Chapter 1260: Chapter 1253 Obstetrics and Gynecology (11) Chapter 1260: Chapter 1253 Obstetrics and Gynecology (11) Lu Weixi also said, “Mom, I’m now 27 years old, I’ve got my PhD, my annual salary is over 500,000, I have a house and a car in Yan City, and I have several tens of millions in savings. All I ask for is someone with an equivalent educational level and income as me. Savings don’t have to match mine but at least someone capable of affording a down payment–that’s not too much to ask, right? If the person I choose lowers my living standard, why should I get married? To put it bluntly, not only would you be at risk of lacking funds for your medical treatment in the future, but why would I want to get married if it means I might have to support him?”

“It’s not important about my sickness.”

“Your sickness isn’t important, then what is? I won’t consider a husband who can’t even earn enough for your medical expenses.”

Lu’s mother was a bit frustrated herself, but she knew that her daughter was doing this for her sake. But her own disease, even with medical insurance, required a considerable sum for the targeted monthly medications; if hospitalization were needed, the costs would rise even more.

Before her divorce, she had always lived worry-free and never had to think about money. But now, the burden of living was all on her daughter’s shoulders, and she could not ignore it. She knew she was a burden, a constant substantial monthly expense.

“What you’re saying is basically telling me to have an assisted death.”

“Mom, you still don’t understand. I’m not going to find someone who is far beneath my conditions. I don’t have a penchant for charity.” Lu Weixi, seeing the visible heartache in her mother’s eyes, continued to persuade, “Look, once I get through these busy days, I’ll sign up for a premium course at a marriage agency, aiming to find someone of equal social standing. But feelings have to develop step by step, right? It’s of no use for you to be anxious. I can’t just marry some mediocre man in a hurry. Don’t worry, I promise I’ll get married again.”

“Eh, just put some effort into it,” Lu’s mother said after failing to persuade her, trying to imply her concerns indirectly.

Before leaving, Lu’s mother still had to say, “You must remember to go, alright?”

Lu Weixi nodded, “Mom, rest assured.”

Lu Weixi was all smiles when she spoke, but as soon as she returned to her room and closed the door, she almost completely collapsed.

On one side, her mother was pressuring her to marry; on the other, there was the trouble brewing inside her womb. She touched her belly, cursing Qin Zhiyou, that scumbag, and herself for not taking more precautions. And now, she had a life to deal with!

She took out her cell phone and hesitated for a long time before she finally brought up Qin Zhiyou’s number. She had never deleted his cell phone number or WeChat account, but she had blocked him.

After blocking him, she couldn’t see any of his messages or his WeChat Moments, and their conversations had vanished from the list too. However, given Qin Zhiyou’s personality, she suspected that after she had blocked him, he probably did the same.

She found Qin Zhiyou’s name in the blocked list, her fingertips gently caressing his profile picture. Maybe it was because of the child inside her, or maybe it was because when they parted, she did not harbor much hatred towards Qin Zhiyou, but rather regret and helplessness. As if possessed, she unblocked Qin Zhiyou as a contact.

By removing him from the blocked list, she suddenly realized that Qin Zhiyou had also quickly restored her as a contact. She could now open up his WeChat Moments, see his nickname and his status, and even their past conversations were restored to their original state.

He hadn’t blocked her, and she had always remained a contact of his.
