If we swapped lives, I'd be the CEO and you'd take care of the kids.

Chapter 145 Meeting Gift

Shen Yanqiu had no objection.

However, at that moment, Zhu Tingyue suddenly heard Shen Yanqiu's voice, filled with doubt and unease: "But, Zhu Tingyue, for some reason, I always have a feeling that I've been kidnapped?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Tingyue couldn't help but chuckle. Her dark eyes curved into crescent shapes as she softly asked, "What could I possibly lie to you about?"

His words were full of teasing.

Shen Yanqiu frowned, shook his head slightly, and after thinking hard for a while, slowly said, "I can't quite put my finger on what I've lost, but it's that strange feeling that lingers in my heart that makes me feel very confused and puzzled!"

"That proves I wasn't lying to you. See, you love me, right?"

Shen Yanqiu nodded.

"Isn't it right that I love you?"

Shen Yanqiu looked at her and slowly nodded.

"That's settled then! We're mutually in love! It's a match made in heaven! There's no question of deception!"

Shen Yanqiu thought it made sense and stopped dwelling on the topic.

Zhu Tingyue was already lying in bed waiting for him to come over.

Shen Yanqiu held the child in her arms tightly, and her hurried steps suddenly stopped as if she had been frozen in place.

Come here!

However, Shen Yanqiu seemed not to hear the urging and remained motionless in the same position.

He lowered his head, his gaze fixed on the peaceful little face of the child in his arms, as if everything in the outside world was irrelevant to him.

A breeze blew in through the window, gently lifting a few strands of hair from his forehead, but he was completely unaware, standing there quietly like a sculpture.

Zhu Tingyue didn't understand and patted the spot next to her: "Aren't you tired? Come on over here!"

Shen Yanqiu seemed to be frozen in place, remaining completely still.

Zhu Tingyue threw back the covers, took her long legs off the bed, took the baby from Shen Yanqiu's arms, kissed him twice, and then took him out to the nanny.

When I returned, I closed and locked the door behind me.

The sound of "snap" sent a shiver down Shen Yanqiu's spine.

Zhu Tingyue hugged him from behind: "What's wrong? You've been acting strange lately."

Shen Yanqiu opened her mouth, but couldn't form a coherent sentence: "No...where is it?"

Zhu Tingyue rested her head on Shen Yanqiu's head, inhaling the fragrance of his hair, and said decisively, "No, it just feels weird! You just came back from the hospital and wouldn't let me come up here to sleep. You even got angry when I sneaked up here!"

"I held you while we slept, and you resisted? You dawdled for ages in the shower, and I even changed your pajamas, wrapping you up completely!"

Shen Yanqiu replied, "I'm still in my postpartum period. I did that to avoid catching a cold. My mother told me that. If you don't believe me, go ask the postpartum nanny!"

Zhu Tingyue didn't believe it: "You're dressed so warmly because you're afraid of catching a cold, and you're avoiding me because you're afraid of catching a cold? What's wrong with me? Am I a natural air conditioner that can freeze the people around me to death at any moment?"

Shen Yanqiu's lips moved, but she couldn't come up with a reasonable explanation.

Zhu Tingyue said gently, "Yanqiu, are you afraid I'll dislike your figure?"

Shen Yanqiu remained silent, implicitly acknowledging this.

Zhu Tingyue turned him around and said seriously, "If I were to give birth to your child, would you be disgusted by my out-of-shape figure?"

Shen Yanqiu shook her head firmly: "No!"

"Look, you don't dislike me, so why would I dislike you?"

"That's different!"

"What's different? I don't love you anymore? I have other thoughts about you?"

Shen Yanqiu opened her dark eyes, which were moist with tears: "I'm not pretty anymore!"

He still remembered what Zhu Mingchuan had said before: It's true that Zhu Tingyue loves him, but as her beauty fades, her love will diminish, and Zhu Tingyue's love for him will become less and less!
