Chapter 289 So, how many sleepless nights did he have?
The next day.
Shen Xichuan had a meeting to attend in the morning, so after making breakfast, he hurried out.
After Xu Jialan finished breakfast, he suddenly thought of what Shen Xichuan said last night.
She paused, stood up, and walked into the study.
During this period, she spent much less time in the study.
On the contrary, Shen Xichuan stayed longer than her.
According to the housekeeper, after she fell asleep, Shen Xichuan would go to the study alone and stay there for several hours.
Xu Jialan glanced around and saw the neatly arranged books on the table.
It's all about prenatal and postnatal care.
Without opening it, you can see that the pages are covered with labels.
Colorful.
The handwriting is Shen Xichuan's.
Xu Jialan paused, put his hand on his stomach, slowly walked to the table, and picked up a book at random.
She opened it and found many precautions densely marked inside.
When she was in high school, she had seen Shen Xichuan's notes.
He was very smart and had a clear mind, so his notes were almost always very concise and clear.
But this book is different.
He seemed less confident than before and wrote a lot of notes that needed attention.
It was so detailed that Xu Jialan felt he could publish a new book on his own.
She slowly turned the pages of most of the book.
This is true on every page.
And there is another pile on the table.
It is also covered with colorful labels.
Xu Jialan looked at the pile of books quietly, lost in thought.
I have to read so many books and fill so many notes...
So, how many sleepless nights did he have?
…
August and September are the hottest months.
Xu Jialan was wearing a maternity dress made of protective material, curled up on the sofa and ate the summer-cooling dessert made by Shen Xichuan.
An Yuening also had a bowl.
She ate the dessert in the bowl and couldn't help but sigh.
Who would have thought that the arrogant and unruly Mr. Shen is actually a wife slave at home who can make desserts to please his wife?
Suddenly I thought of something.
An Yuening looked at Xu Jialan, "Lanlan, how are you going to celebrate your birthday?"
Xu Jialan's birthday is at the end of August.
It's only a few days away.
Xu Jialan paused and said, "Let's have a meal together?"
She hadn't thought about it either.
Over the years, except when Xu's father and mother were alive, they would carefully prepare birthday parties for her.
In the years that followed, she rarely celebrated her birthday.
In addition to Mr. and Mrs. Liang, Gu Ziwei and others, An Yuening will also prepare a birthday surprise for her.
No one else would remember her birthday.
She didn't think much about it.
I don't want to trouble others, so I won't pass it.
An Yuening was stunned. "Just a meal? That simple?"
Xu Jialan nodded, "Just keep it simple."
Now she is very satisfied.
An Yuening seemed to be hesitant to speak.
But in the end he didn't speak.
She stayed with Xu Jialan for a few hours and then left.
…
downstairs.
An Yuening walked out of the elevator.
I just happened to see the man leaning against the car.
She sighed silently and walked over. "I asked for you, but Lanlan might not really want to celebrate her birthday. She just wants a simple meal."
Shen Xichuan raised his eyes and nodded, “I understand. Thank you for your help, sister-in-law.”
An Yuening paused after hearing this address and said, "Actually, Lanlan also likes surprises. It's just that after her uncle and aunt left, she didn't want to bother others, so she didn't want to celebrate her birthday."
"If you prepare a birthday surprise for her, she will definitely be very happy."
After losing his parents and in the days without Shen Xichuan, it was An Yuening who accompanied Xu Jialan all the way to the present.
Witnessed a lot.
In Shen Xichuan's eyes, An Yuening is not only their sister-in-law, but also a very important family member of Xu Jialan.
The status is naturally different.
He nodded seriously, "Don't worry, I will make sure she has the happiest birthday."
"That's good." An Yuening glanced at the time, "I won't say any more. Your brother should hurry up."
After she finished speaking, she waved her hand and left.
Shen Xichuan took out a candy from his pocket, peeled off the candy wrapper, and put it in his mouth.
His eyes darkened slightly as he slowly crushed the hard candy.
After a moment, he walked into the building.
…
Shen Xichuan pressed the code and opened the door.
I saw Xu Jialan leaning on the sofa, flipping through the book in his hand.
She recently enjoys reading knitting books.
Hearing the noise, Xu Jialan raised his head, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes, "Didn't you say you would be back late today?"
Shen Xichuan smiled gently and walked over, “Just finished my work, so I came back early.”
He leaned over and placed a warm kiss on her forehead.
"I brought you your favorite cake."
Before, Xu Jialan accidentally tasted the cake from a store.
She liked the taste.
Later, Shen Xichuan would often bring her a piece.
What Xu Jialan didn't know was that the shop had been acquired by Shen's after she said she liked their cakes.
The cakes she ate were all made with ingredients that pregnant women could eat.
It won't put any burden on your body.
Xu Jialan was very surprised. He reached out to take the small cake, opened it, picked up the small fork inside, and took a bite.
It's that familiar taste.
She slightly curved her bright eyes and fed the man a bite.
"Is it tasty?"
Shen Xichuan's eyes were doting, and he nodded, "It's delicious."
He asked the housekeeper to pour a glass of warm water and asked, "Is your sister-in-law here today?"
Xu Jialan hummed, "I asked her for some experimental materials, and she brought them to me."
Shen Xichuan’s eyelashes moved, and his tone was lazy, “Is that so.”
"What else can I do?"
Xu Jialan looked at him strangely.
Shen Xichuan lowered his eyes to look at her, curled the corners of his mouth, raised his hand and wiped the corners of her lips, “Nothing.”
"Do you like the flavor today?"
The cake shop launches different flavors every day.
It's pure luck which flavor you buy.
Xu Jialan nodded, "It's delicious, but the milk tea flavor is even better."
She likes milk tea.
One time I happened to eat a small piece of milk tea flavored cake.
The taste is very special.
She likes it very much.
Shen Xichuan brought her a glass of water, “Okay, I’ll bring you milk tea flavor tomorrow.”
"Drink some water."
Xu Jialan originally wanted to ask him how he knew that the cake shop would make milk tea flavor tomorrow?
She looked at the water that was handed to her lips and forgot to ask.
…
The 25th.
Early in the morning, Xu Jialan was so hungry that he couldn't sleep.
After she got up, she didn’t see Shen Xichuan.
When the housekeeper saw her come out, he greeted her respectfully, "Madam."
Xu Jialan nodded, "Where's Achuan?"
The housekeeper remembered Shen Xichuan’s instructions and lowered his head, “The master went out early in the morning. It seems that there was an emergency at the company. He said he would come back later to have dinner with his wife. Madam, don’t worry.”
Xu Jialan said "oh" and didn't ask any more questions.
In recent days, Shen Xichuan has often been busy until late.
It seems to be something about a new project.
She didn't quite understand, so she could only remember to call him to eat when he was busy.
