On this ordinary yet special day when Jiang Ciyou was five months pregnant, Lu Jingchen turned down all important meetings at the company and drove her to the hospital for a prenatal checkup. Along the way, he held the steering wheel tightly with both hands, his knuckles slightly whitened due to the force, but his eyes looked at Jiang Ciyou in the back seat through the rearview mirror from time to time, and he kept muttering: "Wife, if you are tired, just lean back and take a nap, I will call you when we get to the hospital." Jiang Ciyou looked at his nervous look and couldn't help but smile: "I'm not a porcelain doll, I'm just going for a prenatal checkup, don't be too nervous." Although she said so, her heart was full of sweetness, she knew that Lu Jingchen regarded her and the child in her belly as the most precious treasures in the world.

People were coming and going in the hospital. Lu Jingchen carefully helped Jiang Ciyou to shuttle between the various departments, fearing that others would accidentally bump into her. Every time he arrived at a place, he would rush to communicate with the medical staff. His serious and persistent look attracted many people's attention. Finally, it was Jiang Ciyou's turn to enter the ultrasound examination room. Lu Jingchen wanted to go in with her, but was stopped by the nurse outside the door: "Family members, please wait outside for a while. The space inside is small and it is inconvenient to operate with too many people." He looked reluctant, looked back every few steps, and kept reminding Jiang Ciyou: "If you feel uncomfortable, just call me."

Jiang Ciyou was lying on the examination bed, watching the doctor move the instrument on her slightly bulging belly, feeling a little nervous. On the one hand, she was looking forward to knowing the baby's condition, but on the other hand, she was afraid of hearing bad news. Time seemed to stand still at this moment, with only the slight buzzing sound of the instrument echoing in her ears. After a long time, the doctor smiled and said softly while looking at the screen: "The baby is very healthy and developing well." Jiang Ciyou just breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the doctor continue: "And, it's a little princess."

At that moment, Jiang Ciyou felt as if her heart was filled with a warm light, and her eyes were unconsciously moist. A little girl in a pink skirt and pigtails instantly appeared in her mind, and she imagined that she would call her parents in a baby voice and play around them. Before she could recover from this joy, she heard a noise coming from outside the examination room.

It turned out that Lu Jingchen was waiting at the door anxiously, pacing back and forth. A kind old man next to him saw that he was anxious, so he talked to him: "Young man, don't be too anxious, they are checking inside, everything must be fine." Lu Jingchen forced a smile and responded, but his eyes were always fixed on the closed door. Suddenly, the door opened, and before Jiang Ciyou could say anything, Lu Jingchen rushed up, holding her shoulders with both hands, his eyes full of anxiety and concern: "How is it? Is the baby okay? Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Jiang Ciyou looked at him like this, smiled and joked: "You asked so many questions at once, which one should I answer first?" As she said that, she gently pulled Lu Jingchen's hand, put it on her belly, and said softly: "We are going to have a little princess."

Lu Jingchen froze in an instant, his eyes wide open, as if he couldn't believe his ears. The next second, he reacted suddenly, and the expression on his face instantly changed from astonishment to ecstasy. "Really? It's a girl!" His voice trembled a little because of excitement, and the volume unconsciously increased a lot, attracting kind glances from the people around. Before Jiang Ciyou could say anything else, Lu Jingchen suddenly picked her up without warning and spun her around.

Jiang Ciyou exclaimed, and subconsciously put her arms around his neck: "Be careful, don't drop me and the baby." But Lu Jingchen seemed to have heard nothing, immersed in great joy. He turned several times before stopping, and put Jiang Ciyou steadily back on the ground, but his hands were still tightly holding her, as if she would disappear if he let go. He buried his head in Jiang Ciyou's neck, and his voice was a little tearful: "Wife, thank you for giving me such a big surprise. I will definitely spoil our little princess into the happiest child in the world." Jiang Ciyou patted his back gently, feeling his pounding heartbeat, and said with a smile: "Look at you, you are almost more excited than me."

