But what was happening before his eyes was beyond his expectations.
Fortunately, the topic finally came to adoption, and Zhu Zi decided to seize every opportunity.
He couldn't believe that Mrs. Hong wasn't afraid of having no one to take care of her in old age, didn't want a son, wasn't worried about having no one to offer incense after death...
