Chapter 586: – Pregnancy was so annoying~
Pregnancy was a very annoying thing. At least, Lin Jin didn’t feel any benefits from it at all. She only felt that Xia Tian and her mom’s meticulous care gave her a massive headache.
It was impossible to not get a headache, okay? Originally, she could still go out and wander around every day with Xia Tian. But a month after her mom came, she restricted Lin Jin from leaving the house under the reasoning that she was already two months along.
As mentioned before, Lin Jin was an unqualified shut in. Even if she could stay home and play on the computer all day, she still needed to go out for some fresh air every day to feel comfortable. Otherwise, she would start feeling stuffy and short of breath.
“So that’s to say, I completely can’t stand staying home every day without going out! Mom!”
Lin Jin tried her best to save her fresh air time.
Even though she was only pregnant, she already had the illusion of being in prison, okay?
Besides, it was said that giving birth could easily ruin your figure and make you gain weight. If she stayed home every day, she would become a fatty sooner or later, okay?
Xia Tian, who had been living with Lin Jin for several years, of course knew her habits, so he was also trying to persuade Lin Jin’s mom.
“Really, if Lin Jin doesn’t go out, she’ll feel really uncomfortable. If she doesn’t go wander around for at least half an hour each day, she gets really uncomfortable!”
“Lin Jin, didn’t you used to complain to me that Xia Tian made you go out and walk for an hour every day? When I don’t let you go out, you’re not happy either…”
“That’s because… him making me go out for a walk is completely just to get me out of the way. Every day, he has to check the accounts at the restaurant, he’s also busy with the new location. When I go out for a walk, he’s never with me.”
Lin Jin rolled her eyes at Xia Tian, who was standing next to her with an awkward smile.
Xia Tian was very good to Lin Jin, there wasn’t any doubt about it. But some things he did were really too questionable, making Lin Jin want to knock him on the head.
He was clearly already the boss of dozens of employees and had been working in society for many years. Yet sometimes, his thought process was as childish as a little kid’s.
This occasionally gave Lin Jin a sense of insecurity, but every time she did, Xia Tian would suddenly step up and take care of everything.
For instance, that time when she got targeted online a few years ago. Even though Xia Tian didn’t manage to track down the person responsible at the end, him showing up right when Lin Jin felt lost made her feel secure.
“Fine, fine. From now on, aside from helping you with housework and educating your child, I won’t care about anything else, okay.” Lin Jin’s mom helplessly crossed one leg over the other. Even though she was already approaching fifty years old, she still exuded a lot of charm when doing this action.
“Lin Jin, you too. Getting pregnant so early, don’t even know to take some precautions. Now look, before you still could have broken up with Xia Tian whenever, at most it’s just returning the engagement gifts…”
“Hey! Hey!” Xia Tian suddenly realized something wasn’t right with Lin Jin’s mom’s words “Mom! Why would you think that, what’s wrong with me?”
“Anyway, that way Lin Jin could’ve at least had more time to decide whether she really wanted to spend the rest of her life with you.” Mom glanced at him and said with a smile “Now, great. Lin Jin’s stuck with you for life.”
She had already been stuck with Xia Tian for life.
Lin Jin silently thought.
Ever since Xia Tian said he didn’t mind her having done surgery, didn’t mind her not being able to have children, and would work hard for their future, Lin Jin had already been bound to him.
She smiled and leaned against Xia Tian, giving her mom a look.
Her mom very understandingly left the bedroom, lazily stretched and said along the way: “I’ll go make you some chicken soup.”
Once Lin Jin saw her mom leave, she laid down in Xia Tian’s arms.
“Hey, when are we getting married?”
“How about we wait until your birthday to get married? By then, you should be… seven months pregnant.”
“Well, getting married with a big belly feels weird. It’s better to do it sooner, or else we’ll get laughed at by our classmates during the wedding.”
“I think let’s wait for next month? Find a good day to get married next month.” Xia Tian gently placed his hand on Lin Jin’s belly and said with a smile “By next month, your belly also shouldn’t be too big. At that time, I’ll also have finished with the new location’s, just in time to hold the wedding at the new location.”
“Where’s the new restaurant?”
“It’s in Siming District. Driving there takes more than half an hour.” Xia Tian yawned, took a look at the time, and realized it seemed to be getting late.
“It’s time to sleep. It’s eleven.”
“My mom said she was going to make me chicken soup…”
Xia Tian shrugged helplessly. It was already so late, but Lin Jin’s mom was still going to cook soup. By the time Lin Jin finished drinking it, it would probably be one in the morning.
Pregnant women shouldn’t stay up too late, right?
Xia Tian rubbed Lin Jin’s head in resignation and suggested: “Then let’s stream for a while?”
“Sure, play some two player games or something.”
They stood up together. Although Lin Jin was only two months pregnant, Xia Tian treated it as if they were facing some big danger, worried that Lin Jin would accidentally trip on the steps in their house.
So, he was too overboard with his care!
Lin Jin sighed, reluctantly accepting Xia Tian’s help.
She felt like she was already in her seventies or eighties and couldn’t walk on her own anymore.
Arriving at the streaming room, Lin Jin yawned and settled on the small sofa next to Xia Tian. Xia Tian then started the live stream and prepared to try a domestically created game.
Although their live stream wasn’t very famous, with concurrent viewership hovering around ten thousand or so, a domestic game developer had surprisingly found them and wanted them to try their game live.
Since there was money to be earned, Lin Jin accepted without hesitation.
And the main reason was that the game looked quite interesting. Even though it was just the beta version, it was already full of surprises.
It was a card based game without online multiplayer. It was a bit like Slay the Spire from a few years ago, but was more random and the graphics were 3D.
After each small stage, you could choose three cards, most of which were various skill cards, and each mini stage was a random event…
Card skills had usage limits according to their rarity, but that didn’t necessarily mean the rarer the card, the stronger it was.
Well, anyway, Xia Tian, who had always liked card type games, gave it a pretty good rating.
Nowadays, Xia Tian often smiles when gaming. His smile also looked quite cute and genuine, as if he was completely immersed and enjoying the game.
Lin Jin quietly watched as Xia Tian’s emotions changed throughout the game, feeling that such a life was really too wonderful.
“Lin Jin, have some chicken soup.”
Her mom came in carrying a small bowl of chicken soup, smiling as she ruffled Lin Jin’s hair.
“Your hair quality is pretty good. Drink some more chicken soup, it’ll get even better.”
“What you want to say is the baby will be healthier, right?”
How could Lin Jin not know what her mom was thinking.
“Why’s Xia Tian streaming again?” Her mom quickly changed the subject “You don’t learn from him, quickly go sleep after you’re done drinking.”
“I know~”
