Chapter 730
Tang Zhou strode in excitedly: “Little Xingguang, you sure work fast! Look at that, I’m about to have a great niece in no time!”
Ye Junqing cut him short: “Shut up, it’s going to be a great nephew!”
“Why can’t it be a great niece? I find that much more exciting.”
A beautiful grand-niece mermaid at that, Tang Zhou thought, feeling quite thrilled by the idea.noveldrama
“If you utter another word, I’ll send you to the ends of the earth.” Ye Junqing only wanted a son, a future partner in doting on his wife. He would not allow a daughter to share his love, fearing that he wouldn’t be able to resist his own daughter’s charm, so he simply decided against one.
Not knowing whether she would have a boy or a girl, Ye Xingguang gave Ye Junqing a look full of disdain.
This man’s deeply rooted male chauvinism was unbearable!
“Congratulations.” Leng Chenmo seated himself, handing Ye Xingguang a small gift. His voice filled with envy toward Ye Junqing.
“Thanks, brother.”
Ye Xingguang opened the present to find a set of silver jewelry for a child — little bracelets for the hands and feet, along with a necklace. Each piece was adorned with small bells that jingled merrily. It was too adorable, melting her heart.
But there was even more to come. Bai Peiluan had called the National Child Care Center, and after hanging up, she had a look of anticipation on her face.
“Everyone, quiet please. I have some news,” she announced.
As Song Chuanqi and Ye Baixiu were debating about the child’s name, they perked up their ears, waiting to hear what Bai Peiluan had to say.
Bai Peiluan explained: “The incubation egg is transparent so once we place our little darling inside, we can monitor its condition every day. The National Child Care Center also has an app. Open it up and we can track our baby’s daily growth online.”
Bai Lanwu took out her phone: “How do I download the National Child Care Center’s app? I want to watch our baby grow every day.”
During her own pregnancies, she couldn’t see her children grow from embryos into babies in her belly. But now, she could observe the progress every single day.
“Sis, let me finish.” Bai Peiluan adopted a professional tone: “If we don’t want to leave the incubation egg at the National Child Care Center, we can apply to bring it home. As long as we can afford it, expert doctors will come to our house every day to check on the baby.”
Bai Lanwu: “Then we’ll apply to bring the incubation egg home. That way, we won’t have to visit the Child Care Center every day.”
Bai Peiluan: “Yes, that’s what I figured too. Junqing, you need to go apply tomorrow. Our precious little one can’t stay at the Child Care Center. We have plenty of elders here at home to look after the baby, don’t we?”
Ye Junqing was about to post in his friend circle. When he heard her words, he simply uttered a “Hmm”, then listened to Bai Peiluan continue: “Also, take your daughter-in-law tomorrow to have the little darling in her belly transferred to the incubation egg. I just asked, and the doctors at the Child Care Center suggested that the embryo should be transferred before it’s 14 days old. Before the 14th day, the embryo doesn’t have the differentiated nervous system results or a distinct human characteristic, so it doesn’t involve ethical issues. Otherwise, although it would not violate our country’s laws, it would infringe on international controls on embryonic ethics. Then, foreign journalists would blame our country’s Child Care Center for not complying with international treaties.”
