Huo Yunting went back to his mansion as fast as he could. The butler was there to greet him when he stepped into the living room.
âSir!â
âWhat happened to her?â
âMadam fainted just now!â
Huo Yunting relaxed slightly at the reply, but he soon felt anxious again. He made his way upstairs as he asked, âWhy? Did you call the doctor?â
âThe doctor is seeing her now!â
Huo Yunting was about to open the door to his bedroom when the doctor opened it from inside. The doctor saw concern in his eyes and said, âDo not worry, Mr Huo. Your wife is fine, she is just...â
Before he could finish, Lu Zhaoyang said from the bed, âHuo Yunting, Iâm pregnant again!â
â...â
Huo Yunting absorbed the news and grinned in joyful surprise.
âReally?â
âYe!â
The doctor nodded and smiled. âMrs Huo is pregnant for about a month, but itâs better to visit the hospital for a checkup soon. She overworked recently and did not rest well, that is why she fainted. As long as she takes better care of herself, everything should be fine.â
âThank you, doctor.â
âYouâre welcome. Iâll be off then, please let me know if you need anything else.â
âAlright.â
Huo Yunting saw the doctor off and then returned to the bedroom. He sat on the edge of the bed and caressed her still-flat belly, trying to feel the life that had begun inside.
His gaze turned soft as he touched Lu Zhaoyangâs forehead with his own and looked into her eyes.
âThis time, Iâll be here with you.â
He would stay by her side throughout the months of her pregnancy.
He would watch her give birth.
He would bring the child up with her.
âAlright.â Lu Zhaoyang caressed his face and looked contented. âHowever, you canât neglect Xuxu. Heâs our child too.â
âOf course.â
He felt guilty against the little boy and would treat him as best as he could.
Speaking of the boy, he just came home from school.
Huo Xu heard the news of his motherâs pregnancy and ran upstairs. He stopped by the side of the bed and stared at his mother with his big, twinkling eyes.
âYangyang, the maid told me that you have a baby in your tummy, is it true?â
âYes.â
Lu Zhaoyang patted him on the head.
âXuxu is going to be a big brother soon, are you happy?â
âYes!â
The boy nodded heavily. He took off his shoe and climbed onto the bed. Then, he put one hand on her belly, the way his father did, and said, âWhen my lilâ sister comes out, I will love her just like you love me. Iâll share my snacks with her and let her have half of my bed!â
Huo Yunting was amused. He pulled the boy closer and asked, âHow do you know itâs going to be a sister?â
âMy sixth sense told me,â Huo Xu tilted his head and answered.
â...â
Huo Yunting suppressed a chuckle and asked, âHow can a boy like you have a sixth sense?â
âWhy canât a boy have sixth sense? Meimei and her friends do.â
âThatâs because...â
The conversation was going off course. Lu Zhaoyang sighed with a smile and interrupted Huo Yuntingâs antics and said, âBoy or girl, Iâm sure Xuxu will be a good big brother.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Huo Xu puffed up his chest and said, âOf course!â
He looked so mightily adorable. Lu Zhaoyang planted a heavy kiss on his cheek.
Huo Xuâs eyes lit up and he kissed his motherâs cheek in return.
Mother and son looked at each other and exchanged a wide grin.
