Having to Give Birth

Mrs. Gu's words immediately made Gu Dan Dan feel extremely embarrassed, her cheeks flushed, and her palms filled with sweat. She spoke woodenly, "Aunt..."

"In a few years, Gu Ao will be close to thirty. It's time for him to have a child. Dan Dan, don't you think so? Even if I'm not in a hurry, such a large family can't wait. I don't mean to pressure you, but if you really want to stay by his side for the rest of your life, your stomach must be (be, which means "be" here implies being "up to par" or "doing well," suggesting that she should be able to have a child). Forcing a child who hasn't reached adulthood to have children seems a bit cruel, but as the mistress of the Gu family, she had no choice.

If she couldn't get pregnant, would she have to leave Gu Ao? Her heart was heavy, and she couldn't catch her breath. Gu Dan Dan, with tears in her eyes, pleaded and stared at Mrs. Gu, her thin shoulders trembling involuntarily. It turned out that beautiful things were indeed fleeting... The more she was greedy for them, the more heartbroken she would be.

"Child, why are you crying? I didn't mean to drive you away. I just hope, and implore you, to have a child for Gu Ao, for me, and for the Gu family. If I pass away, I can also give an account to my ancestors." Mrs. Gu sighed. This child was really pitiful. To be able to stay by her son's side for so long, she must have her special qualities.

"Aunt, I understand. I... I'll have a child, I'll have one!"

"My child, I told you a long time ago that you should change the way you address me and not call me aunt anymore. You are the woman my son has taken a liking to, and I naturally consider you as half my daughter. Don't be afraid. Didn't women in ancient times also have children early? Or is it that... Gu Ao doesn't want children? Have you been contracepting recently?" Mrs. Gu, with her sharp eyes, noticed something and, holding Gu Dan Dan's hand, asked her to sit on the sofa.

"This... he..." How could she know about such detailed matters?

"There's no need to be shy. We are both women, and I won't tell these things to outsiders."

"Aunt, I'll have a child. I... I'll get pregnant as soon as possible." Gu Dan Dan foolishly promised Mrs. Gu.

To say she was naive, she indeed was!

...

"Gu... Gu Ao, can we... can we have a child?"

As soon as he got home, she eagerly ran to him, grabbed his arm, and pleaded with him pitifully. He had promised to give her a child, saying that when she truly grew up, he would give her one!

Gu Ao stroked Gu Dan Dan's furrowed brows. Why did she suddenly bring this up? He pulled her into his arms, his hand covering the top of her head, rubbing her black hair.

"Did my mother approach you?" This was the only reason he could think of.

"Yep, yep! I... I'm already fifteen, Gu Ao... Gu Ao, am... am I able to, able to now?" She held his back, hiding in his embrace. Such a plea was truly heart-wrenching.

With a determined heart, he really wanted to ravage her thoroughly, let her carry his child, and give birth to a child for him. In this way, this little woman would never be able to leave him for the rest of her life.

"Whether or not we have a child, you are still my person. I won't let you go, so don't even think about leaving me!"

"But..."

"You don't need to pay attention to what my mother says, understand?"

"I..."

Although Gu Ao said so, her heart still couldn't calm down. How could she enter the world of the wealthy and powerful? It was only natural to have a child for the Gu family. She could do without a title, but she couldn't do without Gu Ao.

Lying on the soft big bed, nestled in his arm, she was still pondering what Mrs. Gu had said, "Gu Ao..."

He forcefully sealed her delicate lips, sucking and swirling, fiercely deepening the kiss. His hand slipped into her clothing, playing with her increasingly full little breasts.

Gu Dan Dan closed her eyes, instinctively hooking her arm around his neck, her chest rising and falling heavily, "Is... is this... will this... will this result in a child?"

Gu Ao raised his head from her chest, his thin lips slightly curling, took out a condom, and quickly put it on, "No."

He saw her disappointment in his eyes. Why didn't she understand his heartache? No matter what he did, he would never hurt her, "Dan Dan, do you really want me to make you pregnant? Silly woman."

"You... how can you... be so bad? It's... it's not that, I... I'm not silly." She gave him a glance with a mix of coyness and resentment.

Even if she was sprayed to death by others' spittle, she wouldn't care at all, but if Gu Ao thought she was silly, she couldn't bear it. She knew he had many outstanding women, and if they were compared, she would definitely be left far behind. She feared nothing more than him disdaining her.

"Hmm? Isn't that so? Dan Dan, when will you be able to speak smoothly?" In the depths of his gaze, there was tenderness as well as teasing. Gu Ao's fingers rubbed her lips. He couldn't imagine that he would have so much patience with this little stutterer.

