Reborn as a female internet celebrity in a county town

Chapter 399 How can I have a child?
"Cousin, I was just trying to make you jealous. She never actually invited me to her house..."

"Also, I made it all up. They never even contacted me. You know my account is being throttled, so nobody can see it."

"I was just unhappy, so I made up a story to annoy you. Don't be unhappy."

"Actually, I'm just not as good as you. I'm not as pretty, and I don't know as much as you. Why would anyone like someone like me..."

"Actually, I had already come clean with Lin Lang a long time ago. I didn't send him a single message when he came back this time, and he didn't contact me either."

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."

Shen An'an's intuition told her that Yan Li had really run into trouble this time.

From calling myself the day before yesterday, displaying unprecedented emotional fluctuations, to completely giving in today.

However, even after she said that, she did not receive a reply from Yan Li.

At this moment, Yan Li was sitting on the sofa with her phone lying aside, ignoring it.

Whatever Shen An'an said doesn't matter much at this point.

Moreover, Shen An'an does not have the ability to fabricate lies from beginning to end; she must have been able to fabricate them based on certain facts.

In other words, Xu Xiuyun is indeed making two or even three contingency plans.

Regret?
Of course I regret it! If I didn't regret it, I wouldn't have told Lin Lang before he left that I could have a child in two months.

She couldn't explain it either. Could she explain to Ms. Xu that she had never intended to have a child and had taken birth control pills on purpose?

That would only widen the gap between them.

At least for now, there are no apparent barriers, and everything is fine.

Once you say it out loud, it's like getting a needle stuck in your throat; any future problems will be attributed to this incident.

She didn't dare.

She never imagined that after a lifetime of being cautious and careful, trying her best to avoid being criticized, she would be ruined by a trivial decision.

If she and Lin Lang are absolutely equal, then this matter will have no impact on her.

But now, she is no longer on equal footing with Lin Lang.

She herself should have made some efforts to maintain the relationship between the two parties.

This effort was not only to maintain a good relationship with Lin Lang, but also with Lin Lang's family.

Although I've been video chatting and talking to Lin Lang's mother these past two days, and trying to find out what they need, it hasn't provided much emotional value.

Even if Yan Li says that he will listen to Lin Lang and Tianjin Capital will move forward according to Lin Lang's wishes, who will believe him except for the parties involved?

She is the largest shareholder, and she can change her mind about what she has promised, since there are far too many interests involved.

Lin Lang rose too quickly, so quickly that she couldn't keep up and made frequent mistakes.

In just four months, Lin Lang brought Tianjin Capital to an absurd level.

It takes six months for a single birth control pill to completely eliminate any remaining medication.

Essentially, she was anxious. Knowing that Lin Lang's family wanted him to get married, she was worried about unexpected events, so she sent her parents over before the new year.

This signal completely exhausted all the buffer between him and Xu Xiuyun, and he then created an obstacle for himself that lasted for more than six months.

If her parents hadn't passed away, Xu Xiuyun's patience wouldn't have been completely worn down, and she wouldn't have developed a sense of crisis.

There's nothing she can do now.

I can't tell Lin Lang about this, and I certainly can't give Xu Xiuyun the promise she made a few months later.

What if I don't get pregnant after a few months?

Then it's all over.

In the current situation, as long as it's not Shen An'an, she's not too worried, because others aren't in much better shape either.

Only Shen An'an is abnormal.

Others who are with Lin Lang will have some degree of self-interest, but Shen An'an is the only one who doesn't.

People with ambition and those without ambition are completely different; no matter how well they pretend, it's always obvious.

She wasn't afraid of those with ulterior motives; what she feared was that after meeting Shen An'an, Xu Xiuyun, who had initially only had an idea, would become eager to put it into practice.

She didn't need to consider what Lin Lang thought. She couldn't possibly ask Lin Lang to stand up against his mother, as that would be putting pressure on him out of thin air. Besides making Lin Lang uncomfortable, it would also deepen Xu Xiuyun's anxiety.

When facing Shen An'an, she really couldn't do anything.

……

"Brother, Tianjin Capital will invest 2 billion yuan in the new company. You don't need to contribute any money. You can use your current used car team as investment, taking 10% of the equity. What do you think?"

Lin Lang and He Qiang were chatting.

He Qiang's reaction upon hearing that Tianjin Capital was going to invest, and in a significant amount of 2 billion yuan, was indescribable.

This is precisely why Lin Lang had him set up the car service business.

This is a project that Lin Lang is optimistic about, so there is no doubt that there will be no problems and that the prospects are bright.

"I will definitely agree to your arrangement unconditionally, but what should I do next?"

