"Ah?" If there was a mirror, Song Qingshu knew that his current expression would be one of stupefaction. He really hadn't expected this.
"I know that this request is very difficult for Young Master, but I have no other choice." Tears glistened in Lu Guanying's eyes. "When I was healthy, I couldn't get her pregnant. Now … now it's even more impossible."
Song QingShu was silent as he listened to him continue. "We're not young anymore. A few years ago, we could still find some random excuse to get by. But now, if we don't have any children, we'll be criticized by the people in our families. Also, for a family like ours, not having a child is a very terrible thing. At that time, no matter if it is resources or help, we will not be provided to the bloodline that is destined to be extinct. We may not be able to establish ourselves in the family. "
"Can't you just find someone to adopt a son?" Song Qingshu frowned.
"But that child has nothing to do with us. If Young Master is willing … at least it will be Yao Jia's child." Seeing Song Qingshu frown, Lu Guanying quickly said, "To be honest, if it weren't for this, I wouldn't be so magnanimous to let my wife …"
"Yao Jia has already sacrificed enough for me. I cannot be so selfish. After thinking about it, the only way I can repay her kindness is to make her pregnant with my own flesh and blood." Lu Guanying spoke with an expression of deep emotion. His body seemed to emit a holy light.
However, there were still some things that he did not say. The reason why he made such a decision was firstly to cover up the fact that his body had such a defect. For a man, it was too embarrassing. Originally, there were many people in the family who were secretly talking about him and his wife. If their injuries were to be exposed, what would happen? If he had a child, he would be able to shut up people's mouths and completely pull his wife to his side. Although Cheng Yaojia didn't show any disgust, people's hearts could change. In a few years, what if she couldn't stand this kind of life anymore? Having a child would solve all problems.
Secondly, he wanted to ride on Song QingShu's coattails. Song QingShu had saved him and his wife's lives, and he had even promised to pass him the Bixie Swordplay that countless people dreamed of. Everything seemed so unreal, and Lu Guanying was always uncertain, afraid that he would wake up from his dream. If he could facilitate the marriage between the other party and his wife, he would be much more confident.
Third, he wanted to save Han Yuezhou, but Song Qingshu had already treated him very well. He had nothing to repay, so how could he ask for help? If the other party had such a relationship with his wife, then they would be considered a family, and it would be much more convenient to speak.
As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning. If he had not given Cheng Yaojia to Tang Kuo Bian, Lu Guanying would not have made such a decision. He was like a red-eyed gambler. He had already lost so much, he had to seize every opportunity to make a comeback.
Fourth, it was for the future status of the family. After all, he had worked so hard and even sacrificed his wife's innocence to save Han Yuezhou. Han Yuezhou would certainly repay this kindness. But if he had no children, it would benefit others in the family. This was something he absolutely could not accept.
Of course, there was also his gratitude to Song Qingshu and his guilt toward his wife. All these factors intertwined and Lu Guanying made such a "shocking" decision.
Seeing Lu Guanying's earnest eyes, Song Qingshu suddenly felt a headache coming on. "How can I agree to this kind of thing?" Although he had already stolen Cheng Yaojia's body and mind, Lu Guanying's request felt strange.
Lu Guanying smiled bitterly and said, "I know this kind of thing is very difficult for you, but I hope you can understand our current difficulties. We really have no other choice but to come up with this plan."
"We?" Song Qingshu had a strange expression on his face. "Did your wife agree?"
Lu Guanying suddenly stammered, "At first … at first she didn't agree, but after I analyzed the pros and cons with her, she agreed."
"She agreed?" Song Qingshu did not have too many doubts. After all, the two of them had already been intimate, so it was not surprising that Cheng Yaojia agreed.
Seeing that Song Qingshu still had a hesitant expression, Lu Guanying had to continue to increase the price. "You can rest assured that no outsider will know about this matter. From now on, Cheng Yaojia and I will only pretend to be husband and wife in front of outsiders. In private, you can look for her at any time. Even if Cheng Yaojia becomes pregnant and has children in the future, if you don't mind, you can still look for her. I won't say anything. "
"That works?" Song Qingshu's eyes widened. To be honest, this condition was too generous. He did not need to perform any obligations and enjoyed all the rights. His only obligation was to make Cheng Yaojia pregnant, if that counted as an obligation.
Lu Guanying sighed and said, "We can't repay you for your kindness in this lifetime, so I also want to use this matter to repay you …"
Song Qingshu's expression turned serious and hurriedly interrupted him, saying, "I am helping you because of Jianghu morality. I do not have any ulterior motives, and I do not need this … this kind of repayment."
Lu Guanying hurriedly explained, "I know that you are a person of noble character and unquestionable integrity. Right now, we are in urgent need of your help, not to repay you …"
Song Qingshu revealed an awkward expression. After a long time, he said bitterly, "Alright, I only hope that Young Master Lu will not resent me in the future."
He did not agree because he was greedy for Cheng Yaojia. After all, he already had Cheng Yaojia. The reason why he agreed was because of the Hangzhou Bay landing plan. If he wanted to control the Lu family, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Seeing that the other party had finally agreed, Lu Guanying was overjoyed. "Young master, you worry too much. I am grateful that you agreed to help me, so how can I resent you? Young master, this way please …"
"Ah?" Song Qingshu was startled. "Please what?"
Lu Guanying's expression was also a bit awkward. "My wife is waiting for you in the room."
"Starting tonight?" Song Qingshu sucked in a breath of cold air. This husband was really free and easy.
"I'm afraid we won't be staying in Yangzhou for long, so we naturally have to hurry." Lu Guanying smiled embarrassedly and then said, "Young master, Cheng Yaojia's temperament is a bit shy, and this kind of thing is too embarrassing. When we get to her room later, she may be too embarrassed to answer you. You don't have to worry so much, just … just …"
In the end, he could not say the rest of the words. Thinking about how he would once again push his wife into the arms of another man, Lu Guanying's heart suddenly ached. However, his eyes quickly became firm again. For the current him, there was no meaning to love. Only martial arts and power were the meaning of the rest of his life!
