Jiang Xiaoli said with a smile, "Grandpa, you must take good care of Grandma."

Grandpa Jiang said cheerfully, "Don't worry about us, taking care of yourself is the most important thing right now!"

The phone was back in Grandma Jiang's hands. "Little Pear, haha, Grandma is so happy!"

She then said, "Your mother still needs to rest and can't overwork herself. I'll have Afang take care of you!"

Just as Jiang Xiaoli was about to say that it wasn't necessary to go to so much trouble, Grandma Jiang insisted on the clubhouse, saying, "You can't refuse!"

Let me tell you, when your aunt and second aunt were pregnant with Xue, Tao, and Xiao Ning, it was Fang who took care of them. She's a real professional!

She thought for a moment and accepted the kindness, saying, "Grandma, thank you."

Grandma Jiang said cheerfully, "Grandma is so happy! Little Pear, take good care of yourself. Your grandpa and I will come back to China to see you after we finish taking care of things at home!"

"Okay, you two should also take care of yourselves," she instructed.

"Haha," Grandma Jiang assured, "Of course! I want to spend a few more years with my great-grandson!"

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Xiaoli shrugged. "Grandma said to ask Aunt Fang to come and take care of me."

Li Guizhi thought for a moment, "Isn't Afang the one who's a little chubby but has a very cheerful smile?"

She nodded and replied, "Yes, it's her. Grandma said that she took care of my aunt and second aunt when they were pregnant."

"This is great!" Li Guizhi patted the sofa happily.

She stood up. "Come on, I'll help you tidy up the guest rooms so that Afang can have a more comfortable stay."

Zong Jiayu quickly stopped her, "Mom, I'll take care of it when I get back tonight, so don't bother."

Li Guizhi thought for a moment and agreed, but she still kept muttering, "Make the guest room more cozy. It's not easy for them to come all the way back to China to take care of Xiaoli."

Jiang Xiaoli took her arm and said with a smile, "Mom, don't worry, we know."

The three of them had intended to have a pleasant chat, but unexpectedly, phone calls kept coming in one after another.

Just after hanging up the phone with the clingy Jiang Qingxue, her brother Jiang Chengle came straight to their house.

"Little Pear! You're so unfair!"

She raised an eyebrow. "Brother Le, what makes you say that?"

Jiang Chengle felt extremely wronged. "My mom told me to take good care of you. I was completely stunned. I didn't even know you were pregnant!"

Jiang Xiaoli pursed her lips. "Well, Brother Le, please calm down. I only found out this morning too..."

Jiang Chengle's "you heartless man" expression set off alarm bells in her mind. "Brother Le, you haven't told Xiaoyu yet, have you?"

"I didn't have time to come over. I just finished talking to my mom on the phone."

She breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good. Brother Le, you chat with A-Yu for a while, I'll go send a message to Xiao-Yu 'SOSO'."

Suddenly realizing that having too many relatives and friends was also troublesome, she decided to send messages to Hu Jingxin and the others as well.

During dinner, her close friends and family learned that she was pregnant.

Xu Feng was incredibly envious. "Sister-in-law, you're all set now! You'll be holding your grandson by the end of the year!"

Li Guizhi said with a smile, "Look at what you're saying, wouldn't Xiaoli's child call you and Jincheng 'Grandpa' and 'Grandma'?"

Thinking about it this way, Xiao Jincheng chuckled, "Haha, sister-in-law is absolutely right!"

Jiang Xiaoli added, "It won't be until the end of the year. The doctor said the due date is in mid-October, around the 14th or 15th."

Xu Feng exclaimed in delight, "October is perfect! It'll be too cold for the kids any later!"

After that, only Xu Feng and Li Guizhi remained at the dinner table, reminiscing about their parenting experiences from back then.

After dinner, Xiao Jincheng pulled Jiang Xiaoli aside and said, "Xiaoli, don't worry about the 'Jinghua Center' for now. Things will be much more stable here by the time it opens."

She chuckled softly, "Uncle Xiao, why do you all treat me like a porcelain doll? It's really not that exaggerated."

Xiao Jincheng disagreed, saying, "Pregnancy is no small matter. You can never be too careful. It's not like we don't have the means!"

Zong Jiayu hugged her and said, "Yes, Little Pear, just be a good girl and listen to me. I'll take care of things at the company."

Seeing how nervous they all seemed, she had no choice but to compromise, "Alright, I'll do as you say."

From the first day she confirmed her pregnancy, she enjoyed a happy life on leave at home.

In just two or three days, she completely adapted to this leisurely life where she could sleep until she naturally woke up and do whatever she wanted as long as she didn't go out for a stroll.

Especially after Afang arrived, she took full responsibility for Jiang Xiaoli's daily life.

Over the weekend, Hu Jingxin and her friends finally managed to escape from the trivial matters at school and visit her at home.

Seeing the setup at her home, Yan Chengcheng couldn't help but comment, "Xiao Li, I think even empresses and princesses received this kind of treatment when they were pregnant in the past."

Chang Yue laughed and said, "Yeah, Xiao Li, aren't you bored staying at home?"

Jiang Xiaoli poked a piece of apple with a toothpick. "At first, I also thought that staying at home would be very boring."

She drawled, "But—once you get used to it, it feels so good! Hahahaha!"

Hu Jingxin was so jealous she was practically oozing sourness. "Xiao Li, you're so annoying! We've been so busy at school lately."

Ren Zhiyi also sighed, "Yes, graduating early this year suddenly means you have to undergo several more assessments than last year. We wanted to come back to see you as soon as we heard you were pregnant, but we really couldn't find the time."

Jiang Xiaoli waved her hand, "It's okay, I'm perfectly fine at home. You guys should just focus on completing all the assessments according to the school's requirements and don't let it affect your graduation."
