Chapter 1153: After All, It Was Made with Heart
After a while, Ye Xinluo’s voice came through, "I was just changing the little one’s diaper, your tone sounds tired, is something serious going on?"
"No..."
He glanced at the pile of paperwork, rubbing his forehead in frustration, "I might be a little late coming home, just tell the kitchen what you want to eat and let them make it."
"Okay, got it."
Suddenly, she remembered something, her tone slightly elevated, "Was that soup at lunch made by you? Why does it taste so different from before?"
Well... it probably wasn’t made by him!
He knew exactly what soup Ye Xinluo was referring to, but he said nothing about it, "Do you like it?"
"I love it, absolutely love it! I’m telling you, after my postpartum recovery, teach me how to make it, I liked it after just one try."
The taste of something made by one’s mother would surely be wonderful, seeing as it was made carefully...
For a moment, Beichen Rui didn’t quite know what to say, feebly appeasing her, "Let’s talk about it later. You’re still recovering post-birth, so try not to leave the room too often, and don’t stay glued to your phone. Rest in bed."
"Got it, got it. I’ve noticed you’re becoming increasingly nagging! I just got off the phone with Shanshan, and when I realized you were at the office, I wanted to ask if you were done working. Since you still have work, I won’t disturb you, just remember to come home early and not work too late."
"Hmm..."
After hanging up the call, he placed the phone aside and went back to focusing on work.
The promise to come home early was missed; by the time he wrapped up his tasks, it was already past eight in the evening.
During this time, Ye Xinluo asked him when he’d be coming home, to which he simply replied that the work wasn’t over yet and he might be home late.
The door to the office opened, Mo Han entered carrying the takeout he had ordered and placed it on the desk, "Eat something first, it’s already so late, you should head back now. Xinluo is still recovering, don’t leave her alone at home."
"Hmm..." Beichen Rui nodded.
"Have you set the date for your wedding with Qin Yin?"
"Not yet. We’ve decided to wait until the baby is born to hold the ceremony." Mentioning this, Mo Han pulled up a chair and asked, "Rui, did Xinluo have severe morning sickness when she was pregnant? Any tips for easing it? Qin Yin’s reaction is pretty strong over at my mom’s, I plan to take leave and accompany her after Xinluo’s recovery."
After thinking for a moment, Beichen Rui replied, "It wasn’t too bad. See what she wants to eat, try to accommodate her preferences, and avoid anything with strong smells, that might help a bit."
Mo Han appeared quite frustrated, propping his chin on one hand, "I don’t know if it’s a son or daughter yet, it’s already this troublesome, what am I going to do in a few months? It’s driving me crazy."
Feeling better after venting his frustration, he stood up, "Fill up your stomach and head home, Xinluo is alone with two kids there; the rest of us here can handle it, Xu Kun and I will take care."
...
Beichen Rui returned home, stepped into the room, and Ye Xinluo’s voice followed right after, "Why so late, have you eaten?"
"I have."
He sat down on the edge of the bed, "What did you eat tonight?"
"Not much really, I still can’t eat whatever I want right now. By the way, was the lunch soup made by you? Why does dinner taste so different too? It must have been cooked by the same person who made the lunch soup, right? I was curious about who it was, so I went downstairs to see, but they said the person had already left. What’s going on?"
