The military wife is pregnant and the tycoon, who has no heir, spoils her rotten.

Chapter 157 Oolong
Another half month passed before Lu Beiting finally had some free time.

In the evening, he returned home and saw Xia Zhi sitting at the table, sipping her porridge.

The warm yellow light poured down, softly enveloping her.

He walked lightly to Xia Zhi's side, sat down slowly, a smile playing on his lips, and asked, "Xia Xia, there's a market in town tomorrow, do you want to go?"

Upon hearing this, Xia Zhi nodded repeatedly, her tone full of anticipation: "Go, of course I'll go! If I don't go out for a walk soon, I feel like I'm going to get moldy all over."

Looking at her lively appearance, Lu Beiting couldn't help but reach out and ruffle her hair. Just then, he suddenly remembered the favor Xia Zhi had asked him to do last time.

"By the way, Xiaxia, last time you asked me to help Tuanzi find a good home, I found out a perfect place."

As he spoke, Lu Beiting took out a newspaper from his pocket, spread it out in front of Xia Zhi, and pointed steadily to an introduction on it, "This is it. You see, this is a special conservation base with a beautiful environment and complete facilities."

I heard that the base is located in Linchong Mountain, where the forest rangers have protected the forests for generations, and there are also several adorable giant pandas living there. Tuanzi will definitely have a comfortable and happy time there.

Xia Zhi took the newspaper and examined it closely; the environment and facilities looked quite nice.

Xia Zhi nodded in satisfaction and said, "Okay, the environment looks really nice. Let's find some time to send Tuanzi over together."

Xia Zhi rested her chin on her hand, thinking about what she had seen in the mountains recently. "Recently, Piqiu has grown into a big monkey, with a little female monkey following behind him. I guess it won't be long before he has a whole group of them."

Piqiu is now like a monkey king, with a group of monkeys following him wherever he goes. One of them is closest to him, so she guesses that it must be Piqiu's mate.

"That's a good thing!" Lu Beiting replied with a smile, picked up the hot water on the table, and took a small sip.

His gaze inadvertently fell on Xia Zhi's face, where he noticed her complexion was becoming increasingly rosy, and her skin was as white and smooth as a peeled egg.

For a moment, I was so engrossed in watching that I felt my throat go dry and a strange feeling welled up in my heart.

"Wife, haven't you noticed how much fairer you've become?" Lu Beiting couldn't help but ask, his voice filled with surprise.

Upon hearing this, Xia Zhi subconsciously touched her chubby cheeks and asked in confusion, "It's probably because I haven't been going out much lately and haven't been getting enough sun."

Looking at her adorable appearance, Lu Beiting felt a tickle in his heart and couldn't help but reach out and pinch her cheek. It felt soft and fluffy, like a marshmallow.

Then, he cupped her face in his hands and gently rubbed it, muttering, "My wife is getting cuter and cuter."

"Hey, what are you doing!" Xia Zhi said coquettishly, a faint blush rising on her cheeks, and gently patted Lu Beiting's hand.

Just then, she suddenly noticed several hideous scars on Lu Beiting's forearm, like ugly centipedes crawling on it.

Xia Zhi's heart clenched, and her eyes instantly reddened. She subconsciously reached out and touched the scars. "Does it hurt?"

Seeing her distressed expression, Lu Beiting felt a warmth in his heart. He gently pulled her into his arms, rested his chin on the top of her head, and said tenderly, "It doesn't hurt. It's just a minor injury. It's all healed now."

As he spoke, he gently placed his hand on Xia Zhi's slightly protruding pregnant belly, feeling the touch in his hand, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up.

"How have you been feeling lately? Are you still feeling unwell?" Lu Beiting asked softly.

"I feel much better, not as uncomfortable as before." Xia Zhi leaned against him, feeling his warmth and feeling very at ease. "That's good." Lu Beiting breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

"Go to sleep early, we'll go to town and have a good look around tomorrow." Lu Beiting said, gently picking up Xia Zhi and placing her on the bed.

Then, he turned around, went out, brought in hot water, and gently helped her wash up.

Looking at Lu Beiting, who was standing in front of her with a serious expression, Xia Zhi felt a little shy and a little unwilling.

She bit her lower lip, a thought suddenly flashing through her mind. She reached out and gently touched his chest, deliberately using a soft, coquettish voice to ask, "Brother Ting, do you have any other injuries?"

Lu Beiting's hand suddenly stopped moving, his eyes instantly turning dark and unfathomable as he stared intently at her, his Adam's apple bobbing as he said in a hoarse voice, "Yes."

After saying that, he stood in front of Xia Zhi and slowly took off his shirt.

Xia Zhi looked at his muscular chest, her face stiffened, and just as she was about to withdraw her hand, Lu Beiting grabbed it with lightning speed.

"Here, I was accidentally cut by a knife while fighting the thugs." Lu Beiting took her hand and gently placed it on a thin scar. "I was shot here, but luckily it wasn't deep, and it was removed in time. And here..."

Every time Lu Beiting mentioned a location, he would pull her hand to touch it. Xia Zhi felt her fingertips burning and her heart pounding faster and faster.

Looking at the scars, some deep and some shallow, on Lu Beiting's body, Xia Zhi's expression gradually turned to heartache, and her eyes filled with tears.

Looking at the tears glistening in her eyes, Lu Beiting sighed helplessly, gently pulled her into his arms, and said softly, "Little coward, why are you crying?"

Lu Beiting quickly dried her off and carried her to bed.

Looking into her red and swollen eyes, I felt a mixture of helplessness and doting affection.

“I’m fine. With you and the baby here, no matter what danger I encounter, I will come back safely.” Lu Beiting whispered in her ear, his voice deep and firm.

"Mmm." Xia Zhi nestled into his arms, taking a deep breath of his familiar scent.

Just then, Xia Zhi suddenly smelled an unusual fragrance, faint yet remarkably clear.

She instantly sat up from Lu Beiting's embrace, pinched his waist hard, and questioned him in a wronged yet firm tone, "Tell me, are you having an affair?"

Lu Beiting's body stiffened abruptly, a hint of panic flashing across his face. He hurriedly wiped away her tears, explaining, "I, I didn't! I'm innocent! I'm so busy every day, how could I have time to look for someone else?"

"Look at you, you just stopped crying and you're crying again. Aren't you afraid of ruining your little face?" Lu Beiting said, trying to distract her while coaxing her.

Xia Zhi hesitated for a moment, then turned her head away, not wanting to look at him, and said angrily, "Then tell me why you smell different!"

"Huh?" Lu Beiting looked bewildered. He leaned closer to smell it, but could only detect a faint milky scent emanating from Xia Zhi.

"Wife, is that your scent?" Lu Beiting asked in confusion.

Xia Zhi sat up straight, put her hands on her hips, glared at him, and said angrily, "Bullshit, I didn't even put on any face cream, where would the fragrance come from!"
