My Hubby Can’t Stop Pampering Me

Chapter 1316: Chapter 1309: For the Child (3) Chapter 1316: Chapter 1309: For the Child (3) At that moment, Qin Zhiyou saw all men and women as genderless. In his eyes, there were only a few types of people: subordinates, partners, competitors, the idiotic relatives at home, and the particularly noteworthy Zhongtian Steel. He was as busy as a spinning top every day, with absolutely no time to consider his personal issues.

He had just held Lu Weixi in his arms; she was only three months pregnant and wasn’t showing yet. Moreover, due to severe morning sickness early on, she had lost quite a bit of weight. Holding her slender waist, it felt like he could encircle it with his hands. Having lived like a monk for a few months, he initially didn’t feel anything when Lu’s mother hit him, but now, being alone in a room with her, he indeed felt some stirrings.

But he remembered, five years ago when Lu Weixi was pregnant with that child, their relationship had worsened. It started one day when he had too much to drink and wanted to get close to her in his inebriation. Now that Lu Weixi was three months pregnant and still unstable, getting close was out of the question. They hadn’t even reconciled yet, and he was afraid his current reactions might push her even further away, so he chose to avoid her and let his emotions slowly settle.

Lu Weixi had asked him to leave, and he nodded in agreement. Indeed, he also feared staying could lead him to do something irrational that might harm the baby and her.

When Lu Weixi saw him nod, saw him walk to the window, saw him preparing to leave, she should have been pleased. But for some reason, she just felt awful. It was a sense of discomfort she couldn’t quite articulate, as if there was a tightness in her chest making it stuffy.

Qin Zhiyou prepared to climb out the window, then lifted his leg and turned back to ask, “I’ll come to pick you up tomorrow.”

Who cares about you picking me up? Lu Weixi shook her head, “I have my own car; I’ll go by myself.”

“Then, could I come over tonight to see you?”

Yeah, like there’s something to see, as if I’ll lose a piece of flesh or the baby will suddenly grow overnight.

“I have work tomorrow and might be busy till late. You know, my mom doesn’t want to see you. If you come over rashly and my mom finds out, it would be a whole chaotic episode again. Why bother? Next time I need a certificate or go to the hospital for a check-up, I’ll notify you. You can come if you like.”

Naturally, Qin Zhiyou also picked up a hint of discontent in her tone and thought it was her mother’s attitude affecting her. Without explaining much, he could only nod, “Then have a good night, rest early. You are carrying two now, don’t overexert yourself.”

Here we go again, not a single sentence without mentioning the child, which annoyed Lu Weixi even more, “Are you done talking? Can you leave now?”

Qin Zhiyou nodded and turned to climb the wall. Then, he suddenly remembered something, turned back, and said, “Can I stay here tonight?”

Lu Weixi furrowed her brow, and he quickly reassured, “Don’t worry, I’ll just accompany you to rest, I won’t touch you or do anything excessive. I’ll leave early tomorrow before your mom wakes up. She won’t find out I’m here, okay?”

Just as Lu Weixi was about to object, he had already closed the window and drawn the curtains, resolutely set on staying. Lu Weixi frowned in displeasure, “How can you stay? The house is only so big, how will you rest at night? Aren’t you going to wash your face, brush your teeth, or use the restroom? You might not mind, but I do.”

Seeing she didn’t strongly object, Qin Zhiyou grinned and said, “No worries, I have my ways.”
