Chapter 964

Eight years ago, when Qiao Anxia had protected Qiao Anhao from a stab, she lost her chance at being a mother .

Almost . . . That one word from the doctor shone a glimpse of light into her despair, even if the possibility was slight, she never once gave up .

Initially, Cheng Yang would still accompany her to the doctor, but when he saw her taking endless amounts of herbal medicines for three whole years, he suggested giving up .

At that time, Cheng Yang who had always been patient and understanding towards her flew into a rage because she insisted on taking the medication . Ever since then, she started to take the medication secretly, but after so many years, she still wasn't able to conceive a child .

Qiao Anxia's mood fell instantly .

–

Cheng Yang had to discuss a contract the next day . When he came back, he brought a bunch of things .

Qiao Anxia went forward to take a look, realizing that they were all toys .

Cheng Yang sensed her confusion so he explained that it was for a friend that just gave birth to twins .

Among the bags of toys were two pretty bags, one for a boy and one for a girl . Needless to say, it was definitely for Little Rice Cake and Little Red Bean .

If Qiao Anxia were to recall, in the past eight years, he had often bought stuff for the both of them . Several times when she accompanied him, he would have on a serious expression and, every once in a while, he would suggest heading to Mian Xiu Garden . Even though he didn't specify the reason, she knew it was to visit the kids .

Deep in his heart, he must really want a child, right?

"What are you thinking about?" Cheng Yang asked when he saw her staring intently at the two bags . Reaching out, he caressed her hair lightly .

Qiao Anxia snapped back to her senses . She shook her head and diverted the conversation . "What are we having tonight?"

"What do you want to eat?"

"Spicy food?"

"Sure," Cheng Yang agreed without hesitation . "Let me change before bringing you out . "

Qiao Anxia nodded obediently .

He planted a kiss on her forehead before entering the bedroom .

After the meal, Cheng Yang and Qiao Anxia went to catch a newly released movie with Lu Jinnian as the main lead . It was high in box office and the ratings were good . After they watched the movie, they agreed that it was indeed as the comments had mentioned . When they returned home, it was already 11 pm .

Cheng Yang started the water for the bath after his shower . He even placed Qiao Anxia's pajamas on the chair beside the bathtub .

When she was done with her bath, he was no longer in the bedroom . Curious, she walked out in search of him . The study room was lit up and there was a soft mumbling from the room .

"Mom, I already told you, I'm the one that doesn't want kids, not Xia Xia . "

"Xia Xia has always wanted kids, but I find them troublesome so I didn't let her conceive . "

"I'm not lying to you, you're my mother, why would I lie to you? I'm not trying to protect Xia Xia by saying that . "

"Please don't call Xia Xia, I'm the one that doesn't want kids . If you call her, it'll seem like I'm blaming her for not having kids . "

"I already said I'm the one that doesn't want kids!"

Cheng Yang spoke in a visibly irritated tone .

Qiao Anxia lowered her eyes . Her expression darkening, she headed back to the bedroom on light feet .
