The Villain's Wife Chapter 523 Happiness

The Villain's Wife 523 Happiness

For Zhou Jingren, happiness is relative. The slice of bread or the clean water that will make the poor happy is not something that could impress the rich. For years, he believed that happiness is subjective. However, he also knew that the best type of happiness is the one inside you. It is the explosion of emotions inside a person.

To Zhou Jingren happiness is Lily. It's seeing her happy, seeing her smile- it's her. All of her. She is his happiness, his life. However, he never thought that one day, he would feel something more… than what he felt when she agreed to marry him. More than what he felt when she asked him to kiss her.

It was something that no words, not even the ones with the deepest meanings, could comprehend.

He smiled softly as he curled his hands around Lily's hands. He slowly squeezed her fingers. The happiness that he felt when the doctor informed him that she was pregnant was something otherworldly. It was surreal. He wondered how Lily would react about the news. Would she smile? Would she cry? Maybe she will do both at the same time.

He knew how she had always wanted to have a child. Though Lily never said it straight into his face, he knew how much she struggled inside. Slowly, Zhou Jingren kissed the back of Lily's hand before he stroked her cheek.

He saw her eyelids fluttered. "Hey," Lily's voice was soft and weak but her eyes were far from that. Her gaze immediately turned alert as she roamed her eyes around the room. She blinked for a few times. She was probably making sure that she was not dreaming. That he was indeed sitting next to her.

Zhou Jingren felt a sudden throb in his chest as he thought of Lily's thoughts. "Hey… I am here." His words had the promise of a.s.surance, certainty. He leaned closer towards her as he met her eyes.

"How are you feeling?" he asked and clutched her hand tighter. He wanted her to feel his warmth. He wanted to tell her that she was safe. That he is here… with her. And that he will never go away.

"I feel sleepy." She answered. "I fainted." He nodded in response. "Is there something wrong with me?" her brows knitted. Seeing Zhou Jingren shook his head, Lily heaved a sigh of relief. "Then… what is it? Was it the stress?" Lily fears that it had actually something to do with her anxiousness lately.

Once again, he shook his head and stroked her head. "We're pregnant." His voice was slow, soft, and comforting.

"I'm sorry?"

Seeing her confused gaze, Zhou Jingren smiled a gentle smile. "I said… You and I are going to have a child soon." Lily widened her eyes for a few seconds before tears pooled in her eyes. No words came from her mouth as she nodded.

"We're pregnant," she met his eyes as she felt her world explode. Various emotions flooded inside her. A slight smile escaped her lips as she absorbed his words.

We're pregnant.

It was a short declaration that contains a.s.surance. It was as if he was telling her that he would always stand next to her, care for her, and be her support no matter what happens. He was telling her that he will accompany her on this new journey.

"Six weeks." Zhou Jingren smiled and leaned closer to kiss her forehead. "I love you."

Lily nodded and close her eyes to savor this special moment. Then she felt him sat next to her. He rested his forehead against hers, his hot breath caressed her cheeks. He let out a slight chuckle before Lily felt a drop of his tears on her face.

She didn't need to open her eyes to know that her husband was crying. She stayed silent. This was their moment, and there are no words enough to fathom the emotions that they currently feel. This is a moment that she — no. This is a moment that the two of them will treasure forever.

Lily's arms unconsciously made its way into Zhou Jingren body. She hugged him, pulling him into an embrace. "Thank you," she uttered softly as tears fell from her eyes. "We love you."

…

"Alright, this will be the tests that we are going to perform in the next few days. And these are the vitamins that you have to take. If you want to take something from abroad, you can also do it. Just inform me or ask me if it is suitable for you and the baby. You are not allowed to do any heavy lifting on the first trimester. You are not allowed to stand or sit on lengthy periods either." The doctor handed the prescription to Zhou Jingren as he eyed Lily and smiled.

"This may sound like it's too much but please understand that you had problems with your ovaries before. So please… do not make any hasty movements and stay in bed as much as possible. That is until the end of the first trimester."

"How about exercise?"

"It is best to avoid it for now." The doctor said. "You can do it in the third trimester. For now, you have to be as gentle as possible to your body. Eat healthy foods and avoid stress. More fruits and vegetables and sleep more."

Lily nodded as smiled at her husband. "How about...." A mischievous smile escaped her lips as she gave a meaningful glance at Zhou Jingren.

"Oh! that matter!" The doctor laughed. Most of the time, the husbands were the ones really eager to ask these types of questions. "It is best to avoid it for now. It can wait." he eyed Zhou Jingren. "President Zhou… Please control yourself. A few months is not that long. This is for the baby and Mrs. Zhou's overall health."

Zhou Jingren chuckled in response. He nodded at the doctor's words. When it comes to shamelessness, is there really anyone that is more shameless than his wife?
