Bai Xiaoruo was starving, so she didn't stay lying with him and quickly ran to eat the dinner that Fang Peiru had brought her.
Strangely enough, she felt nauseous when she smelled the honey bread, but she ate the food that Fang Peiru brought with great relish.
She wolfed down her food, as if afraid someone would take it from her.
Although there were a few pieces of greasy meat, the overall meal was quite light. I also brought her some nourishing soup and Jian Yuemei's homemade pickled radish, which was particularly appetizing.
Seeing how happily she was eating, Xuan Mingyu was getting a little hungry.
However, he cannot eat these meals yet. For the next few days, he can only rely on intravenous nutrition. He will be able to eat when he recovers and can sit up.
After finishing her meal, Bai Xiaoruo licked her lips with lingering satisfaction and closed the lunchbox.
"Are you full?"
"Mmm, I'm full. Next time I'll have to ask Mom to bring me more pickled radishes, they're so delicious!"
Hsien Ming-yu laughed and said, "You used to call me 'Auntie' so timidly, how come you changed your tune so quickly now?"
"I hadn't regained my memory back then, and I was just your girlfriend. How could I change my mind so quickly?"
"She was my girlfriend before she regained her memories, and now that she has, you officially consider her my wife?"
Bai Xiaoruo stood with her hands on her hips, glaring angrily at the man lying on the bed. "What? You're not happy about it?"
“I couldn’t be happier. Little Ruo’er, once I can stand up, let’s go get our marriage certificate. After the baby is born, we should also have a proper wedding ceremony.”
Bai Xiaoru skipped back to Xuan Mingyu's bed and lay down beside him. "Why do we have to wait until the baby is born to have the wedding? Do you think I'll look ugly when my belly is big?"
"Silly girl, what nonsense are you thinking about again? How could I think you're ugly?" He patted her head. "You're already having a hard time while pregnant, and the whole wedding day will be exhausting. I'm just worried about you."
"Really? But when we had our wedding before, I didn't feel tired at all, except that I sat for a long time while getting my makeup done."
“How can things be the same before and now? I didn’t like you back then, and the wedding was a perfunctory affair; many of the procedures that should have been completed were not followed.”
At that time, she was just wearing a wedding dress and makeup, and going through a ceremony in the hall. Originally, she was supposed to be carried to the ancestral hall of the Xian family to kneel and pay respects, to offer tea to the elders, and there were also banquet toasts and so on... At that time, Xian Mingyu felt disgusted even looking at Bai Xiaoruo. Marrying her was like having the worst luck in eight lifetimes.
But things are different now. He can't get enough of looking at her every day, and he even thinks she's getting more and more beautiful. He wishes he could hide her away and not let anyone touch her. If he could move now, the first thing he would do when he wakes up is to devour her.
"Okay, you're right. Oh, honey, you're so good to me~" She rubbed his face with her hands, over and over again, never getting enough of pinching it, having a lot of fun.
Xuan Mingyu rolled his eyes at her, "You're just taking advantage of me while I can't move. Once I'm back on my feet, I'll see how I deal with you."
In all his years, which woman had ever dared to pinch his face so brazenly? Only her, taking advantage of his pampering, had become increasingly arrogant and unrestrained.
He used to be so scared that he would run far away if I touched her, as if he was afraid he would eat her up.
"No way, I'm so good to you, how could I be bullying you?" She rubbed him while trying to laugh. "Honey, the more I look at you, the cuter you seem. I used to think you were so fierce, and I wouldn't even let you touch me, but now you've obediently fallen into my hands."
"Bai Xiaoruo, so this is your true face, isn't it?"
"Otherwise, do you think I'm still like before, being a pushover for you to boss around every day? Hmph, don't even think about it. I've been through the motions of life for the past four years, and I'm not that naive little girl anymore. If I were still being suppressed by you like before, then marrying you would be too oppressive."
"Honey, do you know? I feel so happy right now. I have you, Youyou, and Grandpa. And during the time you were in a coma, I got along really well with your parents. They both love me so much, just like I'm their own daughter... All the family love I've longed for for so many years has suddenly become complete."
He took her soft, white hand and played with it. "You can't just say things like that. What do you mean by 'like my own daughter'? I don't really want to be your brother and sister."
Bai Xiaoruo was amused by Xuan Mingyu's serious expression. "I was just saying. I don't really want a brother that old."
Who are you calling old?
"No, I was just saying my husband is handsome... Okay, don't be angry anymore. Anyway, I'm going to spend the rest of my life with you. I'm yours for life."
"That's more like it."
Bai Xiaoruo chuckled, hugged Xian Mingyu's face, and kissed him repeatedly. She just loved being so affectionate with him, and she could never get enough of it.
“I remember you used to dislike children, and you would always run away as far away as possible whenever you saw them.”
"I would love any child you give birth to, even if you gave birth to a hundred."
"You wish! A hundred more! Giving birth is very painful! When I gave birth to Youyou, I slipped and went into premature labor. Then I had a difficult delivery, which was very dangerous. I almost didn't make it back."
"And then?" This was the first time Xuan Mingyu had heard Bai Xiaoruo talk about these things; she rarely mentioned anything about Youyou's growth to him.
The thought of her difficult childbirth before made Xian Mingyu's heart jump into his throat. What if she was in danger again this time?
I should have taken precautions and not tried to conceive so soon; who knew I'd get pregnant again so quickly.
