Chapter 686 - 209: Lu Sisi Can Only Be Lu Sisi
Chen Yan spoke in a gentle tone, but when he reached this point, his tone suddenly changed, and he said solemnly, "Don’t be curious! This matter is not something you can investigate with your current cultivation! Remember! Remember!"
Chu Keqing heard the seriousness and solemnity in Chen Yan’s voice. Her heart trembled, and she quickly dispelled the few hidden thoughts she had, saying earnestly, "Keqing will heed the elder’s words."
Chen Yan sighed with a look in his eyes that carried a complexity Chu Keqing could not understand. He leaned back in his chair, with a hint of weariness in his tone: "... Let’s go, I’ll trouble you to take me home."

On the way, Chu Keqing drove, while Chen Yan remained silent, the car so quiet that the wind outside could be heard.
Chen Yan lowered his eyes slightly, repeatedly pondering the clues he had sorted out in his mind.
Going to see the dead fetus was merely to verify a suspicion in his heart!
This suspicion arose after he met Lu Sisi’s brother, that little Yang Family boy.
And a glance at the dead fetus confirmed his suspicion.
That kind of perfectly orderly life chart was indeed an anomaly.
One occurrence could barely be called a coincidence.
Two... definitely not a coincidence!

Lu Xiuting cannot have more children! If she does, she will die!
Contrary to many people’s misconceptions, what affects a person’s lifespan is not only ’longevity luck.’
In fact, many types of luck influence each other.
If a certain type of luck is completely descended to zero, it will also affect lifespan.
For example, financial luck.
Some might argue... there are very poor people who live a long life.
Because, they are only ’very poor,’ not absolutely ’zero’ in financial luck!
Imagine if someone’s financial luck was completely zeroed out! No income at all...
Could they survive?
The problem with Lu Xiuting is... her own luck, in each aspect, varies—some good, some bad, some long, some short.
But... if she had more children, it would uniformly take a portion from every aspect of her luck!
If you have a 60 across the board in all subjects, and I deduct 20 points from each,
No problem. You still have points in each, won’t zero out.
But if...
Your language is 80, math is 8.
I deduct 20 points from each.
Your language becomes 60...
Math goes to zero!

The issue with Lu Xiuting is that this miscarriage seems unlucky for her, but in fact, it was her good fortune, saving her life!!
Because if she has another child, should it be like that ordinary, mediocre Yang Family boy with uniform scores,
It would cut into the luck from Lu Xiuting’s life chart!
If even one aspect of her luck was not 60...
She would most likely die!
·
As for why the children Lu Xiuting gives birth to take away her luck and life chart?
Normally, when people bear offspring, that’s not the case! It doesn’t deduct the mother’s luck.
Otherwise, wouldn’t that be a joke?
If a mother was supposed to live until 80, and after having a child, her life was halved?
There’s no such thing!
But Lu Xiuting’s case is remarkably special.
The children she gives birth to, for unknown reasons... deduct from Lu Xiuting’s luck!
Now her luck is very weak!
The first child Lu Xiuting bore was Lu Sisi!
Lu Sisi is a supreme life chart, with perfect scores in all aspects of luck.
However, Lu Sisi’s birth did not take away Lu Xiuting’s fortune — Lu Xiuting didn’t have enough to deduct.
It seems Lu Sisi naturally had a good life chart, with luck given by the Heavenly Dao.
But... after Lu Sisi, the Yang Family’s second son, his life chart mode was like Lu Sisi’s, even and average in every aspect.
But the fortune and life chart were deducted from Lu Xiuting!
The third child who died young, that stillborn, was the same!
If the third child had continued to grow and reach maturity, Lu Xiuting would surely die because her remaining luck wasn’t enough to deduct from.
Even if longevity luck wasn’t entirely deducted, any other aspect fully deducted would doom Lu Xiuting.
Why, when ordinary people have children, they don’t deduct maternal luck, while Lu Xiuting does?
Because...
Lu Xiuting was never supposed to have the Yang Family’s second or third child!!
She was able to marry Yang Jiaming by defying fate, borrowing luck!
Stealing it by changing the heavens!
In her fate, if not for that suppressed ’existence,’ how could Lu Xiuting marry Yang Jiaming, have children with him?
Since you weren’t destined to have them, yet forced them...
Don’t blame heaven for settling the score.
Heaven would say: Damn it! I didn’t allow you to give birth! You had one, and you want me to give the child luck?
Sorry, that person isn’t in the records, I won’t issue!
If heaven won’t give, then it must be you as the mother — because it was stolen when Lu Xiuting defied fate!
·
When Chen Yan thought of this, whether in logic or in reasoning, he had calculated to the final point.
Why, then, when Lu Sisi was born, was her fortune and luck not deducted from Lu Xiuting?
But was nearly perfect in every aspect?
Where did it come from?
So...
That voice from within the jade?
That... existence suppressed in the ancient tomb?
This issue, analyzed to the end, was unavoidable, inescapable!
It seems to point to only one answer.
·
When Chen Yan returned home, his expression was very fatigued, carrying an indescribable gloom.
It was a kind of helpless, inevitable exhaustion.
He walked into his home’s yard, not looking at Big White soaking in the sun, nor at Gui Geng hiding in the swimming pool.
