My Sweet and Charming Wife

Reincarnation Chapter 148

C148 – Qingyue, Your Wife Can’t be Pregnant!!!

I was unaware of her infertility, so I refrained from discussing the matter. However, once she learned of her inability to conceive, her demeanor underwent a transformation. While I had genuinely cared for her initially, it was primarily because I had observed she would be an easy match to manage. With her current emaciated appearance, which mother-in-law would desire her as a daughter-in-law?

Zhao Yun believed she was entirely justified. Under these circumstances, it was unlikely that any mother-in-law would be willing.

Huo Qingyue’s arrival home was delayed due to some unforeseen matters, pushing his return from the expected six o’clock to seven. Upon entering, he sensed an uncomfortable atmosphere. He headed to the outdoor well for a quick shower, unbuttoning his shirt due to the sweltering weather.

Inside, Zhao Yun called out to him, “Qingyue, come here. I have something to discuss with you on behalf of your mother.”

Huo Qingyue noticed the disparity in expressions between his wife and mother and approached to take a seat.

He attempted to hold Gu Yuehuan’s hand but was halted by Zhao Yun. “Wait a moment. It’s not the right time for romantic gestures. Your mother wishes to ask you: do you desire a child?”

Hearing this, Huo Qingyue furrowed his brow, feeling somewhat displeased. “Mom, haven’t we already discussed this? Now isn’t the appropriate time for us to have a child. Why do you keep bringing up this topic?”

“But I’ve said that now is the perfect time for you to start a family. I’m asking, do you want to have a child—either now or in the future?”

Huo Qingyue fixed his gaze upon Gu Yuehuan, sensing something amiss in her demeanor. Being astute, he couldn’t ignore the peculiar reaction and responded, “Yuehuan wants to have children with me, so she will. If she doesn’t wish to, then she won’t.”

Gu Yuehuan hadn’t anticipated his response, and her surprise showed as she looked up at him.

Aware that her son had been deceived, Zhao Yun placed the hospital report in front of him and declared, “Look at your beloved wife. The doctors have confirmed that she’s unable to conceive due to severe uterine blockage. There’s no way for her to have children. She knew this but deceived you, claiming she didn’t want kids. Her dishonesty is a problem, and her refusal to bear children was what troubled her. Only you were credulous enough to believe her. She’s the one who caused your suffering!”

Huo Qingyue picked up the report upon hearing this and scrutinized it, confirming the impossibility of childbirth.

Gu Yuehuan had kept her head down since he arrived, but now, seeing him examine the report, she swallowed hard and honestly confessed, “Qingyue, do you believe me? I didn’t lie to you. I didn’t even know I couldn’t have children until now. I never got it checked before. But this is the result. I’ll wait for your decision. If you think I can’t have kids and want a divorce, I can… I can go to the Registration Centre tomorrow and divorce you. You can find a woman who can bear children and remarry.”

Huo Qingyue, displeased, put the report aside and grasped her hand firmly. “What are you talking about? How can I divorce you because you can’t have children? I want to spend my life with you, not just with a child. Whether you can have kids or not doesn’t matter. If you can’t, we won’t have children. Divorce isn’t an option, so don’t even think about it.”

Zhao Yun’s reaction was intense upon hearing this. She struck his arm and exclaimed, “Huo Qingyue! Are you trying to infuriate me to death? I acknowledge that Yuehuan is a good child, but she can’t conceive now. Not having children means there won’t be grandchildren. She’s even willing to let you go. If you divorce her, she won’t trouble you anymore! It’s a golden opportunity; why aren’t you divorcing her? How can you dismiss the significance of having children? If she doesn’t have kids, how can you continue the family line? This is ruthless! It’s a disgrace to our lineage and sect!”
