Chapter 351 Can we get married tomorrow? (1/2)
Just as Elliot Gong came to that conclusion, Ethan Lu approached their table with a plate full of a variety of dishes for his future wife. Since everyone's attention was on Elliot Gong, no one notice his approach.
The moment Elliot Gong announced his sneaky intention, his brows could not help but twitch. Surely, his friend knew him very well and actually hit the point. Alas, no matter how precise Elliot Gong's conclusion was, Ethan Lu would never admit it!
”Love, don't listen to him. He's just jealous that he's not as romantic as me.” Leaning down from Lexi's behind, Ethan Lu whispered to her ear which snapped Lexi from her confusion to what Elliot Gong just said.
”Hey, I invited you with a pure intention. Please refrain from overthinking.” Pretending that he was entirely innocent, Ethan Lu shook his head as he sat on the chair next to Lexi. He then placed the plate beside Lexi's plate and lovingly smiled at her without a care in the world.
”Love love, you should eat more so baby is healthy, hehe!” Like an excited kitten, Ethan Lu's eyes gleamed and were narrowed in a thin line due to his grinning face.
Until now, he was still in shock about Lexi's pregnancy. But nothing beats his excitement, he was too giddy to see and share the journey of Lexi's pregnancy and their life when the baby was born. Hence, the grin on his face was priceless and nothing seemed to take that away from him.
Also, Ethan Lu overheard his remarks about Elliot Gong's reasonable conclusion, a light giggle escaped their mouths excluding Elliot Gong who peered at Ethan Lu with disgust.
”You won't win against him— he's shameless enough to deny it.” Whispering, Rika Song humored as she believed Elliot Gong's deductions. Also, since it wasn't important to them as they get to witness this eventful night, they might as well enjoy the rest of the night.
Although deep down in Ethan Lu's heart, he was afraid to get rejected, at the very least, he didn't invite just anyone. He selected only those people that were close to Lexi and the people he trusted. Hence, it was no big deal.
”Baby, try this one!” On the other hand, as he ignored the world that continued to rotate, Ethan Lu took a piece of dessert and was about to feed Lexi. However, just as Lexi got a whiff of the food, she instantly drew back while covering her nose as if she smelled poison.
”Eew! Get that away from me! It smells rotten!” Still covering her nose, Lexi complained as she altered her dismayed gaze from the spoon and to Ethan Lu's confused front.
”Ah??” Tilting his head to the side, the oblivious Ethan Lu had zero clues on what pregnancy could do to a woman. ”But, it's delicious.” He lowly added as if a child that was unjustly being wronged.
”Dear, that's normal for a pregnant woman. Sometimes, we don't like a certain food or scent and sometimes, we crave something odd.” Lillian Yang giggled as she explained to her confused son-in-law.
”Oh...!” Nodding in understanding, Ethan Lu instantly put the desert away from Lexi and even gestured one of the nearest waiters that was serving them tonight to get the dessert away from Lexi's sight.
