The instant Cheng Xuezhen realized he was pregnant, the world spun around him.
He now had to face the following facts:
1. The child belonged to his ex-husband’s younger brother.
2. The child belonged to his client, his boss.
3. Most outrageous of all, both he and the child’s father were men.
Well, all three facts pointed to the same person: Pei Lin.
It wasn’t that Cheng Xuezhen had never considered not having the child.
But the problem was, he was a perfumer.
How was a perfumer who felt like throwing up halfway through smelling a fragrance supposed to work?
So he decided to quietly go to the hospital and take care of this unexpected pregnancy.
However, Pei Lin found out anyway.
Pei Lin wanted him to seriously consider keeping the baby.
In the end, they agreed on three rules:
1. The pregnancy could not interfere with Cheng Xuezhen’s work. If any problems came up, Pei Lin would find a solution.
2. They would raise the child together.
3. No dating, no marriage, and no interfering in each other’s private lives.
Cheng Xuezhen was very satisfied with this arrangement, and Pei Lin agreed readily.
There didn’t seem to be any problem.
Going with him to prenatal appointments was for the baby.
Taking care of him when he was sick was for the baby.
Driving him to and from work was still for the baby.
But what about kissing him, hugging him, and getting jealous...?
Cheng Xuezhen: “Is that for the baby, too?”
Pei Lin: “...”
Later, a childhood friend who had grown up with Pei Lin in Britain suddenly appeared at his side.
Cheng Xuezhen: “...You two are close?”
Pei Lin: “Didn’t you say we shouldn’t interfere in each other’s private lives?”
“.”
Who was the one who came up with that rule in the first place?
Pei Lin realized that their relationship was going around in circles, never moving forward.
He could wait for Cheng Xuezhen, but the person waiting could get tired, too.
So one night, he brought Cheng Xuezhen home and locked the door behind them.
Cheng Xuezhen: “Pei Lin, what are you doing?”
Pei Lin didn’t answer.
He lowered his head and kissed him outright.
Cheng Xuezhen couldn’t break free and angrily cursed at him. “Are you crazy?”
Pei Lin looked at him. “Yeah.”
“So this time, I’m not waiting.”
