Zhan Yun asked if he should give it a try, but Chu Xu had no reaction at all; he neither agreed nor disagreed. He seemed as if he hadn't heard Zhan Yun's voice.
In fact, it wasn't that Chu Xu looked down on Zhan Yun, but he was already in a panic.
Even though Chu Xu was standing straight, maintaining his usual cool demeanor,
his hands and feet were ice-cold, and his mind was a complete mess. The feeling that disaster was imminent made Chu Xu's mind go blank.
Ling'er was too important to the Chu Family. In Chu Xu's generation, the family's progeny had been very unusual, resulting in over twenty consecutive births of sons.
Later, in order to have a daughter, the Chu Family's great-grandmother donated millions in incense money to temples, and finally, a girl was born. The entire family was overjoyed and named this girl "Ling'er."
After Ling'er, it was only boys again. Consequently, boys were not favored in the Chu Family; only Ling'er was the apple of everyone's eye.
