Two people sat at the dinner table.
The topic of heart attack recurrence had pa*sed, but Shang Xin wasn’t really relieved.
Thinking of Nian Xiaomu’s reminder, she bit her lip and suddenly opened her mouth to ask.
“When are we getting married?”
“……”
“I’m not forcing you to marry me, but if we don’t get married, I’ll have the baby first, the baby will become illegitimate, and if my father finds out, I’m afraid he’ll come over and beat you to death ……,” Shang Xin bit down on her chopsticks and spoke more and more in a whisper.
She really didn’t care about the name.
When she returned to China, all she thought about was not wanting the child to be born without a father.
So she mustered up enough courage to come to Tang Yuansi.
But Nian Xiaomu was right, if Tang Yuansi had no intention of getting married, then did he really want this child?
If Tang Yuansi’s heart condition had really recurred but he was hiding it from her, then the situation must not be good, and it might even be at its worst for him to keep pushing her away.
There was no way he would have promised her to keep the baby in such a situation.
Shang Xin’s whole heart lifted at the thought.
The gaze that he looked at Tang Yuan Si was probing.
“Heart, this kind of question can’t be asked by a girl.” Tang Yuan Si was stunned, then, putting down his chopsticks, he rubbed his brow.
Chagrined, he looked like what he wanted to say had been said in advance by someone else.
Shang Xin reacted to what he meant and was confused for a moment.
So it wasn’t that he hadn’t considered getting married, he just hadn’t had time to tell her yet?
“I, actually I really don’t hate marriage, I just, I ……”
Tang Yuan Si kindly changed the subject for her, “Let’s eat first, don’t you like to look at the stars, the observatory said there will be shooting stars today, I’ll accompany you to the roof later.”
“……”
Shang Xin was teased by him, and forgot what she wanted to ask.
Silently, he bowed his head and ate, then followed him upstairs to look at the stars.
As he watched, he fell asleep in his arms.
In a trance, I felt as if I heard someone talking in my ear.
When she listened carefully, it seemed that she was not talking to her, but to the baby in her belly.
It was Don Juanes’ voice.
He kept talking about how much Daddy loved you and how much he loved Mommy.
What else, she was too dazed from sleep to hear it clearly.
Just hearing him say that he loved her, and their baby, she couldn’t help but raise the corners of her mouth happily and go to sleep contentedly.
In her dream, she also dreamed of the baby.
It was very small and soft, a boy.
It looked exactly like Don Juanes.
Sleeping in swaddling clothes, biting hard on his little fist, sucking his saliva boop ……
Newly born, he would be cute at everyone.
She was just about to reach out and hug him when the little toddler in front of her suddenly moved farther and farther away from her ……
“Baby!”
Shang Xin awoke from her dream and sat up in a panicked attempt to find that she had been carried back to her room.
Tang Yuan Si was holding her tightly.
Meeting her frightened gaze, he gently patted her back, “Bad dream?”
“……”
“Don’t be afraid, it’s just a dream.” Tang Yuan Si’s voice was soft with a doting tone that calmed her panicked heart.
Her eyes fell on the bowl of medicine on the bed, the rich, pungent scent of medicine.
She frowned slightly, “What is this?”
Tang Yuan Si’s eyes flickered slightly as he picked up the bowl of medicine and handed it to her, “You’ve said you don’t sleep well, the doctor has prescribed herbs for you, it’s good for the baby.”
She reached out to take the bowl of medicine, but Tang Yuan Si hesitated and let go of her hand when he met her blank look.
Watching her, she drank all the medicine down one bite at a time ……
