Rebirth: My Dear Little Wife Is So Scheming

"I heard your footsteps."

Bai Xiao contentedly ate the fruit, though she wasn't hungry just a moment ago, she was indeed feeling a bit hungry now.

She picked up a piece of kiwi, tangy and sweet, exactly to her taste, not uncomfortable at all.

"Have you eaten yet?"

An Zhiyuan took off his coat, only resting assured when he saw his wife wasn't feeling nauseated.

Bai Xiao turned around, received the clothes from his hand, and hung them on the coat rack. "No, I ate lunch at the international hotel, and ran into my dad and many others. I ended up vomiting for a long time, took a nap, woke up late, and wasn't very hungry, so I didn't eat."

An Zhiyuan embraced Bai Xiao from behind, gazing at her tenderly, "You've lost weight these past few days! What would you like to eat? I'll make it for you!"

Bai Xiao leaned against him, feeling calm, turning to look at him. Her fair cheeks suddenly showed a bit of shyness, a bit of sweetness.

"No need, just eating fruit is fine."

She didn't want An Zhiyuan to spoil her too much.

Such pampering could spoil her.

Only after a long while did he let her go.

Bai Xiao naturally leaned back in his arms, and for some reason, she looked at him and laughed happily, placing her hand on his shoulder.

Gently touching with the tips of her fingers, through the shirt, the neatly trimmed short nails seemed to softly say—this is my man, and the solid shoulders I can rely on anytime.

"What's the matter? Why are you laughing?"

His gaze was warm, so was his tone.

"Second brother, I want to tell you, what if you suddenly have three treasures at once, what would you do?"

She raised an eyebrow, staring into his eyes as she asked.

He looked at Bai Xiao, their eyes meeting, "How could it be... three of them?"

He certainly knew Bai Xiao had the ability to know things even the doctor couldn't confirm yet. He liked kids, but seriously thought that three kids would be too much of a burden for an expecting mother.

No wonder this child was causing such a ruckus.

Turns out, it's three of them.

"I just did a self-check, although we can't detect the fetal heart with an ultrasound yet! But I can already feel the faint heartbeat. It's three babies." Bai Xiao was a bit worried, yet also a bit excited.

She had heard of twins, but triplets are indeed quite rare.

In her past life, she had read news about quintuplets and was especially envious of having five babies at once.

Now she herself had three.

If these three little ones look exactly the same, just thinking about it would make you smile awake.

"We should still see an obstetrician for advice. I have a comrade with twins, and I heard it was quite tough during pregnancy, and risky when giving birth. For triplets, I worry it's not good for you. If it's really not feasible, then no kids for now."

Bai Xiao frowned, her gaze tender. She frowned because she disagreed, tender because she knew this man prioritized her safety.

"But I want children, I always wanted twins, a boy and a girl preferably. The boy looking like you, and the girl like me. I'm at least not hard on the eyes! If the daughter takes after me, she should be pretty.

Just didn't expect it to be three kids this time, I think they must be the same gender, whether boys or girls I would love them dearly."

An Zhiyuan sighed, he knew how much Bai Xiao longed for a child.

Just because he didn't hold much hope about having children, does he understand how much Bai Xiao values this unexpected child.

"Don't be like this, let's not discuss this now, I'll consult about it! There's still time now, my requirement is to only have the child on the premise of ensuring your safety. If it endangers your safety, I'd rather not have the child." He frowned, stroked her cheek tenderly, his gaze plastered on her face.

He spoke methodically, the determination in his eyes left no room for argument.

Bai Xiao nodded, having someone care about you like a part of yourself is truly delightful.

"I'll listen to you! I'm not an OBGYN, I really only know half of this stuff, seeking expert advice can't go wrong."

She made up her mind not to harm the children.

In this life, she still lacked a child; now, she suddenly had three, she wanted them.

Even if it meant hardship and suffering, even if the cost was one's life.

In just a moment, she suddenly understood Yu Shaoya's choice back then. When a life grows inside you, it suddenly becomes irreplaceable.

Besides, what could happen with her special ability?

"What do you want to eat? I'll make it for you!"

He still cared about Bai Xiao not eating.

"Anything is fine, whatever is there, nothing complicated, not greasy! I can't stand those smells!"

Being pampered by her own man, she was indeed happy inside.

He kissed her cheek, warm and with a temperature, An Zhiyuan smiled and left.

Bai Xiao slapped her forehead, forgetting to tell him about An Zhixiang.

Ten minutes later, Bai Xiao was eating Korean cold noodles and telling An Zhiyuan about what she overheard today. The sour and sweet cold noodles felt a bit cool in this weather, but very appetizing, a flavor she loved, with no nausea at all.

Especially the slightly spicy kimchi and side dishes were very favored by Bai Xiao.

She wondered where this guy got the cold noodles from.

An Zhiyuan cleared away Bai Xiao's leftovers, told her to wash up and sleep, and then went to An Zhixiang's room.

An Zhixiang had just returned.

He and Ke Lan were living together, anyway, they were about to get married soon, just a formality. Both of them leaned towards Western ways, having lived overseas for a long time, many ideas had been assimilated.

It would be abnormal for two people in love not to sleep together.

An Zhixiang was surprised seeing his second brother at the door.

"Second brother, come in. It's so late; something up?"

Ke Lan was drafting something; they had some tasks to complete. Besides this marriage during their trip to Capital City, they had other assignments.

"Old Three, let's take a walk. I'm feeling a bit stifled, keep me company for a bit." An Zhiyuan signaled with his eyes, glancing at Ke Lan. An Zhixiang understood immediately; his second brother wanted to talk to him alone.

He took his coat, "Alright, I'm coming."

Turning to Ke Lan, "I'm going out for a walk with Second Brother. If you're done, go ahead and sleep, no need to wait for me."

Ke Lan nodded and smiled.

She watched as the brothers left one after another.

Though not sure what it was about, Ke Lan, being sharp, guessed it involved Ding Min.

She wasn't blind or oblivious to what antics this so-called stepmother had been up to lately.

She thought enduring it would pass and they'd not stay here long after. For them, going abroad was routine; even if they stayed, she had already agreed with An Zhixiang that they'd live on their own after marriage.

Getting such a stepmother was just bad luck.
