maraschino cherries

The chapter on Lifetime Mark has been changed, I don’t know if I can read it, but I tried my best to write it very cryptically.

Xi Hezhou got busy again, and Sheng Lin was used to him going on business trips every three days. At this time, he would carry Cherry on the bed. He loves to sleep, and Cherry also loves to sleep. Holding Cherry is like hugging a small stove .

The capital ushered in the first snow, and the boss closed the store ahead of time when he was going home for the New Year, so Sheng Lin was free, occasionally going out shopping with Jiang Rou, Jiang Rou was always committed to buying various styles for Sheng Lin clothing.

Xi Hezhou was called by Qi Lian to go to another place near New Year's Eve, the place was remote, Xi Hezhou purposely blurred the place in order not to make Sheng Lin worry, but Sheng Lin saw through Xi Hezhou's intentions, he was not forgiving, and even planned to call Xi Hezhou directly.

"Can you come back on New Year's Eve?" Sheng Lin didn't want Xi Hezhou to go, but he didn't want Xi Hezhou to hide it from him.

"If there is no accident, we should be able to come back on the same day." Xi Hezhou teased the cherry in Sheng Lin's arms, and he also knew that Sheng Lin was not at ease, the place was far and remote, "It's okay, Qi Lian took the team there, it's safe."

Sheng Lin will not say anything more about Xi Hezhou's work, but just remind Xi Hezhou to pay attention to safety.

Sheng Lin used to celebrate the New Year alone, so he didn't make any preparations, but this year was different. Jiang Rou took him to buy New Year's goods, put up couplets and window grilles, and took him to the temple to ask for a lot of luck for the coming year.

"Lin Lin, there is something wrong with us, and it will be delayed for a few days."

The day before New Year's Eve, Xi Hezhou called and told Sheng Lin that he would be delayed for some reason and might not be back until tomorrow night.

Evening is also possible, at least in time for a reunion dinner, but on the night of New Year's Eve, Xi Hezhou lost contact.

"Lin Lin, come make dumplings." Jiang Rou called Sheng Lin to make dumplings.

Sheng Lin put down the phone and went to help Jiang Rou. The round dumplings appeared in Sheng Lin's hands, and they were arranged one by one. Sheng Lin glanced at the clock on the wall. It was almost eight o'clock. Xi Hezhou still didn't reply. It's time to eat.

"Qi Lian told me just now that they may not be able to make it back tonight, Lin Lin, let's eat." Xi Luyu patted Sheng Lin standing in front of the window.

Fireworks have already started to set off outside the window, just like what they saw at the beach that day.It was the first New Year, but Xi Hezhou didn't come back in time, he could understand, but he still felt a little uncomfortable.

He didn't eat much. After the meal, he said goodbye to Jiang Rou. He brought some dumplings back to ensure that Xi Hezhou could have a warm meal of dumplings when he came back.

He seems to have been in a fluctuating mood recently, and now he feels a little inexplicably lost. He didn't turn on the light or the heating, poured a cup of coffee, and curled up on the sofa under a blanket.

The hour hand has passed twelve o'clock, and it is a new year.

Xi Hezhou came back in the middle of the night, covered in snow, and the room was very cold. Xi Hezhou didn't know why Sheng Lin didn't turn on the heater. He turned on the light in the room, and saw Sheng Lin lying on the sofa with steaming coffee.

"Lin Lin, Happy New Year." Xi Hezhou kissed Sheng Lin's forehead.

"Brother..." Sheng Lin didn't sleep deeply, and he woke up when Xi Hezhou entered the door and turned on the light, "There are dumplings in the kitchen, go and eat some."

The coldness on Xi Hezhou told him that he probably hadn't eaten yet.

Xi Hezhou went to the kitchen to bring out the dumplings, Sheng Lin sat up and turned on the heater, and the warm dumplings entered his stomach, making Xi Hezhou much warmer.

"What's going on?" Sheng Lin sat opposite Xi Hezhou, although he was sleepy, he still wanted to ask why he missed the reunion dinner.

"There was an accident on the way, Qi Lian was injured and delayed."

Nothing serious, just a waste of time.

"What about you, aren't you hurt?"

