The waiters served the dishes. Song Yu felt that Dynasty’s dishes were still much tastier than the ones in Li City.

“I’m not in the office these days so I don’t really know about your situation. Were you affected by the MU incident?” Song Yu asked. The construction and furnishing for MU were already completed.

“I’m still okay. It’s not possible that I’m totally unaffected by it. My business traffic was reduced by almost half of what I usually have.” Ruan Danchen used the chopsticks to pick some vegetables. “However, it’s fine. Many customers still trust me thanks to the court case. If it wasn’t for that, I’m afraid that I won’t be able to have the other half of it. Director Zhao would’ve fired me long ago. If there are still customers who trust me, at least I can slowly rebuild my credibility through word-of-mouth.”

Song Yu was not too worried about Ruan Danchen since she would not suffer too much with Qi Chenglin as her support.

Song Yu wanted to ask Ruan Danchen about things between Qi Chenglin and her but judging by the way Ruan Danchen reacted at the entrance, she most likely would not want to share more. So, she did not ask.

After lunch, Song Yu sent Ruan Danchen back to the company and gave her the Firewood Chicken before going back to Viewpark Residence.

When Song Yu finished bathing and came out of the bathroom that night, she saw Qi Chengzhi sitting on the bed with his laptop placed on his lap.

Qi Chengzhi put the laptop aside when he saw her. He curved his legs up to make way for Song Yu to come onto the bed.

“What are you looking at?” Song Yu felt that her back got tired easily as her tummy grew bigger, so she just laid down right away.

Qi Chengzhi took out the lotion and essential oil from the drawer of the nightstand and said, “I’m looking at some recommendations of Greece.”

“Are we really going to Greece?” Song Yu was a little surprised.

The weather now was rather stuffy, Song Yu had changed into a short-sleeved knee-length nightgown as her nightwear.

Qi Chengzhi flipped up the hem of her skirt and exposed her baby bump. He applied some essential oil and massaged her stomach while he said lightly, “Don’t you want to go to Greece?”

Other than the two days when they were at Li City, Qi Chengzhi would give her a massage every night when he was at home and Song Yu already got used to it.

“What have you got?” Song Yu wanted to check his laptop but Qi Chengzhi stopped her.

“The laptop’s radiation is harmful to you, don’t look at it. I’ll print it out tomorrow for you to read through carefully,” Qi Chengzhi said while he massaged her with a moderate strength.

Song Yu did not insist and went on to tell Qi Chengzhi about how the manager from Dynasty accidentally let the cat out of the bag this afternoon. “I think the girl Qi Chenglin said that he was pursuing most likely is Danchen.”

“This is nice.” Qi Chengzhi laughed gently before continuing, “If he succeeds, both of you would be sisters-in-law.”

Song Yu looked at him suspiciously for quite a while. “Did you know this already?”

“How can I know? I’m not supernatural.” Qi Chengzhi poured some essential oil on his palm and rubbed it on Song Yu’s tummy.

“Why aren’t you surprised at all?” Song Yu had nothing to do while she was lying down, so her hands went to pluck Qi Chengzhi’s leg hair.

Qi Chengzhi was not wearing pajamas and just wore a pair of boxer briefs. He was seated with his leg crossed beside her. Even though his leg hair was not too thick, they were much darker than hers. Song Yu did not really pluck them, she just picked them strand by strand.

Qi Chengzhi glanced at her briefly. Her hair-picking gave him a small itch. “Didn’t you mention before that Chenglin treats Ruan Danchen differently? Even if he told me himself that he’s pursuing Ruan Danchen, I wouldn’t be surprised,” he replied.

Song Yu laughed and moved her way to lie on his lap.

Qi Chengzhi raised his oil-smeared hand and said with an arched eyebrow, “How am I supposed to massage you like this?”

“You have long arms.” Song Yu closed in towards his legs. Her face was pressed against his taut abs, while her hands went around his waist and wrapped him in her arms.

Qi Chengzhi lowered his head to peck Song Yu on her lips. After a few rounds of massaging her tummy, his palm started to climb upwards slowly.

Suddenly, Song Yu grabbed his waist forcefully. Her breathing was short and deep. When she lowered her eyes, she saw that her nightgown was raised in the chest area, with his hands still moving underneath. Shortly after, he lowered his head and pressed on her lips. He held her head up and deepened the kiss.

Song Yu’s hand glided up from his waist to the back of his neck and hooked around his neck naturally. She exerted some force and pulled his face down while she raising her head to meet his and kissed him back shakily.

