Chapter 475 - It Hurts
Chapter 475 - It Hurts
After playing around in the hot spring resort for a few days, the couple returned to Capital City and Huo Yun Chen began to busy himself with the preparation of his next album.
Xia Yu was among the first person who get to listen to his songs.
She liked the type of music that he had debuted with. But later, she continued to stay as his fan while watching him grow and explore various types of music.
As she listened to this new album, Xia Yu could sense that this album was different than his previous one. But after listening to a few songs, Xia Yu could not help but blush.
Some of the songs in this album... really made her shy.
Once she had finished listening to the songs, someone had pestered her and ask what she think of the new album. When she told him that she liked the songs, Huo Yun Chen could not stop smiling. Later, she was teased until she cried on the bed.
With less than a month left before she was going to depart to F Country, Xia Yu was not that idle. She had taken a few tests and was relieved to see that she has passed the language test.
Although there was still much for her to learn, at least she could tackle the basic communications while she was abroad.
That afternoon, Xia Yu went to Lu's residence to visit Song Xing Xing.
When she arrived, Song Xing Xing was in the middle of unboxing a few parcels.
Not too long ago, Lu Xun's parents had sent over some baby stuff for their grandchildren. Some of the stuff in Country C was cheaper and the excited grandparents decided to deliver some necessities before the baby was born.
At the side, Mr. Fluffball was watching as Song Xing Xing took out a few baby items. He stretched out his paw and was attracted to the colorful toys.
However, his attention soon shifted somewhere else. Mr. Fluffball saw the empty box and started to play with it. He jumped inside and found that it was comfortable and more fun than his cat's apartment. His papa brought him an expensive sleeping bed but this cat found that this box was more comfortable...
"Xia Yu, you're here." Song Xing Xing heard from Auntie Wei that Xia Yu came to visit and stood up slowly to greet her friend. The smile on her face widened upon finding someone to talk to.
Xia Yu handed over the snack that she brought on her way to Auntie Wei. Her gaze fell on Song Xing Xing's bulging stomach. It seemed that after not meeting her for a few weeks, Song Xing Xing's stomach continued to grow.
"It's getting bigger isn't it?" Song Xing Xing rubbed at her stomach with one hand and supported her waist with another. "I thought that my stomach is going to explode anytime soon."
"How are you feeling these days?"
"Fine. The doctor said the babies are very healthy."
"It won't be long before your due date."
"Mhm..." Song Xing Xing motioned Xia Yu to sit down. "Last month, they were still kicking around as if they were playing football inside. Fortunately, the babies were very obedient recently."
The last time the babies were kicking around, their father had warned them to stop causing trouble. Since then, the babies were very obedient, especially when Lu Xun was around.
Song Xing Xing had a feeling that once the babies come out, they were going to listen to their father. Just like this, Song Xing Xing had already prepared to let Lu Xun be the one to discipline their kids when they came out. If the babies would not listen to her, then she would let Lu Xun handle them.
Xia Yu laughed. "It's good that they are lively."
Song Xing Xing was a few years younger than she was but Xia Yu thought that Song Xing Xing was definitely mature than she was. Xia Yu was still in disbelief that in a few weeks, the babies were going to come out and made the house livelier.
She did not know whether she would be able to meet the babies before she departed to F Country. Song Xing Xing and President Lu were both good-looking couples. Xia Yu had a feeling that their children would inherit their good looks.
"That's right, Xia Yu, you are going to leave for Country F in a few weeks. Have you made all your preparation?"
"Mmm..." Xia Yu nodded. Her expression turned gentler. "I still want to thank you for your assistance. Xing Xing, you have been a great help."
"I didn't do anything much. In the end, everything is what you have decided on." Song Xing Xing smiled. When she thought of the day Xia Yu was going to leave Huo Yun Chen and Capital City, Song Xing Xing could not stop worrying.
Fortunately, Huo Yun Chen had arrived in time to stop Xia Yu from leaving.
"I heard that Huo Yun Chen will send you to F Country?"
Xia Yu lowered her head shyly. "En. He won't feel at ease until he sees the apartment and its surroundings."
"This is also good. Then, the two of you can take time to get used to the place," Song Xing Xing commented. "Ooh!" Song Xing Xing frowned as she caressed her stomach.
"What's wrong?" Seeing that Song Xing Xing's expression did not seem right, Xia Yu began to worry.
However, a few seconds later, the frown quickly disappeared. "It's nothing." Song Xing Xing heaved a long sigh. "I guess the babies were playing around again."
Seeing her expression, Xia Yu began to feel more at ease.
The two of them continued to chat about F Country.
At this time, Auntie Wei came out of the kitchen to remind Song Xing Xing that the food was ready.
"Xia Yu, come and join me for lunch, alright?" Song Xing Xing said. Before Xia Yu could reject her offer, Song Xing Xing had continued, "It would be too lonely to eat alone. Besides, Auntie Wei had already prepared your portion."
Xia Yu considered her offer and nodded. After sending a text to Huo Yun Chen, Xia Yu followed Song Xing Xing to the dining area.
It was not the first time for Xia Yu to visit the house and she had become quite familiar with Auntie Wei. Xia Yu went into the kitchen and helped Auntie Wei to carry a few dishes out.
The two friends sat down to have their meal while discussing the baby matters. Xia Yu was clipping some dishes when she noticed that Song Xing Xing's expression did not seem right.
"Oh." Song Xing Xing put down her chopsticks and held her tummy. Beads of perspiration appeared on her face.
"Xing Xing? What's wrong?"
Song Xing Xing pursed her lips tightly as she tried to suppress the incoming pain.. Then, she looked up and whimpered, "Xia Yu, it hurts."
