Ying Xiaoya said it made sense for Cheng Yaozu to be depressed, because he always said he was better than Ning Ge—he had a wife and was about to welcome a little princess. But now, Ning Ge already had a son. Could he still boast that he's better?
So, when Cheng Yaozu heard this, he confirmed with Cheng Su three times in a row that he would indeed have a child later than Ning Ge, which left him quite dejected.
But soon after, he was happy to hear Ning Ge still didn't know yet, and with a mischievous smile, he said, "Even if Ning Ge knows, so what? Having a son, so what? Whether the son's mom will give the son to him, and whether she'll marry him, that's still uncertain, right? Speaking of which, I'm still better. Ah, it's such a pity I can't see his face when he finds out about his son. That would be something to see!"
Cheng Su looked at his animated antics and found it amusing. Look at this friend of his, delighting in someone else's misfortune, really deserves a good slap.