Qi Chengzhi was brushing his lips against hers when he grinned suddenly. He mumbled with a low, raspy voice, “Your whole body is covered in essential oil, so slick. Do you think that it can be applied inside of you?”

Song Yu’s face flushed red immediately. She rested on his neck and said with short breaths, “You... stop joking...”

“Uhm, it’s not safe. I’ll go back and look to see if there’s anything suited for that application.” Qi Chengzhi nodded as if it was a serious matter.

“...” Song Yu was speechless.

She felt that there was no need to apply anything inside and Qi Chengzhi could already devour her. Also, he insisted that she should lie flat, but that way, her bump was very visible.

She had no idea why he was still so excited when her body was in such bad shape.

After that, Qi Chengzhi slept sideways while he wrapped Song Yu in his arms. His warm hand pressed against her tummy and caress it gently in circular motions. He kissed her forehead that was covered in a thin layer of sweat, then the corner of her eye, before squeezing her thin arms.

“Don’t you think that your arms and legs are too thin?” Qi Chengzhi said softly.

“I think it’s too thick,” Song Yu rubbed against his arms, her hands moved to his shoulders as she replied with her eyes half-opened.

“Who said that? You’re carrying such a big belly but your limbs look so thin—as if it won’t be able to support the weight of your tummy and you would lose balance anytime.” Qi Chengzhi frowned slightly and pinched her arms again. Then, his whole hand covered hers.

“I’ve been stuffing myself for every meal. Also, all the tonic and health food that your grandmother and mother gave me made me feel like I’m getting fatter,” Song Yu said. She did really think that her arms grew an inch than before.

“That’s good, I feel more secure,” Qi Chengzhi pinched the flesh on her arms again. The upper arm was still passable, but her wrist was still too thin.

“I hate you,” Song Yu said gently in a tired voice before dozing off in his arms.

On Friday, Song Yu went back to her parents’ house and brought back Li City’s specialty. She brought so many things that the driver, Xiao Fan, helped her with most of the stuff and brought it upstairs.

When she was about to enter their unit, Song Yu halted her footsteps suddenly and turned around to search for something in the garden.

“Young Madam, what is it?” Xiao Fan also stopped when he saw Song Yu looking around with a frown. He followed the direction that she was looking at but he did not see anything.

“Nothing.” Song Yu turned back and shook her head. She laughed and said, “Maybe something ticked me off, let’s go.”

Xiao Fan was still worried and went back to look around for one last time but he could not find anything wrong. So, he just followed Song Yu up the stairs.

Song Yu felt as if someone was watching her just now. Her back was tingling and she panicked for a moment. However, when she turned back and look around, she did not find anything suspicious. She thought that she might be extra-sensitive after getting pregnant, so she did not give much thought to it. Since she stopped having that weird feeling afterward, she had forgotten about this incident.

Yu Qianying saw boxes of specialties that Song Yu bought for them. She knew that Qi Chengzhi was the one who spent on all these, so she felt a little uneasy but she could not bear to reject Song Yu since she came all the way here to give these to her. She stored all of them into the kitchen.

“Next time, let us visit you, don’t come over. It’s too tiring for you to climb up the stairs since your bump is getting bigger,” Yu Qianying said.

“It’s fine. It’s not like you guys live very high up,” Song Yu said. She was afraid that Yu Qianying might feel uncomfortable going to Viewpark Residence.

“Madam, Young Madam, I’ll take off first,” Xiao Fan said continuing, “Young Madam, just give me a call when you’re about to leave.”

“You don’t have to hurry. Take a seat and drink some water, you just came up,” Yu Qianying said hurriedly. “It’s almost time for lunch. You can stay back and have a meal together.”

“No need, no need,” Xiao Fan dared not stay behind. He escaped before Yu Qianying managed to get hold of him.

Song Yu ate lunch at home and thought for a while before calling Xiao Fan to go home first. While Yu Qianying was in the kitchen, Song Yu secretly phoned Qi Chengzhi and told her to pick her up after he finished work. She wanted to test Yu Qianying’s reaction towards him.

Yu Qianying did not reject the things that she brought today and even said that she would go to Viewpark Residence to visit her. These made Song Yu think that Yu Qianying might be more lenient towards Qi Chengzhi.

Around four o’clock, Song Yu received Qi Chengzhi’s call and heard him said, “I’m leaving the office now, will reach around five.”

“You’re off so early?” Song Yu asked in surprise.

