"Don't say anything. You're conscience will suffer condemnation! Just stop as quickly as you can! Repent, repent and be saved, it's not too late! We're still friends!"

After being stunned senseless, his eyes and brows were practically overflowing with joy. In all the years I've known him, even up to this very day, it was the most outwardly joyous expression I'd ever seen on him. Usually, at the very most, he'd curl his lips in a smile, one which was gentle as much as it was polite. But right now, after he carefully released me, he looked me up and down a few times, his eyes lingering on my stomach a few times more, a complex range of emotions housed within them. Disbelief, astonishment, surprise, happiness, excitement... all these emotions, in addition to a few more, which made me unable to help myself from letting out a laugh.

"Don't say anything. You're conscience will suffer condemnation! Just stop as quickly as you can! Repent, repent and be saved, it's not too late! We're still friends!"

Li You then ran over to me to take a look,saying: "That's great! I'm going to be a Big SisT/n: the big sis here is a term used by female gang leaders.!"

Can there be anything more interesting too see than a person who's usually reserved suddenly light up in pure happiness?

Li You then ran over to me to take a look,saying: "That's great! I'm going to be a Big SisT/n: the big sis here is a term used by female gang leaders.!"

He then added: "It's my domain, and my call."

Especially when that joy had something to do with me.

He then added: "It's my domain, and my call."

By the time I finish this project, it'd probably be around four months. So even if I wanted to continue working, it wouldn't be possible with my stomach being all huge, it'll make people talk.

Seeing him constantly stare at my stomach, feeling a bit uncomfortable, I sneakily pulled the blanket to cover it then as I said: "So... there's no need for us to go to the doctor's since I already went to get my results today and Dr. Chen informed me."

By the time I finish this project, it'd probably be around four months. So even if I wanted to continue working, it wouldn't be possible with my stomach being all huge, it'll make people talk. This is why I didn't feel any kind of resentment at all with Xiao Huaisu for discussing this matter with me. He knew how much blood sweat and tears I invested in this project, so he didn't try to stand in my way or ask me to just stay at home all the time and never go out. So with him being so considerate, how could I refused?

{Especially when that joy had something to do with me.}"What am I going to do about that overactive brain of yours? The Mrs. Xiao you guys have been blabbering about is me!" I shut him up directly, and sure enough, he was dead silent on the other end of the line—shocked, unable to say a word.

Especially when that joy had something to do with me.

Oh-my-god! I used this skill so freaking easily. I thought I would've shivered or stuttered or something, but there as nothing of the sort! It looks like I do have the temperament of a spoiled little prince in my heart!

After hearing what I said, he lifted his brows, asking: "Why didn't you tell me you were going for a check-up?" It seems he like he's holding it against me a little for going to get a check-up alone.

"Hey, tell me, you two have been hooking up since a long time ago, haven't you? Yet you kept me in the dark!"Before he finished speaking my face had already grown hot. I muttered out a few sounds, telling him I had already asked Dr. Chen and that he had said we should take extra care in the last three months but the other months were okay. So having heard this, he was relieved.

"Hey, tell me, you two have been hooking up since a long time ago, haven't you? Yet you kept me in the dark!"

No... That day, I said it so clearly that day. I pointed to myself and said I was Shiniang, but this guy... This guy didn't pick up on it and even went as far as making up a story about me being a mistress?

I smiled though, as if I hadn't noticed it, folding his hand into my own. "Aren't you busy right now? Besides, I didn't the slightest clue this was even what it was, I just went there for a regular physical. But, next time, I'll make sure to ask you to go with me, alright?" I acted so flirtatiously without a hint of embarrassment, even I was shocked after I was done.

"So... you and Professor Xiao are really together, right? like, {really} really?"I shook my head: "Nope. I can eat and sleep just fine, plus, I'm super energetic." If I wasn't, I would've never teased you so fervently last night, Mr. Xiao.

"So... you and Professor Xiao are really together, right? like, really really?"

Peeved at his words, I countered: "Having a good appetite is a blessing—a blessing! Don't you know that? So... if you have a problem with it on me, do you also have a problem with it on them?"

