When Tan Lin became pregnant, Wen Jinian was naturally happier than anyone else.

Like Tan Lin, he dreamed of having a child of his own.

But after the initial joy, he couldn't help but worry.

They couldn't keep their last child, and because of that, Tan Lin's emotions were greatly affected, and she was even almost scammed.

He worried that the child would ultimately disappoint them again, so although he was happy, he still kept the child.

"Don't tell anyone else about this yet. Let's wait until the pregnancy is stable after three months," Wen Jinian said, still having some concerns.

Last time, when Tan Lin was pregnant, he couldn't wait to tell his relatives, friends, and family. This time, it's better to be more cautious.

Tan Lin nodded; she thought so too.

That evening, Tan Lin thought about it and looked at Wen Jinian, saying, "Honey, I want to resign."

Hearing Tan Lin's decision, Wen Jinian was somewhat surprised, but he knew that she was thinking of the child in her womb.

They've been waiting for this child for so many years, and now that he's finally here, they can't afford any more accidents.

Besides, Tan Lin's current workload is still quite heavy. If she continues to work, her body will definitely not be able to handle it, and it will also affect the baby in her womb.

"So, what about your job...?"

Wen Jinian knew how much effort Tan Lin had put in to get to her current position, and if she resigned now, all her previous efforts would be in vain.

"I can find another job, but this child is something we've been longing for, and I can't let anything happen to him," Tan Lin said firmly, touching her belly.

With her abilities, finding another job shouldn't be difficult.

"If I really can't find a job, then I'll work with Xiaorou and we'll be in charge of the overseas part together." Tan Lin had already planned out her future.

"Wife, you've worked so hard." Wen Jinian reached out and hugged her with a pained expression. Tan Lin had already sacrificed too much for this child.

"I'm not suffering. I'll do anything as long as our child can be born safely." Tan Lin is very excited right now, and she plans to resign tomorrow.

When her competitors heard that Tan Lin was going to resign, they all craned their necks, eager to replace her.

But Tan Lin's work ability is obvious to all, and her superiors are well aware that her position is not one that just anyone can hold.

"I don't agree to your resignation unless you give me a reason. If you really have something to do, I can approve your leave, for as long as you want."

The leader didn't want to lose such a capable subordinate. With Tan Lin around, he didn't have to worry too much and could entrust everything to her.

"Director, what if I want to take a year's leave?" Tan Lin asked.

"Well... you need to give me a reason before I can approve your leave." The leader was taken aback when he heard Tan Lin's words, and then said with a serious expression.

"It's because of my own health; I need to get treatment." Tan Lin didn't tell her boss about her pregnancy and could only make up an excuse.

"In that case, I can agree, but you have to come back to work after a year. I'll still keep your position for you." The leader had no choice but to grant Tan Lin's request for leave.

He's not stupid; Tan Lin's husband is the main person in charge of the Red Star Transportation Team.

Many of their company's project orders were brought in by Tan Lin; without her, they would suffer huge losses.

Hearing the director say that, Tan Lin had no choice but to comply.

After she came out of the director's office, she saw that many people were looking in her direction.

They all looked disappointed when they learned that Tan Lin had failed to resign.

Tan Lin glanced at the people eyeing her covetously, ignored them, handed in her leave slip, turned around and left the workplace to go home.

Wanwan was very happy to learn that Tan Lin had taken a long leave of absence, so that her mother could spend every day with her.

Since she stopped working, Tan Lin has felt much more relaxed.

Besides picking up and dropping off Wenwan at school every day, he would also spend the rest of his time looking for Wenrou.

Wenrou was unaware of Tan Lin's pregnancy at this time; she simply assumed that Tan Lin wanted to rest, which was why she had taken a long leave from work.

For the first three months, Tan Lin was very careful in everything she did. After a check-up at the hospital, the doctor told her that the baby was growing well and was stable, so she could rest assured.

Tan Lin was naturally pleased with this result.

After three months, she no longer needed to hide it and could prepare to tell the people around her.

The next day, she went to see Wenrou and told her that she was pregnant.

"Really? That's wonderful." Wenrou was happy for Tan Lin and Wen Jinian when she heard the news.

