That day, Wang Xiangxiang was leisurely basking in the sun in the courtyard, her lips curled up slightly, her face radiating bliss, because Fufu’s arrival meant she no longer had any worries.
Moreover, the Chu Family treated Fufu very well, which made her feel incredibly lucky to have married Chu Lian.
She lay there, eyes closed, breathing in the fresh air when suddenly she heard a noise in the courtyard.
She opened her eyes and looked toward the sound, seeing Chu Lian leading a few people into the courtyard.
Wang Xiangxiang rose to her feet, walked over curiously, and asked, confused, "Husband, what are you all doing?"
Seeing Wang Xiangxiang coming over, Chu Lian hurriedly supported her, afraid she might stumble, and cautioned, "My dear, be careful."
Wang Xiangxiang rolled her eyes speechlessly. She wasn’t some invalid, and besides, her belly wasn’t even showing yet. If it were now, might they not let her walk at all when it did show? She brushed Chu Lian’s hand away, saying, "I can walk by myself, I’m not helpless."
"Alright, alright, you can walk; can we hold hands then?" Chu Lian said indulgently, not annoyed.
Wang Xiangxiang smiled, took Chu Lian’s hand, feeling sweet inside, and pointed to the people, asking, "What are they doing?"
Chu Lian’s eyes nearly crinkled with laughter as he mysteriously said, "My dear, what do you think they are doing? Take a guess?"
Wang Xiangxiang’s eyes darted around, then she looked at the people, noted the things they brought, her eyes widened suddenly, shocked and excited beyond belief. Weren’t those materials for a swing? They were going to install a swing here.
She, holding Chu Lian’s hand, looked up at him, "Husband."
Chu Lian smiled, nodded, and said, "Yes, I had them set up a swing here for Fufu to play with, and our son can also use it when he arrives."
Upon hearing this, Wang Xiangxiang pouted, the implication being that she wasn’t meant to play on it, her childlike spirit crushed.
Seeing Wang Xiangxiang’s disappointed little face, Chu Lian touched her cheek gently and said, "Of course, my wife can also play, but only with my supervision, because you are pregnant now, you know? We need to think of our son."
True to form, as soon as Chu Lian finished speaking, Wang Xiangxiang’s eyes lit up. "Okay, I understand. When will it be ready?"
"It will be ready in a moment, but we can’t use it for a few days, you know? We have to make sure it’s secure, to avoid any danger," Chu Lian explained with a smile.
"Okay, then we’ll play in a few days."
"My dear, the construction noise is too loud. Let’s go inside; I have something else for you." Chu Lian said, taking Wang Xiangxiang’s hand and walking toward the house.
Thus, she was led by him, and the two entered the house. Wang Xiangxiang was very curious. What else did he have for her?
She was genuinely surprised by the swing. She hadn’t expected him to be so thoughtful, considering Fufu was still young and needed some toys.
If Fufu knew, he would be delighted.
"My dear, close your eyes."
"Huh?" Wang Xiangxiang was puzzled but complied. "Close your eyes?"
"Hurry and close them; I want to give you a surprise."
Seeing Chu Lian’s expectant look, Wang Xiangxiang closed her eyes, her face radiating happiness, incessantly asking, "Is it ready? What is it exactly?"
"Wait a moment; don’t rush, and don’t open your eyes."
"Okay, I won’t open them." Wang Xiangxiang promised.