I almost fell to my knees. But, fortunately, thanks to my perseverance I was finally able to convince him Xiao Huaisu and I were a couple and I didn't go inserting myself in someone else's marriage.

Realising he had no option but to let me be, he sighed, then again took me in his embrace. But this time he was even more gentle than before, so much so, it could make a person rely on them completely. While he rubbed my back, his body suddenly stiffened, it seemed as though he suddenly remembered something, as he then asked in a worried tone: "Last... last night we..."

I almost fell to my knees. But, fortunately, thanks to my perseverance I was finally able to convince him Xiao Huaisu and I were a couple and I didn't go inserting myself in someone else's marriage.

"I'm seriously going to kill you."

"If they get wet I'll just change them again. What's there to worry about?" These overly cautious actions of his made me chuckle. "I'm just pregnant. Are you worried I'll bump into something like this? I honestly don't feel like anything's out of the ordinary, so don't worry so much, alright?"Tell me, have you two been hooking up since long ago?

"Damn, it feels like some kind of dream, you know? It's so freaking unreal..." Qiao Damai was still obviously in disbelief.

Afterwards, he said: "If... if I had just taken you to the hospital earlier... we wouldn't have found out so late. Are you alright, though? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"

"Damn, it feels like some kind of dream, you know? It's so freaking unreal..." Qiao Damai was still obviously in disbelief.

{I love you so much too!}Before he finished speaking my face had already grown hot. I muttered out a few sounds, telling him I had already asked Dr. Chen and that he had said we should take extra care in the last three months but the other months were okay. So having heard this, he was relieved.

I love you so much too!

Prompting me to reply: "Oh Da-ge, you're so wilful..."Tell me, have you two been hooking up since long ago?

Prompting me to reply: "Oh Da-ge, you're so wilful..."

Digging my ears, I thought: Isn't there till time for me to do it though?

I shook my head: "Nope. I can eat and sleep just fine, plus, I'm super energetic." If I wasn't, I would've never teased you so fervently last night, Mr. Xiao.

Digging my ears, I thought: Isn't there till time for me to do it though?

Even though I told him Dr. Chen said it was fine in the first few months, Xiao Huaisu still insisted on not laying a hand on me. We didn't do anything later that night either, only cuddling together quietly as we slept.He then sent back: Talk about stuffing cold dog foodT/n: It's when a single "dog" gets blasted with surprise lovey-dovey stuff. in a poor single guy's mouth...ಥ_ಥ

{If you don't use your brain, you'll just be confused.}But, all of a sudden, I felt bad for this second child who has yet to come out. Your sister has already taken you as her little underling.

If you don't use your brain, you'll just be confused.

"No, listen to what I'm saying.

Hearing this, Xiao Huaisu hesitated for a while before saying: "It looks like the one in your belly will take after you, carefreeT/n: the word used here can also mean optimistic and open-minded. as well as being a lil foodie."

"No, listen to what I'm saying.

To which he just replied: "Waiting to give birth."Without waiting for me to continue, Qiao Damai complained with resentment in his tone: "Li Tian, oh Li Tian, you have disappointed me so..."

To which he just replied: "Waiting to give birth."

"Hey... I just didn't have the time to tell you, you know?" {His reaction was much bigger than I thought!}Li You was shocked, enough to make her stand up and ask me: "Seriously?"

"Hey... I just didn't have the time to tell you, you know?" His reaction was much bigger than I thought!

Wrapping my arms around his neck, I giggled, asking: "Are you realising your love for me has grown even more? Hm? Don't you deny it!"

Peeved at his words, I countered: "Having a good appetite is a blessing—a blessing! Don't you know that? So... if you have a problem with it on me, do you also have a problem with it on them?"

Wrapping my arms around his neck, I giggled, asking: "Are you realising your love for me has grown even more? Hm? Don't you deny it!"

{I love you so much too!}"Aw... that sucks."

I love you so much too!

Afterwards, I asked him what sort of excuse he used to get it.

After letting me go, he lifted my chin and said firmly: "I never said I have a problem with it." After saying this, he kissed me, a very soft kiss, one overflowing with warmth.