"Based on the existing foundation, we can continue to expand the service centers. For now, we can continue to use the Xincheng Used Car brand and change it after the new business is integrated."

"No problem! How many stores do you plan to expand to?"

"Let's expand to one hundred companies within two years. Of the two billion from Tianjin Capital, less than one billion will be left for the company's development. The other part will be lent to a car company in the form of loans to acquire that company's car service business."

"Do we only work with that one brand?"

"That brand has given us exclusive authorization, so we can work with other brands at any time."

"understand."

Based on this information, He Qiang basically understood.

If you only focus on one brand, then the potential of that brand will be limited.

Now that we know Lin Lang isn't just running one brand, but is directly competing with car service providers like Zhong Sheng, the potential is incredibly high.

"We'll have Mr. Fu come over to sign the specific contract in a while; it won't be too much trouble."

"no problem!"

He Qiang agreed with a smile.

Being able to personally participate in the planning of a large enterprise by Lin Lang was very important to him.

After drinking a few cups of tea, He Qiang asked again, "Brother, how many days are you planning to stay at home this time? I'd like to find some time to pay you a visit."

"I'm not sure, I might leave in a couple of days. If you want to go have a drink with my dad, you can come anytime."

"Okay, okay."

With Lin Lang's reply, He Qiang felt much more at ease.

He's really saved up a lot of good stuff lately, and he's planning to give it to Lin Lang.

Lin Lang's lack of objection meant that he could deliver it.

Many people wanted to give Lin Lang gifts, but even if someone secretly delivered them to Lin Lang's house, they would be refused; Lin Lang's parents simply wouldn't accept them.

Therefore, He Qiang was quite hesitant during this period. After all, Lin Yuliang had now become a cultural and tourism ambassador. Although he was not part of the system, he represented the official image to some extent. He felt that Lin Yuliang might be worried about gossip and would not accept the gifts anymore.

In that case, he would not only have to bring back a bunch of things he brought over, but he might even cause trouble for Lin Yuliang.

Now that Lin Lang has spoken, it means that Lin Lang simply doesn't accept gifts from others, but he will definitely accept gifts if he wants to send something to someone.

As for whether he will be involved in bribery or anything like that, there's no need to say anything; he'll handle those things himself.

Brother Lin Lang only accepted my gift because he trusts me; he doesn't trust others...

The company I partnered with Lin Lang on wouldn't involve bribery, since everyone's interests were aligned, and profits would be distributed according to share, nothing more.

The only thing suspected of being a bribe was the investment from Tianjin Capital, since Lin Lang did indeed let him buy it and even mentioned that Tianjin Capital would go public in the future.

Regarding funds, as long as he doesn't engage in high-frequency trading or allow Tianjin Capital to open a special buying channel for him, there won't be any problems.

As for the future listing of Tianjin Capital and his purchase of their shares, as long as he holds onto the shares, it shouldn't be a big problem.

Unless he contacts Lin Lang every time to ask when there will be any good news, obtains inside information about Tianjin Capital in advance, uses that information to manipulate the stock price, and then buys low and sells high to make a profit.

Obviously, Lin Lang wouldn't tell him either.

Brother Lin Lang trusts me so much, how could I be so ungrateful?
We will absolutely not allow anything to go wrong.

Just as the three were having dinner, Lin Lang received a message. He glanced at his phone and immediately said to He Qiang, "Brother, Teacher Yun gave birth. Shall we go to the hospital together later?"

"She gave birth? I just happened to have prepared a gift for her. Wait here for a bit, little brother, I'll go back and come right away."

"Row."

He Qiang left quickly, and Lin Lang looked at Fu Xueqing and asked, "What kind of gift should I prepare?"

"Is it too late to prepare now? There's nothing suitable in the county. Should I go buy some fruit? We can make up for the other gifts when the baby is 100 days old?"

"also."

Lin Lang is not good at giving gifts.

Receiving gifts from He Qiang is essentially an extension of power and prestige; the more powerful He Qiang is, the more enjoyable it is to receive gifts.

And others...

Neither of them are reliable.

At least in his mind, there was a risk.

Besides, I haven't really helped them get to a high position, so receiving their gifts doesn't feel very satisfying.

Lin Lang replied to Qin Haiyang with a message, and Qin Haiyang sent over a photo. It showed two very small newborn babies with rosy skin.

It doesn't actually look good; the skin hasn't even relaxed yet.

But when Lin Lang saw the child, his heart was still filled with emotion.

In his past life, he was always in a weaker position when his parents chatted with relatives and friends because he never got married.

