"It's hard to believe, isn't it?" Shen Manting sneered. "We share the same surname. Haven't you ever doubted it?"
Of course Aunt Lin doubted it!
But what could the same surname prove?
There were many couples with the same surname!
What made her curious was that Shen Manting had always been afraid of Shen Luo 'an.
She had thought that there was a knot between them.
But she didn't expect that to be the reason!
Brother and sister?
Biological brother and sister?
"Manting, are you kidding?" Aunt Lin couldn't believe it. "You don't look alike at all, and … if you are really brother and sister, why did you give birth to the child? Aren't you afraid …"
Aren't you afraid of deformity?
Now, the child won't be deformed.
But the child born to biological brother and sister is likely to be mentally retarded, have cerebral palsy, or even have invisible diseases.
Such a price was too heavy. For a child, it would be better not to have been born into this world in the first place if such a fate were to befall him!
Shen Manting heard Aunt Lin's words and smiled.
But at the same time, tears fell.
"We are not related by blood."
Aunt Lin immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's good, that's good."
"You haven't answered me yet," Shen Manting repeated the question. "Who do you think the child will be better off with?"
Aunt Lin frowned and said, "You don't want to be with him?"
"Who would want to be husband and wife with their own brother?"
"Ah, how can a woman bear to give up the baby?" Aunt Lin was also a mother, so she naturally understood this feeling.
It was impossible to give up the blood relationship with the child.
But now as an outsider, she heard Shen Manting's words and sighed softly. "But in all fairness, if you are destined not to be together, then it will be better for the baby to be with Sir."
That was the expected answer.
Shen Manting felt like a knife was being twisted in her heart, but she still didn't give up. She asked, "Why?"
"First of all, Sir's financial ability is better than yours. As a woman, your ability to earn money is inferior to that of a man. Moreover, your health is not very good."
"I'm not in poor health."
"You are weak and anemic. These are all problems. These small problems have to be taken care of, or they will accidentally become serious problems." Aunt Lin looked at her. "Moreover, the baby needs a good material life. Sir can provide these, but can you?"
She couldn't.
If she took care of a baby, she would not have the ability or energy to earn money.
Once she lost her source of income, she might not even be able to support herself.
"Manting, Sir is actually quite nice."
"I got it," Shen Manting interrupted. "I got it."
His voice was very low, with an indiscernible stillness.
"What do you know?" Auntie Lin looked at her. "You're still not in good health. You need to stay on the drip for a few days to nourish your body. Don't quarrel with Sir again."
"Yes." Shen Manting lowered her head and looked sideways at the infant lying next to her. "I know. You can go back now."
Aunt Lin sensed that something was amiss. "Are you alright?"
"It's okay. You can go. Leave the soup here. I'll drink it myself when I'm hungry."
Aunt Lin was relieved to hear that.
If he knew how to drink soup, it meant that he wouldn't do anything stupid.
Auntie Lin looked at the time and said, "Alright then, I'm leaving. When Sir comes back later, you can ask him to talk to you."
"Yes."