“I got off earlier so that I can pick you up early to go home, or else you’ll get hungry,” Qi Chengzhi said in a mellow voice.

Song Yu laughed gently, “Take your time to drive, no hurry. I ate a lot in the afternoon.”

“Uhm,” Qi Chengzhi answered lightly.

After she hung up, she heard an unhappy voice saying, “Qi Chengzhi’s coming over?”

Song Yu raised her head and saw Yu Qianying who had on an unpleasant expression.

“Uhm, he’s coming over to pick me up.” Song Yu looked at Yu Qianying with caution.

Yu Qianying said with a tense expression, “I don’t want to see him. Don’t think that because I’ve forgiven you, I’ll forgive him as well.”

“If you don’t want to see him, I won’t let him come in,” Song Yu could only say before continuing, “He won’t linger in front of you and make you upset.”

Yu Qianying’s expression remained tensed and stood up to leave without saying a word, “Don’t let him stay over for dinner. Your father and I will eat the remaining dishes from noon.”

“...” Song Yu did not answer further.

Qi Chengzhi arrived slightly past five. When the doorbell rang, Yu Qianying predicted that it was Qi Chengzhi, so she did not answer the door. Song Yu had to open it for him.

Yu Qianying was sitting in the living room watching over Song Donglin to prevent him from going out to greet Qi Chengzhi.

Song Yu was hoping if they could make up, but she knew that it would be impossible after seeing Yu Qianying’s reaction. Qi Chengzhi stood by the door with a pair of hopeful black eyes peering inside.

Song Yu tugged his sleeve and shook her head silently.

Qi Chengzhi nodded his head and said with a clear voice, “I’ll wait here for you.”

“I’ll be right out,” Song Yu went back to bid farewell to Yu Qianying and Song Donglin. Yu Qianying just answered blandly with an “uhm”.

Song Yu was quite disappointed. She took her bag and walked out. She shoved her hand into Qi Chengzhi’s palm. She did not know if she would have to oscillate between her husband and her parents in the future, with zero interaction between both parties.

She let out a sigh gently and felt Qi Chengzhi hold her hand with more strength.

Song Yu raised her head and squeezed her hand. When Qi Chengzhi lowered his head and looked at her, she said, “Lower.”

Qi Chengzhi raised his eyebrow and smiled. Then, he bent down and Song Yu tiptoed to raise her clumsy body to give him a peck on his lips.

Qi Chengzhi’s heart was beating according to her movements. He was busy looking after her and only stopped worrying after Song Yu regained her balance.

“Why so sudden?” Qi Chengzhi’s eyebrows furrowed slightly and held onto her.

“Comfort your heart.” Song Yu felt very secured being held by him. She leaned her body weight against him and was not bothered by the fact that they were on the staircase.

She did not expect a man that had so much confidence to also have his insecurities.

Qi Chengzhi lowered his head and hugged her while she laid in his arms. His stern features became even more serious and said, “I’m afraid that you’ll be tired and frustrated when this goes on for a long time.”

“Qi Chengzhi, is your confidence in me that low?” Song Yu got out from his embrace and stood straight up. She put on a serious expression and glared at him.

Listen to her calling his full name, Qi Chengzhi’s expression became softer and let out a sigh, “I’m sorry, it’s my fault.”

Song Yu was stunned, she did not expect him to admit his fault.

She lowered her head and used both of her hands to hold his hand on her palm. Her soft fingertips grazed on his fingers and the back of his hand gently. “It won’t tire me out so easily, nor do I feel frustrated, but I feel bad.”

Qi Chengzhi turned his hand to hold her tightly and led her down without uttering another word.

...

On Saturday, Qi Chengzhi and Song Yu went back to the old mansion. Grandmother Qi was dancing outside while Grandfather Qi played chess in the park. Both of them were not at home. Xia Wenna specially informed them to come home earlier when both Grandfather and Grandmother Qi would be out of the house. She wanted to discuss Grandmother Qi’s birthday celebration.

Grandmother and Grandfather Qi got married and had children at a very early age. She would be seventy-two years old this year. Before this, Grandmother Qi had already told them not to make it too big since it was not a huge celebration. She would rather have it with the family.

However, they knew that Grandmother Qi was the kind where she usually meant the opposite of what she said. Grandmother Qi was not one who prefers to have a low profile. Every year, she would have a different surprise for her birthday, this year was no exception.

The eight noble families would definitely be invited to celebrate this happy occasion. Besides, the birthday had to be special.

