Chapter 866: 866: You're Actually Considering It?!
After My Rebirth, I Escaped My Marriage
Lin Gantang casually placed the list on Wen Yanqingâs usual work-from-home desk, touched her belly, and didnât feel anything.
So she went about her business as usual. If she didnât feel like cooking at noon, she would ask Aunt Zhong to come over, then she would water the houseplants and sit in her recliner to enjoy the distant view.
Remembering the doctorâs advice to eat more fruits and vegetables, she went back to the living room to grab an apple to munch on, the epitome of relaxation.
She stretched comfortably, thinking how a tiny life was growing inside her without her noticing, the continuation of her and her loverâs bloodline. It felt truly miraculous.
After a while, Lin Gantang heard the door open and thought Aunt Zhong had arrived.
She wondered why Aunt Zhong was so quick today but saw when she looked up that it was Wen Yanqing who had come in.
âArenât you at work?â Lin Gantang asked as she approached with a puzzled look.
âIâve finished.â Wen Yanqing said.
If Yi Qian heard this, he would probably faint on the mountain of paperwork piling up.
Wen Yanqing reached out to take her hand, âAre you hungry? Iâll cook for you.â
âIâve already called Aunt Zhong over.â Lin Gantang grabbed him as he was about to head to the kitchen, âDonât busy yourself, sit with me for a bit, letâs eat something together when Aunt Zhong is done.â
âIâll make you a fresh juice.â
âBut I just had an apple.â
âThen Iâllâ¦â
Lin Gantang saw he wouldnât be at ease unless he did something, so she cradled his face, saw the barely perceptible tension in his dark eyes and couldnât help but laugh, âWhat are you nervous about? The baby is doing fine in my stomach. Or are you too happy?â
Wen Yanqing looked at her stomach, pulled her into his arms, and asked softly, âDo you feel uncomfortable?â
âNo, itâs no different than usual.â
When Aunt Zhong arrived, Lin Gantang simply told her she was pregnant and asked her to pay a little more attention to the diet. Aunt Zhong was so delighted that she went to overturn the food and removed what shouldnât be eaten.
Aunt Zhong was experienced and knew the dietary taboos for pregnant women.
After cooking the meal and wiping her hands, Aunt Zhong prepared to leave. She said cheerfully, âIâll get you some ingredients suitable for the pregnancy. Itâs important for an adult to watch their diet for the baby to develop well.â
âThank you for the trouble, Aunt Zhong.â Wen Yanqing said.
After lunch and a short rest, Lin Gantang checked the time and felt it was about time to go back to the office, but the person beside her showed no sign of leaving.
Lin Gantang nudged him, âLunch break is over, time to work.â
âI donât want to go.â Wen Yanqing looked down at the prenatal examination form, âI want to be with you.â
Lin Gantang chuckled, âBe with what? Weâre together all day long. Do you also plan to take ten months off to be with me until I give birth?â
Wen Yanqing frowned, deep in thought.
â!â Youâre actually considering it? Lin Gantang pulled him up, âHurry up to work to earn money for baby formula.â
Wen Yanqing reluctantly got up, âThen Iâll come back early.â
After finally persuading him to go to the office, Lin Gantang stayed home to edit videos of the plushie brothers and the Munchkin cats, introducing them to her fans.
But by three oâclock in the afternoon, Wen Yanqing was back again.
Lin Gantangâs eyes widened as she rechecked the time, thinking she had seen it wrong.
Wen Yanqing, seeing her astonished look, explained, âI said Iâd come back early.â
Lin Gantang: ââ¦Youâre early to an extreme.â
How long has he been gone?
Apart from wanting to be with her all the time, Wen Yanqingâs other reactions upon learning of her pregnancy were very normal. Lin Gantang thought this was more like it â the dignified CEO of Shengfang, such a composed person, overwrought because of a child?
That was just right.
Lin Gantang watched Wen Yanqing calmly select prenatal milk formula for her and was very pleased with his composure.