"I... I don't stutter, it's just... it's just when I'm with you, I... I..." Before she could finish her sentence, he thrust deeply into her, and the dryness caused her some pain.

Her innocent and resentful eyes were cast into Gu Ao's eyes. Others called her silly, scolded her as stupid, and thought her dull, but she wasn't a stutterer, not at all! It had been so long, yet when facing Gu Ao, she still couldn't help but be nervous, still habitually afraid, and her speech naturally couldn't keep up, nor could it be changed.

Gu Ao kissed her little mouth, holding the two soft mounds that made his heart ache, and began to gallop... He thought comically that even if she was a stutterer, she could only stutter in front of him! He felt that he was about to be driven crazy by her, day by day, becoming less and less like his original self...

...

On the fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month, the day of the Gu family's ancestral worship.

Gu Ao brought Gu Dan Dan back to the old house together. He rarely went back, and although he detested his mother, on such important days, he still had a sense of propriety.

Gu Ao was busy dealing with relatives and friends, while Gu Dan Dan followed closely behind him, not daring to leave half a step.

"If you're tired, go upstairs and rest." He squatted down and rubbed her slightly messy hair.

"Not tired, I'm not tired..." Gu Dan Dan waved her hand, but just following Gu Ao around had already exhausted her, and she hadn't expected the ancestral worship to be such a grand occasion.

"I'll be very busy today and won't have time to take care of you. Go find a room on the second floor to rest, be obedient." He pinched her rosy cheeks, and his words were a faint yet undeniable command.

"Okay."

She had only heard of such ancestral worship scenes, and it was too grand. Everywhere she looked inside the house and in the yard was filled with people. Burning incense, offering wine, kowtowing, none of these could be omitted... Gu Dan Dan watched blankly, and when she got tired of standing, she went to the second floor.

...

It was too unfortunate and too coincidental. As soon as Gu Dan Dan opened the door, she saw the face that made her uneasy... She immediately felt some panic.

"Daddy, I knew you'd come today. Haven't you thought of me all this time?" He Benyu strolled over to Gu Dan Dan's side. After so many months, she was still as innocent and silly as ever, making him unable to resist teasing her.

Seeing He Benyu, Gu Dan Dan turned around and left without saying a word, but he grabbed her back, almost lifting her in front of him, "Daddy, why are you running? Am I that scary?"

"Put me down, I want to go out!" She patted his shoulder, not knowing whether she was scared or angry, but in any case, her face turned red.

He Benyu carried her horizontally and threw her onto the bed, "My aunt wants you to have a child for the Gu family, doesn't she?"

"It's none of your business, let... let me up." He pressed her down with both hands, his evil face staring straight at her.

"After so long, why hasn't my uncle gotten tired of you yet? Daddy, you're not allowed to have a child for him! I said no." As he said "no," his gaze burned with intense fire, but it was unclear whether it was hatred or jealousy.

"Go away, don't touch me!" Seeing his lips about to approach, Gu Dan Dan kicked him fiercely with her legs.

"Where are you kicking?!" His face turned pale, and a certain part of him was already uncontrollably rampant.

"Gu Ao! Gu Ao..." Gu Dan Dan let out a loud shout.

"Ha ha... It's so noisy outside, can your little voice be heard? Daddy, since you're not an innocent little girl anymore, why not... let me have some fun too?" Indeed, he was determined to get this little girl. He wanted to see what expression Gu Ao would have if he touched her.

It was not a threat, nor a joke, but the real deal. He Benyu even pulled down his zipper. He grabbed her clothes, and she desperately (swatted away) his hands, pulling her clothes tight.

"Baby, don't avoid me. My bedroom skills are not inferior to Gu Ao's. You'll know once you try. Don't you think so?" His hand had already slipped into her blouse, and the small, round mound was trembling slightly. He boldly enjoyed it through her bra, "Tsk tsk... Daddy, these two little peaches of yours are really enchanting! Has my uncle tasted them many times? What... what's the taste? Baby, don't be afraid..."

Gu Dan Dan grabbed his arm, and without hesitation, bit down sharply with her teeth! His disgusting words and hands made her wish to die immediately!

He Benyu shook his hand in pain, his eyes filled with beastly intent, "Daddy! How dare you bite me?"

"Go... go away! Gu Ao... Gu Ao... Gu..." Gu Dan Dan shouted hoarsely, but to no avail, "Don't..."

The more painful she was, the more fiercely her tears fell, and his smile became more terrifying and demonic. He began to tear her clothes, determined to have this girl today!
