Assistant to My Contracted Husband

They say the most important thing for a man is his career... although Qin Mu now has made it clear that family comes first.

"Mm."

Qin Mu saw the slight disappointment in the woman’s eyes and placed his hand on Mu Wan’s belly.

At six months pregnant, Mu Wan’s belly was fully showing, round and full... it felt surprisingly good to the touch.

Yes.

Every time during the prenatal check-up, Aunt Li would praise Qin Mu for taking good care of his wife.

And the little Wanzi in her belly is developing well.

Qin Mu felt extremely proud inside.

"Little Wanzi is moving."

Mu Wan’s lips curved slightly, just as a hint of disappointment passed through her heart, feeling a bit upset, the little Wanzi in her belly gave a reaction.

Upon hearing Mu Wan say this, Qin Mu quickly helped her sit down on the sofa, kneeling down slowly to listen to the movements in the woman’s belly.

Thump thump.

Little Wanzi is six months old now, and you can clearly hear the fetal heartbeat.

Sometimes, you can even see a spot on her belly protrude as the little one pushes out with a small hand.

The miracle of new life truly made Qin Mu feel fondness in his heart.

Qin Mu squinted his dark eyes, curling his lips.

"Yes, I can feel it, she misses her daddy."

Mu Wan looked at the man justifying himself and tugged at the corner of her lips.

"She’s only six months... how could she be talking to you?"

"This is the bond between father and daughter; whatever little Wanzi wants to say, I know."

Jian Ran looked at the man’s confident demeanor, slightly curving her lips, choosing not to say more.

Qin Mu was completely like a child...

Qin Mu had his ear pressed against Mu Wan’s belly and refused to leave, no matter how Mu Wan pushed him away, he remained unwilling.

Eventually, Mu Wan couldn’t stand it anymore and said teasingly, "Alright, future dad, I need to take a bath now. The weather is hot, and if I don’t, I’ll smell."

"Mm, I’ll carry you."

Qin Mu wouldn’t want his wife to take a single extra step.

Qin Mu directly lifted Mu Wan in his arms, carrying her to the bathroom.

Mu Wan, wearing silk pajamas, wrapped her arms around the man’s neck. Even though her belly was now round and full, Mu Wan’s limbs remained slender.

Sometimes, Aunt Li would marvel at how well little Wanzi absorbs nutrients.

But a woman still cares about her figure to some extent.

Mu Wan now felt she had gained a lot of weight, making it especially tiring for Qin Mu to carry her.

"Qin Mu, I can walk myself... you’ve been holding me for so long, your arms must be tired, and I weighed myself this morning and gained even more."

While holding Mu Wan, Qin Mu seemed to be enjoying himself, casually taking his time to savor the quiet moment they were sharing, walking deliberately, without rushing to take Mu Wan directly into the bathroom.

"It’s fine, I think you’re not big enough yet, you should eat more, for the baby’s nourishment."

Mu Wan chuckled at the man’s words, wondering how he could be so unreasonable.

Truly unreasonable.

Mu Wan pinched the man’s cheek gently, speaking with a mix of playful reproach and tenderness, "Mr. Qin, I’ve put on over twenty pounds, it’s really stressful, and if I go to the graduation ceremony tomorrow, surely lots of people will be shocked."

The project presentation, defense, and graduation ceremony at Yuncheng University are all held together.

Moreover, the event is open to society and all the students and teachers of the university.

Knowing Mu Wan was graduating, Hua Nuan and Jian Ran certainly wouldn’t miss it.

Qin Mu raised an eyebrow, remaining nonchalant.

"It’s okay, as long as my daughter and my wife are healthy. Besides, I’ve always thought you were too skinny, now is the perfect time for you to gain some mass."

Mu Wan: "..."

So unreasonable.

Mu Wan felt annoyed at Qin Mu, watching him completely unworried, biting her lip, she just kept quiet.

Looking at Mu Wan’s sulky expression, Qin Mu soothingly said, "Honey... in my eyes, you’re the most beautiful now."

Women always think men like skinny figures, but in reality, men prefer a bit more curvaceous shapes, more comfortable to hold, and pleasing to the eye.

Mu Wan replied, slightly annoyed.

"I know you’re just appeasing me."

Qin Mu squinted his dark eyes, his sincerity was unquestionable.

...

Even though it was just a few meters, Qin Mu took quite a few minutes to carry her to the bathroom.

Entering the bathroom, Qin Mu lifted Mu Wan onto the washing area, which was padded with a thick blanket underneath to keep her warm.

"I’ll go run the water."

"Alright."

Mu Wan took off her slippers, revealing cute little feet that wiggled playfully.

Before getting pregnant, Mu Wan always felt her personality was cold, lacking any childlike spirit. However, after getting pregnant, her childish side was rather awakened.

Therefore, Mu Wan now often enjoys playing with Tang Bao and Cubao.

And occasionally doing some childish things...

Watching Qin Mu busying around, Mu Wan’s beautiful eyes warmed.

Being cared for so gently by Qin Mu, she always felt it was time treating her kindly.

The only disappointment was that her husband couldn’t attend tomorrow’s graduation ceremony.

Mm, working is busy...

Mu Wan comforted herself a little.

...

Soon, Qin Mu had filled the tub with water, and the bathroom became misty with steam.

Mu Wan’s face also turned rosy as she began to remove her silk pajamas.

"Let me."

"No need..."

"It’s alright, for something like undressing, you don’t have to be shy with me in the future."

Mu Wan: "..."

Alright then.

Listening to the man’s charming and beguiling words, Mu Wan could feel her ears turning hot and flushed.

Mu Wan swallowed and quietly said, "You naughty rascal."

"Ha."

Qin Mu’s lips broke into an amused smile, as he lifted his hand to encircle the woman’s slender waist, stripping off the pajamas and bringing her into the bathtub.

His eyes fixed on Mu Wan’s belly, Qin Mu’s dark eyes grew even hotter.

Looking at Mu Wan’s belly, and thinking of his daughter growing strong inside, he felt proud as a father...

Qin Mu bent down gently, kissing Mu Wan’s belly, and huskily said, "Thank you for your hard work."

Ten months of pregnancy.

How hard it is for women... Qin Mu witnesses it firsthand.

Sometimes Mu Wan’s belly felt uncomfortable, keeping her awake at night, with chest discomfort, she’d only barely sleep by morning.

In sum, these days, Mu Wan has suffered quite a bit.

There’s happiness and sweetness, but also suffering.

"Mm, it’s okay..."

What a woman values often comes down to a man’s words.

Mu Wan raised her lips gently, tenderly saying, "I’m willing."

Willing to bear children for him...

Upon hearing this, Qin Mu’s dark eyes flickered with deep, intense emotions, as he stood up, lifting his hand to clasp the woman’s nape, kissing her rosy lips.
