We moved to Golden Courtyard

"Don't cry when you're happy, Xu Qi, and... there might be more good news than just this one."

Ugh?

As Mei finished speaking, the professor's door was suddenly opened.

Accompanied by Su and Snake, Alicia slowly walked out from inside.

Her movements were almost identical to Mei's, gently stroking her stomach.

It's just that the expression on his face has a slightly dazed and cute feel to it.

Unlike Mei, who at least quickly accepted the fact that she was pregnant.

Clearly, Alicia needs a little more time.

So when she saw Xu Qi with tears streaming down his face, kneeling in front of Mei and touching her tummy, she replied in a cute and innocent way.

"Xu Qi...I'm pregnant too."

How can you relieve tension when you are nervous?

Of course, it's about meeting someone who is even more nervous than you.

That face, which had previously been unable to smile normally, revealed an incredibly bright smile after Ellie finished speaking, with tears welling in the corners of her eyes.

Xu Qi's mouth was wide open.

He may never have laughed so freely and happily since he was born.

And this laughter, just like Xu Qi's earlier tears, touched everyone present.

Eden breathed a sigh of relief. She stepped forward and squatted down, leaning against Xu Qi from behind.

"From now on, you are a father of two children. Xiaoqi, congratulations."

"Yes, I know, sister..."

That's amazing, Alicia.

Before he met her, his mind was a jumble of emotions—joy, relief, and confusion. He had never been a father and had no experience in this area.

So they might even feel afraid, or even terrified.

But at this moment, when he saw Alicia looking at him with a blank expression—Xu Qi…I’m pregnant too.

Xu Qi had only one thought in his mind.

He needs to be a good father, not only to Mei but also to Airi.

There will definitely be more girls getting pregnant in the future.

Having many children and grandchildren is certainly something that would be quite easy for me to achieve.

He wants to be a good father to every child.

Xu Qi's life goals have never been as clear as they are now—if his ideals were very firm when he joined ET.

It is about rebuilding the glory of Allahato.

At that moment, everything changed.

He must be a good father, and no one can change that.

Xu Qi stood up again, and anyone could sense that he had undergone many changes.

When they see Xu Qi like this, it's not just Mei or Alicia who are impressed.

Those who, like Xu Qi, were experiencing the uncertainty of becoming parents for the first time, were no longer confused.

Husbands and wives have always relied on each other.

That evening, to celebrate this joyous occasion, Qianjie, for once, brought out his personal menu, serving up all ten of his most signature dishes.

Despite the seriousness of the situation, everyone's lives continued as usual.

The difference might be...

Mei and Airi are like the giant pandas of the Golden Garden, so precious that everyone has to be careful around them.

But it's understandable, since they're both carrying Xu Qi's child right now, so they have to be careful to take care of them from now on.

Fortunately, there is not much to worry about regarding their physical condition.

That night, in Mei's room, Xu Qi would sometimes lie on Mei's stomach to listen, and sometimes on Airi's stomach to listen, a funny act that made the two of them laugh frequently.

"Alright, alright~~ It's only been a little over a week, how could we hear any noise..."

"Sigh... Give me a little hope, Ellie, and besides, I always feel like I can really hear it..."

Mei rolled her eyes. (The last line appears to be a fragment and doesn't translate directly. It's likely a typo or incomplete sentence.)

"You're so desperate for a baby. Sister Eden has already asked people to prepare the delivery room and the nursing room, saying that once they're ready, Ellie and I can stay there."

I don't think there's any need to rush, but nobody in the villa has experience in this area. Even Su had to consult her colleagues in the obstetrics and gynecology department.

Xu Qi got up. At this moment, both girls were sitting on Mei Yi's bed. Normally, he would have pounced on them long ago, but he couldn't now.

Su said that the first three months are especially important and that strenuous exercise should be avoided, which naturally means that one should not do that kind of thing.

"It's okay, if it doesn't work out, I'll bring my parents over. They're experienced. Oh right! I need to tell them about this soon, or they'll nag me."

"No rush. Besides, if Mom and Dad knew you had even slept with little girls like Celine and Theresa, they'd probably whip you first."

Xu Qi paused in his search for his phone, then looked at Mei with a sheepish expression.

"You knew all along..."

"Otherwise what? I noticed Theresa wasn't in a good mood as soon as I walked in. Even though we're pregnant, it's understandable that you're happy and your attention is on us."

