Chapter 263: Go with the Flow
"What are you thinking about that makes you smile like that?" Di Mingjue casually scratched her nose.
Gu Qibao blushed and embarrassingly replied, "I was thinking about what our baby might look like."
A proud expression instantly lit up on Di Mingjue’s face. Pulling the woman in his arms closer, he confidently said, "If it’s a son, he’ll definitely be handsome. And if it’s a daughter, she’ll undoubtedly be beautiful."
Gu Qibao pouted. This guy was absolutely full of himself!
Even so, the Di family genes were truly excellent, with all siblings boasting long legs, stunning looks, and a royal air of elegance.
Gu Qibao innocently looked at Di Mingjue, imagining in her mind the face of their possible child.
Seeing her lost in thought, Di Mingjue couldn’t help but chuckle. He stroked her hair and teasingly raised his eyebrows, "No need to drool over your husband, if you want, you’ll soon have a mini version of him."
To be honest, Gu Qibao felt a tug in her heart upon hearing his words. It was truly tempting!
However, the thought of giving birth kindled an unexplainable sense of fear within her.
"I... " Gu Qibao blinked and answered honestly, "I am a bit scared."
After all, she was only nineteen. She wasn’t even twenty yet!
While it was true that she was now married, the sudden prospect of having a baby caught her off guard, filling her heart with apprehension.
"Scared of what?" Di Mingjue raised an eyebrow, "Scared of the pain?"
Gu Qibao nodded. Yes, she was indeed scared of the pain. Most likely, every woman would be!
"Look at your lack of courage." Di Mingjue reproached in a distaste tone, his eyes, however, full of tenderness, reassured her, "There’s nothing to be afraid of. I’ll be with you every step of the way."
"But, but," Gu Qibao nervously looked at him and suddenly retorted, "You won’t be the one in pain."
Pausing on her words, Di Mingjue realized she had a point. But, women give birth, and doesn’t birth involve pain?
"Then let’s just let nature take its course." Di Mingjue answered, "When it happens, it happens, all right?"
Gu Qibao bit her lip slightly. But what if she became pregnant just now since he did not use protection?
Seeing her struggle with her thoughts, Di Mingjue took the initiative to say, "Don’t think about taking birth control pills since we didn’t use protection. If it happens, it’s meant to be. That would be our child, a living being."
His face grew serious as he spoke.
Gu Qibao paused as she considered his words and at last replied, "Sure, let nature take its course."
If she were to become pregnant, abortion was out of the question.
However, if he continued to not use protection at this frequency and potency, Gu Qibao felt there could indeed be a baby soon!
Would she still go to school then?
Would she take a break from school or attend school with a visible belly?
She had just decided she wanted to study at a prestigious university and become a refined lady. All these plans had not even started yet. If she were to become pregnant, wouldn’t all these plans go haywire?
Was this really okay?
She was utterly indecisive and hesitant.
Despite her internal dilemma, Gu Qibao fell asleep on Di Mingjue’s chest due to fatigue.
It seemed that the little one was absolutely tired out.
After cleaning her up, Di Mingjue lovingly carried her to bed.
The next day
After dropping Gu Qibao off at school, Di Mingjue headed to see Di Mingzhe.
Di Mingchen, who had planned to discuss some matters with Di Mingzhe, happened to be there too.
Seeing Di Mingjue, Di Mingchen instantly flashed a teasing smile, "Third brother, seems like your honeymoon trip turned into a vinegar jar."
