Sheng An Ning had been busy all day, and she felt very tired after dinner. She was so sleepy that she could hardly open her eyelids. She originally wanted to have a good chat with Zhou Shixun, but after sending Zhou Chaoyang away, she lay down on an empty sickbed and fell asleep before she had time to wash up.
It was because I was too tired that day, and also because Zhou Shixun came back, the nerves that had been tense in my heart suddenly relaxed, so I slept particularly soundly.
Sheng An Ning always felt like something was crawling back and forth in her stomach, but her eyelids were heavy and she couldn't open them. The real touch became clearer and clearer, forcing her to open her eyes.
Under the dim light, Zhou Shixun sat beside the hospital bed, his big hands on her lower abdomen, his eyes lowered, staring at her belly with extreme piety.
The big hand slid across my belly carefully and reluctantly.
Sheng An Ning suddenly felt a little sad. During the day, when she said she was pregnant, Zhou Shixun didn't seem to react much. There was just shock in his eyes and a few words of concern, but no other emotions.
She almost thought that he didn't like children.
Who could have imagined that this dull, emotionally reserved man would stare at her belly in the middle of the night, and slowly touch her belly with caution and excitement.
Zhou Shixun didn't know how to describe his mood today. He rushed home eagerly, and only felt relieved when he saw Sheng An Ning. After knowing that Sheng An Ning was pregnant, his mind had been in a state of confusion.
I don’t know what to do or what to say.
It was not until the evening, when Sheng An Ning lay down and fell asleep and everything around him became quiet, that he had time to sort out his feelings. He couldn't fall asleep while lying down, so he simply sat up.
Looking at Sheng An Ning lying flat on her back with one hand resting on her brow, sleeping peacefully, he looked at her lovingly for a while, then his gaze fell on her slightly bulging belly.
As I watched, I couldn't help but smile foolishly. In the previous twenty-seven years, I never knew what happiness was, but at this moment my heart was filled with happiness.
Thinking about the future when there will be a little kid like Sheng Anning in the family, my eyes unconsciously become moist.
Finally, he couldn't help it, so he got out of bed and carefully touched Sheng An Ning's belly. Seeing that she didn't react, he sat on the edge of the bed, watching her and grinning foolishly.
The feeling of the slight bulge under the big hand made him feel that all the suffering he had suffered before was nothing.
Sheng An Ning saw that she had been awake for a long time, but Zhou Shixun didn't notice it. He was still staring at her belly intently, and asked with a smile: "Is it so beautiful? Who is prettier, him or me?"
Zhou Shixun was like a child who had done something wrong. He quickly retracted his hand and looked up at Sheng Anning: "Did I wake you up?"
Sheng An Ning smiled with crooked eyes, reached out and took his hand and pressed it on her belly: "You can touch your child, there is no need to be sneaky, our baby is slowly beginning to feel it, and will interact with us soon."
Zhou Shixun's eyebrows were gentle, and he looked at Sheng Anning with a focused and soft look: "Will it be hard?"
Sheng An Ning rolled her eyes and pouted, "Of course I will. My belly will be as big as a ball, and I might even get spots on my face. My figure will also be deformed. I will never be able to recover to my current figure, and I will become ugly. Will you dislike me?"
If you think about it, it’s pretty scary.
Zhou Shixun seemed to be stumped by the question and just stood there without saying anything.
After a while, he shook his head seriously: "No, I will never dislike you in this life."
Sheng Anning was amused by Zhou Shixun's straight words. If she knew how to say sweet words, she would definitely say that no matter what you become, you are the way I like you, or that I will only be loyal to you in this life.
However, Zhou Shixun still has to think carefully and decide whether to despise you for the rest of his life.
"Why did you take so long to think about it? Were you wondering how ugly I could get?"
Zhou Shixun shook his head: "No, I think I am older than you, have a bad personality, and can't say nice things to make you happy. Only you dislike me, what right do I have to dislike you."
Sheng An Ning was happy, she supported herself on the bed and sat up, she put her arms around Zhou Shixun's neck, and carefully avoided the wound on his chest, and rubbed his cheek affectionately: "Then you can only like me, and only like me when the child is born, and be good to me alone in this life."
This time Zhou Shixun did not hesitate: "Okay."
Sheng An Ning laughed, then touched her belly: "Baby, did you hear that? Daddy only likes mommy, not you."
Zhou Shixun: “…”
The next day, at Sheng An Ning's request, Zhou Shixun went to the office first and called Zhong Wenqing and others to tell them that he had returned to the unit and also told them about Sheng An Ning's pregnancy.
Zhong Wenqing answered the phone and was so surprised that he was afraid he had heard it wrong, so he asked twice in a row: "Is An Ning pregnant? How many months?"
When Zhong Wenqing knew that Sheng An Ning was already three months pregnant, he put down the phone and went to Longbei, happily saying to Zhou Nanguang: "An Ning is pregnant, I want to go over to take care of her. They are so busy, they definitely don't have time to cook properly, and they also have to prepare clothes and bedding for the child. An Ning definitely won't do that."
After talking a lot, he felt that there were still many things he had forgotten, so he hurried to the study: "I need to find a pen and paper to write down what I need."
While writing, he called out to Zhou Nanguang: "Zhou Nanguang, Zhou Nanguang, take all the money you have at home. Oh, and buy a silver lock for the child."
Zhou Nanguang came back from a walk outside and heard some noise at home. He was curious: "What happened? Is Wenqing not in good spirits again?"
Zhou Nanguang shook his head helplessly: "No, it's Shi Xun's wife who is pregnant. She is very happy and wants to prepare some things to go over."
Although Zhou Shuanglu didn't see Zhou Shixun for a long time, he liked this grandson very much, just like he liked Zhou Luancheng in the past, because only these two grandsons joined the army.
In addition, Zhou Shixun is meticulous and doesn't like to talk, but every word he says hits the point, and he is calmer and wiser than his peers.
Now that he heard that Zhou Shixun's wife was pregnant, he was also very happy: "We should go there. The young people there are busy with work. Take my passbook and withdraw all the money. See what the child wants to eat. Don't be reluctant to spend money."
After thinking for a while, he added, "If it doesn't work, bring him to Beijing. The conditions here are much better than over there."
Zhou Nanguang looked at his father who suddenly became nagging and gradually lost his mind, and couldn't help but remind him: "Dad, Shi Xun is over there, how could An Ning come here? Isn't this separating the couple?"
Zhou Shuanglu thought about it and it made sense: "Then you guys go take a good look and see what you need. If you can't find anything, call Secretary Zhang and ask him to buy it and send it to Shi Xun and the others."
Zhong Wenqing was originally worried about where Zhou Beiqing would go after being kicked out of the house by Zhou Nanguang. But now after hearing that Sheng Anning was pregnant, he had nothing in his mind and only wanted to go see Zhou Shixun and Sheng Anning.
I couldn't wait even a day, so I went west with Zhou Nanguang carrying my bags the next day...
