After that day, Su Rou had no news of Jiang Ling. Actually, it wasn't intentional. She simply had no other thoughts to spare for Jiang Ling.
Changing Xiao Yichen's diapers took up a great deal of her time every day. "Miss, let me change the diaper," Sister Wang said.
"I'm almost done." Kids were really hard to take care of. If they were unhappy, they would cry their hearts out. It was so noisy!
"If you weren't my own child, I'd really like to throw you out..." Su Rou murmured softly while dressing Xiao Yichen.
Sister Wang covered her mouth and snickered. "So, let me do it."
"Done!" Su Rou put Xiao Yichen on the bed and looked at him for a while. "Anyway, it doesn't take long to change a diaper."
Xiao Yichen was lying in his crib, waving his limbs. He was so soft and cute lying there. However... just thinking of his devilish cries, Su Rou couldn't help rolling her eyes.
"Miss, it's time for lunch," Sister Wang said.
Su Rou looked at her stomach. "I don't want to eat."
Sister Wang seemed to understand what Su Rou was thinking. She reached out her hand and pulled Su Rou outside. "Don't think about losing weight. Come on, go have lunch with me."
Su Rou was dragged out. Before she could react, she was already sitting at the dining table. "...Sister Wang, you've cooked so many delicious dishes again."
Although she said she wanted to lose weight, in fact, as soon as she saw these delicious foods, she couldn't resist. It was better to be natural.
...
When Su Yuze got home from work, he saw Su Rou lying on the sofa with Xiao Yichen in her arms. Both mother and son were asleep. Su Rou was lying on the outside to prevent Xiao Yichen from falling off.
Every time he got home and saw these two people waiting for him at home, he always felt a sense of satisfaction.
"Master, you're home so early today," Sister Wang said with a smile. "Miss and Young Master are sleeping."
"Yeah. You don't need to prepare dinner today. I'm going to take Xiaorourou out to eat," Su Yuze said.
"Eh?" Sister Wang was stunned for a moment. As if she had sensed something, she immediately said, "I understand."
"Yeah. Then I'll leave Young Master to your care," Su Yuze said. Obviously, he wasn't going to take Su Yichen with them this time.
Sister Wang smiled. It seemed so. "Okay, I understand."
Su Yuze walked to the edge of the sofa. Making sure not to wake up Su Yichen, he gently called Su Rou, "Wake up."
However, since Su Rou got pregnant, she had been sleeping more soundly. Su Yuze called her several times but couldn't wake her up. There was no other way. He had to take a simple and straightforward approach. Su Yuze leaned over, picked up Su Rou horizontally, and walked straight to the second floor.
Su Yichen didn't know if he was woken up or just woke up naturally. He opened his big round eyes and looked at the empty space beside him. Somehow, he pouted his little mouth, looking like he was about to cry. Sister Wang immediately picked him up. "Don't cry. Mommy and Daddy have something important to do today. Little Chenchen should be happy for them."
However, Xiao Yichen didn't understand her words. He opened his little mouth and cried.
Su Yuze and Su Rou, who had changed their clothes upstairs, walked downstairs and heard this earth - shattering cry. Su Rou rubbed her forehead. "Here it goes again!"
"Forget it. Don't mind him. He'll stop crying when he's tired," Su Yuze said. It wasn't that he didn't like this child, but he thought that since Xiaorourou had risked her life to give birth to him, Xiao Yichen should be grateful instead of being so troublesome!
"Maybe we should take him with us," Su Rou said. Xiao Yichen was usually quite well - behaved. As long as he was held, he wouldn't cry.
"Leave him at home. Sister Wang will take care of him. It's okay," Su Yuze said.
"Yes, yes. Miss, you can go out with confidence. I'll take care of him," Sister Wang said, smiling as she pushed them out of the door.
Su Rou was a bit confused. "Why is she so happy?"
"Who knows."
...
The restaurant Su Yuze had booked was a French restaurant. There was no one inside, but there was a romantic candlelit dinner. "Why is there no one here?" Su Rou asked. Wasn't this the peak dining time?
"Maybe it's about to go bankrupt," Su Yuze said indifferently, then led Su Rou to a table.
"You brought me to a restaurant that's about to go bankrupt?" Su Rou said, showing a bit of disgust.
Su Yuze just smiled faintly and didn't say much.
A waiter came over with a bouquet of flowers. "Miss, this is for you."
"Ah..." Su Rou took the flowers blankly, not quite understanding why she would receive flowers just for having a meal.
The waiter left with a smile. Su Rou looked at the bouquet. Her hand accidentally touched something at the bottom. Suddenly, a heart popped out from the top of the bouquet, with the words "I love you" written on it.
"This..." Su Rou looked at Su Yuze sitting opposite her. She seemed to vaguely sense something.
Su Yuze snapped his fingers slightly. Petals and a few white feathers began to flutter down in the dim restaurant.
This atmosphere... it looked like...
Su Yuze slowly stood up, walked in front of Su Rou, and then slowly knelt down. To be more precise, he knelt on one knee. While Su Rou was still in a daze, she saw Su Yuze take out a small box from his trouser pocket. He opened the box, and there was a beautifully crafted ring inside. It was in the shape of a transparent teardrop, just like the beauty mark at the corner of her eye. Under the candlelight, the transparent teardrop seemed to be shining, looking very alluring.
"Xiaorourou, I'll put it on for you," Su Yuze said and was about to take out the ring.
Su Rou was a bit touched. She reached out her hand. "You're just putting it on me without asking if I'm willing?"
Su Yuze raised his eyebrows. "Do I need to ask? You've already given birth to my child. Do you want to back out?"
"...Well, you're right."
Su Yuze put the ring on Su Rou's finger. It was just the right size. "Now, it's all proper."
At this time, a man jumped out from the side and said unhappily, "Young Master Yu, this is so lacking in romance!" Forcing someone to wear a ring. It was too... domineering!
"Exactly. Boss Su, this won't do!" They had been waiting to shout "Marry him!" But now they didn't even get a chance to show up!
Su Yuze gave them a cold look. "The process doesn't matter." The result was what was important.
"Damn it! Poor Baby Rou!"
Su Rou stroked the teardrop - shaped ring lovingly. "No. I like it very much." The ring was so beautiful.
"..." Right. Anyway, they already had a child. Naturally, she wouldn't care about the proposal process. "Alright..."
Xiao Yun and Yu Fei both sighed. But after all, this was a happy day. The two girls raised big smiles. "Congratulations!"
