Chapter 42: Morning Sickness

Rong Bo, the fearsome dragon, fought against ten opponents single - handedly and successfully reclaimed his treasure—me. He returned in triumph.

It wasn't convenient to talk when there were so many people around just now.

Now that we're back home, the two of us, husband and wife, shut the door and have a good chat.

Me: "Tell me, what other surprises do you have that I don't know about?"

Rong Bo: "I tipped you during your livestream."

I burst out laughing: "Really? There are so many fans who tip me. What's your ID?"

Rong Bo: "I can't tell you."

I pinched the ticklish flesh on his waist, but he remained unmoved. I pretended to be serious: "Just now, grandma said that the most important thing between husband and wife is trust. What's our relationship? How can we still have secrets?"

After hesitating for a while, Rong Bo finally opened the livestream app and showed me his ID name—

[Life is meaningless if I can't sleep with Xing Zai]

Me: "Hahaha I thought it was some stupid and rich fan with no brains..."

Rong Bo got angry: "Stop laughing."

Then he pounced on me and gave me a "punishment of love", kissing me until I begged for mercy and promised never to mention it again.

Rong Bo leaned against the bed, and I lay on his chest: "Since you like me so much, why were you so cold to me at first?"

Rong Bo stroked my hair and said, "I was trying to restrain myself."

Me: "Then why couldn't you restrain yourself later?"

Rong Bo: "As time went by, I developed feelings and became greedy."

Me: "..."

I was a bit touched.

Rong Bo: "I clearly liked you so much, but I had to pretend to be cold. Every time I saw your embarrassed and disappointed expression when you encountered setbacks, I was also in great pain."

Well, I softened a little bit: "You asked for it. You could have just told me your identity and purpose from the start..."

Rong Bo countered: "When hunting, if the hunter exposes himself early and shows his gun, what will the prey do?"

Me: "It will definitely run away."

Rong Bo: "So I had to disguise myself and keep adding more bait. I waited for you to step into the trap I had planned step by step. When the time was right, I would capture you all at once—"

As he said this, he suddenly hugged me tightly like a big tiger, scaring me into screaming: "Ahhh—"

He gently bit my neck, licked it, and finished his sentence: "And eat you up to the bones."

Well.

I finally understood that I was just a wild boar who thought I was smart.

Unconsciously, I was lured by the hunter's trap and willingly fell into the trap of marriage.

Rong Bo sincerely said: "All I've done is to present Xing Zai with a way of life that I think is happier. I'm a rather domineering fan. I think I have the ability to make you happier, so I recommended myself. Even now, I still feel that I'm still on probation. Maybe one day, after you've tried marriage and find it's not suitable for you, and this kind of happiness isn't what you're after, and you want freedom, I'll still bless you."

He looked up at the starry sky outside the window. "At least, I kissed the star briefly and then let her go back to the starry sky to shine again."

I was extremely touched. I leaned over and kissed him: "The starry sky is too cold and lonely. Husband's embrace is the warmest."

The two of us were being all lovey - dovey, but unfortunately, the terrible pregnancy symptoms started.

I felt dizzy, nauseous, and wanted to vomit every morning when I got up...

When I had breakfast, I vomited last night's dinner. When I had lunch, I vomited breakfast. When I had dinner, I vomited everything I ate during the day... It was a never - ending cycle.

When I was so dizzy from vomiting that I saw stars, I regretted it so much. "Why did I want to get married? Wuwuwu..."

Rong Bo was so scared that he didn't even dare to go to work. He carefully took care of me at home, but it was no use.

It was just that I had someone to take my anger out on when I cried from vomiting.

I went to my parents' house for a meal. I had no appetite for all the dishes I used to like. Poor mom had put so much effort into cooking the dishes so beautifully, but I only took a few bites and stopped.

My mom scolded me: "Don't be so delicate. For the sake of the baby, force yourself to eat. I still had to go to work when I was pregnant with you. I ate and vomited, vomited and ate again. A mother has to be stronger!"

It made me seem like I was being unreasonable and deliberately acting coquettishly because I had my husband's favor. I was so aggrieved that tears streamed down my face.

Rong Bo felt so heart - broken that he even dared to talk back to his mother - in - law: "Mom, doesn't Xing Zai want to eat? She's already feeling so bad. You can't talk to her like that."

My mom stared at the two lovey - dovey newlyweds and simply said one word: "Get out."

Just like that, we were blacklisted by my parents' family.

Rong Bo comforted me: "It's okay, wife. If there's no food at your parents' house, there's food at my parents' house."

When we got to his parents' house, my mother - in - law was extremely excited and insisted on cooking herself. She said she was going to cook delicious food for her daughter - in - law and grandson.

Me: Fuck.

Rong Bo and his father tried to persuade her, but it was no use.

There was a whole table of green Thai salads. It made my head look green!

Rong Bo simply didn't even pick up his chopsticks and said: "I'm full from my mother - in - law's house."

My mother - in - law: "But that was lunch."

Rong Bo: "I ate dinner's portion too."

My father - in - law remained calm, silently ate the salad, and made a creepy "crunch crunch" sound.

As a meat - eater, I didn't dare to go against my mother - in - law's kindness. Looking at the colorful lemons, carrots, and bitter melons on the plate... I thought I should be able to eat it.

My stomach was burning. Eating some refreshing, sweet and spicy Thai salad would be just right, right?

As a result, when I took a forkful, I stabbed a shrimp.

Looking at the white, quivering transparent shrimp meat, I couldn't help but question: "Is this shrimp..."

My mother - in - law said proudly: "Raw!"

Me: "Ugh—"

My father - in - law could no longer pretend. "It seems a bit fishy to eat it raw, wife."

My mother - in - law: "..."

My mother - in - law was indeed the mistress of a wealthy family. She was so generous. My mom just said one word "Get out", but she said three words: "Get out, get out, get out!"

The two of us slunk away and finally ended up at grandma's house.

When grandma saw us, she laughed so hard that she bent over. "They have no experience at all. They're all just making a mess!"

Then she went to the kitchen herself, took out a small milk pot, and cooked a bowl of soft, warm vegetable porridge with green vegetables and rice.

When she brought it up, there was a little bit of pickled vegetables on top of the porridge.

I said with a look of disgust: "Grandma, this is what patients eat, right?"

Grandma: "Don't listen to people saying that pregnant women aren't patients and they have to be tough for the sake of the baby. Why aren't pregnant women patients? They actually need more considerate care, as well as spiritual care and love. During this special period, acting coquettishly is a woman's right."

I was so touched that my eyes welled up with tears: "Baby~"

Grandma: "Try it."

Then she fed me a spoonful of the porridge after blowing it cool, just like feeding a baby who hadn't grown up yet. "Open your mouth, ah—"

I timidly took it into my mouth...

Huh?

It melted in my mouth.

The taste of the rice was very simple, and the smell of the pickled vegetables was refreshing!

After I ate two mouthfuls from grandma's hand, I couldn't wait to grab the bowl and ate it up quickly.

Rong Bo let out a sigh of relief: "Grandma."

Grandma said with a smile: "Hm?"

Rong Bo: "From today on, we'll stay at your place."
