The man looked at her furrowed brows, instantly leaving the woman's lips and smiling indulgently.
"Okay, seeing how nervous you are, I won't tease you anymore."
Ren Xueer opened her mouth and said, "Well, then put me down!"
Lu Tingen carried her into the living room, his eyes only focused on the person in his arms. "What? You won't let me kiss you, and you won't let me hold you even though you're pregnant?"
"..." The woman subconsciously rolled her eyes at him and muttered to herself, "Hasn't your kiss been enough?"
"What was Madam mumbling about?" Lu Tingen paused and put his ear close to her. "Didn't I hear clearly just now?"
Ren Xueer pushed the man's face away and clicked her tongue, "I'm sleepy, hurry up..."
The man interrupted her at the right moment and whispered ambiguously, "What do you mean by hurry up? Madam, what are you talking about?"
"Lu Tingen, did you do this on purpose?" The woman blushed anxiously and pulled the man's ear without saying anything. "Hurry up and leave! I'm sleepy!"
The man quickened his pace, looking calm, "Okay, if Madam had said so earlier, everything would have been fine."
“…”
The two returned to the bedroom. Ren Xueer went into the bathroom to take a shower first, while the man went to the study next door.
The study door had just been closed when, within five seconds, there were knocks on the door.
"Knock, knock, knock."
Lu Tingen turned his head to look at the door and couldn't help but frown.
"who?"
"Brother, it's me!"
Hearing the person outside, the man stepped back to the door and opened it, "Tingting, it's so late, why haven't you slept yet?"
Lu Ting walked in in her pajamas and shook her ringing phone in front of the man. "Thanks to you, my phone hasn't stopped ringing all night."
Lu Tingen glanced at the caller ID and said, "Power off."
Lu Ting shook her head. "Let's not talk about it. How about you answer it?"
"No."
Lu Ting pouted and complained, "Brother, your mother can't find you and always comes to harass me."
The man saw through her little thoughts at a glance and curled his thin lips.
"Did you say anything to her?"
"Uh..." Lu Ting was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud, "Um, brother, I just said it casually. My sister-in-law vomited several times in the company. I didn't say anything else!"
Seeing that the man didn't react, he immediately raised his hand to assure, "Brother, I swear, I really didn't say anything else."
"Your sister-in-law is pregnant."
"Oh... Shit! I actually guessed it right!" Lu Ting was surprised. She threw her phone on the sofa and ran to the man to ask for praise.
"Brother, am I awesome?"
Lu Tingen looked at her calmly and said, "I'm your brother, and I'm awesome. What does it have to do with you?"
"...Tsk tsk tsk, that's right." Lu Ting looked up at him with her hands behind her back, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.
"Brother, why do you look even more worried than during the day? Why, are you unhappy that my sister-in-law is pregnant?"
"Nonsense, I didn't!"
Lu Ting said firmly: "No, your expression clearly shows that you are very worried!"
"You think too much, I don't!"
"Brother, tell me the truth, are you worried about YiBo?"
The man was shocked, as if his secrets had been exposed, and subconsciously withdrew his gaze, "Tingting, you..."
"It's true." Lu Ting wandered in front of the man, frowning and thinking.
"Brother, are you worried that your sister-in-law will treat Yibo badly if she has her own child?"
The man immediately denied it, "Tingting, don't talk nonsense, I didn't!"
Lu Ting circled around the man several times, staring at his face intently.
"Look, look, brother, do you know? When you lie, you never dare to look other people in the eye. It turns out you still don't trust your sister-in-law."
"How well do you think you know me?" Lu Tingen got anxious and even scolded himself.
"It's not that I don't trust her, it's that I don't trust a scumbag like me to be a good father to two children."
Lu Ting: “???”
Calling yourself a scumbag?
Wait, isn't he starting to get anxious?
"Brother, it's getting late, and you've been tired all day. Go and rest!"
"I'm sorry, I just lost control of myself." The man closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths. "Tingting, go to sleep first!"
Lu Ting picked up her phone and walked to the door. "Okay, brother, then don't sleep too late. Good night."
"Well, good night."
After Lu Ting left, the man rummaged through the drawer, found a cigarette and habitually put it in his mouth.
Just as it was lit, the next second, he extinguished it with his bare hands.
He closed his eyes and sat on the swivel chair, an inexplicable feeling welling up in his heart.
—
The next morning, Ren Xueer woke up from the big bed and looked to the side as usual.
Huh, empty?
The woman stretched and yawned as she sat up. Before she could finish yawning, she was startled by the man curled up on the sofa and her mouth opened wide again.
He is 188cm tall, and he just slept on a sofa that is less than 1.7 meters high for a whole night?
At this moment, Ren Xueer's heart suddenly tightened. It was the first time she saw him look so pitiful.
She had just gotten out of bed when the man's deep and magnetic voice filled the entire bedroom in the early morning.
"Little thing, are you awake?"
The woman's body suddenly stiffened, and she raised her eyes to meet the man's gaze. "Well, why are you sleeping on the sofa?"
"I'm afraid it will press on your stomach." Lu Tingen got up from the sofa, walked to the bed and sat down next to the woman, looking her up and down from head to toe.
"How was it? Did you sleep well last night? Are you feeling unwell?"
Ren Xueer felt warm in her heart and smiled, revealing her little tiger teeth. "Report to Mr. Lu, I slept very well and didn't feel uncomfortable."
"You naughty!" The man pinched her cheeks and kissed her lips.
Ren Xueer subconsciously wiped her mouth, "I didn't brush my teeth!!!"
Seeing this, the man's brows knitted into a knot, "You dislike me? Huh?"
As he said this, he kissed the woman's lips again.
"..." Ren Xueer learned her lesson this time. She didn't wipe her mouth. She left a sentence "You are so childish" and got out of bed to go to the bathroom.
An hour later, the young couple came down from the second floor reluctantly. As soon as they entered the living room, they saw four familiar faces.
They all gathered around and stared at Ren Xueer as if she were a national treasure.
Ren Xueer saw this and moved closer to the man, smiling awkwardly, "Grandpa, grandma, mom and dad, good morning!"
Grandma Lu looked at her kindly, "Hahaha... Good morning, good morning, child, come here, grandma has something to tell you."
"Oh." Ren Xue'er helped Grandma Lu walk to the sofa and sat down, and then she sat down too. "What's wrong, Grandma?"
"Congratulations on becoming a mother, kid."
Ren Xueer scratched her head embarrassedly, "Uh...thank you grandma."
"Hehehe... family members shouldn't thank each other all the time." Grandma Lu exuded the care and concern of an elder. She took Ren Xueer's hand and placed a small bottle in her hand.
"Kid, this is for you!"
Ren Xueer: “???”
