Chapter 89: Wanting to Have a Child to Strengthen Our Relationship

“Let’s go.”

Jiang Yubing changed her clothes, walked out of the bedroom, and naturally took Shen Qingxuan’s hand.

Shen Qingxuan was slightly shocked by her outfit.

Jiang Yubing wrapped herself up tightly; not only did she wear a hat, she even put on a pair of sunglasses.

Anyone who saw them probably thought the two of them were about to do something shady.

“Wife, what is this…”

Shen Qingxuan wanted to persuade her to change into something more normal, but Jiang Yubing anxiously interrupted him, “Hurry up, or we will be late.”

With that, she dragged Shen Qingxuan out the door.

It took her great effort before the idiot husband agreed to take her along.

If she delayed any longer and he regretted it, all her earlier efforts would go to waste.

…

Night.

As they were about to reach the meeting spot, Shen Qingxuan worried that Jiang Yubing was hungry, so he found a nearby snack stall and ordered her favorite snacks.

“Wife, wait here obediently, I will come back as soon as possible.”

Shen Qingxuan reminded her gently.

“Okay.”

Jiang Yubing nodded obediently and added uneasily, “You must not drink alcohol.”

After saying that, she propped her chin on her hand and followed Shen Qingxuan with her eyes until he walked up to Zhang Yunhao, who was tilting his head back to drink.

Shen Qingxuan sat down on the chair opposite Zhang Yunhao and asked with concern, “Hao, why are you still so down?”

Zhang Yunhao gulped down the bottle of beer in his hand.

With a face full of sorrow, he said, “When I logged into the game this morning, I discovered Youyou canceled our couple status.”

“I wanted to call and ask why, but I made several calls and nobody answered.”

“Then I went to the hotel to look for her, but when I arrived, the front desk told me she already checked out.”

After listening, Shen Qingxuan patted Zhang Yunhao on the shoulder sympathetically.

He still did not know when the two of them got together.

But in matters of the heart, all he could do was offer a few words of comfort.

Ultimately, Zhang Yunhao had to pull himself out of it.

“Down a bottle?”

Zhang Yunhao picked up a bottle of beer and looked at Shen Qingxuan.

“No, Bingbing specifically told me I must not drink.”

Shen Qingxuan hurriedly waved his hand in refusal and subconsciously glanced in Jiang Yubing’s direction.

Sure enough, he saw Jiang Yubing staring this way.

If Shen Qingxuan dared to drink, Jiang Yubing would definitely rush over immediately.

“You really are damned! Even when I’m like this, you still show off.”

Zhang Yunhao spoke in mock anger.

“Uh… I was only explaining to you.”

Shen Qingxuan looked helpless.

He truly did not intend to show off their affection.

“Brother Hao, Brother Xuan, what a coincidence, running into you here.”

Just then, Su Youyou’s overly sweet voice came from not far away.

Over the past few days, she focused all her thoughts on finding a chance to get close to Shen Qingxuan.

Several times she asked Zhang Yunhao to invite Shen Qingxuan out to play, but Zhang Yunhao refused each time.

After this period of interaction, she found that Zhang Yunhao had a bit of a homebody nature and did not like going out to socialize.

So she thought up the move of canceling their couple status.

She was certain that when Zhang Yunhao could not find her, he would definitely call Shen Qingxuan out.

Therefore, Su Youyou secretly followed Zhang Yunhao to this area.

“Youyou?”

Zhang Yunhao looked utterly surprised.

He had been unable to reach her for a whole day; how did she suddenly appear here?

Could it really be such a coincidence?

“Brother Hao, what is it?”

Su Youyou walked over, sat beside them, and gave Zhang Yunhao a sweet smile.

“Where did you go? I called and no one answered.”

Zhang Yunhao asked.

“I was busy with something, so I had no time to look at my phone.”

Su Youyou casually found an excuse.

As for having no time to look at her phone, that was pure nonsense.

She just did not feel like answering.

After hearing that, Zhang Yunhao asked no further, assuming she truly was busy.

“Then why did you cancel our couple status?”

He changed the topic.

“What couple status? I do not know anything about that.”

Su Youyou hurriedly denied it.

Her target was right in front of her now!

If Shen Qingxuan learned that the two of them were still linked, she would have no chance left.

“You start school tomorrow, right? Then there will not be much time to meet!”

Su Youyou hurriedly changed the topic, afraid Zhang Yunhao would keep pressing.

“Brother Hao, let me toast you.”

As she spoke, she poured a glass of beer, raised it, and smiled brightly at Zhang Yunhao.