Afterwards, I asked him what sort of excuse he used to get it.

"Hey... I just didn't have the time to tell you, you know?" {His reaction was much bigger than I thought!}If Qing Yichu came to find me, I would refuse hands down. So I believe that even if he does go looking for someone, he won't come looking for me, he's is smart.

"Hey... I just didn't have the time to tell you, you know?" His reaction was much bigger than I thought!

Li You had been sitting for a while, but when she saw me, her eyes lit up as she said: "Dad's making congee." And it was no wonder she was shocked. Usually, the one who made any Chinese styled breakfast was me. If Xiao Huaisu was the one preparing things, most of the time, it'd be western dishes, so stuff like fried eggs, sandwiches and milk were the norm.

After our kiss, he again held me in his arms, saying: "I'll give you a bath."

After our kiss, he again held me in his arms, saying: "I'll give you a bath."The congee was really tasty, it was clearly made earlier, and there was also some boiled eggs along with some stir-fried vegetables.

After our kiss, he again held me in his arms, saying: "I'll give you a bath."

iana: Qiao Damai never disappointsI love you so much too!

iana: Qiao Damai never disappoints

"But what if the clothes you just changed into get soaked?"

When he saw I was going to refuse, he leaned over and kissed me, then while resting his arms on my shoulders, he continued: "Whatever you decide, I'll support you and I'll never take it upon myself to make you take the leave and stay at home. I just think it hasn't been long since you've been pregnant and things might still not be stable. So after staying home to observe things for a few days, and making sure there are no problems, you can return to the company whenever you want to finish your work."

Qiao Damai thought about it then said: "Yeah, that's true. When there's a wedding then, you don't need to invite me. Pretend I don't even exist. After that, we can resume our diplomatic relations, okay?"By the time I finish this project, it'd probably be around four months. So even if I wanted to continue working, it wouldn't be possible with my stomach being all huge, it'll make people talk. This is why I didn't feel any kind of resentment at all with Xiao Huaisu for discussing this matter with me.

So with him being so considerate, how could I refused?

After hearing what I said, he lifted his brows, asking: "Why didn't you tell me you were going for a check-up?" It seems he like he's holding it against me a little for going to get a check-up alone.

Xiao Huaisu and I just sat there eating silently with smiles lining both of our faces.When it was over three months since the second child has been in my tummy, it was time to celebrate the Spring Festival. So after my project was completed, and my handover at work in the last days winter vacation was done, Xiao Huaisu directly helped me get a leave of absence—with pay.

Xiao Huaisu and I just sat there eating silently with smiles lining both of our faces.

"I'm seriously going to kill you."Oh-my-god! I used this skill so freaking easily. I thought I would've shivered or stuttered or something, but there as nothing of the sort! It looks like I do have the temperament of a spoiled little prince in my heart!

"I'm seriously going to kill you."

In the morning, Chen Fuzhi finished telling me, and in the afternoon, Lian Youyi also gave me a call to tell me Qing Yichu was coming to the country for a visit, happily saying: "You and Yichu are around the same age, so when he's over there to enjoy himself, he'll have to trouble you and Huaisu." I understood that from Lian Youyi's perspective since Lian Youyi raised Huaisu as her own son, Qing Yichu was her brothers child, and Qing Yichu and I being of the same kind meant that no matter how you looked at it, to her, we should be close.

"I just want to hold you, it has nothing to do with me afraid you'll bump into something. But... um... you really have gained a lot of weight."

I sneakily sent him a picture of the ring on my finger: {He gave me this ring.}Of course, I couldn't say I wasn't free. After all, when an elder speaks to you in person, there's no real reason to try getting out of something like accompanying someone coming to the country on vacation, so... naturally, I agreed.

I sneakily sent him a picture of the ring on my finger: He gave me this ring.

Since then, I've been living like a little porker, eating and sleeping, sleeping and eating, day after day. After the Lantern Festival (15th day of the first lunar month), Xiao Huaisu went back to work and Li You started back at school, so I was left at home all by my lonesome."What?!" Hearing Qiao Damai's words left me stunned. What the actual hell?

