Dear Young Master Spare Me Please? - 216 I Know
the advice was effective indeed.
there was no argument happened.
but han meixiu’s heart was still unsettled. she was still pouting all the way home. keeping silent the entire time.
when liu zijian’s phone rang, she was still ignoring him.
“little zi, don’t fight with sister in law.” liu zilong’s voice was filled with worry. based from what he saw earlier, his sister in law was indeed furious.
although he more or less knew his brother wouldn’t do so, he still wanted to remind him.
his brother probably unaware of his sister in law’s situation thus his reminder might be necessary.
“i know. we’re not fighting.” liu zijian flatly answered.
technically speaking, they’re not really fighting but what they were having was somewhat similar to a cold war. although it was only one sided.
“that’s good then, the doctor said not to make her too emotional..”
“doctor?”
“well…”
liu zilong narrated what happened earlier and also the diagnosis of the doctor including the advice.
“i see.” liu zijian simply answered as the corner of his lips slightly curled up. his eyes also stole a glance from the young woman who’s attention was focused outside.
“…” liu zilong expected that his brother would react vibrantly. but only a boring sentence was answered to him.
he tried to listen longer as he thought he’s reaction would probably be late.
but..
“is there anything else?”
“eh? little zi, you’re not surprised?”
“about what?” liu zijian asked confusedly.
“i said sister-in law is pregnant! you see, pregnant!” liu zilong repeated and even emphasized every word.
“i know.” wasn’t that the reason he brought her to see doctor tang?
wasn’t it also the reason he joined madam bai?
he wanted to deal with the problem as soon as possible. and he didn’t want to just be a spectator. he wanted to participate to fully witness that there’s no more possible danger that would be lurking around.
besides, he didn’t want his little wife to worry too much during her time of pregnancy.
to put it more precisely, he already prepared for it. only the thing about doctor tang was the one he didn’t expect, thus he had to move swiftly.
it was a good thing his mother in law allowed him.
he smiled with the thought. he’s already accepted, right. then she would probably let them be.
“ahm you know…huh? you already know?” liu ziilong exclaimed.
“of course. if there’s nothing more, i’ll be hanging up.”
liu zilong looked at his phone for a time after the call ended. it took him few extra seconds before his brother words finally sunk in.
little zi knew??
then it meant…
liu zilong chuckled.
right, he must have been planned it beautifully.
oh well, this wasn’t maybe the time he would witness his brother’s surprised reaction.
the first young master liu even wondered how far his brother ‘prepared’ for this pregnancy of han meixiu.

lunch was festively served but the two people was quiet while eating.
the nutritious dishes thoroughly prepared by aunt jing were definitely appealing but han meixiu was eating very little.
“meixiu….” liu zijian worriedly called out her name.
han meixiu glared at him. she wasn’t really angry. it was just all her prepared speech were instantly shut off before she could even say a word.
liu zijian already apologized and admitted his mistake.
what could she do more?
what about her resentment and grievances? to whom could she vent them out?
although her worries were automatically washed out the moment she found out he’s perfectly fine, what about the residuals feeling?
“i’m fine.” she answered without looking at him. she couldn’t really just nag at him without reason, right?
liu zijian sighed but didn’t continue to provoke her.
his accumulated experience until might still not be enough to pacify and fully understand his wife.
for now, it would be better to return to basics.
let her cool off on her own and wait for another chance to strike.
patience is a virtue.

back in the study, han meixiu’s feeling was more or less already calmed down but liu zijian was still cautious.
the two were clearly observing each other.
unfortunately, the first one to run out of patience would always be han meixiu, thus she spoke first.
“jian…” her sweet voice didn’t sound fierce like before. it already mellowed down but there was still a little frustrated tone embedded inside.
han meixiu remained quiet afterwards.
“hmm?” liu zijian simply answered while stealing glances at the young woman who was lazily sitting on the sofa hugging a cushion. she wasn’t looking at him as her gaze was fixed on that ornament on top of the coffee table.
she didn’t know how would she start asking. since that was the case, she decided to change her sentence.
“don’t make me worry too much.”
liu zijian wanted to shout but contained his emotion.
‘finally!’
it meant he’s forgiven. she started the conversation and her tone wasn’t the same as earlier.
he cleared his throat as he got up and slowly sat beside her.
“i’m sorry. i’ll…”
“stop. just tell me what happened. i want some fine details, too.”
liu zijian smiled and complied obediently. his little wife wanted to be pampered. with that tone of voice, he couldn’t really say no.
after he finished telling her what happened, han meixiu excitedly asked him.
“doctor tang is really safe?”
“en.”
“so that woman named red is really related to her?”
“probably.”
“it would be really good if that’s the case.” han meixiu commented. she personally saw how the doctor wept and felt the pain she was feeling. it might not be exactly the same but her heart actually ached that time.
han meixiu remembered the reason of their visit and she quieted down again.
“i’m pregnant.” she softly said.
“you already know, right?” han meixiu continued.
“en. more or less, i do.” liu zijian answered as he kissed the top of her head.
“we can set another appointment with doctor tang or we can choose another doctor. you need to be examined properly.” he continued as he gently stroke her hair.
“i don’t want another doctor, doctor tang is good.”
“if you say so.”
“i’m really pregnant…”
“yes, you are…”
“i’ll be a mother…”

“mmm.”
“you’ll be a father…”
“that’s right…”
“jian…i’m happy..”
“so am i.” he answered while smiling softly as he lowered his gaze. it was a smile like a spring breeze, gentle and warm.
han meixiu snuggled towards liu zijian as she buried her face on his chest. her emotions were bustling with unexplainable happiness.
“we’re going to be parents.” liu zijian whispered as he hugged her tighter.
liu zijian closed his eyes and simply enjoyed the warmth and fuzzy feelings swirling inside his heart.
even he expected about this kind of result, it was still different hearing her saying those words. it was as if there’s a completion of his being.
with the serenity of the surrounding the young couple finally basked in the silent happiness of the news.
it was like a beam of warm light that directly nourished not just their hearts but also their souls.
little specks of light seemingly danced around the room scattering lovely colors as if they were accompanying the joyful celebration of han meixiu’s pregnancy.
‘parents, we’ll be parents soon.’ han meixiu smilingly thought as she listened to the excited heartbeat of her husband.
“let’s have a celebration.” liu zijian muttered and lifted her face to give her a warm tender kiss.
