He sat up on the bed with her head on his lap while he feeds her pomegranate seeds, her pregnancy cravings are durian and pomegranate seeds or she will go crazy without them. Even the slightest bit of mistake can cost him their peace.
"Han Chen, why don't I find these seeds nice anymore?" she asked, chewing on the seeds he just fed her, he panicked immediately. If she doesn't like it any more then what does she like?
"Your taste might be changing, old nanny just sent durians over, do you want me to get it for you?" he asked, she became uncomfortable moving from place to place in his mansion so they moved back into their apartment.
She shook her head.
"That doesn't taste nice too, I want fried chicken," she demanded with a whiny voice, one he knows she will look back on when she delivers the baby and wonder if she is really the one whining and throwing tantrums over little things.
"The doctor said you should avoid greasy food because they are not good for the baby," he persuaded even though he knows she won't listen, the only one who can restrain her is her mother but she just left yesterday to give them space.
She frowned as she sat up with the help of the cushion for support.
"I have been eating fruits and drinking soups all day, why can't I have fried chicken..." she started sobbing.
"Alright, I will get it for you so please don't cry," he can only give in as soon as her tears drops, she smiled in satisfaction then she nudged him to get going, he climbed down from the bed and quickly rushed out to get the chicken.
He just greeted the security guard and went out of the gate when he heard someone call his name, he turned back only to see it is Roy and Shi Fen. His face brightened with joy, he immediately walked towards them and pulled both in for a hug.
"How have you both been?" he asked
"Very well, this dude got a promotion of one rank higher," Roy answered, Han Chen, punched Shi Fen's shoulder, taking pride in his achievement as someone who was once his underling.
The smiled on their faces slowly faded away when they noticed his footwear.
"Boss, why are you wearing flip-flops out of the house?" not to talk that he is wearing thin clothes in the cold weather.
He looked down then sighed, realising he made a mistake.
"Only a soon to be father can understand," he responded, the trio laughed heartily at the answer then their faces turned serious.
"You two are supposed to be on a mission, why are you back so soon?" their actions cannot get past his eyes, this is just like last time when they came to get him back to the barrack but since he has submitted his resignation before he got married to Yu Yan then it shouldn't be the case.
Roy glanced at Shi Fen then he turned to Han Chen.
"We came to get you back, remember the spy we dealt with on our second mission. He is back again and the higher-ups have ordered that you be the one to lead the mission since you are more familiar with him,"
He chuckled lightly, hoping they are just kidding.
"You are kidding, how can they send me a mission when I am no longer in the service,"
"Actually, it has already been sent off but it hasn't been accepted yet because it was too sudden so the order has been issued for you to leave the service after this mission and failure to do so will be considered insubordination-"
He pulled him closer by his collar then gazed right into his eyes, they both knew he was gonna react like this.
"My wife is six months pregnant and you expect me to go on a mission even after I announced my identity as the CEO of Han Corporation?" he queried in a deep yet threatening voice. He already resigned so Yu Yan doesn't find out but if they force him to then she will find out he lied to her before.
"Boss, we also tried to speak on your behalf but they wouldn't retract their order, if you don't go on this mission then it might be hard for your resignation to be accepted, please think it twice," Shi Fen persuaded. Both he and Roy were punished for refusing to run the errand because they know just how much he wants to stay with Yu Yan. Another mission might cause a conflict between them.
He released his collar then sighed.
"I need to buy fried chicken, you can go in," he handed his security pass to Roy so the security guard doesn't refuse their entry.
They felt guilty watching him leave with a dejected poise.
Knock Knock.
"Did he suddenly forget the passcode?"
She opened the door.
"Are you getting old-"
Her eyes went round at the sight of both guys smiling.
"You two..." it has been so long since she saw them but she wasn't expecting them to come all of a sudden, both placed their hands on her shoulder then they gently pushed her in so she doesn't stand there for a long time wondering why they are here.
"Sit sister-in-law," Shi Fen said as they sat her down in the living room, compared to the stunningly beautiful lady his boss was pursuing, she has gained more weight and her face looks pale but her beauty still remains despite the changes.
"You have really grown compared to the last time I saw you," she said to Shi Fen who rubbed the back of his head shyly.
She sighed lightly.
"f I had known you were going to come then I would have prepared something in advance,"
"It is fine sister-in-law, we are the ones who should have brought you something but we came here in haste because we couldn't attend your wedding but don't worry, we haven't forgotten your wedding gift," Roy responded.
"He just went out to buy fried chicken, I am sure he will be surprised to see you guys,"
"We already met outside, our great boss has now turned into a tamed husband that he even forgot to change his footwear, it is indeed a rare sight to see," Shi Fen joked, they all laughed heartily.
"Sister-in-law, I am sure you don't know about when Boss used to pursue you. Back then, he used to lament his love struggles to us and-"
"There is nothing you want to tell her that you don't know you rascal," Han Chen interrupted as he entered with many fried chicken packs in his hands, Shi Fen really rushed up to him and took some from his hands.
They placed them on the table then he returned to his wife's side. She wasn't surprised that he returned so quickly since the chicken shop is just three minutes away.
"I am sure there are many things you didn't tell her, like the time you drank yourself to waste while staring at her picture, that day, we both tried to make him stop drinking but he wouldn't," they laughed at him while Han Chen looked away in embarrassment, he quickly handed a pack of fried chicken then he took one for himself and signalled the other two to pick theirs up.
They sat around the table eating the fried chicken with beer except for Yu Yan while they joked about the past.
They stayed for a while before they chose to take their leave, Yu Yan tried making them stay over for at least a night but they claimed they had urgent business to attend to so she had to let them go. She noticed Han Chen doesn't look too good but she assumed he must be missing them already, she remembered she forgot to ask about their profession once again.
She got into the bed when it turned dark and waited for him to come into the bed, she still didn't see him even after a while but she was too sleepy so she fell asleep.
He paraded about in his study trying to figure out a way to avoid this mission, he would have loved to go if he wasn't already married to her, even if he had told her before they got married he wouldn't want to leave her alone at this time.
He suddenly remembered the senior colonel whose father had the complicated surgery.
He picked up his phone on the desk then he phoned the senior colonel who picked up almost immediately.
"I am sorry to disturb you this late, sir but I would like to ask you for a favour. The mission I was assigned to...I am afraid I can't go," he apologised as soon as he heard his groggy voice.
"With the favour you did me regarding my father's surgery, I should help you with this mission but I can't. I tried calling it off for you but because of your familiarity with the spy, the higher-ups decided to send you,"
He was going to protest but the call ended before he could say anything else.
He slammed the phone on the desk in frustration.
"Yu Yan..."
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
