Falling in Love with My Contracted Husband - Chapter 189
Chapter 189 To Singapore
After walking out of the nursery, Lin Qiyuan circled around the mall a few more times, and then bought some things that he thought An Zixi would need. He waited until he could not take them down.
Lin Qiyuan sat in the coffee shop. The floor was filled with shopping. There were children’s clothes and toys, as well as things that adults needed. He didn’t know if it would be good or not. He had bought almost everything that the shop assistant recommended that was good for pregnant women.
The coffee cup was steaming hot. Lin Qiyuan picked it up and drank two mouthfuls of coffee before taking out his phone. This time, he did not hesitate at all. He directly dialed An Zixi’s number.
Lin Qiyuan was a little nervous, but he didn’t want An Zixi to know that he was already in Singapore.
The moment the call was connected, Lin Qiyuan called out, “Zixi.”
“Xiao Qi?” An Zixi’s somewhat hazy voice came.
Lin Qiyuan listened to her lazy voice and asked, “Are you asleep? Did you wake up?”
After confirming that it was Lin Qiyuan, An Zixi smiled and replied, “No, I’m at work. Why did you call me at this time?”
“Nothing much. I just wanted to ask you how you are.” Lin Qiyuan said, his lips still curled into a faint smile.
“I’m really good.” An Zixi’s voice was also very light, which meant that she had indeed lived a very relaxed life these past few days.
“Oh right, Zixi, where is your address now?” Lin Qiyuan pretended to ask inadvertently.
“Uh, what’s wrong?” An Zixi asked.
“Nothing much. I went out recently. I want to send you a postcard so that you can see the scenery outside.” Lin Qiyuan said. Although he was lying, he didn’t feel that it was inappropriate. If An Zixi saw him accidentally, he wouldn’t blame him for lying to her.
An Zixi said a list of addresses, and then Lin Qiyuan memorized them. Then, he excused himself that he was hanging up a little bit beforehand.
Of course, An Zixi would not doubt Lin Qiyuan’s intention to call for an address. After all, they were already so close.
Lin Qiyuan rushed to where An Zixi was. He checked his surroundings. It was indeed as An Zixi had said before. The environment was quiet and comfortable.
Lin Qiyuan walked to the door and placed everything in his hand on the ground. He didn’t know if An Zixi had returned home. He turned around in front of the door and saw An Zixi when he turned around. An Zixi also saw him, but Lin Qiyuan suddenly appeared in front of her house with so many things. An Zixi was really shocked by his sudden appearance.
“Xiao Qi?” An Zixi asked uncertainly.
Lin Qiyuan had a bright smile on his face. He looked at An Zixi who was dressed in formal clothes and said, “Yes.”
An Zixi quickened her pace and arrived in front of him. For a moment, she didn’t know what to say. She was silent for a long time before asking, “Why are you here?”
“Passing by here, I’ll drop by to see you.” Lin Qiyuan replied. Naturally, he would not tell An Zixi that he had come specifically to see her. He was afraid that An Zixi would feel guilty about his arrival. He did not know what to do. He had always wanted to give An Zixi a relaxed life.
An Zixi suddenly remembered the phone call in the afternoon. He smiled and said, “You came to me this afternoon.”
“Yes, you can tell.” Lin Qiyuan echoed.
Lin Qiyuan opened his arms. An Zixi looked at him and gently hugged him. It was not easy to meet an acquaintance in a foreign country, not to mention that this person was a good friend she had known since childhood. She was very happy that he could visit her.
“Zixi, are you well?” Lin Qiyuan asked. The moment he saw An Zixi, he couldn’t suppress the joy in his heart. He looked at her face. Although it wasn’t as energetic as before, it was still red. This proved that she was doing well here. However, the reason why he asked this question was because he wanted to hear it from her personally when he saw her now.
“I’m fine.” An Zixi replied.
“Aren’t you inviting me in?” Lin Qiyuan said, then used his gaze to signal An Zixi.
An Zixi made an invitation gesture with his hand and purposely said with a stern face, “Of course I want to invite you in for a seat!”
After entering, Lin Qiyuan put everything down. An Zixi looked at it and frowned, “Why did you buy so many things?”
Lin Qiyuan was afraid that she would be unhappy, so he deliberately said, “Isn’t that because he was afraid that you wouldn’t welcome me, so he brought some things to bribe you?”
Hearing Lin Qiyuan’s words, An Zixi sneered. Being with Lin Qiyuan always made her feel so relaxed.
Lin Qiyuan looked at An Zixi’s accommodation. Although it wasn’t a very big house, it looked very comfortable and warm.
Seeing Lin Qiyuan’s gaze, An Zixi seemed to know what he was thinking. Before Lin Qiyuan could say anything, An Zixi said, “This place is very comfortable, and I’m used to living here.”
Lin Qiyuan nodded, as long as An Zixi lived happily.
An Zixi poured a cup of tea and handed it to Lin Qiyuan. Then, he sat down and asked, “Are you going to stay here for a few days?”
“Well, it depends. If there’s anything fun, I’ll stay a few more days.” Lin Qiyuan took the tea and said, “You must treat me well these few days.”
