Chapter 147
"Have you thought it over?"
"Is it okay? If it's a girl, we'll bring Zhengzheng over later. Having such a daughter-in-law would be great. Don't let the good water flow outside."
Xue Jingrui...
He found himself struggling to keep up with Qi Ji's thought process.
"Are you ready?" Xue Jingrui still felt that Qi Ji was a bit too young, and if he really...
wouldn't it be a bit beastly?
"Anything for the baby," Qi Ji said.
Xue Jingrui hesitated for a moment. He originally wanted to know if Qi Ji was doing this solely for the sake of a child, but then he recalled the conversation from the previous day.
He also thought about the example of Xu Xiuhe and Shen Yin. Feelings can be cultivated slowly. For now, they could take it one step at a time, and figure out the rest later.
With a tug from Xue Jingrui, Qi Ji landed back on the bed.
"Brother Jingrui, I checked my dates on the Mei You app. It's very suitable, with a high probability."
"What dates?"
"Ovulation period."
"But what if it doesn't work the first time?" Xue Jingrui asked.
This question stumped Qi Ji, as she hadn't considered this possibility before. She thought she should have no trouble getting pregnant. Is it really that difficult to conceive? She hadn't looked into it.
"I'm healthy, sleep and wake up early, and have a regular routine. There shouldn't be any problems," Qi Ji explained.
Xue Jingrui...
So it would come down to his own ability. If she couldn't get pregnant, would it be his fault?
If that's the case, he would have to perform well. His body wasn't bad, and he wasn't too old. If it didn't work the first time, they could try again.
"Wait for me here, I'll turn on a light."
"Brother Jingrui, don't turn it on!" Qi Ji exclaimed.
Xue Jingrui...
Could he say he wouldn't be able to do it?
"Okay, no lights. Wait for me, I'll go drink some water."
Qi Ji nodded.
Xue Jingrui took his phone and stepped outside, frantically searching online. He regretted not acquiring more knowledge earlier.
That way, he wouldn't have to learn everything at the last minute.
"Don't rush, don't be hasty, be gentle, be tender..." The answers flooded in.
After a few minutes, when Xue Jingrui felt he had learned enough, he returned to the bedroom.
Qi Ji had been waiting obediently.
There was still a difference between theory and practice, but Xue Jingrui studied diligently.
"I've never done this before, so I need to learn."
Hearing this, Qi Ji felt inexplicably happy.
"Brother Jingrui, where's the watermelon?"
"The watermelon is outside."
Xue Jingrui took the opportunity to lower the air conditioning temperature.
"It's summer now, be mindful of the heat. Drink more water. Keep me at the top of your contacts list."
Qi Ji understood immediately.
She no longer felt uncomfortable.
She wanted the baby herself, so no matter how difficult or tiring it became, she had to persevere. One shouldn't abandon something halfway.
"Can the baby's father be anyone, or only me?" Xue Jingrui asked, clearly concerned about the answer.
Qi Ji's last trace of consciousness remained. She hadn't considered this question before. Now that Xue Jingrui had asked, she pondered it. There was no one else, she hadn't thought about anyone else.
"Only you."
Hearing this, Xue Jingrui...
"You must be tired. That's enough for today." Xue Jingrui didn't continue. After several attempts, following the advice he had found online, it was more than enough.
Instead of rushing Qi Ji to take a shower, he placed a pillow under her lower back.
"Brother Jingrui, is it over?" Qi Ji's voice was soft and gentle.
In the moonlight, Xue Jingrui could see Qi Ji's expression.
He couldn't bear to continue, the poor girl was so delicate.
"You're almost out of it, Qi Ji," he said softly.
"We don't need to finish everything in one night. We have a long way to go, let's take it slow. Don't rush." Xue Jingrui reassured her.
Qi Ji nodded with difficulty, she was too tired.
Xue Jingrui went to the bathroom, filled a basin with water, and brought a towel to wipe Qi Ji's body.
He still didn't turn on the lights, afraid the brightness would disturb her sleep.
The next morning, before Qi Ji woke up, she felt something on her body.
Did Xue Jingrui's words from the previous night turn out to be lies?
"Reinforcing it will help with getting pregnant."
Later, when the man went to work, Qi Ji sat on the couch for a long time. When she opened her phone, she saw 99+ notifications in the group chat.
She scrolled through them one by one, finding that most were calling for her. Feeling ashamed, she replied immediately.
[Sisters, I was a bit busy last night and didn't have my phone. I think Zhengzheng is about to become my daughter-in-law.]
[Wow, Qi Ji, you move so fast?]
[I'm a woman of action. Just wait, Zhengzheng will be my daughter-in-law.]
[Mother-in-law @Shen Yin]
[Qi Ji, have you considered that you might be carrying a baby boy right now?] Shu Yi remarked.
[Sister Shu Yi, I think it's probably a little girl.] Qi Ji replied.
[......] Shen Yin sent a string of ellipses.
[How many times?]
Qi Ji looked at Shu Yi's message and carefully recalled last night.
And this morning too.
[4 times]
[6 times, that's way too much.] Shu Yi exclaimed.
Qi Ji blushed, hugging the watermelon, "Watermelon, you're going to have a little sister."
Shen Yin had been keeping Zhengzheng company in the small building. Since winning the embroidery competition, her studio had received a large influx of business.
Shen Yin felt she couldn't handle that many gown orders, so she imposed a limit. Now, appointments were booked until the Mid-Autumn Festival.
With about 20 days left until the national embroidery finals, Shen Yin wasn't in a hurry. Her skills were evident, and she wasn't worried at all. The most important thing now was taking good care of Zhengzheng and helping her recover.
There was also the matter of the dream she had the other night. She had no clue about it, so as a precaution, she decided not to go out for the time being.
With five dogs guarding the entrance, the house was very safe.
Wang Nannan sent a message, and Shen Yin, carrying Zhengzheng, went upstairs.
"Boss, there's a custom gown order with quite a few requirements. I'm not sure if the design I sketched meets the specifications. Could you please take a look?" Wang Nannan showed the design to Shen Yin, who also reviewed the customer's requirements.
"Modify the neckline a bit, no shallow V-neck, a deep V-neck would be better. Use embroidery for the skirt. I'll embroider it later, then have them sew it on."
"Got it, thank you, Boss."
Wang Nannan had learned a lot working at the studio recently, and of course, her salary was high too.
This boss, Shen Yin, was truly skilled. Wang Nannan eagerly anticipated the upcoming national competition.
As long as Shen Yin wins the national competition, she and her studio will gain nationwide fame, and her customers will no longer be limited to just those from Rong City.
Working with an excellent boss like this, Wang Nannan believes her prospects are promising. As long as she works hard, one day she too will become an excellent designer.
Just like her boss's embroidery, which is renowned nationwide.
Shen Yin has applied more medication to Zhengzheng's tummy. Today she examined Zhengzheng's belly and found it looking a little better than yesterday. She believes in a few more days, Zhengzheng will have fully recovered.
"Is Zhengzheng's tummy still itchy today?"
