Chapter 423 - 416: Strength
Wang Hai knew that Bai Yiran must be present when he heard Leng Yichen say this, so he hung up the phone immediately.
"What happened?" Bai Yiran looked at Leng Yichen and asked.
"It’s nothing." Leng Yichen smiled and wiped the soup stains off Bai Yiran’s mouth with a napkin.
"Don’t lie to me." Bai Yiran glared at him, "Every time you’re upset, you do this!"
Saying so, Bai Yiran imitated knocking on the table with her fingers.
Leng Yichen was stunned, looking at his own hand still placed on the table. He casually raised his hand and pinched Bai Yiran’s face.
"It really seems like you love me a lot, noticing even these little details."
To be honest, Leng Yichen hadn’t even realized he had this little habit; it was probably subconscious, so he hadn’t noticed at all. But Bai Yiran had noticed it and remembered.
It seems that he has to be careful in front of her in the future. At least, he shouldn’t repeat this action, or she’d get suspicious.
"Nonsense!" Bai Yiran knocked Leng Yichen’s hand away.
"Really, it’s nothing." Leng Yichen’s voice was calm and steady, "It’s just, I was asking Wang Hai to find a better nutritionist for me, who will be responsible for your daily diet. It’s just that reliable nutritionists are hard to find, so I was a bit annoyed."
"Why find a nutritionist? I’m not made of mud, and besides, we have Sister Liu at home, don’t we?" Bai Yiran rolled her eyes at Leng Yichen.
"That’s different. You’re two people now." Leng Yichen held Bai Yiran’s hand, "You are now the number one protected person in the house."
Bai Yiran was a bit embarrassed, feeling like a giant panda.
Leng Yichen didn’t continue the topic. Fortunately, the waiter soon brought other dishes, successfully changing the subject.
Bai Yiran lowered her head, cutting her steak, her eyes shimmering. She knew something must have happened, and Leng Yichen didn’t want her to know. Lately, his behavior had been somewhat strange, and she could feel it.
"Leng Yichen." Bai Yiran lowered her head, cutting the steak, without looking up.
"Hmm? What’s wrong?" Leng Yichen asked, seeing her looking down.
"Promise me, if anything happens, you must tell me, don’t bear it alone." Bai Yiran put down her knife and fork and raised her head, her eyes shimmering as she looked at her man, "I’m stronger than you think."
Leng Yichen was stunned; his gaze at Bai Yiran became somewhat complicated, but he eventually smiled, "Alright, I got it."
The meal ended with Bai Yiran constantly vomiting. She thought drinking two bowls of soup would allow her to eat other things. But as soon as the steak was put into her mouth, without even chewing it a few times, a wave of nausea overwhelmed her, making her extremely uncomfortable.
Leng Yichen saw it all, feeling excruciating pain in his heart. Immediately he called the previous doctor, asking if there was an effective way to stop morning sickness.
The doctor’s reply was that morning sickness is a normal occurrence, varying with each pregnant woman, with different durations. No particularly good advice was given; the best method was to endure it.
Leng Yichen sent Bai Yiran home, and not long after, she fell asleep. It seemed that every time she vomited, it drained her energy, with a response far more intense than her first pregnancy. Leng Yichen gently kissed Bai Yiran’s sleeping face and instructed Sister Liu to take good care of her before leaving.
In the car, Leng Yichen dialed Wang Hai’s number once more, "Wang Hai, I want to meet Gao Sheng."
