Lin Yizhi gently stroked the skirt and nodded, "It's really nice, we want it." Her eyes never left the skirt, as if she was looking at a rare treasure.

After Gu Jiang paid, Lin Yizhi still held the skirt lovingly. They continued to stroll in the store and saw many cute accessories, including a pink headband decorated with a small bow, the edge of which was embroidered with gold thread and sparkling under the light; a small bracelet with colorful beads and cute animal-shaped pendants, every detail was lifelike; and small socks with bows, which were made of pure cotton, soft in texture, and printed with pink flowers on a white background.

Every time Lin Yizhi saw something, her eyes would light up, and her face would be filled with excitement, as if she had discovered a new world. She would pick up the jewelry, put it in front of her eyes and examine it carefully, then turn her head to look at Gu Jiang, her eyes glittering with anticipation, "Jiang, look at this headband, it will look great with that skirt. And this bracelet, it's so small and delicate." Her tone was full of joy and impatience.

Gu Jiang smiled dotingly. His smile was like the sun shining through the clouds, warm and bright. "Buy them all if you like them. We want to dress our daughter up beautifully." His eyes were full of expectations for the future, as if he had already seen his daughter's lovely appearance in beautiful clothes.

After choosing a lot of things, they left the maternity and baby store. Walking on the road, Lin Yizhi was in a particularly good mood. She and Gu Jiang discussed life after their daughter was born. The flowers on the roadside swayed gently in the breeze, as if dancing for their happiness.

"When the baby is born, we can take lots of beautiful photos of her to record every moment of her growth." Lin Yizhi's eyes were full of longing. She tilted her head slightly and looked at the sky, as if she saw the beautiful scenes of the future emerging one by one in the sky. "We can hang photos all over her room to let her know that she is growing up in full of love."

"Yes, we can also hold a warm birthday party for her and invite relatives and friends to celebrate together." Gu Jiang responded, his face was filled with a happy smile, his eyes were shining, "The party should have a big cake decorated with cute cartoon patterns and colorful balloons, decorating the whole room like a fairy tale world."

……

night.

Gu Jiang was concentrating on preparing dinner in the kitchen. The soup was boiling in the pot, and the steam was rising. The mist was a little hazy under the kitchen light. He was chopping vegetables skillfully, and the knife and the chopping board made a rhythmic sound.

Lin Yizhi sat on the sofa in the living room, looking at the small rental house with a somewhat lost look.

Their photos were hung on the wall, and some simple furniture was placed around. The originally warm space now made her feel depressed. She knew that this place could no longer accommodate their upcoming new life. Her eyes fell on Gu Jiang's busy back, and she pursed her lips slightly. After hesitating for a long time, she finally decided to speak her mind.

"Why don't we go home?" Lin Yizhi's voice was a little soft, with a hint of temptation, but it broke the original tranquility in the house.

Gu Jiang's hand paused in the air, and he turned around to look at Lin Yizhi in surprise. The soup in the pot was still bubbling, but he had no time to care about it. He put down the kitchen knife, wiped his hands with a towel, and slowly walked towards Lin Yizhi.

"You said you wanted to go home?" Gu Jiang asked softly, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

Lin Yizhi nodded slightly, with a hint of complex emotions in her eyes: "Well, my parents will definitely be very happy to know that we have reconciled and that I am pregnant. I have been away from home for several years. Time flies."

She raised her head slightly and looked out the window, as if recalling the past. "I often think of the days when I was with my family when I was a child. I really miss the laughter and warmth. I wonder how my nieces and nephews are doing now. Have they grown a lot taller? And my parents, have they... grown old? I dare not imagine." Lin Yizhi said, her voice choked a little, and her eyes were slightly red. Gu Jiang listened quietly. He looked at Lin Yizhi's sad and expectant eyes, and his heart softened. He knew what home meant to Lin Yizhi. He was an orphan and grew up in loneliness. It was Lin Yizhi who made him feel at home. And for Lin Yizhi, that distant home had her inseparable family affection.

He sat down next to Lin Yizhi and gently held her hand: "Have you really thought it through?"

Lin Yizhi looked at him and nodded firmly: "Well, I've thought about it. Although there are many memories of us here, I really miss my family."

Gu Jiang was silent for a while. He looked around the rental house where they had lived for a long time.

This place witnessed their love, with sweet laughter and occasional quarrels. But he knew that Lin Yizhi was right, now that they had a baby, everything was different.

"Indeed, we have stayed here for too long." Gu Jiang said slowly. There was a hint of reluctance in his eyes, but more of it was anticipation for the future. "You are different from me. You have family, and they must miss you too. As long as you are happy, I will support you."

Lin Yizhi's eyes flashed with surprise: "You agree?"

Gu Jiang patted her head lovingly: "Yes, I agree. It's time to go back. We need to give the baby a complete home and let her grow up surrounded by her family."

Lin Yizhi burst into laughter, she leaned in Gu Jiang's arms, her face filled with happiness and expectation. At this moment, they seemed to have seen the warm scene of reuniting with their family after returning home, that is a future full of love.

After Gu Jiang nodded in agreement, a relieved smile immediately appeared on Lin Yizhi's face. She quickly picked up her mobile phone and dialed her home number.

Song Rouying's familiar voice soon came from the other end of the phone: "Hello, who is this?"

Lin Yizhi's voice trembled with excitement: "Mom, it's me, Yizhi, can you recognize my voice?"

"Oh, Yizhi, I could tell it right away. Why are you calling at this time? Is there something wrong?" he asked with concern.

Lin Yizhi took a deep breath and said with a smile: "Mom, I have great news to tell you. Gu Jiang and I have reconciled, and I'm pregnant. We plan to go home and live here. You and Dad must be very happy!" (End of this chapter)
