"Then don't worry about so many unnecessary things. I thought so too, I just didn't realize it at first," Chen Lu said with a smile.
He wasn't opposed to it in the first place, but who the hell expected it to happen so soon?
The double happiness symbol still hasn't been taken down from the window.
After finishing his meal with mixed feelings, Chen Lu asked Liang Zhirou to take a test again.
The result was the same: two lines, one dark and one light.
Chen Lu sat in front of the sofa, his expression still complicated, but a faint smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Chen Lu, I'm going to be a mother."
This time, it was Liang Zhirou who spoke first.
It was impossible to tell whether she was happy or nervous; all that was clear was that the girl spoke with utmost seriousness.
Upon hearing this, Chen Lu suddenly felt a little dazed. He unbuttoned Liang Zhirou's pajamas and reached out to touch her smooth, flat stomach.
I leaned over and listened for a while, but there didn't seem to be any other noises, just the natural gurgling sounds from my stomach.
He thought he would hear the legendary fetal movement—it was his first time becoming a father, and all his experience came from various TV dramas.
Chen Lu could only gently kiss the girl's lower abdomen, then looked up and asked:
How are you feeling right now? Is there anything that's bothering you?
Liang Zhirou shook her head blankly.
"Not at all? Dizziness, weakness, or nausea or anything like that?"
He remembered that in TV dramas, the characters would argue with their boyfriends, then suddenly cover their mouths and go to the bathroom, only to find out they were pregnant shortly afterward.
This silly guy didn't feel like throwing up.
Liang Zhirou pondered for a long time, then tilted her head at him, "I feel... a little full?"
Chen Lu: "......"
Life is like a train ride you've never taken before; you never know what kind of scenery awaits you at the next stop.
It didn't take long for Chen Lu to completely accept reality.
He suddenly gave a bitter smile, slowly lowered his eyes, and said with some guilt, "I just feel really bad for you, you're still so young."
Liang Zhirou blinked in confusion, her right hand still resting on her lower abdomen. "I like it very much."
"But the world is so big. There are deserts that stretch as far as the eye can see, and you can really see a sky full of stars at night in those places. There are also pyramids where the bricks alone are taller than a person, and lakes that are as smooth as mirrors... Don't you like the sea? In some places, the sea even glows."
White clouds drift on the lake, dusk chases dawn—I haven't taken you to see any of that yet.
You'll be staying home to take care of the kids...
Unexpectedly, Liang Zhirou listened in a daze, then suddenly smiled at him.
"But I'm useless."
This time, Chen Lu's gaze was blank.
Liang Zhirou then added, "All I want to do in this life is live a good life with you."
"Chen Lu, think about what kind of life I was living three years ago. Every day I spend with you now feels like a dream."
The girl leaned her forehead against his, their foreheads lightly touching, her voice gentle yet earnest.
"So I don't care about any of what you said, I just want to stay by your side... I just want to stay by your side."
