Chapter 3758: A New Addition (374)

“Moreover, Old Master’s temper is much more restrained now. Look, no matter what troubles he has in his business, he rarely brings these emotions home! Since you’ve been pregnant, he has never been angry at you once, and for that matter, angry at anyone else in your presence! People change for the sake of their loved ones. Although you may not realize it, as outsiders, we can see it very clearly! Although the change in Old Master is subtle, we can sense it nevertheless!”
Chu He nodded.
She too had noticed that Gu Jinglian’s temper is significantly milder now.
He was not good at taking care of others, and during the time of her pregnancy, he might not have done a very good job. However, he did his best within his capabilities, such as accompanying her for walks after dinner, giving her back rubs when her back was painful from supporting her large belly, even though he was exhausted and could hardly keep his eyes open.
Sometimes, when she was hungry in the middle of the night, the man would even drive to a 24-hour convenience store to buy her some freshly cut fruits, biscuits and bread. She would usually have fallen asleep by the time he returned. He would place the food by the bed, so that if she woke up from her hunger again, he could just reach out and get it.
These things did not go unnoticed by Chu He. The changes that the man made for her was something no one could have imagined.
…
The short yet seemingly never-ending early stage of pregnancy seemed to have silently come to an end one morning.
That particular day, Chu He woke up to an overwhelming feeling of hunger! She shook Gu Jinglian awake and said that she wanted to eat chicken drumsticks. Other than drumsticks, she also wanted rice and pork ribs soup. She felt hungry enough to swallow a cow.
For some reason, the hunger was so intense that the moment she woke up, her appetite was on fire and she felt like eating everything.
Gu Jinglian was a little cautious. Ever since she developed pregnancy reactions, she had been advised not to eat greasy foods. And although her sudden request now for drumsticks and pork ribs soup worried him somewhat, he nevertheless got out of bed and asked Butler Fu to take care of it.
Butler Fu was also a good cook and did not wake Madam Qin to do this. He personally cooked a pot of pork ribs and radish soup, braised chicken drumsticks, and some rice.
The few of them sat around the dining table in trepidation, holding their breath until Chu He finished a bowl of rice, two drumsticks, and a few ribs. She looked up, her mouth greasy. Famished, she couldn’t care less about her appearance. She was only focused on eating, and now she had rice grains stuck to the corners of her mouth.
Gu Jinglian’s heart ached when he saw her gobbling down her food. Obviously she was starved. Perhaps it was hard for others to understand this kind of hunger. She was so hungry that her whole body was trembling, as if she was going to faint the next second!
After breakfast, Chu He went back to the room to lie down. Gu Jinglian did not dare to fall asleep, however, as he was worried that she would throw up everything she had eaten. Everyone was on high alert, but unexpectedly, Chu He slept through the rest of the morning and didn’t wake up until noon.
Around noon, Madam Qin made another pot of braised pork. Chu He got out of bed and sat down to eat again. But because she was no longer that hungry, she ate unhurriedly. For the entire afternoon, Chu He didn’t show any signs of vomiting.
Everyone was extremely nervous nevertheless, worried that she would suddenly throw up.
