"Why are you so easily frightened? If I'm not around, aren't you going to end up sobbing?"
Chenxing pouted, "Why wouldn't you be with me? Dreams are really scary. I don't understand why people have them."
"There will always be times when I'm not with you. What will you do then?"
Chenxing snuggled up to him, "Then I will join you, wherever you are, that's where I'll be, Shaocheng. Will we stay together forever? Promise?"
"You depend on me so much?"
"Don't you like it?"
"Very much." Gu Shaocheng murmured, his voice trembling like a hidden mountain stream.
But...
"Chenxing, bear a child for me."
Gu Shaocheng played with her hair without giving it a second thought. Have twin sons, one to give away, one to keep by his side, to inherit the Gu Family in the future. With his brothers helping to raise him, he wouldn't turn out worse than his father. If she did that, she'd have something to rely on in her later life. Women, it's more reliable to depend on their son rather than a man!
