"Sweetheart, Song Heng will handle this himself." Lu Jingyan pulled Shi Wan into his arms, resting his chin on her forehead.
"Wanwan." A deep male voice came from above.
"Hmm?" Shi Wan glanced at Lu Jingyan, her fingers lightly tracing his jawline.
"How about we go back to Y country tomorrow?"
Shi Wan got up from Lu Jingyan's arms, a hint of joy flashing in her eyes.
"Can I go now?" she asked, her voice a mix of happiness and worry as she looked at her slightly protruding belly.
"There won't be any problems. We'll take a private plane there. There's a professional medical team in Country Y."
“But long-haul flights can affect the body’s hormonal balance, and your aunt will be worried. And what about your aunt and uncle…” Shi Wan pursed her lips.
Knowing Shi Wan's concerns, Lu Jingyan leaned down and kissed the corner of her lips, his voice soft, "I didn't expect Wanwan to be ready to be a mother."
"You!" Shi Wan pinched Lu Jingyan's shoulder.
Faced with the woman's mild punishment, Lu Jingyan looked at Shi Wan seriously and said, "I want my parents-in-law to feel at ease entrusting you to me. At least they should know that I will protect you from now on, okay?"
"Jingyan..." Shi Wan suddenly leaned her head on Lu Jingyan's shoulder.
My nose felt sore, and some words were stuck in my throat, unable to be spoken.
He remembered that it would be the anniversary of Shi Wan's parents' death in another month.
Suddenly remembering something, she looked up and asked, "Have you been to the cemetery before?"
She remembers that on the day her parents were buried, after everyone had left, she returned to the cemetery alone, where a bunch of lisianthus flowers were placed in front of the tombstone.
"Well... I know my mother-in-law likes bellflowers. It all happened so suddenly that the funeral was already over when I arrived."
"Wanwan, I'm sorry, it wasn't me who was with you during that time."
Lu Jingyan tucked Shi Wan's stray hairs behind her ear. "Back then, you almost fainted in his arms, and I wanted nothing more than to snatch you away. But I was also afraid. You love him, and I should respect that. I should let go, but all these years I can't bear not seeing you."
"This time, God has given me a chance. If I don't seize it, even God will not forgive me."
Lu Jingyan reached out and pressed Shi Wan's forehead to his lips, whispering, "Wanwan, I won't lose you again."
Shi Wan wrapped her arms around Lu Jingyan's waist and nodded gently, "Yes... Mom and Dad should be very relieved to have you by my side now."
"Then Wanwan, shouldn't you feel sorry for me?" As he spoke, he gave Shi Wan's waist a mischievous pinch with one hand.
At the same time, Shi Wan's body tensed up, and her waist muscles contracted.
"Don't move, or I'll tell your aunt." Shi Wan glared at Lu Jingyan.
Previously, Lu Jingyan had hugged and kissed Shi Wan repeatedly. The next morning, Lu's mother discovered dark circles under Shi Wan's eyes. Upon questioning, she found out that Lu Jingyan was up to his old tricks again.
All day long, Lu's mother sent Lu's father to the company to take charge, while Lu Jingyan spent the whole day memorizing a guide for couples during pregnancy under his mother's supervision.
"Wanwan, in order to be able to return to Y country this time, I went back to the Chu family and did two days of persuasion with those elders before they reluctantly agreed."
"That brat Chu Ningxuan knew I was taking you back to Y country, and he kicked me out." But Chu Ningxuan ended up getting kicked twice by him instead.
He didn't say the last sentence to Shi Wan.
"Really? Brother Ning Xuan has this ability?" Shi Wan looked incredulous.
"President Lu is all-powerful in Kyoto. Who would dare to go against your wishes? Who would stop you from doing whatever you want?"
Given Lu Jingyan's status and position, anyone who dares to mess with him is simply incredibly audacious.
Parentheses: Except for Shi Wan.
"Of course, if you don't believe me, look at my back, it's covered in bruises."
Lu Jingyan looked pitifully at Shi Wan, and with his other hand he deliberately pulled down his white shirt to reveal the firm muscles on his back, and poked a certain spot with his fingertip as he moved closer to Shi Wan.
There were no bruises or wounds.
But the half-hidden white shirt, paired with dark skin and smooth muscle lines, creates an inexplicably tense visual effect.
That bastard, what's with all the fuss in broad daylight?
Shi Wan unconsciously swallowed.
"You, you hurry up and pack your things. If you keep talking nonsense, I'll tell your aunt."
After saying that, she rubbed her flushed cheeks and hurriedly ran out of the bedroom. The rising temperature in the room made her throat feel dry and itchy.
