Chapter 223 Expecting Childbirth
It was an hour later when they came out tired from playing.

After they were tired of playing, they decided to find a restaurant to eat.

Xu Jinzhi didn't know what to eat, so after walking around, he chose a hot pot restaurant.

The family of three went to the restaurant to prepare for dinner, but Xu Jinzhi and his friends did not expect to see an acquaintance as soon as they sat down.

Xie Xingchuan was also very surprised when he saw his second brother's family of three. He even choked himself due to excessive surprise.

The girl sitting opposite Xie Xingchuan quickly handed him a glass of water and a tissue, looking worried.

Xie Xingchuan stopped coughing, whispered a few words to the girl opposite him, then stood up and walked towards Xu Jinzhi and the others.

"Uncle." Tuantuan called out crisply.

Xie Xingchuan touched the little guy's head, then looked at the two people in front of him, "Second brother, second sister-in-law, you guys come and eat hot pot too."

"Yeah." Xie Yanchuan nodded slightly, then glanced at the place where Xie Xingchuan had sat before, and exchanged glances with the girl who was looking over there.

Xie Xingchuan said somewhat awkwardly: "That's my friend."

Xu Jinzhi took a look and realized that this was not his sister-in-law from his previous life. In his previous life, Xie Xingchuan didn't get married until he was 35.

Xie Xingchuan didn't even bother to let the other party come over to say hello. He probably really didn't have any interest in the other party.

"Then you guys eat, second brother and sister-in-law. I won't disturb you." Xie Xingchuan said.

"Okay." Xu Jinzhi nodded.

Xie Xingchuan touched Tuantuan's head and turned back to his seat.

It was just an insignificant episode, and Xu Jinzhi and the others didn't take it seriously.

After eating the hotpot, the family of three walked around the mall to help digest the food. They went back home when they had walked almost all the way.

The last day of the Spring Festival has passed.

In the morning, Xu Jinzhi went out alone, and Xie Yanchuan and Tuantuan stayed at home.

Everything was normal in the company and the morning's work went smoothly. However, when Xu Jin saw Xu Zhen in the middle of the work, he found that Xu Zhen's face did not look good, so he found a gap and went to Xu Zhen.

"What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?" Xu Jinzhi asked.

Xu Zhen cleared his throat slightly and said, "It's nothing, I just have a little cough."

As he spoke, Xu Zhen did not forget to stay away from Xu Jinzhi, "Don't get close, I won't forgive you if my granddaughter gets sick."

Xu Jinzhi was speechless. She came here with good intentions to care for her old father, and this was the result?

Xu Zhen was also watching Xu Jinzhi. In just a few days, although Xu Jinzhi still looked very thin, his condition was different from before the New Year.

Although Xu Zhen didn't know what had happened in such a short period of time that caused such an obvious change in Xu Jinzhi's condition, he gradually felt relieved when he saw that her condition was much better now.

After a brief silence, Xu Jinzhi said helplessly, "You are old now, you still have to take care of your body, otherwise how can you protect your granddaughter in the future?"

Xu Zhenxin asked him why he was protecting his granddaughter? Didn't his granddaughter have parents?

But then he thought again and felt that it was not right. She was his granddaughter, his daughter's child, and it was his duty to protect her.

"It's just a little sore throat, it's no big deal." Xu Zhen explained unhappily.

Xu Jinzhi did not continue to confront her old father. She looked at her father in front of her and saw the white hair hidden in his hair. Suddenly, she couldn't help but feel a pang of bitterness in her heart. Xu Jinzhi suppressed the strange feeling in her heart and tried to make her tone more relaxed, "Don't work so hard. You can't spend all the money you make."

"Humph!" Xu Zhen snorted coldly, "I'm saving this for my granddaughter."

"Okay, it's your granddaughter's." Xu Jinzhi said helplessly.

After making sure that Xu Zhen was fine, Xu Jinzhi turned around and left, going back to his work station.

Xu Zhen was still standing there, watching his daughter's back as she left. He felt as if he had forgotten what she looked like when she was a child.

For a moment, I felt an indescribable bitterness in my heart.

But it doesn't matter, he will always find a way to make her live a good life.

~
Time flies, and it is already July in the blink of an eye.

Xu Jinzhi's due date is in mid-July. She has stopped working and is waiting for the birth of her baby at home.

Xie Yanchuan's school has already had its summer vacation, but he has been quite busy in the laboratory recently.

Xie Yanchuan goes out early and comes back late every day, and he hasn't had a good talk with Xu Jinzhi for several days.

Today, Xie Yanchuan finally managed to come back to have dinner with Xu Jinzhi. When Xie Yanchuan walked in, Tuantuan was playing with Lego.

Maybe it’s because the Lego this time is more complicated, so it’s a little difficult for Tuantuan to assemble it. He has been assembling it for several days, but there is only a simple base.

He is currently struggling with Lego, and Xu Jinzhi seems to be helping him, but Xu Jinzhi is not good at building Lego and does not have the patience. He is currently playing with a small part out of boredom.

As if by telepathy, Xu Jin looked up subconsciously, and then saw Xie Yanchuan coming in from the entrance.

"You're back!" Xu Jinzhi said happily and stood up.

"Yeah." Xie Yanchuan nodded, changed his shoes and quickly walked towards Xu Jinzhi.

"Dad." Tuantuan also looked at Xie Yanchuan, but when he called out, he sounded a little aggrieved, and he looked listless.

"What's wrong with Tuantuan?" Xie Yanchuan asked in a gentle voice.

Xu Jinzhi glanced at Tuan Tuan, and seeing that he was not going to say anything, he took the initiative to say to Xie Yanchuan: "You used to accompany him to put it together, and it was done quickly."

However, Xie Yanchuan has been busy these days and has no time to play Lego with Tuantuan. In addition, the difficulty of this game is quite large, and they have been playing for several days but still haven't finished it.

Xie Yanchuan smiled gently, "I'm sorry, I haven't been able to spend much time with you recently. After dinner, come back from a walk with mom, and dad will fight with you, okay?"

"Okay!" Tuantuan immediately became happy.

Xie Yanchuan and Xu Jinzhi looked at each other and laughed.

After the meal, Xie Yanchuan took Xu Jinzhi out for a walk. She was about to give birth soon, and proper walking was good for her health.

But it was still very hot at the moment, and Xu Jinzhi was absolutely unwilling to go out.

Xie Yanchuan coaxed Xu Jinzhi in a gentle voice for a long time before he agreed to go out with him.

So the three of them walked slowly around the villa, and on the way they met a little girl who knew Tuantuan.

My dears, I am begging for recommendations, monthly tickets, collections and rewards!
