Hearing her reproachful words, Gu Yanbai's eyes were filled with laughter, and the smile on his lips was almost overflowing.
He looked her over a few times and comforted her, "I think this is just right."
Actually, you haven't gained weight; it's just that the baby in your belly has grown, making your waist appear thicker.
However, it's not a big deal. We can just go to the street and buy a few loose-fitting clothes tomorrow.
"I'll buy more later when my belly gets bigger, it's no big deal!"
Su Nianxue glared at him, "You're quite generous, but were you talking about the clothes?"
All you do is flatter me all day long. Look at my waist, it's gotten so much thicker.
Moreover, I'm absolutely certain it has nothing to do with the child; these are all real, solid muscles that have grown during this period.
She gently pinched her waist with both hands, confirming her judgment once again.
Seeing her coquettish eyes, Gu Yanbai's smile deepened, and he patiently coaxed her, "You're not fat. I like you the way you are. I think you look great."
Upon hearing this, Su Nianxue blushed slightly. "Gu Yanbai, we're talking about serious matters. Don't keep interrupting."
He's always so glib and smooth-talking; all he does is try to fool me.
"Okay, I won't interrupt. I'll definitely... watch it carefully!"
…………
"That's it," Gu Yanbai concluded. "My waist is a bit bigger than before. But it's good to have gained some weight; it looks much better than before when my waist was the same size from front to back."
He seemed somewhat unsatisfied...
"Gu Yanbai, take your hands off me. Are you sure you're trying to comfort me?" She slapped his hand away, her face showing a mixture of embarrassment and annoyance.
She did lose some weight before, but not to the point of being exactly the same before and after!
He was clearly mocking her!
"You know I'm bad with words!"
"Gu Yanbai, you're just giving me the runaround! When we argue, you go on and on, spouting off a whole bunch of reasons, but you never stop."
"I'm asking you to speak now, but you're not saying a word. Tell me, isn't this just being perfunctory?" Su Nianxue pouted, looking unhappy.
"When have I ever been perfunctory with you? Alright, then tell me what you want to hear about, and I'll tell you!" Gu Yanbai was a little bald, and his personality was becoming increasingly strange.
No wonder Grandpa had repeatedly warned him that pregnant women are often eccentric and that he must be patient and accommodating towards them.
Now he wholeheartedly agrees: you can't do this without patience!
"Forget it, I don't want to listen anymore, I'm going to sleep!" She was losing interest and didn't want to continue the topic.
"A new batch of clothes arrived a few days ago. I'll take you to the store to take a look tomorrow!"
"I'll take you to Siyuan for a bit, and give you a change of pace. You get tired of eating the same thing all the time." Gu Yanbai murmured in the darkness.
“Okay! I haven’t been to town for a while, and I really miss the taste of Siyuan.” She immediately became interested again.
"It's no big deal, why are you upset about something like this? We can go whenever we want in the future!" Gu Yanbai waved his hand, a big smile curving his lips.
"Yes, I love hearing that!"
"Then, I'll refrain from playing PUBG for a while!"
"Yes! I completely agree with that!"
He thought for a moment and then said, "Then, let's buy bones to eat every day these days."
"You don't like soup? Then you can drink soup from now on. Yanliu can take care of the meat and bones."
"Won't I gain weight if I drink soup?" Su Nianxue looked at him with suspicion. Was he playing a trick on her?
"Probably not. Think about it, you used to drink soup every day, how come you didn't gain weight?" Gu Yanbai said sincerely, without any intention of teasing her.
"That's true!"
"but,………"
Su Nianxue got impatient, "But what? Can't you just say it all at once? Your stammering is driving me crazy!"
"Look at your temper, why are you so impatient now?"
"I mean, we need to buy a few more outfits tomorrow." He gave her a mischievous look, his eyes sparkling with amusement.
"I told you I've gained a lot of weight, didn't I?" Su Nianxue glared at him, annoyed.
He pinched her nose. "No, I think you look absolutely gorgeous right now."
But this outfit is too eye-catching; I'm not going to let anyone see it!
He's already decided that she should wear this at home from now on!
However, you have to change your clothes before going out.
After all, if some things were seen by others, wouldn't that be a huge loss?
"You really think it looks good?" She tilted her head back, smiling warmly.
"You're beautiful. In my eyes, you're beautiful no matter what." He patted her shoulder gently. "Go to sleep. Let's go to town early tomorrow."
The next day, Gu Yanbai rode his bicycle and took her away first.
Before leaving, Su Nianxue said, "Yanliu, we're leaving now. We'll leave the rest to you."
I'll wait for you in town. Let's go to the clothing store together later!
"Okay, you guys go ahead, I'll be there in a bit." What else could she say when she heard they were going to a clothing store?
