Chapter 148 The matter of whether one has a boy or a girl is the will of Heaven.
At this moment, Lin Fangfang lay quietly on the snow-white hospital bed, her eyes empty and vacant, tears streaming down her cheeks like a burst dam, leaving two clear tear tracks. Her heart felt as if it had been torn into countless pieces, endless sorrow filling every inch of her mind.
Once upon a time, Zhaoyuan was a man who didn't care much about his family and had a meager income, but now he has completely changed. He is not only extremely caring towards his family, but also successful in his career and has a large fortune. Looking at the ever-growing family business, Lin Fangfang's desire to give birth to a son for Zhaoyuan has become stronger and stronger.
However, fate always seems to like playing tricks on people, and her uncooperative belly gave birth to one lovely daughter after another. Although her daughters were equally innocent and lovable, under the influence of traditional ideas, Lin Fangfang always felt that without a son, the family business could not be inherited, which plunged her into deep self-blame and pain.
Just then, a series of hurried footsteps broke the silence of the ward. Uncle Zhong and Aunt Zhong rushed into the room, carrying young Zhao Nana in their arms.
"Fangfang! How could you be so foolish? How could you make such an important decision without even consulting Zhaoyuan? Quick, pack your things, let's go home!"
As soon as Aunt Zhong stepped into the ward, she began to berate Lin Fangfang in rapid succession.
Hearing the voice, Lin Fangfang slowly raised her head, looked at the familiar face before her, and tears welled up in her eyes again uncontrollably.
"Godfather, Godmother, why...why are you here?" she said, her voice choked with emotion.
Upon seeing her mother, Zhao Nana excitedly stretched out her little hand and called out in her sweet, childish voice:
"Mother."
Lin Fangfang quickly reached out and hugged her precious daughter tightly.
"Fangfang, Zhaoyuan already knows about this, and he's rushing back in a panic. He's firmly against you having an abortion. Let's go home first, and we'll discuss it further when he gets back."
As Aunt Zhong spoke, she took Lin Fangfang's hand and prepared to lead her away from the hospital.
"Ah."
Lin Fangfang responded softly. After hearing that Zhao Yuan disagreed with the abortion, she felt a mix of emotions, but she knew that now was not the time to argue. She could only go home and discuss it further.
So, the four of them slowly walked out of the hospital's somewhat heavy door.
In the afternoon, the sun was still scorching hot, as if it were about to bake the earth.
Zhao Yuan rushed home, his forehead covered in fine beads of sweat.
As he walked into his house, he shouted loudly:
"Fangfang, I'm back."
His voice revealed a hint of urgency and concern.
At that moment, Aunt Zhong was playing with Zhao Nana in the yard.
Hearing Zhao Yuan's hurried footsteps and shouts, she looked up and saw his flustered appearance. She smiled, pointed towards the door, and said:
"He's in his room."
Zhao Yuan strode towards the room, and when he pushed open the door, the scene before him made his heart tighten.
Lin Fangfang sat quietly by the window, her eyes vacant and lifeless, staring blankly out the window, her face still bearing traces of tears.
"I'm sorry, Brother Yuan, it's another girl... Why is my stomach so uncooperative!"
As soon as Lin Fangfang saw Zhao Yuan enter, tears welled up in her eyes again. She threw herself into Zhao Yuan's arms, buried her face in his shoulder, and burst into tears.
The cries were filled with self-blame, grievance, and helplessness.
Zhao Yuan hugged Lin Fangfang tightly, gently patted her back, and tenderly comforted her:
"Silly boy, don't cry. A daughter is wonderful. We'll have four beautiful girls in total. I love them so much! Don't think about it too much. Whether it's a boy or a girl, they're both our precious darlings."
Upon hearing Zhao Yuan's words, Lin Fangfang's crying gradually subsided, slowly transforming from wailing to soft sobs.
But she still leaned on Zhaoyuan's shoulder, her body trembling slightly, as if she wanted to vent all her sorrow.
Zhao Yuan gently helped Lin Fangfang up and helped her sit steadily in the chair.
He gazed deeply into Lin Fangfang's eyes and spoke with utmost solemnity:
"Fangfang, look closely into my eyes. Every word I'm about to say comes from the bottom of my heart and is extremely sincere."
Whether we have a son or a daughter in the future, as long as the child is the result of our love and care, I will cherish and love them with all my heart.
And to be honest, I actually prefer my daughter to my son!
Don't worry about this kind of thing next time, and don't care what others say.
If you feel that living here is too stressful, then we can move to Beijing in the future.
I've already started planning and arranging everything in the capital, so please don't have any psychological burden or pressure.
You just need to take care of things at home, so I can go out and earn money without any worries. Don't worry, even without a son, I will never abandon you and our daughters.
Hearing this, Lin Fangfang's eyes still revealed a trace of doubt, as if she still couldn't believe it, so she asked again:
"Really? You really don't care at all?"
However, when she met Zhao Yuan's sincere and firm gaze, her initial doubts began to waver.
Zhao Yuan nodded solemnly again and replied sincerely:
"Of course it's true. I was misled by others before. Look at how much I care. Whether it's a boy or a girl is God's will, it's all predetermined. In any case, let's just let nature take its course."
After receiving such a positive reply from Zhao Yuan, Lin Fangfang finally smiled with relief, her tears still clinging to the corners of her eyes, but her sadness had vanished.
She nodded slightly and replied:
"Okay, I understand. I won't overthink things anymore."
Seeing this, Zhao Yuan's face also showed a relieved smile, and then he took Lin Fangfang's hand gently and said:
"Come on, darling, I'll take you on a tour of our company and show you the business we've built together. It'll help you relax."
"Ah."
The two then took hands and walked out.
"Godfather, Godmother, Fangfang and I are going out for a bit. We'll be back for lunch."
Zhao Yuan and Lin Fangfang talked as they walked out.
"it is good."
Uncle Zhong answered.
The car engine started, and Zhao Yuan drove Lin Fangfang out of the yard.
The car slowly came to a stop in front of Zhao's Food Factory.
With a smile on his face, Zhao Yuan gently took Lin Fangfang's hand and walked into Zhao's Food Factory.
They strolled through the various factory areas, and everywhere they looked, there was an orderly yet bustling scene.
