Chapter 389: Qing Qing, You Are Expecting?
There was no trace of surprise on Lu Shaoming’s face.He held a pair of chopsticks in his right hand. The silver button on his white shirt was sparkling under the shimmering light. He nodded his head lightly. “Yeah, I am serious. I will take care of him myself.”
“But…”
Everyone still hesitated, but there was a firm look on Lu Shaoming’s handsome face. They could only swallow their worry.
Ning Qing chewed a small mouthful of rice. She only dared to agree. What did he want to do exactly? Why would he want to raise Little Qinwen by himself for nothing?
Was he a baby nanny?
This word did not seem to match him at all.
Ning Qing did not dare to imagine.
Lu Shaoming used his chopsticks to pick a piece of tofu as he passed it to the side of Little Qinwen’s lips. Little Qinwen sat obediently in the baby seat beside him. He pursed his small, light pink lips as he was unwilling to eat the tofu that Daddy passed to him. He looked at Daddy in a daze. Daddy Daddy, do you really want to take care of me? But you do not have any experience at all.
Lu Shaoming stuffed the tofu past his tiny lips. He meant — You only have one choice, to obey!
Little Qinwen: …
Yue Wanqing laughed out loud to calm the situation at hand. “Shaoming, it is not impossible for you to bring Little Qinwen up by yourself, but you have to work, and we are bored with nothing to do at home. Why not…”
Song Yajing quickly nodded her head in agreement.
“Mum.” Lu Shaoming lifted his head up and gave both mothers a look. “Both of you would not be bored for a long period of time. You can wait to take care of your granddaughter.”
Granddaughter?
Both sets of parents all had a glow in their eyes. They were expectant yet careful as they looked at Ning Qing. “Qingqing, you are expecting?”
Ning Qing: “…”
She hated that she could not use her eyes to strangle the man beside her.
No one agreed with him raising Little Qinwen, but he was doing great. One casual line from him could direct everyone’s attention onto her.
He was evil on the inside but calm on the outside.
Evil.
“Mum, I…I am not.” Ning Qing shook her head.
The glow in both mother’s eyes dimmed immediately, but after a few seconds, their eyes lit up again, Yue Wanqing said, “It’s alright. If you do not have one right now, you will have one in the future. Qingqing, you have to nourish yourself well from today onwards. You have to work hard to give birth to one more and produce more descendants of the Lu family.”
“Haha, Ning Qing’s mother is right.” Song Yajing was smiling brightly like a flower. She took a soup spoon to give Ning Qing more soup. “Qingqing, you have more of this. Tomorrow morning, I have pre booked a nutritionist to help you nourish your body professionally. The Lu family is rich and wealthy. We can shoulder it if you give Shaoming three or five more kids. We also do not think that two or three is too few.”
Ning Qing: “…”
She could not control it in anymore. She could only kick the man’s calf harshly underneath the table.
That man did not move obediently and allowed her to kick him, but Ning Qing heard a low and charming laugh; he was laughing!
Ning Qing: Rascal!
After dinner, both set of parents bid farewell.
Ning Qing stuck with her own mother as she did not bear to let go.
Yue Wanqing noticed something was wrong, and noting that nobody was around, she softly asked, “Qingqing, what is wrong with you?”
Ning Qing spat her pink tongue out and was embarrassed. “Mum, I want to go home with you.”
Yue Wanqing heard her words and was displeased as she said, “Qingqing, what nonsense are you spouting? In the past, Shaoming was involved in some matters, and you only came to our home because of that. Now that the matters have been settled, you and Shaoming should move back here to lead your own lives. What tantrum are you throwing right now? Shaoming’s parents treat you like their own daughter. Shaoming also pampers you…”
Ning Qing knew that her own mother would criticize her. She pouted her pink lips and unhappily said, “He didn’t pamper me. In the past, when I was in England…”
She stopped talking.
No matter what. She was still unwilling to speak ill of him in front of mother.
But she was just unable to let it go. Women all liked to compare. He was absent in the month that she needed him the most. It was probably because he did not love her enough then.
