Chapter 842 - Scared (II) (1/2)
Crossing her arms in the front, Ming scrunched her brows, ”Li Zian, are you trying to hide something from me?”
”What? Me? No mom, why would I hide anything from you?” Letting out a nervous chuckle, Zian vigorously shook his head, ”I don't have anything to lie about.”
”Are you sure?” When he nodded his head, she snapped, ”If I find out that you are lying then you are dead.”
Gulping in nervousness, Zian gave her a weak smile, ”Okay mom now can you please make something plain for Qiang while I go check on sister-in-law and also congratulate her?”
”What? You haven't congratulated them yet? What the hell is wrong with you Zian?” Ming snapped.
”I got super busy and then—”
Cutting him off, she fumed, ”No work is bigger than family, you should have been the first ones to congratulate them. Now get your ass moving, I want you to go straight to Ben and Clara's room.”
Without wasting anymore time, Zian rushed out of the kitchen to save his ass from his mother's wrath.
….
Ben and Clara's room.
When Zian entered the room, Ben was nowhere to be seen and Clara was busy folding some clothes.
”Come sit Zian, I heard what happened to Guang—I wanted to go to the hospital but aunt Ming and B3n asked me not to.”
”It's okay sister Clara, Guang's condition is stable now and you also need to take a rest.” Keeping quiet for quite some time, he added, ”I couldn't congratulate you and brother Ben in the morning. I am really very happy for you both and really excited for my first niece or nephew.”
”Thank you so much, the baby is already getting so much love, it is really very lucky,” she smiled.
Looking around, he inquired, ”Brother Ben is not here?”
”He had something important to do in the office, Nuan wanted him there but he was really very reluctant to leave so I had to force him to go,” she chuckled.
”What did aunt Anna say? Is everything okay?”
Clara nodded her head and answered, ”Yeah, everything is normal. I just need to take some vitamins and I also have a list of things I am not supposed to eat.”
”There are things pregnant women are not supposed to eat?” When she nodded her head, Zian curiously inquired, ”What are they?”
”Hold on, let me show you the list.” Walking towards the drawer, Clara took a piece of paper and gave it to him. ”Here these are the things I need to avoid.”
Going through the list, Zian frowned. ”Sushi, that is her favourite,” he muttered.
”Did you say something? Sorry, I did not hear you,” she inquired.
Vigorously shaking his head, he answered, ”Nothing, I will just take a picture of this—”
”Picture? Why? Is Mian—”
”Oh no, I am just taking a picture for reference, future reference,” he answered.
Clara smiled and answered, ”Well, Mian is a doctor so I don't think you need any kind of reference, I am sure she is already familiar with all of this.”
”Yes of course.” Letting out a nervous chuckle, he gave the list back to her. ”What was I even thinking? Anyway, I'll get going now, you should take some rest and if you need anything, just give me a call.”
