Chapter 168 Pregnancy
Yu Xiang was quite emotional. After hearing this, Yu Nian chuckled and said, "I didn't give birth to the child for the other person, I gave birth to the child for myself."
"But if it weren't for your brother-in-law, you wouldn't have to endure the hardship of giving birth."
Yu Nian said patiently, "It's because I love him and I want a baby that I choose to bear this hardship. Just like you have a hard time managing Yu's company, it's far less easy than being a second-generation rich man who just eats and waits for death. But you still choose to bear the burden. Although it's hard, it will also bring you satisfaction."
Yu Xiang nodded thoughtfully: "That's right."
She also didn't understand why, even though her family was happy, she always felt that all men were bad, and even looked at Ji Yanxing with tinted glasses.
Finally, she patted her chest and abdomen and said, "Sister, I am very powerful now. If your brother-in-law treats you badly, you can take my eldest nephew home and keep his wife and children away from him."
Yu Nian twitched his lips: "Okay."
Yu Xiang was obviously worrying too much. Since she became pregnant, Ji Yanxing's care for her could be described as meticulous.
Yu Nian's pregnancy reaction was not serious. She did not go through a stage where she did not want to eat anything. She just got hungry very easily. Even if she ate a lot at night, she was still hungry before going to bed. So he hired a nanny who specialized in preparing meals for pregnant women to be responsible for her diet.
He turned down almost all unnecessary social engagements and went home on time every night after get off work to have dinner with her.
The two of them had a rare conflict over Yu Nian's decision to work until three months before giving birth and then stop.
Ji Yanxing agreed to let her continue her online work, but the offline business trips and court hearings would be handed over to her lawyers. Yu Nian firmly disagreed. It had only been more than a month, was she going to be a useless person until she gave birth?
After a dispute, Ji Yanxing spoke gently and reasonably: "You continue to do your core work online, and I won't interfere with you. But you have to travel to the court offline, which is tiring, and you have to argue with the other party's lawyer in court. What if you encounter a mental patient like Liao Ming again?"
Yu Nian also reasoned: "No, didn't you find two bodyguards? Besides, if there is really a psychopath, there is no way to hide from him. If I rest so early, I will be completely exhausted. A pregnant woman's good mood is also very important. Do you want the baby to have a bitter face?"
Ji Yanxing pursed his lips and looked at her without saying a word.
Yu Nian kissed his chin and said, "I will be careful and not tire myself out."
Yu Nian listened to him on most matters and was happy to be a hands-off boss, but she was very persistent about work. Her pregnancy reaction was not serious. Besides, many people worked until the day before delivery, so she was not that squeamish.
In the end, Ji Yanxing compromised and just gave her a few more bodyguards.
Nowadays, Ji Yanxing's bedtime reading has changed from financial news to "Encyclopedia of Pregnancy", "Accompanying My Wife During Pregnancy", "Pregnancy Book for Expectant Fathers", "Guide to Pregnant Women's Pregnancy"... He knows more than her as a pregnant woman.
Once, while he was taking a shower, Yu Nian flipped through his book and saw that the book was covered with dense annotations, as serious as if she was taking notes in class.
Yu Nian's heart suddenly skipped a beat and her eyes suddenly felt sore. During her pregnancy, he was no more relaxed than she was. He felt like he was facing a great enemy, but he had to pretend to be calm in front of her, worried that it would affect her mood.
Both the book and the doctor suggested that Yu Nian should exercise moderately, so every night after dinner, Ji Yanxing took Yu Nian for a walk with Mumu to prevent her from sitting or lying down for long periods of time.
Ji Yanxing has always had the habit of jogging in the morning. When the weather is bad, he exercises in the gym at home. However, Yu Nian has no athletic ability at all. At the beginning, she started to complain of being tired halfway through the run, so Ji Yanxing carried her home on his back.
Gradually, she was able to walk the entire distance and felt that her physical strength had increased a lot.
The increase in exercise brought about a surge in appetite. Yu Nian got hungry easily and was still very hungry after eating six meals a day. Especially after five months, he felt like a starving ghost every day and could never get full no matter what he ate.
Ji Yanxing installed snack cabinets in the living room and bedroom to ensure that she would always have snacks when she was hungry. Yu Nian gained a full ten kilograms by eating non-stop during pregnancy. When she stepped off the scale, she looked at the unbelievable number and suddenly had a brief emotional collapse.
She walked to the fitting mirror blankly and felt that she had gained weight everywhere. Her arms had become thicker, her thighs had a lot of flesh, and her face had also become a lot fatter.
In the huge fitting room, she stood in front of the fitting mirror, looking at herself in the mirror, who was already showing her pregnancy. Somehow, her eyes suddenly felt sore, she closed her eyes, and tears flowed out.
She shed tears silently for a while, raised her hand to wipe away her tears, and prepared to go to the bathroom to wash her face. When she went out, she ran into Ji Yanxing who came upstairs to call her for dinner.
Today is the weekend, and if he is at home, he will cook for her himself.
Seeing her red eyes, Ji Yanxing's heart tightened and he pulled her hand, "What's wrong, baby?"
He was wearing soft home clothes and looked like a real husband.
Ji Yanxing's voice was still a little choked up: "It's nothing, I just gained a lot of weight."
Ji Yanxing lowered his eyes to look at her, gently put his arm around her waist, and held her in his arms, "You're not fat, you're still very beautiful."
Yu Nian buried her head in his arms and said sullenly, "I gained ten pounds. I have never been this fat in all these years."
Over the years, her weight fluctuated no more than three kilograms, but she gained ten kilograms during pregnancy. Yu Nian hated herself for eating without restraint some time ago.
Ji Yanxing looked her up and down and didn't think she was fat. She just had a big belly, but there was still not much flesh on her body.
"Let's go to the beach to watch the sunset tonight, okay?"
Ji Yanxing helped her downstairs, "Or if you feel bored, why don't we drive to a nearby resort for a few days?"
Five months pregnant, Yu Nian's pregnancy has begun to show. She has handed over all offline work to the lawyers in the team, and she is only responsible for online case discussions. Pregnancy makes her easily tired. She has to take a break after forcing herself to work for three or four hours every day.
The workplace has become the study room at home. I stay at home all day long. Under the influence of progesterone, it is easy to suffer from prenatal depression.
Ji Yanxing arranged a desk for her in his office and brought her to the company every day when he went to work. When she was tired, she would rest in the lounge so that he could see her as soon as he raised his eyes while he was working.
But because she was pregnant, they hadn't traveled far away for a long time, and at most they went on a self-driving tour.
Hearing him say this, Yu Nian nodded: "Okay, I'll go after dinner." Seeing that she was in a better mood, Ji Yanxing lowered his eyelashes and sighed softly: "Don't cry secretly anymore, okay?"
Yu Nian buried his head deeper and hummed in a muffled voice: "No more."
