Xiang Nanzhi's face was sunburned. Before going to the hot spring, she spent a fortune on skincare. The redness on her skin from the high altitude faded a little and she regained some of her fair complexion, but it was still not as good as before.
The sun is very strong!
When Xiang Nanzhi went to the closet to pick out clothes, she found that many of her clothes no longer fit. She couldn't fit into those fashionable designer clothes and could only wear loose-fitting dresses.
She usually likes to wear clothes that show off her figure, and she doesn't own many of these loose-fitting dresses; she's tired of wearing them all.
Xiang Nanzhi never imagined that she would one day end up with nothing to wear, but she had to look good when she went out, so she had Ma Xiaorong call her usual store and choose a dress that was slightly better in terms of quality and style.
It looks quite presentable, and the style is very pretty, but her belly is really hard to hide.
Before, it was possible to cover it up a little, but now that it's been over five months, it's getting bigger every day.
Xiang Nanzhi was also a little hesitant to wear high heels, so she casually put on a pair of platform shoes and let her hair fall loosely. She was taken aback.
Why has she suddenly become less beautiful, and even somewhat rustic in her refined manner?
Pregnancy is never pretty; you're not perfect anymore, you don't have a waist, just a belly.
Xiang Nanzhi asked the driver to take her to the hot spring resort, where Shen Shixun was already waiting for her at the entrance.
The man clearly knew her rules: one must be presentable when going out. He had changed his clothes specifically for this occasion, wearing a well-tailored suit that she had picked out for him beforehand.
He doesn't buy things himself, nor does he like to shop in those places; he'll make do as long as he has something to wear.
Standing at the entrance of the hot spring resort, he seemed to have run into an acquaintance. He exchanged a few words with the slightly chubby man who entered, and smiled and nodded. His profile was particularly handsome.
The lights shone on him, and he looked even more perfect than a model.
Who is it?
The man took her hand. "The project contact person."
Xiang Nanzhi noticed that no matter how much sun he basked in, his skin tone remained the same—a wheatish, dark complexion—but it wouldn't get any darker.
The man led her inside, and Xiang Nanzhi suddenly felt as if he was protecting her.
He is not stage-frightened and can be at ease anywhere.
The hot spring room was arranged by Xiang Nanzhi in advance. As soon as they arrived, the two changed their clothes and came out of their respective changing rooms.
"Would you care for something to eat."
"What about you? I've already eaten."
Shen Shixun smiled and touched her belly.
The clothes in the hot spring room are pure cotton shirts and pants, the same for both men and women, so Xiang Nanzhi was also wearing pants, but her belly was a bit big, so the pants looked a bit strange.
"Do I look ugly like this?"
"It's not bad-looking."
The man squatted down, his whole demeanor softening. He knelt on one knee and lowered his head to kiss her belly.
Xiang Nanzhi took a step back. "But I feel like my figure has gone out of shape, it's deformed."
"Zhizhi, you are beautiful."
Xiang Nanzhi smiled and patted the man's head. "Get up quickly. I'm not your ancestor. Don't kneel before me."
"You are my ancestor."
He truly loves children; seeing her belly grow bigger every day, he can already imagine how adorable the baby will be after birth.
The child Xiang Nanzhi gives birth to will be just as adorable as her...
He grabbed her hand and kissed the back of it again.
Xiang Nanzhi was soaking in the hot spring, her hair styled in a bun. Shen Shixun was holding her, his strong bones and muscles visible beneath his cotton clothes. She leaned against the man's chest and said, "Why did we have a child?"
"Because of us..."
"Don't you think life is amazing? Just because we've been through this, we can have children. They will carry our genes and grow little by little inside my belly, and then be born as independent individuals..."
Do you want to?
“I didn’t want to before, but Shen Shixun, you are a very good person, and I hope the child will be like you.”
After saying that, Xiang Nanzhi slapped her mouth, "No, no, I just hope that your personality and character are like yours, but not as dark as you, no..."
The man cupped her face and kissed her. "Zhizhi, I want to have many, many children with you."
In the early part of the month, although Xiang Nanzhi was heavily pregnant, she ate and drank as usual.
I don't have any dietary restrictions; I eat whatever makes me feel comfortable.
Sometimes, when I'm busy, I completely forget that I'm pregnant, and I don't feel a strong sense of the baby's presence.
But now that her belly is showing, Xiang Nanzhi has more things to consider. She thinks about how to give birth to the baby in a few months, since her belly is getting bigger.
Just thinking about it makes my blood run cold...
Soaking in the hot spring, Xiang Nanzhi was covered in sweat. The man held her, his hands on her body, and tried to kiss her again. Xiang Nanzhi resisted and pushed him away slightly, saying, "I don't want to."
The man was taken aback. Xiang Nanzhi looked at him and said, "I don't want to have many children. I'm afraid of the pain."
Shen Shixun's smile deepened, and Xiang Nanzhi could feel the man's broad and muscular build through his thin clothes...
After soaking for a while and feeling more relaxed, Xiang Nanzhi changed her clothes and had some snacks with Shen Shixun at the hot spring resort.
On such occasions, she prefers French food, which is notoriously expensive and has small portions. Shen Shixun wasn't full, so after eating a little with her, he went to order Chinese food.
Xiang Nanzhi went to have Chinese food with him again.
Although he comes from the grasslands, he loves Sichuan cuisine, especially twice-cooked pork, boiled sliced pork, and all kinds of meat. He also enjoys a few slices of watermelon after his meal. It's absolutely delicious.
Xiang Nanzhi watched as he mixed scrambled eggs with tomatoes into his rice and ate two bowls in one go.
