Qian Duoduo was leisurely sitting by the window in a coffee shop near the main entrance of Wanmao Plaza, gently stirring a cup of fragrant milk coffee, her gaze occasionally drifting to the bustling crowd outside. Just then, her phone rang abruptly. She glanced down and saw Lu Fen's name flashing on the screen. A slight smile played on her lips as she quickly answered the phone. After a brief chat with Lu Fen, they agreed to meet at this spot.
Not long after, a figure hurriedly walked into the coffee shop. Lu Fen immediately spotted Qian Duoduo, dressed casually with her hair tied up in a high ponytail. She looked youthful and energetic, like a college student. Lu Fen quickly walked to the table, plopped down, and said with a hint of teasing, "Hey, you're almost 40, why are you dressed like a college student? No wonder Yuanzi is so scared of you and keeps staring at you all the time!"
Hearing this, Qian Duoduo rolled her eyes at Lu Fen and retorted, "Even if I dress up like a college student, how can I compare to you, a new mom!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Fen's face immediately lit up with a happy smile, but he pretended to be helpless and said, "Oh dear, you don't know, I can't be thirsty, hungry, tired, or talkative right now! So, you'd better take good care of me today!" After saying that, he winked mischievously at Qian Duoduo.
Seeing this, Qian Duoduo couldn't help but let out a soft hum, but her eyes clearly revealed her concern and tolerance for her friend.
Just then, a waiter nimbly walked to the table and gently placed a steaming cup of milk in front of Lu Fen. Lu Fen watched as Qian Duoduo, sitting opposite him, leisurely savored her rich milk coffee, her throat bobbing up and down as she swallowed hard.
Qian Duoduo put down her cup and said to Lu Fen in a serious tone, "You can't be thirsty, hungry, tired, or even talk! And I have to tell you now, you absolutely can't eat spicy food, and don't even think about sour food. You can only look at coffee and milk tea with longing!" After saying that, she winked at Lu Fen playfully.
Hearing this, Lu Fen immediately became unhappy. She pouted and muttered angrily, "Duo Duo, how come you've become so unlovable! How can you boss people around like that!"
Upon hearing this, Qian Duoduo rolled her eyes at him without any politeness and said irritably, "My dear sister, don't forget, you're 45 years old this year, not an 18-year-old beauty anymore! Please take back that pouty mouth of yours, and save that innocent look in your eyes!"
After hearing this, Lu Fen was taken aback for a moment, then chuckled dryly twice, quickly straightened up, sat up properly, and asked cautiously, "Will this be alright?"
Qian Duoduo's expression turned serious. He carefully examined her for a moment, then nodded in satisfaction and replied, "Hmm, not bad, that's the posture. But I must remind you, from now on, for the next ten whole months, you have to maintain this sitting posture!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Fen's previously ramrod-straight back instantly went limp, and she slumped into the chair like a deflated balloon, muttering, "Oh my god, this is going to kill me! No, no, I need to relax and enjoy this free time while my belly isn't too big yet..."
Qian Duoduo sighed heavily and looked at Lu Fen with some suspicion, asking, "You wouldn't happen to be the kind of person who favors sons over daughters, would you?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Fen's eyes widened instantly, and she retorted defiantly, "Hey! What are you saying? Don't talk nonsense! My eldest daughter is simply a rare gem, one in a million! She's so beautiful, so pretty, so incredibly gorgeous! She's the apple of my eye! Even though she's pregnant again now, we absolutely cannot let our eldest daughter suffer the slightest grievance, and we certainly won't let her lose her status at home!" After saying that, Lu Fen even put her hands on her hips, puffing out her cheeks in anger.
Seeing this, Qian Duoduo couldn't help but sigh helplessly again. She muttered to herself: Lu Fen used to be a lively and cheerful person, but she hadn't become so talkative as she is now. Could pregnancy really cause such a huge change in a person?
She shook her head, thinking: I don't think I was like this when I was pregnant.
At this moment, Lu Fen looked around and, seeing that there was no one else nearby, lowered his voice and said to Qian Duoduo, "Do you agree to what my mom told you?"
Qian Duoduo leaned forward and looked at Lu Fen, asking, "What did Auntie tell me about?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Fen immediately became anxious.
Qian Duoduo immediately smiled. She pretended to glare at Lu Fen, then added, "I don't have that thing here, but... I have prepared something else for you."
At first, when Lu Fen heard Qian Duoduo say those words, her heart skipped a beat, but her next words quickly changed her mood. Her eyes lit up with surprise, and she seemed to leap from her seat, quickly walking to Qian Duoduo's side. She gently sat down, naturally taking Qian Duoduo's arm, and affectionately resting her head on her shoulder, saying coquettishly, "Sister, I knew you would never abandon me!"
Seeing this, Qian Duoduo's face also lit up with a warm smile. She reached out and gently patted her cheek, responding softly, "Now you know how good I am to you, sister?"
Lu Fen nodded hurriedly in agreement: "I know, I know, of course I know perfectly well! Oh dear, I really don't know when the four of us sisters in the dormitory can get together again!" As she spoke, a hint of expectation and nostalgia appeared in her eyes.
After thinking for a moment, Qian Duoduo said, "If you ask me, I guess I'll have to wait until I give birth back then."
Upon hearing this, Lu Fen immediately shook his head like a rattle-drum, waving his hands repeatedly and saying, "No, no, when I give birth, I will definitely be the ugliest and most miserable time of my life. How can we choose that time for a gathering!"
Qian Duoduo sighed helplessly and explained, "There's nothing we can do about it. My sister-in-law is in the Northwest right now, busy planting trees. There's no way she could possibly come all the way from there to meet us!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Fen also sighed and murmured to himself, "Ah, if only we could have another chance to meet..."
