Chapter 891: Chapter 891 Rewards

Back home, he saw several baskets in the yard, all filled with washed IV bottles. Luo Qiao could not help but laugh, "You really found quite a lot."

Lu Yichen sought recognition, "Is there a reward? This is just a part. There’s even more inside the house. If it’s not enough, I’ll go find more."

Luo Qiao smiled at the man, "There is a reward, but I want to take a bath first."

Lu Yichen stood up, "As you command, wife. I’ll get it ready for you right away."

While Luo Qiao went to take a bath after tidying up, Lu Yichen started to cook in the kitchen; the rice was already steaming in the rice cooker.

He glanced at the almost indecipherable characters in the palm of his hand, his movements never stopping.

By the time Luo Qiao had finished her bath, Lu Yichen had all the dishes ready.

Cucumber salad, sweet tomato mix, twice-cooked pork, Capital-style shredded pork in sweet bean sauce, braised eggplant, egg soup, and rice all ready, he helped dry Luo Qiao’s hair, "Sit down and eat, then let’s rest early."

"Pass me a glass of water, I’m a bit thirsty."

"Alright, sit down, and I’ll be right there."

"Did you eat poorly outside? You’ve lost weight. Eat more later."

"Has Auntie Liu come by these days?"

"She stopped coming over two days ago. She said the morning sickness wasn’t so severe anymore, and her son-in-law took her home."

Lu Yichen kept adding food to Luo Qiao’s plate, "Eat more. You were already slim, and now you’re even thinner."

After a sweet and cozy meal together, when Lu Yichen had finished cleaning up and returned to their room, he found Luo Qiao asleep against the head of the bed."

Softness flooded his heart as he thought about how tired she must have been, dozing off so soon after such a short while.

He quietly approached, intending to lay her down properly, when he sensed signs of Luo Qiao waking up, "Honey, let’s lie down properly if you’re tired."

But Luo Qiao opened her eyes in a daze, "I haven’t given you your reward yet."

Unfortunately, someone misunderstood, "Not to worry, after you’ve had a good rest. If you won’t take care of yourself, I will."

Luo Qiao did not understand at first, but then burst into laughter, "What are you thinking?"

She wrapped her arms around Lu Yichen’s neck and pulled him down, whispering in his ear, "Listen carefully, you’re going to be a dad."

Lu Yichen was initially stunned, then overjoyed as he looked at Luo Qiao, "Is it true, I’m going to be a dad?"

His eyes shone brightly as he reached out to touch Luo Qiao’s belly, then gave her a passionate kiss, "How long has it been? What should I do now?"

Luo Qiao could barely contain her mirth, "It’s been over fifty days. All you need to do is take good care of me."

Lu Yichen spoke almost incoherently, "Okay, okay, okay. Whatever you say goes. Ah, should we let grandpa, grandma, and your maternal grandfather, aunt know? Do you want them to come over and take care of you? I’m afraid I won’t do well enough."

Luo Qiao looked at the man tenderly, "Keep things as usual for now. We’ll tell them after some time has passed."

Lu Yichen placed a kiss on Luo Qiao’s forehead, "Qiao Bao, thank you."

Luo Qiao’s face was full of smiles, "Thank me for what?"

"Thank you for marrying me, for sharing your secrets with me, for going through hardship to conceive our baby."

"Then you have to be even better to me in the future."

"Yes, I will, and to our baby too."

When they went to bed that night, Lu Yichen carefully placed his hand on Luo Qiao’s belly, "Should we start preparing the baby’s things?"

Luo Qiao, having driven all day, listened to Lu Chen’s question and fell asleep before she could answer. Lu Yichen looked at his wife’s sleeping face and spoke softly, "Qiao Bao, goodnight."

Early the next morning, Lu Yichen woke up early and went outside to buy soybean milk pudding, soy milk, vegetable buns, sesame balls, and steamed buns to bring back.

Luo Qiao had woken up after Lu Yichen left and, after washing up, started meditating on the rooftop.

When Lu Yichen returned and did not find her inside, he looked out into the courtyard and saw his wife meditating on the rooftop, with vapors faintly circulating around her body.

He didn’t disturb her, but began tidying up the house, taking the day off to spend at home with Qiao Bao.

Thinking of the baby in Qiao Bao’s belly, his heart softened at the thought of having a daughter as sweet and clever as Luo Qiao.
