Chapter 140 The Courier of Love

Weekends are always particularly lazy, and for Su Nian, who is in the second trimester of pregnancy, it is a rare opportunity to put aside all trivial matters and stay in bed peacefully.

She lay on her side, one hand resting lightly on her swollen belly, her breathing even and long, even her brows relaxed - she looked so soundly asleep, as if she had entered the "extra-long standby mode exclusive to pregnant women", and she had no time to care about the little guy in her belly who always liked to get up early for morning check-ups and practice "fetal movement Tai Chi".

The bedroom was quiet, with only the occasional ticking sound of the wall clock's hands, as if silently judging this "sleeping in competition".

Si Yan had woken up long ago. He sat on a low stool beside the bed, his fingertips gently touching Su Nian's belly, his voice softer than a feather: "Baby, good boy, it's rare for Mom to have a good night's sleep. Let's do a gentle morning exercise today, okay? Let Mom recharge her energy. When she wakes up, Dad will tell you a story, okay?"

Si Yan's movements and voices were as quiet as a "stealth agent", for fear of disturbing his sleeping wife.

Perhaps feeling the gentle "bribe" from his father, the little fellow, who had been squirming gently, actually quieted down, as if to say, "Okay, I'll go back to sleep first."

Su Nian was immersed in a sweet dream throughout the morning prenatal education and knew nothing about it, completely missing the "underground negotiation between father and son".

During this period, Su Nian's belly was like a ball that was quietly inflated, getting rounder day by day. Her body became much heavier than before, and she would get tired easily after walking a few steps. She looked very "pregnant" and her movements were a little cute.

Si Yan saw it and felt pain in his heart, so he simply stopped his weekend consultation work at Jishidiang and stayed at home to accompany her.

From "Dr. Si" to "Su Nian's exclusive caregiver" in seconds, Si Yan does laundry, cooks, accompanies walks, and massages legs. His business scope is fully covered and his service quality is rated five stars.

Not long after, there was a very light knock on the door downstairs, followed by the sound of the password door being opened - it must be Zhang Minghua.

Knowing that the young couple loved to sleep in on weekends, she rushed to the old house before going to work to deliver the bird's nest and medicinal soup that she had been cooking since dawn. She was truly a "love courier who never rings the doorbell."

She walked into the kitchen quietly, placed the thermos on the dining table, and put the fresh fruits she brought into the refrigerator without making any sound. She left quietly a moment later without even meeting the young couple. She kept her achievements and fame to herself, and was simply "the strongest invisible person in the logistics department."

Such things have become commonplace.

Whenever it was the weekend, the old house would always find a way to send them some nourishing soups, fresh vegetables or fruits. Sometimes Zhang Minghua would come over, and sometimes Grandpa Si would ask the aunt at home to run errands, as if they had started a "weekend supply blind box" event.

They always put their things down and leave, and when the couple wakes up, they can see this "surprise".

Every time Su Nian thought of this, her heart felt warm. She was taken care of so carefully by her in-laws without disturbing their lives at all. She was deeply moved by this generous love and just the right amount of care.

When Su Nian woke up, it was almost nine o'clock in the morning.

She stretched, slowly sat up, touched her belly, and greeted the baby with a smile: "Little guy, Mommy is awake. Did you listen to Daddy this morning? Did you take the opportunity to practice boxing?"

—Mom, you don’t know whether we’ve practiced or not? It seems like our relationship has faded!

After washing up, she went downstairs in her loose home clothes. Si Yan, who was busy at his desk, heard the noise and immediately put down the documents in his hand. He stood up and walked over to her. He naturally took her hand and said with concern: "Are you awake? I'll go heat up some bird's nest for you and fry you some soft-boiled eggs."

Su Nian nodded, his eyes falling on the desk - there were spread out several documents about foreign universities, each with a handwritten note from Si Yan, marking the university's advantageous majors, application requirements, and even the local climate and accommodation conditions. It was so detailed that it was comparable to the "Dianping.com of the Study Abroad World".

It can be seen that most of the information has been sorted out, clearly classified and easy to understand at a glance.

Her heart moved slightly, and she looked up at Si Yan, her eyes a little warm: "So soon... Is it almost done?"

Si Yan smiled and ruffled her hair, his voice gentle: "It's almost sorted out. I'll summarize it and present it in a table, which will be clearer.

Once you've made your selection, we'll prepare to apply and help you reach the top of the fashion pyramid in fashion design—it's not just a dream."

In the afternoon, the two compared the advantages and disadvantages of several international universities that Si Yan had sorted out in the morning, and made a preliminary selection based on Su Nian's needs.

——They chose the French ESMOD International Fashion Design School, which is referred to as the "Whampoa Military Academy of the fashion industry", which sounds very powerful.

I plan to seek Chen Ran’s opinion in the evening. After all, there is a “senior review committee member” at home.

In the evening, as soon as I walked out of the elevator, I smelled the familiar aroma of food - the sweet aroma of sweet and sour pork ribs mixed with the fresh aroma of mushroom soup, which made my stomach wriggle and my "taste buds expressed great longing."

The door was not closed tightly. Su Hong heard footsteps and came out to greet them with a smile: "Si Yan Nian Nian is here, come in quickly, the mushroom soup is freshly stewed, and I put less salt on it, it's just right for Nian Nian to drink."

Chen Ran also walked over from the living room. "How is it? My daughter, you have to be more careful at work from now on. You are a 'key protected person' now."

"Dad, I'm fine, don't worry!" Su Nian thought of her mother's shift in focus yesterday. "Mom, you were unreasonable last night, weren't you? I volunteered to work overtime, it has nothing to do with my dad!"

When Chen Ran saw that his daughter had vindicated him, he smiled and said nothing.

Su Hong had said everything she needed to say yesterday, so she didn't want to continue the conversation today. "Okay, got it."

A table full of dishes had already been set on the table, all of which were Su Nian's favorite flavors.

Su Hong kept putting food into her bowl and reminded her, "Drink more soup. It contains some mild ingredients, which is good for the baby."

Halfway through the meal, Si Yan put down his chopsticks and looked at Chen Ran and Su Hong. His tone was gentle but clear: "Mom and Dad, Nian Nian and I have already chosen a school abroad, ESMOD International Fashion Design School in France. It has always been her dream to study design in France."

Su Nian nodded, with a hint of anticipation in her eyes: "I looked at the school's information, and the curriculum is very much in line with my ideas, and the artistic atmosphere there is also very strong."

Upon hearing this, Chen Ran put down the spoon in his hand and a relieved smile appeared on his face. "ESMOD? Well, I know this school. It's very famous in the field of fashion design. You made a good choice. It's obvious that you have done your homework seriously."

——It shouldn’t be a random selection by drawing lots!
