Lu Mello and s.h.i.+ Enxi were looking at the monitor and they could see the heartbeat from there.

s.h.i.+ Enxi was already 3 months and a half pregnant, her baby b.u.mp was growing well. 

"Congratulations Mr. Lu, Mrs. Lu, you"re having a girl." The doctor said with a pleasant smile.

That is when it hit her, she really is truly becoming a mother.

She refused to see their child for the past months since she felt like she was not ready to have more attachment towards the baby.

She has to admit that there were times where she was being so careless that if not for Lu Mello or Hao Qiang"s reminders, she might have already lost the baby.

Thinking of losing the baby made her chest tightened. She didn"t want to lose the baby. No, it wasn"t because of wanting to please Lu Mello anymore. This time, it was because of her genuine feelings for their child.

"A girl..." s.h.i.+ Enxi"s eyes that we"re locked on the monitor softened. She turned to Lu Mello and smiled sweetly at him. "We"re having a girl, Mello."

Lu Mello gently smiled back at him. He was holding her hand the whole time and the warmth from it was spreading throughout his body. "I bet she"ll be so pretty like you."

"Of course she"ll be." 

"Just continue on eating healthy food and have a proper rest for your body. From what I see, the baby is growing healthy. I advise you to avoid things that can be stressful for you and your child, Mrs. Lu." The doctor turned to Lu Mello, "You too, Mr. Lu, please don"t stress your wife. Both of you should work together and continue to be careful for the sake of the child."

"I understand." He stroked s.h.i.+ Enxi"s knuckles with his thumb, looking at his wife with unreadable eyes.

"We still have time to go to the mall." s.h.i.+ Enxi grinned happily at him, let"s check and buy some things for our daughter.

"Okay." Lu Mello was looking ahead, driving at a slow speed.

s.h.i.+ Enxi noticed Lu Mello"s unusual behavior at her. He seemed to be fine while they were with the doctor earlier so why did his att.i.tude suddenly change?

"Mello, are you alright?" She reached out to check his temperature on his neck.

"I"m fine." He smiled a bit. "By the way, where is Hao Qiang, Xi"er?"

"Ah, Hao Qiang? I made him go home today. I have a few days off so I"ll be at home."

Lu Mello sighed heavily, "I don"t like it when you lie to me, Enxi. Me of all people."

s.h.i.+ Enxi pursed her lips upon hearing his words. Did Hao Qiang tell him about what she did?

"Ming Ren... No, Jiang Yan, you brought her somewhere, right?"

s.h.i.+ Enxi clenched her fists.

So Hao Qiang really did tell him! That son of a b.i.t.c.h!

"He told you?" She finally asked, looking at him. It was no use lying around him anymore especially when he already found out.

"I asked him. Also what you did to her."

She huffed, not hiding her malice towards Jiang Yan anymore. "So? She needs to know who she"s messing with."

"You know that I"m a person under the law. I can"t let you do something like that." 

"Then turn a blind eye to it just like what you do to Brother Xian Yu." She crossed her arms and was pouting.

"Uncle Xian Yu is a different case. Even if I know, I am not allowed to go after him."

"I"m your wife, why won"t you allow me?"

He parked the car on the side of the street before he turned to look at her with a troubled expression on his face. "That"s the point, you are my wife. I am working with the police." 

"Do you expect me to be a good wife then? Here"s what, Mr. Lu. You married me and you know that I am not that good of a person so work with it." She ended their argument when she turned away from him.

No matter how it looked like, s.h.i.+ Enxi was not going to listen to his argument anymore.

"Xi"er." He heaved out another sigh. It was really hard for him to allow her to do things she wanted especially if it"s killing someone.

"How about this? You can do whatever you like with that woman except for killing her?" Lu Mello tried to convince her into an agreement.

s.h.i.+ Enxi lowered her gaze and was quiet for a while.

Lu Mello couldn"t read her since he couldn"t see her expression.

A soft chuckled was suddenly heard from her, "Heh... You really don"t want me to kill?"

She looked at him, it was as if her eyes could lit up a dark room. She languidly continued, "You"re right, I can"t dirty my hands."

Lu Mello finally sighed in relief. Thinking that he was finally able to convince her.

"I should let someone else do it."

It was amusing to see the sudden change in Lu Mello"s expression. She was not serious with it, she only wanted to tease him a bit. 

She decided not to kill Jiang Yan for the sake of her husband but it doesn"t mean, she"ll give her an easy time.

When Lu Mello noticed s.h.i.+ Enxi"s face filled amus.e.m.e.nt, he narrowed his eyes. 

"You"re adorable, darling." She giggled lightly, giving his cheek a pat. "We should get going, we still have to buy things for our baby girl."

"You"re lucky that I love you or else I won"t be tolerating this." He huffed before he faced ahead and started driving the car again, heading to a Mall.

"I love you too, darling." s.h.i.+ Enxi was clearly enjoying her moment with her husband. Being with him really brightened her mood.

She was glad that she married him, that she was able to have him for herself. 

Thinking back to the things they have been through before their relations.h.i.+p started, she found it funny, especially during the times where she tried to push him away.

Ah... Instead of pus.h.i.+ng him away, she ended up being pulled by him.
