On the way home, Xiang Zhilan kept her head down, lost in thought.
The things Xin Zikai said to her these past two days seem to have a hidden meaning, and when you connect the dots...
He knew her biological parents or other blood relatives, which is why he inquired about her blood type.
So why bother inquiring about bone marrow registry information?
Yesterday he asked if she hated being abandoned and if she was willing to help, could it be that someone she knew who was related to her by blood was sick and needed to donate bone marrow?
Xiang Zhilan frowned, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case. After inquiring about her due date, he showed such a complicated and heavy expression. Could it be that he couldn't wait for her to give birth, which was why he was so hesitant to speak?
But that doesn't make sense. Xin Zikai has only been in Yihai City for a short time. How could he possibly know her relatives? She was abandoned when she was a child, and she doesn't even know where she's from or what her background is.
I can't figure it out.
Xiang Zhilan shook her head. Suddenly, the baby in her belly moved. She smiled and her attention was temporarily diverted.
When I got home, Shen Muzhi wasn't there.
Only after asking Butler Chen did I learn that Shen Muzhi had gone to the hospital to see Su Chengwen.
Su Chengwen suddenly woke up two days ago, seemingly because his condition had improved.
Even without Su Yan, Su Chengwen was still Shen Muzhi's elder, so it was natural for him to visit him.
Xiang Zhilan didn't take it to heart; she organized all the baby and maternity supplies she had bought that afternoon.
Some were for Fu Nuannuan, some were for her own use, and some were for the children.
Xiang Zhilan carried the little things out of the master bedroom.
Some time ago, Shen Muzhi set up a nursery opposite their master bedroom.
She was in charge of directing the construction of both cribs, while he did the actual building.
She separated the pink and blue clothes, and then bought two pieces of light yellow, which is suitable for both boys and girls, so that her two children could occasionally wear the same thing.
After placing them on their beds, she hummed a cheerful tune and walked out with light steps.
When it was time for dinner, Shen Muzhi had not returned yet, so she called him to ask if he was coming home for dinner.
She had no choice but to wait a while before calling back.
It was already 6:30, and he still hadn't returned, and he still wasn't answering his phone.
She had no choice but to eat by herself first. Perhaps because she had eaten too much in the afternoon, she didn't have a good appetite in the evening and was full after only half a bowl of rice.
"Madam, don't you like the shrimp today?" Butler Chen asked, seeing that the shrimp hadn't been touched. He wondered if he should tell Chef Wang to change the flavor.
"No," Xiang Zhilan shook her head; she hadn't touched the shrimp at all.
Ah Fang smiled as she cleared away the dishes and said, "Madam is used to her husband peeling shrimp for her. Of course, she didn't think of eating them when no one was peeling them for her."
Several maids chuckled softly, and Butler Chen smiled as well, then coughed lightly and said seriously, "Go and get to work."
Xiang Zhilan blushed from their laughter and had to admit that what Afang had just said was the truth.
When she ate with Shen Muzhi, he would always prepare the food for her with the shells on, so she could just eat it. She never expected that in such a short time, she would even develop this habit, and she was practically turning into a lazy good-for-nothing.
She absolutely mustn't let him peel them next time; she has to break this bad habit, otherwise, will she still be able to eat shrimp after she leaves him?
"What's going on outside?" Xiang Zhilan asked Steward Chen, turning her head as she heard the clattering sounds coming from the courtyard.
"It was Mr. Chen who ordered the children's slide, swing, and seesaw to be installed," Butler Chen laughed. "He even chose the style himself."
Xiang Zhilan was helpless. He had already set aside a piece of land to build a small roller skating rink and even said he wanted to build a swimming pool. He was going to turn the yard into a children's playground. She suspected that he would spoil her two babies after she gave birth to them.
He's clever enough to play the role of a doting father even before the children are born. She'll be forced to be a strict mother later, otherwise who will take care of the children? He's really cunning.
