"???"
Xia Wenqing hadn't expected their pleasant atmosphere to collapse so suddenly due to Xu Zhenzhen's words.
He was startled for a moment, and then he couldn't help but smile wryly.
"What on earth are you thinking about?" Xia Wenqing rubbed her head with a hint of helplessness in his tone.
His touch was gentle, as if he were petting a little cat.
Xu Zhenzhen was quite pleased and smiled radiantly as if nothing had happened between them before.
Xia Wenqing quietly looked into Xu Zhenzhen's eyes, as though he had just thought of something, "I heard from Zhaozhao that you're pregnant..."
"Um." Xu Zhenzhen nodded, "It's true."
A flicker of self-reproach crossed Xia Wenqing's eyes as he gently crouched down, embracing Xu Zhenzhen and resting his face against her belly, "I failed to protect you both. I should have tried harder."