No wonder Xi Hezhou's clothes were wrinkled, no wonder there were mud spots in some places.

"I'm in the rest area, I'm safe, don't worry." Xi Hezhou rubbed Sheng Lin's hair, "I'm sorry, I missed celebrating the New Year with you."

"It's fine as long as you're fine." Sheng Lin heaved a sigh of relief.

Xi Hezhou took a bite of the dumpling, which was his favorite stuffing, and there seemed to be something in it. Xi Hezhou bit into a coin.

Lucky coins, good luck for the coming year will be given to you.

Sheng Lin wrapped three coins in total, and he reserved one specially for Xi Hezhou.

"Is it delicious?" There was hope in his eyes, he did not bring the depression to Xi Hezhou just now, he has already returned, so there is nothing to be depressed about.

Xi Hezhou nodded, maybe he was really hungry, a bowl of dumplings was finished soon, when he looked up, Sheng Lin had already fallen asleep lying on the table.

……

The winter in the capital is very short, the weather is slowly getting warmer, the trees are starting to truncate, and green buds are dotted on the bare branches.

On a peaceful weekend, Xi Hezhou took Sheng Lin out of the quilt. Although the weather started to get warmer, it was still cold to Sheng Lin. He didn't want to get up, so Xi Hezhou could only help him get dressed.

"Why?" Sheng Lin lay on Xi Hezhou's shoulder like a koala.

"Go to the hospital." Xi Hezhou replied.

Of course he didn't forget to take Sheng Lin for a physical examination. He was just waiting for a doctor he knew to examine Sheng Lin. It took a while, because Yuetang only came back from abroad last week.

"I'm fine, I don't need to go to the hospital." Sheng Lin woke up immediately, and he himself felt that something was wrong recently, but he didn't think it was a big deal, he really didn't want to go to the hospital.

"No, Doctor Yue is already waiting."

Physically, it was impossible for Xi Hezhou to listen to Sheng Lin.

Yuetang took care of Sheng Lin for a long time when she was at the research base, and she knew Sheng Lin's physical condition better. After leaving the research base, she returned to work in the original hospital and returned from abroad last week.

Sheng Lin was forced to go to the hospital. After a series of examinations, Sheng Lin was dizzy, exactly the same as when he was dragged to the hospital by Xi Hezhou when he first got married.

"There is nothing wrong with the test results." Yuetang looked at Sheng Lin's inspection report, everything was normal, even a few pounds heavier than before at the base, "Is there something wrong with your body?"

"nothing……"

Sheng Lin's words were interrupted by Xi Hezhou.

"Drowsiness, low spirits, and sometimes I can't eat." Xi Hezhou interrupted Sheng Lin, "I will retch."

Since the lifelong mark, these symptoms have come and gone. Sheng Lin deliberately hid them, fearing that Xi Hezhou would think it was his problem, so he didn't want Xi Hezhou to know, but it seems that he didn't hide it at all.

"Drowsiness..." Yuetang thought for a while, then raised her eyes to look at the two in front of her, "Let's get a B-ultrasound, come and lie down."

Sheng Lin was taken aback, then glanced at Xi Hezhou, Xi Hezhou patted him on the shoulder reassuringly, he was inexplicably nervous.

The cold liquid touched Sheng Lin's skin, and Sheng Lin shook, feeling the instrument swimming in his lower abdomen. The screen was black and white, and Xi Hezhou couldn't understand it.

"When is the lifetime mark?"

"About a month ago."

Yuetang nodded and put away the instrument.

"Specifically, I'll go get a blood test later. For now..." Yuetang said calmly, "I should be pregnant."

"Pregnant!"

Xi Hezhou and Sheng Lin were taken aback at the same time, and looked at each other, seeing disbelief in each other's eyes.

"Yes, I was already two weeks pregnant at the time of the lifetime mark. The sudden injection of a large amount of pheromone will indeed cause a very strong reaction. Drowsiness and nausea are all normal phenomena of pregnancy."

Yuetang collected the instrument and asked Sheng Lin to wipe it clean, and asked Xi Hezhou to take him for a blood test.

This spring, it seemed like a gift for him.
