489 The Confession 3 (2/2)

Starting a family… when this phrase entered his ear, Su Zhinian's hand, holding the glass of water, shook slightly.

There was only one woman who he wanted to start a family with, and that woman had just said that she loved him, but that was a message that he could never reply to.

Su Zhinian did not say anything, and his mother continued on her own. ”If you marry now and have a baby, I'm still young enough to help you babysit. I can't say for sure that it'll be the same two years down the line.”

Su Zhinian placed the glass on the coffee table and leaned back against the sofa.

His expression was peaceful like he was quietly listening to his mother's concern, but in his heart, a tendril of pain started to crawl its way out of his heart.

He could not even make himself not feel disgusted from any other woman's touch, so how could he start a family like that?

”When your Auntie Sun came before, she mentioned she had a relative's daughter that is two years younger than you. She just came from the US for her studies, do you want to find a date to meet her?”

The rest of what his mother said went in his left ear and out the right. Su Zhinian did not respond to anything she said.

Probably tired of talking to herself, Auntie Su eventually stopped.

After some period of silence, probably worried about her son's happiness, Auntie Su's lips started to move, but she only managed to get the words ”Ah Nian” out before Su Zhinian's phone started to ring.
