My Dear Wife, Please Be Gentle!

Chapter 687: Chapter 692 Godson_1

Lord Qin said guiltily, "Something came up at the Government Office, delaying me. Next time you get hungry, go ahead and eat with Qiao Duo and the others, don’t wait for me."

Today is Little Year, and he had wanted to return earlier, but the survivors from Xuan Eagle Mountain Village insisted on causing trouble, so he had to be there.

A few matters dragged on until now.

"Don’t play coy after taking advantage, hurry inside, I’m starving."

Chen Yiling dragged Qin Longyun into the house and made him sit on a stool to rest, and yes... she would personally cook the dumplings.

Qin Longyun quickly said, "Be careful, walk slowly."

His only regret in life was that he couldn’t be with his wife every step of the way during her pregnancy.

His wife, once so willful, was now tolerant and considerate in every aspect. Bringing her home was truly a fortunate blessing earned in time, and if he didn’t cherish her properly, he wouldn’t be human.

Before long, the dishes were served.

Due to Little Year, the spread was extravagant, with fish, meat, and shrimp.

Especially that plate of fried shepherd’s purse—it wasn’t easy to see green vegetables in the dead of winter, and the recipe was quite special.

He believed that this dish could only be enjoyed at Qiao Duo’er’s house; it seemed that every visit brought new surprises.

Qin Longyun grew even more curious about Qiao Duo’er. What exactly had she been through?

But looking at her laughing and talking with Tan Zhenghong, she seemed to be just a virtuous wife.

Some people, some things—the less you understand, the more curious you become.

Qiao Duo’er saw his reaction, but she didn’t mind at all because that was a secret between her and Tan Zhenghong.

The most important thing was that Qin Longyun considered her a friend and wouldn’t make things difficult for her.

Otherwise, today’s deeds wouldn’t have ended up in her hands.

Qiao Duo’er smiled lightly and said, "Lord Qin, what are you spacing out for? Yi Ling helped with every dish today, aren’t you going to show some support?"

Standing to the side, Chen Yiling felt a bit embarrassed; her so-called help was just flipping a few dishes twice.

Qin Longyun picked up his chopsticks, tasted a bit of the shepherd’s purse, and found it crispy and fragrant, delighting his taste buds.

"Duo’er’s cooking skills are impeccable, and with the wine I’ve brought, it’s even more perfect."

Qin Longyun opened the seal of the wine jar, pouring for everyone personally, a small gesture from him.

"I’ve imposed on you all during this time. Let me offer a toast to you all."

Qin Longyun raised his glass; he felt very at ease with Yi Ling staying at their place.

Tan Zhenghong promptly said, "The two of them rarely find someone they can talk to. It’s good that they spend time together, it’s hardly an imposition."

"Yi Ling is my friend, and you are my elder brother. If you continue with the formalities, I’ll get angry," Qiao Duo’er said, feigning a scowl.

Qin Longyun nodded readily: "Then I’ll say no more. I’ll drink to that first."

With one drink down, the atmosphere became lively.

Chen Yiling said coquettishly, "Actually, I’m not a burden. Look at me, loved by everyone, and I can even help. Most importantly, this little thing in my belly will call Duo’er godmother in the future—can she do nothing?"

"You’re right. I’m not taking care of you, I’m taking care of my godson!"

Qiao Duo’er reached out and touched Chen Yiling’s belly.

The next second, she exclaimed excitedly, "I think I felt him move."

"No way, it’s only been three months," Lord Qin placed his hand on the belly, but it was calm.

Chen Yiling said disdainfully, "You’re so clueless. It’s about time for movement, but it was just that one flutter a moment ago. It seems this little thing likes Duo’er more, you, as the father, should step back!"
