"Morning," he said with a doting smile.
He then kissed her lips, "My dearest Ran Bao'er."
Shi Ran was stunned for a moment, belatedly remembering the passionate night before. Her cheeks flushed with embarrassment.
Although she was pregnant, she had passed the critical period, and appropriate marital relations were fine. Tang Si had been very gentle, and there had been no impact on the child.
However, at this moment, they were embracing each other without any clothes, and Shi Ran found it too unaccustomed.
Suddenly, she frowned, "Oh no, I said I was going back yesterday. I haven't returned yet, and my mother will be worried to death."
She sat up abruptly but was pulled back into his arms by Tang Si. "Don't worry, I've already called your mother."
"You called?"
"To be precise, your mother called. I explained to her that you fell asleep after bringing me back and I couldn't bear to wake you. Your mother smiled and told me to take good care of you."
As he spoke, Tang Si's face was beaming, full of smiles.
Shi Ran shot him a chiding glance, "How am I supposed to explain this to my mom when I go back?"
"You can explain it however you like," Tang Si reached out and caressed her cheek. "Besides, I'll have to meet your mother sooner or later. What are you worried about?"
Shi Ran pursed her lips and remained silent.
...
Qing Muye and Lu Yanming indeed had matters to attend to late at night, but it wasn't related to the factory.
The two of them handled company affairs and had been busy all night, without resting the entire next day, leaving them exhausted.
In the afternoon, after everything was settled, Qing Muye and Lu Yanming finally had time to eat.
A lavish lunch had just arrived from Yipinju. Before they could even start, the office door opened, and Tang Si walked in.
Seeing Tang Si, Qing Muye glanced at Lu Yanming, and the two exchanged a look and smiled at each other.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, your smile is reaching your ears. What, are you back together?" Lu Yanming put down his chopsticks and teased Tang Si.
Qing Muye, who was opening his lunchbox, couldn't resist teasing, "Do I need to say? He naturally won the beauty."
Although they were teasing, they were happy to see the smile on Tang Si's face.
"So shallow, so shallow."
Tang Si removed the black and white checkered scarf from his neck, hung it on the nearby coat rack, and walked over to sit beside Lu Yanming. "Big Brother, I think I really envy Second Brother. Look, he has twins with Little Chili, how great is that."
"That's true, who wouldn't envy twins?" Lu Yanming nodded, then shook his head. "You, just stop thinking about it. Deal with your family matters first before thinking about children."
Qing Muye raised his eyebrows and looked at Tang Si meaningfully, vaguely guessing something.
Tang Si raised his hand and patted Lu Yanming's chest. "Don't speak so definitively." He put on a calm facade, then suddenly jumped up and slapped Lu Yanming heavily on the shoulder, exclaiming excitedly, "I'm going to be a dad! Our Ran Bao'er is pregnant."
"Going to be a dad?" Lu Yanming was greatly surprised.
Qing Muye, "Congratulations." As expected.
"Of course! My Ran Bao'er is super amazing, she's pregnant with three little ones." He held up three fingers and provocatively raised his eyebrows at Qing Muye. "Second Brother, isn't my Ran Bao'er amazing? She has one more than your twins."
At this moment, Tang Si was as happy as a child.
His rebellious, unrestrained, and carefree self had returned.
Before, he had seemed like a soulless being, like a walking corpse every day. But today, it was as if his soul had returned to his body, restoring his spirit and vigor.
Qing Muye applauded. "I didn't realize you were so capable. Congratulations, congratulations."