You could say that Grandmother Qi was even more particular than Qi Youxuan. When Qi Youxuan celebrated his birthday, he was already very satisfied when he received presents.

“Song Yu, we would need to invite your parents to Grandmother Qi’s birthday, they...” this was the thing that was troubling Xia Wenna the most.

Grandmother Qi’s birthday had always been the center of attention. If Song Yu’s parents did not attend, rumors would start spreading like wildfire. For example, they would think that the relationship between the Qi family and Song family had turned sour, or the Qi family looked down upon the Song family who lost their status long ago.

Song Yu was unsure as well. “I’ll speak to them, but...”

Xia Wenna nodded her head and said, “I understand, just try your best.”

After a while, Grandmother and Grandfather Qi came home. They were surprised to see them in the house. “Why are you guys here so early today?”

Xia Wenna had already thought of an excuse and said, “Mum, I was thinking that our family had so many issues recently as if we got jinxed by others. Song Yu’s parents also got into a fight with us because of the nonsense other people told them. I thought of asking the kids to visit the temple to pray. Since Song Yu is pregnant, I also want to get the blessings from Buddha to bless the child to be healthy and safe.”

Xia Wenna was not lying entirely. She did have the intention of doing so.

Back then when Song Yu just married Qi Chengzhi, she and Grandmother Qi went to the temple to beg for a son. It turned out that not long after, Song Yu got pregnant.

Xia Wenna was also a little superstitious. Could it be that all the things that happened recently had to do with the fact that she and Grandmother Qi did not go to the temple to return the favor?

That was the reason why she wanted to go and return the favor so badly, and at the same time pray for their family to be better. She also wanted to bring Song Yu along to get some blessings.

Last night, Xia Wenna called Guan Liya and told her about her plans. Guan Liya said, “Ya, I also want to pray for Qi Youxuan and also ask about Chenglin’s love life. Youxuan is going to start primary school but Chenglin hasn’t found a wife yet. It’s making me worry!”

Grandmother heard and thought that what Xia Wenna said was right. Without saying anything, she went to her room and brought her bag and some money for donation and said, “Let’s go together.”

Grandmother Qi and Xia Wenna insisted on bringing Song Yu, so Qi Chengzhi had no choice but to follow. Guan Liya also forced Qi Chenglin and Qi Youxuan to follow since she wanted to ask about their life. In the end, everyone including Grandfather Qi went to the temple together.

Grandmother brought all of them to return the favor to the Child-Giving Guanyin. Once they entered the temple, Song Yu saw the Guanyin statue that was a few meters in height. It was shining and gleaming as if it was layered with gold.

Song Yu’s jaw dropped as she was surprised and thought, ‘When did the temple become so luxurious nowadays?’.

“Aiyo!” Grandmother Qi exclaimed surprise and said, “I prayed to Guanyin to bless Chengzhi’s love life back then. I promised that if Chengzhi got married, I’ll make her a gold statue. In the end, Chengzhi really got married to you, so Wenna and I donated the money to the temple when we came the second time to ask for a child. Turns out that they work pretty fast, not bad, not bad indeed.”

“...” Song Yu was speechless.

All of them were speechless. The golden shimmer was so grand that all of them were amazed by this stunning scene in front of their eyes.

“You wastrels,” Grandfather Qi could not hold it in and call them out.

“What do you think you’re doing? How can you speak vulgarities in the temple? Please be more civilized,” Grandmother Qi said unhappily while she rolled her eyes at Grandfather Qi. She stopped paying attention to him, leaving him to sulk by himself.

Grandmother Qi pulled Xia Wenna to kneel and Song Yu followed suit. Grandmother Qi and Xia Wenna came here to return the favor, while Song Yu prayed for Qi Chengzhi and their unborn son, and for Qi Youxuan to be blessed with health and safety.

Grandmother Qi mumbled, “Buddha, I’m wishing for a few more favors. My second grandson, Qi Chenglin is still unmarried. Please bless him so that he can find a good wife. Please bless our family to be safe and healthy. My eldest granddaughter-in-law is pregnant. Please bless that both mother and son to be safe and that she can give birth to a healthy and strong son. My youngest granddaughter is also getting married, I hope that you can bless their marriage to be filled with bliss and they would have a beautiful child soon.”

Guan Liya drew a fortune lot for Qi Chenglin’s love life. The lot turned out to be of good fortune. Guan Liya exchanged the lot for a fortune slip so that she could interpret the lot herself instead of visiting the monk.