The two of them walked out of the hospital hand in hand. Lu Jingchen seemed to be walking on clouds all the way, and his steps were unusually brisk. When he arrived at the parking lot, he was about to help Jiang Ciyou open the car door, but suddenly he seemed to remember something and turned around and ran back to the hospital building. Jiang Ciyou called out to him from behind: "Where are you going?" Lu Jingchen shouted without turning his head: "I'm going to ask the doctor if there is anything else I should pay attention to. You wait here for a while."

Not long after, Lu Jingchen ran back panting, holding a stack of information in his hand and a satisfied smile on his face: "I have asked everything clearly. The doctor said that in the next few months, you should pay more attention to balanced nutrition and exercise properly. Don't worry, wife, I will take good care of you and the baby." As he said that, he carefully helped Jiang Ciyou into the car, and carefully helped her fasten her seat belt. Then he walked around to the driver's seat and started the car.

On the way home, Lu Jingchen kept talking, talking about what name he would give his daughter, and how many beautiful dresses he would prepare for her. "I think the name should be nice and meaningful, and it would be best if it has something to do with both of us." He said excitedly while driving, "How about calling her Lu Nianyou? Thinking of you, I also hope that her future life will be leisurely and carefree. What do you think?" Jiang Ciyou smiled and nodded: "Any name you choose is good, I'll follow your advice." Lu Jingchen got the affirmation and became even more interested: "Also, I just thought about it on the way. We have to build a children's room for her and decorate it in the style of a princess room. Pink walls, a white European carved bed, and a pink princess mosquito net, it must be very dreamy."

Jiang Ciyou listened to his endless plans, her heart full of happiness. She turned her head to look at Lu Jingchen's profile as he focused on driving. The sunlight shone through the car window on his face, outlining his deep contours. She couldn't help but think of the bits and pieces of their journey. Once, she was betrayed on her wedding night and was full of despair, thinking that her life would fall into darkness. But fate made her meet Lu Jingchen, the man who was used as a tool for revenge at the beginning, but used his sincerity to melt the ice in her heart little by little, accompanied her through countless storms, and now they are about to welcome the fruit of their love.

The car slowly drove into the garage at home. Lu Jingchen got out first, jogging to the passenger seat, and carefully helped Jiang Ciyou get out of the car. As soon as he entered the house, Lu Jingchen couldn't wait to pull Jiang Ciyou to sit on the sofa, then took out a tablet from the drawer of the coffee table and opened a decoration design software. "Wife, come and have a look. These are some princess room design drawings I collected before. Let's pick them and decorate them according to the ones we like." Jiang Ciyou leaned over to take a look, and saw that the screen was full of various exquisite princess room pictures, mainly pink, with various cute decorative elements, including fairy tale castle-shaped bookshelves, cloud-shaped chandeliers, and fluffy pink carpets.

While sliding the screen, Lu Jingchen pointed at the pictures and introduced them to Jiang Ciyou: "The background wall of the bedside in this room is designed as a huge fairy tale mural, which feels very dreamy. The little princess will definitely like it. And this one, the wardrobe is made to look like a castle door. When you open it, it is full of small grids for clothes, which is very convenient for classification and storage." Jiang Ciyou looked at these designs, as if she had seen the scene of her daughter playing happily in the future room. She smiled and said to Lu Jingchen: "These are so beautiful, but we don't have to rush, there are still several months." Lu Jingchen said seriously: "That won't work. We have to prepare it in advance. I want our little princess to live in the most perfect room as soon as she is born."

As he spoke, Lu Jingchen picked up his phone again and started calling a designer friend he knew: "Hello, Lao Zhang, this is Lu Jingchen. Let me tell you, my wife is pregnant with a daughter, and I would like you to help me design a top-notch princess room. Yes, it must be the most luxurious and dreamy one. Money is not a problem, as long as you can make my daughter happy." After hanging up the phone, he turned to Jiang Ciyou and said, "Lao Zhang is an expert in this field. The house he designs will surely satisfy us. Wife, just wait and see, our daughter will definitely be the happiest little princess in the world in the future."