However, thinking of Wen Wan, she asked, "Did you tell Wanwan about this?"

Tan Lin shook her head. "Not yet, I don't know how to bring it up with her."

Wen Wan is naturally very sensitive. If she knew that Tan Lin was pregnant, she would definitely feel that someone was going to take away her parents' love.

"Let's talk about this later," Tan Lin said, not continuing the topic.

Seeing that she was unwilling to talk about it, Wenrou didn't ask any further.

Knowing that Tan Lin's pregnancy was not easy, Wenrou often made nutritious things to visit her.

Since starting his graduate studies, Jiang Yan has spent even less time at home.

Wenrou would visit him whenever she had time, and considering that he was almost eighteen, she planned to hold a coming-of-age ceremony for him.

Jiang Yan didn't want to make it too grand, so Wenrou simply gathered the family together for a happy meal.

Not long after Jiang Yan's birthday, the college entrance examination came again.

Fang Xinyou and Xiaoya are both taking the college entrance examination this year. Wang Guixiang, also known as Sister-in-law Wang, called Wenrou several days in advance.

Wenrou knew that Xiaoya would definitely be fine with her grades, so she comforted Sister-in-law Wang with a few words.

On the day of the college entrance examination, just like before, all the parents gathered at the entrance of the examination hall, waiting for their children.

Fang Xinyou went alone, and Jiang Yan happened to be going home when he ran into her.

He hadn't intended to pay her any attention, but Fang Xinyou called out to him.

"Jiang Yan, I will get into Peking University just like you."

She had been waiting for this day for a long time. Although she went to university a few years later than Jiang Yan, she was confident in herself.

Jiang Yan is still pursuing his master's degree at Peking University. If she can get into Peking University, she will be one step closer to him.

Fang Xinyou had long been used to Jiang Yan's cold attitude towards her, and she didn't take it to heart.

She knew that Jiang Yan had always been like this since he was a child. As long as she became as outstanding as him, she would definitely attract his attention one day.

Fang Ting's son has been missing for a year now, and she has never given up searching for him.

I still go to the train station every day at the same time, and don't come back until very late. The next day is the same.

At home, Fang Xinyou still cooks for her every day, but she is beaten and scolded less often now.

Huang Xiaojun didn't come home, and Fang Ting went to the train station every day, leaving her all alone at home.

She had enough living expenses sent by Fang Yuru to eat.

Tan Lin's due date is approaching these days, so Wenrou's family hasn't been paying much attention to the college entrance examination.

Wen Jinian no longer goes to the transport team; he stays home with her now, worried that she might go into labor at any time.

Tan Lin is currently stuck at home and can't go anywhere, which is making her quite irritable.

She had to use a lot of persuasion to convince Wen Jinian to take her out.

"Mom, I want to go out and play too." Wen Wan ran up and grabbed Tan Lin's hand when she saw her about to go out.

Tan Lin looked down at Wen Wan and coaxed her, "Wanwan, be good. It's not convenient for Mommy to take you out right now. You can stay at home, and I'll come back in a little while and buy you your favorite candy, okay?"

Upon hearing this, Wen Wan could only obediently nod.

After watching her parents leave, Wen Wan silently turned around and went home.

The neighbor next door saw this and waved to Wen Wan.

"Wanwan, do you know why your parents don't take you with them when they go out? It's because you're not their biological child. Your mother is pregnant with her own child, and once the baby is born, you'll be sent back home."

The neighbor next door didn't get along well with Tan Lin's family to begin with; she just couldn't stand the way Tan Lin behaved at work.

"You...you're talking nonsense. My mother wouldn't abandon me." Wen Wan's face showed fear upon hearing this.

Although she didn't believe her mother would abandon her, she couldn't help but overthink it.

Indeed, since my mother became pregnant, all my attention has been on her belly, and I've spent much less time with her.

Although Wenwan was reluctant to admit it, she still knew that the younger brother or sister in her mother's belly was much more important than her.

"It's okay if you don't believe me, but I think your mother is definitely carrying a son. When your brother is born, you'll be superfluous in this family," the neighbor continued.

