Bai Changyou wasn't this ruthless for the first time; he was the same towards Lu Weixi earlier. Blood ties and family affection are highly valued by most people, but for him, work and his own reputation always came first, even above his children.
Sure enough, Cai's mother was shocked, and after a while she responded: "But Lu Weixi… she's already changed her surname, and she's not a boy, so why do you..."
"If I wanted, I could marry another wife and have another child. If I wanted, I could... could..." Bai Changyou didn't finish his sentence.
But what he actually blurted out was that he could recognize Lu Weixi again.
The advantage of men over women is that if they desire, they can have offspring even in their seventies or eighties. Of course, he could have another child, but would he have the opportunity to raise them? Would his new wife always be content to help him raise the children and take care of him in his old age?
