I'm Pregnant with the Villain's Child

Chapter 104 – Mom, Zhenzhen is pregnant (3)

“Never mind, we can talk about it after the baby is born. And... you’re not allowed to hit him! It doesn’t matter what he’s done wrong, you have to use words to explain why he’s wrong. Spoiling a child or being too strict with him are both extremes. They’re both bad parenting styles!”

William had already given him examples of how pregnant women would be unreasonable. If you want to keep a pregnant woman happy, you had to go along with her current mood. Besides, this wasn’t a big thing to promise her. Lu Beichuan smiled. “Okay, whatever you say goes. I’ll listen to you about everything.”

Ye Zhen nodded in satisfaction. “We won’t be able to hide my pregnancy for long. When do you plan on telling mom about it?”

This was truly a difficult problem.

If they told the truth that Ye Zhen was one-month pregnant, she would gain the reputation of someone that had cheated on her husband. After all, one month ago, Lu Beichuan was suppose to be in a coma.

However, if they kept quiet about her pregnancy, sooner or later, they wouldn’t be able to hide the secret from Mother Lu. As a woman that had experienced pregnancy before, Mother Lu would definitely notice when Ye Zhen’s pregnancy symptoms got worse.

Lu Beichuan hugged. “It’s okay. Leave this to me. Don’t worry about anything while you’re pregnant. I’ll take care of everything.”

It was strange. This matter had been weighing heavily in Ye Zhen’s heart and left her feeling so uneasy, but once Lu Beichuan said those words, it felt as if the burden was removed, and her body could relax.

“It’s late. Let’s go to sleep.”

Ye Zhen’s nerves had been stretched taut all day. From morning to night, she hadn’t had time to rest. Now that her head was touching a pillow, she really did feel a bit sleepy. She could feel Lu Beichuan stroking her head, and sleepiness poured over her like a tidal wave. She shifted a little bit on Lu Beichuan’s chest to find a comfortable angle and quickly fell asleep.

Lu Beichuan, who had been busy all day, also felt a bit exhausted. He felt a faint ache in his legs.

He thought about what would have happened if her flight at noon hadn’t been delayed because of the heavy snow. The person that was in his arms right now, he would have no idea where she would have flown off too. It wouldn’t be easy to look for a person in distant countries. Even worse than that, he didn’t want to imagine how difficult it would be for a pregnant woman to survive by herself in a foreign country.

The fear that came from losing someone precious and regaining her made him hug Ye Zhen tighter. He carefully caressed Ye Zhen’s flat belly that wasn’t protruding yet. He gently and softly kissed her forehead and smiled.

But fortunately, everything had been sorted out. It was all worth it.

Early next morning, Old Master Lu and the old butler left for the Lu’s ancestral home. It appeared that he wouldn’t be willing to come back anytime soon.

It made sense. No matter how much of a bastard Lu Shaoren was, he was still Old Master Lu’s son. Lu Shaoren was reaping what he had sown and his punishment was deserved, so Old Master Lu couldn’t express his anger at Lu Beichuan. He could only use the excuse that he was leaving to enjoy his retirement to rest for a while.

At the dining table, Ye Zhen was scooping out seafood congee with a spoon with dimming interest. It was strange. On a normal day, although she didn’t particularly like the fishy smell of seafood, it was tolerable. But today, it smelled absolutely revolting.

“What’s wrong? No appetite?”

Ye Zhen mustered up a smile. “Maybe it’s because I didn’t sleep well last night.”

Mother Lu immediately understood the meaning. She reproachfully looked at her son. “Beichuan, what’s wrong with you? Yesterday was exhausting for Zhenzhen. Why didn’t you let her have a good rest last night?”

Right after these words were said, Ye Zhen turned around and retched.

Lu Beichuan moved quickly to stroke Ye Zhen’s back. Ye Zhen waved her hand to gesture that she was okay.

Lu Beichuan took away the seafood congee that was in front of Ye Zhen. His expression didn’t change as he said, “Mom, Zhenzhen is pregnant. Our meals shouldn’t be too oily or strongly flavored in the future.”

“She’s pregnant?” Mother Lu paused for a moment before happily asking, “She got pregnant so quickly? How many days?”

Ye Zhen: “One month.”

Lu Beichuan: “Half a month.”

The two of them answered at the same time.

Mother Lu was at a loss. “Is it one month or half a month?”

Ye Zhen: “Half a month!”

Lu Beichuan:”One month!”

Mother Lu: “?”
