1970s: Hot wife accompanies the army, cold-faced rough man is not easy to tease

Chapter 333 I Only Like You

The beef was steaming hot, the whole bowl a bright red color. It would be even more flavorful if eaten tomorrow, but Lu Youyou couldn't wait. She picked up a piece with her chopsticks and put it in her mouth.

"How is it? How does it taste?" Lu Zhiyu was a little unsure, as he hadn't made it in a long time.

"Mmm, delicious!" Lu Youyou took one bite and then another.

Lin Nanxing was worried that she would get a stomachache from eating too much, so when she picked up her third plate, he couldn't help but say, "There's so much, save it for later!"

"Mmm!" Lu Youyou nodded as she put it in her mouth.

Lin Nanxing glared angrily, then looked at the two men beside her; neither of them could speak up for her.

Lu Zhiyu advised, "I deliberately used non-spicy chili peppers. They're fragrant but not spicy. It shouldn't be a problem to eat a few more bites, right?"

Even if it's not spicy, you shouldn't eat that much. It's still something that can cause internal heat, so you should eat in moderation.

Gu Qingye didn't completely ignore it; he counted the bites, knowing that Lu Youyou would definitely speak up when she took her fifth bite.

"Youyou!" Lin Nanxing called out again.

"Mmm, last bite!"

Lu Youyou picked up five bites before reluctantly stopping. In a direction she couldn't see, Gu Qingye secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing her enjoying her meal, Lu Zhiyu felt a deep sense of satisfaction as a loving father: "I'll seal the rest and take it home for you. You can eat it whenever you want."

Meeting Lin Nanxing's glaring gaze, he coughed lightly: "Well, don't eat too much, just five, six, seven or eight bites at a time is enough."

Lin Nanxing was utterly helpless; his father was just too unreliable!

Lu Youyou didn't go home that night, so Gu Qingye stayed with her.

She was lying in bed, feeling drowsy. When she turned over, she felt Gu Qingye lying on his side, propping his head up and looking at her.

"Hmm...why aren't you asleep yet?"

Lu Youyou snuggled closer to his chest. Gu Qingye, worried that she might be uncomfortable, lowered his arm so she could rest her head on it, and then pulled her into his arms.

"Can't sleep."

Lu Youyou regained some clarity, lifted her eyelids, and smiled, "Because I'm pregnant?"

"Mmm." Gu Qingye couldn't help but kiss her forehead for a long time. He had wanted to do it earlier, but he restrained himself for fear of disturbing her sleep.

"You like children that much?" Lu Youyou reached out and touched his chin. There were a few stubbles sticking out, and they felt prickly to the touch, which was kind of addictive.

"I only like you because it's you." After saying that, she lowered her head and kissed him again, first on his forehead, then on the tip of his nose, and finally on his red lips.

He has no particular preference for or dislike of children; it's fine if they're born or not. If Lu Youyou is willing to have a child, then it will be her baby; if she's not, it doesn't matter.

"Are you looking forward to it?" Gu Qingye asked softly.

This pregnancy was unexpected, and he wasn't 100% sure that Lu Youyou would definitely look forward to the baby's arrival. If...

Lu Youyou is not a DINK (Double Income No Kids) advocate and had never thought about what it would be like to have children, but raising a child of their own with Gu Qingye seems pretty good.

The moment she found out she was pregnant, she felt joy rather than shock.

The parents are loving, and the child comes into the world carrying the expectations of both parents. Thinking of this, I suddenly feel a sense of satisfaction.

"Yes, I'm looking forward to it." Lu Youyou smiled.

Knowing that she was willing, Gu Qingye felt as if his heart was soaking in a hot spring. He just wanted to hold her tightly, but he was also afraid of touching her stomach.

Lu Youyou felt him reach out and then pull his hand back. She smiled and moved closer to him, grabbing his arm and wrapping it around her waist.

"It's just an embryo right now, tiny little thing. You can hold it if you want, it's okay."

Gu Qingye still didn't dare to exert any force: "Didn't they say we have to be careful during the first three months?" Lu Youyou chuckled: "It's not that you have to be careful. Just do what you're supposed to do, just avoid strenuous exercise."

Gu Qingye nodded, and tightened his arms a little, but there was still at least half an arm's length distance between him and her stomach.

Lu Youyou felt tired and wanted to turn around and lean against him, but as soon as she moved, a hand gently pressed her down: "What do you want? I'll get it for you."

Lu Youyou chuckled: "I just wanted to turn around!"

Then she was picked up and turned around without using any of her own strength.

Okay, so this is probably what it's like when a new pregnant man first becomes pregnant? He feels like she's an antique porcelain piece, easily broken if he's not careful.

The next morning, Lu Youyou woke up naturally and took a look... well, she didn't seem to feel anything.

It seems that I only felt a tiny bit of "pregnancy feeling" yesterday when I first found out, but after a night I accepted it both physically and mentally, and I felt normal again.

Stretching her arms and legs, she seems fine. Her back isn't so sore anymore, and she doesn't feel nauseous. So far, she seems to be a sensible child.

Lu Youyou walked to the full-length mirror, pulled her pajamas tighter from behind, and the soft fabric clung to her flat waist and abdomen, revealing no curves.

"Youyou, are you up?" Lin Nanxing's voice came from outside.

"Get up!"

Lin Nanxing pushed open the door and saw Lu Youyou looking in the mirror. He laughed and said, "You're so thin. If you don't gain weight, it will probably take three months to see your outline."

"Mom, did you gain weight when you were pregnant with me?"

"No, your grandma doesn't either. There's no gene for being overweight in our family."

Lu Youyou felt a little relieved.

Women, what woman doesn't love beauty? To say she has much affection for the baby in her belly right now, that's definitely not true. Compared to the unborn child, she loves herself more.

Lin Nanxing seized every opportunity to provide prenatal education: "If you want to maintain your figure, eat and drink normally and exercise normally. You should eat less of those foods that are high in oil, spice, sugar, and salt."

"Mom, you didn't hide my beef jerky, did you?"

"That's a good suggestion. It should be hidden away, or we can just leave it here and you can come and have a bite whenever you want."

Lin Nanxing smiled. This was a great idea! How come she hadn't thought of it?

"Stop talking, or I'll crave it again. Is pregnancy really that amazing? Just thinking about that taste makes my mouth water..."

"No, no matter how much you beg, I won't agree. What pregnant woman eats that first thing in the morning?!" Lin Nanxing hardened her heart. "Hurry up and change your clothes. We need to go to the hospital."

Lu Youyou went to the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department of Peking Union Medical College Hospital with her mother. She underwent all the necessary examinations, and the results confirmed that she was indeed pregnant.

Although I already knew, the test results still felt heavy in my hands.

"What are your plans? Go back to your place or stay at home?" Lin Nanxing asked.

Lu Youyou was stunned for a few seconds before she reacted and immediately shook her head: "No, no, no, I'd better go back. My workplace is closer."

Lin Nanxing said irritably, "Is it because it's close to work?"

Lu Youyou retorted righteously, "What else could it be but for the beef?"

"Tsk..."

Lu Youyou, without blushing or skipping a beat, saw Gu Qingye standing there as soon as she stepped out of the hospital.

Her eyes curved into crescents as she ran over and shoved the examination report into his hand.

"Congratulations, Comrade Gu, you're going to be a father!"

　How many kids do you think is good?
