Chapter 111 I Want to Hug You

Yu Li said she felt embarrassed, but she didn't hesitate at all in her actions.

She leaped onto Qi Chenyan's back, but only after jumping up did she remember that she was pregnant. Even though she was still early in the pregnancy, she should be more careful.

If the momentum from her jump was too great and Qi Chenyan didn't catch her, it wouldn't be a big deal if she fell flat on her face, but it would be bad if the baby got hurt.

Fortunately, Qi Chenyan caught her steadily. "Yu Li, hold on to me, don't fall."

Yu Li hummed in agreement, and almost as soon as Qi Chenyan spoke, she reached out and wrapped her arms around his neck.

Qi Chenyan stood up smoothly and steadily, and then heard his little wife on his back ask, "Am I heavy?"

He smiled and said, "Even if you and the child are added in the future, I can still walk briskly."

Yu Li exclaimed in a deliberately exaggerated "Wow!": "Director Qi is really awesome."

Because Qi Chenyan carried her steadily and his breathing didn't change much, Yu Li, after confirming that she wasn't heavy, swayed her legs from side to side.

"You know what, the air seems a lot fresher at this altitude!"

Qi Chenyan said with a smile, "I'm at this altitude every day, so I don't really feel anything. But you rarely have the chance to smell the air above, so take a good look. It's a rare opportunity."

Yu Li first took a deep breath, and then realized a beat later that the other person was talking about her being short.

He usually only comes into contact with air at an altitude of 168 meters, which is completely different from the altitude he comes into contact with at 188 meters.

She was both angry and annoyed, and grabbed Qi Chenyan's ears with both hands, one on each side.

"Qi Chenyan, you've gone astray! You're mocking and ridiculing me! How despicable!"

As she spoke, she deliberately tugged at her hair, "But I advise you to change your tune as soon as possible. After all, you can't use your hands now, so I can do whatever I want to your ears and your face."

"Scared? If you are, I can give you another chance to turn over a new leaf. Tell me, who is the shorty?"

Qi Chenyan was still smiling, but he still cooperated with Yu Li by saying, "It's me."

"Then who is the most beautiful girl in the universe?"

Qi Chenyan: "You, my wife, Yu Li."

Oh dear, you're already so good, but you had to add the second half of the sentence. It's kind of embarrassing.

Yu Li let go of her hands, covered her face, and leaned her face against Qi Chenyan's back.

A well-built man, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, can lean comfortably against anything.

"Qi Chenyan, do you know how many steps it takes to walk home from this path?"

The man replied slowly and deliberately, "I'm sure my incredibly intelligent and beautiful wife, the most beautiful girl in the universe, knows the answer to that question."

How can this man apply what he's learned to other situations?

Touching words can make people feel overjoyed.

"Eight thousand five hundred and seventy-nine steps."

“This road leads to the elementary school I attended when I was a child. Every day, my best friend and I would walk from one end of our house to the other end of the school with our schoolbags on our backs.”

“When I was a child, I often overslept and arrived at school just in time. I didn’t have time to eat breakfast, so I would nibble on my breakfast while walking.”

At this point, Yu Li suddenly pointed to a seemingly ordinary rock by the roadside, but it was as big as a drill bit.

"Look, that's my milestone. I even engraved something on it. Can you tell what it says?"

Qi Chenyan paused, showing no impatience at Yu Li's sudden idea. Even with someone on his back, he bent down slightly to take a look as he approached.

"Little Pear, Little Xi was here."

The standard template for Chinese people.

Yu Li immediately gave a thumbs up, "You can recognize such crooked and messy handwriting at a glance. As expected of Director Qi, you're top-notch."

As she spoke, Yu Li patted his shoulder, "Put me down first."

Qi Chenyan was afraid that Yu Li would jump down when there was still some height left, after all, his little wife was really impulsive.

So he squatted down first, making sure his feet could easily touch the ground at this height, before he let go.

Yu Li's feet touched the ground steadily, but she hopped a little in place.

This seemingly childlike gesture made Qi Chenyan smile with a mixture of helplessness and doting affection.

Yu Li didn't see it. Instead, she squatted down by the stone, picked up a small stone, and carved words on the "milestone".

"Alright, from now on, this will be a milestone for the three of us."

Qi Chenyan cooperated and squatted down beside her. He saw the words on the stone and they changed.

Xiao Yan, Xiao Li, and Xiao Xi were here.

Since she couldn't add words after it, she could only add them at the very beginning. Yu Li thought she was a genius.

Qi Chenyan laughed and said, "Then after the children are born, can't we add 'Xiao Bao, Xiao Yan, Xiao Li, and Xiao Xi were here'?"

Yu Li gave a thumbs-up and touched her lower abdomen. "Oh right, I almost forgot about you, baby. I'm so sorry, baby. Mommy didn't mean to forget you. To make it up to you, I'll write your name in the biggest font and engrave it on your name, okay?"

As she spoke, Yu Li tilted her head and pretended to listen very attentively for a while.

Qi Chenyan smiled and asked, "What did the baby say?"

He said "very good".

Qi Chenyan laughed out loud: "It seems that the prenatal education you usually provide is very successful. You're so young, yet you can already speak English."

Yu Li said proudly, "That's right. His father is a genius who is fluent in ten languages, so of course he is a little genius too. He can handle a little English."

Her legs were a little numb from squatting, so when Yu Li stood up, she stomped her feet and then subconsciously stretched out her hands to Qi Chenyan, wanting to continue carrying him on her back.

Qi Chenyan chuckled, stepped forward, and easily lifted her up in a princess carry.

The sudden airborne motion made Yu Li instinctively reach out and wrap her arms around the other person's neck.

After realizing what had happened, his face turned a little red.

"I didn't want a hug."

Qi Chenyan hummed in agreement: "It's me who wants to hug you."

Yu Li buried her face in his chest shyly, but stubbornly said, "I didn't ask for it, you insisted on having it."

This pose will definitely turn heads on the street.

But when villagers see you walking on a country road, their first reaction is...

"Oh dear, Xiaoli, what happened to you? Did you hurt your leg? Are you alright? Why don't you ride on my ox, I'll carry you to the clinic?"

Yu Li blushed slightly and coughed lightly, "No need, no need, we were just joking. I'm perfectly fine, nothing's wrong."

The villagers then gave him a knowing look, "You young people really know how to have fun! Not bad, not bad, the young couple has a really good relationship."

"We're almost home," Yu Li said, swinging her legs. "We're home now. Put me down first. It won't look good if Grandma sees us."

Qi Chenyan raised an eyebrow slightly, "What if they've already been seen?"

Following Qi Chenyan's gaze, Yu Li happened to meet the eyes of her grandmother, who was beaming from ear to ear.

Grandma immediately exclaimed "Oh!" and turned her back, saying, "You all continue. This old woman is getting old, my eyesight is failing, and I'm hard of hearing. I can't hear or see anything."
