"What's the matter?"
"I think we should have another child."
"Xu Lai, stop talking nonsense."
Ruan Tang's face flushed as she chided, "I'm hungry. I want to eat first."
"Alright, eat. After you're full, we'll have a meeting about this matter."
Xu Lai said seriously, "Besides, honey, think about it. A hundred years from now, it would be so pitiful for Yiyi to be all alone."
"Still talking about a hundred years from now..."
Ruan Tang rolled her eyes dramatically. "Mr. Xu, may I ask how old you are today?"
"Cough, cough."
Xu Lai choked. "It's not about age! 'A hundred years' is just a metaphor. Do you understand? A metaphor!"
"Not really."
"It's alright if you don't understand. I'll discuss it with you in detail during our meeting later."
Ruan Tang was speechless.
She ate her late-night snack very, very, very slowly.
Xu Lai wasn't in a rush either. He took out the paper engraved with the Immortal Scripture hidden within the Cloud Water Rust and began to study it carefully.
