Chapter 11: Chapter 11 This is the Rhythm of a House-Husband
Just in a little while, Lin Yi came out carrying a plate full of dumplings and said with a smile, “Vivi, eat up, but be careful, it’s hot!”
“We’re still missing a few things in the kitchen, I’ll need to run to the supermarket tomorrow to stock up on the necessary daily items, and then we can live happily.”
“Ding!”
“Congratulations to the host for completing the task of making a midnight snack for your wife and child, and for acquiring the system reward of a set of High-Level Cooking Skills, plus 2 million in cash.”
What?
A herd of grass-mud horses galloped through Lin Yi’s heart in an instant.
Following the system’s beat, could it be that it wanted him to become a house-husband?
A man should prioritize his career; isn’t it disgraceful to spin around the kitchen all day long?
He glanced down slightly and saw Han Xuewei’s pregnant belly, sighed in his heart, and let it go. With a pregnant woman at home, this High-Level Cooking Skill would really come in handy.
Entering the kitchen for his wife and child wasn’t something to be ashamed of.
Han Xuewei, looking at the dumplings in the plate, felt her appetite surge and said with a sweet smile, “Thank you, it’s so good to have you!”
“Silly woman, thanking your own husband over and over, it’s really improper.”
Lin Yi stretched out his index finger, gently flicked her cute nose, and said very affectionately.
After speaking, he looked around and felt infinitely sentimental. Then, seeing Han Xuewei’s happy expression, he was pleased and said, “Vivi, this will be the home for our family of five from now on.”
“After we get the certificate tomorrow, we’ll be legally husband and wife, so we must manage our little home well.”
“Mhm! I’ll listen to you!”
Han Xuewei’s mouth was full of dumplings as she spoke, making her words somewhat muffled, yet utterly adorable.
“Lin Yi, you try some too; they’re delicious.”
At that moment, she picked up a dumpling and gently offered it to Lin Yi’s lips.
The dumpling, coming from the beauty’s hand, surely had a special flavor. Lin Yi, with eyes full of smiles, didn’t refuse. He took the dumpling, along with her chopsticks, into his mouth. Amorous elements undulated between them.
The couple took advantage of the late-night snack to unabashedly flirt with each other.
After a while, they finished their late-night meal and went upstairs to wash up and get ready to rest.
Everything prepared, Lin Yi felt a bit uneasy, picked up a blanket, and said, “I should probably sleep in the next room!”
Han Xuewei’s face flushed red, her eyes filled with reluctance. Seeing Lin Yi about to walk out the door, she anxiously grabbed hold of him, throwing caution and her shyness to the wind.
“Lin Yi, stay with me tonight!”
“We’re getting our certificate tomorrow, and we already have the baby; we’re legitimately husband and wife, so there’s no need to sleep separately.”
“Let’s… let’s just be natural about it.”
As she spoke, Han Xuewei’s cheeks were so red they seemed to bleed.
The night they conceived the child, both of them had been drinking, and it was a complete accident. This time, it would be a truly meaningful sharing of the bed. Between them, there was an added layer of shyness and discomfort.
“Vivi, don’t worry, I won’t do anything improper. I may be young and vigorous, but I can still distinguish right from wrong,” Lin Yi promised, holding Han Xuewei’s hand, reassuring her repeatedly.
No sooner had he finished speaking than his gaze quickly drifted away, truthfully unable to linger any longer.
His heart was in turmoil. A beauty of stunning grace stood before him, visible but untouchable, which man could endure that?
Had Han Xuewei not been pregnant, Lin Yi would never have endured such hardship.
But given the current circumstances, he had no choice but to bear with it. It was said online that the first three months of pregnancy were the most dangerous, and sexual intercourse could lead to complications.
The uncomfortable couple both got into bed, their bodies stiff as they lay facing away from each other. Lin Yi, struggling greatly with the restraint, bored and in agony, took out his phone, ready to play a game.
Just then, a sharp cry from Han Xuewei instantly clenched his heart.
“Vivi, what’s wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?”
Lin Yi quickly sat up, his voice filled with concern.
“Lin Yi, the baby moved. I just felt it clear as day, the baby moved inside my stomach. It’s an indescribably wonderful feeling.”
Han Xuewei’s eyes sparkled, her whole being radiated with joy as she spoke excitedly.
Hearing this, Lin Yi, about to become a father for the first time, marveled at the miracle of life, and reached out his hand, saying, “Vivi, can I feel it too?”
He asked tentatively, the child in Han Xuewei’s belly was his own flesh and blood; his excitement was irrepressible.
Seeing the look on Lin Yi’s face, Han Xuewei knew how much he cared about the child in her womb. She was instantly wrapped in a sense of bliss and rolled on her side to lie flat.
“Lin Yi, put your ear close to my stomach. Then you can hear what our child is up to. It’s such a happy feeling,” she said sweetly.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yi quickly lay down, bowed his head, and pressed his ear to Han Xuewei’s belly, quieting his heart to feel carefully.
“Good baby, move a little, let your handsome dad see what you’re up to.”
“If there is anything you like or want, you can tell your handsome dad too. As soon as daddy graduates and starts working, no matter what nice things you want, we’ll buy them all!” Lin Yi spoke to the little treasure inside Han Xuewei’s belly.
After a while, no movement was felt from the baby, but instead, a voice from the system echoed in his mind.
“Ding!”
“Congratulations host for completing the tiny task of intimate contact with the baby and receiving a 200,000 reward from the system. You have three chances every day.”
Upon hearing the system’s voice, Lin Yi was immediately thrilled. As the child’s father, closeness with the baby came naturally.
With three chances a day to receive a reward, and at 200,000 each time, that was a total of 600,000.
It looked like there was no need to worry about money for baby formula and diapers in the future.
In this way, even if there were not just three children but a dozen, providing for them would not be an issue.
Han Xuewei looked at his silly expression and found it endearing, and couldn’t help but let out a soft laugh.
“You should brush up on your general knowledge. Our baby is only three months old and definitely can’t understand yet,” she teased with a smile.
“Vivi, you’re wrong there. The baby is over three months old now, and according to the information, at this stage, they are nearly fully formed. Fingers and toes have long developed.”
“The brain is one of the first organs to develop, and it should be getting more sophisticated by the day. Understanding their handsome dad’s words is definitely not a problem. Don’t move; let me talk to them a bit. It will be like prenatal education,” Lin Yi said earnestly.
Han Xuewei was successfully convinced and grabbed a pillow to prop behind her back, revealing her belly to continue letting Lin Yi communicate with the baby.
The relationship between them had grown much closer because of the little one in her stomach, turning the initial stiffness and embarrassment into nothingness.
Both their faces were brimming with smiles of happiness as they continually fantasized about their soon-to-be boisterous family of five.
