Xu Wan has never been good at lying.

Her lie was seen through by Jiang Tingzhou in less than a second.

However, the fact that such a wishing plaque falls to the ground is seen as a bad omen by anyone.

The two people understood each other without saying a word; one chose to lie, and the other chose not to expose them.

"I was a little flustered when you hugged me just now, and my hands were shaking badly. I'll just hang down here this time."

As Xu Wan spoke, she had already begun to re-hang the wishing plaque on her own.

This time, she tied the wishing plaque with two tight knots, gave it a tug, and laughed, "Okay, this way it'll definitely be fine."

"Um."

Jiang Tingzhou smiled and agreed.

After hanging the wishing plaque for the second time, the two of them walked very slowly, looking back from time to time.

This time, the wishing plaque didn't fall down until the shelf was no longer visible.

After leaving the temple, Xu Wan repeated, "You see, the first time it was because I didn't hang it properly."

Jiang Tingzhou nodded and said "Mm".

He felt insecure but dared not say it.

After leaving the temple, the two went out for a meal and shopping, buying several pieces of clothing suitable for pregnant women before returning home.

Xu Wan has had no other symptoms since becoming pregnant, except that she is more sleepy.

I fell asleep around 10 p.m.

After the woman fell asleep, Jiang Tingzhou carefully sat down beside her and gently brushed aside her long hair with his fingers.

He gazed quietly at Xu Wan's peaceful sleeping face and said in a very soft voice, "Wanwan, I hope our child can be born healthy, and I hope both mother and child are safe, but that would be too greedy of me. I only ask that you stay by my side in peace."

Jiang Tingzhou's feelings for Xu Wan are quite peculiar.

There seemed to be nothing dramatic between them, but this girl was exceptionally attractive to him, making him very afraid of losing her.

However, his surroundings were very complicated, and he was afraid that if more people knew about Xu Wan's existence, her safety would be further threatened.

At this moment, Xu Wan seemed to be having a dream. She groped for Jiang Tingzhou's hand and whispered, "Husband."

"I'm here."

Jiang Tingzhou responded.

The woman seemed relieved to hear the response and closed her eyes, falling into a deep sleep again.

That night, Xu Wan was not bothered by the wishing plaque and slept exceptionally well.

Half-asleep, I heard a "ding" sound from WeChat.

She fumbled for her phone and brought it to her face, seeing that it was a message from Ling Ya.

Lingya: [Teacher Xu, are you free to teach Sen Sen today? Morning or afternoon is fine.]

After reading the message, Xu Wan glanced to her side and noticed that Jiang Tingzhou had gotten up later than her, which was unusual for him today.

She saw the man slightly open his eyes because of her movement, leaned over, kissed his cheek, and said, "Good morning, honey, I have something I want to ask you."

"What?"

Jiang Tingzhou instinctively put his arm around the woman's waist, bringing her closer to him.

"The florist asked me if I was free to teach her son today. I don't have anything to do today. Could I teach a class for the kids this morning? It'll only be two hours."

Xu Wan spoke with a cautious tone, clearly afraid of being rejected by the man.

Jiang Tingzhou's instinct was to refuse.

He had never met the florist before; the person was a complete stranger to him.

Xu Wan regularly tutors a stranger at home, but he is resistant to it.

However, after hearing Xu Wan mention this person many times, Jiang Tingzhou felt that the store manager must be a good person.

After some internal struggle, Jiang Tingzhou said, "I'll take you there. I'll go to the company in the meantime, and then I'll drive to pick you up when it's almost time."
