Runaway Wife: Please, Have Another Baby!
Chapter 238 - 239: Sweet Burden

Chapter 238: Chapter 239: Sweet Burden

For him, it was also something he needed to gradually get used to, but he liked this feeling.

He remembered when he was a child, his father had said that he and his younger siblings were his "sweet burdens". At that time, he did not understand, but now he was gradually beginning to comprehend the meaning of his father’s words.

To love someone is not just about plundering and possessing, there’s also... responsibility.

From now on, she and this child will also become his sweet burdens. At this thought, the man smiled again.

Before, he had always looked down on men who married and had children, thinking they were completely wasting their time and lives on these meaningless endeavors.

Now that he had also fallen in love with someone, he understood the feelings his father had when he gave up the throne for his mother.

It turned out, love indeed could drive one crazy!

By the time the car reached the airport, Gan Yuan was already dozing off.

The man’s embrace was so comfortable and warm that she easily relaxed.

When she startled awake from her half-asleep state, her heart was filled with panic.

She... she had actually fallen asleep at such a time?

Narrowing her eyes at the moving sky overhead, she turned her face and noticed for the first time that she was being carried horizontally in the man’s arms, exiting the car and heading toward the airplane.

"Don’t worry, I’m here!" Capturing her expression, Huangfu Jue smiled and said, "Close your eyes, come closer!"

He tightened his embrace slightly, turning her face against his chest to shield her from the morning sunlight that might sting her eyes.

"From today onwards, you won’t have to stand alone anymore, leave everything to me, now... let’s go home!"

Holding her, he stepped up the stairs one at a time.

The man’s voice seemed to have some kind of magic, or maybe she was just too tired, as she fell back into a deep sleep without realizing it. At first, she seemed to hear him talking to their son, but then all sounds gradually faded away, and she slept soundly again, without even dreaming.

When she naturally woke up, all she could see was darkness, and all she could hear were the muffled voices of Huangfu Jue and the little one talking.

"Uncle Huangfu, sorry, I won again!"

The little one unapologetically took his queen.

"Let’s go again."

The man said with a smile, his tone casual.

In fact, he was playing absently, only occasionally glancing at the chessboard, his gaze mostly lingering on Gan Yuan in his arms.

She was merely sleeping, didn’t even move, and her face still had the eye mask he had found for her; what could be seen was just half of her sleeping face poking out from the blanket, yet he seemed as if he could never get enough of looking at her.

"Uncle Huangfu?" On the other side, the little one sounded somewhat helpless, "It’s your turn!"

He lifted his face, glanced at the chessboard, and carelessly placed a piece down.

"I’m done playing!" The little one leaned back in his chair, crossed his arms, and his little face showed annoyance, "You’re not taking it seriously, it’s not a fair win!"

"Alright, I’ll focus now!"

Huangfu Jue took back the piece he had played and, looking at the chessboard, seriously made a move.

Only then did the little one sit up straight again and move his piece.

Listening to their conversation, Gan Yuan was fully awake.

Even though she couldn’t see, she could guess the scene before her; warmth surrounded her from all sides, and she could hear the heartbeat near her ear.

She lifted a finger to pull off the eye mask on her face, her finger moved slightly, then stopped.
