"I’ve thrown up twice today, and I don’t know if I’ll throw up again tonight." Yu Ting answered truthfully upon hearing the question from the other end of the line.
Lu Nanchen, who was sitting next to her, felt his heart tighten upon hearing this: "Twice? Did you also throw up when you went to the show?" 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
"Mm-hm, I was nauseated by the smell of cooking oil in the cafeteria at Huyue Entertainment. It’s not so severe, just a feeling of nausea, it’s okay."
"Feeling nauseous is the key, alas, it’s always like this in the early stage. Have Nanchen buy you more fruit, it might provide some relief."
"Mm-hm, okay."
Over at the other end of the line, Lu’s mother couldn’t contain her laughter as she said solemnly, "Mm-hm, let Nanchen handle whatever comes up. You’re now the most precious one in the family. These matters are very important for a girl, you must not be careless. Minor errors could harm the child, and major ones could cause great harm to your body."
"Mm-hm."
"Ah, I’m still worried, I think I’ll come over tomorrow to have a good talk with you two."
"Ah... that’s not necessary, Mom. I’m still out of town for work. It’s okay, I’ll be careful."
"Alright then, I’ll wait a while before coming."
"Mm-hm."
...
The two of them talked for a long time over the phone. After Yu Ting said her goodbyes, she handed the phone to Lu Nanchen. The phone was back in his hands and he gently stroked Yu Ting’s head.
He then walked a little distance away from Yu Ting, and placed another call with his free hand.
"You continue to eat. I’ll be back shortly," said Lu Nanchen before he walked onto the balcony with the phone in hand.
The phone rang twice before it was answered by Song Yue.
Lu Nanchen blurted out without waiting: "I’m going to be a father."
Song Yue, who had been about to ask ’what’s wrong’: ...
Is that why he called me?
"Is there anything else?"
"No."
"You should get married soon. It’s not a good look for both brothers to be unmarried."
Song Yue: ....
" I hope you have twin boys in one shot. A daughter? There’s no way you’re having a daughter."
Song Yue was about to retort when Lu Nanchen cut off the call.
Even though he didn’t say it out loud, his demeanor indicated he wanted a daughter more.
Lu Nanchen, standing in the middle of the apartment, ignored what Song Yue had just said and placed another call.
"Zuo Fugui?"
"Mm-hm, Brother, why’d you call me?"
"I’m going to be a father."
Zuo Fugui: ....
Damn, I really feel like hanging up.
"Your sister-in-law has had a hard time. I’ll bring some things to visit her another day."
"No need for another day, tomorrow evening will do."
Zuo Fugui: ?
Something must be up. He could smell a conspiracy through the phone screen.
Lu Nanchen casually said, "I’m going back to Jiangqi City with your sister-in-law tomorrow, you come over in the evening, and teach me how to tidy up things by the way. Your sister-in-law is pregnant so she can’t overdo it."
Zuo Fugui: ........
He had heard that his sister-in-law worked only 6 days a month, and the rest of the work was done by Song Zhan.
Now that she’s pregnant, the work has been passed on to Lu Nanchen.
Even Zuo Fugui, who has been relying on his parents, felt happy for Yu Ting. And then there’s workhorse Song Yue...
He clicks his tongue in pity.
He’s so jealous he could die.
He should seek a better reincarnation in his next life.
"How about it?"
Seeing that Zuo Fugui hadn’t responded for a while, Lu Nanchen prompted him.
"Okay, I’ll come over tomorrow evening."
"Good."
