The spacious, bright hall was filled with a solemn and hushed atmosphere. Xu Yingying and Lin Weiye stood side by side, their gaze fixed on their adorable daughter, Lin Xinyi. The couple waited expectantly for their daughter to speak, as if time had frozen in that moment.

However, as time passed, Lin Xinyi kept her head down, biting her lip, her brows slightly furrowed, as if she was thinking hard about something. A trace of anxiety and helplessness gradually emerged on her small face, which made people feel pity.

Finally, after a long silence, Lin Xinyi slowly raised her head, her eyes slightly red and tears welling up in them. Clearly, she had been thinking for a long time and still hadn't figured out how to take care of her mother. Seeing the tears about to burst out, she quickly covered her mouth with her small hands, trying to hold back her sobs.

But in the end, emotion overcame reason, and Lin Xinyi burst into tears, tears pouring down like a flood. This sudden cry startled Xu Yingying and Lin Weiye. They looked at each other, at a loss for what to do.

After Xu Yingying realized what was happening, she hurried forward, gently stroked Lin Xinyi's hair, and asked softly, "Oh, my dear little Yi, why are you crying all of a sudden? Can you tell me what happened?"

Lin Xinyi sobbed and replied intermittently: "Wuwuwu... Wuwuwu... Wuwuwu... Mom, I... Wuwuwu... I really can't think of... how to... take good care of you... Wuwuwu..." Listening to their daughter's tender and sincere words, Xu Yingying and Lin Weiye felt both moved and helpless.

They looked at each other, their eyes revealing a complex emotion. In fact, when Lin Weiye said that he wanted his daughter to take care of her mother, he just said it casually. He didn't expect such a young child to be able to truly take on this responsibility.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xinyi took this matter so seriously that she was deeply troubled by it and fell into endless self-blame. Looking at their innocent, kind-hearted and sincere daughter, the couple didn't know what to do. They wanted to laugh but also felt heartbroken and wanted to cry.

Lin Weiye hurried forward, gently stroked the sobbing Lin Xinyi's hair, and said softly, "Xinyi, my dear, if you can just listen to your parents' instructions, you'll be doing your mother a great favor."

Hearing her father's words, Lin Xinyi raised her tear-stained face, her eyes full of doubt, and stared at her father and asked, "Is this really true?"

Seeing his daughter so innocent and adorable, Lin Weiye nodded solemnly and replied firmly, "Of course it's true! My little Yike, you must believe in daddy."

After receiving her father's affirmative answer, Lin Xinyi seemed a little worried. She turned her head and looked at her mother with her big watery eyes, asking again, "Mom, did Dad lie to Xinyi?"

Xu Yingying, who was standing by, saw Xinyi's expression and thought that the child was extremely funny. She couldn't help but burst out laughing, but then she realized that she should give her daughter a positive response at this time, so she quickly put away her smile and gently replied, "Silly child, how could Daddy possibly lie to our baby Xinyi!"

Hearing what her mother said, Lin Xinyi finally burst into laughter and said happily: "Well, I will definitely be obedient!" After that, she nodded vigorously.

Xu Yingying looked at Lin Xinyi's face, which was smiling brightly even though there were tears in the corners of her eyes, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart that this child was really lovable and pitiful.

Because Xu Yingying had specifically instructed the nanny about this, she was able to eat the meal that night. However, the restriction of not adding cooking oil did make the dishes lose their usual tempting taste.

Lin Weiye watched his wife being forced to eat such bland, tasteless meals, and he couldn't help but feel a deep sense of guilt. If she hadn't been pregnant, how could she have suffered such dietary injustice? He missed the time when his wife could enjoy delicious food to her heart's content.

As night fell and the sky was dotted with stars, the couple prepared to go to bed. However, just before going to sleep, they once again had a heated discussion about pregnancy.

Lin Weiye gently held Xu Yingying in his arms, gently stroked her slightly bulging belly, and said affectionately: "My dear wife, you have worked so hard during this period. From the moment I learned that you were pregnant, I knew that you would have to endure many physical and psychological changes and pressures. Now even your daily diet is subject to many restrictions, and you can't enjoy delicious food as freely as before. But please believe me, after our baby is born safely, everything will slowly get better. By then, I will take you to taste all kinds of delicacies to make up for your suffering now." After that, he gently kissed Xu Yingying on the forehead.

Xu Yingying sat quietly on the sofa, her hand unconsciously caressing her slightly swollen belly, silently contemplating this unexpected arrival. Although she was initially stunned and overwhelmed by the news of her pregnancy, she had come to terms with it after a period of adjustment. What puzzled her was that her diet and daily routine had been normal before, so why had the pregnancy symptoms suddenly become so intense?

Just as Xu Yingying was immersed in her own thoughts, she heard her husband's concerned words: "Honey, how do you feel? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere? If you feel uncomfortable, please tell me!" Hearing these warm and caring words, Xu Yingying couldn't help but feel a sweet warmth in her heart. However, she deliberately pretended to be indifferent and responded lightly: "Huh, it's good that you know I'm working hard. Let's see if you dare to bully me in the future!"

When Lin Weiye heard this, he hurriedly defended himself: "How could I bully you..." But before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Xu Yingying: "You said you didn't bully me, but look at you, aren't you talking about me now!" There was a hint of grievance in Xu Yingying's coquettish tone.

Lin Weiye was stunned. What he had just done was purely a stress reaction and he had no intention of bullying his wife at all.
