âHow can you like sour foods?â Jian Yumin hastily denied. âYou should like spicy foods! You must like spicy foods.â
âNo no, I donât want to eat spicy foods. Sour foods seem more refreshing for me,â Luo Xiuen replied with certainty. She knew what she liked to eat.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âNo no! You must not like sour foods!â Jian Yumin said in a panicked voice.
âWhy canât I like sour foods?â Luo Xiuen asked. She was rather confused.
âMy brother is right! You canât like sour foods. You have to like spicy foods!â Jian Yujie echoed.
Jian Yuncheng said in a heavy tone: âThereâs a saying that if a woman likes to eat sour foods during her pregnancy, she will give birth to a boy. On the other hand, if a woman likes to eat spicy foods during her pregnancy, she will give birth to a girl.â
âHuh?â Luo Xiuen exclaimed with surprise. Then, she explained: âNah itâs alright. Thereâs no scientific basis for that statement. And hence, thereâs no real correlation between what you eat and the gender of a child. Either way, the baby in my belly is definitely a girl! I donât want a boy! Iâm surrounded by so many men already! I want a darling girl!â
âAhh perhaps⦠But maybe it has some truth to itâ¦â Jian Yumin replied. After a pause, he said: âWhy donât you mull over it a bit more? Maybe youâre actually craving spicy foods.â
âIâ¦â Luo Xiuen said before she trailed off. âBut I still want to eat sour foodsâ¦â
She couldnât change what she was craving.
During their conversation, Jian Yiling already ordered dishes for Luo Xiuen.
âDonât dwell on it, both are good,â Jian Yiling said.
âYep! My sister is right. Donât dwell on it too much. Even if itâs a boy, heâd still be cute!â Jian Yujie said quickly.
âAhh, I guess,â Jian Yumin said. âMaybe my daughter has a unique taste in food.â
âBrother, if the baby is a son, heâd be sad,â Jian Yujie reminded.
Jian Yumin: âWell, if itâs a son Then, we will have another child!â
Jian Yumin was willing to accept a son.
âWho⦠Who wants to have another babyâ¦â Luo Xiuen said as she blushed.
âDonât you want a daughter?â
âI do⦠Want a daughter⦠Butâ¦â Luo Xiuen stuttered. But she didnât agree to have another child with himâ¦
âWell, if we have a few more children, we will definitely get a daughter,â Jian Yumin said with confidence.
âI didnât⦠Didnât say that I wanted to have more childrenâ¦â
âYouâre my wife. If I want a daughter, youâll have to give birth to her, no? Who else would I ask?â Jian Yumin said. He acted as though justice was on his side and his logic was impeccable.
Upon hearing this, Jian Yujie rubbed his temple. Ahh⦠His brother needed some help. If it werenât for the fact that his wife used to be his fan, his brother would probably be single forever!
Not long after, Jian Yiheng and Jian Yichen finally arrived.
âYiling, do you miss me?â Jian Yichen asked as he squeezed beside Jian Yiling.
âI saw you this morning,â Jian Yiling replied.
How could she miss him if she saw him earlier today?
Jian Yujie said with jealousy: âBrother Yichen is quite cunning. Since you live across Yiling, you can see her whenever you want.â
Upon hearing this, Jian Yichen replied gleefully: âHey kiddo, if you compliment me, I will consider renting you the vacant room in my apartment.â
Jian Yujie: âIâm not a kiddo. Iâm already twenty years old.â
Jian Yichen: âWell, in the eyes of your brothers, youâre always a kiddo.â
When he heard this, Jian Yujie couldnât help but mutter things in his heart. He knew that whenever his brothers were here, he wouldnât steal his sisterâs attention.
However, Jian Yujie did not realize that the man seated across from him had less presence than him.
