Chapter 2030: Baby’s Blanket
“I don’t want to,” Lu Xing replied with a lie. He would never say that he was jealous that Liang Yueze already had a child.
They had not celebrated the baby’s birth yet; the Luo family wanted to wait for 100 days.
Liang Yueze knew about the child, so his parents would have known they had a chubby grandson. Old Master Liang and Old Madam Liang went to see their great-grandson abroad. They only cared about holding the baby and helping Luo Ruoran teach Liang Yueze a lesson.
The elders in the Liang and Luo families were open-minded. Luo Ruoran had not said anything about reconciling with Liang Yueze, so the Liang family did not mention anything about giving their name to the baby. They also did not force Liang Yueze to work when Luo Ruoran was in confinement.
Old Master Liang and Old Madam Liang said that they did not care whether the child’s surname was Luo or Liang. In any case, the baby had their bloodline. Even if Luo Ruoran did not reconcile with Liang Yueze, they would be satisfied if they were allowed to visit the child. They did not care about anything else.
They even said that if Liang Yueze made Luo Ruoran unhappy, they would agree if Luo Ruoran did not let Liang Yueze see the child. They would do anything to carry their great-grandson.
Liang Yueze was suffering. He had a child, but it was hard to say if the baby would have the same surname as him. After all, Luo Ruoran was no longer his wife.
His parents, brother, and sister-in-law had turned their backs on him. One could say he was alone in that.
“You
Jiang Yao was left speechless by Lu Xingzhi’s words. She snorted, put away her phone, and ignored Lu Xingzhi.
Lu Xingzhi was not in a hurry to coax her. Instead, he reached out and touched
Jiang Yao’s belly. “Our son might look like me.”
Jiang Yao could feel the warmth of Lu Xingzhi’s palm through her clothes. He touched it very gently and carefully. Then, he mumbled, “Why is it still flat?”
“It’s actually protruding a little.”
Jiang Yao lifted her clothes, saying, “Look carefully. Isn’t it rounder now? I used to be very thin, and I don’t have much fat here. So, it’s obvious that I’m pregnant.”
Jiang Yao’s skin was perfect. Her belly, which had not been exposed to the sun all year round, was as white as a piece of white jade. Lu Xingzhi looked at it with great interest. He endured it; he did not touch it. Instead, he covered Jiang Yao’s belly and said, “Don’t catch a cold.”
“Oh, I have to cover the baby with this blanket.”
Jiang Yao nodded and smoothed her clothes. Then, she raised her head and smiled at Lu Xingzhi.
The smile dazzled Lu Xingzhi. If he were not driving, he would kiss his wife.
The car arrived at the army base entrance about an hour later. Jiang Yao was still in the car when he saw a woman dressed fashionably at the entrance. The woman had permed hair, and she was in high heels. She seemed a little out of place.
“Is that Zhou Hailan?” Jiang Yao exclaimed.
“Yes,” Lu Xingzhi said. He guessed that Zhou Hailan must be looking for him. However, Zhou Hailan did not recognize his car, so she did not stop them. He drove past Zhou Hailan and into the army unit.
Jiang Yao clicked her tongue and said, “I haven’t seen Zhou Hailan in a while. She looks much more haggard. Now she doesn’t look as imposing as when I saw her at the photography studio..”
