Chapter 389 - Qing Qing, You Are Expecting? (1/2)
There was no trace of surprise on Lu Shaoming’s face.He held a pair of chopsticks in his right hand. The silver b.u.t.ton on his white s.h.i.+rt was sparkling under the s.h.i.+mmering light. He nodded his head lightly. “Yeah, I am serious. I will take care of him myself.”
“But…”
Everyone still hesitated, but there was a firm look on Lu Shaoming’s handsome face. They could only swallow their worry.
Ning Qing chewed a small mouthful of rice. She only dared to agree. What did he want to do exactly? Why would he want to raise Little Qinwen by himself for nothing?
Was he a baby nanny?
This word did not seem to match him at all.
Ning Qing did not dare to imagine.
Lu Shaoming used his chopsticks to pick a piece of tofu as he pa.s.sed it to the side of Little Qinwen’s lips. Little Qinwen sat obediently in the baby seat beside him. He pursed his small, light pink lips as he was unwilling to eat the tofu that Daddy pa.s.sed to him. He looked at Daddy in a daze. Daddy Daddy, do you really want to take care of me? But you do not have any experience at all.
Lu Shaoming stuffed the tofu past his tiny lips. He meant — You only have one choice, to obey!
Little Qinwen: …
Yue Wanqing laughed out loud to calm the situation at hand. “Shaoming, it is not impossible for you to bring Little Qinwen up by yourself, but you have to work, and we are bored with nothing to do at home. Why not…”
Song Yajing quickly nodded her head in agreement.
“Mum.” Lu Shaoming lifted his head up and gave both mothers a look. “Both of you would not be bored for a long period of time. You can wait to take care of your granddaughter.”
Granddaughter?
Both sets of parents all had a glow in their eyes. They were expectant yet careful as they looked at Ning Qing. “Qingqing, you are expecting?”
Ning Qing: “…”
She hated that she could not use her eyes to strangle the man beside her.
No one agreed with him raising Little Qinwen, but he was doing great. One casual line from him could direct everyone’s attention onto her.
He was evil on the inside but calm on the outside.
Evil.
“Mum, I…I am not.” Ning Qing shook her head.
The glow in both mother’s eyes dimmed immediately, but after a few seconds, their eyes lit up again, Yue Wanqing said, “It’s alright. If you do not have one right now, you will have one in the future. Qingqing, you have to nourish yourself well from today onwards. You have to work hard to give birth to one more and produce more descendants of the Lu family.”
“Haha, Ning Qing’s mother is right.” Song Yajing was smiling brightly like a flower. She took a soup spoon to give Ning Qing more soup. “Qingqing, you have more of this. Tomorrow morning, I have pre booked a nutritionist to help you nourish your body professionally. The Lu family is rich and wealthy. We can shoulder it if you give Shaoming three or five more kids. We also do not think that two or three is too few.”
Ning Qing: “…”
She could not control it in anymore. She could only kick the man’s calf harshly underneath the table.
That man did not move obediently and allowed her to kick him, but Ning Qing heard a low and charming laugh; he was laughing!
Ning Qing: Rascal!
After dinner, both set of parents bid farewell.
Ning Qing stuck with her own mother as she did not bear to let go.
Yue Wanqing noticed something was wrong, and noting that n.o.body was around, she softly asked, “Qingqing, what is wrong with you?”
Ning Qing spat her pink tongue out and was embarra.s.sed. “Mum, I want to go home with you.”
Yue Wanqing heard her words and was displeased as she said, “Qingqing, what nonsense are you spouting? In the past, Shaoming was involved in some matters, and you only came to our home because of that. Now that the matters have been settled, you and Shaoming should move back here to lead your own lives. What tantrum are you throwing right now? Shaoming’s parents treat you like their own daughter. Shaoming also pampers you…”
Ning Qing knew that her own mother would criticize her. She pouted her pink lips and unhappily said, “He didn’t pamper me. In the past, when I was in England…”
She stopped talking.
No matter what. She was still unwilling to speak ill of him in front of mother.
But she was just unable to let it go. Women all liked to compare. He was absent in the month that she needed him the most. It was probably because he did not love her enough then.
Yue Wanqing was taken aback, and questioned her instead, “Qingqing, did Shaoming not tell you?”
“What?” Ning Qing did not understand.
Tell her what.
Yue Wanqing held her daughter’s small hand. “Qingqing, when you went to England for surgery, Shaoming accompanied you for the entire month.”
Ning Qing was flabbergasted. Her expression froze as she asked, “How could it be? He…”
“Qingqing, do you still remember that medical care worker that would accompany you every day?”
She remembered.
How could she not remember.
That person would feed her everyday. He helped her wipe the corners of her lips. That medical care worker would touch her head gently, and he had given her warmth during the span of the month.
That medical care worker…
Was Lu Shaoming?
Ning Qing got a definitive answer from her own mother. She was frustrated. That bad person. Why did he not tell her?
Yue Wanqing sighed and kneaded her daughter’s small hand. “Qingqing, even Mum can feel the love Shaoming has for you. That day when you entered the operating theatre, you did not see Shaoming, but that day when Shaoming heard from Doctor Zhou that you fainted when you lost your sight, you were in the operating theatre, and that child Shaoming was also in the operating theatre.
