When the car drove back to Bixi Bay, Lu Anning noticed the subtle changes in his home before he even got out of the car.
There were many more bonsai trees in the yard that she liked, and even a sunshade was added next to the swing. Tang Jingyuan still didn't let her leave on her own, and personally carried her into the house.
As soon as she entered the door, Lu Anning smelled the aroma of chicken soup wafting from the kitchen. She had also changed her slippers into softer and more comfortable non-slip shoes, similar in style to her previous ones.
All the corners and edges of the house are now covered.
When Aunt Wang heard the noise, she hurried out to greet them with a smile on her face.
"Master San, Madam, you're back. As you instructed, the house has been covered up in every nook and cranny, and the stairs have been replaced with non-slip carpets. Madam's belongings have been put away, and a new batch of skincare and daily necessities suitable for pregnant women will be delivered soon."
Mother Wang remembered something and quickly ran to the kitchen. When she came out, she was holding a bowl of freshly stewed bird's nest.
"I just cooked this, ma'am. Please enjoy it first. Lunch is being prepared. Or if you want something to eat, you can tell me and I'll prepare it for you."
Lu Anning was held and sat on the sofa. Seeing Wang Ma busying around, he quickly called her.
"Auntie Wang, you don't have to be so nervous. Just be like before."
"How can that be possible! Mr. Tang knows you're pregnant and is already on his way here. This is such an important matter, we can't be careless."
"Auntie Wang is right! If you have any requests, just ask. You're the boss in the family now. Also, if you feel uncomfortable, you must tell me immediately, okay?"
Lu Anning smiled helplessly: "It's just pregnancy, how can you be so delicate. Don't be too nervous!"
Tang Jingyuan's gaze fell on Lu Anning's lower abdomen, and he gradually tightened his grip on her hand.
"Ningning, I still feel like I'm dreaming. I want to discuss something with you, is that okay?"
Lu Anning was very surprised to hear Tang Jingyuan speaking to her so cautiously for the first time.
"What's the matter? Tell me!"
Tang Jingyuan took a deep breath and asked, "Can you give birth to this child?"
Lu Anning was stunned: "What did you say?"
"I know, when you married me, we agreed not to have any more children. But now I regret it. What should I do? I want you to give birth to our child, okay? I promise, it's just this one."
"Are you sure you want to have this baby?"
"As long as you agree to give birth to this child, I will agree to any request you have."
Lu Anning was a little confused. She had always thought that it was Tang Jingyuan who didn't want a child.
"Xiao Rui's side..."
"Xiao Rui told me a long time ago that he wanted to have a brother or sister, but I never told you. You agreed so readily at the time. I know you don't like children. But I also want a child of our own!"
"Who told you that I don't like children? Didn't you say you didn't want children because you were worried that Xiao Rui would be wronged? I always thought it was you who didn't want children."
For a moment, the two looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
For so long, Tang Jingyuan had been bearing the pressure of giving birth alone, but he didn't expect that it would all be a misunderstanding in the end.
"I've never wanted children. To be exact, I only want to have children with you."
The confusion in Lu Anning's mind dissipated. She thought about how worried she had been all the way and even thought about how to persuade Tang Jingyuan to keep the child. She pushed him away in a bad mood.
"When you were in the hospital, you looked so reluctant. I thought you were planning to arrange for a doctor to kill me..."
Before she could utter the last word, Tang Jingyuan quickly covered her mouth.
"The baby is spiritual. It's fate that he can come to see us at this time. Don't say bad things in the future. Remember?"
Lu Anning nodded obediently: "Then why didn't you react at all when you were in the hospital?"
Tang Jingyuan coughed twice to hide his embarrassment: "I'm going to be a father soon, so of course I have to be more steady in doing things."
He naturally wouldn't tell Lu Anning that he was too nervous and worried that he wasn't doing well enough, so he didn't know how to react. Even now, he still felt like he was dreaming.
"Xiao Rui also knows that he is going to be a big brother, so he will come back to see you tonight."
"You told him?"
"Such good news, of course we have to let everyone know. He has been looking forward to the arrival of his younger siblings for seven generations!"
While chatting, Lu Anning remembered a very important question.
"Haven't we been taking safety precautions all along? Then...why did we still get infected? How did the doctor explain it?"
"Safety measures can't guarantee a 100% success rate, which is why I say this child is destined to be with us."
After hearing this, Lu Anning also began to look forward to this child.
News of the pregnancy spread quickly. Near noon, the old man, who rarely came down the mountain, came to see Lu An Ning in person with a cart full of things. After waiting for so long, he finally got the good news. Before he even saw him, Lu An Ning could already hear the old man's laughter.
The servants brought in large and small packages of supplements and ingredients one by one, and Aunt Wang was busy putting the things into the warehouse. Lu An Ning stood up to greet him, but the old man quickly stopped him.
"Sit! Sit! You mustn't move now. I'm just happy and brought some things to see you."
The old man looked around the house carefully and nodded with satisfaction.
"Jingyuan is quite considerate. An Ning, you should take good care of yourself and let others take care of those things! Right now, you and the child are the most important things."
Lu Anning didn't dare to go against the old man's kindness and agreed to all his requests.
The old man was very happy and sent a nutritionist and a servant. He said that Aunt Wang would be too busy to handle it alone and that she would need more people to take care of her during the day.
He felt that this was not enough, so he took out two more documents and handed them to Lu Anning.
"This is the share transfer agreement I had my lawyer write! Five percent of the Tang family's assets as a gift for the unborn child. And this street is for you."
"Grandpa, this is too valuable. I can't accept it."
"Those possessions aren't that valuable. You deserve them!"
Lu Anning looked at Tang Jingyuan, but Tang Jingyuan accepted it generously.
"This is a little gift from grandpa to the baby, just keep it."
Lu An Ning had no choice but to accept it and asked the old man to stay at home for a while, but the old man refused.
"I'm used to living in the mountains, and my lifestyle is different from yours, so I won't disturb you. If you need anything, just tell Jing Yuan and let him do it. If he dares to make you angry, tell Grandpa, and Grandpa will deal with him personally."
"Grandpa, how can I bear to do that!"
