Tang Yuansi slowly opened his eyes when he heard the well-distributed sounds of snoring sounding beside his ears.

He cast a sideways glance at her.

Shangxin had fallen asleep.

She had subconsciously tilted her head towards him. With her face resting against his shoulder, she looked extremely obedient as she slept.

Her long hair hung down and covered her face.

A few strands of her hair had brushed up to her nose; it seemed to be a little itchy for her as she kept her lips pouted during her sleep.

Tang Yuansi’s gaze became gentle.

Reaching out his slender fingers, he helped her to push the strands of hair aside…

Then, instinctively, he drew her into his embrace so that she could have a more comfortable sleep.

Shangxin woke up right after the car arrived at the Tang Family villa.

As she yawned gracefully, she asked with a confused look, “Are we home already?”

Tang Yuansi heard her stomach growling and asked, “Yes, are you hungry?”

Shangxin replied, “A little, I was so happy during the shoot at noon that I did not eat much. But now, I’m feeling so hungry that my stomach is growling. It would be utter bliss if there was a table of food prepared for me the moment I got home!”

Tang Yuansi laughed gently and stroked the tip of her nose with his long fingers. “What’s so difficult about this? The butler is waiting for you to get home for your meal.”

Shangxin stared blankly.

She blinked her eyes in confusion.

The assistant, who was driving, kindly explained to her, “President Tang knew that Miss Shangxin had not eaten much at noon and that you would surely be hungry when you woke up from your sleep. When we were on the way home just now, he called the butler and instructed him to prepare dinner.”

When Shangxin heard this, she blinked her eyes and suddenly planted a kiss beside Tang Yuansi’s lips.

“A reward for you!”

“…”

Tang Yuansi’s eyes deepened.

Just when he was about to kiss her, Shangxin pointed excitedly at the entrance of the Tang Family villa and asked, “Isn’t that Xiao Mumu and Young Master Han? Or am I so hungry that I am hallucinating?”

Tang Yuansi followed the direction of her finger and glanced over.

Indeed, two people had arrived before them and were standing outside the Tang Family villa.

They were Yu Yuehan and Nian Xiaomu.

They must have got out of the car not long ago and just happened to bump into them returning home when they were about to enter the Tang Family villa.

The four of them met at the entrance.

“Xiao Mumu!”

The moment the car came to a stop, Shangxin flung open the car door and ran out.

As she was pregnant, Tang Yuansi was worried about her wellbeing and swiftly caught up with her.

Even though the weather had turned warmer, it was very dusty outside. As such, Tang Yuansi pulled the overly joyous Shangxin and gestured to her to get indoors first.

“When did you guys return? And why didn’t you let me know in advance? I thought that my eyes were playing tricks on me when I saw you both standing at the entrance just now.” As Shangxin pulled Nian Xiaomu along with her, they left the two men behind and walked directly to the dining room.

She was pregnant and dared not starve herself.

Nian Xiaomu just happened to be hungry as well.

As such, the two ladies hit it off immediately.

They abandoned the two men and had their meals first.

There was a pregnant lady and there was a patient in the Tang Family villa.

Even though the dishes that the butler had prepared were exquisite and nutritious, they tasted a little bland.

Nian Xiaomu placed her chopsticks down after having a few mouthfuls of food. Seeing that there were only the two of them in the dining room, she could not help it and asked in a lowered voice, “What happened? Did Tang Yuansi throw a temper tantrum and insist on getting discharged from the hospital? Why didn’t you stop him?”

She asked a few questions at one go.

Shangxin was taken aback.

Immediately, she swallowed the meat in her mouth and smiled in reply, “It wasn’t his issue this time around, I was the one who allowed him to be discharged.”

Nian Xiaomu stared blankly.

Shangxin sipped two mouthfuls of soup to calm herself down.

She knew that Nian Xiaomu was worried about her and did not hide things from her.

“The doctor told me to ask if he had anything that he had wanted to do and to accompany him as much as possible. He might not have much time left…”
