CHAPTER 538: CHAPTER 538: FAILING TO GET PREGNANT BY FORCE

"Marriage pressure, fertility pressure, what’s next?

Could it be pressure to have a second or third child?

Are we breeding pigs here?"

Lu’s mother furrowed her brows upon hearing her daughter’s words and then launched into a lecture,

"What are you saying? How much longer can you take it slow? How old are you now? Do you know that a woman’s prime years are just that few?

Having children earlier won’t put too much strain on your body, but if you wait until later, you’ll be an older mother, which poses risks to both you and the child!"

By the end of it, she was so agitated that she stood with one hand on her hip and the other waving in the air.

Lu Jing was speechless, never having imagined that she would face such a situation one day, even though she’d heard her colleagues discuss it before.

When it actually happened to her, it surely wasn’t easy.

"Mom!"

"Don’t ’Mom’ me. Tell me clearly, when exactly will you?"

Sigh...

Can this kind of thing even be forced?

And without giving any time to consider?

Under pressure from her own mother, Lu Jing could only look for help towards someone by her side.

However, Jiang Ye wasn’t daring to say a word at the moment, let alone take sides. He was completely adopting a "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil" stance.

He didn’t dare to offend his wife or his mother-in-law!

So, better not to speak rashly. Who knows if he might step on a landmine?

That would be very bad for him.

Lu Jing shot several pleading glances, but sadly, received no response from the man by her side, which left her wide-eyed in disbelief.

The next second, her arm was pinched twice by her mother:

"Where is your mind at? I’m asking you!"

The grip wasn’t strong; she still cared for her daughter after all.

Knowing there was no help to come, Lu Jing forced a smile and finally responded:

"Mom, having children isn’t something that I can just agree to and it happens, you know?"

Hmm???

Lu’s mother was taken aback:

"What do you mean by that?"

Why can’t it happen?

The two of you aren’t exactly youngsters, and you’ve already been married for quite a while, anytime should be possible, right?

Surely, there isn’t some health issue, is there?

That thought had barely crossed Lu’s mother’s mind before she shook her head, muttering silently to herself:

Impossible, impossible, how could that be? It definitely can’t be!

Seeing her mother in disbelief, Lu Jing eventually said:

"Mom, I might, currently have some problems with my health."

Sst!

"What problems?"

If not for trying hard to contain herself, Lu’s mother would have almost screamed.

Jiang Ye wanted to intervene, but as soon as he went to speak, Lu Jing cut him off:

"Shut up!"

Tsk, tsk.

With pressure coming from all sides, Lu Jing felt she couldn’t hold up any longer.

You should know, the two of them had never used contraception, but she just couldn’t get pregnant, what could be done about that?

The Doctor had been seen, the medicine had been taken, could she force a pregnancy?

Lu’s mother’s breathing hastened, and even Mr. Lu, who had been silent throughout, now watched with a grave expression.

Lu Jing pursed her lips:

"Mom, I just can’t get pregnant right now, no matter how much you pressure me, it’s useless."

It’s not that they didn’t want to have children; who wouldn’t want a child of their own blood?

But it’s one thing to have the desire and another to have the ability.

Lu’s mother looked deeply at her daughter then turned toward her son-in-law:

"Aye, you tell me, what exactly is going on?"

She just couldn’t understand, how could they not conceive?

Her daughter had always been healthy, going for medical check-ups twice a year, all the way up until she went abroad...
