Chapter 708 Let's just forget about it.
Sun Miao has never had a boyfriend or been married, so she doesn't know anything about this.
Seeing that Qiao Xing hadn't moved, she asked in confusion, "Xingxing, why aren't you drinking?"
"I……"
Just as Qiao Xing was about to explain, Shen Boyan glanced at her cup and then stood up.
The remaining three looked at him with question marks on their faces.
Shen Boyan walked to the front, called a waiter over, and whispered something to her. The waiter looked like he understood.
Shen Boyan returned to his seat, and a short while later, the waiter brought over a glass of orange juice.
"Hello, ma'am, this is our courtyard's special milk orange juice, at room temperature. This gentleman just ordered it especially for you. Please enjoy."
Qiao Xing was a little surprised, but Shen Boyan explained, "You're pregnant, so you can't drink tea. Drink this instead."
Tao Yang said "Oh~" and joked, "I had forgotten about that. You're so observant. How do you know so much when you're unmarried and have no girlfriend?"
"Because it's common sense," Shen Boyan said calmly.
Why didn't you have this common sense before?
Shen Boyan ignored him.
Sun Miao belatedly realized what was happening and muttered, "So you can't drink tea..."
Qiao Xing said, "It's not that you can't drink it, but drinking a little is better for the child."
Sun Miao asked curiously, "Then why can't we drink tea? Tea isn't a stimulating beverage."
"Because tea contains caffeine, excessive tea consumption can cause pregnant women to become excited and suffer from insomnia. In severe cases, it can stimulate the fetus and cause fetal restlessness," Shen Boyan explained to Sun Miao in a serious tone.
Sun Miao looked like she had just learned something new, "So drinking tea has such serious effects on pregnant women? You should stop drinking it and drink orange juice instead."
Qiao Xing smiled helplessly, "It's not that exaggerated..."
Sun Miao said, "Bo Yan already said it, it's always right to trust him. Besides, you're pregnant now, so you should be extra careful. What if something really goes wrong?"
Tao Yang nodded. "Miaomiao is right."
"And let me tell you, Boyan usually doesn't care about these kinds of things, but since he's taken it to heart, it means he cares a lot. And what he cares about is usually not a small matter."
Tao Yang spoke casually, unaware that his words seemed somewhat ambiguous.
Fortunately, the waiter started serving the food, and everyone's attention was on the food, so no one paid attention to his words.
As long as Tao Yang and Sun Miao are at the dinner table, the atmosphere never gets cold.
Sun Miao has a lovely personality, and Tao Yang loves to joke around. The two of them chatter away, and even Qiao Xing gets caught up in their banter.
The orange juice tasted good, and Qiao Xing finished the whole glass without even realizing it.
Then, she started to get restless.
She is now over six months pregnant, and the baby is developing better and better in her belly. Some pregnancy symptoms will also follow.
For example, fetal movement, leg cramps, frequent urination, muscle swelling, etc...
Actually, there wasn't much orange juice in that glass, but nowadays, even if Qiao Xing drinks just a small glass of water, he'll go to the toilet two or three times.
"You guys eat first, I'm going to the restroom." Qiao Xing stood up apologetically.
Sun Miao asked with concern, "Do you want me to go with you?"
The restroom was just a short walk inside, and Qiao Xing felt bad troubling her, saying, "No need, I can go by myself."
"Then take it easy," Sun Miao said worriedly.
Sun Miao kept staring at her back until he made sure she had safely reached the restroom before turning his gaze away.
Looking at Qiao Xing, who was having some difficulty walking due to her pregnancy, Sun Miao sighed, "Pregnant women are truly amazing. I even miss my mother a little."
Tao Yang joked, "You'll become a great woman someday too."
"Stop! I'm still young, don't tell me such scary things!"
She could accept Sun Miao getting married and having a boyfriend.
But let's forget about having her give birth.
She doesn't even know how to support herself, so it's hard to imagine how she could raise such a small baby to adulthood.
Sun Miao couldn't help but get goosebumps just thinking about it. "Do you think a great woman can just become one? Even if I want to have a child, I need a reliable man. Haven't you seen the news reports about women getting prenatal and postpartum depression because of their husbands' lack of care and reliability? There are even some who have jumped off buildings. It's terrifying to think about."
"That's true. Raising a child is a matter for both people. It's definitely not enough if only one person is making the sacrifice. But you're still young. Finding a boyfriend is the most important thing. Having a child is too far away for you."
Sun Miao retorted, "No, making money should be the priority!"
Speaking of children, Tao Yang asked Shen Boyan with some curiosity, "Hey, Boyan, you're almost twenty-five this year, right? Have you thought about getting married and having children? Do you plan to have children after you get married?"
Sun Miao laughed and said, "You're asking about him? You've known him for a long time, don't you know what state he's in? If it weren't for what happened with He Yu, I would have suspected he was going to become a monk. How could he get married and have children!"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Tao Yang glared at Sun Miao. "What man doesn't want to settle down, start a family, and have a wife and children by his side?"
When Tao Yang first met Shen Boyan, he had the same thoughts as Sun Miao.
Especially after learning that Shen Boyan had no social life or hobbies outside of work, Tao Yang even suspected that Shen Boyan might not like women.
But now, Tao Yang doesn't think that way anymore.
Especially after Qiao Xing joined the Big Bad Wolf Company.
Sun Miao pouted, "But Boyan isn't the type to take the initiative. Have you forgotten how He Yu treated him before? Even so, he didn't get together with her. How could he possibly pursue a girl? Right, Boyan?"
Tao Yang disagreed, saying, "He's very attentive to Qiao Xing, isn't he? It's just that Qiao Xing isn't married yet, otherwise you see, Boyan would definitely pursue her!"
Shen Boyan was slightly taken aback.
Sun Miao blinked, as if thinking about something, and then nodded in agreement.
"Indeed, Qiao Xing is only a year or two older than Boyan. If they weren't married, they would be a really good match."
"Right? I think Boyan's standard for a girlfriend should be like Qiao Xing's, right, Boyan?"
Tao Yang nudged Tao Yang with his elbow and asked with a gossipy look on his face.
Sun Miao said, "I think Qiao Xing is really great. Boyan, when you look for a girlfriend in the future, look for someone like Qiao Xing. She has a good temper and knows how to be considerate. Such a person is very suitable whether you are looking for a girlfriend or a friend."
