CHAPTER 752: CHAPTER 754: AREN’T WE SUPPOSED TO MEET FUFU?

Indeed, Wang Xiangxiang’s words were very effective, and Chu Lian decided to accompany her instead of learning to cook.

Wang Xiangxiang also felt relieved. She was unwilling for him to tire himself out for her sake, and also believed that his time should not be wasted in such a manner, as everyone has their own strengths.

Wang Xiangxiang enjoyed this meal very much; she ate happily and was well-sated, without experiencing any morning sickness.

As the two of them prepared to return, Chu Lian noticed Wang Xiangxiang hesitate to speak. He took the initiative to ask, "Wife, what’s the matter?"

After some thought, Wang Xiangxiang spoke up, "I would like to see Fufu."

"Let’s head back now."

Seeing that Chu Lian agreed, Wang Xiangxiang couldn’t contain her joy. She had known that he wouldn’t restrict her. If it weren’t for fear of Li Fuyou causing trouble, she would have come out earlier.

She happily followed Chu Lian into the carriage, but after a while, the carriage stopped.

"Let’s get off."

Wang Xiangxiang was perplexed. They couldn’t possibly have reached the county that quickly. Nevertheless, she followed his lead and alighted from the carriage. Once she did, she was distraught to find they were at Chu Mansion.

She was angry. Was he not allowing her to see her brother? Was he trying to limit her freedom?

With a pout, she showed her displeasure and stood there, refusing to enter. She was ready to throw a tantrum.

"Let’s go inside."

"I won’t."

"Didn’t you want to see Fufu?" Chu Lian said, holding Wang Xiangxiang’s hand, with a pampering tone.

On hearing this, Wang Xiangxiang was extremely surprised. What did he mean? Could it be that Fufu was inside?

She turned to look at Chu Lian and saw him looking back at her with a smile. Knowing she was right, she eagerly gripped Chu Lian’s hand and walked towards the house. "Is Fufu really inside? When did you bring him over? Why didn’t you tell me?"

The corners of Chu Lian’s mouth lifted slightly. He knew she would be overjoyed. He was aware of her daily longing for Fufu, and he couldn’t bear to see her unhappy from missing him.

Thus, he decided on a day and sent Acheng to bring Fufu over. After all, Fufu was just a little child; how could they leave him alone at Wang Mansion? No matter how well the servants looked after him, they weren’t family.

"Acheng went to fetch him today."

"Thank you," she said.

"There’s no need for thanks between us two."

The couple reached the front hall quickly. Before they even entered, they heard Little Fufu’s voice. He seemed very happy, in the company of Old Master Chu, Madam Chu, and Chu Huan.

As Chu Lian and Wang Xiangxiang entered the room, Little Fufu heard the sound of the door and turned to see Wang Xiangxiang. He ran over and clung to her leg, "Sis, I’ve missed you so much. You haven’t come home for so many days."

Wang Xiangxiang’s eyes filled with tenderness. She crouched down to embrace Fufu, "Sis missed you too."

Wang Xiangxiang then attempted to lift Fufu, but Chu Lian stopped her, "You’re pregnant now."

After speaking, Chu Lian turned to Fufu and explained, "Fufu, you can’t let your sister carry you. She’s got your big nephew in her belly, and it will tire her to lift you."

Little Fufu seemed only partially to understand, but he grasped the idea that his sister holding him would make her tired, and he nodded in agreement. "Okay, I won’t let Sis carry me."

Wang Xiangxiang held Little Fufu’s hand, "Fufu, this is your brother-in-law, call him brother-in-law."

Little Fufu sweetly called out, "Brother-in-law."

This one term of endearment made Chu Lian exceedingly happy. He eagerly responded, "Eh."

"..." Wang Xiangxiang was at a loss for words. Was he really this happy to be called brother-in-law?
