Chapter 78: Easy

“Brother Lin, this is a bit too much to ask, isn’t it? It’s not easy for normal people to get pregnant, let alone Li Jingcheng who is now in a vegetative state! Can you extend the time to next year?” Xiao Miaomiao asked in a negotiating tone.

“Really, just give me one more year, and I will definitely be pregnant before your birthday next year.” Xiao Miaomiao looked at him with anticipation, her eyes full of pleading.

She really couldn’t bear to leave the people in the Li family, nor could she bear to leave the chefs here. After all, she had gotten used to confiding in Li Jingcheng every day, using him as a sounding board, listening to her chatter. Once she left here, she would no longer be able to enjoy these things.

If she still couldn’t get pregnant next year, she would figure out a way then and beg her second cousin to agree to them.

Jiang Lin looked at her bargaining appearance and couldn’t help but say helplessly, “Do you think Li Jingcheng is an antique, something that appreciates in value? His condition will only get worse. The longer you wait, the less likely he is to wake up, and his bodily functions will be more severely damaged. If you can’t get pregnant now, you probably won’t have any hope in the future.”

“If you find it difficult, then just agree to my proposal and get a divorce.” Jiang Lin looked at her and said.

Jiang Lin looked at her with exasperation, his tone tinged with frustration, “With so many men out there, why do you have to cling to Li Jingcheng who can’t give you a response?”

“Besides, he’s just a vegetable now. You know, what you’re doing with him is just having sex. Don’t you feel awkward? He’s been lying in bed for half a year now, his body is probably weak and just skin and bones. You actually find someone like that attractive?” Jiang Lin was so angry he almost jumped up. Seeing her still so insistent, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of loss and disappointment.

“No, Li Jingcheng’s figure and appearance are both excellent. Even though he’s been in a coma for so long, his body has still been taken care of very well.” Xiao Miaomiao whispered in defense of Li Jingcheng.

“I can take you to see him. His appearance and figure are really still very good.” Xiao Miaomiao said, while tightly holding Jiang Lin’s hand, wanting to take him upstairs to see Li Jingcheng.

Seeing her so persistent and eager to prove something, Jiang Lin could only sigh helplessly and let her pull him upstairs to see Li Jingcheng. They arrived at the door of Li Jingcheng’s room, and Xiao Miaomiao gently pushed open the door, leading Jiang Lin inside.

After entering the room with Xiao Miaomiao, Jiang Lin immediately saw Li Jingcheng lying on the bed. His gaze lingered on Li Jingcheng for a moment, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

As Miaomiao said, Li Jingcheng, who had been in a coma for half a year, didn’t seem much different from before.

Li Jingcheng’s face was still handsome, his expression calm, as if he was just caught in a deep sleep. The caregivers who took care of him were obviously very dedicated and took good care of him.

Jiang Lin walked closer to the bed and carefully observed Li Jingcheng’s condition. He reached out and gently pressed on Li Jingcheng’s abdominal muscles.

To his surprise, Li Jingcheng’s abdomen didn’t feel loose and weak as he had imagined due to prolonged bed rest. On the contrary, he felt that Li Jingcheng’s abdominal muscles were firm and strong, even with some elasticity.

This feeling made Jiang Lin feel a little surprised.

“This body looks alright.” Jiang Lin looked Li Jingcheng up and down, then turned to Xiao Miaomiao and said.

There was a hint of doubt in his tone, but more affirmation. Li Jingcheng’s physical condition was indeed beyond his expectations, even being in a coma was unusual.

Xiao Miaomiao looked nervously at Jiang Lin, her hands clasped tightly together, her heart filled with anxiety, “Brother Lin, what do you think? Are you satisfied now? I told you his body really doesn’t have any problems. Getting pregnant is just a matter of time, I’m sure I can have a cute baby with him.”

Li Jingcheng, hearing the voice of a strange man and the words he said, was a little nervous. This little girl was really bold, finding a strange man?

“Didn’t you say you wanted to be a non-marriage person? If there is such a day, I will have him take care of you in your old age. Brother Lin, just promise me, okay? My eldest cousin agrees, and my grandfather, uncles, and aunt, they all agree to my marriage to Li Jingcheng.” Xiao Miaomiao hurriedly explained.

Jiang Lin frowned, seemingly not satisfied with this answer.

“Please? Please? Just give me a year, I will definitely get pregnant as soon as possible. Don’t ask me to get a divorce, okay? You know, you are the most important person to me, I really don’t want to go against your wishes.” Xiao Miaomiao looked at him with a pleading expression.

Looking at Xiao Miaomiao’s pitiful appearance, Jiang Lin couldn’t help but soften his heart.

But even so, Jiang Lin didn’t give in. “No, we’re going to get divorced anyway, so it’s better to leave sooner rather than later.”

Li Jingcheng, hearing Xiao Miaomiao’s words, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but then he was nervous again. It wasn’t a strange man, it was his second brother-in-law, but this second brother-in-law was clearly more difficult to deal with than Jiang Chen, his elder brother-in-law. He actually wanted Xiao Miaomiao to divorce him.

From the dowry Jiang family prepared for Xiao Miaomiao, it could be seen that it was no exaggeration to say that she was given half of the Jiang family.

“Brother Lin, I, I like him, I just like his face, just let me be with him.” Xiao Miaomiao said, hugging Li Jingcheng, refusing to get a divorce no matter what.

“I can find you someone with a similar appearance.” Jiang Lin remained unmoved.

“No matter how similar the appearance is, it’s not him. I just like vegetable people, okay.” Xiao Miaomiao said helplessly.

Ouyang Xuan, hearing that Jiang Lin had come and was still trying to persuade Miaomiao to get a divorce, was a little worried, so she came up to check and call them down for dinner.

As soon as she reached the door, she heard Miaomiao say she liked vegetable people. Ouyang Xuan was stunned for a moment. Was Miaomiao saying this because Jiang Lin was forcing her?

Jiang Lin was also dumbfounded. What could he say? His sister had a heavy taste?

“You don’t have to say it like that.” Jiang Lin looked at Xiao Miaomiao, also speechless.

“Next month is my birthday. If I’m not pregnant, we’ll get a divorce. If you’re still not pregnant next time, you’ll have one more chance. You decide.” Jiang Lin didn’t dare to talk about this topic anymore.

“Xiao Zhao came to our house today. He accidentally found out about what father did back then, and about what he has been doing to you all these years. He should be quite regretful. I went back and saw him kneeling on the ground.”

“But his sincerity was lacking. I scattered some thumbtacks on the ground, but he didn’t kneel down.” Jiang Lin said in a disappointed tone. In his opinion, what’s wrong with kneeling on thumbtacks? Even if he knelt until his legs were broken, it wouldn’t be worth forgiving.

Xiao Miaomiao widened her eyes. Making Xiao Zhao kneel on thumbtacks, what a brilliant idea.
