My Youth Began With Him

“Honey, umm…” Huo Mian wanted to say something but Qin Chu didn’t give her a chance.

He just kissed her without warning.

What was he doing?

After a long while, when Huo Mian felt that she was out of breath, Qin Chu lifted his head reluctantly, but he still held her tightly to him.

“Honey, what happened? Did you have alcohol?” Huo Mian looked confused.

Qin Chu: “…”

“Honey, did you have a nightmare when you napped?” Huo Mian had a vivid imagination.

Qin Chu: “…”

“Oh, I know it now. You must have done something bad and are afraid that I’ll scold you, so you want to soften me with a kiss… Humph, it must be the case. Tell me, did you buy the snacks for her? Have you forgotten what I told you? You can’t let the kids eat this stuff, especially the sweetened soft drinks which are full of edible pigments. Their immune system…”

Huo Mian was in the middle of a long lecture when Mr. Qin asked suddenly, “Honey, is our baby a boy?”

“Um… Where did you hear that?”

“Answer me first.” Qin Chu looked at his wife’s eyes with a solemn expression.

“I… I know it’s not right to do such a thing. As a leader of the hospital, it’s wrong for me to take a peek of the baby’s gender. But… I just did it to satisfy my curiosity. Ha! After all, no matter it’s a boy or a girl, it’s our child…”

“Answer me.” Qin Chu was exasperated as Huo Mian circled around and wouldn’t get to the point.

“Um, yes,” finally, Huo Mian mumbled out two words.

Immediately, Qin Chu’s eyes softened.

He reached out and caressed her elegant cheek.

“So, we’ll have both daughters and a son this time, right?” Qin Chu looked almost in a bit of disbelief.

“Ha! Don’t depend on it. If the machine was wrong and it turned out to be a girl…” Huo Mian didn’t dare to get his hopes up since the baby was still tiny.

“I know. It doesn’t matter, really, so long as she comes.”

But he knew Huo Mian was just being careful. After all, the devices at South Side couldn’t make such a mistake.

So, he believed the baby in her belly was indeed a boy.

In fact, he wasn’t partial to boys, and he’d love all the babies so long as they were Huo Mian’s children.

But at the thought that his son would carry on the family name and help him manage the company, he felt full of pride.

Everyone said that one son and one daughter made the perfect family; Mr. Qin thought he was so fortunate that he’d have a son after two daughters.

He had never imagined that one day he’d be so happy.

Driven by the excitement, he behaved differently today.

Carrying Huo Mian in his arms, he walked to the glass window.

“Hey! What are you doing? Put me down. This is the office, someone might see us!”

“Honey, thank you… You gave me Pudding and Little Bean, and now you are giving me a son.”

“Don’t look so smug. What if it’s not a boy?”

“I don’t care so long as it’s our baby. I’ll be happy even if you give me ten daughters.”

Qin Chu lowered his head and kissed her forehead lovingly.

“Are you crazy? I’m not a pig; I won’t have ten children. This is our last baby…” Huo Mian protested.

“Fine. It’s your decision.”

“Oh, Honey, I… um… must confess something to you.” Thinking of the incident with Huo Siqian, Huo Mian felt guilty.
