Play coquettish with Joe

Chapter 9222 Finale (3)

Qiao Muyuan took a few bites but couldn't eat anymore, so he sat alone at the window of Huanhua Teahouse in a daze.

Tea is brewing in the tea room, and the whole room is filled with aroma.

Qiao Muyuan leaned against the window and looked quietly at the tall wintersweet tree outside the window. The top of the tree was covered with snow, and large snowflakes were still falling from the sky.

The whole Huanhua was peaceful, and the dim yellow light from the hanging lamps in the villa reflected on the snow.

At some point, Qiao Muyuan felt sleepy. She leaned on the sofa pillow and took a nap.

As if in a dream but not in a dream, she heard the door knock, and then a fur shawl appeared on her shoulders.

Qiao Muyuan opened her eyes in a daze and happened to see Ji Changmu. She thought she was dreaming and yawned: "Brother Ji."

"It's me." Ji Changmu saw that she was awake and held her hand, "Why did you fall asleep here? You will catch a cold."

"Extremely sleepy." Qiao Muyuan looked at him drowsily, "Why are you here?"

"I've left all the matters at hand to Bi Hang. I just happened to come to the capital early." Ji Changmu frowned slightly, "If you don't take good care of yourself when I'm not around for a day, Butler Tao said you didn't eat much at night."

"Uncle Tao, why do you tell me everything? I have no appetite."

"What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?" Ji Changmu touched her forehead. She didn't have a fever. "I haven't eaten yet. The plane just landed. Come and have something with me."

"I still have no appetite."

"Where does it hurt?"

Seeing Ji Changmu sitting next to her, Qiao Muyuan leaned into his arms and let him hold her.

The man's chest was warm and broad, and the coat still smelled of the cold outdoors. She hugged his waist and leaned in his arms, feeling particularly at ease.

Ji Changmu also hugged her and saw that she had her eyes closed, as if she was very sleepy.

"Mu Yuan, if you are sleepy, I will send you to your room to sleep."

"It's too early. If you go to bed too early, you'll wake up again at night."

"Then have dinner with me."

"I don't want to move, please let me hold you for a while."

Ji Changmu saw that Qiao Muyuan was lazy and had no appetite at the moment, so he insisted on asking: "Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

"You're so noisy. I'm not uncomfortable. I just want to hug you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qiao Muyuan suddenly felt a stirring of discomfort in his stomach.

She opened her eyes, suddenly pushed Ji Changmu away, and ran into the bathroom.

Ji Changmu knew she was tough, so he immediately stood up and chased after her nervously: "A Yuan!"

Qiao Muyuan lay on the side of the sink and vomited non-stop. His face, which had been rosy just a moment ago, suddenly turned pale and he couldn't straighten up.

A few days ago I was just feeling lazy and lethargic, but today I started to lose my appetite and suffer from morning sickness, which was similar to the state I had when I was pregnant with little Huaihuai.

Ji Changmu took a towel, wiped her face and hands, and asked gently and carefully: "I'll take you to the hospital."

Qiao Muyuan didn't want to go to the hospital. She leaned in Ji Changmu's arms tiredly and weakly, wrapping her arms around his waist: "I won't go."

"Be obedient." Ji Changmu said patiently, "It's my fault. I was too busy during this period and didn't take good care of you."

Ji Changmu saw her face pale and her brows furrowed, and he held her in his arms distressedly.

"I'm fine, I'm fine."

"The climate in the capital is no better than that in Qiongzhou. If you come from Qiongzhou, you will definitely not be used to the weather here. I will accompany you to the hospital and go there now."

Ji Changmu tried to coax him several times, but Qiao Muyuan refused to go.

It took a long time before she felt a little more comfortable.

She raised her head from his arms and stared at his beautiful face with a pair of bright eyes.

The man looked worried.

But she smiled: "It's rare to watch the snow in the capital together. You want to watch the snow with me tonight."

"I won't leave. I will stay with you these days."

"Then... do you want to watch the snow with one more person?" Ji Changmu, who was always smart, didn't react for a while. He was thinking about coaxing Qiao Muyuan to go to the hospital: "What."

"Why are you so stupid now?" She put her arms around his waist, "I'm pregnant."

Ji Changmu felt as if a strange electric current shot through his body. He subconsciously hugged Qiao Muyuan tightly: "Ayuan, really? Why didn't you tell me?"

"I knew about it a few days ago, but you were too busy and I never had the chance to tell you. It's not just right. It's neither early nor late. I didn't expect you to come to Huanhua today."

"Ayuan, I have to work hard for you again. Let's go to the hospital to see if it's okay. If the pregnancy reaction is too big, it will be very uncomfortable."

"It's okay. I've been fine these past few days, but I just felt a little uncomfortable. This is not the first time I'm pregnant. Don't worry, I will take care of myself."

"Okay." Ji Changmu never let go and hugged her tightly, "I will finish the work in hand as soon as possible."

"Brother Ji, you haven't had dinner yet. It's getting late. Let's go to the restaurant together."

Qiao Muyuan took his hand, intertwined their fingers, and they went to the restaurant together again.

Ji Changmu obviously hadn't come to his senses yet and had been immersed in the good news just now. Unexpectedly, their second child was really here.

Qiao Muyuan still had no appetite, so she ate with Ji Changmu.

She held her chin in her hands, looking at Ji Changmu for a while, and then looking at the snow outside the window.

"You don't tell me about such a big thing right away. No matter how busy I am, how busy can I be?"

"Brother Ji is burying me."

"Don't dare."

"How dare you? You are obviously trying to kill me."

"..."

"Isn't this just a surprise for you? I was also pleasantly surprised a few days ago."

"I will accompany you for your prenatal check-up after returning from the capital."

"Okay, let's go together then. My sister-in-law will give birth soon, and we are very happy. Maybe I will also have a daughter in my belly."

"Did you go to the hospital today?"

"I went. After leaving the hospital, I went to Qiao's and met my brother, Jingsuke, Uncle Oufan and others. The office I had at Qiao's back then is still there."

"Why do you suddenly think of going to Qiao's?"

Speaking of this, Ji Changmu laughed first.

The past events are still vivid in my mind.

"Go for a walk and criticize someone."

"I knew it was nothing good."

The restaurant is warm and peaceful.

Qiao Muyuan felt lonely before, but when Ji Changmu came, her mood became different again.

After Ji Changmu had finished dinner, he asked her: "What do you want to eat? I'll make it."

"I want to eat you."

"That's not possible." Ji Changmu said deliberately, "Otherwise, I would want it more than you. A night like this is not the right time to do something wonderful."

"I'm really hungry right now. Can you cook me a bowl of noodles? It'll be vegetarian."

"Okay, I'll cook it."

Ji Changmu hasn't cooked for a long time, and Qiao Muyuan hasn't eaten food cooked by him for a long time.

She happened to think about the past years and her later time in England.

For a while, he cooked for her every day.

She turned her head and looked out the window. In the glazed world, with heavy snow all over the sky, the entire Huanhua was like a paradise, isolated from the world, very much like the time she spent with him in the British countryside.
