Seeing his wife was still lost in thought, Li Xiu kissed her until she was nearly out of breath. Zhou Lian looked at him, exasperated. 'He's as childish as a kid.'
A night of passion led to Zhou Lian sleeping in until late morning. At four months pregnant, her belly showed a slight bump. Zhou Lian stood before her vanity, gazing at her radiant reflection, a little dazed. 'So I can be this beautiful, too.'
In her past life, she'd had terrible morning sickness at this stage. With nothing good to eat and poor nutrition, she was groggy every day. But this time, perhaps because she was eating well and getting enough nutrients, she had almost no symptoms. Now, she ate well, slept well, and was always in a good mood—she didn't have a single worry. Li Xiu took care of practically everything, allowing her to focus on peacefully nurturing their baby.
