Chapter 324: Lu An Might Be Depressed

“You raised Niannian up and are willing to marry her to me. I’m very grateful to you, so no matter what difficulties you encounter in the future, I’ll do my best to help.”
Lu An wasn’t just saying that. He was making a promise to Teacher Tan. Since he married Jin Nian, he became a part of the Jin family and did not treat him as an outsider.
Jin Chengwen and Tan Siyun looked at Lu An and couldn’t help but praise him. “You’re so sensible. If only I had such a wonderful son like you.”
“A son-in-law is equivalent to half a son. You two elders can treat me as your son. You don’t have to worry about anything. I’ll take care of everything from behind. You just have to take care of your bodies.”
When Lu An was young, he would often freeload at the Jin family’s house and even live here for a period of time. Jin Chengwen and Tan Siyun had almost never quarreled. Although the family of three wasn’t very rich, the three of them were especially happy. That was the family atmosphere that Lu An yearned for the most when he was young.
After settling this matter, the old couple were in a particularly good mood. Jin Chengwen insisted on pulling Lu An to play chess with them while Tan Siyun and Jin Nian went to the bedroom to chat.
The mother and daughter hadn’t seen each other for more than a month. There were many topics to talk about this time, but for some reason, they talked about having children.
Teacher Tan said very seriously, “The country is encouraging second children now. Both of you are rich and free, and both of you are good-looking. Have another child while you are young.”
“Lu Yuzhou is so good-looking. It would be even better if you could give birth to a beautiful daughter.”
As Teacher Tan spoke, she imagined a cute little baby calling her grandma sweetly in her mind.
Jin Nian waved her hands. “Forget it. I’m busy with work now. I don’t have time to have children. Besides, Lu Keke is enough for Lu An to take care of. It’ll be too hard for him to take care of another child.”
Teacher Tan rolled her eyes. “As a mother, you don’t take care of your child at all. You pushed all the responsibility to Lu An. He’s the CEO of a big company. Every project costs hundreds of millions. Now, he’s at home changing the child’s diapers and feeding him every day. Do you feel bad about it?”
Jin Nian’s eyes widened. She didn’t expect Teacher Tan to criticize her because of Lu An. She said with an aggrieved expression, “Mom, whose biological mother are you? Why do you always speak up for Lu An?”
“Niannian, Lu An is good to you, but you can’t always make him be the one to give up. Although he doesn’t say it on the surface, he must have changed his mind when he saw everyone else go out to work and give pointers in the workplace while he’s the only one taking care of the children at home.”
“I think I’ll be retiring in two years. If you guys don’t have time to work, I can also take care of the children. Young people still have to go out to work. It doesn’t matter if they earn money or not. The main thing is that they will feel that they have lost their value after staying at home for a long time. I’ve been at home for a few days, and 1 feel that I’m about to become depressed.”
Teacher Tan gave a long speech because she was afraid that Lu An would feel depressed if he stayed at home for too long. After all, he was the CEO of a large company. Now that he had returned to his family and only guarded that square inch of land every day, the difference was too great.
Jin Nian was silent, and a wave of bitterness surged in her heart. Lu An had always been sunny and cheerful in front of her. Could it be that when she was not looking, he would also be depressed and lonely?
After giving birth, Jin Nian couldn’t wait to go to work. She wanted to realize her value through work but forgot that Lu An was also a career-oriented man.
“Niannian, listen to me. While Lu Keke is still young, quickly give birth to another child. When you and Lu An return to the workplace, I’ll help you take care of the child. In a few years, when the child grows up, you won’t have to worry about it.”
“Let me think about it carefully,” Jin Nian said after a moment of hesitation.
Teacher Tan felt that she had said everything she needed to say. She wanted her daughter to have a happy family. Now that Lu An was willing to give up, he might have complaints in the future. n))𝕠-(𝓋(-𝓮-/𝐋-)𝐛-)1-(n
At eight o’clock in the evening, they drove away.
On the way, Jin Nian had been thinking about what Teacher Tan said. She had to admit that what Teacher Tan said made sense.
When he got home, he carried Lu Keke to the nanny while Lu An carried Jin Nian into the bedroom.
“What’s wrong?” Lu An asked softly as he sat her on the bed. “Did Mom say anything to you?”
Jin Nian looked at Lu An and suddenly said, “Lu An, do you feel depressed when you’re at home raising a child? Will you be depressed if you don’t go to work all the time?”
When Lu An heard this, he could guess what Teacher Tan and Jin Nian were talking about. He smiled and said, “Flow is that possible? Although I don’t work at the company anymore, 1 still have my own career. Occasionally, I still have to go on business trips. As for taking care of children, I wasn’t used to it at first. Now, it’s quite interesting to watch Lu Keke grow up day by day..”
