Chapter 264 A Qualified Husband
After Qi Xi went upstairs, Zhou Heran took out his phone to take a picture of the heart on the car window, but suddenly noticed two small words below it.
Upon closer inspection, you can see Qi and Zhou on either side of the heart, with the heart itself in the middle.
So the meaning of this picture is that Qi Xi loves Zhou Heran.
Who said Qi Xi can't pursue someone? Her little tricks are just too good, making Zhou Heran's smile even harder to suppress than an AK.

When she was eight months pregnant, Yu Li found it much harder to sleep at night.
One problem is that it's difficult for him to turn over, but the main problem is that he always needs to go to the toilet at night.
No matter how late it is, as soon as Yu Li makes a sound, Qi Chenyan beside her will immediately wake up.
"What's wrong, Lili? Do you want to turn over, or do you need to go to the toilet?"
Yu Li, supporting her stomach, tried to get up, but Qi Chenyan immediately sat up, supported her lower back, and slowly helped her sit up.
"I need to go to the restroom."
Qi Chenyan said okay, and let Yu Li sit down slowly on the edge of the bed. He then went around to the other side, knelt down on one knee, and put her slippers on.
Then, supporting Yu Li's shoulders with one hand and her lower back with the other, he helped her slowly stand up.
During this period, Yu Li would spend a long time in the toilet every time she went to use it.
"You go to sleep first, I can come out by myself in a little while."
Because she had to get up several times every night, Yu Li couldn't sleep. Naturally, Qi Chenyan also helped her with everything and hardly got a full night's sleep either.
Qi Chenyan was still standing at the door. "It's okay, Lili. I'm not sleepy. Take your time and don't rush."
After a while, Yu Li's voice came from inside saying that it was done.
Qi Chenyan immediately pushed open the door and went in, then helped her slowly walk out.
"I'm sorry, I've been having trouble getting up to pee lately, and even turning over in bed is difficult. I'm making you suffer along with me, and you haven't been able to get a full night's sleep."
But Qi Chenyan tenderly stroked his wife's cheeks, which were noticeably less rosy than usual due to lack of sleep, and then leaned in to kiss her forehead.
"What's so hard about me? The one who's worked the hardest is my wife, Lili. Don't apologize to me anymore. If anyone should apologize, it's me who should be apologizing to you."
“The children are ours, but it is the mother who suffers the most. There is so little I can do for you, so if you feel unwell at all, please call me. This is what I should do and must do, okay?”
Although the later stages of pregnancy are indeed very tough, with a considerate and thoughtful husband by her side, Yu Li feels that she can get through it no matter how hard it is.
After lying back in bed, Yu Li couldn't fall asleep.
Qi Chenyan noticed immediately that she hadn't closed her eyes yet. "What's wrong, Lili? Do you want to go to the restroom again?"
Yu Li shook her head and stroked her bulging belly, saying, "The baby seems hungry."
Qi Chenyan chuckled and placed his hand on Yu Li's lower abdomen, asking gently, "So the baby is hungry. What would the baby like to eat?"
"My baby said he wanted to eat the soup dumplings from Lao Wang's Steamed Bun Shop in the east of the city. He said that every bite is full of soup, which is fresh, sweet and delicious. They are so good."
In the later stages of her pregnancy, Yu Li stopped experiencing morning sickness; on the contrary, her appetite was quite good.
However, the housekeeper usually advises Yu Li to eat small meals frequently, because if she eats too much during pregnancy, the fetus will become too big, which will make childbirth more difficult later on.
Because she eats small, frequent meals, Yu Li gets hungry easily at night.
She wanted to eat different things every day, and although she didn't eat much, the variety was always strange and unusual.
Qi Chenyan had already changed his clothes skillfully.
He first checked the round trip distance, "It will take about half an hour round trip. If you need to go to the bathroom during that time, you must call the housekeeper, understand?"
Yu Li is having some difficulty moving around right now, but she feels perfectly fine. It's just that Qi Chenyan is worried that something might happen to her if she's alone, so he feels she needs someone by her side.
Be careful driving on the road.
Old Wang's steamed bun shop also sells late-night snacks, but Qi Chenyan went there late at night.
There weren't many customers left in the shop, and the owners were even packing up, looking like they were about to close.
Qi Chenyan stepped forward and asked, "I'd like to buy a basket of soup dumplings. Do you still have any?"
"I'm sorry, young man, the xiaolongbao are sold out. If you had come half an hour earlier, you could have gotten some. Now you'll have to wait until tomorrow."
Qi Chenyan frowned. "Tomorrow won't work. My wife wants to eat this tonight, but she'll want something different tomorrow."
"One thousand yuan. Could you please make another one separately? My wife is pregnant and going through a lot. If she can't have these xiaolongbao tonight, she's afraid she won't be able to sleep peacefully."
A basket of soup dumplings costs only eight yuan, but Qi Chenyan's price of one thousand yuan is enough to sell more than a hundred baskets, covering all the money the boss would earn for the night's late-night snacks.
"In the middle of the night, to make a special trip over so that your pregnant wife can have a bowl of xiaolongbao, young man, you are a very good husband."
"Although I want to help you, making xiaolongbao requires flour, and the shop has run out of flour for today. Even I, a skilled cook, am at a loss without rice."
Qi Chenyan checked the nearest 24-hour supermarket. "I can go to the supermarket to buy it, but I'll have to trouble you to close later. I'll add another thousand, is that alright?"
The shopkeeper waved his hand repeatedly, "No need to pay more. Just for your rare kindness, young man, I must make an extra batch of xiaolongbao today."
Qi Chenyan then took his car to buy flour. When he returned, all the customers in the shop had already left.
To speed things up, Qi Chenyan also stepped in to help.
As he unbuttoned his sleeves, he stepped forward to lend a hand.
"Young man, how many months pregnant is your wife?"
When his wife was mentioned, Qi Chenyan's eyes were full of smiles: "Eight months."
"That was already in the late stages of pregnancy. Pregnant women have a very tough time at this stage. When I was pregnant, I was almost due, and I was still helping out at the shop."
When the proprietress came in, she overheard the conversation between Qi Chenyan and the boss. As she spoke, she didn't forget to glare at the boss.
"Look at that husband. He drove all the way here just so his wife could have a bowl of xiaolongbao. He even bought flour, added money and effort. That's what a qualified husband should do."
"Look at you! I was almost due, and you still said the shop was too busy. Even on the day I gave birth, you didn't come until the baby was born. What use was I to you!"
The boss, who was being scolded with his ear pulled, could only groan and groan to indicate that he knew he was wrong.
"Young man, it must be stuffy in the shop with the fire burning. I see you're wearing a mask and your forehead is covered in sweat. Why don't you take it off?"
