My Husband, a Marshal: Conquering the Stars with My Culinary Arts Chapter 492 - 166: Have a 2nd Child (Part 2)3

"Xixi..."

Ke Lian squatted down again, looking at Du Xixi’s belly with eyes full of affection, then he reached out and gently placed his hand on it. He softened his voice, as though his entire being had ward for Du Xixi and the child, "Thank you for bringing so much happiness."

Du Xixi couldn’t help but smile, but she retorted with playful pride, "Who said it’s just your happiness? It’s clearly my happiness too!"

"Our happiness." Ke Lian held Du Xixi’s hand, and with the presence of the obstetrics director and Doctor Mo, he restrained himself from being overly affectionate, rely intertwining their fingers before standing up to ask the obstetrics director, "Director, is Xixi in good health? How about the baby?"

The obstetrics director, though unmarried and without children herself, had witnessed many loving couples and found Ke Lian and Du Xixi’s interactions most endearing, particularly impressed by Ke Lian’s priority of asking about Du Xixi before the child.

It’s not that the obstetrics director thought unborn children are less important than pregnant won, otherwise, what would be the purpose of the obstetrics departnt? But pregnant won endure hardships during pregnancy, whether it’s out of genuine concern or rely a show, Ke Lian’s consideration was entirely appropriate.

The obstetrics director was indeed very pleased, smiling with a benevolence akin to that of a senior family mber, fitting her age sufficing to be the child’s great-grandmother, she spoke like a worthy elder, "Rest assured, Marshal, both Xixi and the child are healthy. Just mind a few things regularly and don’t forget the scheduled prenatal check-ups."

"Yes, I’ll rember." With the experience from the previous pregnancy, Ke Lian was adept at caring for the expectant mother, but to be cautious, he still asked a few more questions to be sure there wouldn’t be any issues in taking care of Du Xixi later, then the four of them slowly returned to the Ke Family ho.

The hovercar, which usually raced against ti, drove exceptionally slowly today. Du Xixi leaned against Ke Lian’s embrace, draped a light blanket over herself, while watching the hovercars pass by outside.

Honestly, this was the slowest hovercar ride Du Xixi had ever taken; usually, it only took a few minutes to return to the Ke Family, but today it took more than twenty minutes, and by the ti they arrived ho, the sky was already beginning to darken.

"Watch your step." Ke Lian got out first, though the light outside the Ke Family ho was not dim, he carefully watched Du Xixi’s movents, fearful that she might slip accidentally.

While Du Xixi enjoyed his thoughtful care, she couldn’t help but wonder aloud, "So, you’re only this cautious now that I’m pregnant? How co I’ve never seen you this attentive before?"

Ke Lian smiled at her, his right hand wrapped around her slender waist, while his left index finger gently stroked her nose, "Silly girl, if you fall after becoming pregnant, I’m afraid it might leave you with lasting ailnts."

In the Military Departnt, a few female soldiers had been pregnant before, but frankly, being accustod to roughness on the battlefield, if their families were negligent, bumps and bruises were inevitable, and a careless fall could an not only losing the child but also causing significant harm to themselves.

"I’m not hugely devoted to having children; if we have them, we’ll cherish them, if not, I won’t force it or lant it." Having experienced countless life-and-death situations, Ke Lian had co to see many things with indifference, "But Xixi, you’re different to , if I had to choose between the child and you, I would only choose you."

Child? Don’t bla Ke Lian for being indifferent; he loves Yiyi and Er Er because they are the testant of his love with Du Xixi, the proof of Du Xixi’s love for him, carrying both their blood.

Otherwise, Ke Lian had never shown special attention to other people’s children.

"You and the child, I love you first, before I love the child." Ke Lian led Du Xixi slowly inside, where Yiyi and Er Er were held by 2569 already crying out "Mama, Papa" to be held, yet Ke Lian solely focused on ensuring Du Xixi had no obstacles underfoot, and only when she was safely seated on the sofa did he go ahead to pick up his two sons.

Du Xixi stared at Ke Lian, eventually letting out a small laugh, "Aren’t you afraid the kids will grow up, find out about your attitude, and won’t respect you?"

"Having you is enough, you’ll discipline them." Ke Lian raised an eyebrow, letting Yiyi and Er Er cling to his neck without releasing, his words ant to exasperate and amuse Du Xixi.

Ke Xing and Miao Miao followed behind Du Xixi and Ke Lian, and upon entering and hearing their conversation, the two were caught between laughter and tears, especially Ke Xing, who hadn’t expected Ke Lian to be so "indifferent" about the children.

His eyes, filled with pity, swept over Yiyi and Er Er, even Du Xixi’s flat belly received so consideration. As their real grandfather, Ke Lian’s real father, at this mont, he didn’t know whether being Ke Lian’s children was a blessing or a misfortune.

But...

Ke Xing glanced affectionately at Du Xixi’s side profile, reflecting that this girl he’d watched grow was genuinely blessed. What woman wouldn’t wish to encounter a husband who cherishes her like a precious gem?
