Chiang Qing had been feeling uneasy these days. Shen Rong, being keenly observant and sharing a bed with her, naturally noticed. When he asked her, she mingled truth with falsehood, saying she feared she might not be able to bear children. Without children, they wouldn't seem like a real family.
The old issue came up again, but precisely because of this, Shen Rong didn't suspect anything. After all, he felt guilty in the first place, and the second wife was already pregnant. So Chiang Qing having some gloomy thoughts wasn't surprising.
"How about this? Now that it's cold, I could accompany you abroad for a change of scenery?" Shen Rong suggested.
There was no way Chiang Qing would agree. She shook her head and said, "I don't want to move. I just want to stay quiet." She couldn't break this stalemate, so she wouldn't go anywhere.
