He hugged her even tighter. He was using so much strength that he wished the two of them could merge into one.
"I never knew how it felt like to miss someone in the past, but nothing else could make me experience this pain being away from you." Mu Yuchen pulled her head towards his chest, his gentle tone of voice sounding happy. "Only you can do that, Xiaye."
She buried herself in his arms and complained, "Then, why didn't you come back earlier?"
"I just wanted to get everything done and spend several months with you and welcome our newborn baby, okay?"
He patted her head and left a kiss on her forehead. Then, he glanced at her belly as he smiled and put his hand over it. "This little thing is growing up quickly. It's only been two months and it's grown so big."
Xi Xiaye looked down as well, a smile appearing on her face. "Mmm, it's growing well. It's pretty naughty at times too. Sometimes it wakes me up at midnight."
