"Jingchen, come with me to the kitchen for a bit."
"Um?"
"What 'uh-huh'? Come here for a second."
Yan Li was standing next to him.
Qi Jingchen stood up and followed Yan Li to the kitchen, but before he could even enter, she grabbed him.
"Fufu is pregnant now, so don't make her do any work, don't let her reach for things, okay?"
"What kind of work could she possibly do?"
The instructions were rather strange.
"Hey, I'm telling you this, you better behave yourself."
"Okay, okay, Ms. Yan Li, I understand. You're absolutely right."
Qi Jingchen turned to go back, but Yan Li grabbed him again.
"And another thing, you newlyweds, all that passion is burning bright, don't let things get out of hand, okay? Try to control yourselves, you know?"
"knew"
"Knowing isn't enough; you also need to be able to endure it."
"Can endure it"
When will this ever end?
"That's good, go back now."
"That's all?"
"What do you mean 'this is nothing'? These are major issues."
Such a grown son, yet he doesn't understand anything.
"Okay, I got it."
Why are you starting to ramble on?
Qi Jingchen turned around and strode back to the living room, where he sat down next to Qin Zifu and peeled the dragon fruit for her.
She watched mukbang videos to stimulate her appetite when she didn't want to eat. She saw other people eating and thought it would taste good, so she bought some. After tasting it, she found it was indeed delicious and bought another portion.
During dinner, we almost always catered to Qin Zifu's tastes.
I've noticed you tend to eat more when there are more people around.
"It seems so, or maybe it's because there are more people and more kinds of food, so each person only eats a couple of bites before the total amount increases."
Qi Jingchen nodded, regardless of the reason.
Send me the recipe for shrimp in tomato sauce later.
"Okay, I'll send you the sweet and sour pork ribs with tangerine peel too."
"Um"
Today, Qin Zifu ate a lot of stir-fried carrots. She never liked this dish before, but today she actually ate half a bowl of it.
When Yan Li was getting ready to go home that evening, she was still taking things out of the trunk with large and small bags.
"Don't bend over to pick things up when you go back, and don't lift heavy objects."
"Okay, Mom."
Yan Li gave many instructions.
"Mom, let's go back home, it's too cold."
Yan Li wasn't wearing a coat, just a cashmere shawl.
"Alright, you can go now. Let me know when you get home."
Okay, bye-bye.
Qin Zifu waved her hand and rolled up the car window.
I especially enjoy looking at the night view while driving.
"Go around in a circle?"
"all right"
The two drove around the Third Ring Road for a while before going home.
After taking a shower, Qi Jingchen, as always, applied lotions and creams to Qin Zifu's body.
"Baby"
"Um"
"Baby"
"What's wrong?"
"fine"
"..."
I just wanted to call her.
Qi Jingchen couldn't quite explain his current state of mind. Even though they were together every day, he still felt that way thinking about her, and it was incredibly difficult to accept.
He shook his head helplessly, wondering how he could be so intoxicated.
At the start of the new week, Qin Zifu thought about it for a while and decided to go back to the gynecology department. She just wanted to slack off because she had been too lazy lately.
Originally, according to the idea of taking care of Sui Xin, we should have simply let her take a two-year break, but Qin Zifu politely declined.
She didn't think it was that bad. Many working women wish they could work until their due date, working from nine to six every day, squeezing onto buses and subways. She was already much happier.
"I can sleep in again now, and I don't have to struggle to get up early every day anymore!"
"Hmm, you lazy pig."
"You said we both go to bed at the same time every day, so how come you can get up at the same time every day?"
"I'm used to it."
Qin Zifu just loves to stay in bed, especially in winter. Sometimes she's not even that sleepy, but she just likes to lie in bed.
But Qi Jingchen is different. He usually gets up immediately when it's time, without dawdling. Qin Zifu calls him a ruthless person.
"Do you want to get up?"
"Time to get up, aren't we going to a banquet?"
"Okay, I'll pick out some clothes for you later."
"good"
When it came to choosing clothes, the two of them got stuck again.
"Baby, wear something warmer, it's already December."
"Brother, you've attended so many banquets, have you ever seen anyone dressed this thickly?"
Qin Zifu held up a large sweater and looked at Qi Jingchen; it was the one he had just chosen.
"..."
"It really isn't that bad. From one underground parking garage to another, it doesn't even go outside. This dress is fine; I'll just grab a coat."
In the end, Qi Jingchen compromised. She had the freedom to choose what to wear, so her clothes had to be hers.
Then Qin Zifu chose a pair of shoes with a 3cm heel to match.
Life is a series of compromises.
Qi Jingchen frowned as he looked at the rows of high heels in the shoe cabinet. Who invented high heels?
Qin Zifu really likes wearing high heels. She is 1.66 meters tall, 20 centimeters shorter than Qi Jingchen. She thinks the height difference is okay, but for some reason, she always feels a strong sense of pressure from him next to her, and always wants to wear something taller.
It's like wearing taller clothes instantly gives you an aura of 2.8 meters.
"Can't we just go there directly?"
"Yes, go stay there for a while, come back when you're tired, and we can meet up separately later."
"Oh... I don't recognize him."
He went abroad a long time ago, when you were still young. He was there for our wedding, but you probably didn't notice.
"...The way you're saying that makes it sound like there's a huge age difference between us."
"Isn't that right? We're about the same age. His family went abroad to work when he was in junior high school."
"..."
I really don't know them; they're too young, there's nothing I can do.
Qi Jingchen no longer minds that he is older than Qin Zifu, and he even brings it up himself.
What do I have to mind? Even with the age difference, I'll still become his wife, won't I?
An hour later, Qin Zifu and Qi Jingchen arrived at the banquet venue.
"Shuyu said she's arrived too."
"Walk slowly"
Qi Jingchen wrapped his arms around Qin Zifu's waist, his large hand resting lightly on her lower abdomen.
"Hi, bro"
Qin Zifu looked ahead and thought carefully for a moment. She had a vague impression of him because he was quite handsome.
Welcome back
Qi Jingchen released Qin Zifu and hugged Leng Ci.
"Qin Zifu, my wife, this is Leng Ci."
"Hello"
Qin Zifu greeted Leng Ci.
"Hello, please come in."
"Let's go over there."
Qi Jingchen took Qin Zifu to Gu Di'an's place.
"Fufu, here."
Tang Shuyu wore a pink dress today, which is her usual style. Qin Zifu wore a black velvet dress. She is still quite free to choose clothes now and doesn't need to specially choose loose ones because her belly hasn't grown big yet.
"Shall we go over there? Xingran is over there."
Tang Shuyu whispered in Qin Zifu's ear.
Cheng Xingran just messaged me saying she's on the other side.
"Shuyu and I will go sit over there for a while."
"Go ahead, but walk slowly."
"Know"
"Xingran, it's been a long time."
"Yes, I've been so busy lately. Please sit down."
Cheng Xingran moved a little further inside and invited the two of them to sit down.
Tell me about the rumors that you're getting married soon.
"...and it's just a legend; I only heard about it from legends."
"I reckon only that idiot Ling Zhiyi took it seriously."
"What happened?"
"It's hard to say, but it's definitely not true; it's a matter between the parents."
"It's good that it's not true, I was afraid you'd get married in a rush."
"No, I'm not that optimistic. How's Fufu doing lately?"
"I'm fine, I have no reaction."
"That's good"
