She smiled sweetly at me.

I've finished speaking.

He took the initiative to come to her.

I called her name. "Qianqian!"

She turned around with a sweet smile.

How do you know my name?

My face flushed slightly.

"I...I...have been paying attention to you for a long time..."

Can I add your contact information?

She smiled, nodded, and gave me her contact information.

We started keeping in touch from that day on.

We've been in touch for over a year.

I communicate with her almost every day about things like studies, graduation thesis, and career prospects.

When I'm not busy, I go to her university, sit with her in the library while she reads, and take her out to eat some of her favorite foods.

We often go to the movies together, and we also go to amusement parks together.

I have always been by her side, witnessing her growth step by step.

Finally, after she turned 18, a birthday that held special significance for her,

I meticulously planned and prepared an extremely romantic candlelight confession feast.

When she stepped into the space surrounded by candlelight and flowers, her face was full of surprise, but she eventually nodded happily and agreed to come with me.

At that moment, my joy was overflowing. I excitedly hugged her tightly and couldn't help but kiss her fair and delicate cheek.

Since then, we've started dating frequently.

Before each date, I would rack my brains and painstakingly prepare all sorts of surprises to make her heart flutter, because I knew that only in this way could I make her feel how much I cherished this relationship.

However, there are two people who have always been a lingering shadow in my heart—Brother Qin and Jin Buhuan.

Especially Qin Ge, as far as I know, she met him when she was 19 years old.

Therefore, I went to great lengths to prevent them from having any further contact.

Whenever she needed to leave the campus, I would either drive her there myself or ask my reliable old friend, Lao Lin, to do it for her.

Not only that, but even her internship hospital was arranged properly only after my efforts.

And so, time slipped by quietly, and in the blink of an eye, she had turned 20.

So I decided to formally propose to her.

When I knelt on one knee, holding the ring in my hand, and said with deep affection, "Will you marry me?" she nodded without hesitation.

At that moment, I held her tightly in my arms and kissed her passionately and deeply.

However, because I was worried that Brother Qin might come to our wedding, I deliberately chose a time when Qin Shisheng was at his busiest and had no time to spare.

He took her and Yao Nan to the beautiful and charming Paris, France, where they held a lavish and spectacular wedding.

Flowers and balloons filled the air.

The moment she walked towards me in her wedding dress

My heart is filled with passion.

He held her hand and never let go.

She smiled genuinely, genuinely happy.

I asked her.

"Qianqian, do you love me?"

"Oh, Zhibai! You're so incredibly good to me! You're so warm-hearted and thoughtful! I love you so much!"

"If one day, a richer and more powerful man pursues you, would you be tempted?"

“Zhibai, how could you think of me like that? What does his money and power have to do with me? I’m not shallow.”

"That's good!"

...

On our wedding night, she became pregnant with my baby not long after.

She had trouble adjusting to morning sickness, so I took time off work to stay home with her.

I had just put her to sleep that day.

The doorbell rang.

I saw Brother Qin walking over with the documents.

It must be a company matter, so I dressed neatly and went out.

"Aren't you going to invite me in for a seat?"

I quietly made up an excuse.

"My wife is pregnant and just went to bed. She's been having morning sickness lately, and I'm worried about the smell in the house."

"So now that you've gotten married, you're neglecting the company altogether?"

"No, Brother Qin! You know me..."

"I want to retire! After all... I just want to live a peaceful and quiet life."

Qin Shisheng leaned against the door and snorted coldly. "Want to retire? Haven't I been good enough to you?"

"Brother Qin has always been good to me... but I just want to be with my wife, for life!"

Qin Shisheng was taken aback for a moment, then teased, "I'd like to see what kind of woman you like so much!"

"Bring him out tomorrow so I can meet Qin Shan!"

Lin Zhibai refused.

"Brother Qin! You're joking. My wife is heavily pregnant right now, so it's really inconvenient for her!"

Just then, a faint sobbing sound came from the room.

My heart skipped a beat, and I ran into the room filled with worry.

Yao Qian, her face streaked with tears and her hair covered in white milk powder, rushed out of there in a disheveled state.

Seeing her like this broke my heart.

I quickly stepped forward and pulled her into a tight embrace.

I originally wanted to reach out and wipe away the obvious stains on her face, but then the thought that Brother Qin was still here flashed through my mind, so I gently blew on her eyes instead, hoping to relieve her discomfort.

I asked softly, "Honey, what's wrong?"

Yao Qian sobbed as she answered, "Waaah... I accidentally bumped into the formula can by the bedside, and all the formula spilled all over me, it's everywhere..."

As she spoke, she cried even harder, and her beautiful big eyes became red and swollen.

Qin Ge, who was standing to the side, frowned slightly as he looked at Yao Qian covered in baby powder.
