Chapter 435 - Extra 8 - The three walked away and the giggling from the little boy could still be heard. (1)
After Ning Zhi had gotten pregnant, she vomited a lot.
After time after she had vomited and the corners of her eyes had turned red and her black eyes teary from the awfulness of vomiting, she could always see Lu Jue standing next to her with his eyes reddened, looking like he felt worse than she did.
Ning Zhi found that comical. She would reach out her hand and touched the corner of his reddened eye with her slightly-cool finger and teased, “If you are about to cry when I am just puking, what are you going to do on the day that I give birth, hmm?”
Lu Jue’s brows furrowed deeply. Just the thought of it was enough to make his heart ached.
“Just this one time, Zhizhi. Let’s not go through this awfulness again.” Lu Jue’s voice was hoarse. It sounded like he was pleading with her. Just this one time was enough to make him feel like he was living everyday in fear.
Ning Zhi nodded casually.
Lu Jue was serious, however. He went for a small procedure without her knowing.
As the days gone on, Lu Jue’s had a hard time sleeping at night. He would wake up, startled, with whatever little movement coming from Ning Zhi.
He would make sure that Ning Zhi was fine before he’d hold her and go back to sleep.
When Ning Zhi woke up in the morning, she looked the 5 o’clock shadow on his chin and the dark circles under his eyes. Her heart ached. “Maybe we should sleep in separate rooms?”
He was too anxious and was woken up too often.
She was the one who was pregnant but she was doing well and a healthy pink glow could be seen on her little face. Lu Jue, however, had lost a lot of weight.
“No way.”
Lu Jue lowered his head and kissed Ning Zhi between her brows.
Her reflection could be seen in his pitch-black eyes. “It would be even more work for me to come over and check on you if we are to sleep in separate rooms. Better if you are right here with me. It would make me feel better.”
Ning Zhi nodded and let Lu Jue hold her in his arms.
The day that the child was born.
Mother and Father Lu, and Old Mr. Ning, Old Mrs. Song all arrived at the hospital.
They all looked anxious as they waited outside. Old Mrs. Song and Mother Lu couldn’t be more nervous. They muttered something constantly and asked for blessings from any and all deities.
Lu Jue stood not too far away, tall and his back straight. He looked pale. His lips were pinched shut tightly and pale and there were sweats all over his forehead. Nervousness and panic were all there could be seen in his pitch-black eyes.
When he was finally able to see Ning Zhi in bed, his eyes turned red as though he couldn’t hold back any more.

The sun was warm in the early summer. There were already a lot of buds on the flowers and green sprouts on the trees in the Lu’s garden.
A three-year old boy in a colorful shirt bounced out of the house.
“Young Master, don’t run. The sun is a little strong. Let me put a hat on you.” The maid chased behind him.
The little boy, Xiao Naihuang, turned around and only nodded after he saw the red hat that the maid was carrying in her hands.
The maid smiled and walked up to him. She squatted down and placed the little red hat with two bear ears on Xiao Naihuang’s head.
Ning Zhi had gone through a phase when she particularly enjoyed soft and tasty custard bun, hence the boy’s nickname is Xiao Naihung (little custard).
“Okay, here we go. Little Young Master is so cute.” The maid stopped herself from the urge of stroking Xiao Naihuang on his cheek.
Both Lu Jue and Ning Zhi were very attractive people and Xiao Naihuang was like a mini clone of Lu Jue.
Unlike Lu Jue, Xiao Naihuang inherited Ning Zhi’s large and limpid eyes. Whenever he looked at someone quietly with his large eyes, it could melt their heart.
“Thank you, aunty,” said Xiao Naihuang, He was a cute and polite little angel.
He ran off after he had thanked her.
