Chapter 533 [Picky Eater]
Xin Che raised his eyes coldly and glanced at them: "Otherwise, do you want me to feed it to your mouths myself?"
"No, no, no, there's no need to be so considerate, General."
The recruits quickly thanked him and took the melon, then hesitantly put it into their mouths, not daring to make any noise while eating.
After seeing this scene, Jiang Lili hurriedly called Xin Che back. She was very confused. She couldn't imagine how fierce and cruel Xin Che was on the training ground. He scared her so much that she had to be cautious even when eating a melon.
At least looking at Xin Che who was feeding the honeydew melon to his mouth, Jiang Lili couldn't imagine what this man would look like when he got angry.
Jiang Lili was just about to take a bite of the honeydew melon when she suddenly felt a wave of nausea rising up her throat. She covered her mouth and turned her head to the side.
"No, no, I suddenly don't want to eat."
Jiang Lili didn't know why her taste buds and stomach had become extremely sensitive recently. She felt like vomiting the moment something she wanted to eat reached her lips, and couldn't eat any more. "I always smell something raw and cold."
She felt that she was being a little pretentious. She had already troubled Xin Che for a long time during the meal. Now she looked up at Xin Che nervously, afraid that he would be impatient, but she met a pair of affectionate eyes full of worry, and the autumn water in his eyes seemed to drown her.
Xin Che's eyes fell on Jiang Lili, who was curled up on the couch. He felt a strange feeling in his heart, and his face was a little panicked. He reached out and touched her forehead: "Where do you feel uncomfortable?"
Jiang Lili shook her head, her voice a little muffled: "I can't really put it into words, I just feel weak all over and a little dizzy."
Xin Che sat down beside her and held her in his arms: "You haven't had much appetite these days, did you catch a cold?"
"I don't know..." Jiang Lili shrank into his arms, "Have I been too pampered lately? I always make you worry."
Xin Che chuckled and gently combed her long hair with his slender fingers: "What nonsense are you talking about? Isn't it my duty to care about you?"
Jiang Lili raised her head and met his gentle gaze, her eyes suddenly getting hot: "But..."
"No buts." Xin Che interrupted her, lowered his head and placed a light kiss on her forehead, "I'll ask someone to ask Master Qi to come and take a look at you."
"Don't bother the squad leader, he's busy with the Shanyitang business lately..."
"But Master Qi told me that if you feel unwell, you can always ask him to come over. There's no need to be embarrassed to ask."
Xin Che stood up and gave instructions to the new recruits standing at the door.
He gently comforted Jiang Lili, "Your friends are all very concerned about you. Let others come and check on you so that everyone can feel at ease."
Jiang Lili's eyes sparkled with tears when she heard this. She felt so lucky to be able to travel back to ancient times and have such a group of caring friends to accompany her.
Soon, Qi Yun hurried over with a medicine box.
"Li Li, your body has been reacting abnormally recently. Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
He carefully took Jiang Lili's pulse. After a moment, he looked up at Jiang Lili and then at Xin Che.
Xin Che's heart skipped a beat when he saw Qi Yun's expression, and he became even more flustered. "Master Qi, what's going on?"
"Squad leader, I'm not suffering from a terminal illness, am I?"
Jiang Lili's thoughts were scattered rapidly, and despair began to appear on her face. "It's over. The medical conditions here haven't caught up yet, and you're the only modern doctor..."
"Congratulations, both of you." Qi Yun took his hand back, "Li Li is pregnant."
"What?" Jiang Lili sat up straight with her eyes wide open. She was not prepared at all.
Xin Che was also startled, then his eyes flashed with ecstasy. He hugged Jiang Lili into his arms, his voice trembling: "Really?"
Qi Yun smiled and said, "It's absolutely true. Li Li is two months pregnant, but her pulse is still weak and she needs to be taken care of."
"Li Li, you too, have you read so many novels and TV series? How come you can't even notice the luck effect when it happens to you?"
Qi Yun, who usually doesn't talk much, couldn't help but say a few more words out of concern: "Why didn't you call me earlier and prescribe a prescription earlier? You would have suffered less."
Although medical conditions in ancient times were not as advanced as those in modern times, ancient Chinese medicine was extensive and profound. He combined the best of both and had plenty of ways to help Jiang Lili relieve her discomfort.
"I, I don't know. I haven't thought about it that much."
Jiang Lili felt a buzzing in her ears and her vision went dark. She subconsciously grabbed Xin Che's sleeve and said in a trembling voice, "Xin Che, I..."
Xin Che noticed her strangeness and quickly supported her shoulders: "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
Jiang Lili shook her head, tears welling up in her almond-shaped eyes: "I... I'm a little scared..."
Seeing Jiang Lili's panic, Xin Che felt distressed and hugged her tightly in his arms: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
He gently stroked her back. "This is our first child. I will always be with you."
Jiang Lili leaned on his strong chest, listened to his strong heartbeat, and gradually calmed down.
She looked up, met his gentle gaze, and suddenly felt that everything was not so scary anymore.
She whispered, "Will you always stay with me?"
"Of course." Xin Che lowered his head and kissed away the tears from her eyes. He then patted her head with his big, broad hand. "From now on, I will always be by your side."
"If you're still nervous, I'll keep saying this until you get tired of me."
As a witness of happiness, Qi Yun ate a mouthful of dog food, happily put away the medicine box and went downstairs.
There was a class group chat, and the news that Jiang Lili was pregnant spread throughout the class immediately.
All the students in Beijing immediately put down what they were doing and came to visit their class favorite.
Jiang Lili was taking a nap on the couch when she heard a commotion outside. Just as she was about to get up to check, she saw several of her close friends file in, each clutching gift boxes of varying sizes.
Hou Xiaoxiao came over carrying a lot of bags. "Li Li, why didn't you tell me earlier that you were not feeling well? We came to accompany you right away. I wouldn't even make any money."
"You are not as important as making money!"
Jiang Lili was amused by Hou Xiaoxiao's words. She burst out laughing and her face became much more lively.
Guan Yue didn't know what to prepare. After all, Jiang Lili had much more items than them. She bought a lot at the market, including tiger-head hats, splashing drums, and small clay figurines. She bought everything she could use.
Of course, the most important thing was the gift prepared for Jiang Lili. Hearing that Jiang Lili was picky about food, she mobilized the power of so many bodyguards under her command to search for various special snacks that pregnant women also like to eat, and packed them all up.
"Li Li, look at what you want to eat. I've prepared a lot of takeout for you!"
"Let's try them one by one. Don't let yourself get away with it. Eat more so you have more strength."
