Xu Jialan might never forget that ho...
Chapter 295 Does my wife have a stomachache?
In the bedroom.
Shen Xichuan stood by the bed, watching Xu Jialan pull up the quilt to cover the blushing face.
He looked at the protruding "little silkworm pupa" on the bed with helplessness and amusement.
"Be good, don't keep yourself bored."
He tugged at the quilt, but it didn't budge.
The man was really afraid that she would feel bored, so he sat down on the edge of the bed and pulled the quilt down again.
This time I can finally pull it down.
Their eyes met in mid-air.
Xu Jialan blinked, then looked away awkwardly.
Shen Xichuan's eyes were deep, with an imperceptible smile, "What's wrong?"
He slowly lowered his gaze, "Is your hand numb?"
Xu Jialan: "..."
She didn't say anything, and her ears turned redder.
Shen Xichuan smiled, his voice low and soft.
"Shall I rub it for you?"
"don't want."
Xu Jialan spoke subconsciously.
Shen Xichuan lowered his eyes and looked at her, his deep eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, making people feel flustered.
"I...I mean, no thanks, my hands aren't numb."
Xu Jialan couldn't resist his gaze.
After she finished speaking, she didn't realize what she had said for a moment.
Shen Xichuan's Adam's apple slid, "Really?"
"……yes."
Xu Jialan reacted and felt like crying but had no tears.
"Let me check."
Xu Jialan was stunned.
What to check?
The next second, her eyes widened slightly, “Shen Xichuan, you…”
The man lowered his long eyelashes, pressed his face against hers, and whispered, "You rewarded me just now, now it's my turn."
Xu Jialan's breathing accelerated dramatically.
Her fingertips tightly grasped the quilt, her whole body stiff.
The corners of Shen Xichuan's mouth curled up slightly in a nice arc, and his face gently rubbed her face.
The faint sandalwood scent on his body lingered in my nose.
It's like aged liquor, making you intoxicated.
There was a faint mist in Xu Jialan's eyes.
She had seen that slender hand casually holding a pen and signing its name on the sky-high contract.
I also saw how he patiently washed his hands and cooked soup day after day.
But now, he put aside his pride and dignity just to please her.
…
Xu Jialan opened his eyes slightly, his eyes hazy and confused.
Her mind was blank and she seemed to have not yet come to her senses.
Shen Xichuan lowered his head and kissed her forehead.
His eyes slowly moved downwards, and he saw a thin layer of sweat oozing out of the tip of his nose.
He kissed the tip of her nose soothingly.
Hoarse voice.
"Do you want to take a shower?"
Xu Jialan paused, and said softly, "Yes."
"good."
Shen Xichuan touched her head, then got up and went to the bathroom.
After a while, he came out and picked up Xu Jialan horizontally.
Xu Jialan hugged his neck habitually and glanced at him casually.
There was a trash can next to the bed.
A maid comes to clean up every morning.
So, it was originally empty.
Now……
Half the trash can was filled with shapeless white balls.
Xu Jialan: "..."
She may never be able to look directly at a trash can again.
…
This period of late pregnancy.
Xu Jialan didn't feel good at all.
My legs were so swollen that I could barely wear shoes.
She is now wearing Shen Xichuan’s slippers.
I would get cramps from time to time in the middle of the night.
When he had the first cramp at the beginning, Xu Jialan was afraid that he would wake up Shen Xichuan, so he endured it.
Later, Shen Xichuan noticed something.
The closer he got to his due date, the more he dared not sleep soundly.
When he had the second cramp, Xu Jialan turned over carefully, clutching the quilt with his hands, frowning, and trying to continue enduring it.
Shen Xichuan woke up when she turned over.
He saw how pale she looked and was so frightened that he almost fainted.
"Wife? Do you have a stomachache?"
Xu Jialan shook his head with difficulty, "My legs... hurt."
When Shen Xichuan heard this, he immediately reacted.
The work he did was not in vain.
The man lifted the quilt, carefully placed her legs on his legs, and then massaged her legs skillfully.
He had previously asked An Yuening for some books on leg studies.
He has always had a good memory, so it was not difficult for him to remember these locations.
"Are you feeling better?"
Xu Jialan's brows relaxed and he nodded, "Better now."
After the pain subsided, sleepiness began to set in.
She lifted her eyelids and glanced at the man. "I'm not cramping anymore. Go to bed. It's late."
He has to get up early for a meeting tomorrow.
During this period, he moved all his work back home.
You still have to attend the daily meetings.
Shen Xichuan hummed softly, “Okay, if you’re sleepy, go to sleep first.”
But he didn't stop.
Xu Jialan was so sleepy that he mumbled something and fell asleep again in a daze.
…
The next day.
Xu Jialan was awakened by thirst.
She opened her eyes and saw the man's chest.
There was also a strong big hand gently holding her waist.
Xu Jialan was stunned for a few seconds.
I didn't expect that he hadn't woken up yet.
When I came to my senses, I was extremely thirsty.
She had to quietly move the man's hand away.
As soon as she moved, Shen Xichuan thought her waist was uncomfortable, and the hand around her waist subconsciously massaged her.
Xu Jialan was stunned.
She raised her eyes and looked over.
The man's eyelashes were tightly closed, as if he was still dreaming.
But he held her waist gently.
Xu Jialan was silent for a moment.
"Husband." She called softly.
Shen Xichuan hummed, then opened his eyes, “What’s wrong? Is your leg cramping?”
As he said this, he was about to stand up and massage her cramped leg.
Xu Jialan grabbed his arm and said, "No, I'm thirsty."
"good."
Shen Xichuan responded and got out of bed.
He went out and poured a glass of warm water, came back, helped her stand up with his back, and fed the water to her lips.
Xu Jialan leaned in his arms and drank several sips of water from his hand.
Shen Xichuan turned his hand, wiped the water stains on her lips with the back of his hand, and then put the cup down.
"Do you want to continue sleeping?"
Xu Jialan looked at him, "What time is it?"
"Nine o'clock."
Shen Xichuan looked at the time.
"Don't you have to go to the meeting?"
He holds a regular meeting at nine o'clock every day.
Shen Xichuan helped her lie down and covered her with the quilt, “No, I’ll sleep with you for a while.”
Even if he is not here, there is still Shen Yankai.
It’s okay to miss a meeting once in a while.
…
After get off work, Chen Yankai came to Courtyard No. 1.
When he saw the faint darkness under Shen Xichuan's eyes, he was stunned for a moment, "Did you steal last night?"
As he said that, he handed over the contract in his hand.
Shen Xichuan glanced at him, reached out to take it, opened it, and looked at it lazily.
"I'm not a thief."
Shen Yankai shook his head, picked up the cup and took a sip of water, “You are not convincing at all like this.”
Since joining the fire department, Shen Xichuan's work and rest schedule has been extremely punctual.
I almost never stay up late.
Shen Xichuan paused and sighed, “She doesn’t sleep well every night.”
Shen Yankai was stunned for a moment, "Jia Lan? What happened to her?"
Shen Xichuan turned to the last page, picked up the pen, and signed his name in a flamboyant manner.
"Nothing, just some leg cramps from late pregnancy."
He said it calmly.
But when Shen Yankai heard it, and saw the darkness in his eyes, he knew it wouldn't be that simple.
After leaving No. 1 Courtyard and returning home, he asked An Yuening.
An Yuening replied calmly, "Every pregnant woman's legs will not only swell up in the late stages of pregnancy, but they'll also experience cramps from time to time. It's normal to have trouble sleeping."
Shen Yankai's eyebrows twitched when he heard this.
