Reincarnation: Trying to pretend to be ordinary, but it turns out it's really impossible.

Su Xingbai didn't come on the first day, and the others comforted each other, saying that he had just finished his work and definitely needed to rest, which was normal.

Su Xingbai still didn't come the next day, and everyone continued to console themselves, saying they were too tired and deserved an extra day of rest.

For five consecutive days, Su Xingbai was nowhere to be seen.

The two of them couldn't sit still any longer, so they simply went to the person's door to find them.

The two of them were stunned when they pushed open the door and entered the room.

They saw Su Xingbai wearing a bear-patterned apron, quietly cutting fruit by the bar.

The apples, oranges, and melons were all cut neatly and arranged in a pretty way, then adorned with delicate little toothpicks.

He kept his eyes straight ahead the entire time, completely ignoring the two people standing at the door.

He leisurely carried the fruit platter to Su Ningning, a smile on his face, and said...

"Honey, have some. It was just flown in by air."

Zhang Tianyu and He Siqi stood there, completely exasperated, their composure crumbling instantly.

They're working overtime at the company, making themselves look old, while this guy is living a peaceful life here!

The two of them immediately walked aggressively towards Su Xingbai.

Su Xingbai then glanced at them coldly, as if he had just noticed them.

The two immediately slowed their pace, their annoyed expressions changing to a fawning tone.

"Brother Su, when are you coming back to the company? You've been back for so many days, and there are still so many things waiting for your decisions!"

Su Xingbai's expression remained indifferent.

"I'm taking maternity leave. My wife is pregnant, and I want to stay home with her."

Zhang Tianyu and He Siqi were suddenly struck by a bolt from the blue.

They looked at Su Ningning's flat stomach, both of them bewildered: "Maternity leave? For...for how long?"

Su Xingbai said with an air of matter-of-fact acceptance.

"It might take two or three years."

Zhang Tianyu and He Siqi swayed, rubbed their ears, and looked on incredulously.

"Two or three years!! Su Xingbai, is your wife pregnant with Nezha?! What do you mean maternity leave is measured in years?! You're not giving us any way to survive!!"

Su Xingbai frowned slightly.

"Why are you shouting so loudly? You're scaring my wife and kids."

Zhang Tianyu and He Siqi looked aggrieved, but they still lowered their voices and said...

"Brother Su, you can't repay us like this! Who takes two or three years of leave for their wedding?"

[At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name: 20 ...

Su Xingbai analyzed for the two of them.

"First of all, my wife is pregnant, so I definitely need to be by her side, which will take more than half a year."

After my wife gives birth and goes through postpartum confinement, I will definitely be by her side.

Furthermore, the first six months after childbirth are the most vulnerable time for new mothers to experience depression, and I absolutely have to be there for her during that period.

So you're saying it will take two or three years?"

Zhang Tianyu and He Siqi: ...

What should I do? Why do I feel like what he said makes a lot of sense?

But his wife's life is precious, and so are theirs!

The two realized in an instant that, given Su Xingbai's doting nature towards his wife, it was practically impossible to get him back to work at the company at this time.

The two immediately turned to Su Ningning and begged her pitifully.

"Sister Su, please persuade Brother Su! We don't need him to work every day; two days on, five days off is enough!"

"Sister Su, look at my hair! If I keep going like this, I'll go bald, and my wife will leave me!"

He Siqi also said with a long face,

"I originally planned to start dating once my career was stable, but now that my career is stable, I don't even have time for dating. If this continues, I'll become a middle-aged single man!"

Seeing their worried expressions, Su Ningning couldn't help but laugh out loud, then turned to comfort Su Xingbai.

"Just agree. You're wasting your time staying home all day. If you go to work, I can go to the company with you."

Su Xingbai had no choice but to compromise in the end.

"Okay, it'll be two days on, five days off. You have to come with me to work."

Zhang Tianyu and He Siqi breathed a huge sigh of relief. The big problem was solved, and they happily stayed for a free meal.

As a result, not long after eating, Su Xingbai's stomach started churning again, and she got up and ran to the bathroom to vomit.

Zhang Tianyu and the other looked puzzled: "What's wrong with our Brother Su? Did he eat something bad?"

Su Ningning replied casually, "It's nothing, just normal morning sickness."

"Pat-pat, pat-pat—"

The chopsticks in their hands fell to the table instantly, their expressions exactly the same as Su's father's back then—completely stunned.

Su's mother quickly tried to explain, afraid that the two would say something outrageous.

"Don't overthink it. He's just too worried about Ningning. It's all psychological, which is why he's experiencing morning sickness."

Zhang Tianyu and He Siqi were completely blank-minded the whole time, unable to come back to their senses for a long time.

After finishing their meal, the two were still in a daze, and left in a daze.

The news of Su Ningning's pregnancy gradually spread to all her relatives and friends.

Ji's parents, Lin Jiajia and a group of friends came to visit one after another.

Everyone who arrived noticed that Su Ningning had a rosy complexion and was beaming with joy.

It seems that pregnancy had almost no effect on her.

In contrast, Su Xingbai looked much more haggard.

Although we hired a professional postpartum nanny early on to take care of our daily needs around the clock.

But Ji's mother was still worried, so she started bringing all kinds of tonics to their door every few days.

Sometimes when it gets late, we simply stay overnight at the villa.

Su Xingbai remained silent and did not object.

Once it happened, it happened again. After one or two times, Ji's mother simply moved into the villa, intending to stay until the baby was born.

Out of consideration for his reputation, Ji's father did not stay there, but he would come to visit from time to time.

Perhaps it's because they're getting older, but the two of them are growing to love children more and more these days.

Everyone is full of anticipation for the baby in Su Ningning's belly.

Seeing that her mother was staying with Su Ningning, Ji Qingyuan decided to move in as well during her vacation.

He spends his days chatting with Su Ningning to relieve her boredom.

Su Xingbai tacitly agreed.

Now, only Ji's father was left alone in the Ji family home, looking at the empty and desolate house.

A few days later, he simply lowered his pride and shamelessly approached Su's parents, saying that he wanted to move in and stay for a few days.

Su's parents naturally agreed.

This temporary stay can turn into a long-term commitment.

At this point, the entire villa became completely lively.

Su's parents, Ji's parents, Ji Qingyuan, along with Su Xingbai and Su Ningning, the whole family huddled together in a lively atmosphere.