"I'm not superfluous, my mother loves me the most." After saying this, Wen Wan turned around, went home, and closed the door.

Tan Lin and Wen Jinian had just arrived at the entrance of the department store when Tan Lin suddenly felt a sharp pain in his stomach.

She grabbed Wen Jinian's arm and almost lost her balance.

"Honey, I...I think I'm going into labor."

As soon as Tan Lin finished speaking, she felt her water break, followed by a wave of contractions that made her bite her lip tightly.

This was the first time Wen Jinian had encountered such a situation. Seeing Tan Lin in so much pain, he began to panic.

However, he remembered what the doctor had told him, so he reached out and picked Tan Lin up in his arms, then ran towards the hospital.

"Honey, the doctor said childbirth isn't that quick. Just bear with it for now, it'll be fine once we get to the hospital."

Wen Jinian didn't dare to stop walking, while comforting Tan Lin.

Tan Lin tried to endure it, but the pain intensified with each wave, making it unbearable.

"My stomach hurts so much, am I going to die?" On the way to the hospital, Tan Lin thought of all the worst possible outcomes.

If she dies, what will happen to Wen Wan? And what will happen to the baby in her womb that will be born without a mother?

"Don't talk nonsense, you'll be fine." Wen Jinian practically ran all the way to the hospital.

Fortunately, the hospital wasn't far from the department store. After arriving at the hospital, he quickly found a doctor to take Tan Lin into the delivery room.

Family members were not allowed in the delivery room, so he had to wait outside.

The last time he was giving birth gently outside the delivery room, he was able to remain calm. But now that it was his own child's turn, he found his hands were starting to tremble uncontrollably.

He didn't know what to do at that point, so he could only message Wenrou and ask her to come over.

Upon learning that Tan Lin was about to give birth, Wenrou rushed over.

Seeing that Wen Jinian was trembling uncontrollably with nervousness, she gently comforted him, "Second brother, don't worry, your wife will be fine. This is her first child, so the delivery will be a little slower. Don't rush, sit down and wait."

"Xiaorou, thank goodness you're here, otherwise I really wouldn't know what to do."

The gentle presence finally calmed Wen Jinian down, and he was no longer as nervous as before.

After a while, Tan Lin's shouts came from inside the production room.

Tan Lin has always been a strong-willed person. She never uttered a sound when she was injured and needed stitches, but now she is in so much pain after giving birth.

Upon hearing the noise, Wen Jinian jumped up from his chair, walked to the door of the delivery room, and shouted loudly inside, "Wife, don't be afraid, I'm here with you outside. Hang in there!"

Hearing Wen Jin's voice in the production room, Tan Lin felt less panicked.

After calming down, she followed the doctor's advice, breathing heavily and stopping shouting to conserve her strength.

Wenrou and Wen Jinian waited from noon until evening before they finally heard the cry of a baby coming from the delivery room.

Upon hearing the sound, Wen Jinian could no longer hold back his tears.

Upon learning that Tan Lin was also alright, he squatted down on the spot and burst into tears.

No one knows how difficult it was for him and Tan Lin to wait for this child. At this moment, all their efforts and hardships have been worthwhile.

Wenrou brought the child over and showed him to Wen Jinian, "Second brother, it's a boy, and he looks a lot like your sister-in-law."

Wen Jinian wiped away his tears before looking up at the child in Wenrou's arms.

He was holding the child when Tan Lin was also pushed out.

Upon seeing Wen Jinian, Tan Lin asked weakly, "Wen Jinian, please take a look at my son."

Wen Jinian placed the child next to Tan Lin. Perhaps sensing the familiar scent of his mother, the child couldn't help but smile when he was close to Tan Lin.

"This is our child, Wen Jinian. We finally have our own child."

At this moment, Tan Lin also burst into tears of joy.

Wen Jinian reached out and hugged his wife, looking at his son in his arms. This moment was one of unprecedented happiness.

Wenrou was happy for them when she saw this, and her eyes welled up with tears.

At this moment, she suddenly remembered that Tan Lin and Wen Jinian were in the hospital, so how did Wen Wan manage to get by at home alone?
