Love So Sweet

Chapter 610 - 610 It Will be Difficult

610 It Will be Difficult

Before they leave the hospital, Zhang Li Xue and Bai Qi decided to stop by to see their Uncle Qi Zheng. It was Qi Zheng who led them to meet Doctor Lin. Otherwise, they might not guess what really happened.

Of course, Qi Zheng was happy to hear this news.

After reminding both Zhang Li Xue and Bai Qi what they should be careful of, Qi Zheng promised that he would keep this matter a secret from everyone else. This matter was the couple’s private matter. It would be best if they announced this good news themselves.

Just like this, Qi Zheng became the first person who learned about the couple’s relationship as well as Zhang Li Xue’s pregnancy.

Zhang Li Xue and Bai Qi went back to their apartment, with their mind preoccupied with the doctor’s announcement earlier.

As soon as they entered the room, Bai Qi tugged at his wife’s hand and hugged her tightly. He rested his head on her shoulder and inhaled deeply.

Whatever it was, Zhang Li Xue’s scent would always make him relax.

Zhang Li Xue wrapped her arms around Bai Qi’s waist enjoying his warm embrace. The smile on her face was especially bright.

They stayed in each other’s arms for a long time. Then, Bai Qi pulled away and kissed his wife on the forehead. “Are you hungry? It should be around lunchtime. Let me make you something, What do you want to eat?”

.....

Zhang Li Xue laughed upon hearing his questions. “I’m fine with anything.” She rubbed her head on his chest. “Whatever it is you’re making, they would always taste delicious.”

Bai Qi exhaled a deep breath. He leaned over to kiss her face a few more times before pulling away. He stared at his wife for a long time, with a frown on his face.

After a while, Zhang Li Xue stretched her arms and held Bai Qi’s face. Her hand moved to touch the crease between his brow. “Why are you looking at me like that? Bai Qi, are you unhappy?”

“Of course, not.” A helpless sigh escaped him. “You are now carrying a child that belonged to us. How can I be unhappy about this?” He pinched her cheek and kissed the top of her nose. “Don’t think too much.”

Zhang Li Xue continued to study his expression and thought that he was telling her the truth.

However, something in his mind seemed to be bothering him. Instead of asking Bai Qi, Zhang Li Xue decided to stay still and wait for him to talk.

“It’s just that...” Bai Qi pushed a few strands of hair away from her face. “I’m worried about you.”

“Me?”

“Un...” Bai Qi nodded. “Li Xue, it will be difficult for you, to deal with pregnancy. And I won’t be able to be by your side all the time. I won’t be able to be with you when you are experiencing morning sickness just like this morning.”

He could still remember her pale face and how weak she looked after vomiting.

Later, his wife will have to face them almost every day. This morning sickness might get better after a while. But, Bai Qi had also heard how morning sickness could turn worst during the pregnancy. He did not want his wife to suffer.

Zhang Li Xue stared at him with her eyes wide. Knowing that Bai Qi was worried about her the most made her heart warm. She knew just how much this man loved her. And at this moment, Zhang Li Xue felt as if she was the happiest.

After a while, her lips turned up into a smile. “I will be fine. Even if you are not by my side, I will still have my family around. We’ll hire someone to look after my diet and look after me.” Zhang Li Xue held Bai Qi’s hands and gave them a gentle squeeze. “But whenever you are around, I hope that you will stay with me and care for me like you always do.”

From the beginning they were together, Zhang Li Xue had always prepared herself that Bai Qi was not someone who could be by her side all the time.

The corner of his lips turned up. Bai Qi hugged his wife tightly again and spoke, “Of course.”

Bai Qi began to make preparation to cook their lunch. Seeing that there were not many ingredients in the refrigerator, Bai Qi decided to order some fresh ingredients online.

Once the ingredients were sent over, he began to make a few foods that he knew would be good for a pregnant woman. Of course, Zhang Li Xue was not allowed to help him in the kitchen.

Thinking about this, Bai Qi made a mental reminder to buy a book on pregnancy as well as early childhood education. It seemed that there would be a lot of things they have to prepare before the baby come out.

After an hour, Bai Qi managed to prepare a few simple dishes. There is still a pot of simmering chicken soup in the kitchen that his wife could eat later.

Bai Qi went to look for his wife and found her sleeping in the bedroom.

A gentle smile appeared on his face, knowing that Zhang Li Xue was too tired.

Zhang Li Xue’s phone rang just as Bai Qi was about to lean over and kiss his wife. Worried that the noise would disturb her sleep, Bai Qi took her phone and walked out of the room.

He glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was his mother-in-law.

Without a second of hesitation, Bai Qi picked up the phone and pressed it on his ear.

“Li Xue?” Li Qin Yao’s voice was heard on the other line. “Your dad said that you did not come to the office today. Are you not feeling well?”

Bai Qi let out a cough. “Mom, it’s me.”

“Bai Qi?”

“Mmm... Li Xue is asleep.”

“Oh. Is she alright?”

“She’s alright. Just that, her stomach was a little uncomfortable this morning. I asked her to stay home and rest.”

“It’s alright then. As long as she’s alright.”

Li Qin Yao thought that as long as Bai Qi was by Zhang Li Xue’s side, she should be alright. Her son-in-law was a doctor. He should know her condition well.

“Bai Qi, remember to tell me if anything happened,” Li Qin Yao reminded him.

“Mom, I will.”

“Are you not working today?”

“Mmm... I’m not on duty today.” He thought about the news for a while and continued, “Mom, Li Xue and I will come back and have dinner with you and Dad tonight.”
