Married to the Protagonist

Ch.171 Labor (2)

“You have to believe in a woman’s sixth sense.” Her expression was soft and calm, “It won’t even be too late to go a week and a half early.”

“……” Well-behaved my ass.

Yan Cheng gritted his teeth, his brows filled with sorrow.

He wrinkled his nose and pursed his lips, suddenly he felt the urge to just ignore her.

After a long moment of silence, he sighed, “We still have to be fully prepared.”

The expected due date is just the time frame whereby the baby would most likely be born. There are so many pregnant women who go into labour earlier than the expected time frame.

Chen Jinyao opened her eyes quickly and said in surprise: “Hey, this isn’t like you, you sound so mature.”

“I feel as if you’re my son who’s all grown up now” It’s probably because I’m about to be a mother. When Chen Jinyao looked at someone, she would unconsciously give off a sense of motherly love in her gaze. She looked up at him and thought about it before saying, “I’m so relieved.”

Yan Cheng: “……”

The phone in his palm suddenly vibrated.That memory dissipated in an instant, and only then did Yan Cheng come back to his senses. The sky was filled with the evening glow and the entire city was covered red. He slowly retracted his gaze and looked down to check the message.

Chai Yue: [Don’t use it as a second wedding anniversary gift. My sister-in-law doesn’t want to go to the hospital, right? Just tell her, if she goes one or two weeks in advance, you’ll give her a gift, Brother Cheng, believe me, I’ve been there, all women fall for this. 】

The next day.

During dinner.

Yan Cheng seemed slightly absent-minded, as he ate his bowl of rice, half of his handsome face was buried in the rice bowl, he looked up from time to time, and carefully looked in Chen Jinyao’s direction, as if he was thinking about how he should start off the topic in mind.

The small table brought the both of them closer, and the home-cooked dishes made the atmosphere feel homely.

His glances were so obvious that it was hard to just ignore him.

After noticing his hesitant expression, Chen Jinyao put down the bowl and chopsticks in hand, placed her hands on her cheeks, and turned around to stare at him: “Just say whatever that’s on your mind.”

Yan Cheng looked up and stared at her with a serious face.

“Why are you so nervous?” Chen Jinyao also looked directly at him.

Chen Jinyao: “I won’t hurt you.”

Yan Cheng suddenly felt the urge to ignore her: “……”

After being quiet for a moment.

There was a faint clink when his chopsticks accidentally hit the wall of the bowl.

He was still hesitant to speak, and Chen Jinyao was not going to rush him.

As soon as she was about to stand up and get herself a hot bowl of soup, Yan Cheng took over. She just left the chair for a second, and had to sit back down again. She looked up and observed Yan Cheng, his side profile looked even more mature than before and the naturally seductive and alluring aura from his peach blossom eyes also reduced. She admired him for a moment, then looked down as she focused on the subject yet again.Chen Jinyao knew what Yan Cheng wanted to say to her. It was nothing more than the topic that they were constantly on these days, and it was not easy for him to stand strong on his ground for so long.

She smiled with her eyes, “Do you want me to be in the hospital earlier?”

As he placed the bowl in front of her, Yan Cheng touched the back of his neck unnaturally, “Yeah.”

Then, he followed Chai Yue’s suggestion.

Yan Cheng: “If you agree to this, I’ll give you a present.”

“……”

Chen Jinyao couldn’t bear being stared at with such an eager gaze, she looked away.

She didn’t agree, nor did she disagree.

She made Yan Cheng feel anxious again, she seemed to be deep in thought, her gaze with a hint of complaint: “Student Yan Cheng, I thought about it carefully. This seems to be the first time you ever said that you’re going to get me a gift, right? Aren’t you ashamed?”