He didn't feel anything when he was in his twenties, after all, he was busy with his own work.

It wasn't until I was in my thirties that I realized my life was indeed empty. It had been a long time since anyone could provide me with emotional support, and it felt like I was living a meaningless life.

I don't have a fortune to inherit, but having a child seems to be something to be happy about in itself?
He still has the mindset of someone in their thirties, not that of a twenty-three-year-old teenager, and his feelings remain unchanged.

It's easy to imagine that he has such thoughts when he's only in his thirties. What will he be like when he's in his forties, fifties, or even sixties?
He will definitely understand his parents in the future and become a parent himself.

Fu Xueqing noticed that Lin Lang was looking at his phone, so she went over and found that he was looking at pictures of children.

So he asked, "What's wrong? Is it your child?"

Lin Lang: "...Actually, if nothing unexpected happens, my child will indeed be coming in a few months."

"There was an accident?"

"Yes, so it will be postponed. It's hard to say exactly when it will be postponed."

"You like children very much?"

"I don't know. I've never owned it, so who can be sure?"

Fu Xueqing thought for a moment and said softly, "If Yan Li can't help, I'll give you one in two years."

Lin Lang looked at Fu Xueqing, who appeared indifferent and said, "What are you looking at? I'm a top-tier rich woman worth billions now, and I wouldn't dare to marry anyone. What if they're just after my money? What if they find a chance to cut me into pieces and freeze me in the refrigerator? So... I probably won't get married. If someone else is going to have your baby, then don't bother with me, lest you have no one to take care of the baby."

"You really don't want to get married? Maybe you'd be happier starting a family?"

"Having too much money makes you unhappy. Everything becomes tied to money. You can see that from my family. We've had money since we were little. My parents' generation spent money on all sorts of things. Once they ran out of money, their personalities changed drastically. Anyway, you have a lot of lovers, so Yanli probably won't mind. If you really need a boyfriend in the future, you can fill in for a while."

"How long is a period of time?"

"Two or three days isn't too much to ask, is it?"

"That's too much. Who can last two or three days? Half an hour is the limit."

Fu Xueqing: "???"

In less than twenty minutes, He Qiang returned.

Carrying several gifts, he walked over and handed one to Lin Lang, saying, "Brother, this one is for you."

Then, he handed another copy to Fu Xueqing, saying, "President Fu, this is yours."

Lin Lang took it, glanced at it, and said, "Thank you for your help, brother. I didn't know what to buy at the time. I'll help you pay for it when Teacher Yun's two children have their 100-day celebrations."

"Two children? Oh dear, I only have single doses here..."

He Qiang only paid moderate attention to Yun Yiyi and didn't bother to find out if she was pregnant with twins. So, he just prepared a gift in advance based on his usual thinking.

Originally, there were two gifts. He was worried that Lin Lang wouldn't know, so he planned to send one for Lin Lang. But now there's Fu Xueqing. And Fu Xueqing's gift was something he specially put together, and it wasn't the same type as his or Lin Lang's.

"Same here, no problem at all. Let's go now, Teacher Yun just woke up."

"Okay, I'll just have to make it up next time..."

……

No matter where Shen An'an is, she is being watched. Even at midnight, there will be someone on the sofa in the living room. Her only hope is that Bing Ning will come and take her out tomorrow.

Thinking that Lin Lang should be almost done with his work, I sent him a message.

"Are you home yet? How about I treat you to dinner tomorrow?"

The last time I messaged Lin Lang was two weeks ago. We didn't chat much; I mainly just asked about his health and whether he was tired.

About ten minutes later, Lin Lang replied, "I replied. Are you free tomorrow? I need to collect interest, you know."

"Okay, okay, don't overwork yourself. If the work at home isn't important, then take a few days to rest."

"I'm unemployed, so I've come to the hospital."

"Oh? Are you not feeling well? Have you been working too hard lately? Do you need me to come and help you?"

"No need, no need. A friend of mine is having a baby and I came to the hospital to visit. I'm fine."

Then, Lin Lang sent over a photo of the child and said, "Isn't the child adorable?"

Looking at the child's photo, Shen An'an could tell from Lin Lang's words that he really liked the child.

Do you particularly like children?

"If you had asked me this question before, I wouldn't have been able to answer it, but just now I have the answer in my heart: I like it. I feel like I'm tainted with money right now, thinking about how to make money and how to work every day. My brain has never had a proper rest, as if I've become a money-making machine. Just now, I reached out and hugged my child, and in an instant, my restless heart calmed down, as if my entire soul had been purified. But I'm still young, there's no rush for these things."