Without waiting for me to continue, Qiao Damai complained with resentment in his tone: "Li Tian, oh Li Tian, you have disappointed me so..."

Aren't you being just a bit too frank there, mister?

Xiao Huaisu and I just sat there eating silently with smiles lining both of our faces.I almost spurted out a mouthful of blood at this. Can I ever be that brazen? Who is waiting to give birth, huh? I'm only three months along and already asking for a leave of absence.

Xiao Huaisu and I just sat there eating silently with smiles lining both of our faces.

"I had no time yesterday and was just planning on calling you. I never thought you'd call." I was actually planning to call him after I woke up. I just never expected him to be so eager.

Oh no... is being drown in so much sugar alright?

"I had no time yesterday and was just planning on calling you. I never thought you'd call." I was actually planning to call him after I woke up. I just never expected him to be so eager.

"Yep."

The next morning, while Xiao Huaisu was buttoning up, he said to me: "I know you've been working working on an important project in your department these days, but for the next few days, I'd like to suggest for you to take a rest at home for a bit and observe for a while. After all, you should pay more attention in the first few months.

"Yep."

Right as I sat down, I asked him: "Did you buy pickled veggies?" How can you eat congee without pickles, huh? Mix them in a little sesame oil and... just thinking about it makes my mouth water!

But, all of a sudden, I felt bad for this second child who has yet to come out. Your sister has already taken you as her little underling.

In a daze, I said alright. Afterwards, I was pushed off to the bathroom to wash up.

Later, Xiao Huaisu took Li You to school and I was planning to go back to sleep Qiao Damai had called.

He made breakfast.

Qiao Damai continued, his voice low and remorseful: "How could you become a mistress, and doing so with Professor Xiao too! I'm... I'm so disappointed in you!

"Like what?" I asked without thinking.He then added: "It's my domain, and my call."

"Like what?" I asked without thinking.

The chopsticks in Xiao Huaisu's hand stopped for a while, with him then replying: "I tossed it."

The congee was really tasty, it was clearly made earlier, and there was also some boiled eggs along with some stir-fried vegetables.

His eyes lowered, fixed on me, not denying it in any way as he hummed in agreement. That gaze of his was so solemn, it made this sometimes weak and sometimes strong heart of mine skip, thump, and pound without end.God, he makes me want to pry that skull of his open to see if there really is only water and flourT/n: it means to have a head full of paste, being an idiot. moving around in there?

"No, listen to what I'm saying.

But just as I finally felt some satisfaction, I heard Qiao Damai whisper: "Are you... are you lying to me? Are you that crazy for a position? You're a man! So how can you be Mrs. Xiao? Why do you want to be a mistress? Aren't you thinking about Youyou? Did Professor Xiao kidnap you?!"

"Aw... that sucks."

Of course, I couldn't say I wasn't free.

Oh no... is being drown in so much sugar alright?

"Your body's in a special condition right now, you shouldn't take chances with your health."

Just as I was peeling an egg, hearing his words, Li You looked at me and asked: "Special condition?" Little girl, you really do know how to find the crux of the matter, don't you?

Before he finished speaking my face had already grown hot. I muttered out a few sounds, telling him I had already asked Dr. Chen and that he had said we should take extra care in the last three months but the other months were okay. So having heard this, he was relieved.I sent him a laughing emoji (🤣) because of this, and in return he sent me a farewell one (👋😑).

"What am I going to do about that overactive brain of yours? The Mrs. Xiao you guys have been blabbering about is me!" I shut him up directly, and sure enough, he was dead silent on the other end of the line—shocked, unable to say a word.

Li You was shocked, enough to make her stand up and ask me: "Seriously?"

"I'm seriously going to kill you."No... That day, I said it so clearly that day. I pointed to myself and said I was Shiniang, but this guy... This guy didn't pick up on it and even went as far as making up a story about me being a mistress?

While slowly drinking my porridge, I nodded in response.

In a daze, I said alright. Afterwards, I was pushed off to the bathroom to wash up.Though... him saying he just wants to hug me, does make me feel all sweet like honey.

In a daze, I said alright. Afterwards, I was pushed off to the bathroom to wash up.

