Jiang Yue is almost four months pregnant, and because it's twins, her pregnancy is already showing.

When she has nothing to do, Jiang Yue likes to sit on the balcony, drinking warm water and reading a book. She sometimes touches her stomach and thinks about Lu Jingnian.

Before Lu Jingnian left, he told her that he would be back in six months or a year after this mission. Now he has been gone for almost four months. Is he coming back soon?

I wonder if he'll be shocked when he comes back and sees me with such a big belly?

Jiang Yue couldn't help but laugh when she thought about how Lu Jingnian would be stunned when he saw her with her big belly.

"Baby, shall we wait for Daddy to come home together?"

These past few days, Jiang Yue has occasionally felt the baby in her belly move.

According to Dr. Liu, based on the timing of her pregnancy, the fact that she can feel fetal movement now means that the baby is healthy.

You should panic if you can't feel the baby moving.

As her belly began to show, Jiang Yue found it increasingly inconvenient to do things.

Three more milk tea shops have opened in the past two months. Madam Lu and Lu Yan have been busy with these matters, while Cheng Wei has been in charge of the milk tea workshop.

Jiang Yue's task during this period was to take good care of her pregnancy, and she also donated several school buildings to several rural primary schools in the suburbs of Kyoto.

In those days, whether in Kyoto or elsewhere, there were many schools with poor conditions.

When Jiang Yue encountered this situation, she donated two buildings so that the children's learning environment could improve as soon as possible.

Soon, the New Year arrived.

Jiang Yue did not return to City A for the Spring Festival this year, but she called home on New Year's Eve.

I learned that Yao Hua, who went to the south, had returned for the Spring Festival with Aunt Yu. Yao Hua was also pregnant. Calculating the months, she must have gotten pregnant a few days after she got her marriage certificate with Political Commissar Yu. The timing was only a few days later than Jiang Yue's.

Because she was afraid of worrying her family, Yao Hua kept it a secret. Even Political Commissar Yu didn't tell her. No one knew about it except her and her aunt. She was pregnant with a single baby, and her loose clothes completely covered her slightly protruding belly, so there was no visible change.

However, Yao Hua and Political Commissar Yu have gone home first and are not at the Jiang family's place.

Jiang Yue chatted with Shen Min and Grandma Jiang for a while, and only reluctantly hung up the phone when they had to go prepare the New Year's Eve dinner. They would call back when Yao Hua went over that evening.

...

City A.

Yao Hua sat on the sofa, looking at Political Commissar Yu who had a cold face, and stuck out her tongue guiltily.

"Don't be angry. I didn't tell you because I was afraid you would worry about me."

Besides, my aunt has been taking care of me, so nothing will happen to me.

"It will be too late once something happens."

Political Commissar Yu reached out as if to pinch her cheek hard, but then hesitated.

"You didn't even tell me you were pregnant, Yao Hua, you're getting more and more rebellious."

His daughter used to be very obedient and would tell him everything. But now?

After going to the South, she even dared to hide such a big thing as her pregnancy from him. This girl is getting wilder and wilder.

Commissar Yu felt extremely wronged. What use was he, her husband, in her eyes?

"I'm just afraid you'll worry about me. You have to go to training every day. What if something happens to you because you're worried about me?"

When Yao Hua saw that his eyes were red, she quickly rushed into his arms to comfort him.

"Don't be sad, I came back to tell you."

As she spoke, she took Political Commissar Yu's hand and placed it on her stomach.

"Feel him, he's so well-behaved. I haven't had any adverse reactions since I got pregnant, and I can eat and sleep well."

My aunt was worried that my cooking wouldn't suit my taste, so she specially hired a nanny who could cook to take care of me. She accompanies me for a walk every evening. My child and I are doing very well, really!

When Political Commissar Yu heard that her aunt accompanied her for walks every day, he became even more unhappy, as these were things he should be doing.

"Don't be upset, I'm really fine now."

Yao Hua reached out and pinched his cheek. "If you're unhappy, I'll be unhappy too. The doctor said that a pregnant woman's mood is very important."

"I'm not unhappy."

Political Commissar Yu reached out and pulled the person into a tight embrace. "I just want to be with you every day."

Upon hearing this, Yao Hua smiled.

"Don't overthink it. Even if I stay in City A, you'll be working every day and often won't be home for days on end. You can't be with me every day either. I've already started developing my own career in the south."

My clothing company will be up and running soon, and once it's on track, I'll be able to come back and see you more often.

She was also reluctant to part with him, but Yao Hua wanted to develop her own career even more.

No matter how good a man is, nothing beats a successful career.

"snort!"

Political Commissar Yu gave a light snort and then said, "Tomorrow I'll ask the leaders if I can be transferred to the south. I still want to be closer to you."

“If you really want to go, then go and ask. If you can’t, don’t force yourself. I will bring the child back to you, and I definitely won’t let your child have a random father.”

As Yao Hua spoke, she kissed him on the cheek.

Political Commissar Yu: "..." This girl is no longer the Yao Hua of the past. She's so wild now that he feels like he might lose control of her at any moment.

"Okay, stop overthinking. Let's hurry up and get ready. We're going to my godmother's for dinner soon."

Aunt Yu went to visit Uncle Yu. The two of them will spend the Spring Festival at the military base this year. Aunt Yu's eldest brother and sister-in-law are in Kyoto and can't come back, so Political Commissar Yu and Yao Hua have agreed to spend the Spring Festival at the Jiang family's house.

Commissar Yu pursed his lips as he watched Yao Hua get up from his arms without any hesitation to pack her things. Then he got up to chase after her and pulled her into his arms from behind.

"Huahua, have you noticed that you're not clingy to me anymore?"

Yao Hua: "...Really?"

How come she didn't notice?

Political Commissar Yu: "Yes, it is."

He rested his chin on Yao Hua's shoulder, his palm covering her slightly protruding belly, looking as aggrieved as an abandoned puppy.

"Since you came back, you've either been with your aunt or talking to Grandma Jiang and the others. You finally came home with me, but you only sat in my lap for a little while before you had to go to the Jiang family's house."

"I'm definitely not the most important person to you."

He couldn't compare to Jiang Yue's position in Yao Hua's heart, and now Political Commissar Yu felt that the Jiang family members held a higher position in Yao Hua's heart than he did.

Yao Hua was amused by his aggrieved look.

"Don't be sad. I care about you the most. The reason I'm in such a hurry to go to my godmother's house is because I want to go as soon as possible and come back as soon as possible so that you can hold me and sleep with me tonight."

No wonder Yueyue used to tell her that men are sometimes like children and need to be coaxed.

Now she understood why Yueyue always liked to make Battalion Commander Lu happy.

After Yao Hua finished speaking, she thought for a moment and then touched Commissar Yu's head. His hair was a bit stiff and prickly to the touch, but Yao Hua liked it.

"You have no idea how much I've been unable to sleep these past few months without you by my side."
