Super Soldier in the City-Chapter 1970 - 1003: Pregnancy Anxiety Disorder
Li Yifei held his second daughter, Li Yixiang, and came over to Song Lianyao. The little girl had just heard Li Yifei was going to see her brother and sister and wanted to tag along. Seeing them, Li Yixiang immediately became incredibly happy.
Li Yifei really liked the personalities of his two daughters, and this should be credited to their mothers’ upbringing. The Li family is not just him and his wives. To continue flourishing in the future, it’ll depend on these children. If they excel, the Li family can keep growing and developing. People say wealth doesn’t last beyond three generations; the heirs are often not as outstanding as the founders, which is somewhat one-sided, but a true noble family indeed needs to cultivate generation after generation. Haven’t you seen that the eldest and second daughters are already receiving comprehensive training in moral, intellectual, physical, and aesthetic education? The Li family has hired many teachers, some of whom are even experts.
But they also cater to each child’s different interests and hobbies. Li Yifei generally doesn’t worry about these things, as the women at home do the planning, which saves him a lot of effort. After teasing his daughter and the two children for a while, Li Yifei went over to Jiang Ningxiang’s place.
After having the child, the little lady seemed to change all of a sudden, carrying a sense of mature charm that was incredibly alluring. These days, whenever Li Yifei saw her, an urge surged from within, wanting to put the child aside and have a vigorous battle.
One night, Li Yifei sneaked into Jiang Ningxiang’s room and enjoyed suckling benefits, but afterward, Jiang Ningxiang refused him because her milk supply was just enough for the child. As a result, the unscrupulous father finished it all that night, leaving the baby hungry the following day.
So, when Li Yifei stroked his chin with a wandering gaze, Jiang Ningxiang immediately took the baby to the bedroom to nurse, leaving Li Yifei unfulfilled, rubbing his hands as he approached the bedroom.
"Hubby..." Jiang Ningxiang looked at him awkwardly, gently biting her lip, and only managed to say after some time, "Son, look at this bad dad, he wants to steal your food!"
Sure enough, Li Yifei looked up at the ceiling, shaking his head with a smile and said, "Go ahead and feed. I’ll just wander around." 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞
"Alright, hubby. See you later, I won’t see you off." Jiang Ningxiang escaped trouble and sighed in relief, yet she felt a bit of longing. After all, she hadn’t done that kind of thing for ten months, and even after giving birth, she’s only tried a few times, not enough to quench her thirst. But glancing at the baby sucking hard in her arms, Jiang Ningxiang pursed her lips and smiled sweetly.
Li Yifei wasn’t without things to do. Precisely because there’s so much, he doesn’t even know what to tackle first. Fortunately, the wives at home are incredibly capable, so he doesn’t need to fuss over various aspects.
Li Yifei wandered to the garage, just planning to grab a car and take a spin, when he saw Xu Yingying and Xu Shanshan returning from outside, driving a red Ferrari. As the car entered the garage, the sisters also spotted Li Yifei and were briefly startled before hopping out and heading toward him.
"What have you been up to?" Li Yifei asked.
Xu Shanshan made faces at Li Yifei but didn’t answer him. Xu Yingying, on the other hand, seemed slightly bashful, making Li Yifei even more puzzled. He walked over, wrapped an arm around Xu Yingying’s waist, leaned in to sniff, and said, "Went to have hotpot?"
"Are you a bloodhound?" Xu Yingying glared and said.
Li Yifei laughed heartily and said, "Turns out you went sneakily eating."
"We didn’t. If I wanted hotpot, I could have it at home anytime. Why bother going out to sneak? I think you’re the one sneak-eating, reeking of women’s perfume!" Xu Yingying retorted.
Li Yifei chuckled and said, "How is it sneaky? They are my wives, so if I eat, it’s openly and rightfully."
"Shameless!" Xu Yingying glared at him, handed him her bag, and said, "Why sneaking around in the garage?"
"Picking up my wife!" Li Yifei puffed his chest and said.
"I won’t believe it!" Xu Yingying said, though she said she didn’t believe it, she was quite happy being picked up by Li Yifei.
Walking ahead, Xu Shanshan swayed her hips, and hearing this, she turned back, "You two, still at it? Go home if you want to be lovey-dovey, don’t forget there are others present."
"You don’t count as others!" Xu Yingying replied, and Li Yifei added, "Exactly, you’re like half an insider."
"You! You’re bullying me!" Xu Shanshan made a move to throw the bag at Li Yifei, but Xu Yingying quickly sidestepped, saying, "Stop messing around, hit the baby, and I’ll spank both your butts."
"Haha!" Li Yifei gleefully made a face at Xu Yingying, while Xu Shanshan puffed her cheeks, harrumphed, and said, "I give up, fine, flaunt your love all you want. I’m out of here then."
With that, Xu Shanshan swayed her hips and walked away.
Li Yifei and Xu Yingying didn’t chase after them and soon were left behind. Suddenly, Li Yifei asked, "Honey, what exactly were you guys up to?"
