Parental Qualification Certificate - Chapter 8
After spending the afternoon with Sister Mei, and having dinner together, Su Yutan returned to the Sunshine City district.
Since the age of eleven, she has lived here with her adoptive mother Song Yongning. After her adoptive mother died, she left the property to her.
Sunshine City is a mid-to-high-end community.
The ninth building where Su Yutan and her adoptive mother live is a jump-level residential building.
There are two units in the building, with each unit taking the elevator and stairs as the core. There are four houses in the four directions of southeast, northwest, and one house on each two floors, which are ABcD blocks.
Because the location of Block C on the first floor is the lobby, and the location of Block D on the first floor is the public gymnasium, the floors of Block A and Block B and Block C and D are staggered.
Block A and B share the east elevator room, and only enter the house on the singular floor; Block C and D share the west elevator room, and only enter the house on the even floor.
The two elevators are juxtaposed from north to south, and can be opened from east to west, leading to two elevator rooms respectively.
Su Yutan’s family lives in Block B on the 19th floor. This is a house on the south side of the building with very good lighting.
Her true neighbor is only Block A on the 19th floor. In the eastward house, there was a big family. Unfortunately, the family went to the alien galaxy and did not know when they would return. She has no neighbors.
The entrance door on the south side of the east elevator room on the 19th floor is the door of Su Yutan’s house.
The entrance door is the living room. On the west side of the living room are a restaurant, a closed fully automatic kitchen, a public toilet, and a gym.
On the south side of the living room is a large balcony, and on the west side of the balcony are two guest rooms with bathrooms.
The inner staircase leans against the north wall of the restaurant. The middle of the second floor of the suite is the living room, which corresponds to the location of the restaurant on the first floor.
Around the living room on the second floor are the storage room, the study, the mother’s master bedroom, Su Yutan’s bedroom, and the painting room.
Although her adoptive mother had died for more than three years, Su Yutan never thought of moving to the master bedroom.
Everything there was intact, and Su Yutan sometimes went in to look at it, and felt that the adoptive mother was still alive.
Butler robot Milo stood at the door to meet Su Yutan.
Milo was originally a nanny robot of Dr. Song Yuning, but later upgraded to a housekeeping robot. He is a tall, handsome young man who looks very safe.
Su Yutan exchanged a few words with Mi Luo casually, and Mi Luo gave her monitoring of neurotransmitters and brain waves.
As a severe latent patient, this monitoring is a daily necessity.
The monitored data will be automatically sent to Lu Xiaozhi’s mailbox.
Based on these data, Lu Xiaozhi will work with the pharmacist to prepare an appropriate neurotransmitter modulator for her to take daily to prevent various complications of latent wounds.
Milo finished monitoring her and found that the data was normal. She opened a tube of medicine and gave it to her.
Su Yutan took the medicine tube and poured the medicine solution into his mouth. The bitter and astringent taste permeated the mouth, but she was used to it.
Later, Su Yutan changed into loose clothes and entered the studio.
She has always kept her hobby of drawing. The adoptive mother and Lu Xiaozhi also strongly support her doing this, because it will help channel her emotions and ease her subconscious tension.
At 10:30 in the evening, the smart core Mia in the watch reminded her: it’s time to sleep.
Su Yutan stopped the brush with regret. I was interrupted when I was inspired.
The doctor said: she must work and rest regularly, can’t stay up late. She didn’t intend to disobey the doctor’s orders, so she had to sacrifice inspiration.
When Su Yutan took off her apron and quilt, she thought: If you paint like this, you can only think of painting as a hobby.
As a vocational test in middle school, she was very talented in painting.
However, due to various considerations, she gave up her career as a professional painter and became a teacher and sister of the same school and specialty of Lu Xiaozhi.
After studying clinical psychiatry for two years, she admitted that she lacked the qualifications to become a doctor and minored in social work.
After graduating, she entered the Bureau of Social Affairs with a double bachelor’s degree in clinical psychiatry and social engineering and worked as a tester for the stress resistance test.
Now, she is giving up her post as a tester.
Before going to bed, she took out her egg donation certificate and looked at it for a long time.
At the age of eighteen, she donated an egg at the Xinhai Reproductive Service Center.
Will this egg have a day of successful pairing? If so, what kind of family would he or she be born in? What kind of guardian and life track will there be? Will he or she be willing to meet his biological mother when he is an adult?
None of this is known.
————————
The next day is Saturday.
Su Yutan never expected that she was still worried about yesterday, so she had the exact news so soon.
A staffer named Alice from the Xinhai Reproductive Service Center suddenly contacted her and told her: “The egg you donated has been combined with a gentleman’s reproductive cells and developed into an 8-week-old fetus. But now , The child’s intended adoptive mother died unexpectedly … “
Alice said: The child’s original foster mother was Winnie, who had a genetic mutation.
