He stood up, holding her waist with both hands, imagining how her waist would gradually thicken and her belly would swell to the point where walking would be difficult. If in the future he couldn’t be by her side... what would she do?

Thinking of this, he felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife, it was so painful.

"You seem unhappy, is it because of the old man’s passing?" Gu Qingxin tenderly touched his face.

"Hmm." Other than responding, Beiming Han couldn’t do anything because he had no excuse to explain his sadness.

If he was really... seriously ill, he couldn’t tell her either...

"The old man was a good person, I believe he has already been reborn into a new life, in a good family, starting anew." Gu Qingxin concocted a beautiful story to comfort him.

Beiming Han stood up and held her in his arms. He leaned against the headboard, not letting her see the tears he quickly wiped away with his hand.

"That’s good then."

"Ah Han, it’s okay, you still have me and Baobao in the future, the three of us will always be with you, our family of four will always be together, never leaving each other." Gu Qingxin lifted her head, resting her chin on his chest, her lips curled into a smile.

"Xin’er, I..." Listening to her words, Beiming Han felt even more distressed.

The future she depicted was so beautiful, he could envision such a scene; in a bright and warm villa, she’s wearing a white dress, two adorable babies crawling around on the floor, while he prepares formula for them, handing her one bottle. Each of them holds a baby and starts feeding them...

"Ah Han, what’s wrong with you today? You keep hesitating to speak. Is there something we can’t say to each other now?" Gu Qingxin unhappily climbed onto him, wrapping her arms tightly around his neck.

"No, I wanted to say... I have been diligently taking my medicine these past few days." Beiming Han forced out a sentence.

Gu Qingxin knowingly said ’oh’, "From today onwards, Baobao and I will monitor you taking your medicine, and supervise your meals. Each meal, how much you eat, what you eat, will all be strictly regulated, understand?"

Beiming Han touched her face, feeling the urge to cry, yet he still made an effort to smile, "Okay."

"Ah! In that case, I’ll reward you tonight by making your favorite hand-rolled noodles!" Gu Qingxin immediately wanted to get out of bed upon thinking of this.

"Xin’er, I don’t want to eat." Beiming Han promptly hugged her tightly. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

"Huh?" Gu Qingxin looked at him in surprise, he actually said he didn’t want to eat.

"What I mean is, tonight I just want to hold you, just hold you like this, doing nothing else." Beiming Han shifted her little buttocks upwards so they were face to face, and she wouldn’t have to look up at him all the time.

"You’re misbehaving again! We agreed you need to take care of your stomach, so you must eat!" Gu Qingxin leaned over and kissed him, "We still have the whole night to hold each other, don’t we?"

Hearing this, Beiming Han’s heart turned to mush, he smiled, "Yes, we have a whole night to hold each other."

"No, that’s not right, not just one night. Whenever we have time in the future, we can hold each other." Gu Qingxin playfully stuck out her tongue at him.

"But in the future, there might be two little things between us." Beiming Han placed his hand over her belly.
