Chapter 812: Chapter 812: You Said You Would Take Care of Me
Huo Yanzhao was bewildered: “How could…”
“It was before my surgery.” He Jingyao pulled Zhixi into his arms, speaking calmly, “Just one try, couldn’t help it.”
Zhixi’s face turned crimson instantly.
Huo Yanzhao looked at his seemingly calm but actually boastful tone, his teeth itching with anger.
Huo Yanzhao turned his gaze to Xiaobao, who was absorbed in his own world of stories, and suddenly spoke up: “My daughter is still the oldest.”
“Only two months older than Xiaobao.”
“Two months is still older. Whether it’s your son or daughter, they’ll have to call Tang Yuan ‘big sister.'” Huo Yanzhao finally regained his ground.
He Jingyao snorted coldly: “You should first get your wife to agree to be with you.”
Huo Yanzhao was once again poked at his sore spot, his face gloomy.
…
Huo Yanzhao was probably too irritated by He Jingyao, so he didn’t stay long and left.
Zhixi pulled on He Jingyao’s sleeve: “Jingyao, shouldn’t we be staying in recently?”
He raised an eyebrow: “Who said that?”
“You see, we don’t have money to hire bodyguards now.” Zhixi pursed her lips, “It’s really unsafe to go out at such a crucial time, right?”
He Jingyao saw her worried expression and couldn’t help but laugh: “The bodyguards, like Uncle Li, are paid every three years. They can serve us for at least another six months, so don’t be afraid, if you want to go out, you can at any time.”
“Then… can I go see Sister Xuefei?” Zhixi said expectantly.
He Jingyao’s gaze turned somewhat deep.
Zhixi instinctively reached out, wrapped her arms around his neck, leaned in to kiss his lukewarm thin lips, her voice tinged with a bit of a coquettish tone: “Jingyao…”
The man suddenly felt a tightening sensation in his body, pulling her tightly into his arms: “Trying to get me to tease you again, huh?”
Zhixi blushed and avoided his somewhat scorching breath: “Just agree with me…”
He Jingyao’s Adam’s apple moved twice, struggling to suppress the restless urge in his heart.
“Wait until the three months have passed, and see how I’ll deal with you…” He whispered against her earlobe.
This woman, taking advantage that he couldn’t do anything to her, was getting bolder.
“Why three months?” Zhixi’s eyes widened.
“I especially consulted the doctor; three months later, we can be together.” He chuckled softly, “Are you looking forward to it?”
“…” Zhixi’s face was flushed red.
She’d always thought she could tease him until after the baby was born.
“But… but what if…”
“If the baby can’t even withstand that little shake, what right does it have to be a child of mine, He Jingyao?” He laughed coldly, seeming to harbor a huge grudge against this child, “Regardless of being boy or girl!”
Shake… shake… shake…
Zhixi’s mind looped the word, her cheeks impossibly hot.
“Heh…” Evilly tilting her chin up, he whispered teasingly in her ear, “Seems like you really are looking forward to it.”
“I’m not!” Zhixi pushed him away forcefully, “I’m not talking to you anymore… I need to check the accounts! We’ve overspent the past couple of days…”
He Jingyao chuckled softly, instead pulling her tightly again: “What, out of money?”
Her face showed worry: “Yes, I calculated, at our current spending, my savings won’t last the year…”
“But you said you’d support me.” He Jingyao pinched her cheek, looking very serious, “I’m really looking forward to it.”
