Chapter 798: Joyous News

At night, when Helian Niancheng returned, Gu Qingjiu had already finished dinner.

She was lying on the bed and looking at her phone. At the sight of Helian Niancheng, she cast a sideways glance at him.

Helian Niancheng didn’t detect anything different when he came back.

When he walked over, Gu Qingjiu went up to circle her arms around his waist. “Hubby, I wanna tell you something.”

Due to her pregnancy, she felt that her voice was more cloying than usual.

She also seemed more dependent on Helian Niancheng than usual.

“Mm? What is it?”

Helian Niancheng turned around to hug Gu Qingjiu and kiss her freshly shampooed hair that exuded a fragrance. “Why are you so clingy today?”

Despite that, he felt pleased. He liked such a clingy Gu Qingjiu.

“I…”

Gu Qingjiu curled her lips. Although she had wanted to tease him a little, she still ended up telling him directly. “I’m pregnant!”

“…”

The person hugging her halted. Then in his usual calm tone, he said, “You’re not lying?”

Gu Qingjiu replied, displeased, “How could I possibly deceive you in something like this?”

She had just finished speaking when someone pinned her on the bed.

There was an indescribable, fiery flame in that pair of eyes that usually appeared aloof and n.o.ble. “In that case, I won’t mess around with you for now. Have a good rest.”

Gu Qingjiu was speechless.

Helian Niancheng’s response was unexpectedly calm.

Did this man not feel worked up after learning that he was about to become a father?

But following that, Gu Qingjiu knew the answer. How could he not feel worked up? Of course, he felt worked up.

But Chief Instructor was a person who expressed it differently from others even when he felt worked up.

He seemed to feel that Gu Qingjiu being pregnant was a dangerous matter. Usually, in the middle of the night, Gu Qingjiu only had to roll over, and he would be startled awake. He would then hug her in his arms before he could sleep in peace. Hence, he now slept in separate beds with Gu Qingjiu.

And when he would hug Gu Qingjiu, he would do so very carefully, unlike how he hugged her without qualms in the past.

Such a situation made Hilda laugh secretly. “Qingjiu’s body condition is different from others. As a soldier, her body condition is excellent, to begin with. Even if it is dangerous in the first three months, it’s not a big issue. Why are you feeling so nervous?”

Surely Hilda could tell if her son was nervous or not?

However, Helian Niancheng continued doing as he pleased.

But due to the suddenness of it all, Gu Qingjiu had yet to inform her parents.

She planned to tell them when they came over, to give them a surprise.

Over this period, Helian Niancheng and the others treated Gu Qingjiu especially carefully. He even forbade the kids from looking for Gu Qingjiu to play now.

From then onwards, Gu Qingjiu started living the life of an empress dowager. This made her feel a little gloomy.

It was like they felt she couldn’t lift or carry anything by herself now.

Lu Ziyang also found out about this.

Although Gu Qingjiu didn’t tell him, he had other means of finding out.

He merely sent her a text message with a sigh:

Take good care of your child over these two years.

After all, Gu Qingjiu had just agreed to join the Ninth Bureau. Now that she got pregnant, her priority was definitely to take care of the child.

Gu Qingjiu laughed helplessly. Although the baby came suddenly, Gu Qingjiu’s priority was her child.

Under such cautious antic.i.p.ation, nearing the wedding day, Gu Qingjiu’s family from China were gradually fetched over to Penalan.

Firstly, there were Gu Qingjiu’s parents. Gu Qingjiu directly gave them a surprise as soon as they arrived.
