"Why the sudden change in taste? Sour for boys, spicy for girls?"
Yu Ting asked.
The car was deadly quiet.
Yu Ting: ...
After being silent for a few minutes, Yu Ting turned to Lu Nanchen and asked seriously.
"Don’t you like sons?"
"I don’t dislike them."
"So, you hate them?"
"...I don’t hate them."
"Then you?" 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶
Without hesitation, Lu Nanchen answered, "I prefer daughters."
Yu Ting took over the conversation even more decisively: "What if I give birth to a son?"
...
...
...
"I will still raise him well, but I would just feel a bit disappointed for a while."
Several minutes later, Lu Nanchen expressed his true feelings, "Because the child is ours, whether it’s a boy or a girl, I will raise them well and love them. You don’t need to worry about that. I just prefer daughters a bit more, but that doesn’t mean I won’t treat my son well."
There’s not much of a difference really. According to Zuo Fugui, raising a son can just be a bit boring at most.
Seeing Lu Nanchen like this, Yu Ting let out a sigh, sat back down, and gazed forward.
"I got it."
Then they continued heading towards home.
The market was close to where they lived, so it only took a few minutes by car. Once they got home and it was about time for dinner, Lu Nanchen went straight to the kitchen with the groceries and started cooking.
As for Yu Ting, she took a rest on the sofa. She was a bit tired after a busy morning.
Time passed quickly and after lunch, it was soon dinner time.
After having a good lunch, the dinner Lu Nanchen prepared for Yu Ting was slightly lighter. After eating, at around seven-thirty, since Yu Ting had walked for tens of minutes around the hospital in the morning, she didn’t feel like going out for a walk at night. After taking a bath and changing into clean clothes, she went to bed.
After finishing up the chores, Lu Nanchen cleaned up the house, took a bath, and changed into his pajamas. He walked out of the bathroom neatly dressed, drying his damp hair with a towel while heading towards the master bedroom bed.
Just as he sat down on the bed, Lu Nanchen remembered what the doctor had advised during the day.
Sleeping in separate rooms.
Lu Nanchen, who had just enjoyed his wife’s scent: ...
His eyebrows suddenly furrowed and he got off the bed with a serious look.
Yu Ting, who noticed Lu Nanchen sit down and then get up again: ?
"Did you forget to do something?"
"No, the doctor said we need to sleep in separate rooms during pregnancy."
"Oh, right." Yu Ting replied, and then started calculating subconsciously.
"So, we have to be separate for over six months?" After all, she was just over three months pregnant.
Lu Nanchen: ...
"You should go quickly, tidy up a guest room as soon as possible and get to bed early." Yu Ting advised him considerately.
Lu Nanchen had been going to bed around eleven every night since they moved in together.
Lu Nanchen: ...
For a moment, he thought the Double Income, No Kid Family wasn’t such a bad idea.
After standing still and looking at Yu Ting for a while, Lu Nanchen headed towards the room’s exit.
With a "click", Lu Nanchen left the room.
Three or four minutes later.
With another "click", Lu Nanchen entered the room.
Accompanied by this sound, Yu Ting quickly saw Lu Nanchen walk in with a brand new set of bed linen and a mattress.
Yu Ting: ?
"Separate beds. I will sleep on the floor tonight, and then move another bed into the bedroom tomorrow night."
This way, he could deal with emergencies faster and also stay closer to his wife.
Yu Ting: ...
She remained silent, letting Lu Nanchen do these things.
After getting everything sorted, the two went to bed. Halfway through the night, Yu Ting felt that something was off.