“Naturally.” An Zixi patted his chest and assured him, “Once you arrive at my territory, I’ll give you food and shelter.”
Seeing An Zixi smiling so happily, Lin Qiyuan was relieved. Before coming here, he didn’t know how his life would be. Although An Zixi had always stressed on the phone that he was doing well, if he didn’t really come, he couldn’t be sure if what An Zixi said was true.
“Zixi, didn’t you say that you have a friend here? Why haven’t you seen him?” Lin Qiyuan asked. Previously, An Zixi said that he had met an acquaintance here in Singapore and was taking good care of her.
An Zixi knew that Lin Qiyuan had always cared about her, so she had always asked and answered Lin Qiyuan’s questions. “Very soon, he will come and eat with us. When that time comes, you will be able to see him. He is also a very good person like you.”
“Alright, alright.” Lin Qiyuan nodded. After that, they talked about their recent life.
At dinner time, Su He came over. An Zixi introduced them to each other, and they chatted happily with each other. Lin Qiyuan had always been very grateful to Su He. In his opinion, An Zixi was alone in distant Singapore thanks to Su He’s care, and Su He liked Lin Qiyuan’s polite and graceful appearance.
As night fell, stars flickered in the sky. Lin Qiyuan stood on the balcony and looked up at the sky. At this moment, he was standing closest to An Zixi, breathing the same air and admiring the same night sky. In his opinion, it was the happiest time.
An Zixi walked over and instructed Lin Qiyuan, “Xiao Qi, go to bed early. We still have to go out to play tomorrow.”
Lin Qiyuan turned his head to look at An Zixi. The light shone on her clean little face with a different light. The corner of her eyes had a smile. It was the same as before, but it seemed to be different from before. The soft light was probably because she was about to become a mother, so it made her look so different.
“Alright, I understand.” Lin Qiyuan looked at An Zixi’s stomach again. Her lower abdomen had already bulged slightly. She had been pregnant for some time. Perhaps it was because she was too thin, but her stomach did not look so obvious.
“Child, are you still obedient?” Lin Qiyuan asked.
An Zixi touched his stomach with his hand, and then his eyes were filled with affection. “He’s very obedient.”
“That’s good.” Lin Qiyuan said, his heart tightening. For some reason, it was as if a lost heart couldn’t find a landing point.
“Ah!” An Zixi suddenly shouted.
When Lin Qiyuan heard this, he immediately walked over and helped her ask, “What’s wrong, Zixi?”
Lin Qiyuan’s expression was very serious, as if he was afraid of what would happen to An Zixi. After all, he cared so much about An Zixi’s safety.
An Zixi smiled and shook his head, “It’s fine, it’s just that the child kicked me.”
Lin Qiyuan was puzzled, “Is it really alright?”
“Really.” An Zixi said with certainty. This was not the first time the child had kicked her, and she had also read books. The books said that the child’s activities in her mother’s stomach were very normal, which meant that the child was very healthy. “Xiao Qi, do you want to touch the child?” An Zixi asked when he saw Lin Qiyuan’s expression.
“Is that okay?” Lin Qiyuan asked uncertainly. In fact, he still had a little hope in his heart.
“Mm, you try.” An Zixi pointed at her stomach and encouraged him.
Lin Qiyuan carefully placed his hand on An Zixi’s stomach. Sure enough, he felt waves of movements. Although they weren’t very big, they still made him feel strange.
“He’s really moving.” Lin Qiyuan said happily. It turned out that a small life was so peculiar. The feeling of being close to it made him feel very subtle. This child also made him feel happy.
The baby in An Zixi’s stomach moved slightly and then stopped moving. Lin Qiyuan asked, “Does he not like me? Why is he not moving?”
An Zixi smiled and did not answer Lin Qiyuan’s question. Instead, he said to his stomach, “Baby, your Uncle Lin has come to see you. I brought you a lot of fun today. Do you like him?”
Just as An Zixi finished speaking, the baby in his stomach moved. Lin Qiyuan was even happier, “Can he understand?”
An Zixi nodded, “That’s right, he said he likes Uncle Lin very much.”
Lin Qiyuan looked at An Zixi’s happy expression and felt happy for her. No matter what, this little life had indeed brought hope to An Zixi.
“Zixi, are you happy?” Lin Qiyuan looked at An Zixi and asked.
‘”Ah,” An Zixi was talking to the baby when he suddenly heard Lin Qiyuan’s question.
Lin Qiyuan said, “Is this child yours?”
An Zixi nodded noncommittally. “Yes, if he hadn’t come, I wouldn’t have known how I would have gotten over that period of time. I had hoped that this wasn’t true, but after this little life came, I realized that this feeling of bloodline connection was really good. I’m no longer alone.”
You were never alone. Lin Qiyuan said silently in his heart. His gaze was very affectionate, but An Zixi, who was immersed in joy, did not discover it.
Lin Qiyuan said, “The most important thing for you right now is the child. Hurry up and go back to rest!”
An Zixi turned around and returned to his room, while Lin Qiyuan only looked at An Zixi’s back.
