When they reached their hotel room, Yan Rusheng quickly made way for the bathroom . When he finished, he found Xuxu sitting on the couch in the outer room . She looked starkly pale as she clutched her belly .
The expression on his face immediately fell as he hurried towards her . "What's wrong?"
"My stomach is hurting . " Xuxu's lips turned pale too, and she was perspiring from her forehead . She stretched her hand to tightly hold his arm .
Instead of his arms, Yan Rusheng felt as if it was his heart that was being squeezed . He used his hand to tightly hold Xuxu before scooping her up . He carried her to their room and gently put her on the bed .
He tugged a blanket and tenderly draped it over her .
"I'll get you a glass of warm water . "

He turned around, and Xuxu suddenly grabbed his wrist . "Ah Sheng . "
As she grabbed his warm hand, she suddenly felt a stinging sensation in her nose . Her eyes glistened .
Yan Rusheng turned around to look at her—his heart ached . "What's wrong?"
"I'm feeling cold . " Xuxu choked on her words . "Can you not leave?"
"I'm just going to get a glass of warm water, alright?" Yan Rusheng lightly patted her hand, speaking gently as he could .
"Mm . " Xuxu nodded and relinquished her grip .
She watched as Yan Rusheng left the room . She stretched her hand under the blanket and stroked her belly with a heavy heart .

An indescribable sorrow struck her; Why was it so difficult for her to have a child?
Was it just like what Grandfather said? That she should let nature take its own course, for impatiently rushing it would only produce the opposite of the desired results .
But how could she be certain that her grandfather said that just to console her?
Yan Rusheng returned with a glass of water and placed it on the bedside drawer . He sat near the edge of the bed and helped Xuxu sit up and rest against the bed frame . He reached for the glass of water and passed it to her . "Drink it up it should relieve your pain . "
Xuxu nodded and slowly sipped the hot water .
Her other hand was clutching at her belly and her face still remained pale .
Yan Rusheng suddenly got up and took off his bathrobes . He got into bed and sat beside Xuxu . He took her hand away and put his palm on Xuxu's belly instead . Then he slowly massaged her belly .
The warmth emanating from his palm seemed to work . Perhaps it was Xuxu's mind playing tricks on her, but the pain seemed to have alleviated .
She rested against his chest, and a sudden pang of disappointment hit her once again . She wanted to confide in him and tell him her worries—how she had yearned for his child .
Sigh .
Yan Rusheng gloomily sighed in her ear and it made Xuxu snap out of her thoughts . She turned to look at him . "What happened?"
"Nothing much . " Yan Rusheng reassured her as he gave her a gentle kiss on her forehead . "Sleep now . "
"Crap!" In the future, he would need to take note of the days she would be unavailable .
The quack Lu Yinan said that in order to make babies, they would need a relaxed and comfortable environment . Hence, he had made plans in advance regarding this 'baby project' and brought her overseas . A change of environment should lead to a change in her mood, and this could be their honeymoon as well .
But despite thoughtful planning, it had slipped his mind to take her menstrual period into consideration .
Xuxu slipped back under the blanket and she flipped her body so that she could face Yan Rusheng . Her thigh accidentally brushed against a certain sensitive part of Yan Rusheng's body .
A seemingly comfortable yet agonizing groan suddenly sounded from the top of her head .
She knew where she had accidentally brushed against, and her face flushed crimson at the thought of it . She decided to turn away from him .
A pair of hands wound tightly around her waist as his lips stroked her ear tenderly . "Xuxu, Xuxu…"
He repeatedly whispered, and Xuxu seemed to have melted .
