A sophomore in college starts by getting a marriage certificate with a female CEO.

Li Xixue placed her phone face down on her lap and remained silent.

Both sets of mothers are urging them.

There's no escaping this now.

"How about... we get it done first?"

Lu Yang tentatively spoke.

Li Xixue turned her head to look at him.

"You want to do it?"

"I don't care, it's up to you."

Li Xixue looked down at her stomach.

It's only been two weeks, and you can't tell she's pregnant yet.

But in a few months, it definitely won't be able to be hidden anymore.

When the wedding comes, what will it look like if I'm pregnant?

Besides, she wouldn't accept wearing a wedding dress while heavily pregnant.

Lu Yang said directly, "Why don't we just tell her you're pregnant?"

"no."

Li Xixue immediately refused, saying, "I told her she can move in tomorrow."

Lu Yang thought about that scene.

indeed.

If Mom comes, the two of them will be watched even when they sleep in the same room.

Besides, they have two mothers now.

"Okay, we'll discuss it later."

The two sat on the sofa for a while, then Lu Yang got up and went to the kitchen to cook.

What are we eating today?

"Tomato and egg stir-fry, and pork rib soup. You're pregnant now, so you need to eat well."

"I am not lacking in nutrition."

"That still needs to be done."

Lu Yang said seriously, "You used to eat healthy meals every day. What kind of nutrition could those things possibly provide?"

Li Xixue opened her mouth, but did not refute.

Lu Yang is right.

In the past, she would eat healthy meals for lunch to save time.

I've been eating it for several years.

"Eat less of those things in the future."

"Then what should I eat?"

You eat whatever I cook.

Li Xixue snorted.

A dozen minutes later, Lu Yang brought out the dishes.

She sat at the dining table, watching the dishes that Lu Yang brought out.

The scrambled eggs with tomatoes are distinctly red and yellow, the pork rib soup is steaming, and a few pieces of corn and carrots float in the soup.

No salad dressing, no boiled chicken breast, just steaming hot home-style dishes.

"Try it."

Lu Yang handed her the bowl of rice and then ladled out a small bowl of soup and pushed it in front of her.

Li Xixue picked up the porcelain spoon, scooped up a little soup, and sipped it into her mouth.

The soup was not greasy and had the sweetness of corn.

"How is it? Chef Lu's cooking skills haven't gotten any worse, have they?"

Lu Yang pulled out a chair and sat down.

"good."

Li Xixue put down her spoon, picked up her chopsticks, and took a piece of pork rib.

The meat was stewed until very tender; it fell off the bone with the slightest touch.

She said it was alright, but her chopsticks never stopped.

Lu Yang watched as she finished half a bowl of rice, then added half a spoonful of scrambled eggs with tomatoes to the bottom of the bowl, and couldn't help but tap the table.

"Eat slowly, no one's going to take it from you."

"It's because I'm hungry."

Li Xixue swallowed the last bite of rice, took a tissue to wipe her mouth, and was still being stubborn.

"Who just said they weren't lacking in nutrition?"

Li Xixue looked up at him, crumpled the tissue into a ball, and threw it into the trash can.

"I'm full, go wash the dishes."

"Alright, I'll go serve the young lady right away."

Lu Yang tidied up the dishes and headed to the kitchen. Li Xixue leaned back in her chair, watching his back.

The living room was lit by a warm yellow ceiling light, and the sound of the faucet rinsing the dishes was reassuring.

There used to be only one person in this room at night.

She was used to ordering takeout, eating a couple of bites and then leaving it aside.

There are hot dishes on the table now, and someone in the kitchen is washing dishes.

Li Xixue touched her abdomen, which was still flat, and she could feel the taut lines through her skirt.

Is there really one more person?

She still couldn't quite believe it.

Lu Yang came out of the kitchen after washing his hands, still wearing the floral apron.

"What are you looking at, young lady?"

"Let's see when you'll take off that apron."

Lu Yang glanced down, then simply walked over and put his hand on the back of her chair without untying the object.