Zhang Yunhao originally wanted to ask again, but when he saw Su Youyou’s expression, the words stuck in his throat.

The two clinked their glasses and drained them in one go.

Zhang Yunhao thought to himself, “I am probably overthinking it.”

“Brother Xuan, your turn.”

Su Youyou poured another glass of beer and looked at Shen Qingxuan with eyes full of anticipation.

“No need, I am not drinking today.”

Shen Qingxuan refused decisively.

Su Youyou refused to give up.

She already saw that Jiang Yubing followed them.

Although the person wrapped herself up tightly, from her figure and the pair’s intimate actions, it was not hard to guess who she was.

“Brother Xuan, I will go back tomorrow, and meeting again will probably be difficult.”

“We have known each other for so long, you won’t refuse such a small request, right?”

“Or do you mean, Brother Xuan, that you never regarded me as a friend at all?”

Su Youyou deliberately moved her face close to Shen Qingxuan and spoke in a coy voice.

She did this because she wanted to cause a misunderstanding between Shen Qingxuan and Jiang Yubing.

That way she could exploit the opening.

Su Youyou turned her head toward where Jiang Yubing was.

As expected, she caught Jiang Yubing’s gaze.

The corner of her mouth lifted slightly as she returned a provocative look without hiding it.

“Brother Xuan, just drink it.”

Zhang Yunhao felt that Su Youyou made sense and also urged him from the side.

This sudden moral coercion left Shen Qingxuan momentarily at a loss.

He gave Zhang Yunhao a sympathetic glance.

Hao, you really needed to be more cautious.

You simply could not handle Su Youyou.

The two of you were not even on the same level.

Shen Qingxuan sighed deeply.

It was hard to advise Zhang Yunhao in front of her.

Left with no choice, he took the glass and drank it.

“Since everything is fine, I will head back first.”

After finishing the drink, Shen Qingxuan did not want to stay a moment longer and hurriedly took his leave.

When he hurried back to the snack stall where Jiang Yubing had waited, there was no sign of her.

His heart thumped; he sensed something bad and jogged toward home at once.

Sure enough, he spotted Jiang Yubing storming along the road.

“Wife, why did you walk so fast?”

After he caught up, he subconsciously reached out to hold her hand, but she dodged away at once.

It really proved that old saying.

An angry girl was harder to handle than a New Year’s pig.

…

After they returned home.

The two of them took their showers one after another and went back to the bedroom.

“Wife, are you still angry?”

Shen Qingxuan asked tentatively.

Jiang Yubing ignored him and pondered alone.

The idiot husband already explained the previous matter to her.

She was no longer angry.

It was fine this time with her nearby, but what if she was not there next time?

Jiang Yubing still felt uneasy.

Even though they already collected their certificate.

They still lacked the final step.

But…

She was afraid of pain.

While Jiang Yubing struggled with her thoughts, Shen Qingxuan spoke again.

“Wife, I truly know I was wrong, it will not happen again.”

Seeing the sincerity in the idiot husband’s eyes, Jiang Yubing secretly made up her mind.

“Little baby, I think the relationship between us is not stable enough.”

Jiang Yubing took a deep breath and spoke.

“What do you mean?”

Shen Qingxuan felt completely puzzled.

They already got their marriage certificate and were protected by law.

How could it still be unstable?

“It’s… just that.”

Jiang Yubing stammered, nervously tugging at the corner of the quilt with her fingers.

“Just what?”

Shen Qingxuan pressed.

“I… want a child to help maintain our relationship.”

Jiang Yubing blurted out the words in one breath, then immediately turned over and faced away from Shen Qingxuan.

At this moment her face was so red it seemed ready to bleed.

Shen Qingxuan froze, suspecting he misheard.

A child?

Was she not still angry?

Why did it suddenly make such a big leap?

However, “Wife, do you really mean what you said?”

He forced himself to suppress his excitement and asked.

“Mm.”

Jiang Yubing was too shy to turn back; she only responded softly.

Shen Qingxuan wanted to say something else, but swallowed the words.

He stretched out his arms, pulled Jiang Yubing into his embrace, and held her tightly.

He breathed in the familiar fragrance on her body.

Shen Qingxuan asked softly, “Wife, are you ready?”

When Jiang Yubing thought of what was about to happen, she felt both anticipation and fear.

She was afraid of pain since childhood, and at this moment her palms sweated with nervousness.

She reached out and touched her burning face, knowing without thinking how shy she was.

“Turn off the lights, okay?”

Jiang Yubing spoke softly.

“Hm?”

“I am shy.”

“All right.”
