Chapter 196 - Linhou's yearning heart

Linhou pouted his lips and complained, "Why not?"

"Do you have any idea how dangerous that place is? You can't go there without proper protection and you know how important you and Jason are to Yichan, the clan and all of us. In fact, everyone knows that which makes you both more vulnerable. This isn't a joke Linhou, you can't take things so lightly." Pausing for a while, Muchan added, "Jason's work is mostly indoor but you have to be out constantly which makes you even more vulnerable."

Linhou sighed and nodded his head, "I understand that boss but what about my delicate heart which is yearning for my doll's touch?"

Pinching his brows, Muchan explained, "Don't let these feelings sway you away Linhou, they are just temptations which will drive you crazy but you cannot give in so easily."

Keeping quiet for quite some time, Linhou inquired, "Is there any medicine to heal my yearning heart?"

Picking up his notepad, he prescribed a few medicines for him. "Here, buy them from the pharmacy downstairs and don't even think of going there without my permission and proper protection."

Taking the prescription from Muchan's hand, Linhou said, "But I can protect myself boss and—"

Cutting him off, Muchan retorted, "Listen to me otherwise I'll tell Yichan everything."

"Fine." Grumpily getting up, Linhou added, "But if I die because of a heartbreak, you will be responsible for my death."

After Linhoiu left, Muchan helplessly shook his head before picking up the sample that he had brought. He then took off his white coat and grabbed his car keys before leaving his cabin.

He wanted to go to the lab and get the samples checked as soon as possible. Not only was he curious but he was very sure that Yichan would definitely start bugging him if the reports were delayed.

….

Yichan and Ning's place.

"Yi, can I ask you something?"

Caressing her back with his left hand and holding a doc.u.ment which he was reading with the other, Yichan answered, "Honey you don't have to ask before asking anything."

Keeping quiet for quite some time, she pressed her chin on his chest. "You really don't wanna have a baby?"

Keeping the doc.u.ments down, he tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and inquired, "And why are you talking about babies all of a sudden?"

"Hmm just a random thought."

"Honey, I think you are taking what our grandpa's said very seriously." When she did not say anything, he pulled her closer and sighed, "Okay so have I ever said that I don't want one?"

When she shook her head, he added, "Obviously I want to have a baby and not because I love babies but because it's something that is a part of you babe, I want everything and anything that is a part of you."

"But?"

"But there is a time for everything, we can't just rush to have one just because our family members want us to have one," he explained, Yichan wanted to wait for the correct time for starting a family with Ning. With so many things going around, he wanted to avoid having a baby when everything was so complicated.

Keeping quiet for quite some time, she asked, "What if I say that I want to have one?"

"Then I have no choice but you give my wife what she wants."

Snuggling closer, she chuckled, "You are very cheesy."

Kissing the top of head, he stated, "Don't get me wrong and dont think that I will force myself to have a baby only because you want to. Ning, always remember that I'll willingly have one if you want to, all I care about is what you want and that will always remain my first priority."

"What if the baby just happens without any planning?"

"If that happens, there is nothing we can do. We have no other choice but to let that brat force itself between us," Yichan answered.

Looking at him, she pouted her lips and confessed. "Those pills that the doctor had prescribed, they were not vitamin pills." Pausing for a while, she continued, "They were pre-maternity pills. I thought that if I start taking them now, it will be easier for us to get pregnant when the right time comes."

Kissing her forehead, he smiled, "Hmm that is a nice idea."

"You don't have a problem with that right?"

"What? Of course not, there is no harm preparing for something that will surely happen in the future."

Placing her head on his chest, she snuggled closer and smiled, "I love you."

"I love you too honey."

….

Guiren and Meili's place.

"Do you wanna talk about it?"

"Talk about what honey?" Guiren inquired.

Snatching the doc.u.ment from his hand, Meili frowned and sat down on his lap before wrapping her arm around his shoulder. "You know what I am talking about Guiren."

"Okay now who called you?" He asked.

Running her fingers through his hair, she answered, "Flora called me today in the evening, she told me everything."

He sighed and helplessly shook his head, "That girl, she really can't keep anything to herself."

"At least there is someone from your family other than grandpa who doesn't hate me." Meili chuckled.

Flora was Guiren's first cousin and the only person who liked Meili and also treated her well. She was also the only person who gave her insider information and hot news from the Zhang mansion which Guiren never told her about. She knew that he didn't want her to take any unnecessary headache over the Zhang family matters but she still couldn't stop herself from asking Flora about it.

Caressing her cheek, he smiled, "It's nothing serious, you don't have to worry about it."

Meili sighed and hopped down from his lap. "I knew that you would say this, anyway, I'll go prepare dinner for us."

Grabbing her hand, Guiren said, "Now don't be angry babe."

"I am not angry or anything Guiren, I am just so used to you hiding things from me about your family that now I have made my peace with it."
