Chapter 974: Chapter 974: This Isn’t the First Time, So Why Are You Still So Nervous?

She let out a small cry of pain, her brows knitted tightly.

Mo Chuxi’s nerves were suddenly on high alert, tense and tight.

"Xinxin, what’s wrong? Stomach pain? Is it time? Is it really premature labor? It’s all my fault, I shouldn’t have brought you out at this time. Don’t be afraid, darling, nothing will happen, I’ll immediately..."

"Chuxi."

Just as Mo Chuxi was fumbling to pick up Yan Xinxin, he heard her call his name in a calm tone.

He lifted his worried, handsome face, only to see Yan Xinxin smiling slightly.

"Is the baby kicking you?"

He slightly loosened his taut nerves and asked tentatively.

Yan Xinxin smiled, pursing her lips, reaching out to pinch Mo Chuxi’s ear.

"Yes, your son is kicking me. It’s not the first time, why are you still so nervous?"

"Yan Xinxin."

Looking at her lighthearted smile, Mo Chuxi seriously lifted his somber gaze and pinched her small face.

"Don’t scare me like this next time!"

"How did I scare you? It really is your son kicking me."

Yan Xinxin blinked her pure and beautiful cat-like eyes, looking innocent.

Mo Chuxi’s face turned cold, like a poker face.

"Yan Xinxin, be careful after the baby is born."

"After the baby is born, I still have to do postpartum recovery."

"Then be careful after the recovery!"

"..."

Yan Xinxin stood there dumbly, lifting her hand to touch her belly, her delicate brows furrowing tightly.

"Babies, did you hear that? Your dad is bullying mom! Don’t pay attention to this bad dad!"

As she spoke, she withdrew her hand and turned her back.

Mo Chuxi chuckled softly and quickly caught up.

"My dear, XiXi Number One was wrong, don’t be mad. Being mad won’t look pretty."

He joked, catching up with Yan Xinxin’s steps, raising his hand to wrap around her still slender shoulder, sticking to her affectionately.

Yan Xinxin raised her hand to push him away, but her small hand was held instead.

She continued to push, and he got even closer. After some back and forth, Yan Xinxin finally relaxed her brows, smiling happily. The two of them strolled hand in hand toward the sakura forest...

Mo Qingning is experiencing her first romance, and Xiao Yize is the first boy she ever liked, the only one existing in her girlish heart, and indeed her first love.

At this moment, the two walked side by side, so close they could almost feel the heartbeat from his left chest, but...

Mo Qingning slightly lowered her eyes, seeing Xiao Yize’s hand resting by his leg.

His hand is beautiful, exceptionally beautiful. The first time she saw Xiao Yize, her gaze was drawn to his hand.

The catalyst for falling in love with someone can be many things.

What Mo Qingning didn’t expect was that she fell in love with someone because of Xiao Yize’s beautiful hands.

She really wanted... wanted very much... to hold his hand, wherever they went.

Just like he said before, holding her hand and never letting go again.

While lost in thought and imagination, suddenly her right hand felt warm.

She snapped back to reality, in her line of vision, seeing Xiao Yize gently taking her hand with his beautiful, fair left hand, his well-defined fingers gently spreading hers, interlocking their fingers.

"Are you interested in going to an interesting place with me?"

"Eh? An interesting place?"

Mo Qingning blushed, raising her eyes only to meet Xiao Yize’s gentle gaze.

His thin lips parted slightly, his handsome face carrying a mysterious smile, he gripped her hand tighter.

"Come with me."

Xiao Yize said, pulling Mo Qingning along, not knowing that his every word and action was like nourishing spring water, causing the odd seed that Mo Qingning admired to bloom...

"Achoo—"

On the other side, Selena, holding hands with Xu Nuo, sneezed.

"Caught a cold?"

Xu Nuo asked with concern.

Selena smiled and shook her head at Xu Nuo, then paused in her steps, her beautiful eyes vigilantly scanning the surroundings, her cute ears twitching.

Xu Nuo was puzzled.

"What’s wrong?"
