The next day, Shen Beian had dark circles under his eyes.
"Did you think about this all night?" Gu Nanyan had finished washing up and gently wiped Shen Bei'an's face with a damp towel. "Why are your dark circles so dark? Is An'an trying to look like a panda?"
Shen Bei'an sat on the bed and pouted, "Yan Yan, why do I feel like you don't have any joy about becoming a mother?"
It's exactly the same as before.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have kept it a secret for so long without knowing.
Why does it feel like this child is someone he begged for?
Wait a minute, it seems about the same.
“An’an, joy doesn’t have to be on your face all the time. He/she is the fruit of our love, so of course I love him/her.” Gu Nan’an shook his head and said softly, “Let’s change our clothes first. We’ve arrived at the port, and the plane is waiting.”
The event started early, mainly for guests who still had to work or attend classes.
"Um, Yan Yan, besides me, who else knows about your pregnancy?" Shen Bei'an was still a little hesitant. It was clearly his own wife who was pregnant, but for some reason, he just felt something was off.
"No one else has told us yet, only you and I know." Gu Nanyan pulled Shen Bei'an to his feet, his voice full of affection. "Go wash up and change your clothes first."
It seemed no different from usual, just another ordinary day, yet it possessed a strange gentleness, a comforting tranquility that made one unable to resist immersing oneself in it.
"Then how did you know you were pregnant?" Shen Bei'an asked, puzzled.
Gu Nanyan remained calm and said, "An'an forgot? There are all kinds of equipment at Xiaozhu. All of those devices come with instructions for use, or they are very intelligent. You can just lie down in them."
Gu Nanyan has never told Shen Bei'an that she is knowledgeable in medicine, and that her medical talent is in no way inferior to Ziya Jingmo's!
Shen Bei'an suddenly realized, "That's right, so when do you plan to tell your parents?" She jumped to the ground with a somersault, slipped on her slippers, and came to Gu Nan'an's side, her peach blossom eyes sparkling as she looked at her.
His eyes shone with undisguised joy.
"No rush, An'an, you can tell them if you want to."
"Okay, baby, go wash up first, okay? If you have any other questions, we can talk about them when we get home. Besides, we'll be heading back to Yunding Mountain soon, okay?" It was a tone used to coax a child.
Shen Beian pouted and walked towards the bathroom, muttering to himself, "Hmph, it seems like I'm the only one who's worried. My wife isn't excited at all, and she's not worried at all."
He was brushing his teeth absentmindedly when he peeked through the door and saw Meng Zhaojun coming over, carrying something and seemingly handling some business.
Oh, my wife is so busy! She's pregnant and still has so many things to do.
etc.
Shen Beian suddenly spat out the foam in his mouth, braced his arms on the washbasin, and looked at himself in the mirror.
He remembered Yan Yan saying that the capital would be in chaos, the empire would be in chaos, and it might even affect the whole world.
So, at this time, Yan Yan became pregnant...
Will it have a significant impact?
Shen Beian was startled by the thought that suddenly popped into his mind and shook his head repeatedly, trying to get rid of it.
No no no
Although the child's arrival was somewhat unexpected, it was something they had fought for.
How could someone have such thoughts?
He casually touched his face, changed his robes, and strode out.
"Sir." Meng Zhaojun bowed her head slightly. Her attire today was almost identical to yesterday's, except that she had changed her brocade skirt into a blouse with arrow-sleeved sleeves, which added a touch of competence to her gentleness.
"Hmm." Shen Bei'an nodded and looked at Gu Nan'an, "Ah Yan, have you finished handling things here?"
Gu Nanyan raised the tablet in his hand. "An'an, let's talk about it when we get home, okay?"
Shen Bei'an could only nod. "Then I'll go have breakfast first. You should go have breakfast early too, after all..." He was a twin.
Shen Bei'an didn't say the last sentence; he didn't know if Gu Nan'an had told Meng Zhaojun.
Even though Meng Zhaojun was one of Gu Nanyan's closest confidantes.
"good."
Upon receiving Gu Nanyan's reply, Shen Beian stepped out.
He had no idea what Gu Nanyan and Meng Zhaojun talked about.
We went straight to the restaurant on the third floor, which was already packed with people.
Fu Mutian leaned closer and winked at Shen Beian, "Did you have a wonderful night last night?"
The soundproofing panels on the ship are made of very good materials, so it's impossible for outsiders to know what's done in the rooms.
Based on experience, something is bound to happen on birthday nights.
"Wow, what's with your dark circles?" Fu Mutian was the first to notice Shen Bei'an's face, which looked like a national treasure.
"No, surely the eldest young master wouldn't keep you up all night?" Fu Mutian guessed, her voice lower and her voice closer to him.
Shen Bei'an slapped Fu Mutian away from leaning against him, "What are you thinking about? Nothing, nothing else." He decisively changed the subject, "What's for breakfast this morning?"
His brows were furrowed with exhaustion, and his eyelids seemed about to close.
"Oh, oh, oh, oh, breakfast from all over the country is available, and of course, your favorite crab roe buns. The crabs were just caught this morning, they're huge!" Fu Mutian got up early and went to the deck to see them, and even played with the crabs for a while.
"Mmm." Shen Bei'an was still somewhat listless, and even his favorite crab roe buns didn't look appealing.
The remaining two members of the Beijing F4 also came over.
Sheng Jingchen and Ye Lin were also surprised to see the dark circles under Shen Bei'an's eyes. "Beibei, how late did you and the eldest young master's passionate battle last night?"
Although one of them was unmarried and the other was married, they were both quite knowledgeable about that kind of thing.
He can say it off the cuff.
Shen Beian said with a dark face, "No! Other things, let's go, let's have breakfast, aren't you all hungry?" He left quickly.
What kind of friends are they?
Fu Mutian, Sheng Jingchen, and Ye Lin looked at each other in bewilderment.
Who has offended their Fifth Master Shen?
Wasn't everything fine last night?
What's going on today?
Could it be that he is unsatisfied?
And so, the grand birthday banquet came to an end.
The guests were sent back the way they came.
As for Shen Bei'an, he returned on a plane with Gu Nan'an and Meng Zhaojun.
Upon returning to Biluo Xiaozhu, I didn't go to the main house, but went straight to the study.
"Yan Yan, tell me the truth, are you plotting something? Is this child coming at the wrong time?" Shen Bei'an made his words very clear, and his face, which was usually indifferent to worldly affairs, became more serious.
"Why do you say that, An'an?" Gu Nan'an calmly closed the door, gestured for Shen Bei'an to sit down, poured him a glass of water, and handed it to him. "Take your time, what's the rush?"
The water here is always drinkable.

Love doesn't have to be dramatic; a gentle, flowing love is just as good.
First day of school (I want to go home... I want to sleep...)
