The corners of Xie Limo’s lips twitched. He turned around, smiling as he looked at Yun Bixue. His smile was as warm as the radiant sun.
He walked over to look at the way she was sleeping, and his eyes were filled with love.
Yun Bixue knew that he was standing beside her. Even with her eyes shut, she could sense his burning gaze on her. She opened her eyes and asked, “Do you like staring at me so much?”
“Xue, you’re gorgeous. Of course I like to look at you.”
Yun Bixue giggled, joy written all over her face. “I’ve been pregnant for so long, and my stomach is huge. How can I still look gorgeous?”
“You’re still gorgeous to me.”
Yun Bixue looked at Xie Limo while lying down. Either the sight before her eyes was too beautiful, or that his words were simply too sweet. She couldn’t help but blush.
Seeing Yun Bixue’s flushed cheeks, Xie Limo recalled the first few moments that they had spent together.
He still remembered that their lips had unintentionally touched the first time they kissed. It was also in the study, albeit the one in their Ning An City villa.
Despite being married for so long and even shared intimacy, she still couldn’t help but feel shy when Xie Limo looked at her so lovingly.
“The others will laugh at us if they were to see us!”
“We’re at home. No one can see us.”
Yun Bixue could feel herself getting more conscious. Since she couldn’t stop her husband at all, she would just shut her eyes and cover her head with a cushion. That way, he wouldn’t be able to see her.
Xie Limo removed the cushion and said, “You won’t be able to breathe if you cover yourself like that.”
“Aren’t you going to let me sleep?”
“It’s almost noon. The servants are done cooking. Eat your lunch first before sleeping.” Xie Limo was worried that it would be detrimental to her health if she were to sleep before eating.
With the mention of lunch, Yun Bixue realized that she was indeed rather hungry. She blinked her eyes and said, “I want to eat fried prawns and crab.”
Xie Limo shook his head resolutely. “No way. Those are unhealthy, and it’s not good for pregnant women to eat them. After giving birth, you can eat everything that you want to.”
“I really can’t eat them?”
Xie Limo nodded sternly.
Yun Bixue swallowed and obliged. “Fine. I’ll bear with it for now.”
Xie Limo instructed Yun Bixue to wait in the study, and he went to the kitchen to take a look.
Yun Bixue thought that she wasn’t a kid anymore and wondered why he still had to order her to stay in the room.
Since she wasn’t allowed to sleep, she would then read some books to pass the time.
During lunch, Yun Bixue was surprised to find two fried prawns on her plate. Despite the small amount, she was very excited.
She looked at Xie Limo with twinkling eyes and couldn’t help but hug and kiss him.
“Enough, don’t be so excited. Be careful. Sit down and eat properly.”
Yun Bixue’s eyes were sparkling as she sat down obediently. Before she could move her hands, Xie Limo scooped up the two pieces of prawns and began peeling the shells away. He then placed the peeled prawns in Yun Bixue’s bowl.
But Yun Bixue couldn’t wait any longer. She opened her mouth and stuffed the prawns inside. Her eyes narrowed as though she was having the time of her life.
Xie Limo thought as though he was feeding a hungry child. What was odd was that he was willing to oblige and feed her.
It was just two prawns, so they weren’t enough. After eating them, Yun Bixue glanced at her empty plate and stuck out her tongue. She looked pitifully at Xie Limo.
Xie Limo couldn’t say no to that look on her face, and he almost gave in.
