Chu Liyue is pregnant.
The vomiting on the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year was not accidental.
Lin Qingyi took their pulses and found out that because Xiao Wujie and Chu Liyue had always insisted on not having children, she was unsure of their attitude towards the child. So she deliberately sent Xiao Wujie away to get the medicine and only told Chu Liyue about the situation.
Having ascertained Xiao Wujie's attitude, Chu Liyue ultimately decided to keep the child.
Based on her judgment, it must have been that Xiao Wujie had forced her to have sex in the car and forgot to take precautions, which led to this accident.
However, because neither she nor Xiao Wujie were aware of the need to prepare for pregnancy, they recklessly engaged in office sex, setting off a New Year's Eve celebration...
This has caused a disturbance to the fetus, and you need to rest and recuperate.
Upon hearing the news, Chu Yuntian and Bai Jingxuan issued an edict announcing that Chu Mingcheng and Chu Nanfeng would take over all of Chu Liyue's work, and that nothing could affect Chu Liyue's pregnancy.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Shuihan and Luo Yilan, who were far away in Lingnan, flew to the capital without hesitation. Together with Bai Jingxuan, they personally trained a team of chefs and nannies to take care of Chu Liyue's daily life.
Xiao Wujie nervously led Lu Zhufeng and Yun Mo to cover all the sharp objects in the manor and lay carpets on the floor, afraid of affecting his sister in the slightest.
In short, this child received great attention from both the Xiao and Chu families, as well as everyone in the manor, and was treated like a prince or princess.
Only Chu Liyue herself remained calm. She asked Ye Jinyu to find a reputable gynecologist to conduct a comprehensive assessment of her body, and with the help of medication, she quickly stabilized the pregnancy.
After that, she did not stay at home as Bai Jingxuan had arranged. Instead, she continued to work as usual, but her workload was reduced, and she rarely went on business trips.
During Chu Liyue's pregnancy, the couple, who had never had any conflicts in their three years of marriage, had their first minor disagreement.
As summer transitioned into autumn, the temperature plummeted, and Xiao Wujie caught a cold and developed a high fever.
At this time, Chu Liyue was already more than seven months pregnant. He was afraid that he would affect Chu Liyue and the baby, so for the first time after their marriage, he slept in a separate bed from Chu Liyue and hid in the guest room to sleep alone.
The guest room door was pushed open from the outside, and Chu Liyue, wearing a black nightgown that reached her ankles, entered the room, supporting her pregnant belly. Her expression was cold, and her voice was frosty:
"It's cold here, come back to my room and sleep."
Xiao Wujie huddled under the covers, poking his head out. His face was flushed with illness, his brows furrowed with sickness, and he spoke in a low, hoarse voice:
"Sister, let me get better and come back right away, okay?"
A hint of anger flashed in Chu Liyue's eyes. This was the first time in history that Xiao Wujie had completely disobeyed her.
"Have I spoiled you? You don't even listen to me anymore!"
Xiao Wujie was powerless against Chu Liyue's serious demeanor. He quickly crawled out of bed, half-kneeling on the bed, and climbed to Chu Liyue's side.
"Sister, no, it will affect you and the baby."
Chu Liyue grabbed his hand, the icy touch making her furrow her brows. Xiao Wujie was always ill and the bed was never warm enough; leaving him to sleep alone here might worsen his condition tomorrow.
She pretended to reach out and hug Xiao Wujie's legs.
Xiao Wujie, mindful of her pregnant belly, quickly moved away.
Chu Liyue's misty eyebrows furrowed slightly, her eyes freezing as she stared at Xiao Wujie: "I'll say it one last time, come back with me."
She rarely looked at Xiao Wujie with such a gaze. Xiao Wujie froze on the spot as if frozen. Before he could react, Chu Liyue had already turned and walked towards the door.
Xiao Wujie's eyes suddenly flashed with panic. He didn't even bother to put on his shoes before rushing after Chu Liyue.
