Upon seeing this, Yu Yuehui's heart skipped a beat. She quickly stepped forward, took his hand, and whispered with a trembling voice and a hint of guilt, "I'm sorry!"
Upon hearing this, Xie Yan abruptly stopped in his tracks. "???"
His face was filled with disbelief, and he wondered if he was hallucinating.
He slowly turned his head, continuing to look at Yu Yuehui with a cold face. In fact, his heart was already churning with turmoil, and he could only try his best to control his emotions and pretend to be nonchalant.
When Yu Yue saw him turn around, she mustered her courage and said sincerely again, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that to you today. It was my fault. I know you meant well, and I shouldn't have misunderstood you."
Xie Yan suppressed the urge to curl his lips into a smile and tried to keep his tone calm as he said, "I accept your apology, but this kind of thing can't happen again."
Yu Yue nodded frantically, like a child who had made a mistake, "Yes, yes, there will definitely not be a next time, I promise."
Xie Yan then nodded very reservedly.
Seeing that Xie Yan seemed to have been appeased, Yu Yuehui's face showed a hint of joy. She pulled Xie Yan to the table and said with a smile, "Look, this whole table is full of your favorite foods. So, can you completely forgive me now?"
Xie Yan looked at the table full of delicious food, including steaming hot stir-fried cured pork with green peppers. The bright green of the green peppers and the golden yellow of the cured pork complemented each other, and the aroma was irresistible.
There's also the bright red and tempting Mapo Tofu, garnished with a few scallions, which looks absolutely mouthwatering.
The spicy sausages on the side also have a unique style, emitting a distinctive aroma.
Not to mention his favorite grilled fish.
He couldn't help but suppress the drool that was about to spill from his mouth, and said with feigned reluctance, "Alright! Since you're being so sincere in your apology this time, I'll forgive you!"
"But!" Xie Yan deliberately dragged out his words.
Yu Yuehui's heart, which had just settled down, was suddenly gripped again as she nervously watched Xie Yan.
"There must be no next time!" Xie Yan said sternly.
Yu Yuehui nodded quickly, like a chick pecking at rice, "Yes, yes, don't worry, it won't happen again. This time, Mom found out about it, and you don't know how badly she scolded me!"
Xie Yan glanced at her sideways and said with a hint of teasing, "Did your mother scold you awake?"
Yu Yuehui nodded with a face full of shame.
Xie Yan snorted coldly, "Mother is so wise! Unlike some people..."
Yu, who was waiting for someone to return, quickly handed him the chopsticks, saying, "Eat up, you must be hungry."
Xie Yan took the chopsticks but didn't eat. Instead, he looked at the fish, which looked incredibly fresh, and said, "You didn't go and get fish again, did you?"
Yu Yue nodded.
Xie Yan sighed, took her hand, and said, "Don't you know that the ice isn't as solid as it used to be?"
"Don't you know how dangerous it is to catch fish on the ice again?"
Yu Yue pouted. Wasn't she just trying to please Xie Yan?
Xie Yan knew what she was thinking the moment he saw her expression. "Yu Yuehui! I don't need your flattery. You're playing with your life, do you know that?"
"If anything happens to you because of this fish today, what am I supposed to do?"
Yu Yue tried to recall that she wouldn't get hurt, but Xie Yan was angry right now, so she could only obediently nod, "It won't happen again next time!"
"There will be a next time!"
Yu Yue quickly shook her head, "No, no! There will definitely not be a next time."
Xie Yan then let go of Yu Yuehui and turned his gaze to the delicious food in front of him.
I must say, the food today was exceptionally good. The stir-fried cured pork with green peppers was savory and delicious, the Mapo tofu was spicy and addictive, and the spicy sausage had a unique flavor. I tried every dish on the table and enjoyed every bite.
When I'm in a good mood, I really enjoy everything I eat!
When Yu Yue saw him wolfing down his food, a gentle smile unconsciously appeared on her lips.
Her "food plan" was a success.
After this meal, Xie Yan will definitely not hold a grudge about what happened today.
Xie Yan looked up and saw her grinning foolishly to the side, and couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you going to eat?"
Yu Yuehui nodded quickly, "Eat, I'll eat right now!"
The two ate the meal with smiles on their faces, and a warm atmosphere filled the entire house.
At night, the moonlight, like water, shone through the window onto the kang (a heated brick bed).
Yu Yuehui lay on the kang (a heated brick bed), gently playing with Xie Yan's hand.
Xie Yan's fingers were long, slender, and fair, with distinct knuckles. Under the moonlight, they resembled exquisite works of art, a true blessing for hand fetishists.
Although Yu Yuehui wasn't a hand fetishist, she was still very fond of such beautiful hands.
Suddenly, Xie Yan sensed something was wrong. He frowned slightly, grabbed Yu Yuehui's hand, and placed two fingers on her pulse, carefully feeling it.
A moment later, a look of realization appeared in his eyes.
He said he felt Yu Yuehui was acting strangely today, with her emotions fluctuating too much. Oh, so that's what happened!
Seeing Xie Yan's solemn expression, Yu Yuehui was quite frightened. Her heart was pounding, and she quickly asked nervously, "Am I sick?"
Xie Yan looked up at her, a smile gradually spreading across his face. "You're not sick, you're pregnant!"
Yu Yue's eyes widened, "!!!!!!!!!"
She could hardly believe her ears. After a long pause, she stammered, "Wait, did I hear that right? I...I'm really pregnant?"
The room fell completely silent for a moment, with only the excited beating of the two people's hearts, as if they were cheering for the new life that was about to arrive.
Xie Yan's eyes instantly shone like stars, filled with overflowing surprise and excitement, a light that seemed to illuminate the entire dark night.
He nodded vigorously, his voice trembling slightly with excitement, almost crying as he shouted, "Yes, you're pregnant! Honey, we're going to have a baby!" His voice was filled with the joy of becoming a father for the first time, and even more so with boundless anticipation for the future.
Yu Yuehui felt a buzzing in her head, as if she were in a dream, so excited that she was at a loss for words.
She unconsciously covered her mouth with her hands, tears glistening in her eyes.
Looking back on the early days of her marriage, she secretly hoped every night that she could get pregnant soon.
At that time, she spent every day in anxiety and anticipation, her heart filled with longing for a child.
But as time went on, with Xie Yan's patient comfort and guidance, she gradually understood that having a child is like sowing a seed; it requires waiting for the right sunshine, rain, and soil. You can't rush it; everything depends on the right opportunity.
But who could have imagined that just when she had learned to face things calmly and was no longer anxious, this little life would arrive in their world quietly, like an angel.
