But the wives said that we shouldn't feel sorry for men.

Therefore, Shen Qiaoyue dared not be too presumptuous, nor could she let Lu Chen touch her, after all, she was pregnant and had to be responsible for the child.

Lu Chen also tried his best to restrain the evil thoughts in his heart.

"Don't worry, honey, I have enough self-control," Lu Chen reassured Shen Qiaoyue.

Shen Qiaoyue didn't believe Lu Chen at all. Her face didn't show any change. At this moment, Lu Chen's whole body was burning hot and his heart was beating very fast.

She began to regret teasing Lu Chen.

"Actually, there's another way to make you feel more comfortable." Shen Qiaoyue has lived two lives, after all; there's more than one way to solve a problem.

Lu Chen, this innocent person, didn't understand.

He looked down at Shen Qiaoyue with a puzzled expression.

He saw her whisper something in his ear, and his body trembled. He was extremely shocked. Then, Lu Chen felt his heart pounding and his Adam's apple bobbing.

Shen Qiaoyue took the initiative to hug Lu Chen's neck and kiss him. Lu Chen, stunned, let Shen Qiaoyue do whatever she wanted.

When it came to that point, Lu Chen stopped Shen Qiaoyue's hand.

He immediately stood up, turning his back to Shen Qiaoyue.

The wife's idea was too bold. She cleared her throat and said, "I'll go to the kitchen and see if the water is ready."

Shen Qiaoyue lay helplessly on the bed and took a deep breath!

This man is so tactless. I was just trying to help him out, but he won't even pay for it.

She chuckled inwardly, then, feeling incredibly ashamed, covered her face with the blanket and laughed unrestrainedly.

Lu Chen can never escape her in this lifetime; he is destined to be Shen Qiaoyue's man.

Before getting married, Shen Qiaoyue's mother gave her a lot of advice, but she never had to use it.

Lu Chen went to the kitchen and took a deep breath.

Shen Qiaoyue has actually taken the lead; this won't do.

Lu Chen vowed to take back the dominant position.

After thinking it over, I took a stool, sat down in front of the stove, and added firewood to boil water.

"Brother, sister-in-law, I'm done washing. You can go wash up now." After washing, Lu He took her clothes to the room behind the washroom to hang them up to dry.

Because it's been raining a lot lately, we can't dry clothes in the yard, so we have to dry them in a small shed behind the house.

That house was used to store firewood and other odds and ends. It was quite spacious, so I strung up two lines to hang clothes on rainy days.

"I understand," Lu Chen replied to Lu He from the kitchen.

Lu He returned to her room and closed the door.

Then she put on her clothes, took out Lu Chen's shirt, and put it on the sofa.

Lu Chen took the water bucket and, together with Shen Qiaoyue, scooped a large bucket of hot water into the water room.

"Honey, I've already taken the hot water to the washroom. Hurry up and go take a shower." Lu Chen always waited for Shen Qiaoyue to finish showering before he showered himself, because he needed to help Shen Qiaoyue with her laundry.

"Coming." Hearing that it was time to take a bath, Shen Qiaoyue got up, changed into sandals, and grabbed her pajamas.

After putting the clothes in the washroom, a sudden idea flashed into my mind, and as I turned around...

"I'll shower with you today."

Lu Chen vowed to turn the tide and took the initiative.

Shen Qiaoyue originally thought so too, but she didn't expect Lu Chen to be so perceptive.

"OK!"

After the door to the water room closed, Lu Chen wrapped his arms around Shen Qiaoyue's waist and lowered his head to kiss her lips.

The method that couldn't be used in the room came in handy in the water room.

Nearly an hour later, Shen Qiaoyue, her face flushed, was carried out of the room by Lu Chen.

After carrying it back to the room, Lu Chen smiled with satisfaction.

Shen Qiaoyue felt her hands were sore and tired, and stared at Lu Chen in a daze.

"Sweetie~ Go to sleep, I'm going to do the laundry, I'll be right back." Lu Chen kissed Shen Qiaoyue's forehead.

Shen Qiaoyue slowly fell asleep.

Have a good night's sleep!

When I woke up in the early morning, it was drizzling.

Water droplets dripped from the roof tiles.

Anlude came over and said that because of the rainy weather, Jiang Jinyao wouldn't be coming today, and asked Anlude to bring some fruit as an apology.

Shen Qiaoyue was also unaware of the situation, but she was prone to sleepiness.

It wasn't until her back ached and her stomach growled with hunger that Shen Qiaoyue reluctantly turned over, only to find that the man beside her was no longer there.

As she gradually regained consciousness, Shen Qiaoyue touched the watch on the bedside table and glanced at the alarm clock.

It's past eleven o'clock.

"Oh no, Jiang Jinyao might already be here!" I changed my clothes and came out of the room.

They could smell the stir-fried dishes, but they didn't see Lu He or Jiang Jinyao.

Stepping out of the living room, I saw that it was raining, and the yard was full of pebbles, all of which were soaked.

The ticking sound continued.

A gentle spring breeze brought a refreshing coolness to Shen Qiaoyue.

"Lu Chen!" Shen Qiaoyue looked at the rain and wanted to run to the kitchen when it wasn't looking.

Hearing Shen Qiaoyue's voice, Lu Chen replied, "I'm cooking. Go brush your teeth first, and we'll be eating soon."

"Aren't An Lude and Jiang Jinyao coming?" Shen Qiaoyue looked up and covered her head, then took a few steps into the kitchen.

Maybe my brain isn't working properly. The rooftops on the side are connected; I just need to turn around and take a couple more steps to the left.

"An Lude said that Comrade Jiang Jinyao's stomach ailment flared up, and since it was raining, she didn't want to come over. She asked An Lude to buy a bag of fruit to let her know." Lu Chen said while cooking, glancing at the door and noticing raindrops on Shen Qiaoyue's hair. "Why are you in the rain?"

"I'm fine." Shen Qiaoyue patted her head, looked at the kitchen where only Lu Chen was, and asked, "Where's Lu He? Hasn't she gotten up yet?"

"Lu He went to the city with Aunt Wen this morning. She took a few sets of clothes and said she would stay for a few days to receive some nursing training," Lu Chen added.

Shen Qiaoyue was taken aback for a moment, then said, "Lu He just got back, why doesn't he rest for a bit!"

Just listening to it makes me feel tired.

“Studying medicine is inherently tiring. It would be better if you were a nurse, but Lu He’s ambition is to be a surgeon. There are no schools that specialize in this field right now, so he can only learn from scratch.” Lu Chen knew that being a doctor was not easy, and because of the environment, all the schools that offered this major had suspended classes.

Shen Qiaoyue knew that medical students nowadays basically learn about this in every class, and Lu He had never been exposed to it before. He could only slowly explore it, which would take a very long process.

"It's okay, we both have jobs and salaries anyway, we can support the child and Lu He. Don't put pressure on Lu He, let him learn slowly, he'll eventually master it." It's been six or seven years now, if he perseveres for three more years, Lu He should be able to go to university.

Those who studied medicine recovered after three years.

As long as Lu He studies hard with Wen Ru, she can definitely start as a nurse.

Lu Chen looked at Shen Qiaoyue and listened to what she said.

"You'll be very tired doing this, thank you, my wife." Lu Chen felt that Shen Qiaoyue was too understanding, and he didn't know how to express his gratitude to his wife.
