Daddy Always Gets Jealous

Even though it was over the phone, the voice sounded very similar, but he knew, it wasn’t them!

So, it really was Fang Zheng.

Apart from him, he couldn’t think of a second person around him who could pull off such a trick.

He didn’t have much time, and he needed to go over everything at work that went through Fang Zheng’s hands.

He hung up the phone and returned to the living room. Huo Bei was already there, and dinner was also ready.

He went to the dining room with Yan Xiaoxi to help serve the food and dishes.

Zhong Qin looked at him, ”Have you been busy lately?”

Jin Bo, ”Yes.”

Zhong Qin wanted to ask about the progress of the case but swallowed it back. She was afraid Xiaoxi would worry, and besides, it’s rare for the family to have a relaxed meal together, so it seemed better not to talk about such heavy topics.

Once everything was tidied up, she sat next to Jin Bo and looked at Yan Xiaoxi on the other side, ”Xiaoxi, eat more, I see you eat very little every day.”

Yan Xiaoxi, ”Got it, Auntie.”

She picked up her chopsticks and ate very delicately.

Jin Bo glanced at her and added another piece of braised pork to her plate, intentionally picking a lean piece, ”You didn’t used to be this picky, why are you just eating this?”

Yan Xiaoxi just took a bite and felt nauseous from the greasy taste, sitting there without moving for a long time.

Seeing her complexion, Jin Bo frowned, ”What’s wrong?”

Yan Xiaoxi felt chest tightness, the nausea growing stronger, ”It’s nothing.”

She stood up and went to the bathroom.

Zhong Qin glanced over and her gaze fell on Jin Bo, ”Is the food not to Xiaoxi’s taste? What does she like to eat?”

Jin Bo thought about it. When they were usually together, she seemed to eat everything just fine, but she did have some favorites.

He sat there and listed a few dishes.

Zhong Qin, ”We made those a few days ago, and you know Mom Rong’s cooking skills, but Xiaoxi didn’t seem to eat much either.”

Mom Rong, being there, originally thought she didn’t cook well, but upon hearing this, couldn’t help but speak up, ”Could it be that Xiaoxi is—”

Thinking of pregnancy, and seeing Huo Bei there, she stopped speaking further.

After all, since the eldest master and Miss Xiaoxi weren’t married yet, if Huo Bei weren’t there, she might have continued.

But with Huo Bei around, she figured he wouldn’t want to hear it.

However, the beauty of language is that, having said this much and leaving the rest unsaid, everyone could guess seventy to eighty percent.

The old master, mindful of Huo Bei, didn’t let a smile slip, but the pleased expression was already on his face, impossible to hide.

Zhong Qin gently coughed without voicing further.

No wonder, but if she’s pregnant, a burden in her heart feels lighter.

She had always worried that the virus might have caused the boss to lose fertility, a thought she couldn’t voice, just kept it stuffed in her heart.

Huo Jinnan acted as if he heard nothing, taking a glance at Jin Bo.

Jin Bo, ”...”

Why is everyone looking at him?

If she’s really pregnant, isn’t that a good thing? It’s like he’s done something unforgivable.

Especially Huo Bei, who looked at Jin Bo, ”Feeling complicated.”

Qin Huan wanted to check in, but it wasn’t the right moment to say it directly, ”I’ll go to the restroom too.”

She went to the living room bathroom, raised her hand, and softly knocked on the door.

Yan Xiaoxi opened the door and saw Qin Huan, her face very pale, thinking that she might be her sister-in-law in the future, ”Huanhuan, can you help bring my toothbrush from upstairs?”

Qin Huan, ”Okay.”

She went upstairs and quickly brought Yan Xiaoxi’s toothbrush.

After Yan Xiaoxi brushed her teeth and no longer felt the sour taste in her mouth, she left the bathroom.