Shen An'an watched Lin Lang earnestly explain his current change in mindset and knew it was true.

Normally, Lin Lang would only say a few words, he would never send so many at once, and he would never be so serious.

It seems that her cousin's decision not to have children really hurt Lin Lang and his family.

Meanwhile, after chatting with Shen An'an for a few minutes, Lin Lang returned to the delivery room and saw He Qiang chatting with Qin Dong, while Qin Haiyang was by Yun Yiyi's bedside with two children beside her.

He joined in as well.

He wasn't lying to Shen An'an; he genuinely felt much calmer after seeing the child.

Before, all he thought about every day was how to make money, what would happen next, and how to take advantage of it.

He had to mentally process every single thing, including all the details.

For example, the upcoming operation of the Wenjie brand, even though it will take at least another year or two to get it up and running, he is already preparing for what needs to be done.

Various character designs and scripts, various service standards.

There are also various issues with Tianjin Capital, its operations regarding new energy vehicles, and subsequent actions...

After all, it's impossible to boost the entire sector by relying on Tianjin Capital. Even if the new energy vehicle market is booming, large funds are unwilling to enter, making it very difficult to enjoy high premiums overall.

Therefore, they must be brought back.

The game theory involved here is very complex and needs to be refined step by step.

The more I think about these things all day, the more agitated I become, and the more I need an outlet for my emotions.

So after he came back, he vented his frustrations on Bingning several times. When he vented, his mind was blank, and he could sleep soundly without thinking about anything.

Right now, I feel like I'm participating in a soul-purifying ritual. The pure soul of a child is interacting with me, making me feel incredibly relaxed.

Yun, who was standing nearby, asked, "If you like children so much, why don't you have a few?"

"We're still preparing. We can't be as fast as you guys."

Lin Lang said something without even looking up.

Yun Yiyi: "If you want one, hurry up! If not, I'll introduce you to someone."

"No rush, no rush. Let's talk about it in six months. If we still don't have one in six months, then we'll let you introduce someone."

For Lin Lang, six months was not his limit, but rather the limit for Ms. Xu.

If there's still no movement from Yan Li after six months, she'll probably lose patience and feel that Yan Li is deceiving their family.

Who knows, he might start secretly looking for a girlfriend suitable for marriage at that time.

"Sure, let me know when the time comes. By the way, the two kids don't have names yet, why don't you help us come up with one? After all, none of our family members are as educated as you."

"I'm a science major, what kind of name would I come up with? Besides, how could I dare to interfere in your family's affairs? This is the ocean's right."

Qin Haiyang, who was standing to the side, said, "Brother Lang, you can come up with a name too. I'm not very good at it."

"There's nothing you can't do. If you really can't, just look it up in a dictionary... In short, just avoid names that are too internet-savvy. What if your child becomes successful in the future and their name isn't presentable?"

Lin Lang could hardly imagine what it would feel like forty or fifty years from now for a bunch of old men and women named Zixuan and Zixuan to be called by their names.

However... it's possible that it wasn't popular back then, just like how people nowadays react when they hear names like Guilan or Xiuzhen.

Who knows what will be more diverse and popular back then? It's normal that Zixuan and the like are out of touch with the times.

"Then you should hurry up and have two kids too, and then we can arrange a marriage between them," Yun Yiyi added.

"That depends on when they come, and also on what your two kids are like. If my child comes late, the age gap will be too big. Who knows how many girlfriends your child will have by then, while my daughter will have just graduated from high school. That would be too much of a disadvantage. Also, they can't go astray. I don't want someone who goes astray as my son-in-law or daughter-in-law..."

"Then how about I let you raise it?"

"Dream on! If I raise a child, you won't have to work anymore, right? I want to retire as soon as possible; another child is just another burden. I wish the child were a little older; I really want to pinch their little cheeks..."

Lin Lang was talking to himself.

The child was too young, so I didn't dare to do it.

……

How can I have a baby?

Baidu.

1. Regular intercourse, especially during a woman's ovulation period, can help increase the chances of conception. For women with regular menstrual cycles, ovulation usually occurs about 14 days before the next menstrual period, with the optimal time for conception being 1-2 days before and after ovulation. After intercourse, women should lie down and rest, avoiding getting up immediately…

2. Monitor ovulation. Ovulation time can be accurately determined through basal body temperature measurement, ovulation test strips, or ultrasound monitoring. Basal body temperature rises after ovulation; continuous monitoring can reveal a pattern. Ovulation test strips detect…

3. Adjust your lifestyle...

Shen An'an looked at the search results on her phone and began to understand them word by word.

Then, based on my understanding, I began to filter the criteria.
