The engagement is over, but the black-bellied president won't let go

"Yi Chen, Qiao Chu, it's getting late. You should take Chenchen back and be careful on the road." Qin Lan said reluctantly, her eyes always staying on Chenchen's cute little face.

"Okay, Mom, Dad, we're leaving now. You should also go to bed early." Xiao Yichen and Qiao Chu took Chenchen to say goodbye to the two elders.

Walking out of the house, the cool evening breeze blew gently. Chenchen was already a little sleepy, her little head resting on Xiao Yichen's shoulder, and soon she began to breathe evenly. Xiao Yichen carefully adjusted his posture so that his daughter could sleep more peacefully. Qiao Chu stood by and gently tidied up Chenchen's messy hair.

The moonlight was like water, sprinkling on them and casting long shadows. The figures of this family of three looked particularly warm in the moonlight.

"Honey, I'm so happy today." Qiao Chu said softly, with satisfaction and happiness in her voice.

"Yes, we are very happy with the support and love of our parents. Qiao Chu, thank you." Xiao Yichen said affectionately, his gaze moved from Chenchen to Qiao Chu's face, his eyes full of love.

After returning home, Xiao Yichen gently put Chenchen on the bed, his movements were as gentle as if he was treating a rare treasure. He carefully pulled the quilt over Chenchen and gently kissed her forehead.

Qiao Chu leaned on the bed, staring at her daughter's peaceful sleeping face without blinking. The moonlight shone through the window onto Chenchen's face. Her eyelashes cast a faint shadow on her face. Her little mouth pouted slightly, and she looked very cute. Qiao Chu's heart was filled with tenderness. She couldn't help but reach out and gently touch Chenchen's face, feeling her delicate skin.

Xiao Yichen walked behind Qiao Chu, put his arms around her waist, and gently placed his chin on her shoulder. "Dear, our daughter is so cute." He whispered in Qiao Chu's ear.

Qiao Chu tilted her head slightly and leaned into Xiao Yichen's arms, "Yes, looking at her, I feel that everything is so beautiful."

Xiao Yichen gently turned Qiao Chu's body so that she faced him. He held Qiao Chu's face with both hands, his eyes affectionate and focused. "Qiao Chu, you have worked hard these years. You have paid too much for this family and for the children."

Tears welled up in Qiao Chu's eyes. "It's not hard. As long as our family is together, everything is worth it."

Xiao Yichen's lips gently touched Qiao Chu's forehead, then slowly moved to her eyes, nose, and finally landed on her lips. This kiss was gentle and long, full of affection and gratitude for each other.

After a long time, Xiao Yichen let go of Qiao Chu, looked at her slightly swollen lips, and smiled, "Wife, I love you."

Qiao Chu's face flushed, "I love you too."

They stood beside the bed hugging each other, looking at the sleeping Chenchen, their hearts filled with anticipation and longing for the future.

"Once this little guy in your belly is born, our home will be more lively." Xiao Yichen gently stroked Qiao Chu's bulging belly.

Qiao Chu smiled happily, "Well, I don't know if it's a boy or a girl. You are in the hospital, can you find a doctor to check the gender?"

"It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter whether it's a boy or a girl, as long as they are healthy." Xiao Yichen said.

"Yes, as long as I'm healthy." Qiao Chu nodded.

Xiao Yichen pulled Qiao Chu out of the room and gently closed the door. When they came to the living room, Xiao Yichen asked Qiao Chu to sit on the sofa, and he poured her a glass of warm water.

"Drink some water. You are tired today."

Qiao Chu took the water cup and took a sip, "With you by my side, I don't feel tired."

Xiao Yichen sat next to Qiao Chu and held her in his arms, "From now on, I will always be with you and the children and bring you happiness."

Qiao Chu leaned in Xiao Yichen's arms, feeling his warmth and heartbeat, "I believe you."

As the night deepened, the two of them just hugged each other, enjoying this peaceful and warm moment. They knew that there might be storms in the future, but as long as they were by each other's side, everything would no longer be scary.

After an unknown amount of time, Qiao Chu gradually fell asleep in Xiao Yichen's arms. Xiao Yichen carefully picked her up, walked into the bedroom, gently put her on the bed, and covered her with a quilt. Then he lay down beside her and held her tightly in his arms.

Leng Ruofei sat quietly at the table in the studio, the bright light falling like a veil on the pile of unfinished design manuscripts. Her eyes were focused and sharp, concentrating on examining every design detail, and the pen in her hand rustled on the paper from time to time, leaving a string of marks and modifications.

At this time, the studio was exceptionally quiet. Liuliu and other designers had already left, leaving only the subtle sound of her flipping through papers. Time seemed to have stopped, and she was completely immersed in this creative and challenging work.