"What? Do you want me to serve you in bed?"

Li Xixue wanted to kick him, but Lu Yang grabbed her hand instead.

Lu Yang placed her feet on his lap and covered them with his hands.

Li Xixue's body suddenly went limp.

"Hmm~ What are you doing?"

Lu Yang pressed down on the soles of her feet twice, then kneaded upwards from her ankles.

"Is it comfortable?"

Li Xixue was wearing a very light and thin dress for home, and Lu Yang's hand easily slipped inside.

"What are you doing?" Li Xixue tried to stop his hand.

"A massage, the doctor said pregnant women are prone to edema, so I'll clear your channels beforehand, oh I mean your meridians."

Li Xixue didn't believe his nonsense.

"It's only been two weeks, what swelling?"

"Prevention is better than cure."

Lu Yang's hand moved up a little further and stopped on his calf.

Li Xixue ignored him and pursed her lips.

Surprisingly, it was quite comfortable.

While pressing the buttons, Lu Yang said, "By the way, Bao, what if Sun Zhigang doesn't submit a report in three days?"

Li Xixue looked at him, enjoying herself as she spoke.

"He'll definitely be able to submit it, but the question is how exaggerated the data will be. How do you plan to expose him at the meeting?"

She originally didn't want to get involved.

But unfortunately, the service I gave her tonight was too comfortable.

"Just throw the industrial park documents in his face."

Li Xixue shook her head.

"Too blunt."

"Then how do we do it?"

"Let Chen Yan make the arrangements. Pretend to let the finance department know about this in advance. When Sun Zhigang submits the report, the finance department will naturally stand up and question him. You don't need to get involved yourself."

Lu Yang thought for a moment and said, "My wife is still the smartest."

His hand withdrew from his calf.

Li Xixue pulled her foot back and put on her slippers.

"I'm going to take a shower."

"Together?"

Lu Yang stood up and followed behind.

"roll."

Li Xixue went into the bathroom and locked the door from the inside.

Lu Yang returned to the sofa and picked up his phone.

Lu's mother sent a few WeChat messages.

Son, bring Xiaoxue home for dinner this weekend. I'll book a private room and invite your in-laws too.

Lu Yang replied: "Mom, I have to work overtime at the company this weekend."

Lu's Mom: [What overtime? No weekends off? I'm going to report your boss.]

Lu Yang typed a few words.

The boss was right next to me; I told her.

Lu's mother: [Don't talk nonsense. Focus on your work and don't embarrass Xiaoxue.]

The sound of water in the bathroom stopped.

A few minutes later, the door opened.

Li Xixue came out wearing a bathrobe, her hair half-dry, and she was drying herself with a towel.

Lu Yang walked over, took the towel, and helped her wipe herself.

Li Xixue sat on the sofa.

Lu Yang stood behind her.

My mom wants both families to have a meal together this weekend.

Li Xixue did not turn around.

"Eat? Where?"

"They booked a private room outside, probably to urge us on the progress in person."

Li Xixue's shoulders stiffened slightly.

"What's the progress?"

"The wedding schedule, and the baby's birth schedule."

Li Xixue didn't speak.

"Are you going or not?" Lu Yang asked.

"Go ahead, you can't keep hiding forever."

Li Xixue took the towel down.

"However, let's not talk about pregnancy for now."

"Can it be kept secret?"

"Just don't say it."

Bring me the hairdryer.

Lu Yang plugged in the power, turned on the warm air, and started drying her hair.

After drying herself, Li Xixue stood up; the straps of her bathrobe were a little loose.

Lu Yang helped her tie it tighter.

"Why is it so tight?" Li Xixue tugged at the strap.

"To prevent wardrobe malfunctions."

"Why worry about wardrobe malfunctions in your own home?"

"Defend against me."

Li Xixue looked at him.

"You're pregnant now, I need to restrain myself."

Lu Yang was very serious.

Li Xixue turned and walked towards the bedroom.

"Who asked you to restrain yourself?"
