Chapter 192 I Won't Let Her Shed a Single Tear
Fang Mei and Fu Shengyang shed tears, their hearts also deeply moved.
Someone as aloof and indifferent as Fu Shengyang must love Xiaoyue very much to cry so much when he saw her getting an injection.
She patted Fu Shengyang's shoulder like a mother, saying, "Although every woman has to have children, and having children is an inevitable path for mothers, the understanding and love of their partners will become their strength."
Fu Shengyang's throat tightened, and he promised in a tearful voice, "I will treat Xiaoyue very, very well. I will do whatever she wants and will never let her shed a single tear."
Fang Mei knew that Fu Shengyang was a sentimental person, and said, "Auntie believes you will do well."
The medicine took effect quickly; An Xiaoyue could still feel it, but it wasn't as painful as before.
Everyone else in the family was sitting in the living room, while Fu Shengyang stayed by her bedside.
"How are you?" Fu Shengyang's eyes were red. "Does it still hurt?"
An Xiaoyue could tell at a glance that he had shed tears. A sweet, dense feeling seeped into her pores. She squeezed his hand tightly. "It doesn't hurt anymore."
Fu Shengyang gripped his hand tightly, knowing how much suffering childbirth would entail, and he no longer had any intention of having a second child.
"I love you, and I love our child. No matter what I'm going through right now, my heart is filled with the joy of meeting my lucky baby soon. I want to sleep on my stomach, drink coffee, and eat all the foods I haven't been able to enjoy during my pregnancy. For these things, I can endure all the pain. Besides, now that I've had an epidural, I really feel much more relaxed."
As An Xiaoyue was talking, Fu Shengyang suddenly laughed.
"Do you want to eat anything now? The doctor said he needs to prepare some food for you to replenish your energy."
Production is a long process; we should eat when we need to.
Before An Xiaoyue could decide what she wanted to eat, Ji Yubai and Zhong Lingxi arrived.
"Sister-in-law, look, I brought you your favorite foods: spicy crayfish, kebabs, and a cake made by my mom."
Zhong Ling frowned in disapproval, but Ji Yubai insisted that this was his way of showing affection for his sister-in-law.
Since it was a gift prepared with care, she didn't say anything more to him and let him bring everything over.
Spicy crayfish, I'm so tempted, I really want to eat it.
Just thinking about the numbing and spicy taste made An Xiaoyue's mouth produce an endless stream of saliva, which she swallowed repeatedly.
When Lucky is born, she will need to be breastfed. We can't let Lucky's first sip of milk taste spicy.
She wanted to eat, but she remained rational.
Fu Shengyang saw her expression and felt sorry for her. "I'll peel two for you to try."
An Xiaoyue was tempted, "Eating two won't hurt, right?"
They look pitiful yet endearing.
Fu Shengyang smiled and chuckled softly, "It's alright."
An Xiaoyue felt reassured and exclaimed happily, "Then I want to eat!"
Ji Yubai immediately boasted to Zhong Lingxi, "Look, my sister-in-law can eat it."
Zhong Lingxi glared at him and pinched his waist.
Unfortunately, Ji Yubai had no excess fat on his body, so she couldn't twist anything.
As if tickled, Ji Yubai twisted his waist and went to the other side.
"Grandpa Fu, I'm here."
Fu Jinyun had seen him long ago and noticed his little interaction with Lingxi. She was happy for the Ji family.
With Ji Yubai's marriage settled, his parents can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
"Let me introduce you. These are your sister-in-law's family members: Grandpa Leng, Aunt, and cousin."
Ji Yubai knew Leng Shide, who was a renowned master of traditional Chinese medicine and a leading figure in the field.
Isn't my sister-in-law's only family her mother? How come there are suddenly so many more people? Is it the Leng family, a family with a long history in medicine?
Ji Yubai had many questions, but he was always a lively person. Even if he didn't know the whole story, he could still laugh and call out to people.