Xiao Huaisu took Li You's congee, stirring a few times to allow the heat to dissipate, smiling at her brightly as he said: "Didn't you want a little partner?" After saying this, he observed Li You's expression.After hearing Xiao Huaisu and I had gotten our marriage certificate, he then scolded me saying: "You got married without even telling me! You really are a shitty friend!"

Li You then ran over to me to take a look,saying: "That's great! I'm going to be a Big SisT/n: the big sis here is a term used by female gang leaders.!"

"Didn't you say you'd call me after you got a psysical exam? Why the hell haven't you called!" Qia Damai growled.

Xiao Huaisu and I just sat there eating silently with smiles lining both of our faces.

"Didn't you say you'd call me after you got a psysical exam? Why the hell haven't you called!" Qia Damai growled.

"So... you and Professor Xiao are really together, right? like, {really} really?"Tell me, have you two been hooking up since long ago?

"How could you be a mistress!"

"Didn't you say you'd call me after you got a psysical exam? Why the hell haven't you called!" Qia Damai growled.

Um... it actually hasn't been that long since we've been hooking up. But just as I hesitated, planning to say something, Qiao Damai said: "How could you do this?! How could you suddenly just bend, and be like..."

Digging my ears, I thought: Isn't there till time for me to do it though?

"I had no time yesterday and was just planning on calling you. I never thought you'd call." I was actually planning to call him after I woke up. I just never expected him to be so eager.

"So... you and Professor Xiao are really together, right? like, {really} really?"Seeing him constantly stare at my stomach, feeling a bit uncomfortable, I sneakily pulled the blanket to cover it then as I said: "So... there's no need for us to go to the doctor's since I already went to get my results today and Dr. Chen informed me."

"So... you and Professor Xiao are really together, right? like, really really?"

"Aw... that sucks."

Without waiting for me to continue, Qiao Damai complained with resentment in his tone: "Li Tian, oh Li Tian, you have disappointed me so..."

"Aw... that sucks."

"Like what?" I asked without thinking.

"Hey... I just didn't have the time to tell you, you know?" His reaction was much bigger than I thought!

"Like what?" I asked without thinking.

After hearing Xiao Huaisu and I had gotten our marriage certificate, he then scolded me saying: "You got married without even telling me! You really are a shitty friend!"Because I as scared Lee Moli would stop me from going to woork after finding out I was pregnant, I didn't let her know about it until two days before the start of the Spring Festival and after the after I finished my project and had taken my leave. I acted as though I had also just found out abut it as well. My words were sincere as much as they were flawless, and she fell for it hook line and sinker.

{Can there be anything more interesting too see than a person who's usually reserved suddenly light up in pure happiness?}Li You was shocked, enough to make her stand up and ask me: "Seriously?"

Can there be anything more interesting too see than a person who's usually reserved suddenly light up in pure happiness?

Prompting me to reply: "Oh Da-ge, you're so wilful..."

"Hey, tell me, you two have been hooking up since a long time ago, haven't you? Yet you kept me in the dark!"

Prompting me to reply: "Oh Da-ge, you're so wilful..."

If Qing Yichu came to find me, I would refuse hands down. So I believe that even if he does go looking for someone, he won't come looking for me, he's is smart.

Tell me, have you two been hooking up since long ago?

Qiao Damai continued, his voice low and remorseful: "How could you become a mistress, and doing so with Professor Xiao too! I'm... I'm so disappointed in you!}Seeing him constantly stare at my stomach, feeling a bit uncomfortable, I sneakily pulled the blanket to cover it then as I said: "So... there's no need for us to go to the doctor's since I already went to get my results today and Dr. Chen informed me."

Qiao Damai continued, his voice low and remorseful: "How could you become a mistress, and doing so with Professor Xiao too! I'm... I'm so disappointed in you!

The chopsticks in Xiao Huaisu's hand stopped for a while, with him then replying: "I tossed it."Peeved at his words, I countered: "Having a good appetite is a blessing—a blessing! Don't you know that? So... if you have a problem with it on me, do you also have a problem with it on them?"

