Chapter 391 Mother And Daughter Talk
Huo Tian was originally very tired, but she realized that Ding Rong was still standing by the bed after hearing her words, hesitating, and did not leave. She thought for a few seconds with her sleepy brain and felt that she should explain her thoughts more clearly.
Hence, she rubbed her eyes and propped herself up with her arm on the bed. She leaned against the headboard and said to Ding Rong, "Mom, do you want to talk to me for a while more?"
Huo Tian patted the spot on the side of the bed and Ding Rong sat down again.
She looked at Huo Tian apologetically. "You're already very tired. Why don't you sleep first? We can continue this topic tomorrow."
Huo Tian didn't deny that she was tired, but she didn't agree with Ding Rong's suggestion either. "But if I don't explain my thoughts to Mom, you won't be able to sleep well, right? I don't want you to feel burdened."
"Alright then, let's chat a little longer." Ding Rong stroked Huo Tian's hair and looked at her caring daughter gently. She asked again, "Tiantian, do you really want a younger brother or sister?"
Huo Tian tilted her head and replied seriously, "Actually, I don't have any expectations or feelings of rejection to the idea of having younger siblings. The reason I suggested for the two of you to have another child isn't because I want a sibling, but because I feel that you and Dad need the child."
Ding Rong could not figure out what Huo Tian meant and looked at her in confusion. "Why would Tiantian think that?"
"It's because I can feel that you guys feel very regretful and guilty for not having been by my side as I grew up. That's why you dote on me and indulge me. Sometimes, I enjoy this treatment, but sometimes, I also feel that this kind of unconditional sacrifice from you guys is a burden." Huo Tian thought about it as she deliberated over her words and revealed her inner thoughts.
Ding Rong's expression was in a daze. Huo Tian was talking about a feeling she had never noticed before.
She looked at Huo Tian uneasily. "Tiantian, did your father and I make you feel very pressured?"
"Mom, I'm not reproaching you and Dad." Huo Tian shook her head and said to Ding Rong reassuringly, "Just like how you guys want to be good to me and make me happy, I also want you guys to live happily. Just like what Mom said just now, Dad is a little at a loss now. When facing me, he will always feel guilty and uneasy. Therefore, I think if you guys can raise another child and personally experience the process of being relied on and trusted by a child as they grow up. It'll have positive effects on both your emotions as well as on our family's atmosphere."
After hearing Huo Tian's detailed explanation, Ding Rong finally understood why Huo Tian had suddenly suggested for them to have another child. Huo Tian was always carefree, lively, and happy, so she seemed as if she didn't think about things. Therefore, Ding Rong initially thought that Huo Tian just had a sudden thought that children were very interesting. However, she now knew that Huo Tian had suggested this after careful consideration. Moreover, her intentions were completely for her parents.
Ding Rong's heart felt warm and soft. She couldn't help but lean over and hug Huo Tian. She felt that her eyes were a little sore and blinked before she managed to suppress the tears that welled up from her feeling touched.
The emotions contained in this hug were too rich and exquisite, making even Huo Tian, who was usually able to accept all emotions generously, feel embarrassed. She stayed in Ding Rong's arms awkwardly and complained in a soft voice, "Mom, you suddenly hugged me again."
Ding Rong planted a kiss on Huo Tian's face before letting her go. She had thought about it carefully just now. When she looked at Huo Tian, her gaze was serious and solemn. "Tiantian, if your father and I have another child, won't you feel disappointed? Many children don't like to share their parents with another."
Huo Tian dragged her voice speechlessly and said, "Mom, I'm not a child anymore. I'm not that possessive anymore..."
Meeting Ding Rong's disapproving gaze, Huo Tian suddenly remembered that she had caused a ruckus to prevent Ding Rong from coming into contact with Huo You. Her face instantly flushed red from embarrassment and anger, and she explained forcefully, "At least, I won't mind sharing the love of my parents with my younger brother or sister who is related to me by blood. Moreover, the love between family members doesn't have a fixed amount. It's not as if when love is given to one child, the amount given to another child will decrease. I believe that you guys will be fair. However, it's fine even if you guys are a little biased towards my younger sibling. I won't be jealous of children!"
