After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!-Chapter 2422: Letting Go
Chapter 2422: Letting Go
“How can there be so many coincidences at the same time? Stop slandering Qian’e! I know that Qian’e is single now so there are people who want to try and get a share of her money. There are people who can’t wait to skin her alive! However, you have to take a good look at yourself first! Don’t go too far!” Qiao Mei scolded.
Zhao Zhi did not dare to argue with Qiao Mei. She thought about giving up, but when she looked down and saw how badly Huang Xuan had been beaten up, she shouted in anger, “But my son has been beaten up! You have to compensate us for the medical fees!”
“Sure. Da Zhuang, get someone to work out the medical fees with her. At the same time, she has to compensate us for the disruption in our work schedule, as well as compensate us for the medical fees of our workers who are injured during the fight. Make sure everything is properly accounted for,” Qiao Mei said.
“Alright.” With that, Da Zhuang left with Zhao Zhi and Huang Xuan. All the factory workers sensibly dispersed and went back to work.
Qiao Mei led Qian’e back to the office. After what Zhao Zhi did, Qian’e did not have much strength left. She felt as if all her energy had been sucked out of her.
“Why don’t you consider marrying Da Zhuang? Once you do that, no one will bother you anymore. Besides, Da Zhuang is really a very nice person,” Qiao Mei said tentatively.
“I… but I can’t hold him back. I don’t have my uterus anymore. I can’t be the reason why he doesn’t have children!” Qian’e said, looking troubled.
“I thought Da Zhuang doesn’t care about this?” Qiao Mei said.
“Then… then are we able to sleep together? Since I don’t even have a uterus anymore…” Qian’e whispered.
In this era, societal practices were still very feudal and people did not have much common knowledge. No one talked about such things in private and parents did not teach their kids about sex education. It was quite normal that Qian’e was so ignorant about this topic.
Qiao Mei patiently explained the situation to Qian’e, but Qian’e still could not quite understand. In the end, Qiao Mei had to draw a diagram of the female productive organs and give Qian’e a proper biology lesson. After that, Qian’e finally had an understanding of what was going on.
“I see…” Qian’e said.
Qiao Mei thought for a long time before she said, “Actually, it’s not impossible for you to have your own child.”
“What do you mean? I don’t even have a uterus anymore. How can I have my own child?” Qian’e asked Qiao Mei in shock.
After a couple of decades, technology would become very advanced. Qian’e had only removed her uterus, not her ovaries. She could freeze her eggs first and then wait for technology to catch up to the point where it was possible to have test-tube babies. Even though Qian’e did not have a uterus anymore, doctors might eventually be able to implant an artificial one into her body. As long as technology kept improving, that day would come.
Qiao Mei had handled a similar medical lawsuit in her other life and understood most of the principles behind it. As Qian’e listened to what Qiao Mei said, the more excited she became and her eyes were filled with hope.
The truth was that Qian’e had always hoped to have a child of her own. When she was young, she was insensible and had done many irreparable things. Hearing what Qiao Mei said, she had regained hope that she could become a normal person again! Just thinking about it made her excited. This might be a reward from the heavens for being able to survive all the tribulations in her life.
Qian’e looked at the diagram which Qiao Mei drew and wept silently. Qiao Mei sighed and pushed open the door to walk out of the office. She had only taken a few steps when she heard heart-wrenching wails coming out of the office. Qiao Mei understood that these tears contained all the grievances and despair that Qian’e had accumulated over the years. She really needed to vent it all out.
Da Zhuang returned after dealing with the matters at the police station and heard Qian’e wailing loudly. He was shocked and asked Qiao Mei, “What’s wrong with Qian’e? Is it because she still can’t accept what happened the other day?”
“Allow her to let off some steam. Come with me and don’t disturb her,” Qiao Mei said.
Da Zhuang drove Qiao Mei home. He was distracted the entire journey and was constantly worried that Qian’e would take things too hard.
“When do you intend to hold the wedding?” Qiao Mei suddenly asked.
“What? Whose wedding? Is someone getting married?” Da Zhuang asked curiously.
“Your wedding with Qian’e,” Qiao Mei said.
Da Zhuang slammed on the brakes so hard that Qiao Mei almost flew out. Da Zhuang quickly pulled over at the side of the road and looked back at Qiao Mei in disbelief, asking, “Is Qian’e agreeable to the idea?”
“I’m guessing it’s close to the mark. Think about the kind of wedding you want and where the two of you will stay after getting married,” Qiao Mei said as she held back her laughter.
Da Zhuang flapped his arms excitedly and said agitatedly, “I… I don’t know! Whatever Qian’e says! She has the final say! I’ll do whatever she wants!”
Qiao Mei nodded in satisfaction. She liked Da Zhuang’s thinking process. Qian’e was finally going to get the happiness she deserved. Along the way home, Da Zhuang hummed a tune. It was as if he wanted the whole world to know that he was in a good mood.
Qian’e had finally made peace with herself. Previously, she had rejected Da Zhuang time and time again because she could not have children with him and did not want to hold him back. Now that she could finally let go of the weight in her heart, she was definitely willing to marry him.
