"Chengyan, what time is it now?" Chi Xingye shifted her bulky pregnant belly, snuggling into Helian Chengyan's embrace on her own initiative.
"Three thirty," Helian Chengyan replied, sliding his arm under her neck to make her lie comfortably.
Chi Xingye asked with concern, "Why did you come to bed so late?"
"Just some work, I've just finished it," Helian Chengyan said simply, affectionately patting her back, "Enough talking, let's sleep now."
"Chengyan..." Chi Xingye mumbled half-asleep, "The due date for the baby has been set."
"When is it?"
"Next month, the 28th." As Chi Xingye spoke, she became less sleepy, her lips curling into a happy smile, "That means in less than 40 days, we'll be able to see our baby. Chengyan, I'm so happy!"
"Me too!" Helian Chengyan kissed her hair.
Helian Chengyan had never known the hardships of a pregnant woman until Chi Xingye became pregnant. Only then did he realize the greatness and difficulty of being a mother.
