Chapter 966

"All of us have kids already, you're the only one left, you better hurry up and catch up . . . " A classmate one year younger than Cheng Yang downed a cup of beer before turning to Qiao Anxia . "Sis, you're pretty and Cheng Yang is handsome, you guys would certainly have superior genes . If you were to have children, I’m sure the child would look stunning . If you pick up, next year, we'll be drinking at your child's one month celebration . "

Qiao Anxia's hand tightened silently, her newly done nails pushing into her palm, sending a sharp piercing pain through her, but on her face she struggled to maintain a slight smile .

Cheng Yang, who was hugging onto her shoulders sensed her tenseness . He immediately spoke up, interrupting the rambling classmate . "Enough, why don't you talk about your wife? Weren't you complaining on Wechat a while ago?"

The classmate shook his head, sighing . "What can I do? Maybe it's the seven year curse— we quarrel whenever we see each other, but thinking about separation, makes my heart feel empty . . . "

Everyone present was married, the earliest to marry already had a child in elementary school . The conversation seemed to strike a cord in many of those present, and Qiao Anxia managed to escape the uncomfortable conversation . She sighed inwardly, lowering her head to stare at the wineglass, her gaze turning blurry .

Initially, Cheng Yang would always tell others he was the one that didn't want children and not that she was impotent so that others wouldn't look at her differently . But as time went, and despite the countless methods she tried, she still remained unable to get pregnant . The tiny glimmer of hope in her heart started to fade, turning into despair . At the celebration, when others asked why she didn't want kids, she felt as if she was struck, starting to feel a hard to explain sense of anxiety, as though she had done something wrong .

–

When they came back from the celebration, it was already 4 am . Since Cheng Yang had a lot of alcohol, Qiao Anxia was the one who drove .

He seemed to be in a good mood . When he entered the bedroom, he continuously shouted, "Wifey, Xia Xia . " After repeating it a few times, he started to kiss her and they successfully completed the intimate act she had refused the night before .

When everything was over, Cheng Yang fell asleep . Even though Qiao Anxia knew the chances of pregnancy were low, she still followed the position she found online that aided pregnancy .

After about half an hour, Cheng Yang's phone rang, the screen reflecting the name "Lin Wei" .

Qiao Anxia knew who she was, she was a newly signed artist under Huan Ying Entertainment and had once acted alongside Cheng Yang in a movie . Even though she didn't have much lines, it was a memorable role .

Qiao Anxia also knew that Lin Wei had a thing for Cheng Yang, always trying to get close to him .

It wasn't that she was confident that he won't waver but rather she was confident he won't betray her .

Hence, she lowered the volume before dismissing the call .

She seemed to have been influenced by Cheng Yang's drowsiness, so she decided to take a short nap . By the time she woke up, it was 6 pm but Cheng Yang remained fast asleep . Qiao Anxia headed to the kitchen to prepare dinner . At that moment, she received a call .
