341 Reunion 36 (1/2)
However, such a lifestyle was not what Jin Qingyan wanted.
He began to feel like he was playing the role of her father instead of her lover.
Gazing at that innocent face of hers, he would become soft-hearted and give into every single request of hers.
Even if it was something he did not excel at.
On this cold and lonely night, Jin Qingyan found it hard to fall asleep.

In the brightness of early morning, Mei Yangyang and Long Tianze made their way to the hospital by car for a prenatal checkup.
In the past, Mei Yangyang used to go alone in order to avoid getting exposed. However, Long Tianze insisted on accompanying her this time.
Needless to say, they were recognized and photographed by the public, though Long Tianze was no longer bothered about that.
After conducting the ultrasound scan, the doctor said smilingly, ”The fetus is very healthy. Congratulations, Mr. Long.”
”That's great. Is it a girl or a boy?” Long Tianze asked.
”By right, we're not supposed to reveal the gender of the child, but I'll make an exception for you.”
Ah, so that's the difference in treatment, Mei Yangyang thought to herself.
”It's a boy.”
Mei Yangyang broke into smiles upon hearing the doctor's answer. ”Really?” she asked excitedly.
”Yes.”
”A boy?” asked a dismayed Long Tianze.
”Yes,” the doctor repeated himself.
It was written all over Long Tianze's face that he detested boys!
Mei Yangyang was overjoyed for she had been hoping for the child to be a boy. Male heirs were necessary and favored in wealthy families like Long Tianze's. Once it's confirmed that it was a boy she was carrying, she would no longer have to be afraid of Long Tianze's parents' disapproval. She could then tell them with much gusto: ”I'm carrying your grandson in my womb! Are you still refusing to accept me?”
Besides, there were no sons in her family. Tongues would definitely wag if her firstborn was a girl.
The gender reveal had put an end to her woes.
Mei Yangyang began humming merrily on the way back.
”Are you really that happy?”
”Yes, and I'd like to ask you, why were you so upset to find out that it was a boy?”
”I was hoping for a daughter. I like girls.”
”It doesn't matter. Our firstborn may be a son, but if you want a daughter, I'll bear you another child.”
”What if it's a boy again?” Long Tianze asked.
”Then we'll go on to have a third child. I like children.”
Long Tianze was momentarily speechless at her answer. ”Although I like children too, I don't wish to make you become a baby-making machine. Regardless of the baby's gender, let's just stop at two. We won't have our own space if we have too many children,” said Long Tianze.
Mei Yangyang grinned at him and answered, ”You call the shots, Hubby. Let's go back to your place.”
Long Tianze was surprised to hear that she asked to go back to the old mansion. Was she more confident now that she was expecting a son?
”Sure,” he agreed joyously.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
Soon, they arrived at the Long family home.
Mr. and Mrs. Long were still kept in the dark about their son's marriage.
Mr. Long was sipping on some tea and reading newspapers on the couch while Mrs. Long was seated opposite him and scrolling through her social media account.