He knew that if he continued to disobey today, the consequences would be severe.
He didn't want to upset his sister more than he wanted to worry about the potential consequences.
Inside the room, the air conditioner blew out warm air. Xiao Wujie was tucked into the blanket by Chu Liyue, while she herself sat elegantly on a chair by the bed, her arms crossed and her gaze cold.
Xiao Wujie huddled under the covers, glancing timidly at Chu Liyue from time to time. Whenever he met her icy gaze, he would instantly flinch and shrink back as if he had been electrocuted.
Under the covers, he moved his body centimeter by centimeter until his arm could reach out from under the covers and pinch the hem of Chu Liyue's skirt.
Although he raised his eyes, they darted away, avoiding Chu Liyue's gaze. His eyelashes fluttered lowered, and he gently bit his lip, his voice low and ingratiating:
"Sister, I'm still cold..."
Chu Liyue remained unmoved, her voice icy: "The guest room is warm, go sleep there."
Xiao Wujie seemed startled by her icy tone; his face paled, and tears welled up in his eyes in an instant. He gently shook her skirt with his fingers, his voice trembling:
"Sister, I was wrong, please don't do this..."
"Seeing you angry makes me feel so bad."
Chu Liyue was so angry she laughed. She leaned down, pinched his chin, and sneered, "Now you know you were wrong."
"I already told you, you just caught a cold and it's not contagious, and I'm just pregnant and not weak. Are you ignoring what I said?"
Xiao Wujie nuzzled her palm with his chin in a flattering manner, his voice as soft as water: "I just don't want my sister and baby to be affected in any way."
Chu Liyue's icy aura froze for a moment, but a sharp, intimidating glint appeared in her eyes. She abruptly lifted his chin, forcing him to meet her gaze, and spoke slowly and deliberately:
"Remember, in my heart, you are more important than anyone else, including the children!"
A blush suddenly appeared at the corner of Xiao Wujie's eyes. He called out "Sister" in a trembling voice, then suddenly pounced on her, hugged her waist tightly, and buried his face in her legs.
In the long run of their relationship, they did not lose to each other.
He simply underestimated Chu Liyue's abilities, because her love had no end.
Chu Liyue gently scratched his scalp with her fingers, a hint of doting smile appearing in her eyes, and softened her voice:
"Tell me, how are you planning to sleep tonight?"
Xiao Wujie lifted himself from her lap and nodded, his cheeks flushed, and whispered softly:
"Sleep with my sister, and let her hold me while I sleep."
Chu Liyue, having received a satisfactory answer, lifted the covers and lay down. She stretched out her arm for Xiao Wujie to rest his head on, pulled his hand to her pregnant belly, and whispered:
"Don't be so nervous, you can feel her."
Xiao Wujie reached out and felt around for a while, then suddenly asked, "Sister, do you think the baby is a boy or a girl?"
Although she was seven months pregnant, Chu Liyue had regular checkups, but she didn't check the baby's gender, keeping it a mystery.
Chu Liyue gently pinched the soft flesh of his nape, placed her warm soles on the insteps of his feet to warm them, and chuckled, "My sweetheart, do you prefer a boy or a girl?"
Xiao Wujie shuddered slightly, then leaned in to listen to her pregnant belly, saying, "I love any baby that is mine and my sister's."
"But I still prefer girls..."
Chu Liyue gently stroked her head and asked with a smile, "Why?"
Xiao Wujie's cheeks flushed slightly, but he still said, "I like it when my sister holds me while I sleep. If it's a daughter, my sister will hold me, and I'll hold the baby."
"If it were a boy..."
He paused slightly, his tone disdainful: "Sister, keep holding me. Let Lao Lu hold him instead."
Chu Liyue lightly flicked his forehead with her fingertip, "Jealous! You're even jealous of your own son."
Xiao Wujie blushed and gently rubbed against her pregnant belly: "I don't care, my sister can only spoil me, the only man."
"However, based on my telepathic connection with my baby, I feel that she is a girl."
