After My Rebirth, I Escaped My Marriage

Chapter 867: Chapter 867: Emotional Turmoil, Unable to Stay Calm

Lin Gantang went to sleep early at night, while Wen Yanqing lay beside her.

Everything was as usual.

It was not until the middle of the night that Lin Gantang, half-awake, turned over and felt that the person next to her was too close. She wanted him to move over a bit, but when she turned her head, she found he was lying with his head on his arm, eyes wide open, watching her.

Lin Gantang got a shock.

Her sleepy voice was soft and muffled, “What are you doing, why aren’t you sleeping?”

“Can’t sleep.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Gantang immediately thought of the times he couldn’t sleep in the middle of the night when he was blind and asked anxiously, “Do you have a headache?”

In the dim night, Wen Yanqing shook his head, “No.”

“Are the cats’ parkour keeping you up?”

“No,” Wen Yanqing said, “I’m just too happy, got insomnia.”

Lin Gantang: …

She used her hand to cover his eyes, sternly told him to rest quickly, and had no idea if he eventually fell asleep or not, but he closed his eyes anyway.

When it was bright, and Lin Gantang got up, the person beside her had already gone to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

This time, Wen Yanqing didn’t say that he would stay home with her instead of going to the company. He asked her if she was going to the bookstore today, and upon learning that she would go there at noon, he told her to be careful and then left for work after they had breakfast together.

Lin Gantang then picked up her phone to tell Ye Qiuqiu the news of her pregnancy, since she was among those who had eagerly discussed how to conceive back in the day.

[You’re pregnant?] Ye Qiuqiu sent a string of congratulatory emojis, hehe twice: [Are you excited? Isn’t it true that words can’t describe how you feel?]

Lin Gantang: [We were mentally prepared after marriage, not particularly excited, just at ease to give birth.]

[Are you happy?] asked Ye Qiuqiu again.

Lin Gantang smiled, [Of course, I’m happy.]

Ye Qiuqiu expressed her sentiment, [You have such a great attitude. I was a bit anxious when I was pregnant with Qianqian because Chen Haobo and I were planning to focus on our careers first, and we didn’t expect the baby to come first.]

[Chen Haobo was thrilled when he found out, and after thinking it over, I thought, let’s just have it.] Ye Qiuqiu couldn’t help asking, [Yanqing must be very happy to know you’re pregnant, right?]

Lin Gantang replied, [He was so happy that he stayed up in the middle of the night, eyes wide open watching me, which scared me.]

Ye Qiuqiu laughed heartily, [Your husband acts composed, but he’s actually overwhelmed with emotion and can’t keep calm.]

She added thoughtfully, [I understand. It’s a very happy thing for the person you love to be willing to bear and raise children for you.]

Ye Qiuqiu was happy for her friend.

Happiness didn’t come easy. Ye Qiuqiu couldn’t imagine what it would be like if the stubborn Lin Gantang had married the cold Gu Zhichuan. It probably wouldn’t be like now where every time she saw her, Lin Gantang’s eyes shone with brightness, not dimmed in the slightest by life’s hardships.

And Wen Yanqing cherished her, receiving love in return from her.

In Ye Qiuqiu’s opinion, this was indeed the best outcome.

Just then, Chen Haobo came in holding their child. Ye Qiuqiu put down her phone and stretched out her hands to take the baby, “I’m full now. You’ve finally got a day off. Weren’t you going to meet up with your old classmates to have fun for the day? Get ready and head out.”

Chen Haobo handed over the child but didn’t leave; instead, he picked up the leftover bread she was eating and finished it in one bite, saying, “I’m not going anymore. After giving it some thought, I’d rather stay home with you and Qianqian. How about we take Qianqian to the baby swimming pool this afternoon, then go shopping with you?”

Upon hearing this, Ye Qiuqiu’s eyebrows lit up with joy, “That sounds great.”

Ye Qiuqiu put the child on the bed, and the next moment Qianqian rolled over onto her stomach, kicking her little feet, but without enough strength to crawl.

Qianqian had learned to roll over early, and her gross motor development was excellent. It was estimated that she’d be able to sit in another month or two.

Ye Qiuqiu noticed a wet spot on her daughter’s collar. Qianqian hadn’t started teething and drooling, so why was it wet? Upon closer inspection, it was clearly the residue of porridge.

Ye Qiuqiu’s smile slowly faded.
