In This Life, I Will Extremely Pamper My Short-Lived Husband

Of course, these matters were not set in stone. If a pregnant woman felt unwell, she would need to seek medical attention immediately, without any time constraints.

Meanwhile, Xu Jinzhi and Xie Yanchuan were guessing, when Lin Chu suddenly spotted Xu Jinzhi.

Lin Chu knew Xu Jinzhi, so when she saw her, she didn’t doubt whether she had mistaken someone else. Instead, she immediately grew nervous and instinctively avoided Xu Jinzhi’s gaze.

They were originally walking towards each other, but now Lin Chu had lowered her head and moved far away from Xu Jinzhi through the crowd, then quickly left.

Xu Jinzhi watched, puzzled, "Is she avoiding me?"

"Hmm," Xie Yanchuan nodded.

There was nothing to doubt, given Lin Chu’s obvious behavior.

"Worried I would harm the child in her belly?" Xu Jinzhi asked.

Xie Yanchuan nodded again, "Probably."

"Ridiculous," Xu Jinzhi couldn’t help but curse.

"Let’s go, find a doctor first," Xie Yanchuan didn’t dwell on Lin Chu. After all, he already knew that Lin Chu had no relation to his father-in-law, so there was no need to keep that in mind.

Xu Jinzhi didn’t say more and followed Xie Yanchuan to the previous office.

At this moment, neither Xu Jinzhi nor Xie Yanchuan knew that Lin Chu had found out that the child was not Xu Zhen’s.

All the check-up results were fine, and the doctor prescribed folic acid for Xu Jinzhi to take for now, advising her that she could start trying for a baby after three months.

Afterward, Xu Jinzhi went back to work at the company, and Xie Yanchuan, who didn’t have classes today, still went to the school to work on experiments in the lab.

Before long, it was New Year’s Day.

Xu Jinzhi didn’t have to work and had stayed up frolicking with Xie Yanchuan until late into the night, so she couldn’t wake up at all now.

By the time Xu Jinzhi awoke, it was already past ten o’clock. The curtains were already drawn and the sunlight shone in, but Xu Jinzhi had noticed from her bed that it was snowing outside.

Xu Jinzhi couldn’t help but feel cold, thankfully the villa was warm.

After lying around for a while, Xu Jinzhi struggled out of bed and went to the bathroom to quickly wash up, then left the bedroom.

Xu Jinzhi first glanced from the hallway down to the living room on the first floor. Not seeing Xie Yanchuan’s figure, Xu Jinzhi guessed that he might be in the study. She wasn’t in a hurry to go downstairs and went straight to the study to find Xie Yanchuan.

But as she reached the study door, Xu Jinzhi didn’t knock. She quietly pushed the door open just a crack and peeked inside.

At that moment, Xie Yanchuan was wearing a beige turtleneck cashmere sweater, sporting a pair of rimless glasses, sitting at the desk. His head was slightly lowered, holding a pen, seemingly busy writing something.

Xu Jinzhi couldn’t help but fall for him all over again. How could Xie Yanchuan be so attractive, hitting all her sweet spots so precisely, she was utterly powerless to resist.

As Xu Jinzhi watched Xie Yanchuan, he sensed someone at the door and raised his head to look over.

In the moment their eyes met, Xie Yanchuan appeared somewhat surprised. He probably didn’t expect Xu Jinzhi to be watching him from the door like this, while Xu Jinzhi, on the other hand, simply smiled back at Xie Yanchuan calmly.

Xie Yanchuan came back to his senses and asked, "Did you just get up?"

Xie Yanchuan guessed she must have just woken up, since she was still asleep when he had checked the bedroom half an hour ago. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"Yeah." Xu Jinzhi nodded and directly pushed the door open to enter.

Xie Yanchuan also stood up, and while taking off his glasses, he said, "Let’s go down for breakfast first."

"Don’t be in such a hurry to take them off; I haven’t had my fill of looking at you yet." Xu Jinzhi frowned slightly in reproach, expressing dissatisfaction with Xie Yanchuan’s action.

Xie Yanchuan’s hand holding his glasses paused for a moment, and when he looked at Xu Jinzhi, there seemed to be a slightly different emotion in his eyes.

Meanwhile, Xu Jinzhi had already come up to Xie Yanchuan. She directly took his glasses from his hand and then put them back on him.

Xie Yanchuan just stood obediently, letting Xu Jinzhi help him put them on again.

Their distance was very close, and Xu Jinzhi had to tilt her head up to look at Xie Yanchuan.

After staring at Xie Yanchuan for a while, Xu Jinzhi sighed again and said, "So good-looking."

Xie Yanchuan’s cheeks turned slightly red, embarrassed by Xu Jinzhi’s actions, but as he caught the way Xu Jinzhi looked at him, Xie Yanchuan blinked, his Adam’s apple bobbed slightly, and his hand at his side moved unconsciously.

After a silent eye contact for a good while, Xie Yanchuan said with a somewhat hoarse voice, "Let’s go downstairs for breakfast first."

"Tsk, fine." Xu Jinzhi reluctantly agreed.

Xie Yanchuan hesitated for a few seconds, didn’t take off his glasses again, and just left the study wearing them.

It was already quite late by this point; it would be lunchtime in another hour, but Xie Yanchuan still wanted Xu Jinzhi to eat something to fill her stomach first.

Xie Yanchuan had already eaten, and now he was just sitting at the dining table with her, simply keeping Xu Jinzhi company.

While eating, Xu Jinzhi talked to Xie Yanchuan about dinner at the Xie Family that night, and then mentioned that she needed to attend a banquet the next evening, so Xie Yanchuan also had to accompany her.

Xie Yanchuan nodded in agreement; after all, he had the next few days off and wasn’t planning on going back to the school to conduct experiments.

After finishing breakfast, Xu Jinzhi was holding a glass of water. Her phone started dinging several times. She casually picked up her phone and then saw the message and video sent by Song You.

Song You said, "Thrilling!"

At that moment, Xu Jinzhi didn’t know what Song You was talking about, but once she started the video, she choked on the water!

Xu Jinzhi quickly put the glass aside and couldn’t stop coughing.

Xie Yanchuan frowned slightly, reaching out to pat Xu Jinzhi’s back and spoke with a hint of reproach in his tone, "What’s the rush?"

Xu Jinzhi stopped coughing and didn’t mind the reproach in Xie Yanchuan’s tone, and said to him, "Lin Chu has been beaten up by Mrs. Li and her people."

Xie Yanchuan paused, "Mrs. Li already knows about their affair?"

"Mr. Xu sure moves fast," Xu Jinzhi said with a crooked smile.

"What do you think Liang Shiyu’s face will look like when she sees my dad tonight?" Xu Jinzhi felt a bit of excitement stirring within.

The dinner tonight, Xie Suian had specifically invited Xu Zhen in person yesterday.

Xie Yanchuan was silent for a moment, "She might feel embarrassed, I guess."

Listening to Xie Yanchuan, Xu Jinzhi truly found it amusing, only he could say it so euphemistically.

Afterward, Xu Jinzhi did not continue discussing Liang Shiyu with Xie Yanchuan, who was not good at speaking ill of others behind their backs.
