Chapter 18

Trust

Liang Wen still brought Qu Zhi for a checkup.

Her condition was good, and there were no major problems. However, the doctor told Liang Wen that Qu Zhi might suffer from low blood sugar and that she should work less.

Qu Zhi wanted to rest for a while after she was done with the renovation. There didn’t seem to be any places she needed to go to for the time being.

“Where are you going?” Qu Zhi watched as Liang Wen drove towards another road and thought that he had forgotten where their new home was. “We’re living in the north now, remember?”

Liang Wen nodded. “Let’s go buy some food. You need to nourish your body.”

Nourish.

He had never mentioned this word until she gave birth to their youngest son, Liang ke.

At that time, her pregnancy was even more serious than it was now. Coupled with the fact that she had been working day and night, her condition was much worse than it was now.

At that time, the doctor said that she was malnourished and would affect the baby, so she was willing to buy some milk powder for herself.

Who knew that Liang Wen would point at her nose and scold her after he found out, saying that she only knew how to be carefree and left all the mess for him to clean up?

The car stopped at a large shopping mall near the city center.

Qu Zhi remembered that a new shopping center was built here, but the business was not as good as the old shopping center.

The shopping mall had everything and was bustling with activity. Liang Wen thought for a moment before helping Qu Zhi in.

“Is there anything you want to eat? You can choose.” Qu Zhi found Liang Wen’s politeness a little funny.

“Oh, why are you so polite, Mr. Liang?” Qu Zhi blinked at him. “Aren’t you in a hurry to go to the office?”

“Hurry up and choose, I’ll help you carry it back.”

Qu Zhi knew when to stop, but she was still very touched.

She took a fancy to the Arctic Ocean sold by an old man.

It was in a glass bottle, and it was frozen. It was emitting a trace of cool air, and it was extremely attractive in the high temperature of midsummer.

“I want this.” This was something she had never said to Liang Wen before. Even she herself doubted how she could say it.

Liang Wen took a box, paid the bill, and walked forward.

That’s enough.

Qu Zhi wanted to say.

However, Liang Wen stopped in front of a Milk Shop. “Bring me two boxes of pure milk.”

He was also influential. He directly carried the three boxes of drinks to the exit.

Qu Zhi followed him slowly, watching the sun shining on the tiles at the mall’s exit. She was dazed and happy.

School would start in a few days.

Qu Zhi was still a little worried that Chuchu would be shy, but in the end, Chuchu was very straightforward.

“Mom, you’re so pretty. I won’t be embarrassed.” She hugged Qu Zhi’s stomach and looked up at her. “You’ll go to school with me, right?”

Qu Zhi smacked her head.

That’s right, in the past, she had never gone to school with Chuchu because of her low self-esteem. It was always Liang Wen who accompanied her.

Chuchu also felt that she was different from before, so she asked if she was willing to go with her.

In the past, she wouldn’t have been willing to ask Qu Zhi about it because Qu Zhi only knew how to do her never-ending housework.

Qu Zhi cupped Chuchu’s tiny face and promised her, “Mom will go.”

“Yay!” Chuchu was extremely happy.

Liang Wen snorted coldly at the side. “No way.”

“Ah?” The mother and daughter looked at him and said in unison.

“Mommy is still pregnant. Everyone will think that I’m not good to Mommy.” Liang Wen explained to them.

He didn’t expect Qu Zhi to agree. Wasn’t he always the one who attended the parent-teacher meetings in the past?

Qu Zhi used to be so lazy and only knew how to enjoy life at home, so he had long since silently agreed that he was the only candidate for the parent-teacher conference.

“I’m fine. You’re so busy. Didn’t you say I’m in charge of the household affairs while you’re in charge of the rest?” Qu Zhi replied with a smile.

“Mom, you’re so pretty. I want to make my new classmates jealous of me.” Chuchu buried her head in Qu Zhi’s chest and said coquettishly.

Liang Wen couldn’t change her mind and agreed.

He didn’t want to be stubborn. This was how it was, and he could relax a lot.

At this moment, he suddenly felt that he shouldn’t have been so careful with Qu Zhi.

She was so capable and intelligent, so she was worthy of his trust.

Qu Zhi looked at Chuchu, who was jumping around like a little rabbit, and her eyes were filled with love and care.

He knew that she would handle the opening ceremony well.
