In This Life, I Will Extremely Pamper My Short-Lived Husband-Chapter 159 But Tuantuan is a Boy

Xu Jinzhi knew that Xie Yanchuan was not that kind of person, but she was really curious. What did that conflicted expression on Xie Yanchuan’s face mean?

Xie Yanchuan hesitated for a while, glanced at the salesperson beside him, and finally leaned closer to Xu Jinzhi, then whispered, "But Tuantuan is actually a boy."

He had noticed that when Xu Jinzhi said the little dress in her hand was pretty, and he had asked her to buy the same one, she had shown a face full of disdain, clearly thinking it was unattractive, even ugly.

Xie Yanchuan did not understand why. It was the same dress, so why was the smaller one pretty but the larger one not?

But it didn’t matter, perhaps it was just that his aesthetic sense was off.

However, Tuantuan being a boy meant it wasn’t just about aesthetics anymore; it was simply inappropriate for him to wear a little dress.

Xie Yanchuan was quite straightforward in his thinking—how could a boy wear a little dress?

But after hearing Xie Yanchuan’s words, Jinzhi didn’t have the mind to think about dresses anymore. She immediately widened her eyes in disbelief, staring at Yanchuan, "How did you know?"

How could Xie Yanchuan know that Tuantuan was a boy?

’Tuantuan’ as a nickname could be used for both boys and girls, and she definitely hadn’t revealed to Yanchuan that Tuantuan was a boy!

So how did Xie Yanchuan know?

As Xu Jinzhi looked at Xie Yanchuan, countless thoughts flashed through her mind in those brief moments.

Could it be that Xie Yanchuan had been reborn?

She was reborn herself, so it would make some sense if Xie Yanchuan were reborn too.

However, at this moment, Xie Yanchuan wasn’t aware of Xu Jin’s wild thoughts.

He blinked slightly, thinking to himself that he had seen it a few hours earlier during the ultrasound at the doctor’s.

He believed the doctor had seen it too, but according to regulations, the doctor couldn’t mention it, hence he had skipped that part.

Of course, he couldn’t tell Xu Jinzhi at that time either, as that was strictly prohibited. He knew that clearly; he could just tell her privately later.

But he was also unsure whether Xu Jinzhi really wanted to know; what if she didn’t want to know now and preferred the suspense until the baby was born?

So Xie Yanchuan hadn’t immediately told Xu Jinzhi. His plan was to wait for the right time and perhaps indirectly inquire about her thoughts on the matter.

If Xu Jinzhi wanted to know, then he would tell her. If she didn’t, then he would pretend to be unaware.

After all, the gender of the baby would naturally be known when the baby was born.

As for himself, Xie Yanchuan had never thought about whether the baby was a boy or a girl before today.

After all, regardless of the gender, it was his child, and that was unchangeable; he would love this baby just the same.

But for some reason, Xie Yanchuan felt that Xu Jinzhi was acting a bit strange, like there was something off about how she had put her concerns, but what was it?

She seemed only surprised that he knew Tuantuan was a boy, but showed no astonishment that Tuantuan was a boy.

Was it because knowing that Tuantuan was a boy was more shocking to her than knowing the baby’s gender now?

As they faced each other, Xu Jinzhi wore an expression that demanded Xie Yanchuan explain everything completely, otherwise she wouldn’t let it go.

Xie Yanchuan had no choice but to explain to Xu Jinzhi, "It was during the ultrasound that it was detected, and the doctor definitely saw it too, he just didn’t tell you."

"After all, as per the current regulations, it is explicitly prohibited. It’s just that I happened to understand the ultrasound imagery."

Xu Jinzhi’s eyes widened in disbelief, unable to accept that this was the truth. Had Xie Yanchuan not been reborn?

Seeing Xu Jinzhi’s shocked expression, Xie Yanchuan couldn’t help but feel a desire to laugh. She knew she could understand ultrasounds; shouldn’t she have realized earlier what she could deduce?

Did the saying "pregnancy makes one foolish" also apply to her?

Besides being puzzled that Xie Yanchuan wasn’t reborn, Xu Jinzhi was also astonished that he could directly discern the baby’s gender from the ultrasound.

Then, Xu Jinzhi remembered something else; if this Xie Yanchuan could understand it, then the Xie Yanchuan from their past life could as well.

During her antenatal care in her past life, Xie Yanchuan had never missed an appointment, yet he had never mentioned that he could tell the gender of the baby!

Xu Jinzhi was highly perplexed. Why hadn’t Xie Yanchuan mentioned this to her back then?

Why hadn’t he told her?

Xu Jinzhi was internally baffled but tried not to show too much on her face.

After a prolonged silent exchange, Xu Jinzhi managed a forced smile and awkwardly said, "So, that’s how it is."

Xie Yanchuan, observing Xu Jinzhi’s odd expression, wasn’t sure what to say, finding it hard to grasp her complex emotions.

Meanwhile, Xu Jinzhi continued to mutter softly, "So Tuantuan is a boy."

She purposely said this to prevent Xie Yanchuan from sensing anything was amiss.

Regarding the little dress she was holding, Xu Jinzhi had already handed it to Xie Yanchuan.

Xie Yanchuan thought Xu Jinzhi wanted him to put it back, and he was ready to hang the dress back in its place.

The salesperson, who had been standing by, hurriedly came forward to help.

But before she could take it from him, she heard that previously beautiful woman sharply say, "Why hang it back? We are buying it."

The vibrant woman had become chillingly glamorous due to her expressionless face.

Xie Yanchuan looked at Xu Jinzhi, a hint of surprise in his eyes, not understanding why she still wanted to buy it when they had just said Tuantuan was a boy.

Xu Jinzhi, noticing the confusion in Xie Yanchuan’s eyes, subtly raised her eyebrows and said earnestly, "So what if it’s a boy? Boys can wear dresses too."

"Babies are so young at that stage; no one can tell their gender just by their clothes, so no one will think it’s strange."

"And even if they do notice, they’ll just think the parents are playing a prank."

Xie Yanchuan didn’t know how to respond, and Xu Jinzhi didn’t wait for him to, continuing to walk forward.

Xie Yanchuan paused, hesitated, didn’t hang the dress back, and hurriedly followed her.

If Xie Yanchuan hadn’t caught on yet, then when Xu Jinzhi picked out two more dresses without saying a word to him, he was certain that Xu Jinzhi was angry.

But he still didn’t know why Xu Jinzhi was angry.