Yue Wanqing was taken aback, and questioned her instead, “Qingqing, did Shaoming not tell you?”
“What?” Ning Qing did not understand.
Tell her what.
Yue Wanqing held her daughter’s small hand. “Qingqing, when you went to England for surgery, Shaoming accompanied you for the entire month.”
Ning Qing was flabbergasted. Her expression froze as she asked, “How could it be? He…”
“Qingqing, do you still remember that medical care worker that would accompany you every day?”
She remembered.
How could she not remember.
That person would feed her everyday. He helped her wipe the corners of her lips. That medical care worker would touch her head gently, and he had given her warmth during the span of the month.
That medical care worker…
Was Lu Shaoming?
Ning Qing got a definitive answer from her own mother. She was frustrated. That bad person. Why did he not tell her?
Yue Wanqing sighed and kneaded her daughter’s small hand. “Qingqing, even Mum can feel the love Shaoming has for you. That day when you entered the operating theatre, you did not see Shaoming, but that day when Shaoming heard from Doctor Zhou that you fainted when you lost your sight, you were in the operating theatre, and that child Shaoming was also in the operating theatre.
“The love spell was so painful, he never mentioned it all. He looked at you quietly every day without fail. All he could see in his eyes was you. He only had you inside his heart. He could not bear to see you lift your eyebrows up. He wanted to touch you but was afraid to do so. He obviously could not love you but still had such deep feelings for you. Mother looked at Shaoming and feels my heart ached also.
“Qingqing, you have to cherish your bliss well. Spend your days with Shaoming well. Furthermore, how can a young couple separate from one another frequently. Don’t throw a tantrum for nothing.”
After sending both sets of parents away, Auntie Yang was tidying the dining table up/ Ning Qing wanted to go forward to help her, Auntie Yang stopped her hurriedly, “Madam, both Sir and Little Young Master are in the room upstairs. You should also go upstairs to take a bath and go to bed.”
Ning Qing hung around for a moment. She bid farewell to Auntie Yang, then went upstairs.
She opened the door of the bedroom. The man was sleeping on the bed. The white shirt he was wearing had three buttons undone, and he had even rolled his sleeves up, exposing his toned and healthy biceps. He used both of his large hands to support Little Qinwen’s waist, and he allowed Little Qinwen to sit on him. She did not know what father and son were playing, and the atmosphere was merry and joyous.
Ning Qing walked inside the room. She went near, and it was only then that she saw that Little Qinwen was perched on Daddy’s body. His tiny white fingers were grazing the stubble on Daddy’s lower jaw, and he was playing delightedly.
“Dad…Daddy…” What was this? It was so pricky to the touch.
Lu Shaoming lazily half closed his eyes. He used two fingers of his to hold onto his son’s small hand as he placed it at the side of his lips as he kissed it. He let out a low and charming laugh while he said, “Little Qinwen, this is my stubble.”
“Huh?” Little Qin Wen did not understand. He tilted his head as he looked at Daddy. Why do I not have it then?
Lu Shaoming was in a good mood, he was patient as he smiled and said, “Because Daddy is a man, and you are still a small baby.”
As he spoke, the man’s line of vision landed on the woman’s exquisite little face. She was wearing a light purple dress. She had a thin belt around her waist. She was lithe and delicate, and she had a pair of white and slim legs.
It was only then that Lu Shaoming knew the benefits of marrying such a tender and supple pink doll. Even if he did not touch and only looked on, she was still so eye catching.
Lu Shaoming scanned to look at her casually. He lifted his right shoulder to place it behind his head. He lifted his eyebrows slightly and asked, “Why are you frozen there? Go and shower!”
Ning Qing felt her face go red after he looked at her. When they were alone and all by themselves, his gaze had colour.
He was both rogue and evil.
Reckless without a single care.
She went forward and stood at the side of the bed. She stretched her hands out to take Little Qinwen in her arms. “I will bring our son to take a shower.”
“There is no need for that. I will ask Aunty Yang to bathe him a while later. When he grows older, he will bathe together with me.”
