Jiang Nian was not only teased by fate, but also caught by Han Xiao. The return ticket was booked for the next morning.
In fact, she was physically and mentally exhausted, and had suffered great damage to her soul. She followed Han Xiao with almost no resistance. But the thought of going home soon and finally ending this wandering life, and that the Fantastic Four Fishing would reunite again could be considered a little comfort to her.
At first, Han Xiao was stunned for a while. He probably didn’t expect Jiang Nian would be so obedient. But he knew Jiang Nian well; he’d been hit with a slap after a sweet date twice before. It could just be a lie for him to relax his vigilance and give her the opportunity to run.
This time, he didn’t dare to take her words at face value. Not only did he stare at her relentlessly 24/7, he had his small assistant act as jailor with him. If something went wrong before they returned


Han Xiao looked at the small assistant with a smile: “This is a good opportunity for you to make up for your work.”
The little assistant felt a chill down his back, and immediately swore to the sky.
“President Han, rest assured, mistress Nian will absolutely be fine!”
While Han Xiao explained to the small assistant, Jiang Nian had finished eating the bird’s nest and was going to take a nap in the room.
He looked at the clumsy figure of Jiang Nian who was helped to stand up, somewhat happy, somewhat distressed, and somewhat guilty.
Women having children was a blessing and a curse.
Han Xiao went to the hospital before going abroad. He asked a doctor to inquire about various conditions encountered by a woman from pregnancy to childbirth. She would have morning sickness in the early stages. As the fetus grew, pregnant mothers would also swell with stretch marks. Pregnancy also affected memory and, of course, it was not easy to sleep at night. The most terrible thing was that having a child at the end is equivalent to a half-step into a ghost gate!1 Moreover, they’d still have to take care of the child after giving birth.
Han Xiao broke into a cold sweat when he heard those words.
Jiang Nian already looked petite and fragile. Besides, she’d come all alone, which made him even more uneasy and unable to stop thinking about it.
However, he hadn’t been idle in Paris either. In addition to searching for Jiang Nian’s whereabouts every day, he also read a lot of parenting books, and relished them with interest. Who’d think that he, Han Wushao, would do something like that? He couldn’t have been forced before, but now he was willing.
Just for a woman named Jiang Nian.
Han Xiao went to the bedroom after explaining to the little assistant. Jiang Nian was resting in the room at the moment. He sat at the bedside, watching Jiang Nian lying sideways with her belly in her hands and frowning. Needless to say, he felt heartache.
Han Xiao wanted to talk to her carefully, but her emotions were extremely low along the way, and he didn’t feel comfortable mentioning anything else. Her promise to return to the country was already all he could ask for.
He stroked her slightly frowning eyebrows and gently rubbed her fingers over her face. The person he missed most was in front of him, and he just wanted to hold her in his arms.
Jiang Nian’s sleep was very shallow. She felt the itchy sensation on her face and opened her eyes in a confused way. Han Xiao’s hand paused, concealed the affection in his eyes, and was embarrassed to be caught.
“Sorry, did I wake you up?”
She looked at him and kicked her lower leg.
“My leg is cramped, and you rub it for me.”
Han Xiao served someone for the first time, and he was quite messy. Fortunately, Jiang Nian didn’t have high requirements- as long as he could relieve pain. Han Xiao rubbed for a while and asked if she was better. If she was still uncomfortable, call a doctor!
Jiang Nian smiled and spoke, “Don’t be nervous, it’s a normal phenomenon. If you go to the doctor for just a cramp, wouldn’t the hospital be too busy?”
Of course, Han Xiao knew that this was normal, but he still couldn’t help but be nervous.
“Does it hurt every day?”
Jiang Nian thought for a while.
“It’s okay, just occasionally.”
“From now on, call me if you’re hurting or feeling uncomfortable.”
His lowered eyebrows were very good-looking, and his hand movements weren’t too light but very gentle.
“Niannian, don’t run away. I will take care of you in the future. Come home with me, OK?”
Jiang Nian smiled and said, “Haven’t you booked the tickets already?”
Han Xiao looked up at her with deep eyes, serious and persistent.
“I want you to promise me personally, and be willing to go home with me voluntarily. I know that my previous actions were untrustworthy; getting divorced and then back together were all my initiative and I selfishly never asked your opinion. But I have been different since I fell in love with you. My eyes and heart have only you, and my future has only you. I can give you everything I can, just please let me take care of you from now on.”
He suddenly knelt next to her bed, and took out a diamond ring from somewhere.
“Niannian, I was forced to marry you the first time, but now I want it. Niannian, marry me again. This time, I won’t let you regret it, and I won’t give you a chance to regret it. I’ll be with you in the future, drinking tea and watching the flowers with you, playing football in the yard with our child with you, playing basketball with you, and, when we’re old, go fishing with you.”
Jiang Nian: “Considering your aggressive expression before, you’re not angry?”
“Angry, very angry. I was angry you mysteriously disappeared without a word, without even mentioning the child to me.”
But this anger, every time he saw Jiang Nian, would decrease a point, and one more glance, it went down even more. Until, now, he found all of his anger was gone, and only distress and love remained.
Han Xiao said, “I must have done something wrong, so that you don’t trust me, so that you choose to leave.”
Jiang Nian felt that Han Xiao was really a master of love, and what he said would always move people’s hearts. But she still quite liked him. She took the ring in Han Xiao’s hand and pinched it in her hand.
“Actually, I know, if you don’t care about me, you can’t find my pregnancy.”
Han Xiao was overjoyed. Where would he be silly enough to confirm again at this time? He took it as Jiang Nian agreed and stepped forward to hug her into his arms. He smelled the familiar sweet taste on her body and was obsessed.
“Niannian , I love you.”
Jiang Nian was out of breath and slapped his back.
“Lighter. Be careful of my stomach.”
Han Xiao was so happy that he touched Jiang Nian’s round belly with one hand.
As soon as he touched it, he felt that his hand was hit by something. He was shocked speechless, only regaining his senses when the little force hit him again in the palm of his hand.
“He, he moved? Did he kick me?”
Jiang Nian said, “Yes, this child must be so lively like you. He’s so noisy I can’t sleep at night.”
“Then when he comes out, I’ll spank him!”
Jiang Nian shook her head seriously.
“How can I do that? If anyone spanks it should be me.”
Han Xiao: “



