Deviant: No Longer Human

Chapter 321 - 321: One is enough for this World!

"She didn't tell you...?"

Aurora's voice carried a note of surprise as she sat closely next to Wang Xiao, her eyebrows knitting together in mild confusion.

Wang Xiao turned to her, curiosity etching his features. He questioned where she had vanished to and how she had managed to hasten her delivery.

Aurora explained that she had been in Xianthera and had instructed Luna to pass on this crucial information to him.

However, as Wang Xiao absorbed her words, his face remained neutral, betraying no sign of prior knowledge.

"I don't remember Luna mentioning anything about this," he confessed, his voice carrying a note of resignation mixed with indifference as he shrugged.

"..."

Aurora's face fell, a flicker of disappointment passing through her eyes as silence stretched between them.

Then, with a directness that caught Wang Xiao off guard, she pointed to her stomach and stated flatly, "Give me another one."

Wang Xiao, "..."

Aurora, "..."

Whoosh!

Moments later, Wang Xiao could be seen handing the baby back to Aurora, his movements deliberate.

As he did so, he resolved internally to ensure he wouldn't end up with more of these little creatures than he could manage—certainly no more daughters than the fingers on his hands could count.

Pftt...

Aurora suppressed a smile, amused by Wang Xiao's evident apprehension at the prospect of having another daughter.

"I thought you didn't care about having children," she murmured, cradling the baby back in her arms.

Wang Xiao raised an eyebrow, nodding. "I didn't, but managing too many would be challenging..." he trailed off, his gaze drifting suspiciously toward his curious new daughter. A slight smile then crossed his face. "...And they aren't that bad."

"Oh?" Aurora couldn't help but be slightly surprised to see him smile. "Already being protective...?" she probed, her curiosity piqued.

Wang Xiao fell silent for a moment, choosing not to deny her observation.

He stared off into the distance, thoughtful, before exhaling a warm breath. "One shouldn't have children if they don't know how to take care of them. Imagine being able to destroy a person's life, merely because you randomly felt life was lacking something. Instead of addressing that void within themselves, some decide to have children."

"Most people in the world just have children for the sake of having them. They want their children to be better than them while mimicking their own habits, which is contradictory."

"Failures are bound to raise failures."
