Jiang Yao had always had a pleasant temper. Even if she had a bad temper from time to time, it would pass fast. She would argue with him during the day and then was back to being his gentle wife in the evening.
âIn the future, if you are unhappy, you can hit or criticize me,â Lu Xingzhi replied abruptly. âJust get it out of your heart.â
âDo not ignore me either,â he said again.
Jiang Yao was instantly amused. She shook the cotton swab in her hand and sprayed water all over Lu Xingzhiâs face. âWhy do you talk so much? Go to sleep. It is past midnight.â
Lu Xingzhi had no desire to sleep. He shook his head. âIf you are tired, go to bed. I am going to touch the baby.â
Jiang Yao put down the thing in her hand and lay down beside him. She took the initiative to take his hand and put it on her stomach.
The infant in her stomach seemed to sense something and suddenly kicked Lu Xingzhiâs palm the minute his hand touched her belly.
Lu Xingzhiâs expression, which had been rather natural at first, abruptly transformed.
âAm I dreaming?â
Lu Xingzhiâs surprised face was trembling as he spoke, trying to control his feelings. 1â1is hand, though, remained firmly on Jiang Yaoâs tummy. He would have prompted his ear closer if Jiang Yao had not stared at him.
âItâs not a dream; itâs a prenatal movement. â Jiang Yaoâs voice had a slight smirk when she reported fetal movement. âOur son is animated. He would occasionally flex his limbs and legs.
When Jiang Yao mentioned the baby, her smile grew. âDo you know when the baby first moved?â
âWhen?â Lu Xingzhi could not take his gaze away from Jiang Yaoâs tummy, and his interest was genuine.
âWhen I was nagging and lecturing the baby about you.â Jiang Yao laughed heartily. â1 was an asshole when I spoke about the babyâs father. Look, the baby is moving again!â
Inquisitively, Jiang Yao placed her hand on the back of Lu Xingzhiâs hand and muttered, âLu Xingzhi is a b*stard.â
A certain b*stard cast a longing glance at his wife, who was relishing her reprimand. His eyes were deep, with a tinge of disappointment and resentment.
So the wife was conversing with the infant while he was away?
âDo not speak of those things again.â Lu Xingzhi kissed Jiang Yaoâs hand. âOtherwise, what if the childâs first words in the future are that Lu Xingzhi is a b*stard?â
Jiang Yaoâs lips widened with delight. âIf that is the case, I will adore him even more.â
Lu Xingzhi wanted to bite her. He let out his frustration by gently biting Jiang
Yaoâs fingertip. âWeâll attend a prenatal education when we get back.â
âDidnât you mention you wanted the child to study medicine in the future? I can teach him. We should start while heâs young,â Jiang Yao said.
Jiang Yao withdrew her hand from Lu Xingzhiâs. Looking at the bite mark on her fingertip and his saliva on it, Jiang Yao pretended to be disgusted and wiped her saliva on his clothes.
Lu Xingzhi regarded Jiang Yaoâs childlike actions with adoration. He gave her a suggestive look, satisfied with himself.
âDo you like the name Lu Chenyang, Yaoyao?â Lu Xingzhi inquired abruptly.
Jiang Yaoâs breathing stopped. After a few seconds, she nodded gently. âI do..â
