Xie Zhuo didn't speak immediately. He thought for a while before slowly saying, "I do like children very much."

Xu Yan paused and gently pinched his fingers.

"I have long imagined that if we had a child," Xie Zhuo let go of Xu Yan's hand, and slid his fingertips down to her belly, "Will the child look like me or you?"

Xu Yan opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but before he could say anything, he heard Xie Zhuo continue: "But, at that time, I was thinking the same thing. This matter is up to you. You can give birth whenever you want."

"If you... don't want to have a baby," Xie Zhuo paused, "I won't force you to have one."

Xu Yan was suddenly stunned, and his voice became a little higher.

"what?"

Xie Zhuo's hand was still on Xu Yan's lower abdomen. When he heard her slightly surprised sound, he patted it gently with his palm in a soothing manner.

"I like children, and I want to have children of our own, but..."

Xie Zhuo frowned, not knowing what he was thinking. "Giving birth to a child is not an easy thing."

"Sun Jiarou almost died after being sent to the hospital that day. Although it was related to her fall, when I thought about it..."

Xie Zhuo didn't say anything else, but Xu Yan still guessed what he would say next.

Sun Jiarou was indeed in danger that time. If she hadn't been sent to the hospital in time, she might have died.

Xu Yan also heard that Han Xiaoyu was almost beaten to death by Sun Guoan and Sun Jiarou's brothers.

However, she did not expect that this incident would have such a huge impact on Xie Zhuo.

Xu Yan leaned over and kissed Xie Zhuo between his frowning brows, "It's okay, there aren't that many accidents. There are so many births in the team, and Sun Jiarou's case is a low-probability event in mathematics."

Xie Zhuo exhaled lightly and said, "Yeah," "I know, but we're not in a hurry."

"No hurry?" Xu Yan couldn't help but repeat softly.

If this was said in later generations, Xu Yan would definitely think it was very normal. After all, many people in later generations married and had children late, or even did not marry or have children.

But in rural areas today, it is really surprising to hear a man who was born and raised in the countryside say such words.

She looked at Xie Zhuo.

"Yeah," Xie Zhuo nodded, "I want to wait until we are all ready. I don't want what happened to Dabao and Xiaobao to happen to our child as well."

"I think when she or he was born, we were all ready and looking forward to his arrival."

Xu Yan didn't say anything for a long time.

She stared at Xie Zhuo for a long time, then hooked her hand around his neck, and Xie Zhuo lowered his head and kissed her on the lips.

A very brief kiss.

"I think so too," Xu Yan said, "No matter how you look at it, it's not suitable for the two of us to have another child right now. I admit that I'm a little scared and not ready, but..."

She leaned over and kissed Xie Zhuo on the face, "I also want to have a child that belongs to both of us."

Because of her words, Xie Zhuo's hand on Xu Yan's lower abdomen trembled slightly.

Compared to Xu Yan's understanding of Xie Zhuo, Xie Zhuo knows much more about Xu Yan than she herself knows.

Because he understands it better, his expectations will be lower.

From the day they got married, he had already prepared himself for Xu Yan to leave him one day. At that time, he thought that being able to get along for two years was pretty good.

But as time went on, his feelings for Xu Yan grew deeper and his possessiveness grew stronger.

If they could be together forever, he didn't want to be separated from her for a moment.

He also knew that Xu Yan had his own plans.

So he secretly adjusted his plans for the future, thinking that if the college entrance examination was really resumed, he would also take the college entrance examination.

Anyway, wherever she goes, he goes too.

Of course, what he said just now was not a deliberate retreat to get Xu Yan to make a promise to him, that was what he thought.

As long as Xu Yan can stay with him forever, he doesn't care even if they don't have children in this life.

"Really?" Xie Zhuo's voice was a little low.

Hearing his question, Xu Yan smiled and said, "What are you thinking about? I also want to be a mother. Although we already have Dabao and Xiaobao, I still want to have a child with you."

"Like you said, like you or like me, or maybe like both of us."

"But we may have to wait a few years," Xu Yan said with a serious expression, "We are now..."

Before Xu Yan could finish his next words, Xie Zhuo came up and blocked his lips.

She didn't know what happened to Xie Zhuo suddenly, so she opened her lips in response.

Xie Zhuo's eyes became even deeper. When he heard that she included him in her future plans, he couldn't help feeling happy.

The warm palm slid down a little.

Xu Yan snorted softly.

He wanted to reach out to block it, but the next moment, when Xie Zhuo touched a certain point, his whole body went limp.

Many people stay up all night on New Year’s Eve, but there is no such custom on New Year’s Day. No matter how noisy the party is, people will go to bed early because of the expensive electricity bill.

Outside the house, you can hear the whistling wind blowing the catkin-like snowflakes against the windows.

At first Xu Yan could still bite her lips and keep silent, but after hearing Xie Zhuo occasionally say those unbearable words in her ear, she could not help it.

Ashamed and annoyed.

He scratched his arm several times.

Xie Zhuo was still able to smile, his eyelashes half drooped, the corners of his lips curled up, "Kitten."

Then, the cat pawed harder.

The room was charming, and Xie Zhuo's movements did not slow down until the wind and snow died down a little.

Xu Yan's eyelashes were wet and he looked very cute.

Xie Zhuo felt so soft inside that he lowered his head and kissed the corners of her red eyes. Only when she rubbed her legs against his waist in impatience did he move again.

Xu Yan was still not satisfied.

The wind and snow started to blow again, hitting the door curtains. You could hear the curtains rubbing against the wooden door.

Xie Zhuo suddenly wanted to tease Xu Yan, and used his fingertips to push away the hair that was sticking to the corner of her mouth.

Said: "Or, if you beg me, I will..."

It snowed all night the night before, and the next day the whole world was covered in white.

Dabao and Xiaobao were laughing excitedly in the yard. Xu Yan tilted his head to look to the side and saw that Xie Zhuo had gotten up at some point and was no longer on the kang.

Xu Yan felt uncomfortable all over and fell asleep while lying there. When he woke up, it was already time for lunch.

Xie Zhuo also knew that he had gone too far at night, so he didn't let the two kids disturb Xu Yan. He also wrapped the puppy, who had been barking since early in the morning, in a thick towel and brought it to Dabao and Xiaobao's room.

Originally, Dabao and Xiaobao wanted to have snowball fights and build snowmen, but when they saw "Happy", they squatted obediently aside and watched Xie Zhuo feed milk to the puppy.