Jiang Ciyou watched Lu Jingchen busying around, feeling a lot of emotion in her heart. The man who used to be so daunting in the business world has now become so gentle and careful in front of her and her child, full of enthusiasm and expectation like a big boy. She knows that for this family and for their upcoming daughter, Lu Jingchen is willing to give everything. And she will stay by their side and write their happy chapter together.

The afternoon sun shone through the window into the living room. Lu Jingchen pulled Jiang Ciyou to lean on the sofa. His hand gently rested on Jiang Ciyou's belly, as if communicating with his daughter in her belly. Jiang Ciyou closed her eyes slightly, enjoying this moment of tranquility and warmth. Suddenly, Lu Jingchen seemed to have thought of something and patted his thigh lightly: "Oh, I almost forgot, we still have to prepare some early education things for our daughter. I heard that children nowadays have to develop various interests and hobbies from a very young age, so as not to lose at the starting line."

As he spoke, he picked up his phone and began to search for various early childhood education courses and toys. "This music enlightenment course is good. It can cultivate my daughter's musical cells from an early age. Maybe she can become a great musician in the future. And this educational building block can train her hands-on ability and thinking ability." Lu Jingchen looked at it and muttered, and soon he placed an order to buy a lot of things. Jiang Ciyou looked at the early childhood education supplies piled up in the shopping cart and said with a smile: "You are too impatient. The child is not born yet, and you buy so many things." Lu Jingchen disagreed: "What's the matter? It's always good to prepare early. I want our daughter to be exposed to the best things from an early age and enjoy the best education."

Unconsciously, the sun gradually set, and a beautiful sunset glow appeared on the horizon. Lu Jingchen got up and walked into the kitchen, put on an apron, and began to prepare dinner for Jiang Ciyou. He hummed a little tune while skillfully cutting and cooking vegetables. After a while, the kitchen was filled with tempting aromas. Jiang Ciyou walked to the kitchen door, looked at Lu Jingchen's busy back, and her heart was full of emotion. She whispered, "Jingchen, thank you, I am really happy today." Lu Jingchen looked back at her, his face filled with a happy smile: "Silly, this is what I should do. You and my daughter are the most precious treasures in my life. As long as you are happy, I am willing to do anything."

After dinner, Lu Jingchen took Jiang Ciyou for a walk in the yard. The flowers in the yard looked particularly beautiful under the sunset, and the breeze blew gently, bringing bursts of floral fragrance. Lu Jingchen supported Jiang Ciyou and walked slowly, discussing his daughter's future life with her from time to time. "When our daughter grows up, we will take her out for a trip every year to let her see the outside world. Go to Paris to see the Eiffel Tower, go to Venice to ride a gondola, and go to Japan to see cherry blossoms." Jiang Ciyou listened to his beautiful plan, smiled and nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

The night gradually fell, and the sky was dotted with stars. Lu Jingchen helped Jiang Ciyou back to the bedroom, covered her with a blanket, and gently kissed her forehead: "Wife, you should go to bed early. You have been tired all day." Jiang Ciyou held his hand: "You should go to bed early too, and don't stay up late to read those parenting materials." Lu Jingchen smiled and nodded: "I know, I will wait until you fall asleep before I go to bed." After that, he sat on the bed and gently stroked Jiang Ciyou's hair until she fell asleep.

Lu Jingchen looked at Jiang Ciyou's sleeping face, his heart full of tenderness. He knew that from the moment he learned the gender of his daughter, their lives would open a new chapter. He secretly vowed to use all his strength to protect this family and make Jiang Ciyou and his daughter happy forever. Outside the window, the moonlight was like water, sprinkling in the room, as if it was also sending the best wishes to this upcoming little life.
