Never Meeting Again In Our Next Life (Living Life Over) - Volume 2 (29)
Chapter 29 Jumping into the Pit
After hearing this, Xia Liang actually reached out and touched his stomach. Then he seemed to realize that he had done something stupid and let go of his hand as if he was electrocuted.
Zhou Shuo straightened up, knelt down at Xia Liang’s feet with his knees together, and said urgently: “Brother Liang, whether you call me selfish or a rogue, I really don’t want to sentence my child to death like this.”
”I haven’t seen my parents since I was a child. I heard from the director of the orphanage that my parents left me at the door of the orphanage when I was a few months old. I used to always wonder why my parents Are you abandoning me because of poverty or because you are not tolerated by the world? If I have a child in the future, I will definitely not abandon it. If I don’t have money, I will pick up rags and raise the child. If I am not tolerated by the world, I took my child and ran to a place where no one knew us. As long as I live, I will never abandon my child…”
”I understand what you mean.” Xia Liang’s emotions gradually calmed down. He leaned forward and approached Zhou Shuo and said, “I know you are reluctant to let go. You have had no father and mother since you were a child. How can you have one more person connected by blood?” It’s not easy to have a loved one. What’s more, it’s also my flesh and blood, and I’m not completely emotionless about it.”
Zhou Shuo was stunned for a moment. He did not expect that Xia Liang would react like this.
But I heard Xia Liang continue: “But the problem is that this child was cast in the wrong place, and he should not have come to me. I don’t care how natural this kind of thing is in the ABO world, but it is common sense here. Here, there is no Alpha, no Omega, and it is impossible for a man to have a child. Leaving a child is just a good idea, but what should I do in the future? How can I hide it from the eyes of the world, how can I explain its origin to the elders, Even if these are not problems, the most important thing is, how do I give birth to it? No hospital here has ever delivered a baby for a man. What if there is an accident during the delivery process? What do you ask the hospital to do? These practical questions do you Have you thought about it? Can we afford these risks?”
Zhou Shuo was left speechless by the question. Ever since he found out that Xia Liang was pregnant, his emotions had been ups and downs. He had been wavering between obeying Xia Liang’s will and defying Xia Liang’s will, but he didn’t expect , during the period of hesitation, Xia Liang had already thought about so many things silently.
Seeing that Zhou Shuo was silent, Xia Liang took a breath and continued: “Of course, the above problems are only problems that may exist in an ideal situation, but the reality will only be more cruel than this, and it is very likely that I will not be able to survive at all. Once the child is born, the Xia family has been turned upside down.”
Zhou Shuo was startled and raised his head to look at Xia Liang in confusion.
Just listen to Xia Liang continue: “Now my father has handed over the entire Xia family to my hands. I am now equivalent to the identity of the head of the Xia family, but this head of the family is not easy to be. I am still too young, and the family The elders here are all still alive. Whenever a decision is made regarding the fate of the family, one must carefully weigh the pros and cons of all parties. An accidental omission may offend the interests of one of the parties and lay hidden dangers for the future. ——This is not only internal worries, but also external ones. After the Xia and Song families joined forces, their development momentum was so strong that it would inevitably block other people’s financial paths, and it would inevitably offend their colleagues in the industry. I don’t know how many people have red eyes, openly or secretly. Staring at us, waiting for opportunities to throw dirty water on us and stumbling upon us. At this time, I must be more cautious, not to make any mistakes, let alone to be caught in any way that can threaten Xia. If I am pregnant When the news of the birth of a child spreads, let alone what will happen to the elders in the family, the entire Xia family will immediately fall into a situation of embarrassment from all sides, and may even involve the Song family and be smeared. I can’t let the Xia family be destroyed in my hands, you understand ?”
Zhou Shuo maintained his posture of sitting on his knees, his head lowered and did not speak for a long time.
I don’t know how long it took, but when Xia Liang thought Zhou Shuo was discouraged and wanted to give up, they heard Zhou Shuo whisper: “I can.”
”What?” Xia Liang didn’t understand for a moment.
”Brother Liang, Zhou Shuo clenched his hands into fists, as if he mustered up a lifetime of courage. He raised his head and looked at Xia Liang, “I did not think carefully about the difficulties and obstacles you mentioned before, but now you have said , I will try hard to think and find solutions. ”
Xia Liang didn’t expect him to be so stubborn. She pointed at him and trembled with anger: “Well, tell me what nonsense you can do!”
Zhou Shuo thought about it seriously and said, “We do lack experience when it comes to giving birth, but I think we can discuss it with Du Lanze. Maybe he will have a more appropriate solution. As for what you said Those internal and external troubles are all based on the fact that you do everything yourself. You are in the light and they are in the dark. Naturally, there are constraints and constraints in everything when doing things. But if I change the operating mode, let me be in Being in front of the stage becomes your hands and your eyes and ears, while you hide behind the scenes so that you can strategize and win the battle thousands of miles away.”
”You’re even quoting scriptures from me,” Xia Liang was almost laughed out of anger at this moment, “The reason why Zhang Liang can win thousands of miles away is because Liu Bang has Xiao He inside and Han Xin outside. Do I have that?”
”I can be Xiao He, or I can be Han Xin.” Zhou Shuo almost blurted out, as if he had been waiting for this sentence for a long time, “Brother Liang, you always said in the past that I lacked self-confidence, lacked energy, didn’t know how to stand out, and didn’t know how to stand out. Strive for yourself – Actually, it’s not that I don’t understand, but I think it’s not necessary. You are enough for the Xia family. I just want to follow you and be your assistant. But now, the situation has changed and I have a goal. , I also have motivation. As long as you give me a chance, I will definitely try my best to do
to your satisfaction. Brother Liang, please believe me! ”
Xia Liang narrowed his eyes and stared at Zhou Shuo calmly for a long time.
In the past, he intended to cultivate Zhou Shuo to become his great help in the Xia family, but Zhou Shuo was concerned about Mrs. Xia’s fear of people with foreign surnames, so he always deliberately kept his reputation obscure and was willing to be mediocre.
Unexpectedly, a child who unexpectedly appeared now would inspire such a strong and high-spirited fighting spirit in Zhou Shuo, which made him look at him with admiration.
Zhou Shuo thought that Xia Liang remained silent because he doubted the plan he proposed, so he added: “You hide behind the scenes, you can also change light into darkness, and get rid of those with malicious intentions. Not only do you have more room for action, It can also be used to the advantage of setting up suspicions, with mixed truth and falsehood, making it difficult for outsiders to figure it out. This will actually make them hesitant and afraid to take action rashly…”
Before Zhou Shuo finished speaking, Xia Liang suddenly asked, “Who will raise the child after it is born?”
Zhou Shuo was stunned for a moment, and it took him a while to finally realize. He was afraid that Xia Liang would regret it, so he immediately held Xia Liang’s hand and said, “I’ll raise it! Brother Liang, as long as you are willing to give birth to the child, I will take care of everything about the child.” Bao, I won’t cause you any trouble!”
Xia Liang stroked his forehead, wanting to give himself a slap in the face.
He was definitely possessed just now, and he actually followed Zhou Shuo’s thoughts and thought about what would happen after the child was born.
In fact, he just asked casually, but after he said the words, he realized that he was digging a hole for himself, a hole that would be difficult to get out of after jumping into it.
