Chapter 377: A favor

Jianyu’s gaze shifted on Serena, who was cuddling Nian in her arms. A gentle smile lit her lips as she was playing with him.

He recalled how Serena was so happy, buying all those stuff for the baby. He felt his throat tighten at that memory.

Nana said, looking at Serena, “You should sit down. You will get tired of standing like that.”

Serena settled on the bench and adjusted Nian in her arms.

“Booo…boooo…bbo!” Nian softly touched her chin.

Her eyes watered despite her resistance. He felt so small and delicate in her arms. Serena felt a kick in her belly.

She widened her eyes in surprise. She giggled and whispered, “Hey, your little brother or sister kicked. Hehe, it likes you.”

“aboooo…?” Even though Nian didn’t understand, his eyes gleamed in excitement.

From a distance, Jianyu was watching everything with silence. Jian’s giggle interrupted him from his daze. He lowered his head and tickled him.

“baaaaa…” Jian giggled.

Nana observed the two of them and felt that something had changed between them. Jianyu still seemed angry, but she felt as if his gaze and aura towards Serena…had mellowed down a notch. A part of his heart wanted to be with her, but the wall he had built didn’t allow him to waver.

Nana sighed.

“How are things at the company?”

“Good. Oh yes. Dad said, that we are holding a welcome banquet for the twins.”

Nana nodded.

Jianyu chuckled. “Another event for mom to get all excited.”

She hit him on his shoulder. “It’s not Aunt Chen. It’s you. Men are boring!”

Serena heard about the event.

She coughed inwardly and felt embarrassed.

Should I ask if I am invited? I really want to attend it, she wondered.

Nana whispered to Jianyu. “Jianyu.”

“Hm?”

She hesitated for a moment. Her heart ached as she saw Serena gazing at Nian with pain and sadness in her gaze. An inexplicable stifling arose in her chest. Her due date was coming soon too…

“Are you…can you think about not taking the baby away from Serena once it’s born?”

Jianyu stiffened.

Jian looked up at him and quietly stared at him.

Nana softly said, “Jianyu, as a mother, I understand how painful it could be to separate a child from its mother. I know you have already taken the decision but can you…reconsider a bit?”

Jianyu said nothing.

“Jianyu, you will be a wonderful father. I know that. But you cannot replace a mother in the child’s life, just like how a mother cannot replace a father’s position. The differences between you two have got nothing to do with your child. I don’t want to see him or her suffer because of your hatred. You know Serena loves her child too. It deserves both of your love. At least…can you permit her to meet him sometimes?”

Jianyu unconsciously tightened his grip on Jian. His cute little brows frowned a bit.

Once again, Jianyu remembered their time together in the shopping mall. He suddenly felt breathless. When he would recall her betrayal, his chest constricted as if somebody stabbed his heart.

“I don’t know…” he said.

Nana pursed her lips. “It’s okay. Just think about it once. There is still some time before her delivery. For your child’s happy future, please think about it.”

On the other side, Serena felt a bit annoyed at Jianyu for hogging Nana all to him. For the last ten minutes, she didn’t know what they were whispering about.

“N-Nana. Can I ask you something about the delivery?”

“Okay.”

Serena got a chance to talk to her, and she asked all sorts of questions regarding delivery just to get closer to her.

“You are lucky. Jian and Nian are well-behaved, so they don’t cause you much trouble, right?”

“En.”

“Hehe…I hope my baby too would be like them-“

Jianyu glanced at Serena as she spoke those words.

She abruptly stopped. “I-I mean I hope he or she doesn’t bother Jianyu much too.” She nervously smiled.

Nana felt her discomfort in her smile, but she couldn’t say anything.

Then Serena slowly asked, “Um…”

“Hm. Anything else?”

“I-If you don’t mind then…can I come to the banquet too?” Serena mumbled so quietly that it could hardly be heard, but Nana still did.

She thought for a moment. “Okay.”

Serena’s gaze brightened. “Really?” but then it dimmed. “But…your parents wouldn’t allow it.”

Nana faintly smiled. “I will talk to them.”

Serena hesitated but nodded.

Huian stepped out of her car, parked outside a small café.

She took a sunglasses off and entered, searching for a familiar figure. She found him sitting him on a table at the corner.

Huian walked towards him and said, “Liang Shin.”

Shin raised his head and saw Huian in a peach, slightly off-shoulder dress that matched perfectly with her pale skin. She had applied a light makeup on her face. She had let her hair loose that dropped on her shoulder. The perfume she wore was giving a gentle but soothing fragrance that hit his nostrils.

“You look pretty.” Shin just blurted out his thoughts in a daze.

Huian widened her eyes in surprise. She didn’t expect that he would compliment her.

But she liked it. She liked it that Shin noticed her.

Her lips curved into a soft smile. “Thank you.”

Shin snapped out. He felt embarrassed.

What was I doing? Did she find it weird?

He looked at her again.

But she really looks beautiful…

He cleared his throat. “How is your body now? Any trouble in walking?”

She shook her head. “I am fine. It doesn’t hurt now.”

He nodded. “That’s good. Keep on doing the light exercises.”

“Yes.”

Silence.

The waiter came, and they ordered two cups of coffee and some sandwiches.

Silence again.

“Um, you messaged me that you want to talk to me about something.” Huian blinked her eyes.

“Eh? Oh yes. I have something very important to ask you.”

“Yes, what is it?”

Shin nervously fidgeted with her fingers. He felt his heart racing in his chest.

Oh God, this is a stupid idea. She would never agree. What was I thinking, calling her out for this reason?

“Liang Shin?”

She frowned when he said nothing.

Shin bit his lip. “I want your help. Can you please do me one favor?”

Huian said, smiling brightly at him, “Of course! You have helped me this whole time. If there is something I can do to help you, then I would be very glad.”

Shin took a deep breath and looked straight in her eyes.

“Will you be my girlfriend?”
