“Aye, it’s time for bed.”
Gu Shishi took a look at the alarm clock and decided to give up for the time being.
She needed to change her bad habit of staying up late in preparation for getting pregnant.
She must get into bed and had the lights off by 11 PM!
Thinking of that, she decisively washed out her paintbrush, dumped the water out in the bathroom, and after just half a minute, laid down flat in bed in lightning speed.
“Turn the lights off, Daddy Huo.”
Huo Sishen, “… …”
The one who’d normally read at least a few pages of manga had changed today.
Gu Shishi had already patted the spot next to her in bed. “We need to go to bed early and get up early. There will always be more work to tend to. Life is a marathon, not a sprint. We need to go for what is long term and watch out for our own health.”
She had a hard time telling him directly that she was just to adjust her body in preparation for their baby.
Aye.
She felt a little shy.
Having baby, after all, has to do with the unmentionable activities…
With her being vague about it, Huo Sishen didn’t think it was about having kids at all. He just assumed that she was concerned about his health.
He finally noticed that something was off a few days later.
He was having lunch by himself in the study because of a virtual conference.
And Qin Ruhai happened to be over.
As soon as he arrived, he pulled over a chair familiarly.
Checking on the patient’s eating habit was also part of the work of a family doctor.
Especially when his patient was a picky eater who didn’t like having vegetables.
Which was why Qin Ruhai paid special attention to his diet this time.
The second he looked at it, he was startled.
“Oh man. Boss, you are moving fast indeed. You just got onto third base and are already planning for the next step?”
By now, Qin Ruhai felt that he had a special kind of respect for Huo Sishen.
Huo Sishen didn’t even care about acknowledging what he had just said.
His ignoring him wasn’t going to stop Qin Ruhai from his active imagination
Lo and behold, Qin Ruhai’s speculation was actually dead on this time.
“Big Brother, so you finally had it all figured out huh? Hehe, do you prefer a boy or girl?”
He must admit that melon-eating could be very addicting.
Regardless of whether the other party was engaging with him, his desire for melon-eating remained high.
“A boy that resembles you or a girl that resembles sister-in-law will be nice. They will inherit both of your artistic and analytical ability and be pretty like sister-in-law.”
Huo Sishen’s handsome face dropped. “I don’t have time for nonsense.”
Qin Ruhai knew that that was the cue for him to stop talking.
He just pretended that he didn’t hear him.
“If you want to have children, you will need to moderate your own schedule. You must stop all of your medications. At least for six months, get it?”
Huo Sishen raised his brows.
He had stopped taking the medicines a long time ago.
Why would he keep taking after he realized that they were not doing anything for him?
He was no idiot.
Nevertheless—
“There is no such thing.”
He concluded decisively.
“We don’t need kids right now,” said Huo Sishen in no uncertain terms.
Qin Ruhai was taken aback a little and he looked at Huo Sishen’s lunch sitting in front of him again.
“Tsk. You just won’t admit to it.”
He pulled out his cellphone and flipped over to the article that his sister had recommended.
“Look, the second recommended recipe is identical to what you are eating today.”
Huo Sishen skimmed over it.
His lips shut tightly.
Sure enough. From vegetables to beef and there were even sesames on the rice.
Exactly the same…
He suddenly recalled how the girl had been going to bed early, working out, adjusting her eating habit… scene after scene flashed through his mind.
She wanted to have a kid?
