Chapter 560: Chapter 545: An Extraordinary Child

She just suddenly craved lamb, really wanted to eat it.

Recently, her belly had started to show a little. Although it wasn’t obvious, this made Qin Yun finally feel like she was really pregnant.

When in a good mood, naturally, food tastes better.

She wanted to eat everything.

Pei Yan confirmed with some concern, "Really?"

Qin Yun nodded earnestly.

Pei Yan was relieved and had the master arrange a whole roasted lamb, and also had lots of other food brought in, hosting a big barbecue party.

He invited An Yueqian, Li Ning, Mr. Pei, Mrs. Pei, Father Tang, and Mother Tang, even calling back Tang Zi and Tang Jun who were out discussing business.

Also, Yang Leqi and Wang Sirui were supposed to come, but they went to the hospital today, and no one knew what happened exactly. Yang Leqi hadn’t explained in detail.

At four in the afternoon, the master finished roasting the lamb, everyone arrived, and a table was set in the courtyard, where everyone sat together eating and chatting.

Qin Yun could only drink juice, which left her somewhat craving.

After all, she was Taotie; drinking a little shouldn’t be a problem. Thinking this, Qin Yun reached out to take Pei Yan’s wine glass.

Pei Yan was drinking red wine, but just as she touched the glass, Pei Yan lightly tapped her hand, "Don’t touch."

Qin Yun drew her hand back in grievance, "I didn’t want to drink, just wanted to take a look."

Pei Yan snorted, moving the wine glass to the other side, making sure Qin Yun couldn’t reach it, then turned back to talk with others, while An Yueqian sitting opposite laughed until tears came.

Li Ning patted her back, gently reminding, "Sister Yueqian, be careful, don’t choke."

An Yueqian nodded perfunctorily, tears streaming down as she laughed.

Watching their interaction, Qin Yun suddenly felt that An Yueqian didn’t seem as opposed to Li Ning as she used to be. Did something happen between them?

"Sister Yueqian, eat this."

In response, Li Ning diligently put food in An Yueqian’s bowl, finally calming her down, and after coughing once, she started to eat.

Shrimp was also peeled and placed in her bowl.

Li Ning, beside her, ate very little, surrounded mostly by shrimp shells.

An Yueqian frowned and said, "You eat yourself, don’t worry about me." 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

"You just did your nails, don’t ruin them."

Li Ning kept his head down, continuing to handle the food, ensuring everything in An Yueqian’s dish was ready to eat.

Yang Leqi looked on enviously, while Wang Sirui pulled her hand, and when she looked down, her plate was full of food too.

So, pampering is contagious, one after another, becoming so lovey-dovey that it’s hard to watch.

Pei Yan started it, followed by Li Ning and Wang Sirui, Yang Leqi said this behavior is birds of a feather flock together.

Though Pei Yan didn’t let Qin Yun drink wine, he offered freshly squeezed juice from all the fruits Qin Yun liked, like corn, mango, watermelon, orange, strawberry—there was a small cart behind her filled with juices, everything she could want.

Qin Yun would drink a bit, and Pei Yan would pour a little more for her, his attentiveness and care earned appreciative nods from Mr. Pei, Mrs. Pei, Father Tang, and Mother Tang.

The dinner extended until after seven and then concluded.

An Yueqian had Li Ning bring down loads of stuff from the car, all for children’s use.

She told Qin Yun, "I’m telling you, these are all handmade by someone I found, look, aren’t they beautiful."

When An Yueqian was having An Chengjin, she put in a lot of effort, researched many things, and left all her love to An Chengjin.

So she’s very experienced.

At that time, she made many things without knowing whether a boy or a girl, but the child grows fast, and many items didn’t get used before he grew out of them.

They’re perfect for the unborn baby now.

An Yueqian introduced them one by one, "Look, this is for wrapping the newborn, anyway I’ll be there then, just keep them safe."

"These little shoes too, specially handmade by an old lady, over eighty, it’s said that children wearing her shoes are exceptionally well-behaved."

"And this, the longevity lock, it’s specially blessed, I just went to request it. When An Chengjin was young, he often got sick, I asked many people before finding this master, who suggested the peace charm, only then did An Chengjin’s health improve, you really must believe in some things."

An Yueqian presented a longevity lock, pure gold, with several bells hanging underneath, which tinkled melodiously with movement.

Qin Yun glanced at it, and a faint golden light indeed shone through on the lock.

This master with the blessing truly had some merit.

"Thank you, Sister Yueqian."

Qin Yun felt touched, An Yueqian seemed aloof, but she had a delicate, tender heart, thoughtful and considerate.

An Yueqian touched Qin Yun’s tummy gently, smiling warmly, "It’s nothing, your child is also my child, I look forward to his arrival too. Yunyun, when I went to request the longevity lock today, the master said the child in your womb is my benefactor, quite extraordinary."

Qin Yun grew interested, could the master discern even this?

"What did the master say?"

Recalling, last time when she requested the peace charm, the master was serene yet invoked awe, but this time, he not only smiled at her but asked many questions about the baby.

After saying some things, the master smiled even more benevolently, and his gaze held satisfaction.

"This child is no ordinary one, you must treat him well."

After saying that, the master took out a blessed longevity lock, though An Yueqian initially just wanted a peace charm.

Unexpectedly, the master was so accommodating, giving the longevity lock voluntarily.

Mind you, the master only gives the longevity lock to those he deems worthy, no amount of money could buy it, and he’s only given out two locks from then to now.

"I think the baby in your womb must be a little genius, even the master said he’s exceptional."

An Yueqian was a bit excited, her adorable demeanor captivating Li Ning to the point he didn’t look away.

Yet Qin Yun raised an eyebrow.

Out of the ordinary?

Certainly out of the ordinary, she is a Divine Beast, her child must also be a Divine Beast!

"The master is very skilled."

Qin Yun nodded in praise, improving An Yueqian’s mood even more, "You must keep the longevity lock safe, it ensures peace, so when the baby is born, he’ll have a smooth and safe life."

"Thank you, Sister Yueqian."

Qin Yun expressed gratitude again and carefully arranged the items An Yueqian brought.

The two leaned close, whispering, while Li Ning sat beside them, not nosing into their privacy.

Qin Yun nudged An Yueqian, "How are you two doing?"

An Yueqian pretended not to understand, "What do you mean how?"

"You and Li Ning, what’s your plan?"

Qin Yun held An Yueqian’s hand, asking quietly, "Such a great guy, whose eyes and heart are only for you, really hard to find."

An Yueqian was a bit curious, "How do you know his eyes and heart are only for me?"
