Chapter 573: Working to Earn Money for Formula

"Just because you don't lack anything doesn't mean I shouldn't give you things. You're going to marry me and have my children, after all. I'm really grateful to you—I'm lucky that the mother of my children is you." Jiang Muye laid his innermost feelings bare.

He felt truly happy right now. If not for Leng Ruoli appearing in his life, he might still be struggling on the brink, half-dead.

Stumbling through relationships, he probably wouldn't even have a girlfriend, let alone be someone's father.

Jiang Muye had made up his mind: once he earned money, it was for his Darling to spend.

If his Darling didn't spend it, he wouldn't allow it.

"Tomorrow we're going to look at properties. I want to buy a place for you. If you don't accept it, I'll fight with you and ignore you!" Jiang Muye said to Leng Ruoli seriously.

Leng Ruoli looked at Jiang Muye's insistent expression and burst out laughing. "Fine, I'll go along with you. Buy me one."

In her heart, she was secretly plotting a small plan of her own.

Jiang Muye chuckled. "Do you remember when I said yesterday that I had a gift for you?"

"I remember." Leng Ruoli nodded.

"Wait here, I'll get it for you." Jiang Muye went to fetch the gift, full of enthusiasm.

When Leng Ruoli saw it was a jewelry box, she opened it full of anticipation—and was immediately dazzled by the sparkle of the diamond.

"It's so pretty!" Leng Ruoli was delighted.

"I bought this specially from an overseas auction house. There's only one in the world, and it's for you." Jiang Muye's eyes were gentle. "Just like you're one of a kind."

A smile filled Leng Ruoli's face. She reached out to take the necklace, about to put it around her neck, when Jiang Muye took it from her and personally fastened it for her.

Leng Ruoli's skin was fair and her neck slender. Just as Jiang Muye had imagined, it looked absolutely stunning on her.

"Beautiful." Jiang Muye could not help but plant a kiss on Leng Ruoli's neck. "It's like it was tailor-made for you."

Feeling Jiang Muye's lips on her neck, Leng Ruoli's little face suddenly flushed red. Afraid that things might go too far—and with the servants secretly watching from downstairs—she gently pushed Jiang Muye. "Stop."

Jiang Muye instantly snapped back to his senses.

Looking at the blushing, utterly delectable Jiang Muye before him, he could not help but give her a long, deep squeeze.

"Baby, I'm not doing anything, just kissing you."

Leng Ruoli's ears went completely red. "I… I know, but can't we go upstairs to kiss?"

Seeing Leng Ruoli's shy appearance, Jiang Muye could not help but tease her. "We can't even kiss at home—are we supposed to kiss outside, then? Outside you'd probably be even more embarrassed."

Hearing Jiang Muye's magnetic, teasing words, Leng Ruoli was so embarrassed she covered her face with both hands. "Close the door and kiss."

"Hahaha, that works too, but I'm afraid that once I start kissing, I won't be able to control myself." Jiang Muye deliberately teased her.

Leng Ruoli bit her lower lip in embarrassment. "Didn't you say you could hold back?"

"I can hold back, but who told you to be so tempting?" Jiang Muye lifted Leng Ruoli's delicate little face, taking in her shy expression clearly.

She really was beautiful—refined features, golden hair, as pretty as a Barbie doll. Even her figure was truly exquisite, just looking at her made one's mouth water.

Jiang Muye could not help but lean in and kiss Leng Ruoli's lips.

See, even her mouth was sweet.

Leng Ruoli's little face was flushed pink, and she could not help but let out a low giggle.

Jiang Muye grew even more excited, giving Leng Ruoli a squeeze. "What do you want to do in a bit? I'll keep you company."

"I want to do flower arranging. Do you want to too?"

"Flower arranging…" In Jiang Muye's impression, that was something girls liked to do. For a guy to do flower art was a bit awkward.

Seeing Jiang Muye's slight reluctance, Leng Ruoli didn't press him. "It's fine, I can do it myself."

But Jiang Muye immediately denied it. "Who says I won't keep you company? It's just flower arranging."

Anyway, doing anything with his girlfriend made him happy.

Leng Ruoli moved to take off the necklace, and Jiang Muye grew nervous. "What's wrong? Don't you like it a lot?"

"I do like it, but it's too heavy." Leng Ruoli muttered. "And too high-profile—easy to draw hate."

Hearing her say it was heavy, Jiang Muye grew anxious. "Sorry, I just wanted to buy you the best and didn't think about practicality. Take it off quickly."

After Jiang Muye took the necklace off for Leng Ruoli, she gave a faint smile. "Heh, I'll treasure it carefully."

"Then next time I'll take you to buy an elegant, simple style." Jiang Muye suggested.

"You've already given me so much, no need." Leng Ruoli shook her head.

"You're too easily satisfied. When it comes to my Darling, gifts have to keep flowing." Jiang Muye tapped Leng Ruoli's nose, full of doting.

A blissful expression filled Leng Ruoli's face.

Faced with Jiang Muye's pampering, her mood was full and exuberant.

Afterward, Jiang Muye accompanied Leng Ruoli in flower arranging.

The vase and flowers were all prepared.

Jiang Muye lowered his head to take a sniff. "Isn't it too strong?"

"No, the scent is fine." A faint curve tugged at the corner of Leng Ruoli's lips. "I'm not that fragile or sensitive."

As soon as the words left her mouth, she suddenly felt a wave of nausea. "Urgh!"

She instinctively covered her mouth and ran toward the bathroom.

Jiang Muye was alarmed and hurried after her.

He saw Leng Ruoli hugging the toilet, throwing up violently.

But all she threw up was stomach fluid, and that awful nauseous feeling still lingered in her body.

"Feeling any better?" Jiang Muye gathered Leng Ruoli's long hair and held it over her shoulder to keep it from getting dirty.

He handed her a tissue to wipe the corner of her mouth.

Feeling Jiang Muye's gentle gestures, Leng Ruoli's eyes softened, and she smiled at him. "It's fine, a normal reaction."

"Pregnant women really have it rough, with the morning sickness and all. Ugh, I heard my mom was in labor with me for sixteen hours and screamed so loud the whole corridor could hear!" Jiang Muye said with feeling.

Leng Ruoli's little face went pale, and she said with some fear, "Don't say that, I'm scared!"

She grabbed Jiang Muye's sleeve and pleaded softly.

Only then did Jiang Muye realize how thick-skinned he'd been.

What was he saying in front of Leng Ruoli for? Wasn't that just making her more afraid?

The man only had to sow the seed, but the woman had to actually go on the operating table.

"I was wrong, baby." Jiang Muye stroked Leng Ruoli's hair, soothing her emotions. "The baby in your belly definitely won't torment you like that. If he dares to, I absolutely won't let him off easy!"

Leng Ruoli burst out laughing. "Are you going to give the baby a beating, then?"

"Of course! If the baby bullies the mom, he definitely gets a beating! As the father, it's only natural that I deal with him." Jiang Muye said smugly.

Leng Ruoli's little face was flushed pink. "Heh, would you be able to hit your daughter too?"