Finally, he took the initiative to introduce himself, "My name is Ji Yubai, and this is my fiancée, Zhong Lingxi."
Seeing the strange expressions on everyone's faces, he turned around and found himself all alone; there was no one around.
"Hehe..." He laughed to defuse the awkwardness, "She and Xiaoyue grew up together, and she's most worried about Xiaoyue. As soon as she arrived, she only cared about Xiaoyue."
This single sentence not only explains the relationship between Zhong Lingxi and Xiaoyue, but also provides a good explanation for Zhong Lingxi's behavior.
The whole family is very perceptive; of course they could tell.
"Yu Bai, come and sit down." Fang Mei made room for him. "We grew up together, so we're practically family. It's understandable that you're worried."
Ji Yubai was an easygoing person and didn't stand on ceremony. He sat down and quickly struck up a conversation with the Leng family.
In the delivery room, Fu Shengyang peeled some crayfish for An Xiaoyue and then left the space to the two sisters who hadn't seen each other for a long time.
With Lingxi keeping her company and talking to her for a while, she was able to distract herself.
"I'm finally going to give birth!" Zhong Ling exclaimed, unable to hide her excitement.
Xiaoyue's hardships during her pregnancy were something no one could bear for her, and she saw it all.
"It should be soon, the dilation is quite fast." An Xiaoyue said, her gaze on the pregnant belly extremely gentle.
Good luck, everyone is looking forward to your arrival, and you will be born safely.
An Xiaoyue thought of Ji Yubai and Lingxi's matter. She wasn't at the hospital at the time and didn't know the specifics. Now that she had the chance, she naturally wanted to ask them clearly.
How are you all doing now?
“He’s quite obedient,” Zhong Lingxi said with a sense of accomplishment.
An Xiaoyue chuckled. She had seen it clearly when Lingxi grabbed Ji Yubai earlier.
Ji Yubai was overjoyed, as if he had received a great reward; one was willing to give, and the other was willing to receive.
The way they laughed and joked made them look just like a young couple deeply in love.
Chung Ling-hsi: "I think it's impossible for me not to get married in this lifetime. Since I'm going to get married anyway, and I don't have anyone I like, and he doesn't care about my past, why shouldn't I choose someone who likes me and always goes along with me to get married?"
"Whether others think I'm materialistic or attracted to his family background, I chose to marry him, so I won't be unfaithful and I'll live a good life with him."
An Xiaoyue knew what kind of person Zhong Lingxi was and wouldn't question any of her decisions.
"Teacher Zhou and Teacher Zhong are coming over during the holidays, right?" The senior year of high school has already finished the college entrance examination. Teacher Zhou's class consists of top-performing students, with a 100% rate of students getting into top universities. Almost all the students have already filled out their college applications and are just waiting for their acceptance letters.
They have nothing to do, so they'll probably come to Beijing to check out the house renovations.
Lingxi's house has finished its hard decoration; now it's time to choose soft decorations.
Zhong Lingxi: "I'll come over after the teacher appreciation banquet in August, but I won't be staying for long."
"What about your wedding?" She heard Ji Yubai mention his fiancée. Perhaps that was one of the reasons Teacher Zhou and the others came over.
"I don't know." Zhong Lingxi's face lost its previous ease, and she said unnaturally, "I want to wait two more years before I start working. After all, I'm in the peak period of my career right now, but his parents want me to get married and have children sooner."
With children, family, and work at her disposal, An Xiaoyue understood Lingxi's difficulties.
Lingxi is a clear-headed, independent person with career aspirations, so Ji Yubai will definitely listen to Lingxi's decisions in everything.
But the two elders of the Ji family are also getting old, and it's only natural that they want to be surrounded by their children and grandchildren and enjoy their grandchildren's company.
It's alright now, but as time goes on and their opinions diverge, it will be Ji Yubai, who's caught in the middle, who will suffer the most.
