Chapter 1175: 1150, Extra Story Seventeen (32) Chapter 1175: 1150, Extra Story Seventeen (32) Quan Shanshan didnât think too much and simply handed over her hand, which Weng Ya took with two fingers on Shanshanâs wrist.
Everyone watched curiously, their eyes brimming with excitement. If it was indeed true, this would definitely be the Quan Familyâs little golden treasure.
After a moment, Weng Ya withdrew her hand, a smile that she couldnât hide at the corner of her mouth.
âHow is it?â Old Mrs. Quan asked nervously.
Weng Ya didnât keep them in suspense, and her next words blew everyone away, âMom, congratulations, youâre going to be upgraded again.â
The implication of those words was clearâit was true.
Shanshan was pregnant!
Time seemed to freeze for a moment; after a few seconds of brief silence, laughter erupted in the living room.
âThis is fantastic, Shanshan, congratulations to you both,â Maomao said excitedly.
Xi Anâan said, âShanshan, congrats, youâre going to be a hot mom.â
âShanshan and Mu Chen have beaten us to it again.â Jian Tianlin looked up at Quan Tianqi with a hint of helplessness amid the joy.
Quan Tianqiâs eyebrows lifted slightly, and his gaze fell on the woman beside him. A shadow of determination passed through his eyesâhe couldnât lag behind Shanshan so much, let alone fall behind by nineteen steps.
Quan Shanshan stared dazedly at Mu Chen, utterly uncomprehending, âMu Chen, what are they talking about?â
âWeâre going to have a baby,â Mu Chen said with surprising calmness, a facade for the storm of emotion churning inside him.
Their child.
The little light bulb was on its way.
After three seconds of silence, Quan Shanshan shrieked, a bright and excited glow lighting up her eyes, âMu Chen, weâre going to have a baby!â
Mu Chen wrapped his arms tighter around her, and seeing the smile on her face, he couldnât suppress his grin, âYes, weâre going to have a baby.â
With Quan Shanshan pregnant, the Quan family were beside themselves with joy, and Old Mrs. Quan especially couldnât contain herself, picking up the phone to share the good news with everyone.
First and foremost, she called Quan Jingwu and Jian Qing, who were vacationing abroad.
Xi Anâan watched the Quan familyâs joyful expressions and felt a surge of envy in her heart. Such a happy family was truly wonderful.
Suddenly, a manâs hand with distinct knuckles covered hers.
Xi Anâan turned to look at Quan Tianqi, smiling sweetly, âWhat is it?â
Quan Tianqi shifted closer, resting his chin on her shoulder, âWhen will you bear me a little monkey, hmm?â
âEveryoneâs around,â Xi Anâan said with an embarrassed smile, elbowing him lightly.
Quan Tianqi lowered his voice, coaxing her with a deep tone, âThe weather will be nice tomorrow; how about we go get our certificate?â
âHow do you know tomorrowâs weather will be nice?â Xi Anâan laughed at his reasoningâit was a bit too far-fetched.
âAs long as youâre by my side, the weather will always be good,â Quan Tianqi said, tilting his head and his lips brushing gently across her soft cheek.
Like a dragonfly skimming the water, he left behind a barely perceptible warmth.
Xi Anâanâs cheeks blushed, âMy ear tickles, donât whisper in it.â
âThen let me rub it for you,â Quan Tianqi said, without waiting for her to move away. He encircled her waist with one arm, while the other hand gently caressed her ear.
This only made Xi Anâanâs ear tickle even more.
âTianqi, stop it,â she said, drawing her neck in and pushing his hand away.
âSo, do you agree or not?â Quan Tianqi pressed, seizing the moment to ask.
âAgree to what?â she asked, feigning ignorance.
âGetting our marriage license.â
âWho talks about getting a marriage license without a proposal? Besides, weâve just established our relationship as boyfriend and girlfriend; we should at least have an adjustment period,â Xi Anâan murmured, looking down.
She had said several things, but Quan Tianqi focused on the first, âSo if I propose, youâll get the license with me?â
Xi Anâanâs forehead creasedâshe felt like he was pushing her into marriage.
âLetâs talk about it later,â she deflected.
With so many people around, she didnât want to become a laughingstock, and there was no hole for her to crawl into here.
Determined, Quan Tianqi didnât pursue the matter any further; the marriage license was a done deal in his mind, and he had to make it happen before nineteen.
If nineteen got there first, the guy would surely brag about it for a long time, his tail would be wagging up to the sky.
âŠ
Against the azure sky and white clouds, the weather was clear and beautiful.
Xi Anâan sat in the car, looking at the closed gates ahead, her mouth twitching slightly, âTianqi, why did you bring me here?â
Did he really pick today because of the good weather to go get their certificate?
Quan Tianqi unbuckled his seat belt and pinched her cheek lightly, a mischievous smile playing on his lips, âWhat do you think?â
Xi Anâan was speechless.
She cleared her throat, âI didnât bring my family register.â
âI brought it.â
âYou might have brought yours, but I didnât bring mine,â she pointed out.
Before she could finish speaking, the man pulled out two little booklets from his pocketâone was his family register and the other was all too familiar to her.
Because it was her family register.
âHow did you get this?â
âTook it from the cabinet,â Quan Tianqi replied nonchalantly.
Seeing his serious response, Xi Anâan chuckled, âWho agreed to let you take it?â
He said, âYou did.â
âWhen did I agree?â Xi Anâan felt blindsided by the accusation.
âThat day in the study room, you were talking in your sleep, and you agreed to it,â Quan Tianqi put away the family registers, the deep pools of his eyes brimming with laughter.
â?â
Talking in her sleep?
That had to be a joke.
Since when did sleep talking count as consent?
It seemed he could see through her thoughts, and Quan Tianqi said unhurriedly, âWith me, even words spoken in dreams count as promises.â