Winnie fell in love with her nanny robot, and upgraded the nanny robot into a companion robot, and became a husband and wife with the robot.
Real people and robots “marry” are not prohibited by law, but they are not recognized. This is a marginal area.
Winnie wants a child, her own germ cells cannot be used, and the robot “husband” can only use donated germ cells without germ cells.
When the embryo was successfully implanted in the in vitro fertilization trough, Winnie took a long vacation, traveling around the planet with the robot “husband” and enjoying the last two-person world, but died unexpectedly during a space walk.
When he heard the news, Su Yutan was a little embarrassed.
The first thought was: does she have children?
The second thought was: The child’s intended adoptive mother died, and the companion robot was not eligible to adopt a child. What should the child do?
As a social worker with a professional qualification, she immediately thought of the relevant laws:
If a child raised from a donated egg (or sperm) has a fostering parent who is unable or unable to raise before the birth, the child ’s biological parent has priority to adopt the child.
Her heart suddenly jumped: She and her baby’s biological father both have the right to adopt? Who adopted?
Immediately afterwards, her mood sank again quickly.
The prerequisite for the exercise of the right of priority adoption is that the adopter holds the Parental Qualification Certificate.
It is impossible for her to get the “Parental Qualification Certificate”. How could she adopt this child? !!
It is difficult for Su Yutan to tell what is in her heart.
But no matter what, she wanted to look at the child first, to see what kind of biological father the child was.
She told Milo to keep the matter secret, and quickly changed out her clothes, picked up her bag, and took a flying saucer to Xinhai Reproductive Service Center.
The reproductive service center is very close to the Sunshine City community. Within a quarter of an hour, Su Yutan was sitting in Alice’s office.
Alice is a middle-aged lady with a slightly fat build and a very easy-going smile.
On behalf of the Reproductive Service Center, she thanked Su Yutan for her donation of eggs and explained her “priority of adoption” again.
She emphasized: “From a chromosomal perspective, this child is a girl, and we tend to be raised by the child’s mother.
“But ‘Priority of adoption’ is your right, not an obligation.
“That is to say, you have no responsibility to adopt this child. If you give up adoption, you will not be adversely affected-your social credit rating will not be lowered, and you will not need to pay maintenance. Understand?”
Su Yutan nodded: “I understand.” There wasn’t much explanation for why she understood this.
The Reproductive Service Center accepts donations from germ cells. It only tests donors for biological diagnosis, talent level, and propensity tests, and does not care about the sociological information of the donor. Therefore, Alice must not know her condition.
“Then you have the will to adopt this child?” Alice asked her.
Su Yutan Ke restrained his inner hesitation and regret, and said stiffly, “I’m afraid it’s not convenient.”
Alice smiled and comforted her: “Relax, boy! You just donated an egg, did a good deed, and did not need any psychological burden at all. A young girl like you is not ready to be a mother. Quite normal. I’m afraid you don’t have a Parental Qualification Card yet? “
Su Yutan nodded: “Yes. I don’t.” About never will.
“Then you want to see the child, see the biological father of the child?” Alice still smiled very easily. “Seeing or not, it all depends on your wishes.”
Su Yutan nodded: “See you.”
“Then wait a moment, the biological father of the child is coming over. When he comes, I will take you to see the child.”
Su Yutan has a little more affection for his child’s biological father. At least, as soon as he knew the news, he came like her.
Alice took out the paper documents and electronic papers she had given up for adoption and asked her to sign.
Su Yutan signed his name, leaving his genetic print, and his fingers trembling slightly.
The knock sounded.
When Alice said “Please come in”, the door was gently opened.
Su Yutan turned her head and saw a 27-year-old man standing at the door.
He wore a black turtleneck undershirt and a dark gray casual suit. He was low-key, elegant, and upright.
His features are very delicate, the pair of dark eyes are particularly deep, and the eyelashes around the eyes are growing very densely.
Su Yutan feels that this man has a calm and restrained temperament that is both confident and restrained.
He is like the open sea at quiet night, no waves, no waves, no one can see his depth and margins, and no one dares to ignore his vastness and strength.
The man glanced at Su Yutan, showed a polite smile to Alice, and spit out five words simply: “I am Qiao Wangchuan.”
Su Yutan thought: This is the biological father of my child?
Alice introduced Su Yutan and Qiao Wangchuan to each other’s identities.
Unfamiliar men and women who already have a child, stretch their arms and say hello to each other very politely.
Su Yutan thinks: This situation is slightly weird.
Qiao Wangchuan moved the chair back, before sitting obliquely on the chair.
His two long legs stretched forward very leisurely, without feeling half-constrained.
