Chapter 1109: Shen Liangchuan, I’m Pregnant (5)
Those words were like a lightning bolt. Shen Liangchuan was shaken to the core at once.
He halted and looked at Qiao Lian with a confused expression. He said after a pause, “What- what did you say?”
Seeing his shocked expression, Qiao Lian bit her lip and took a deep breath before repeating, “I said I’m pregnant! You didn’t hear wrong.”
Looking more confused than ever, he frowned. The first thing he did was look down reflexively at her abdomen.
Then he asked, “How many months?”
His expression was gloomy like storm clouds—his tone, frighteningly calm.
His lack of reaction made it look as though he was asking something as casual as “have you had breakfast?” Qiao Lian was a little disappointed.
She lowered her head and said slowly, “Two months.”
Immediately, Shen Liangchuan grunted in acknowledgment. Gently holding her arm at once, he said, “Let me help you, would you like to sit for a bit?”
Qiao Lian nodded, followed him to the sofa and took a seat.
She saw that Shen Liangchuan was still standing there and staring fixedly at her abdomen. “Is this child a boy or a girl?”
Qiao Lian replied, “It’s just two months old. You can’t tell.”
Shen Liangchuan grunted in acknowledgment and asked further, “And are you feeling alright? Do you want to drink some sweetened water?”
She replied, “I’m just pregnant, it’s not that I’m having my period. Why would I need to drink sweetened water?”
“Oh! Right!” Shen Liangchuan nodded. “Then you should have… chicken soup. I’ll get someone to make you chicken soup right now!”
Having said this, he walked out of the door.
Thump!
He had thrown the door open but hadn’t moved out of the way, so the door had hit him in the head when returning.
He reached out to massage his head a little, without the slightest trace of embarrassment. He walked out again and said, “I just remembered there’s no chicken at home. I’ll go get one then… Oh, right, as well as carp and tofu soup.”
Qiao Lian was flabbergasted.
She noticed, to her amusement, that Shen Liangchuan seemed to have lost all his logic and looked like a clueless small child. She giggled uncontrollably.
The truth was that he was actually excited.
It was only because he had a rather cold personality and suppressed his emotions, that it was hard to tell from his facial expression. But through his actions…
She wasn’t even breastfeeding, yet he was talking about getting chicken soup, carp and tofu soup. It looked like he was quite overjoyed.
Qiao Lian got to her feet and peered down at him from the second floor.
She couldn’t hear what he was saying, but now he was busily making his way up again.
He seemed to be in a daze still as he stood outside the door and said, looking at her, “Old Auntie Zhang said there’s no need to drink any soup at the moment, you just need to take good care of yourself. You shouldn’t try to take too many vitamins in the first few months.”
Qiao Lian’s lips turned upwards into a smile. She tilted her head and looked at the big child before her. She asked, “And then what?”
“So what do you feel like eating? Are you feeling nauseous? Tell me what you feel like eating and I’ll go and get it for you right away.”
At these words, Qiao Lian had already taken a step towards him and gripped his arm, saying, “I’m not craving any food at the moment, so hurry up and get in here!”
Her movement somehow made Shen Liangchuan jump.
He suddenly held her arm and said, “You- you should move slowly. Come, let me help you sit on the bed.”
Qiao Lian was both speechless and amused.
She understood how he was feeling, hence she followed his lead as he carefully helped her onto the bed.
