Chapter 536 I can't bear to let my tears stain your face.
Chapter 536 I can't bear to let my tears stain your face.
Seeing Yu Qingcheng's hardworking and selfless demeanor, Xiao Lili's arrogance gradually subsided. She buried her face in his chest, choking back tears as she pounded on his chest.
"Why are you acting like a doormat?! Retort to me! Say you don't want to serve me like a servant."
Yu Qingcheng smiled, hugged Xiao Lili back, and pulled her into her arms. She stroked Xiao Lili's head and said softly, "Because I love you. You left your comfortable life for me, didn't you? How could I blame you? I only feel that I haven't given you enough love."
"But... I was the one who pursued you, so I should be the one making the effort."
"My wife has already sacrificed so much. Okay, stop crying. I can't bear to see your face dirty with tears, and I don't want you to cry because of me."
Yu Qingcheng took out a tissue, cupped Xiao Lili's face, and wiped away her tears, her deep, pool-like eyes conveying her heartache.
Xiao Lili sobbed, stubbornly insisting, "I'm not crying! I'm just upset. Whose husband is like yours, only seeing you once every few months?"
"My situation is special, you know. Once I've finished my business here, I'll take you on our honeymoon."
"Alright, how's your progress?"
"The list is almost ready, and it will take at most another six months."
[What's the matter? What's the progress? What's the list?]
Luo Shiyu was completely confused by what they were saying, so in order to understand what happened back then, she listened more carefully to their conversation.
Xiao Lili angrily punched Yu Qingcheng hard in the chest: "Six months?! Did Fu Hua ever save your life? Why are you working so hard for him?"
"Xiao Hua doesn't know what I'm doing. To avoid being found out, I've broken off all contact with him. I'll apologize and beg for his forgiveness after this is all done."
"You even went so far as to carry thorns on your back to apologize, but what if he doesn't forgive you?"
"Probably not, after all, we're brothers who've been through thick and thin together."
"Pah! If I hadn't shown up halfway, you would probably have been killed by that beast. Can't you see at all what he's thinking about you?"
"Don't say that about Xiaohua, there must be some misunderstanding."
"You're defending him again! Then let me ask you, if we both fell into the water at the same time, who would you save!"
"Save my wife, Xiaohua can swim."
"I've dragged you down again, haven't I!" Xiao Lili said, pushing Yu Qingcheng aside to rummage through the cabinet.
"I...I didn't say that! Honey, I was wrong, please don't be angry."
Yu Qingcheng thought Xiao Lili was going to stage another scene of getting angry and running away from home, so she quickly went over to stop her.
Xiao Lili turned around and pressed the pregnancy test stick in her hand against Yu Qingcheng's face.
"Open your eyes wide and look carefully!"
Yu Qingcheng took the pregnancy test from Xiao Lili's hand, smiled helplessly, and asked knowingly, "Wife, what did you use to find out?"
"Pee! What? You're disgusted with me!"
"No, I'm just curious if it's accurate."
"I've tried several. If you still don't believe me, I'll go get an ultrasound."
Looking at the two lines on the pregnancy test, Yu Qingcheng felt that happiness was almost unreal.
"mine?"
"Nonsense! Do you suspect me of having an affair with someone else..."
"No! I swear I didn't! I'm just a little dazed."
Yu Qingcheng belatedly smiled, picked up Xiao Lili and gently placed her on the bed, then put her ear close to her lower abdomen to listen to the fetal movements.
"Oh dear, you're getting a little too excited. The child is still young and can't tell anything from what you're saying."
"How many months?"
"Less than two months."
"If I think about it this way, after I finish things here, I can also witness the birth of my child. That's great, really great."
"Look how beautiful you are! Do you want a boy or a girl?"
Without hesitation, Yu Qingcheng replied, "A girl."
What if it's a boy?
"Destroy."
"Yu! Qing! Cheng!"
"Just kidding, don't be angry."
"You really want a daughter that badly?"
"Your daughter is beautiful."
Why can't my son be good-looking?
“My son doesn’t need to be good-looking! If he inherits my looks, it will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.”
"What's the problem? Are you worried that he'll be targeted by other men? Or are you worried that someone will see you coming out of the men's restroom like I did, beat you up because they think you're a pervert, and then chase after you for five years after realizing they mistook you for the wrong gender?"
Goodness, to be honest, Feiyu really did mistake Jiajia for a girl the first time he saw him.
Yu Qingcheng just smiled and didn't respond to Xiao Lili's words.
"Could it be that I was right?"
"No."
"Alright, it's really embarrassing to mistake the child's gender on the first meeting. Have you thought of a name for the child yet?"
“If it’s a girl, we’ll name her Yu Jiajia, Jia as in beautiful woman.” When Yu Qingcheng said “beautiful woman,” she looked at Xiao Lili, clearly referring to her.
"Why would I name my child?"
Xiao Lili's cheeks flushed slightly as she used her hand to cover Yu Qingcheng's eyes, which were so captivating that a few more glances would leave one mesmerized.
"My wife is beautiful."
"Stop with the jokes. What's a boy's name?"
"Yu Tiedan, Yu Ergou, Yu..."
"Yu! Qing! Cheng!"
"How can he share the same name as his father!"
Xiao Lili grabbed Yu Qingcheng by the ear and pulled her closer, saying rudely, "Yu Qingcheng, are you really stupid or just pretending? Who names their child like that these days! If you don't want a son, just say so!"
"I'll be frank."
"Say it again!"
"Honey, don't be angry. It's not good for the baby if you upset it."
"You know something else? Think of a name quickly."
“It’s not easy to choose a boy’s name. If he looks like me, a slightly androgynous name might make people mistake his gender. A name that’s too strong doesn’t suit his face.”
Xiao Lili released her grip on Yu Qingcheng's ear and agreed, "That's right."
"So, let's talk about it when I come back next time."
"Alright, it's getting late, let's wash up and go to bed."
"Wash up and go to sleep~"
Xiao Lili stopped him in time: "No, not within three months."
Yu Qingcheng let out a disappointed "Ah~".
"I finally managed to sneak back home once, and I can't even be affectionate with my wife."
"That's not enough? How did you manage to stay away from home for months on end? Don't tell me you're keeping someone else on the side."
"How could that be! I've only ever had sex with my wife."
"Really?" Xiao Lili playfully lifted Yu Qingcheng's chin, examined her for a moment, and then teased, "That drug lord didn't say he was interested in you, did he?"
“He’s a drug lord, not a brothel owner. He needs capable subordinates more than bed partners, and he doesn’t lack playthings.”
"Yes, that's right, you've convinced me."
Feeling uneasy, Yu Qingcheng added, "Wife, if you hear any bad rumors, just don't believe them."
"I understand. I still trust you to some extent."
"Mmm~ Thank you, honey."
