Chapter 1206: Chapter 1206: Beloved, Precious

"Sister-in-law, stop making fun of us," Qin Jian said, digging out his keys from his pocket, "Could you please help me open the door?"

Zhang Lanxiang took the keys and continued to tease them, "Just look at you two, can’t bear to be apart."

"Sister-in-law, it’s not what you think..." An Hao said with a blushing face.

"Alright, no need to explain! I’ve been there, what don’t I understand?" Zhang Lanxiang said with a smile, "I’m really starting to see Qin Jian in a new light! He wasn’t like this before, he wouldn’t even talk to women, not to mention help them up if they fell right in front of him. The girls from the cultural troupe would blush at the sight of him, yet no one dared to approach! But with you, it’s really something rare. Look at him, he truly treats you like the apple of his eye and as precious as his own flesh and blood!"

"Sister-in-law, I’ll explain it to you later," Qin Jian told Zhang Lanxiang.

"No need to explain, I understand everything!" The affection between you two is a good thing; besides, there’s nothing to explain.

She seemed really nice, really happy.

An Hao smiled helplessly and said nothing more.

She didn’t plan on telling Zhang Lanxiang about her near miscarriage because if she found out, Zhang Jianguo would too, and he might inadvertently say the wrong thing, which could reach her parents-in-law’s ears.

If that were to happen, it would probably lead to chaos for a while.

Qin Jian carried An Hao into the house, placed her on the bed, and squatted down to help her take off her shoes, "Go on! Lie down and rest, and don’t move a muscle! Leave all the housework to me."

"But, I feel so uncomfortable... covered in sweat..." She had been sweating all day and her clothes were still damp, giving off a sour smell.

An Hao was a person who loved cleanliness and couldn’t stand it at all.

"You can’t bathe, just endure it. You’re a doctor, after all, you must know to follow the doctor’s advice," Qin Jian said, looking down at her.

"I know." How could she dare not listen to the doctor?

The problem with the baby in her belly was more distressing to her than anyone else could understand.

But, she had to endure the stench for at least three to five days without a shower, and while she might not mind it herself, she was afraid that Qin Jian, who loved cleanliness, wouldn’t be able to stand her body odor.

Qin Jian seemed to have read her mind and said with a smile, "You’re not afraid I’ll dislike you, are you?"

"Mhm. Will you?" An Hao looked at him with wide, watery eyes.

Qin Jian leaned down and kissed her forehead, "Not at all! I think everything about you is wonderful, even the scent of sweat on you is sweeter than others’."

"Qin Jian, have you smeared honey on your lips? How do you know to talk so sweetly?" An Hao hadn’t really noticed such a big change in Qin Jian before.

"Those sweet nothings are only meant for you. But every word I say to you comes from my heart," Qin Jian said seriously, placing his hand over his chest.

"You’re so cheesy... it’s making my teeth fall out," An Hao said with a laugh-filled look in her eyes, truly sweetened by his words.

"Oi, can you two be aware of your surroundings? There’s still someone sitting out here. I’ve got goosebumps all over listening to that," Zhang Lanxiang couldn’t help teasing them from the living room.

"Alright, now go outside! It’s impolite to leave sister-in-law hanging by herself," An Hao urged Qin Jian.

Qin Jian came out of the bedroom, ready to make tea and pour water for Zhang Lanxiang, "Sister-in-law, please sit for a while."

"There’s no need to bother. I was just passing by to see how An Hao was doing, planning to leave when I saw the house locked up, then I just happened to run into you all," Zhang Lanxiang said.