The chopsticks in Xiao Huaisu's hand stopped for a while, with him then replying: "I tossed it."

I sent him a laughing emoji (🤣) because of this, and in return he sent me a farewell one (👋😑).

"So... you and Professor Xiao are really together, right? like, {really} really?"Afterwards, I asked him what sort of excuse he used to get it.

"So... you and Professor Xiao are really together, right? like, really really?"

Just as I was peeling an egg, hearing his words, Li You looked at me and asked: "Special condition?" Little girl, you really do know how to find the crux of the matter, don't you?

"What?!" Hearing Qiao Damai's words left me stunned. What the actual hell?

The congee was really tasty, it was clearly made earlier, and there was also some boiled eggs along with some stir-fried vegetables."Hey, tell me, you two have been hooking up since a long time ago, haven't you? Yet you kept me in the dark!"

The congee was really tasty, it was clearly made earlier, and there was also some boiled eggs along with some stir-fried vegetables.

Before he finished speaking my face had already grown hot. I muttered out a few sounds, telling him I had already asked Dr. Chen and that he had said we should take extra care in the last three months but the other months were okay. So having heard this, he was relieved.Wrapping my arms around his neck, I giggled, asking: "Are you realising your love for me has grown even more? Hm? Don't you deny it!"

Li You was shocked, enough to make her stand up and ask me: "Seriously?"

God, he makes me want to pry that skull of his open to see if there really is only water and flourT/n: it means to have a head full of paste, being an idiot. moving around in there?

Li You was shocked, enough to make her stand up and ask me: "Seriously?"

I stayed at home resting for the next three days, then after making sure there was nothing wrong with me, and my increased food intake was like it was before, I went back to work, burying myself in my project.I shook my head: "Nope. I can eat and sleep just fine, plus, I'm super energetic." If I wasn't, I would've never teased you so fervently last night, Mr. Xiao.

{If you don't use your brain, you'll just be confused.}Peeved at his words, I countered: "Having a good appetite is a blessing—a blessing! Don't you know that? So... if you have a problem with it on me, do you also have a problem with it on them?"

If you don't use your brain, you'll just be confused.

"No, listen to what I'm saying.

"But what if the clothes you just changed into get soaked?"

"Don't say anything. You're conscience will suffer condemnation! Just stop as quickly as you can! Repent, repent and be saved, it's not too late! We're still friends!"

"But what if the clothes you just changed into get soaked?"

"Your body's in a special condition right now, you shouldn't take chances with your health."

While slowly drinking my porridge, I nodded in response.

He made breakfast.

I almost fell to my knees. But, fortunately, thanks to my perseverance I was finally able to convince him Xiao Huaisu and I were a couple and I didn't go inserting myself in someone else's marriage.

He made breakfast.

"What part of that was a wedding? If there was a wedding, you think I wouldn't invite you? Why would I miss the chance to snatch money out of your pocket, huh?"

"What?!" Hearing Qiao Damai's words left me stunned. What the actual hell?

Aren't you being just a bit too frank there, mister?

"I'm seriously going to kill you."

Aren't you being just a bit too frank there, mister?

"No, listen to what I'm saying.}Seeing him constantly stare at my stomach, feeling a bit uncomfortable, I sneakily pulled the blanket to cover it then as I said: "So... there's no need for us to go to the doctor's since I already went to get my results today and Dr. Chen informed me."

"I just want to hold you, it has nothing to do with me afraid you'll bump into something. But... um... you really have gained a lot of weight."

"So... you and Professor Xiao are really together, right? like, really really?"

I almost spurted out a mouthful of blood at this. {Can I ever be that brazen? Who is waiting to give birth, huh? I'm only three months along and already asking for a leave of absence.}iana: Qiao Damai never disappoints

I almost spurted out a mouthful of blood at this. Can I ever be that brazen? Who is waiting to give birth, huh? I'm only three months along and already asking for a leave of absence.

In a daze, I said alright. Afterwards, I was pushed off to the bathroom to wash up.

"Damn, it feels like some kind of dream, you know? It's so freaking unreal..." Qiao Damai was still obviously in disbelief.

