Upon closer inspection, Nie Han realized, "Uncle is listening to the baby's movements, isn't he?"
Then he asked Chen Rou, "Did Baby kick you? Was she mean? Did she kick my uncle's head? Hehe!"
Nie Zhao is determined that when his baby is born, he will be the baby's best role model and mentor. Of course, he will love her but not spoil her, and he will be a loving father whom the baby both loves and respects.
Of course he will hug, kiss, and love the baby, but he would never let the little one kick anyone, especially him.
Moreover, he was always a dignified and unsmiling uncle in front of his nephews and nieces.
But Nie Han not only chuckled, her eyes seemed to say, "Uncle, you're not only a devoted husband, but you're also about to become a baby slave. You'll be just like other men, a wet nurse for the baby, and a horse to ride on."
Actually, Nie Han didn't say it; it was all in Nie Zhao's imagination.
What he hated most was Nie Rong's unbridled pampering of Nie Yao.
He had also imagined what it would be like to be with Baby. He would love her unconditionally, but he wouldn't spoil her, because he had personally witnessed Nie Yao being raised into a good-for-nothing who lacked both responsibility and courage. He couldn't raise a child that way.
However, in all things, don't look at what people say, just look at what they do.
Nie Zhao won't say much; he'll just use his best performance to convince everyone.
He stepped out of the elevator, immediately straightened his clothes, and said seriously, "Didn't you say you wouldn't be back until the day after tomorrow? Why are you back today?"
She added, "And you originally said you only wanted to take a one-month vacation, so how did you end up staying for four months?"
This is actually a form of controlling behavior, but he's not even aware of it himself.
Chen Rou had to make amends for him: "Jiayu and Jiajun are not here. If something happens, there will be no one here. But your uncle heard that you have been in a bad mood recently and want to stay for a while longer, so he did not disturb you."
If something unexpected were to happen to the couple, and Nie Han were still on vacation, by the time she returned, their 30,000 yuan fortune would likely be divided up by the board of directors, the law firm, and the bank. Wealthy families, after all, always have to be prepared for the worst.
Nie Zhao let Nie Han stay abroad for a few months, actually because he felt sorry for his niece and wanted her to have some fun.
But he said some harsh things, so naturally his niece didn't get close to him.
Taking Chen Rou's hand, Nie Han said, "Thank you, Xi Niang. You're the best to me."
She added, "Come on, look at the gift I bought for the baby."
Actually, we already have a lot of baby clothes and toys at home, but in our new home on the mountaintop, the clothes have to be washed repeatedly to remove the new smell and make them soft and skin-friendly, and the toys also need to be disinfected.
Chen Rou has been bored lately and spends all her time watching those kinds of things, but she's already tired of it.
But since Nie Han had bought a gift, she naturally had to take a look at it.
However, she said, "Your skin has gotten tanned and looks much firmer. Have you been working out every day these past few months?"
Nie Han said with a smile, "Colorado has plenty of sunshine, and I've recently become obsessed with running."
Nie Han used to be chubby but had fair skin. Recently, she has turned herself into a tan and has become much more toned. In Chen Rou's opinion, she was cuter with her chubby cheeks when she was still the same.
But girls have endless possibilities; they can dress up however they like.
However, Chen Rou felt that Nie Han's love-struck mind was still not over, and her heart was still with Song Yuanchao.
Because once the boss goes home, Song Yuanchao and his colleagues finish their work and go home.
But before leaving get off work, he naturally had to patrol the entire area, both indoors and outdoors. He happened to run into Song Yuanchao at the top of the stairs on the third floor. Song Yuanchao was quite surprised and delighted: "Miss is finally back. Hello, Miss."
Nie Han nodded slightly, as if deliberately trying to be polite, and then went upstairs.
Chen Rou is like that; she herself is rather indifferent to matters of the heart and doesn't pay much attention to other people's love lives.
But since her relationship with Nie Han was a bit special, and her pregnancy had given her a bit more of a motherly side, she casually asked, "Are you angry with Song Zai?"
Nie Han became even more deliberate: "No, I just don't care about him at all anymore."
Chen Rou knew the crux of the matter, so she asked, "Did he get married while he was back in his hometown?"
Chen Rou had never asked Song Yuanchao about this question, nor had she deliberately asked any of her comrades in her previous life, because she had more male comrades than female comrades, and whenever they were paired up for a mission, they were all comrades who had risked their lives for each other.
However, men often have unrealistic fantasies, such as whether their female comrades would like them, whether they would want to marry them, and then go home to have their babies and be their nanny. But Chen Rou did not have any of these fantasies.
Her habit was not to interfere in her male comrades' relationships, let alone inquire about their love lives. Over time, they developed a tacit understanding that they were just work partners, but did not share their personal lives.
Nie Han was actually just being presumptuous, and it was all speculation. When she asked Song Yuanchao, he didn't answer, so she took it as a tacit agreement. If Song Yuanchao really got married, then her unrequited love should naturally come to an end.
These past few months she's been traveling to unfamiliar places to relax and review her studies. Since her two younger brothers are both abroad, she plans to pursue a master's degree in Hong Kong. Of course, right now her mind is only on studying and working.
She said, "I think so. I asked him, and he didn't deny it."
This silly girl, since she didn't deny it, it means she didn't admit it either, so why did she go out and cause herself trouble again?
