When Zhou Yue and Deng Jianyan got home, they hurriedly went upstairs to remove their makeup; it would be a lie to say they weren't tired.
"You're really pushing yourself to the limit; your legs are even a little swollen." Deng Jianyan helped her change into her bathrobe, assisted her to the bed, and gently massaged her fair calves.
Zhou Yue's skin was fair and slightly puffy, making it look even more like fine porcelain, smooth to the touch.
After rubbing for a while, Deng Jianyan's hands became restless, quietly moving upwards along the calf.
"Behave yourself!" Zhou Yue tapped his finger.
"Why should I be honest? Now you're mine, and the pregnancy is stable. You can do some light exercise." Deng Jianyan finished speaking and blinked.
"Gently what?! No way!" Zhou Yue raised her leg and kicked him away.
"You're saying this now, but how did you treat me back then!" Deng Jianyan got up from the ground, refusing to back down.
"What's wrong with me?" Zhou Yue's tone softened immediately. She was so embarrassed by being exposed that she pulled the blanket over her head.
Without saying a word, Lao Zhou crawled inside, and the blankets stirred restlessly.
While in Guangzhou, it was indeed Zhou Yue who took the initiative.
That day, after bringing Xiao Jin back from shopping for clothes, Deng Jianyan lost his temper and couldn't be reasoned with. He then sulked and started smoking in the house.
Although Zhou Yue is stubborn, she is also sensible. At this time, she can't afford to have too much of a falling out with Xiao Jin, because his parenting style is just pushing the child away. So she patiently tries to coax him.
She locked the door from the inside, sat on the edge of the bed, and snatched his cigarette butt away.
"What are you doing!" Deng Jianyan impatiently pushed her hand away, trying to snatch it back, but she met Zhou Yue's gaze. Her small eyes were bright and sparkling, and her rosy lips were like a freshly picked cherry.
His mind stirred.
Since becoming engaged to Zhou Yue, the two have been in a tentative stage, having not even held hands yet, but knowing that they have feelings for each other.
During their trip together, they successfully found their daughter, and their relationship continued to grow stronger.
When Zhou Yue told Commander Zhou's old comrade that she was Xiao Jin's stepmother, he had already decided that no matter how difficult it was, he would marry Zhou Yue. He would be truly blind not to cherish such a woman.
Although I was annoyed with Zhou Yue for wasting money, her intentions were good, and I understand her good intentions. I just feel that this young lady is out of touch with the hardships of ordinary people and needs some guidance.
Now that she's lowered her pride and started acting coquettishly, he's lost all his temper.
He sighed, took the cigarette butt from Zhou Yue's hand, and stomped it out on the ground.
"Don't do that again, do you hear me?" His tone softened, but his attitude was still like he was talking to his daughter.
"No! I can do whatever I want. Even my dad doesn't care about me, so why should you?" Zhou Yue said defiantly.
"Fine, then I don't care anymore. I wasn't qualified anyway." Deng Jianyan's pride was hurt, and she got up to leave.
"Don't go! You don't want to care anymore, but I'll make you care!" Zhou Yue was scared, afraid that he would just leave like that, so in a moment of panic she grabbed him around the waist.
Zhou Yue was sitting on the bed when she hugged Deng Jianyan so tightly that he lost his balance and they both fell onto the bed, with Deng Jianyan on top of Zhou Yue.
The two locked eyes, already unable to contain themselves.
Zhou Yue was still a little scared. This was a hotel, and what if someone knocked on the door? She hurriedly struggled, and while she was still, Deng Jianyan's heart was in turmoil, and he could no longer control himself.
He lowered his head and kissed Zhou Yue on the lips.
Both of them were ready, but one of them was missing the initiative.
This kiss was like a thunderbolt striking the earth, igniting their hearts. Deng Jianyan's hands were already restless, slipping inside Zhou Yue's skirt and caressing her.
Zhou Yue lay there limply, letting him fool around, her face flushed with embarrassment, and she didn't dare to open her eyes.
Deng Jianyan understood her intentions at this point, picked her up and threw her to the middle of the bed, then pounced on her.
The relationship between a man and a woman is supposed to be one where it takes two to tango, but now it's the tacit understanding between the two that got things done effortlessly.
The two of them collapsed onto the bed, panting. Zhou Yue only then realized that Xiao Jin had been left standing in the hallway.
She hurriedly got up to tidy her clothes. Deng Jianyan, having tasted the sweetness, was reluctant to let go and hugged her, giving her a flurry of kisses. That's when the strawberry was planted.
"Alright, let's go back now. What if Xiao Jin runs away again?" Zhou Yue could only pull the child out, and this worked. Deng Jianyan walked towards the door sullenly.
It was during that time that Zhou Yue became pregnant.
After the two returned home, although the wedding was put on the agenda, there were too many Zhou family members, and with everyone watching, they couldn't go together.
After discovering she was pregnant, she finally went through with the proper channels. Zhou Yue experienced early pregnancy symptoms and vomited several times. Deng Jianyan, being a doctor herself, knew the seriousness of the situation and dared not act rashly.
Having endured until now, how could they bear it any longer? This belated wedding night was filled with boundless romance.
The next day, apart from my cousin's wife who went to the store early, everyone slept in late, and people didn't get up until after 10 o'clock.
It was already noon when Qin Xiaoyu came downstairs. She saw Zhou Yue and Deng Jianyan walking down the stairs hand in hand, their eyes looking like they were connected by a high voltage, making a crackling sound. She couldn't help but laugh.
Zhou Xing's mother cooked a big pot of porridge. Whoever got up could get a bowl. The side dishes were ready-made. Grandma Hanhan had pickled several large jars of various flavors, and people could take them out as they were eaten.
"Mom, why does a woman carry a baby for ten months?" Qin Xiaoyu asked mischievously.
"This child, asking strange questions again. Is it not October or March? Animals are cats in March and dogs in April." Zhou Xing's mother didn't understand.
"I mean, if she could give birth after only three months of pregnancy, Sister Xiaoyue would have given birth to a football team in less than three years." Qin Xiaoyu suppressed a laugh.
"So what if we have a football team? We can afford to support them," Deng Jianyan said proudly.
"Oh, right, there's something I haven't announced yet. My husband's research project has been approved, and the government has allocated funds for it. He's the project leader," Zhou Yue said proudly.
"Congratulations! That's wonderful news!" Qin Xiaoyu said with a smile.
"I'm just here to grab something to eat. The people in that room are still asleep," Qi Si said, rubbing his head as he walked in.
"Go get the porridge yourself," Zhou Xing's mother said without any hesitation.
"This side dish is my favorite." Qi Si specially added a small dish of spicy cabbage, sat down at the table facing Qin Xiaoyu, glanced at her, and hesitated to speak.
Qin Xiaoyu understood immediately. He hadn't come to beg for porridge; he had come to probe the situation. Then, thinking about what he and A Lei had talked about yesterday, she decided to try and get some information out of him.
"Brother, come here for a second." Qin Xiaoyu finished her porridge and looked up to see Qi Si still dawdling, so she called out to him.
"Here it comes!" Qi Si had been waiting for this sound, and he darted over in a flash.
The two of them went to the living room.
"What did you say to him yesterday?" Qin Xiaoyu and Qi Si asked in unison, their eyes widening as they were speechless.
"Brother, you should explain first," Qin Xiaoyu said quickly.
