Married to Officer, Pregnant Specialist becomes the Winner!-Chapter 141 - 140: "Father of Two... Kids?!

Gu Jia Ning wrapped her arms around Sheng Zexi, burying her face in his broad chest, absorbing the unique scent and sense of security he carried.

Lately, Gu Jia Ning had felt like a piece of her heart was missing, but now, that missing piece was finally found!

When he wasn’t back yet, Gu Jia Ning could still hold it in.

Now that he was back, she couldn’t hold back anymore, all the suppressed emotions of this period burst out at this moment.

"Wuwu, why did you take so long to come back?"

"Why were you gone for so long?"

She complained and sobbed, but as soon as Gu Jia Ning finished speaking, she realized Sheng Zexi wasn’t just out aimlessly; he was on a mission.

"I, I didn’t mean to blame you."

"I just, I just missed you so much..." Gu Jia Ning explained, choking up.

"I know, I know."

Sheng Zexi held Gu Jia Ning’s cheeks in his hands, looked into her eyes, and could no longer suppress his inner impulse and affection. He lowered his head and kissed her.

Gu Jia Ning returned the kiss.

In that moment, one kiss said it all.

The kiss was fiery, intense, and passionate. In the intertwining breaths, their two hearts were tightly bonded together.

No one knew how much time passed until Gu Jia Ning’s cheeks flushed, full of red hues, her breath unstable, only then did it slowly end.

Sheng Zexi went to heat the kang bed-stove, the stove, and boil water.

Then he asked about Gu Jia Ning’s condition over the past month.

"How come you look thinner to me?" Sheng Zexi scrutinized his little wife, frowning as he spoke.

"No I haven’t, how could I be thinner, look at my belly, it’s so big," Gu Jia Ning rested her hands on her hips, sticking out her belly as she spoke.

Sheng Zexi placed the kettle on the stove and looked over.

"This belly is about three months now, but why does it seem a bit large?" Sheng Zexi had specifically asked Doctor Hao about this; logically, at three months, a belly might show, but it would only be a slight curve, yet Ningning’s, why did it look more like someone else’s at four months?

Gu Jia Ning hummed lightly, "Of course, because you’re suddenly going to be the father of two kids."

"The father of two... kids?!"

Sheng Zexi looked up abruptly, gazing at Gu Jia Ning in shock, "Ningning, you, you mean?"

"I’ve checked, there are two kids in my belly! So you’re the father of two kids, and I’m the mother, how about that, are you happy?"

Sheng Zexi walked over, gently placed his hand on Gu Jia Ning’s slightly curved belly, eyes reddening, "I’m happy, I’m very happy."

How could he not be happy?

He had always thought he would never have children.

Later, marrying Ningning, healing his body, he began to hope for children with his beloved.

Even after Ningning got pregnant.

He dared not hope too much, just felt that having one in this lifetime, he would be satisfied.

But now, Ningning surprised him with two kids at once!

How could Sheng Zexi not be overjoyed?

He blinked desperately, trying not to let the tears fall.

"By the way, have you told your parents and grandparents yet, it’s already been three months," Sheng Zexi asked.

"Not yet, I was thinking of telling them when you came back."

"Alright, then we’ll call them together tomorrow."

"Okay."

When the kang bed-stove was ready, Sheng Zexi carried Gu Jia Ning onto it, where she nestled in his arms, quietly enjoying the warmth and security he provided.

"A lot happened while you were away on a mission."

Gu Jia Ning recounted to Sheng Zexi the events of the past month, like her passing the exam and becoming a doctor in the Chinese medicine department of the military hospital.

"My wife is really amazing, I knew you could do it," Sheng Zexi patted Gu Jia Ning’s head proudly.

His words were full of praise. Since they got married, the man who was once like a hedgehog, bristling with thorns and sharp-tongued to drive others away, only had praises for his wife. In front of Gu Jia Ning, it seemed he had shed all his defenses, left with only tenderness.

"Of course I’m amazing, otherwise how could I cure so many people and even your body, and help Sister Shu Wan, Sister in law Jiang, and even myself get pregnant." Gu Jia Ning was not a modest person. Hearing Sheng Zexi’s praise, she was even happier.

"It’s because I’m excellent in medicine that I could earn an award for this rescue."

"I heard, when a military wife wins an award, it brings honor to the husband and helps with future promotions too."

Gu Jia Ning also talked to Sheng Zexi about the rescue from the landslide in Xinghua Village, and also mentioned Amber’s matter.

Gu Jia Ning thought Sheng Zexi would continue to praise her but turned around to find his expression full of heartache, "Ningning, you were pregnant, participated in rescue operations, without rest, it must have been hard on you."

"Ningning, you should think more about yourself and the kids."

Otherwise, if something happened to Ningning and the kids, what would he do?

Actually, when he returned from the mission and saw her on the podium receiving a prize for outstanding performance in the rescue, he was happy for her, but that was not his deepest wish.

His deepest wish was to return home to find her and the children safe and waiting for him.

He didn’t want anything else, didn’t need her to do anything to contribute to his promotion; he just wanted her and the children to be safe, and that would be enough.

Gu Jia Ning heard the heartache in Sheng Zexi’s words, held him in return, looked up and said: "I know, don’t worry, I know my limits."

Actually, it was also because she had taken the Pregnancy Holy Body Pill and the Pregnancy Comfort Pill, her body and the kids were healthy, so even if she worked through a day and night rescue, she was just a bit tired and hungry, the rest was okay.

Truth be told, Gu Jia Ning wasn’t one to sacrifice herself for others, she was selfish too, and would think for herself first.

Only after considering herself would she think of others.

"Mm, it’s good you know your limits, Ningning, you’ve worked hard, doing so much while I wasn’t here." Sheng Zexi softly kissed Gu Jia Ning’s hair, his eyes full of deep affection.

"You haven’t told me about your mission this time, of course, I’m not asking about the content, just why it took so long when you said it would be at most a month?"

God knows, when a month passed and Sheng Zexi hadn’t returned, how worried she was.

"You have no idea, how worried I was, I even had a nightmare..." Gu Jia Ning told Sheng Zexi the content of the nightmare she had.

After hearing it, Sheng Zexi’s expression turned somewhat strange.

"Ningning, I’m beginning to suspect you can have prophetic dreams..." Sheng Zexi remarked, avoiding the mission content, he briefly shared some encounters during the mission, like comrades being severely injured, his use of a hemostatic bandage, and ultimately saving their lives.