"Nothing really."
"Then... no way, there must be something!" Li Yifei’s detective instincts kicked in, and he scrutinized Xu Yingying from head to toe. He leaned in to sniff her, but naturally found nothing. Fortunately, Xu Yingying couldn’t stand his puppy-like antics, pushed him a bit, and said, "We just... just went shopping for baby products with Shanshan."
Gah, Li Yifei’s eyes immediately widened. A few seconds later, he hugged Xu Yingying, laughing, "My dear wife, it’s only been a month or two, and we don’t even know if it’s a boy or a girl. What’s the rush?"
These words made Xu Yingying feel a bit embarrassed instead. She playfully punched Li Yifei’s shoulder, saying, "Can’t I just look around? And you’re teasing me! Hmph, it’s all your fault, making me pregnant. You have no idea how careful I am every day now, just afraid of bumping into things and hurting the baby!"
"Good wife, I wasn’t teasing you. Next time you want to go shopping, call me, and I’ll carry the bags and protect you," Li Yifei quickly soothed.
Xu Yingying finally snorted softly, pouting, "That’s more like it. If you dare laugh at me, I’ll kick your child. Let’s see if you feel bad."
"I feel bad, I feel bad. How could I not? I’m heartbroken not just for the child, but even more for you!" Li Yifei quickly said.
Only then did Xu Yingying ease up. As the two stepped out of the garage, Xu Yingying said, "It came a bit suddenly. I’m actually not prepared, but this seems like something that should have happened long ago. Sigh, these days I’ve been feeling so chaotic, more stressful than dealing with complex company issues."
"My good wife, don’t be anxious. Let’s go with the flow. Since we have the child, we’ll have it. If not, don’t worry. Feeling awkward now is normal. After all, having a child will change you for a long time, even for the rest of your life. But think about it, how wonderful mothers are, and you, Xu Yingying, are going to become a wonderful mother."
"You sure know how to talk!" Xu Yingying leaned her head on Li Yifei’s shoulder, gently nuzzling, and said, "Actually, it doesn’t sound bad. A little life growing day by day inside me, and after it’s born, I’ll get to watch it grow and change every day, from not speaking to babbling, to growing up like Li Yuxiang and Li Yufei."
"Exactly, and we don’t even have to worry about the child not being good-looking. You’re so beautiful, and I’m so handsome. The child will definitely be exceptional!" Li Yifei said proudly.
Xu Yingying deliberately glanced at Li Yifei and said, "I think you better hold back those words. If the child looks like me, great, but if it looks like you, I can’t guarantee it won’t turn out wonky."
"Huh? So you’re indirectly calling me ugly!"
"That’s what worries me the most." Xu Yingying said earnestly, nodding hard at Li Yifei.
Li Yifei immediately protested, yelling that he needed to punish his disobedient wife. Naturally, Xu Yingying wouldn’t agree, but in the end, the punishment turned into a kiss full of love, and Xu Yingying finally agreed.
As Xu Yingying transitions from a woman to a soon-to-be mother, her mindset is quietly changing, and this change is positively developing. Li Yifei also realizes the importance of providing emotional comfort to Xu Yingying; otherwise, she might experience significant mood swings.
After taking Xu Yingying home, Li Yifei called upon the family’s steward to arrange for a clever and capable woman to care for Xu Yingying. He had discussed this with Xu Yingying earlier, and she had agreed.
After dinner, Li Yifei leisurely wandered around outside like a lord, chatted with a few security guards for a bit, and as night fell, he slipped into Chu Xiaoyao’s villa; they were in for a romantic night together.
Upon entering Chu Xiaoyao’s room, before even getting upstairs, Li Yifei heard Chu Xiaoyao calling out, something like "Xue’er don’t rush, I’m coming to save you, step back first." As Li Yifei ascended the stairs, he heard Chu Xiaoyao shouting, "Haha, pentakill, I’m going to be unstoppable."
Li Yifei immediately understood that these two girls were playing games together. While it wasn’t surprising for Chu Xiaoyao to play games, seeing Michelle play was quite unexpected. Li Yifei even thought he might have heard wrong. But upon reaching the top and seeing the two computers side by side with the two people in front, he confirmed it was indeed Michelle gaming with Chu Xiaoyao.
Glancing at their scores, Michelle was playing as support, and Chu Xiaoyao as ADC. Chu Xiaoyao had already gotten over twenty kills and was well-equipped, while Michelle surprisingly hadn’t died much either, with over twenty assists, and her gear wasn’t bad. They were so engrossed in their game that they didn’t even hear Li Yifei’s footsteps.
So Li Yifei stood there with his arms crossed behind the two, watching his treasured ones passionately immersed in their game. It was the first time Li Yifei saw the usually shy Michelle playing a game, and the first time he saw her so animatedly and passionately engaged.
Turns out, this girl was quite into gaming, and it seemed like she really enjoyed it. Li Yifei didn’t think gaming was bad; if it could bring out another side of a person, that was great too.
