"Sweetheart, are the babies still being good?"
Xie Jingchen held a wet wipe, first helping his wife, whose head was beaded with sweat, to wipe off, looking at her fair little face flushed with warmth, yet her entire being appeared spirited and full—a deep relief filled his heart, and his profound tiger eyes became gentle.
As for how the wet wipe came about, he no longer wished to inquire in detail.
"No biggie~ So hot!" Zhang Shanni wanted to struggle out of the quilt wrapping her body, having just sweated, she felt like she needed some air.
"Sweetheart, be good, be careful not to catch a cold." But Xie Jingchen hugged his little wife even tighter into his arms, wrapping up everything outside of the quilt, including her fair and flushed face, even her neck was enveloped by him.
No helping it, his little wife’s skin was like Bai Yu, lying on the deep red quilt, the stark visual contrast was just too tempting.
"Ugh, but, I’m so hot! I’m all sweaty~~"
Oh my, a pregnant woman naturally fears heat, and the room temperature has been around 18 degrees; it’s certainly not cold enough to bother her. Besides, her health has always been excellent, strong as an ox, except for the inconvenience caused by pregnancy!
And then, he himself is so warm he doesn’t even cover himself with a quilt, stark naked and cooling off outside, yet he wraps her up like a cocoon, is this fair treatment!
"Let’s see—" speaking, his large hand slipped under the quilt, reaching for her back.
Wet and sticky.
If Xie Jingchen wasn’t wiping his wife’s sweat, seeing her sweat even more, he really wanted to keep her covered.
Now, Xie Jingchen truly realized he was being overly anxious.
Once they tidied up, Xie Jingchen was ready to cuddle his delicate wife to sleep.
However, Zhang Shanni couldn’t sleep, she had so much to say!!
"Brother Chen, Brother Chen, do you have to go to work tomorrow?"
"No need, I’m taking three days off. Shall I accompany you for the prenatal check-up tomorrow?"
Xie Jingchen has always been concerned about the little woman at home. Now that he had released his pent-up stress, his body relaxed, holding his wife – who was like a little warm furnace – he started to feel quite sleepy.
"If you want to go, then go. I just had a check-up yesterday, and the doctor said the babies are developing very well. I’d really like you to accompany me to look at our yard~~"
"The weather outside is still chilly, too exhausting. I’ll talk with my comrades tomorrow, and then we’ll go and have a look once there is a result—"
"No, Brother Chen, I haven’t left the military housing for so many days now, I’m about to grow mold." Zhang Shanni simply turned around, facing him with her pregnant belly, her jade arms reached around his neck, pulling herself up to meet his gaze and act coquettish.
Since her father-in-law and mother-in-law arrived, Zhang Shanni had been behaving very well. For one thing, the old lady was not in good health, and she didn’t want to worry her too much; secondly, with elders in the house, one has to consider the elders’ capacity to accept things before doing anything.
Like her belly, although it was only five months, it was sizeable, how could the elders feel at ease letting her go out on the streets alone?
