Once they left the hospital, Zhang Yu Han took his wife to a mall where the two of them began to shop for a few items for their baby. After figuring out that the baby's gender, Li Qin Yao was too excited that she decided to go and look at some stuff.
Looking at the cute outfit and items, Li Qin Yao was suddenly at loss. She did not know which one to choose and in the end, Zhang Yu Han had to decide for her.
Seeing the smile on his wife's face as she browsed through a few clothes, Zhang Yu Han let out a helpless sigh. "Alright, let's stop buying too much stuff," Zhang Yu Han said. "We won't have a place to keep them before the new house was ready."
Previously, Li Qin Yao had surveyed for their new places and the two decided on a two-story house not far away from Grandfather's place, so that it would be easier for them to come over.
After they had made their decision to purchase a new place, Zhang Yu Han had arranged for someone to renovate and decorate the place before their baby arrived, and now, the house was still in construction progress.
Li Qin Yao looked at the princess pink baby cot and bit her lips. Although she liked the cot, she had to agree that they won't have space to place it until the new house's renovation was completed.
"Anyway, let's not forget what Doctor Qiao had told us earlier. The scan might not be a hundred percent accurate," Zhang Yu Han raised his eyebrow. "What if it is a boy?"
Li Qin Yao froze momentarily. Her gaze then shifted towards the other cots in the shop. Although they were very practical, they were not as cute as the princess's cot.
She turned to her husband and tilted her head. "Then, should we buy something appropriate for both?"
In the end, the couple only brought a few stuff and decided to wait until the house's construction was finished before they get everything else. Anyway, Li Qin Yao had taken some pictures and made some notes. It would not be difficult to get those items later.
After walking around the mall for a while, Zhang Yu Han decided to pull his wife to a cafe to rest. He chose a spot hidden from the others and the two sat across each other.
Once the waiter walked away with their order, Zhang Yu Han turned to his wife. "Are you tired? Come on. Lay your feet on my thɨġh and let me rub your legs for you."
Li Qin Yao looked at her husband shyly.
"It's fine. This seat is slightly hidden from the others. They won't see a thing." Zhang Yu Han said, as is knowing her worry.
Li Qin Yao bit at her lips and hesitated. After a while, she raised one leg and placed it on his thɨġh. Although she was worried that others' whisper, Li Qin Yao found that she could not resist her husband's offer. After all, Zhang Yu Han gave the best foot massage!

Liang Sheng stood at the sofa as he waited for Auntie Han to announce his arrival to Chairman Li. He looked around the house anxiously and then pulled out his phone to check on a few messages.
Because he was sent by Chairman Li Ren Xin to ȧssist his granddaughter in the Tourism City project in B City, Liang Sheng has been traveling from B City and Capital City weekly. Anyway, his parents were still in Capital City and Liang Sheng would take the opportunity to visit them during the weekend while coming over to meet the chairman with his report.
However… these days, Liang Sheng found that he was not looking forward to coming over to visiting Li's residence at all due to some reasons.
Just as he was deep in his thought, Liang Sheng heard familiar footsteps coming from behind him. He immediately stood up from his seat and took a few steps back as he stared back at the woman who suddenly appeared.
Li Mu Chen smiled as their gazes met. "Mr. Liang, are you here to visit my Grandfather?"
"What do you want?"
Liang Sheng had encountered Li Mu Chen a few times in the house before. Previously, Li Mu Chen would send him a curious gaze, but would not pay much attention to him. However, recently, Liang Sheng found that Li Mu Chen would often come to him and tried to strike a conversation with him whenever he came to meet Chairman Li.
At first, Liang Sheng did not mind her presence at all. It was until Li Mu Chen would ask questions regarding Li Qin Yao that he sensed that something was not right.
After all, it was well known that Li Mu Chen and Li Qin Yao were not very friendly to each other. Li Mu Chen's purpose to get close to him was surely for his boss's sake.
Now that the bespectacled man was aware of her purpose trying to get close to him, Li Mu Chen no longer tried to hide her intention when she came to approach Liang Sheng in her grandparent's house.
Li Mu Chen twirled her hair with her finger and smiled. "I told you previously. I want you to help me."
Liang Sheng's face darkened. "And I have replied to you. I am not interested. I work for Chairman Li and Mrs. Zhang. I will not betray them and help you with whatever you have in mind, Miss Li."
Li Mu Chen kept the smile on her face even though she was annoyed. "Who said anything about betraying anyone? All I'm asking is something small. I can ȧssure you that it will not affect you in any way, Mr. Liang. You just need to report to me Li Qin Yao's movement. That is all. I will reward you afterward."
"Not interested."
Her face turned black at his constant rejection. Li Mu Chen had thought of using someone close to her cousin to get back to her. She had thought with her charm and identity as the Chairman's granddaughter, Liang Sheng will go along and listened to her. Who would have known that this man could be so stubborn?
At this time, Auntie Han came over and paused briefly upon seeing the two of them. Looking at their expression, Auntie Han could detect that something was not right with them.
Auntie Han coughed to gain their attention and put on a polite smile as she turned to Liang Sheng. "The master is waiting for you in his study."
Liang Sheng let out a breath of relief upon hearing that he had a chance to escape from Li Mu Chen. Swiftly, he turned around without looking at Li Mu Chen again.
Looking at the man who had ignored her and rejected her request a few times, Li Mu Chen was boiling in anger!