good”

Jiang Nian accepted his ring and Han Xiao immediately called his grandfather saying he had found Jiang Nian, and she also agreed to him. He announced their arrival time of the next evening so that the old man wouldn’t worry.
In addition, it was unknown when Han Zhongcheng returned from Bali. He was shocked when he heard what happened at home. And couldn’t help but scold Han Xiao as well. Han Zhongcheng himself was also a wife slave. Although his wife had been dead for many years, he had not forgotten her one day, and because of this, he sent his love to the landscape.2
What happened at home was not immediately told to Han Zhongcheng. After all, he was traveling at the time and no one wanted to distract him too much. So when he returned and found that the house had undergone tremendous changes, and he couldn’t help but want to hit people.
Han Xiao was also very miserable. His father and grandfather scolded the ground he walked on. Of course, no matter how they scolded Han Xiao, he was very happy. Now there should be nothing that could make him unhappy.
Early the next morning, Jiang Nian grabbed her small bag again, loaded her passbook and deeds to four small houses, and returned home. Although, it was a pity that she had not lived in the small house on the XX river bank.
She’d been alone for so long, and now couldn’t wait to return home. Although Han Xiao was happy, he was more worried that Jiang Nian might have a hard time staying on the plane for more than ten hours. Jiang Nian felt nothing, anyway, she was accustomed to hardships and suffering, this much was nothing. Not to mention, with the small deeds still on her, she had unlimited power!
Han Xiao was distressed again.
Little assistant: “


