“Is this where we are going to live?”
Ning Shu silently looked at the new house in front of him. It was called a new residence, but it was more like a small villa complex. He took a deep breath and said to Xie Wenqiu: “How much is the rent for this house?”
Xie Wenqiu said calmly, “The house is under Wei Chao Dong’s name anyway. It’s empty either way, so he agreed to rent it to us. The environment here is quiet and the air is good, it’s convenient for you to rest and take care of the baby.”
Ning Shu pursed her lips.
He said, “Since it’s a villa, the rent must be expensive.”
Xie Wenqiu glanced at his wife and said with a slight smile, “We grew up together since childhood. I don’t want more from others, just five thousand yuan as friendship rent every month.”
He was afraid that if he spoke too lowly, his wife wouldn’t believe him at all.
As expected, Ning Shu fell silent after hearing this. He knew the reason for such a low price was because of Xie Wenqiu’s face; he had inspected the house.
The house turned out to be quite spacious.
The space is spacious, so even if we have a baby in the future, it won’t feel cramped. There will still be room to spare.
Ning Shu thought this house was too good, and too new.
He found that the floor was still covered with a soft wool carpet.
The villa district isn’t far from the city center, this area was specifically developed for that purpose. As long as Ning Shu wants to, he can go out at any time.
After he was discharged from the hospital, the company called him and sincerely apologized. They then asked him when he would be able to return to work.
Ning Shu fell silent for a moment before replying, “I’m sorry, I can’t go back to work.”
Zhaojie still thought he was upset about that company thing and called to say, “I understand your decision, Xiaoning. It’s just that you’ve been doing it for so long, and this time they were going to give you a raise and promotion…”
Ning Shu shook her head and said, “Zhao Jie, it’s not entirely because of that.”
He hesitated for a moment, then told Zhao Jie the truth: “I’m pregnant.”
Ning Shu’s ears were crimson.
Although he had been in this world for a year or two, he still couldn’t understand how men could get pregnant. But when he felt the baby in his belly, sometimes besides being at a loss, there was more joy that the other brought him.
His eyes softened slightly as he said, “Well, it’s been three months now.”
Ning Shu moved her lips and said: “Because the pregnancy state is too obvious, so work-wise, it’s not a good choice for me.”
Zhao Jie said she understood because she had seen men pregnant online. Because of their bodies and gender, the reaction would indeed be stronger: “So… are you planning to raise a child on your own?”
She said in a slightly serious tone, “Having a child is not a one-person job, Xiaoning. You mustn’t be foolish.”
Ning Shu quickly said no, he hesitated and said, ” … and also my… ex-husband. We’re living together now, he went to work, before the child is born, he will live with me.”
Zhao Jie seemed to want to say something, but stopped herself: “Xiao Ning, are you planning to forgive him…?”
Ning Shu was dazed. He lowered his head towards the phone and softly said, “I don’t know either, Zhao Jie. Let things take their course.”
….
Xie Wenqiu initially wanted to hire someone to cook, but he really didn’t want to waste this opportunity to perform. So, he privately spent time every day cooking.
Coming back to show my wife what I’ve learned.
Fortunately, Xie D Shao still has a lot of talent. In a short time, he became engrossed in his work. The taste of the food was surprisingly good, even better than Ning Shu’s cooking.
Even the dishes that Young Master Xie liked, were learned by him from Auntie Sun.
Maybe because her nutrition has improved, Ning Shu’s face was full of collagen after a week.
Xie Dashao was very satisfied. He saw that his wife finally had some vitality after he raised her.
He would look at Ning Shu’s stomach every evening now, wanting to touch it but hesitant to.
Xie Wenqiu kept a straight face, first glancing at his wife in restraint before noticing the baby in her belly.
Ning Shu lay in bed, seeing the man looking like he wanted to touch her.
He pursed his lips.
To say I wasn’t feeling awkward would be a lie, even though Xie Wenqiu had touched me before. But that was without his knowledge. This time, he knows.
Ning Shu couldn’t help but wonder what kind of feelings Xie Wenqiu had as he touched his own belly.
He had a feeling of palpitation.
“Wife…”
Xie Dashao’s throat moved slightly, then he lowered his head. Thinking the young man had already fallen asleep, he kissed the other’s forehead with restraint.
Ning Shu actually hadn’t fallen asleep, he had just closed his eyes.
Her eyelashes trembled slightly.
Xie Wenqiu noticed that his wife was actually pretending to be asleep, and he couldn’t help but feel a surge of joy in his heart. His eyes darkened slightly; his wife knew what he was doing. But she didn’t get angry or expose him.
Is it the default?
Xie Wenqiu rolled his eyes and then kissed her for a while.
