Shen Feiwan was slowly sipping her porridge when her phone screen, which was on the table, suddenly vibrated. It was a voice message from Chen Youen.

She swiped the screen and selected speech-to-text.

It turns out that a few days ago, when Chen Youen was driving to the airport, she left a small bag in Chen Youen's car on her way home.

No sooner had I finished reading that message than Chen Youen sent a second one.

Shen Feiwan was about to continue transcribing the text when her fingertip accidentally pressed the play button.

Chen Youen's clear voice rang out in the living room: "I didn't know if it was something important, so I opened it to look. It looks like there's some anti-inflammatory medicine inside. Are you sick? Should I bring you this medicine?"

In fact, Shen Feiwan could have easily cut off the audio halfway through, but she didn't, because doing so would have only made things more obvious.

As expected, Lin Xiaoyan and Shen Mo looked at Chen Youen at the same time after hearing her voice message, and their voices almost overlapped: "What illness does Wanwan have?"

Shen Feiwan said calmly, "It's nothing serious, I just have tonsillitis."

After saying that, she picked up her phone, pressed the voice button, and replied to Chen Youen: "No need to trouble yourself, my cold is almost gone. You can bring this bag to me when we meet another day, anyway, there's nothing important in it, I'm not in a hurry to use it."

Actually, this wasn't an anti-inflammatory drug for treating tonsillitis, but rather a medication for treating her endometritis.

However, this matter cannot be known to the family or Lin Xiaoyan at the moment.

She didn't want Lin Xiaoyan to have an easy time, and she did want Lin Xiaoyan to hate her, but she hadn't achieved her goal yet, so she couldn't break ties with him too early.

Of course, he shouldn't know about the pregnancy.

After hearing her explanation, Shen Mo and Lin Xiaoyan indeed didn't ask any more questions.

Lin Xiaoyan quickly changed the subject, "Does Wanwan have any other plans for today?"

Shen Feiwan looked up at him. "Originally, there was a plan." She paused, her tone light and airy. "But since I don't need to worry about my second brother's affairs, I haven't made any arrangements."

Lin Xiaoyan chuckled softly, his eyes filled with undisguised doting affection as he looked at Shen Feiwan, "Then how about Wanwan clears her time for me today?"

Shen Feiwan raised an eyebrow, a half-smile curving her lips. "Fine, you've already taken the leave anyway."

Lin Xiaoyan's smile deepened, clearly indicating that he was in a very good mood.

Seeing the two interacting, Shen Mo sighed and said, "You two were already close before. Now that you've decided to get married, take this time to nurture your relationship."

"I will, teacher," Lin Xiaoyan replied gently.

“Okay, you guys chat.” Shen Mo stood up. “I have to go to work today. It’s almost time for me to leave.”

After Shen Mo left, Shen Feiwan leaned back lazily and asked Lin Xiaoyan without any politeness, "What do you want to do with me?"

Lin Xiaoyan looked at Shen Feiwan, smiling gently and mysteriously, "You'll find out when the time comes."

Shen Feiwan was too lazy to ask further; she wasn't interested in whatever Lin Xiaoyan wanted to do anyway.

She deliberately ate her breakfast slowly and methodically. Even after Shen Mo had changed his clothes, shaved, and left, she was still slowly drinking the last mouthful of porridge.

Lin Xiaoyan didn't urge her. He just sat opposite her, looking at her intently, without even taking out his phone to look at it. It was as if every little movement of hers was worth his full attention.

Shen Feiwan ignored his gaze and pushed her bowl forward after finishing the last bite of porridge. "I'm going upstairs to change my clothes and put on some makeup. You can tidy up here."

Her tone was as matter-of-fact as if she were ordering a servant around.

Lin Xiaoyan wasn't annoyed at all by Shen Feiwan's bossy attitude. He pushed up his glasses and his eyes curved slightly. "Does Wanwan think of me as a maid?"

“I don’t have a nanny,” Shen Feiwan stood up, looking down at him condescendingly. “If you’re not going to do it, then leave it. I’ll do it myself. Just wait.”

“Go ahead,” Lin Xiaoyan said, walking to the dining table to start clearing the dishes. Her voice was indulgent. “You’re beautiful even without makeup. Just dress simply.”

Shen Feiwan ignored him and entered the elevator without looking back.

Half an hour later, when she came downstairs again, the dining table had been cleaned up again.

Lin Xiaoyan was pulling down the rolled-up sleeves of his shirt. He was very fair-skinned, and his wrist bones gleamed with a cold white light in the sunlight.

This action made Shen Feiwan vaguely think of Bo Junxing. There was a time when he cooked and washed dishes in Nancheng.

However, this was only a momentary lapse in concentration, and Shen Feiwan quickly regained her composure. "Let's go."

She walked out the door first, followed closely by Lin Xiaoyan.

The driver was already waiting by the car, and immediately opened the back door when they came out.

Lin Xiaoyan reached out to protect the car roof, and Shen Feiwan accepted this kindness without hesitation, bending down and getting into the car.

"Aren't you going to ask me where I'm going? You're just coming with me now?" Lin Xiaoyan asked Shen Feiwan after getting into the car.

Shen Feiwan closed her eyes to rest, a mocking smile curving her lips. "Are you going to sell me out?"

Lin Xiaoyan's voice lowered, as if she felt aggrieved, "You always argue with me."

"Then I'll shut up."

After saying this, Shen Feiwan indeed stopped talking and ignored Lin Xiaoyan's attempts to engage her in conversation, as if the person sitting next to her was just a cloud of air.

The shadows of the trees outside the car window cast dappled light on her face, making her profile appear even more aloof and beautiful.

Looking at this aloof and beautiful 'girl next door', Lin Xiaoyan chuckled and leaned closer, "Wanwan is really ignoring me?"

Shen Feiwan didn't respond to him for a long time. "You're the one who complains that my words are harsh, and you're the one who wants me to shut up. You're really hard to please."

"Wanwan," Lin Xiaoyan chuckled, his voice deep and gentle, with a hint of coaxing, "I'm very easy to please now, just coax me a little."

Shen Feiwan kept her eyes closed. "When my second brother comes back, maybe I can comfort you."

She pulled her coat tighter around herself. "Now, I want to sleep. Don't bother me."

After speaking, Shen Feiwan turned her head away and fell silent again.

Perhaps due to her pregnancy, Shen Feiwan, who used to not get carsick, felt drowsy every time she rode in a car these past two times.

She fell asleep shortly afterward.

She didn't know how much time had passed when Lin Xiaoyan woke her up, "Wanwan..."

When Shen Feiwan opened her eyes, she felt a warm touch on the back of her hand; Lin Xiaoyan was gently patting it.

She was disgusted and immediately pulled her hand back.

Lin Xiaoyan frowned slightly. "We've arrived."

Shen Feiwan shifted her gaze to the window and discovered that the car was parked in front of a jewelry store.

She frowned. "What does this mean?"

“We’re getting married soon,” Lin Xiaoyan said, adjusting his cuffs, “so naturally I’m here to buy you jewelry.”
