Chapter 520: Chapter 520
Although there was nothing embarrassing about such a matter,
Qiao Xi’s face still turned unnatural upon hearing it.
Before she knew how to respond, Shen Dang nonchalantly said, "It’s quite regular, several times a day."
Youths indeed have abundant energy.
Was his answer really necessary to be that explicit?
Qiao Xi lowered her head, her ears slightly reddening.
The doctor adjusted his glasses and calmly replied, "Young people should still exercise some restraint; a healthy frequency would be a few times a week."
"That probably won’t work."
Of course, Boss Shen only dared to say this silently in his heart and didn’t voice it out.
He feared that saying it aloud would have his wife sending him to sleep on the couch tonight.
That would be a loss indeed.
"I will pay attention," Shen Dang said indifferently.
Qiao Xi gave him a glance, wondering since when he became so compliant?
Given his frequency in such matters, Qiao Xi felt that Shen Dang’s words were more from the kidney than from the heart.
Qiao Xi opened her mouth, wanting to ask the doctor something but ultimately chose to remain silent.
When they were about to leave, the doctor instructed them to take some folic acid tablets.
It was already getting late.
Shen Dang and Qiao Xi had dinner outside.
Later, the two returned to Riverfront Villa.
Upon entering the door, Shen Dang threw out all the cigarette packs in the living room, including those in the rooms, not leaving a single one behind.
Although he wasn’t a heavy smoker, Qiao Xi knew he couldn’t do without cigarettes when working, especially at night.
Sometimes Qiao Xi would wake up in the middle of the night, not find him in the bedroom, and see him busy in the study upon finding him there.
That’s when he would smoke fiercely.
Whatever and Huahua excitedly circled around her legs, but Qiao Xi ignored them and looked at Shen Dang instead, "Why did you throw away all the cigarettes?"
Shen Dang looked up, "Since we’re planning for pregnancy, I shouldn’t smoke, for your sake and for our child’s."
Also, he was seriously considering their future.
Qiao Xi immediately wrapped her arms around his waist, looked up at him with sparkling eyes, like stars passing by, "Then, it’s a hard task for Boss Shen."
Shen Dang held her head and kissed her.
Not smoking was nothing difficult; her bearing a child would be the true hardship.
Shen Dang hadn’t expected that in matters involving their careers, she would choose him.
When he heard Qiao Xi talk about planning for pregnancy, he was shocked!
That shock from deep within his body and soul felt like it filled the void in his heart.
Such passionate emotions enveloped him.
For the first time in his over twenty years, he felt his heart beating so intensely.
Shen Dang held Qiao Xi’s waist close to him, and as Qiao Xi felt his kisses deepen and grow more urgent, she pushed him away.
Shen Dang looked at her with bewildered eyes, "What’s wrong?"
His eyes were bloodshot, almost moving to kiss her again.
Qiao Xi covered her mouth to keep him from getting closer, her muffled voice coming through, "The doctor said to be moderate, have you forgotten?"
He was still in such a hurry.
Disregarding the doctor’s advice completely.
"If we don’t make a concerted effort, when will we conceive a child? The doctor didn’t say frequent attempts would harm the body."
"This is something both pleasant for you and me; we should accept it gladly, not hold back."
Dumbfounded by his shamelessness.
Shen Dang’s warm palm cradled her neck, he bent down to meet her eyes, "Shall we start tonight without protection, is that okay?"
His voice was usually low, but at this moment, lowering it even further made it sound particularly hoarse.
Qiao Xi was irresistibly mesmerized by him.
The weather in Hai City still held a hint of chill.
The sun during the day carried a bit of early spring warmth.
But it wasn’t excessively hot yet.
The temperature was quite suitable. Follow current novᴇls on ɴovel(ꜰ)ɪre.nᴇt
Also suitable for a wedding.
The wedding dress Shen Dang had custom-ordered had been air-shipped from Italy and delivered to Qiao Xi’s home at Four Seasons Cloud Top.
Shen Dang pushed back his work commitments to bring Qiao Xi back to Four Seasons Cloud Top.
Qiao Xi was surprised to find the wedding dress at her home.
She also expressed her queries about it.
Shen Dang replied lightly, "I’ll come to pick up the bride from here on the wedding day, so I had the dress delivered here."
Shen Dang entered the password to open the door.
It had been several months since she had been home.
When Qiao Xi returned, she felt a sense of unfamiliarity.
"It’s been a long time since I’ve been back."
No sooner had she spoken than her vision suddenly went dark.
Shen Dang had covered her eyes with his hands.
Qiao Xi’s hands went to his, trying to pry them away, "I can’t see, what are you doing?"
What was this man up to?
"Don’t move," Shen Dang’s breath sprayed on her neck, his voice low and entwining her ear, "I have a surprise for you."
Qiao Xi chuckled, "What kind of surprise is this? Are you teasing me?"
She hadn’t even seen the wedding dress and it was already a surprise.
Fine, she would play along.
Qiao Xi curved her lips into a smile.
Shen Dang guided her forward.
He opened the bedroom door, and as Qiao Xi walked in under his lead, Shen Dang finally removed his hands from her eyes.
The moment Qiao Xi opened her eyes, she saw a magnificent white wedding dress.
The dress had a voluminous skirt that trailed to the floor, layers of gauze accumulating on the garment, embellished with roses and gems crafted from soft satin, intricate white patterns hidden within, with lace trims adorning the neckline and sleeve cuffs, exuding sweetness and an air of nobility.
Under the light from the window, it seemed to radiate a heart-stirring glow, rendering the dress profoundly sacred.
This wedding dress alone had taken more than half a year to craft.
The craftsmanship was simply unmatched.
Qiao Xi was deeply moved.
She stepped forward and touched the dress; the fabric was as soft as feathers.
Shen Dang’s eyes fell on her fair face. "Xixi, do you like it?"
Of course, it had hit all the right spots for Qiao Xi.
There probably wasn’t a girl who didn’t like wedding dresses.
Especially one as exquisite and beautiful as this.
She said, "I like it."
Shen Dang wrapped his arms around her waist, "It’s tailored to the style you like."
Qiao Xi looked at him.
How did he always get it so right?
Shen Dang held her hands, lifted his chin in a boastful manner, "I knew you’d like it."
Qiao Xi earnestly said, "Shen Dang, thank you."
Qiao Xi just smiled without answering.
But Shen Dang seemed to understand what was in her heart, withdrew his hands from her waist, and grasped both of her hands, "Wife, I’m really looking forward to the day you wear this wedding dress."
Qiao Xi carefully examined his face; each time she looked at him seriously, she would be amazed.
Facing Shen Dang, Qiao Xi had come to truly understand the meaning of breathtaking beauty.
Every time Shen Dang looked at her with his focused and passionate eyes, it always made Qiao Xi feel the warmth of being loved ardently.
Qiao Xi’s eyes curved into crescents, like the moon, "I’m looking forward to it too."