"I'm seriously going to kill you.""I just want to hold you, it has nothing to do with me afraid you'll bump into something. But... um... you really have gained a lot of weight."

"I'm seriously going to kill you."

To which he just replied: "Waiting to give birth."

I sneakily sent him a picture of the ring on my finger: He gave me this ring.

To which he just replied: "Waiting to give birth."

Just as I was peeling an egg, hearing his words, Li You looked at me and asked: "Special condition?" {Little girl, you really do know how to find the crux of the matter, don't you?}"Didn't you say you'd call me after you got a psysical exam? Why the hell haven't you called!" Qia Damai growled.

Just as I was peeling an egg, hearing his words, Li You looked at me and asked: "Special condition?" Little girl, you really do know how to find the crux of the matter, don't you?

His eyes lowered, fixed on me, not denying it in any way as he hummed in agreement. That gaze of his was so solemn, it made this sometimes weak and sometimes strong heart of mine skip, thump, and pound without end.The next morning, while Xiao Huaisu was buttoning up, he said to me: "I know you've been working working on an important project in your department these days, but for the next few days, I'd like to suggest for you to take a rest at home for a bit and observe for a while. After all, you should pay more attention in the first few months.

He then sent back: Talk about stuffing cold dog foodT/n: It's when a single "dog" gets blasted with surprise lovey-dovey stuff. in a poor single guy's mouth...ಥ_ಥ

Wrapping my arms around his neck, I giggled, asking: "Are you realising your love for me has grown even more? Hm? Don't you deny it!"After hearing what I said, he lifted his brows, asking: "Why didn't you tell me you were going for a check-up?" It seems he like he's holding it against me a little for going to get a check-up alone.

"Hey... I just didn't have the time to tell you, you know?" {His reaction was much bigger than I thought!}Xiao Huaisu took Li You's congee, stirring a few times to allow the heat to dissipate, smiling at her brightly as he said: "Didn't you want a little partner?" After saying this, he observed Li You's expression.

"Hey... I just didn't have the time to tell you, you know?" His reaction was much bigger than I thought!

After our kiss, he again held me in his arms, saying: "I'll give you a bath."

Afterwards, I asked him what sort of excuse he used to get it.

After hearing Xiao Huaisu and I had gotten our marriage certificate, he then scolded me saying: "You got married without even telling me! You really are a shitty friend!"After letting me go, he lifted my chin and said firmly: "I never said I have a problem with it." After saying this, he kissed me, a very soft kiss, one overflowing with warmth.

Xiao Huaisu and I just sat there eating silently with smiles lining both of our faces.

"Your body's in a special condition right now, you shouldn't take chances with your health."Realising he had no option but to let me be, he sighed, then again took me in his embrace. But this time he was even more gentle than before, so much so, it could make a person rely on them completely. While he rubbed my back, his body suddenly stiffened, it seemed as though he suddenly remembered something, as he then asked in a worried tone: "Last... last night we..."

"Your body's in a special condition right now, you shouldn't take chances with your health."

But those days were only short-lived. One morning, Li You's grandma in France, Chen Fuzhi, rang me up and told me Qing Yichu would be coming here to visit Xiao Huaisu and I for a while, along with him never having returned to the country before now. So he planned on coming here to experience the culture and scenery, and she asked me to welcome him if I had the time.

Because I as scared Lee Moli would stop me from going to woork after finding out I was pregnant, I didn't let her know about it until two days before the start of the Spring Festival and after the after I finished my project and had taken my leave. I acted as though I had also just found out abut it as well. My words were sincere as much as they were flawless, and she fell for it hook line and sinker.

Later, Xiao Huaisu took Li You to school and I was planning to go back to sleep Qiao Damai had called."Hey, tell me, you two have been hooking up since a long time ago, haven't you? Yet you kept me in the dark!"

Though... him saying he just wants to hug me, does make me feel all sweet like honey.

{I love you so much too!}"No, listen to what I'm saying.

I love you so much too!

After hearing Xiao Huaisu and I had gotten our marriage certificate, he then scolded me saying: "You got married without even telling me! You really are a shitty friend!"Especially when that joy had something to do with me.
