The child... his and Zhizhi's child!

She is pregnant!

She was carrying their child!

He almost wanted to rush out immediately, to her studio, to hold her tightly in his arms, to kiss her, and to make sure it was real.

But his remaining rationality forcibly pulled him back.

He took a few deep breaths to calm himself down.

Zhizhi left the pregnancy test here without telling him immediately. Was she not ready yet?

Or do I want to surprise him?

He couldn't act rashly and frighten her.

But the ecstasy and eagerness were no longer able to be suppressed.

He rewrapped the pregnancy test in a new tissue, put it back in its place, and rushed downstairs, even forgetting to take the important document he had returned with, and drove straight to Little Tree Hole Studio.

Along the way, countless thoughts clashed in his mind: How is her body?

Are you feeling unwell?

When was it discovered?

Is she... happy?

Will there be any pressure?

He was going to be a father... The heavy sense of responsibility and boundless joy brought by this identity overwhelmed him.

The car came to an abrupt stop outside the studio courtyard.

He didn't even wait for the car to come to a complete stop before pushing open the door and getting out. He strode inside, ignoring the receptionist's surprised "President Wei?", and headed straight for Bian Zhizhi's office.

The door was ajar.

He gently pushed it away.

Bian Zhizhi was sitting behind her desk, facing the computer screen, holding a pen in her hand. She seemed to be working, but her eyes were somewhat vacant.

Wei Zixian stood at the door, his breathing still a little unsteady. Just looking at her, his heart felt like it was filled with a bittersweet, throbbing pain, almost overflowing.

Bian Zhizhi noticed the gaze, looked up, and was clearly taken aback when she saw it was him: "Zixian? What are you doing here...?"

Before he could finish speaking, Wei Zixian had already walked up to her step by step and half-squatted down in front of her chair, a posture that made him look up at her slightly.

He gently took her hand, which was resting on her knee; her hand was a little cold.

He wrapped his hands around her, trying to warm her, but his gaze remained fixed on her eyes, which were churning with too many emotions.

His Adam's apple bobbed, and he spoke, his voice trembling noticeably from the effort to suppress his excitement, incredibly low and hoarse:

"Zhizhi..."

He paused, as if he needed to gather his strength before asking the question that made his heart pound.

"I saw it... in the bathroom..."

He stared intently into her eyes, not wanting to miss the slightest reaction from her:

"...Is it true?"

Bian Zhizhi looked at him.

Looking at this man who was usually calm and composed in front of her, her fingers trembled slightly with excitement.

That cautious yet impatient demeanor completely shattered any hesitation in her heart.

She gripped his hand tightly in return and nodded without hesitation.

"Yes, it's true."

She touched his cheek with her other hand and said, "Wei Zixian, you're going to be a father."

The moment he finished speaking, Wei Zixian stood up and hugged her.

He buried his face deep in the crook of her neck, his breathing heavy, his shoulders trembling.

He didn't say anything, he just held her like that, with all his might.

Bian Zhizhi could feel warm liquid wetting the fabric around her shoulders and neck.

After a long while, he loosened his grip on her slightly, but his arms remained wrapped around her waist, unwilling to let go.

He looked up, his eyes red and his face still wet with tears.

He looked at her, his gaze slowly moving from her eyes to her still flat stomach, and carefully placed his palm gently on her stomach.

There, the fruit of their love is being conceived, and their lives are continuing.

"Zhizhi..." he called her again, "Thank you."

Thank you for coming back to me.

Thank you for loving me.

Thank you for bestowing upon me this invaluable treasure.

The original marriage proposal plan needed to be readjusted in the face of this unexpected gift of life.

But in Wei Zixian's heart, an even more important idea had already taken shape.

He wants to propose as soon as possible.

Give her an unforgettable ceremony before she becomes pregnant and while she is still able to move around freely.

Then, he would marry her in grand style, making her his rightful wife and the mother of his children amidst everyone's blessings.
