When the two of them returned home, the red rose bouquet in Ji Lingchen’s hand caught Old Master Ji’s interest.
Old Master Ji said, “Ah, not bad. Ji Lingchen is considerate enough to buy roses for Xiaonuan. That’s unexpected.”
Fang Xiaonuan said, “That’s not true, Dad. I’m the one who gave him these flowers.”
“Ah?” Old Master Ji looked at Ji Lingchen in surprise and said, “You actually asked your wife to buy roses for you? Don’t you feel embarrassed? You even have the cheek to carry them around. Hurry up and go out and buy a bunch of roses for Xiaonuan.”
Fang Xiaonuan held her husband’s arm with one hand and took off her shoes with the other. “Ah, Dad, a bouquet of roses is only 400 yuan. My husband took me out to a western restaurant for dinner. Even 4000 Yuan wasn’t enough to cover the bill. In the end, I still took advantage of him.”
Ji Wen suddenly interrupted, “So you’re saying that the romantic date you went on today was with my uncle?”
Fang Xiaonuan nodded. “Yes, I deliberately didn’t tell you. Otherwise, my husband would have called you and casually threatened you, and you would have exposed all of my plans.”

Old Master Ji still felt that his son was doing something wrong. How could he let a girl send him flowers?
Fang Xiaonuan said, “In a marriage, there are two people. Women need romance, flowers, and small gifts. However, men also need them. Nowadays, they all advocate equality between men and women. If only men give flowers, how can it be called equality? My husband has given me a lot of love, so I’ll give him a little surprise every now and then!”
Fang Xiaonuan’s words successfully convinced everyone present. They all felt that her view of marriage was very pleasant.
Ji Lingchen, on the other hand, felt that he had married a precious wife. He pulled his wife, who was talking, into his arms and asked, “Who taught you all this?”
Fang Xiaonuan said proudly, “No one taught me. I figured it out myself. Aren’t I nice?”
Hearing that, Feng Qi began to recall what she had done for her husband in all these years. She muttered, “I don’t think I’ve ever given your brother roses.”
On the other hand, Mayor Ji, who was usually quiet, would buy his wife small gifts and flowers every Chinese Valentine’s Day.
Feng Qi looked at her husband beside her and could not help but feel a little guilty. Tears welled up in her eyes.
Seeing that his wife was not in a good mood, Mayor Ji quickly went over to hug his wife and said, “I don’t want flowers. Every day when I come home and see the two of you happy, I already feel the greatest happiness.”
Fang Xiaonuan realized that her words had affected her sister-in-law. She quickly pointed at the lazy Ji Wen on the sofa and said, “Sister-in-law, although you did not send flowers to Big Brother, didn’t you send him a most precious gift?”
Mayor Ji and Feng Qi’s gazes fell on their son who was sitting on the sofa. Him?
Ji Wen also looked at his parents and then at Fang Xiaonuan, inexplicably feeling a little guilty.
Fang Xiaonuan said firmly, “Sister-in-law, he was born after ten months of hard work. Isn’t he the most precious gift? If I had a baby in my belly, I wouldn’t have spent 400 yuan to buy flowers.”
“Then when are you going to give birth to the most precious gift?” Ji Wen asked.
Ji Lingchen also looked at his little wife curiously, looking forward to her answer.

Fang Xiaonuan said shamelessly, “I want to give birth after you. When that time comes, your son will call my son little uncle.”
Old Master Ji also joined in the conversation and said, “Xiaonuan, since you’re still young, you should have a baby earlier. If you’re afraid that you’ll miss school, it’s fine. I’m still in good health, so I can take care of the baby for you at home.”
Feng Qi also chimed in, “Yeah, you’re still a child. After you have a baby, you can be friends with the child. How great would that be?”
Mayor Ji said, “Yes, you can have the baby now. Your sister-in-law is free, so she can take care of the baby for you. If you wait until you graduate and work, you won’t be as free. You won’t even be able to rest properly when you’re pregnant. Besides, if Ji Wen gets married and has children, your sister-in-law won’t be able to take care of your children.”
Even the butler joined in. “Young madam, if you give birth now, I can help take care of the children too.”
Ji Lingchen, who usually had a cold expression, was now smiling so wide that his mouth could not close. For the first time, he felt like his family was so wonderful. Not only did they find him a precious wife, but they were also helping him get children.
Fang Xiaonuan panicked. She tugged at Ji Lingchen’s sleeve and said coquettishly, “Hubby, let’s go back to our room. This place is not suitable for human survival…”
Ji Lingchen looked at his wife’s flat stomach. “So, Xiaonuan, do you want to get pregnant?”