”
This terrible rich world!
****
When Jiang Nian and Han Xiao arrived home, it was about nine o’clock in the evening. Father Han knew that Jiang Nian was coming back and waited at the door without sleeping at night. The entire Han family was brightly lit, even Liu Lao and Li Lao were there. Liu Zhengyang and Li Fei also came, not for anything else, just to see how Jiang Nian, who had stolen their grandfather’s love, was doing now. Of course, they also wanted to see Han Xiao’s joke.
The romantic Han Wushao turned into an infatuated wife slave. This was a hot topic recently discussed in the circle. Everyone wanted to interview Han Wushao’s mental journey. After all, the marriage was lively, the divorce was lively, and the process of seeking remarriage with the ex-wife was even livelier.
Liu Zhengyang and Li Fei touched the light of the old men in the family3 and were able to see the rumored heroine for the first time. In their imagination, Jiang Nian went abroad with a big belly so she definitely didn’t live any good days, just like when they went abroad as foreign student for a period of time in high school.
Although there was no language barrier, it was a foreign country in the end, and it was inevitable to be discriminated against and treated differently by unfamiliar people. Not to mention, they weren’t used to the food, and the learning content was very different, and
In short, it was not a good time.
Could Jiang Nian, who even had difficulty moving and had never been abroad, fare better while pregnant?
Han Xiao found her quickly. Jiang Nian was probably afraid waiting in a foreign country and agreed to him happily.(T/N: Not sure on translation, anyone want to take a crack at it: éŸ©ć•žæ‰Ÿèż‡ćŽ»ïŒŒćȘæ€•æ±Ÿćż”äčŸæ˜Żç­‰äș†ćˆç­‰ïŒŒćżƒé‡Œè€é«˜ć…Žäș†ć‘ą.)
Reconciliation now probably wasn’t a good thing. (T/N: From what I guess, they worry the reconciliation was just out of JN’s desperation and not from any real feelings for HX? But a proper translation of the sentence above would clear this up!)
But soon, they found that they seemed to be wrong?
Several black cars were parked in the yard, Han Xiao got out of the car, quickly detoured to the other side to oep the door for Jiang Nian, and then came around to help the pregnant woman with a big belly. She smiled and looked good. Although she was a lot fatter, the rounded cheeks were cute.
The two got out of the car, and the people in the car behind also came down. The little assistant emerged with two unknown foreigners, two Chinese people, and a strong looking man with trembling muscles.
Why did Han Xiao bring home so many people back home?
The few old men over there pulled Jiang Nian for a good feast. Han Lao said, “Oh, look at this, it’s thin. I asked Aunt Wang to cook your favorite catfish soup. Wait a bit longer and you can go have a drink!”
Liu Lao also said, “It’s a lot of hard work staying outside. Don’t leave this time. If Han Xiao dares to do anything sorry for you just kick him away, don’t let him go home.”
Li Lao said, “You have deceived us miserably, we really believed your nonsense about going out to play! But next time, this is not allowed. If there’s any problem, just say it. We old men will support you.”
Jiang Nian was also very happy: “I didn’t expect our Fantastic Four Fishing to reunite so early, it’s great!”
Three old masters: “



”
It seemed a little embarrassing to say in front of so many people.
Everyone in the Han family: “


”
Second Uncle Han came over and said it was good that she come back. The person who should leave in the future was Han Xiao, so she could live comfortably. Han Zhongcheng was not good at talking and simply patted Jiang Nian on the shoulder, asking if she had been tired travelling for more than ten hours, and told her to hurry to eat something and go back to rest!
Of course, while he was distressed by Jiang Nian, he did not forget to glare at Han Xiao who was left out of the crowd. Han Xiao touched his nose, his wife returned, and he was nothing.
Liu Zhengyang and Li Fei stepped forward and hooked Han Xiao’s shoulders.
“Wuge, terrible, finally chased the sister-in-law.”
Han Xiao shook them away: “Men don’t stick so close. Stay away from me.”
Li Fei wiped his tears: “
You didn’t say that when you came to bring us food!”
Han Xiao: “Oh.”
Liu Zhengyang and Li Fei calmed their little hearts. Anyway, their grandpas’ love and brother’s love were already taken away by Jiang Nian.
But they still could not help but say: “You don’t think your wife is too protected? Come on, why did only two of you leave but seven came back? Are those staff you looked for to take care of sister-in-law? You’re more and more overprotective! Has the legendary Han Wushao fallen?”
Han Xiao glanced at them, not wanting to say anything. He only wanted to protect his wife and take her for dinner. She just took a plane and didn’t sleep or eat well and had to make up for it. But there were too many people protecting her. Now, she was held in the center of a crowd, and he couldn’t even grasp a piece of her clothing!
Liu Zhengyang and Li Fei looked at Han Xiao’s dog legs4 and rolled their eyes together.
Suddenly they heard a faint voice in their ears saying, “Those are the madam’s hires.”
Liu Zhengyang and Li Fei looked at the little assistant: “Jiang Nian’s?”
“Yes, a bodyguard, a personal assistant, a nutritionist. And because pregnancy isn’t suited for eating out, she invited a chef to make meals at any time.”
Liu Zhengyang and Li Fei: “


??”



So pampered, then how can you still stand here feeling distressed? From time to time, a grandfather would sigh and say that Jiang Nian was alone, displaced, wandering, and had a big belly. It was so distressing, ah


They didn’t believe that their grandfathers did not know the situation!
“By the way, the background behind Jiang Nian’s picture we looked at before seems to be an old castle?”
“Yes, that’s the wife’s property.”
Liu Zhengyang & Li Fei were surprised.
“
The house she bought was an old castle?”5
The little assistant said lightly, “No, there are still two or three properties.”
“

 Sorry to bother you, we’re gone!
