Chapter 44
It was already afternoon when they moved back to their residence. Xia Ruoan let Leng Zexi go to the bathroom and went back to her room to rest. She was feeling a little uncomfortable due to morning sickness and drowsiness after pregnancy.
She only eats vegetables for lunch because other foods make her feel nauseous and uncomfortable.
Leng Zexi was very worried about her condition. If she continued like this, not only would the adults suffer, but the three babies in her belly might also be affected. He had to find a way to solve this problem.
"Mom, um... do you know what pregnant women should eat when they have morning sickness?" After watching Xia Ruoan fall asleep, Leng Zexi walked out of the room and called his mother to ask.
Ouyang Lan also sent a message to inquire, while he sat at the table, turned on the computer, and began to browse the relevant information.
"Is it serious?" Gu Yutong was also worried after hearing his son's description.
"It's quite serious. Only vegetables are edible in the lunch. Other meat dishes make me feel sick." Leng Zexi replied anxiously.
"Prepare some sour food for An An to eat from time to time, and give her some yogurt. Prepare lighter food. Ask her what she likes to eat. If she can eat it, buy more for her." Gu Yutong carefully instructed her son.
Leng Zexi nodded seriously and replied, "I understand, Mom."
However, Gu Yutong looked at him with some concern and couldn't help asking, "Can you really take good care of her? Otherwise, you should move back and we can all take care of her together."
Leng Zexi answered firmly, "Mom, I can take care of her. If she doesn't know how to do it, I will learn it. You don't have to worry. The main thing is that she is also rushing to finish her graduation thesis. This place is close to her school and it is convenient for her to go to school. Our place is too far away."
Gu Yutong thought about it and felt that what his son said made sense, but he still felt uneasy.
Leng Zexi seemed to see his mother's concerns and continued to explain: "Besides, she will be stressed when she moves over. She is very cautious with me now. If she lives with you, I'm worried that she won't dare to go out."
After saying that, he laughed softly.
Hearing this, Gu Yutong couldn't help but frowned. After thinking for a moment, he sighed helplessly and agreed.
She understood that what her son said did make some sense, and that they should respect young people's lifestyles and choices.
She could only ask Leng Zexi to take good care of An An.
"Then I'll let Sister Rong come over to cook for you and take care of you. Don't you have an apartment upstairs from where she lives? You can stay in Aunt Rong's guest room then." Gu Yutong was still worried that they wouldn't eat well.
"Don't refuse yet. You see, cooking and cleaning are things that need to be done by others. When the time comes, you can do it yourself. An An will really sit there by herself and not move. Do you think she will be comfortable?"
Leng Zexi hesitated when he heard this.
An An is definitely not the type of person who would just watch him do it without taking any action herself.
"Okay, I'm relieved when Sister Rong goes to take care of you. It's settled. I won't disturb you. She'll clean up after you go out, and you'll have hot meals when you get home. Don't you still have to help An An grow vegetables? You can cook when you get home. You don't want to let An An and the baby in her belly starve, do you?"
Gu Yutong still persuaded.
"Okay, Mom, please ask Aunt Rong to come over. We will really have to trouble her when the time comes." Leng Zexi no longer refused.
"Okay, okay, I'll tell her later that your aunt Rong is the descendant of the imperial chef, and An An will definitely like the food she cooks." Gu Yutong hung up the phone and went to talk to someone.
Leng Zexi was also stunned when he saw the message sent by Ouyang Lan.
"I'm asking you this time, why are you so serious? It's not like your style to organize so many things." Leng Zexi asked in a voice message.
Ouyang Lan also smiled bitterly after hearing this. How could it be the same?
The target this time is Xia Ruoan, Mu Shen's sister-con, and she got pregnant because of his negligence. If she gets pregnant and becomes haggard, it would be strange if Mu Shen let him go later. Isn't he making amends?
Now he just hopes that Mu Shen doesn't come back so soon. It would be best if he waits until the child is born and Xia Ruoan falls in love with Leng Zexi.
"Ouyang, why are you sighing here?" Liu Chen moved his shoulders and walked over. "I rushed to perform two operations this morning. I'm really getting old. I actually feel a little tired."
"No, Brother Liu, you're just getting started. You're just over 30, which is the right age for you to be independent." Ouyang Lan chuckled.
Liu Chen opened the thermos and took a sip of wolfberry tea. "Tell me, why were you sighing just now? Is there anything that you, Doctor Ouyang, can't solve?"
"I hope Mu Shen doesn't come back so soon. It would be best if he comes back after two years." Ouyang Lan looked at him and said.
Liu Chen heard the corner of his mouth twitching, "You know?"
"You are still so afraid of him. But let alone you, I was also quite scared when I saw him. He is worthy of being Mu Shen who dares to snatch people from the hands of the god of death." Liu Chen nodded in agreement.
"But he has been gone for five years and has not returned. That's incredible. The environment there is bombed every day. It's hard for him to survive."
Liu Chen particularly admired Mu Shen for this. He was away for a year at first, and it took him more than three months to recover after he came back. He was extremely fortunate that he grew up in a peaceful country, or in other words, in a strong country, where there were people who carried the burden for them.
"What do you mean? What do I know?" Ouyang Lan suddenly had a bad feeling.
"Don't you know that Mu Shen is coming back, and are you worried that he will call you stupid later, so you're sighing?" Liu Chen looked at him puzzled.
"The dean said at the meeting the day before yesterday that Mu Shen would be coming back. I heard that he was going to take over the position of vice dean. In fact, it's just a transition. He will be the dean sooner or later."
Ouyang Lan was stunned. What did he hear? Mu Shen was coming back.
"I didn't know he was coming back. I didn't go to the meeting the day before yesterday, and no one told me."
"Oh my God, it's over. I'm dead this time." Ouyang Lan was really about to cry.
"What's wrong with you?" Liu Chen looked at him and felt something was not right.
Ouyang Lan told the story of Xia Ruoan with a wry smile.
When Liu Chen heard that he was choked by the wolfberry water he was drinking, he looked at Ouyang Lan and was speechless, and patted him on the shoulder.
He sighed and said, "May the best for you." Liu Chen didn't dare to give him any advice after hearing this. "It seems that he will be back at the end of this month at the latest. Stay away from me in the future. Don't stand too close to me. I'm worried that his war against you will involve me."
"I have parents to take care of, children to take care of, and I need to find a wife to have children. My family has three generations and they are counting on me to carry on the family line." Liu Chen said and ran away.