But Theresa just had sex with you, so you should spend more time with her tonight.

That's why people say Mei has the aura of a mature woman.

At least, Alicia would never have imagined such a statement in her entire life.

She could only act like a mascot, her bright eyes glancing between Mei, Xu Qi, and her own child.

Xu Qi's eyes softened.

“You didn’t have to say all that, Mei…”

Xu Qi reached out and clasped Mei's fingers together.

Mei's already virtuous nature was even more evident at this moment.

"I'm already very happy that you've stayed with me until now, but with so many girls in the villa, if things get out of hand, it would be a real loss."

You, you still don't think things through sometimes.

She's not even old enough to get married yet, and she's still on a university campus.

But Mei's maturity is undoubtedly far beyond that of her peers.

Xu Qi smiled.

"I'll listen to you."

Alicia finally sensed something was wrong. Why did she feel like her only purpose here was to be an eye-catching, well-behaved baby?

Ellie wouldn't have it and kept pestering Xu Qi.

"Why are you so busy talking to Mei? I may not have thought of these things, but... I can help too! I'm closest to everyone in the villa!"

If anyone ever gets into a fight with someone, I'll go and make it up to them; no problem.

Mei turned her head away, her shoulders shaking, looking like she was trying not to laugh.

Xu Qi laughed heartily and pulled Ai Li into his arms.

Its chubby body is so comfortable to hold.

"Yes~~ My Ellie is the best."

Hehe~~

Seeing Xu Qi and Ai Li being all lovey-dovey together, Mei wasn't jealous. After having a child, her thoughts did change a bit.

Just as Xu Qi realizes, many girls in this family will one day bear his children. He will not only be a father to one child, but also the father of the entire family.

And Mei...

She is the matriarch of this family.

A first wife should have the demeanor and consideration of a first wife.

"Xu Qi, come with me to school tomorrow, I'm planning to..."

"Is it correct to apply for a leave of absence?"

The two looked at each other, and the feeling of mutual understanding between them was intoxicating.

However, Mei sighed when she thought about it.

"Now that's bad. I'll probably be seen as a delinquent by my teachers and classmates. I'm not even old enough to get married yet, and I already have a child. It's really not a good thing."

Xu Qi waved his hand.

"What do they know! Every family is different."

Mei smiled enigmatically. There are girls who get pregnant during their university years, but most of them didn't take proper precautions.

Both the boy and girl are students and neither is ready to be parents, so they have to pay the price for their foolish actions.

However, Mei is definitely an exception.

After all, both Xu Qi and Mei have achieved far more than their peers, and they are both well prepared. Most importantly, they are both able to take responsibility for their actions.

Even now, I still feel like it's all a dream.

Since learning she was pregnant, Mei's most frequent activity has been touching her belly.

"Me too……"

Xu Qi reached out and placed his hand on Mei Yi's slender hand.

I felt the rhythm of life within her womb together with her.

I used to hear my parents say that everything in my life would change after he was born.

At that time, Xu Qi couldn't understand the meaning of those words, but now...

He seemed to understand something.

"Mei, Airi, there are some things I'm sorry about, I've been hiding them from you all this time..."

Xu Qi's words startled Alicia, who was nestled in his arms. She couldn't understand why Xu Qi would make such a heavy statement in such a joyful atmosphere.

However, Mei seemed to have already guessed this.

She looked at Xu Qi with a complicated expression, listening quietly to what he had to say next.

"After the New Year, I might go to Europe. I never planned to take you with me; the situation there is too complicated and too dangerous."

And now... it's even more impossible to take you there.

Ugh?

Airi's eyes widened, while Mei lowered her gaze.

"Did we really have to tell you at this time...?"

“If I continue to keep this from you, I will be in so much pain that I can’t breathe… I don’t want to leave you at this time, especially to go to a place where my life is likely to be in danger.”

But some things can't be solved by simply avoiding the topic. The hidden dangers were never completely eliminated from the beginning; whether it was Destiny or Anti-Entropy, they both had their eyes on the Golden Courtyard.

For your safety, and for the sake of our family—

Xu Qi's words revealed an unprecedented seriousness.

"I must go to Europe to eliminate all potential risks."

……

There are still more than three months until the Chinese New Year.

Airi suddenly turned her head to look at Mei.
