And Yan Huan had to be an actress too. In fear of affecting their careers, most actors and actresses these days had children at the age of 30 to 40, or not have any at all.
She was worried that Yan Huan had the same mindset. If she gave birth in her thirties, Lu Yi would be nearing 40 by then. By then, Ye Shuyun and Lu Jing would be in their 50-60s. That meant they wouldn't have much time together with their grandchildren, especially if they only lived to 60-70.
"Let the young people do their thing," said Lu Jin, who was more optimistic. "Our son knows what he's doing. No matter how much he spoils Yan Huan, he knows the duties he has to fulfill. Plus, I feel that Yan Huan is a good girl, and not the kind that would prioritize work over everything else. How often do you see an actress whipping up a table for her family anyway?"