Ning Shu’s eyelashes trembled continuously, he couldn’t help but open his eyes, his cheeks flushed slightly as he said: “…get out.”
Xie pretended not to hear.
He knew his wife actually needed him, so he reached out and took the young man’s hand, saying deeply: “Wife…”
Ning Shu’s cheeks flushed.
“Xie Wenqiu, we are already divorced. Please don’t shout.”
Xie Wenqiu stared at the young man’s slightly flushed face.
Of course, if his wife was truly angry, he’d have been kicked out by now.
The man’s eyes were dark as he stared at the youth’s stomach.
Thinking nonchalantly, it was fortunate that he had been watering it every night during that period. Otherwise, the young man’s belly wouldn’t have grown so big any later.
After all, although men can get pregnant, the pregnancy rate is not higher than that of women.
Ning Shu didn’t know what the other party was thinking. He only saw Xie Wenqiu staring at him quietly, then said: “May I touch your belly?”
He said nothing.
Actually, my stomach is still a little uncomfortable, even though I’ve had Xie Wenqiu’s company for the past week. To be honest, Ning Shu’s reaction isn’t as intense anymore, but sometimes, he still craves to have his stomach touched by a man.
But how could Ning Shu possibly take the initiative to speak?
Upon hearing Xie Wenqiu’s words, his eyelashes quivered slightly.
Xie Wenqiu glanced at the young man’s expression and knew he hadn’t refused. So he raised his hand, then tentatively reached out.
Then he casually placed it on the young man’s stomach.
Ning Shu’s cheeks were flushed, he found that there was still a bit of strangeness. Especially when that big hand with high temperature just rested on his stomach.
Even through a layer of fabric.
He could also feel it clearly.
Xie Wenqiu touched it, and he vaguely sensed a feeling as if something was calling to him. He lowered his head, looking at the youth’s belly with a touch of curiosity.
Ning Shu felt a little strange being touched by him, and Xie Da’s hands were also a bit restless.
He couldn’t help but purse his lips and say, “Enough.”
Xie Wenqiu’s heart skipped a beat, and he couldn’t help but swallow nervously. “Can I reach in and touch it?”
Ning Shu turned her face away a little awkwardly, then pretended to be calm and said, “No.”
… even through their clothes.
If it went in, Ning Shu couldn’t guarantee you wouldn’t get goosebumps all over.
He was terrified and just wanted Xie Wenqiu to take his hand away quickly.
Although Xie Dashao was a little disappointed after hearing this, he still retracted his hand. He stared at the young man’s face, feeling a flutter in his heart at the beauty of his complexion.
Xie Wenqiu wanted to kiss someone’s face again.
。。。
After losing his job, Ning Shu wasn’t idle. He would spend time at home reading design books, and when inspiration struck, he would jot down some ideas.
He also intends to take on design drawing work online as much as he is able.
Ning Shu’s belly was three months pregnant, but in normal circumstances, it wasn’t noticeable. Her figure was already good, and there wasn’t any other change in her body shape.
But the moment he took off his clothes.
Then one would notice that the belly had become slightly rounded.
slightly rounded.
He looked for a while, then washed up, put on his house clothes, and went out.
Ning Shu first took a look at the design drawings that she hadn’t finished reading.
Xie Wenqiu found that he, a living person, had no sense of presence at all. He couldn’t help but raise his head from the computer. He had already reduced the time he spent going to the company, and if it wasn’t necessary, he would discuss work matters with shareholders online.
The faint fragrance on the youth’s body made Xie D Shao’s whole body a little agitated.
But he knew his wife was pregnant now, with a baby in her belly.
So he suppressed his emotions and embraced her from behind.
Ning Shu was startled.
Xie Wenqiu reached out to grab the young man’s hand, his voice humble as he said, “Give me a hug.”
The young man hesitated for a moment, but still did not push the man away.
Xie Dajiao, however, noticed that his wife’s ears were slightly red.
He really wanted to go over and lick it.
But Xie D Shao eventually held back. He lowered his head and happened to see the young man wrapped in clothes, with a slightly rounded belly.
….
Ning Shu received a phone call from Dr. Li.
Mr. Ning, are you settled in now?
Dr. Li said that over there.
Ning Shu chatted with him for a while. Doctor Li had called him when the incident happened. However, his phone was off at that time. Later, Ning Shu sent a text message to thank him for his concern.
Doctor Li didn’t pry into his personal life too much: “By the way, Mr. Ning, your belly is already three months along. Your prenatal check-up is tomorrow, would that be convenient for you?”
Ning Shu said: “Convenient, thank you, I will be there on time.”
He hung up the phone.
Xie Wenqiu appeared at some point, his face tense, his eyes fixed on him with a haunting gaze: “Was the man you spoke to on the phone?”