After an unknown amount of time, she finally finished reading the last design draft and breathed a sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off her shoulders. She slowly moved her stiff shoulders and felt the pain coming from deep in her muscles. She raised her head and glanced at the wall clock. She couldn't help but stick out her tongue, her eyes full of surprise. It was already nine o'clock in the evening.

Thinking back to the past period, because of all the trivial matters at home, a lot of tasks inevitably piled up at work. In order to make up for the missed progress, she almost worked overtime desperately during this period. It has been a long time since she went home to have a good meal with Xiao Yiyang.

Leng Ruofei sighed softly, with a hint of helplessness and fatigue in her voice. She rubbed her sore eyes, trying to relieve the fatigue that had lasted for a long time. Then, she slowly stood up and began to pack her things.

She moved gently but methodically, sorting out the messy documents on the table one by one and stacking them neatly aside. Then, she turned off the computer, and the light on the screen disappeared instantly, and the room seemed to be darker. Then, she turned off the lights in the studio one by one, and as the lights went out one by one, the entire studio was gradually shrouded in darkness. When everything returned to darkness, she gently locked the door of the studio, and the slight "click" sound was particularly clear in the silent corridor.

Outside the door, the night was as blue as water, with stars dotted around like bright gems inlaid on the black sky. A bright moon hung high in the sky, casting a silvery glow. Leng Ruofei walked towards her car step by step with a slightly tired pace. Her figure was slender in the moonlight, revealing a bit of loneliness.

Just as she was about to drive home, her eyes were suddenly attracted by a familiar figure. She saw Xiao Yiyang standing outside the passenger window of the car, looking at her with a smile. His eyes were full of tenderness and concern, as if this long wait was a sweet expectation for him, not torture.

Leng Ruofei's face instantly blossomed with a smile of surprise, that smile was like a flower blooming in spring, brilliant and moving. She quickened her pace and hurried towards Xiao Yiyang, her heels making crisp sounds as they collided with the ground.

"Why are you here?" There was a hint of anger in Leng Ruofei's voice, but that anger was filled with joy that was difficult to conceal.

Xiao Yiyang gently opened the car door for her, his tone full of pampering: "I'm here to take my baby home."

Leng Ruofei got into the car, and Xiao Yiyang carefully fastened her seat belt, his movements gentle and skillful. During this brief process, their eyes met, and in an instant, their eyes were filled with deep affection, as if time had stopped for them.

The car started and moved smoothly through the city streets. The city lights were brilliant at night, and the scene outside the car window kept receding. The atmosphere in the car was warm and peaceful. Leng Ruofei leaned on the seat and looked at Xiao Yiyang's profile. The outline looked particularly handsome under the light. She was moved, thinking back to how busy she was these days and how she neglected Xiao Yiyang, but he never left her and supported her silently.

"My dear, thank you for your hard work during this period." Xiao Yiyang was the first to break the silence. His voice was gentle and low, like the mellow sound of a cello.

Leng Ruofei smiled slightly, with a hint of apology in that smile: "It's okay, I just feel a little sorry for you. I don't have time to accompany you."

Xiao Yiyang reached out and held Leng Ruofei's hand. His palm was broad and warm, giving people an endless sense of security. "Silly, why are you saying sorry? I know you are working hard for your job and for our future. I understand your hard work, and I am proud of your persistence and hard work."

A warm current surged in Leng Ruofei's heart, and she held Xiao Yiyang's hand tightly, as if that hand was her support in this complicated world.

Suddenly, Leng Ruofei's mood became a little low, and her eyes dimmed, "Yiyang, my sister-in-law has not only given my brother a six-year-old daughter, but she is also pregnant with another one. And I..."

Xiao Yiyang interrupted her quickly, his tone firm but gentle: "Fei'er, don't think like that. I just need you. I don't need a child. Children are not the standard for measuring our love and happiness. If one day you really like children, we can adopt one. In my heart, you are the most important."

Tears welled up in Leng Ruofei's eyes, and those tears sparkled under the light, "Yi Yang, you are so kind."

Xiao Yiyang parked the car in front of a restaurant, "Honey, let's go eat something first."

The two walked into the restaurant, and the soft lights sprinkled in every corner like a veil, creating an elegant and warm atmosphere. The tables and chairs were neatly arranged, and the tableware was exquisite and shiny. Xiao Yiyang pulled out a chair for Leng Ruofei, and after she sat down, he sat down opposite her.

"Fei'er, what do you want to eat?" Xiao Yiyang asked gently, his eyes always staying on Leng Ruofei's face, full of care.

Leng Ruofei smiled, that smile was like a spring breeze, "You order, I can order anything."

Xiao Yiyang ordered a few dishes that Leng Ruofei liked, including tender steak, refreshing vegetable salad, and exquisite desserts. After a while, the delicious dishes were served on the table one by one.
