Qin Yushen's eyes deepened, then he smiled, "Wife, you're right. How can we waste such a precious time?"

After saying that, he lowered his head and kissed her, while simultaneously lifting her up with one hand.

His strong arms easily held her captive in his embrace.

While enduring his kiss, Lin Xiaoxiao pinched his arm, her eyes lighting up.

"Husband..." she pushed his face.

Qin Yu bit her lip as if punishing her, and said resentfully, "Baby, how can you be distracted in a situation like this?"

Lin Xiaoxiao, melted by his calling her "baby," couldn't help but snuggle up to him, muttering, "Honey, your figure seems even better now."

Qin Yushen did not reply to her.

After such a long period of high-intensity training, I've gotten quite tanned, not to mention my physique.

"Something's not right." Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly sat up in bed, pushed away the man on top of her, and looked serious.

Qin Yushen, who was pushed and fell backward, quickly steadied himself and pulled her into his arms. "What's wrong?"

It's really unpleasant to be interrupted at a crucial moment.

But Qin Yushen was more worried about Lin Xiaoxiao's condition; he rarely saw her with such a serious expression.

It's as if something enormous and intractable has happened.

Lin Xiaoxiao hugged his neck tightly, her voice trembling slightly, "Husband, I, I think it's been more than two months since I last had my period."

"Hmm?" Qin Yushen was puzzled.

At first, he didn't understand what she meant, but then he saw Lin Xiaoxiao touching her belly intentionally or unintentionally, and he suddenly realized something.

He knelt on the bed, his hands trembling as he placed them on her stomach. "Wife, what...what do you mean?"

He looked at Lin Xiaoxiao nervously, his eyes brimming with anticipation.

Lin Xiaoxiao, who felt like the sky was about to fall, saw that he was even more helpless than she was, and immediately laughed.

It eased some of the tension in my heart.

"I don't know if that's the reason yet." Lin Xiaoxiao touched her stomach. "We'll have to see a doctor first to find out."

Qin Yu nodded deeply, "I'll take you to the hospital when we arrive in Guangzhou tomorrow."

If it weren't for the fact that they had to take a ferry to the inland area early tomorrow morning, he would have loved to take Lin Xiaoxiao there first thing tomorrow morning.

The mere thought that his wife might be carrying a baby made Qin Yushen so nervous and excited that he couldn't sleep, and he was so excited that he wanted to get up and do three hundred push-ups.

After hearing his arrangement, Lin Xiaoxiao disagreed, saying, "Let's go back to Beijing to go to the hospital. Dr. Liang can't be left alone. He'll be fine once we get to Beijing."

By then, they will have completed their tasks and have plenty of time.

When faced with personal interests, national interests always take precedence over everything else.

Understanding this principle, Qin Yushen did not refute it, but simply held Lin Xiaoxiao's hand tightly.

He helped her lie down carefully. "Go to sleep. Leave everything else to me. Don't worry about it."

He knew what she was worried about; it was simply her safety along the way.

Qin Yushen is now only grateful that his superiors sent them over, otherwise Lin Xiaoxiao would have had to worry even more.

And this was while there was a baby inside her.

Just thinking about that scene made Qin Yushen's heart tighten.

For the first time, I felt a sense of resistance towards Lin Xiaoxiao's profession.

He knew he shouldn't think like that, but he couldn't help it; he couldn't control himself.

He knew she was very powerful, so powerful that few could rival her, but anything could happen unexpectedly.

He couldn't be by her side often, and he wouldn't know immediately if she was unwell or injured.

Where he couldn't see her, she might be like a wounded little animal, licking her wounds alone.

Qin Yu stretched out his long arm and pulled Lin Xiaoxiao into his arms, holding her tightly, only then did he feel a sense of security.

Lin Xiaoxiao had no idea what he was imagining, or if it was just her imagination. She had only just begun to suspect that she was pregnant, but now she was starting to feel sleepy.

I yawned and drifted off to sleep.

She hadn't had a good dream in a long time.

On a cruise ship, you can't even sleep too soundly; you have to be constantly aware of the risks on board and stay vigilant.

She could only sleep so soundly without any worries in Qin Yushen's arms.

Qin Yushen placed his hand on her abdomen, and a hint of tenderness flashed across his face as if he were thinking of something.

The next day, the group departed from the ferry terminal for the inland region.

Wen Mo was the one seeing them off at the port. He was wearing a crisp police uniform, and his gaze paused for a moment when he saw Lin Xiaoxiao.

Lin Xiaoxiao leaned against Qin Yushen, and the two were acting somewhat intimately, which made Wen Mo glance at Qin Yushen a few more times.

He's a rather upright man.

Wen Mo thought this to himself, but his face betrayed a hint of displeasure.

He couldn't quite put his finger on what was wrong with him, but he just didn't like the look of Qin Yushen.

The two were like natural enemies, with no reason, just a simple hostile relationship.

With many more escorts along the way, Lin Xiaoxiao finally breathed a sigh of relief. Zhu Yuqi was injured and went to rest as soon as she boarded the ship.

Once they reached the inland area, she would part ways with Lin Xiaoxiao and change her route from Guangzhou to Jiangcheng to handle some matters.

Hearing that she was going to Jiangcheng on business, Lin Xiaoxin felt a little guilty.

I wondered if she was going to retrieve those things from the well in that abandoned courtyard.

I'm so sorry about that.

Those things were already hers to keep.

There's absolutely no reason to take it out again.

"Be careful." When the ferry arrived at the inland port, the port arranged for several cars to pick them up and take them to Guangzhou. Qin Yushen noticed that the deck was a bit high and reached out to Lin Xiaoxiao.
