2471 Willingly
As for that man with an extraordinary aura, it was obvious that he was a wealthy person. He was not someone to be trifled with. When he glanced over, his gaze was cold and filled with killing intent. When he looked over, it was as if they were just ants in his eyes. He could easily deal with them.
She was apologizing, but Hou Zi didn’t even look at her. He retracted his gaze indifferently and saw that Xia Yiwei was eating her dessert. His cold expression changed drastically. He instantly became a filial husband.
“Baby, the doctor said that you can’t have too many desserts. You have to be careful of gestational diabetes. You need to control your sugar intake. It can’t be too high. You just ate one portion, so you can’t eat any more today.”
He coaxed Xia Yiwei before taking the dessert away. He was still worried, so he took the small spoon that still had cake on it. Before Xia Yiwei could say anything, he finished the dessert himself.
Ye Jian felt that there was no need for her to argue with the young lady beside her.
The couple’s relationship was so good that no one could interfere. She was thinking too much.
In the past, Xia Yiwei didn’t have a preference for sweet things, but for some reason, she started craving them after she got pregnant. When she saw her favorite cake entering Hou Zi’s stomach, she gritted her teeth and pinched Hou Zi’s muscular arm with her slender fingers. “By the time I give birth, you’ll gain at least 20 catties.
“I’m giving you a heads-up. I don’t like fat men. You need to maintain your figure.”
Ye Jian, who was sitting beside Xia Yiwei, tactfully picked up the business newspaper on the table and started reading it. At this moment, it was inconvenient for her to disturb them.
“We’ll talk about it when we go back.” Hou Zi hugged his wife’s shoulders and kissed Xia Yiwei’s cheek gently and attentively. “Little Ye won’t be coming home with us later. Let’s talk business first.”
…
Xia Yiwei removed the strong arm on her shoulder and smiled at Ye Jian, who was reading the newspaper, without changing her expression. “Don’t worry about me.”
She pushed the untouched dessert in front of Ye Jian, who had placed the newspaper in front of her. “Eat some dessert. We’ll talk while eating.”
Ye Jian had only met up with Ye Zhifan for less than half an hour. It was almost noon and time for lunch.
After eating a small plate of dessert, Hou Zi helped Xia Yiwei up. His movements were so gentle as if his wife was a fragile porcelain doll. “Get up slowly. Be careful not to hit your stomach. The floor of this place is a little slippery. If I’m not accompanying you, you’re not allowed to come alone.”
His domineering tone was unquestionable, but it sounded pleasant to the ears.
“Did you see that? He treasures his wife. You never learn. You think that a man will stare at your breasts and climb into your bed!”
When she reached the door, Ye Jian heard the lady in the black dress lecturing the lady in the red dress. There were four people at the table. The most unruly person was the lady in the red dress. She was the most beautiful and presumptuous one.
“How could I have known that? That guy doesn’t have any taste!”
“Shut up. Don’t get killed without knowing it!”
The door of the cafe closed, cutting off the voice of the lady in the black dress. Ye Jian didn’t know if Hou Zi heard it or not, but when she saw that the couple didn’t take it to heart, she forgot about it.
When they arrived at the private room of the restaurant and Hou Zi left, Xia Yiwei smiled at Ye Jian and said, “Incidents like the one in the cafe earlier happen a lot. Hou Zi would take action in the past, but he knows how to restrain himself now. He’s afraid and knows that I’m ruthless. I’ll be able to survive without him. Hence, he doesn’t dare to get his hands dirty anymore.”
