Shen Shiyi woke up suddenly, her pillow already damp. She stroked her growing belly and wiped away tears from the corners of her eyes with her other hand.
Qin Ziming woke up on time and quickly washed up and changed his clothes. After leaving the dressing room, he went to the bedside table in the bedroom and decided to call his wife to see if he could get lucky.
Shen Shiyi, who had just finished washing up, heard the phone ringing, walked out of the bathroom, picked up the phone on the table, and answered it.
"Hey, Zimo, good morning."
Hearing his wife's voice, Qin Ziming felt a little more at ease.
"Good morning, honey."
Why did you call me so early?
"I just missed you."
Shen Shiyi listened with a smile.
"You really don't hide anything at all."
Qin Ziming smiled lightly and pursed her lips.
"Why would I hide my own wife?"
"Okay, okay, I won't argue with you about this, lest it ruin my mood for the whole day."
"Honey, have you missed me?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Shiyi pursed her lips and said, "A little bit."
"Just a little bit."
"What, it's not okay?"
"Okay, okay, then I'll love you even more."
He confessed his feelings to her first thing in the morning, and Shen Shiyi lowered her head shyly.
"How come I never noticed before that Mr. Qin is such a good talker?"
Qin Ziming smiled gently, his expression as warm and refined as jade.
"I was just afraid of scaring you." Now that she's his wife, he's not afraid anymore.
"Oh, I see. It's getting late. Go have breakfast and then work hard to earn money."
Hearing his wife's instructions, Qin Ziming smiled even more gently.
"Yes, my dear wife, I will definitely work hard to earn money for baby formula."
After hanging up the phone, Shen Shiyi looked at her phone and burst out laughing. Qin Ziming, on the other end, also couldn't help but smile broadly.
In the past few days, Shen Shiyi's appetite has increased significantly. Xu Duo, who was sitting opposite her, watched her eat a white steamed bun, a corn bun, a twisted roll, a bowl of vegetable porridge, and now she was eating a large ear of corn. He stopped eating in surprise.
"Professor Shen, I didn't even notice, you've been eating so much." Pregnant women really do have big appetites.
Upon hearing this, Shen Shiyi spoke up somewhat awkwardly.
"There's no other way; I have to eat the equivalent of three people's food."
Many people's pupils dilate after hearing this.
"Are you having twins?"
Shen Shiyi nodded slightly.
"right."
“I’m saying that you have such a big belly now, and you can eat so much. You’re eating the equivalent of three people’s meals. You must be eating a lot more.”
Upon hearing his words, Shen Shiyi lowered her head and smiled.
Nan Zhan, who was walking over, looked up in surprise when he saw that there wasn't much food left on her plate.
"You're moving way too fast."
Many people quickly explained on her behalf.
"One person eats the amount of food for three people."
Nan Zhan looked at Shen Shiyi in surprise.
"Sigh, being a mom isn't easy. I really envy your husband."
Many people couldn't help but joke when they heard this.
"Then you should get married too, and the children will come naturally."
Shen Shiyi knew he didn't want to get married too early, so she didn't say anything. Hearing his comrade's words, Nan Zhan just smiled and remained silent.
Seeing that he didn't say much, Xu also shut up.
After finishing her corn, Shen Shiyi started peeling boiled eggs. Just then, her phone rang again. She paused, clearly startled, when she saw the caller ID.
"Hello, Mom."
While idly watering the flowers, Qin's mother realized she hadn't called her daughter-in-law in a long time, so she called to check on her.
"Shiyi, have you had breakfast?"
"Eating."
"Remember to maintain a balanced diet. You're over three months pregnant now. Has your appetite increased? Are you experiencing morning sickness?"
"No morning sickness, but my appetite has increased recently."
"You can't eat too much, you still need to control yourself, otherwise your weight will skyrocket, which will be a burden for you."
When Shen Shiyi heard her mother-in-law's concern, the corners of her mouth unconsciously turned up.
"Okay, Mom. Have you had breakfast yet?"
"We've eaten, so don't worry about us. It's you who's alone that makes Mom a little worried."
"Don't worry, I'm fine."
With the care and concern of her family, she felt pretty good, at least much better than her first marriage.
Seeing this, Qin's mother hung up the phone with relief.
Gu Niansi walked over wearing a pink princess dress.
"Grandma, are you watering the flowers?"
Upon hearing her voice, Qin's mother replied gently.
"Yes, Niannian, would you like to give it a try?"
Gu Niansi looked at her excitedly.
"May I?"
"Of course, come here, let Grandma hold you."
After saying that, he bent down and picked up Gu Niansi's chubby little body.
"Niannian, you've gained weight."
"I think so too. Should I lose weight?"
Qin's mother nodded.
"Okay, for the sake of your health, you need to control your food intake, especially your sweets."
Gu Niansi loves sweets the most, and her face fell when she heard that.
"But I can't bear to part with it." She really loves sweets.
Upon hearing this, Qin's mother immediately began to offer earnest and heartfelt words of comfort.
"Eating too many sweets will cause cavities, which will ruin all your white teeth, and then our little princess won't be pretty anymore."
As expected, Gu Niansi immediately covered her mouth upon hearing this.
"Then I won't eat it." She didn't want to go to kindergarten with a cavity.
Seeing that she was obedient, Qin's mother handed her a small watering can.
"Come on, Grandma will teach you how to water the flowers."
In the living room, Sophie looked out onto the balcony where two people were diligently watering the flowers. Then she looked down at Fanfan, who was playing chess with the old man.
"Fanfan, school starts soon. Do you want to look online and preview your lessons?"
