Qingsang shook her head and smiled a little awkwardly. "It's too soon. There's no hurry."

Ever since Huo Jinyao found out that she had been taking contraception pills, he has been taking protective measures.

Both of them felt that it was not the right time to have children yet. Since they shared the same view, they had decided that it could wait.

Xiang Caiping carefully observed her face and a sudden possibility occurred to her. "Qingsang, you're not against having children because of my relationship with your father, are you?"

"Of course it's not because of that," Su Qingsang dispelled that idea without hesitation. "I just feel that I'm still young and don't feel like having a child so soon."

Xiang Caiping glanced at her and remained silent. However, she knew in her heart that Su Qingsang was not speaking the truth. 

She must feel like this because of me. She feels that she is an illegitimate daughter and her biological father treats her coldly. I, as her mother, had not been there for her for such a long time, too.

Xiang Caiping's heart ached. She had so much to say but did not know where to begin. She lowered her head and hid her watery eyes amidst the warm vapor from the hot spring. 

Su Qingsang did not know if Xiang Caiping believed her words either. When she had the thought to explain herself further, Xiang Caiping had already lifted her head to look at her. She had a faint smile on her face.

"This hot spring makes me feel rather good. Didn't the service personnel mention that there was floral-scented tea? I feel like having a cup. Do you want one?"

"I'll go get it." Su Qingsang got up as she was speaking to fetch a cup of tea for Xiang Caiping. It seemed that Xiang Caiping had trusted what she said and she did not want to bring the topic up anymore.

Even though it was comfortable to be immersed in the hot spring, it was not advisable to stay in there for too long.

Xiang Caiping had the habit of going to sleep early, so the duo got up from the hot spring after a while and returned to their room to rest.

Not long after they had gone back to their room, Su Peizhen and her friends left their rooms and headed for the hot spring pool. They just missed Su Qingsang and Xiang Caiping.

Xiang Caiping slept early, but Su Qingsang could not fall asleep.

Huo Jinyao had the habit of calling her every day when she was abroad, but most of the day had passed and Huo Jinyao had not contacted her.

Flipping over, Su Qingsang picked up her phone. It was almost 11 PM. If Huo Jinyao did not call her soon, she would go to sleep.

As soon as she thought that, her phone screen lit up.

Seeing Huo Jinyao's name on her screen, she quickly silenced her ringtone, turned to see that Xiang Caiping was still sleeping and swiftly got up to go to the bathroom to answer the call.

"You answered so fast. Are you still awake?"

"I was about to go to sleep." Su Qingsang's voice turned soft and gentle without her realizing it. "What about you? Why did you only call at this time?"

"I'm working overtime." Even though Huo Jinyao said that he would head to Japan, he was met with too many work responsibilities once he returned to Rong City.

He was still in his office at the moment. "I initially planned to meet you in Japan, but it seems that it'll take some time for me to go."

"Don't worry about it. I'm enjoying myself with my mother. If you need to work, you don't have to come. We'll head back ourselves in a few days' time."

Su Qingsang could understand that work was more important, but she felt some disappointment in her heart. 

In truth, she really was missing him much.
