Chapter 1316 - 1343: New Year’s Eve

Chapter 1316: Chapter 1343: New Year’s Eve

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was New Year’s Eve, which was also Nianyang’s 20th birthday.

With the limited environment, Li Tingyan wanted to prepare a birthday surprise for Nianyang but couldn’t manage it.

He could only cook a bowl of longevity noodles for Nianyang himself, then drive her to the beach to play for the whole day.

"Honey, I’m sorry. Today is your birthday, yet I made you endure hardships with me on this Cold Island. I’ll make it up to you when we get back."

On the way back, Li Tingyan said apologetically while holding Nianyang’s hand.

Nianyang squinted with a satisfied smile, "It’s no hardship; being with you every year is the happiest thing. Besides, this year we have our baby too."

Li Tingyan touched Nianyang’s round belly, "Have you been feeling comfortable lately?"

Nianyang nodded, "I’ve been taking care of myself; how could I not feel comfortable? It’s just that I feel my belly is strangely big, like bigger than ordinary twin pregnancies."

Li Tingyan smirked, "It means you’ve been taking good care of the babies, and they’ll be adorable chubby little darlings when they are born."

Nianyang giggled, "Next month, I’ll be seven months along. Then we’ll go to the city, and get the baby’s clothes and other baby products in advance."

"Alright, whatever you say," Li Tingyan said while patting his head.

"Also, we need to think about the baby’s name. I’ll come up with a few, you come up with a few, and then you can decide which one to choose?"

Nianyang tilted her head and thought for a moment, "I think we should let my grandfather come up with the baby’s name."

Li Tingyan agreed, realizing that with elders in the family, they shouldn’t overstep them.

While this couple was blissfully planning their future, Jiang Tian, on the other hand, was sitting on pins and needles.

It was New Year’s Eve, and at noon she went to have a reunion meal at her in-laws’ house, but Lu Xingshen did not show up.

When Liu Qian asked, she just said Lu Xingshen was busy.

At that, Liu Qian reproached, "Is he that busy? Doesn’t even have time for a family reunion meal?"

Jiang Tian responded kindly, "Mr. Lu’s work is inherently complex and busy. I’ll talk to him when he has free time."

Liu Qian was very satisfied with Jiang Tian as a daughter-in-law, smiling gently,

"Tiantian, how are things going between you and Xingshen?"

Jiang Tian’s fair cheeks flushed with a transparent blush, stammering,

"It’s, it’s fine."

"How does Xingshen treat you? Has he been bullying you? If he has, you have to let me know, understand?"

Liu Qian had been on tour recently and had taken time out for the New Year. During the two months since Jiang Tian and Lu Xingshen got married, she had only occasionally called to check on them and didn’t know the details of their life together.

Jiang Tian obediently said, "Mr. Lu treats me very well."

"You better not be lying to me," Liu Qian immediately saw through, "If he treats you well, why are you calling him Mr. Lu? You should call him Xingshen like I do."

Jiang Tian wasn’t good at lying and was now sweating nervously from her nose, lowering her head seriously,

"I’m just used to it."

Lu Chen put down the newspaper, "Why are you asking so much of our daughter-in-law? This is between the two of them.

And what’s wrong with calling him Mr. Lu? In other countries, people call their partners Mr. and Miss; it’s for fun."

"What do you know, you old fool?" Liu Qian glared at Lu Chen, then curiously asked,

"Tiantian, I always forgot to ask, your marriage to Xingshen was so sudden. Although nowadays most people don’t spend much time getting to know each other before marriage,

a marriage with love is ultimately the happiest. Do you have those kinds of romantic feelings for Xingshen now?"

Let’s transition with Jiang Tian’s side here to not make things feel abrupt later on.
