Married to Officer, Pregnant Specialist becomes the Winner!-Chapter 231 - 230: He Accepts It Willingly

Otherwise, even counting all the Gu Family members, the 10 amulets rewarded by the system were far from enough.

In the end, Gu Jia Ning had to buy some more from the system to let her mother take them back.

After Gu Jia Ning’s instructions, Yao Chunhua replied, "I know, dear. I have never forgotten the things you told me."

In fact, seeing Gu Jia Ning’s insistence, Yao Chunhua had a vague feeling of what it might be about.

After all, her daughter’s miraculous abilities had shown themselves since childhood, though her daughter had forgotten about them.

But she knew that whatever the daughter stressed was important.

At this time, the train station’s loudspeaker was already reminding passengers to board.

No matter how much you don’t want to, eventually you’ll have to part.

Yao Chunhua, carrying large bags, eventually boarded the train as her daughter looked on reluctantly.

"Mom..."

Gu Jia Ning called out, only to watch the train whistle ahead.

"Honey, let’s head back. Don’t worry. I’ll definitely take you and Xingxing, Yueyue back to Huaihua Village whenever there’s a chance," Sheng Zexi comforted as he put his arm around Gu Jia Ning’s shoulders.

"Okay."

Meanwhile, on the train, Yao Chunhua looked out the window at the daughter she left behind until she could no longer see her, then pulled back her gaze.

She wiped away tears from the corners of her eyes and began organizing the large bags she carried.

Although she had also carried large bags on her way here, the contents were different now.

Coming here, she brought all the Gu Family’s love and care for Ningning.

And going back, she’s taking Ningning’s love for her and the whole family with her.

...

It took Gu Jia Ning a full three days to recover after Yao Chunhua’s departure.

In the days that followed, Gu Jia Ning became busy.

The little Xingxing Yueyue at home didn’t require much of her attention; both were very well-behaved.

During the day, Grandma Sang took care of the two children.

At night, they slept in the same bed with Gu Jia Ning and Sheng Zexi.

Being so young, they occasionally woke up in the middle of the night, either to drink milk or because they had soiled themselves.

Things like this, as long as Sheng Zexi was around, he handled them all.

If the children needed milk and Gu Jia Ning was awake, they would be breastfed; if she was still asleep, Sheng Zexi would prepare formula for them.

He certainly would not wake Gu Jia Ning just to ensure the kids were breastfed.

For Sheng Zexi, although the children are his blood and very important, Gu Jia Ning is even more important.

Fortunately, both kids had agreeable personalities. Although they preferred breastfeeding, they didn’t reject formula, so whatever Sheng Zexi gave them, they drank.

Tonight, Sheng Zexi was sleeping when he heard soft murmurs from the bed.

He immediately opened his eyes.

Glancing at Gu Jia Ning and seeing she was still sound asleep, he moved even more quietly.

Looking beside him, he realized both kiddos were awake.

Both were opening their big eyes and looking at him.

The murmuring had come from Xingxing, the elder brother.

Sheng Zexi picked him up gently and whispered, "Shh, keep quiet, don’t wake up Mommy."

It seemed Xingxing understood because he stopped murmuring and instead gazed at his daddy with curious, almond-shaped eyes identical to Sheng Zexi’s.

Seeing him quiet down, Sheng Zexi sighed in relief.

He checked and found no accidents.

So he guessed Xingxing was hungry.

"Lie down here. I’ll quickly prepare the milk formula."

And so, Sheng Zexi started preparing the formula.

He moved quickly, proficient with tasks like holding the baby and preparing milk formula after more than a month of practice.

Soon enough, the formula was ready.

He held Xingxing in his arms and placed the bottle in his mouth.

Xingxing was indeed hungry; once the bottle was in, he began drinking eagerly.

Within minutes, the formula was finished.

And Xingxing was drowsy.

He laid Xingxing back on the bed and carefully covered him with a blanket.

Then he glanced over at Yueyue in the bed.

Yueyue seemed to have been patiently waiting for daddy.

At that moment, she smiled as she saw her daddy looking at her.

Seeing her smile melted Sheng Zexi’s heart.

He thought: between the son and the daughter, he definitely favored the daughter more.

She resembled Ningning so much and had a sweet smile.

While Xingxing...

Constantly had a serious expression, like a little old man.

However...

Both were good kids after all.

"Daddy’s sweet girl, are you hungry?"

"Daddy will prepare your formula milk right now."

Thus, Sheng Zexi quickly prepared another bottle of formula, then cradled his daughter to feed her.

Yueyue drank more delicately than her brother and took her time.

But as a dad, Sheng Zexi was patient.

After Yueyue finished drinking, Sheng Zexi faintly detected a smell.

He checked and found that his daughter had done her business.

Sheng Zexi quickly used hot water from the thermos to clean her with the towel specially for her, cleaned her, and dried her.

Then he wrapped her in a diaper and put her pants back on.

Throughout, Sheng Zexi was gentle.

Yueyue seemed quite comfortable.

In fact, she was beginning to feel sleepy.

So, by the time Sheng Zexi finished dressing her, Yueyue was already fast asleep.

He placed Yueyue next to Xingxing and tucked them both in.

After tidying up a bit, Sheng Zexi joined them on the bed and went back to sleep.

Because of Sheng Zexi’s gentle handling and the fact that the kids didn’t cry loudly, combined with Gu Jia Ning being a deep sleeper,

such nightly occurrences went unnoticed by Gu Jia Ning.

And throughout these nights, since the birth of their children, Sheng Zexi had gone through countless nights like this.

But Sheng Zexi never complained, and in fact, he cherished it.

He was always fulfilling his promise to Gu Jia Ning.

Which was, when Gu Jia Ning bore children, he would do his best to support and educate them.

-

Gu Jia Ning has truly been busy lately. Besides work, she was preparing for an upcoming lecture on PTSD at the Northwest Military Region.

The report Gu Jia Ning previously submitted had already received official approval.

Which led to this lecture now.

This lecture was being held at the Northwest Military Region.

At that time, doctors from other military regions would come to listen and learn.

Since the lecture would span three consecutive days, there was a lot for Gu Jia Ning to prepare.

Fortunately, she had prior experience from giving lectures in Beijing.

Finally, by mid-June, the lecture was held.

...

Li Tingxuan, carrying a backpack and luggage, walked into the Northwest Military Region.

He gazed at the military region ahead of him.

Li Tingxuan felt mixed emotions.

After Li Shuyao’s incident, both his grandfather and he had their movements restricted and have only recently regained their freedom.

However, since Li Shuyao was part of the Li Family and had leaked a lot of confidential information,

Even though it had nothing to do with the rest of the Li Family, it still had an impact.
