Chapter 157: Chapter 154 The Daughter-in-law Has a Little Baby [1100 votes+]

————-

He, he’s back??

On closer inspection, with her spiritual power piercing through the door, Zhang Shanni saw the tall and upright figure of the man, clad in a daunting and precise military uniform, holding a military travel bag in his hand, standing rigidly with a firm posture, solidly stationed behind the door.

Xie Jingchen, he really came back!

The moment the door opened, Zhang Shanni felt the fragrance of spring in full bloom.

Xie Jingchen seemed to sense something. He had been standing solemnly at the front door of the new home, and when he heard the soft footsteps of his little wife inside the house, the moment Zhang Shanni’s spiritual power enveloped him through the door frame, he seemed to respond, slightly lifting his deep, level gaze.

What is it? Felt by Zhang Shanni’s spiritual power, Xie Jingchen’s brow briefly knitted in a slight nervous tension. This feeling...

It was as if he was being watched by some ’thing,’ making him uncomfortable all over, and even though he didn’t sense any ’malice’, his willpower was astonishing. Later on, he was even enhanced by the ’Energy Water’ that Zhang Shanni had boosted him with, elevating his vigilance by a degree, instinctively going on guard.

But having experienced much, what he thought in his heart, few could discern his true intentions.

At this moment, Zhang Shanni behind the door was simply excited, how could she sense that he ’seemed’ to have noticed her Spiritual Body.

In fact, it’s quite normal. Even if Xie Jingchen didn’t return, Zhang Shanni has rarely used her spiritual power in the Rong District. She was afraid of provoking the wariness of others, causing trouble.

With a "click," the door opened.

"Wife." Seeing the petite woman leaning against the door frame, the delicate face in Xie Jingchen’s mind suddenly became reality, and he excitedly stepped forward, his large hand naturally slipping around her slender waist—

Slender?

Something about the touch felt wrong to Xie Jingchen, but by this time Zhang Shanni had already realized, and with a low cry she called out:

"Brother Chen, you’ve finally returned!"

Then with reddened eyes, she threw herself into his embrace,

What is it?.....

Xie Jingchen’s mind went blank for a moment, but hearing the cries of the woman inside the house, he quickly responded by gently embracing the little woman sobbing in his arms, and entered the house, locking the door.

He kept those probing glances in the hallway firmly outside the door.

Xie Jingchen casually swept his gaze over the interior, the changes in the house being solely the work of his wife. Not having time to take it all in, he just tossed the travel bag he was holding beside the door and immediately placed both hands on Zhang Shanni’s waist—

At this touch, he immediately deduced that his little wife was, could it be, pregnant?

Pregnant with his child?!!

"Be a good wife, don’t cry, I’m back now," Xie Jingchen said, his voice filled with excitement as he whispered softly to soothe her.

He was already excited, for upon his return to the military to report on his mission, he also found out that his wife had come to the Rong District ahead of schedule. He was eager to get home immediately. But the military had its regulations, so he could only restrain his excitement, dragging out the day and night to complete all the procedures as quickly as possible before he could rush home.

Yes, to his home, to the home with his little wife.

But why had no one told him that his little wife was carrying a little baby?!!

"Brother Chen, Brother Chen, I’m scared..." Seeing the man, Zhang Shanni felt the accumulated worries and sorrows rushing up, her tears falling like they cost nothing...

Now she had grown a little taller, standing at one meter and sixty-five, her sweet voice said, "Husband, hug me, I’m tired!"

........

Four months not seen, the little wife has grown a bit, her face was healthily rosy. Her normally spirited eyes were now red and swollen from crying, making them appear even more lustrous, her slightly pouted lips itching for his touch.

Towards this little woman of his own, Xie Jingchen felt possessiveness and fondness.

Perhaps he had many doubts about her in the past, but the thought that this woman was his wife, soon to be the mother of his child, and she gave her genuine heart to him [offering him to use the good things, wasn’t that enough sincerity?], the only thing he could offer her in return was his ’trust’.

Although they weren’t together long at home, most of their time was shared on the same bed under the same blanket, her reservation was instinctual. She was naturally protective of her family, especially in her dealings with elders and children, reflecting her kind and amiable nature.

On that alone, he was willing to trust her.

......

Xie Jingchen indeed sat down here because he saw a thermal cup placed in front of where he was sitting.

His little wife had been crying so much that her voice had gone hoarse, and he didn’t know how much wrong she had been done while he was away from home that she had cried for so long. It was just right to give her a sip of water to moisten her throat. Xie Jingchen felt pity and reached for the thermal cup to her lips...

"Be a good wife, have some water."

If Zhang Shanni knew what he was thinking, she’d definitely retort unceremoniously that it wasn’t because she cried herself hoarse; she’d been spacing out for so long and just low cried twice, that’s why her voice was rough!

The warmth on her lips made Zhang Shanni obediently take a sip, the dryness in her throat alleviated by the moisture. Finally coming to her senses, she took the thermal cup from his hand, sipped twice, then casually pressed the remaining water against his chin, "Brother Chen, want some water?"

"Mhm." Xie Jingchen finished off the remaining water in one gulp; perhaps it had been sitting for too long, the water inside the thermal cup was only lukewarm.

Zhang Shanni didn’t say anything, just quietly watched him with all his powerful motions. At this moment in her eyes, every movement made by her own man was exceptionally captivating, and she couldn’t help but daze into a silly smile.

Xie Jingchen’s eyes shimmered, his large hand already resting consciously on her slightly bulging belly, feeling the little wife snuggle up cozily in his shoulder nook, her meek and dependant gesture further lightening his mood.

"My dear wife, you’ve worked hard," Xie Jingchen bowed his head and gently kissed her forehead, his gaze softening unbelievably as it met her teary almond eyes, his mind going blank as he instinctively murmured, "I’ve missed you so much..."

.......

She had missed him, missed him very, very much.