Ning Qing’s small hand froze, and she looked at the man in the eye, “You really plan to raise Little Qinwen by yourself? You are busy with the company and do not have much experience…”
The woman’s voice was really gentle. When her body bent forward, a sweet fragrance came along. Lu Shaoming was immersed in both his son and woman’s soft fragrance. He lifted his eyebrows up casually. His right hand came to the side of her cheek and pinched it for a moment. His attitude was casual as he said, “There is no end to earning money, but I only have one son. You don’t have to worry about me. I can afford to provide for both of you.”
Her cheek was painful. Ning Qing pushed him away quickly, but she was unable to do so. She lifted her gaze to see Little Qinwen looking at them in a daze. Ning Qing felt her entire face burn up. Her tone was both displeased yet coy. “Lu Shaoming, let go. How can you be so irritating?”
He realized that he liked to pinch her even more and more.
And Little Qinwen was still looking at them.
Lu Shaoming’s deep, dark eyes had a glow that was able to make others faint. He lifted his body up slightly. His healthy and mesmerizingly masculine scent was invading her nostrils. ” If you dare to call me using my full name one more time, and call me irritating.”
The blood in Ning Qing’s entire body was rushing towards her head. What was he thinking of doing?
She could not even address him using his full name?
In the next second, her small body was pulled into his embrace. She was not prepared for it, and her small hand went to grab onto something frantically. She only managed to grab onto his metal belt, and it was icy cold and hard.
Her fingers unintentionally brushed onto something, and it was scalding hot.
Ning Qing withdrew her hand in shock.
But her small hand was pressed down by his large palm, he used his left shoulder to pin her soft waist. The man’s gentle thin lips came over and pressed down on her lovingly.
Ning Qing was overwhelmed and softened into his embrace instantly.
At this moment, a fragrance of milk wafted over. Little Qinwen planted himself between both of them. He worked hard to use both of his small hands to climb around. He followed Daddy’s behaviour as he tried to kiss Mama’s face.
She was kissed by the two most important men in her life at the same time. Ning Qing’s heart was overwhelmed with bliss. She used her small hand to take Little Qinwen into her arms. She turned her head sideways and allowed him to get out from her embrace. She carried her son as she buried herself deep into the man’s embrace.
Lu Shaoming felt that it was not enough to get a little benefit. He lowered his gaze again to kiss her forehead. “Can I allow all of you to bring our son up? Both grandmothers would indulge him senselessly. And listen to your incredibly coy tone in your voice — it sounds just like the voice of a little kitten. You just said the word irritating, and you are able to make me have a reaction. I am afraid that our son would be the second Jia Baoyu.”
This was the reason behind him wanting to raise his son up by himself?
What voice of a little kitten?
She was together with him. She could not help but act cute sometimes.
Ning Qing did not agree, she used her small fist to hit him for a moment. “You are 100% perfect as a Daddy? When you fell down when you were little, you only knew how to cry. Don’t mention how embarrassing it was.”
She used her hand to graze the tip of his sharp, tall nose.
Lu Shaoming held both mother and son even more firmly in his arms. With a soft laugh, he said, “My mum said that I only knew how to cry when I fell down? That is what you think. When I was little, I never fell before, so naturally, Little Qinwen does not resemble me at all.”
Was that true?
Ning Qing murmured for a few moments. She pouted her beautiful maroon lips and still did not believe him.
He was boasting.
Lu Shaoming did not argue with her. With his large hand, he caressed her soft waist that was just as slim and slender like willows. He slowly softened, and it was the first time he did not want to move. He wanted to die cloyingly in her fragrance.
Ning Qing looked at his handsome and exquisite face. She bit down on her lip and asked, “I… when I was in England to undergo the surgery, you… were accompanying me. Why did you not tell me?”
Lu Shaoming heard what she said and opened his eyes. “I didn’t accompany you when you went into the operating theatre, so there is no need to mention anything.”
Ning Qing’s eyes were moist immediately. Because he made her enter the operating theatre all alone by herself, he was unable to forgive himself.
He controlled the pain he was feeling from the effects of the love spell no matter what, and he accompanied her for an entire month. He also thought that he did not have any chance to explain what he was doing.
This man made others heart ache for him.
