My Evil Genius Wife

However, seeing that she was ignoring his calls, he knew that it was not going to be an easy dinner night with the family.

It was obvious, she was upset with him.

Last time, it took him a while to appease upset Xu Nuan, who was crying vulnerably because he was late and failed to pick her up from the cafe and Han Liang and Luo Dan had to give her a ride back home.

All because of Feng Sheng. These days he has turned into a villain in his life. The bitchy villain who cannot see him happy and at peace.

The pregnancy hormones are playing with Xu Nuan’s mood swings, making her cry at one moment and laugh at the other. Yet him getting late frequently was giving her another reason to cry about.

She usually never cries at such small matters but these days she has gotten quite sensitive, to the point that she seems to be frustrated by her mood swings as well.

.....

The next few months are not going to be easy for both of them. However, the least he could do is to pamper her and take care of her during this crucial moment since she is carrying their baby in her womb and has been going through all sorts of hardships, mentally and physically as well.

Since he cannot experience the pain and emotions she is going through right now, he needs to be more understanding and take care of her from the side. She is going to give birth to their first child after all.

It still feels unfamiliar that he is going to make a family with her but he cannot be happier and luckier than this. All of his wishes are finally coming true.

Han Zihao stopped the car in front of the Han Mansion and handed the keys to the guard for him to park. He stood outside the Han Mansion and took a deep breath to calm down his racing heart.

He looked at the time on his wristwatch and realized that it was half past eight already. He is late for dinner, once again.

“FENG SHENG, I WILL NOT LEAVE YOU TOMORROW.” He gritted his teeth and wanted to teach a lesson to Feng Sheng for playing with him again.

” Why are you so late? Xu Nuan arrived long ago and was waiting for you.” Grandmother Han scolded him as soon as Han Zihao entered the living room.

Han Zihao smiled awkwardly and didn’t know what to say. He cleared his throat and asked, ” By the way, why are you here alone? Where is everyone? Where is Xu Nuan?” he asked while looking around for her.

In the living room, only Grandmother Han was waiting for him, and other than her, no one else was there.

Grandmother Han saw him looking around curiously and asked, ” Are you sure you’re curious about everyone and not Xu Nuan only?”

She chuckled to see his smirk and teased him by slapping his arm. “Sneaky Boy.”

” Everyone is in the dining room. Since you were running late, I asked Cheng Zixing to arrange the dishes on the dining table.”

” We cannot let everyone wait for dinner just because you were late. More than that, Xu Nuna needs to eat on time. She shouldn’t eat dinner late in this condition. It’s not good for both her and the baby.”

Han Zihao glanced at her when she addressed Xu Nuan as ‘her and the baby’. It still feels unfamiliar that Xu Nuan is going to bring a small life into this world.

Everything feels surreal.

” You did the right thing. She needs to eat on time. By the way, what is this surprise family dinner for? If you had given me a heads up yesterday, I wouldn’t have been late.” He complained.

Only if his Grandma had informed him about the dinner yesterday, he would have arranged his schedule and wouldn’t be late today.

Grandmother Han stood up from the couch and started to walk toward the dining room, meanwhile, Han Zihao followed her while waiting for her response. ” If I had informed you about this dinner yesterday, you wouldn’t have come. That’s why I called Xu Nuan, rather than calling you. Because she listens to me more than my own Grandson.” She scoffed as she kept walking ahead of him.

Han Zihao chuckled at his Grandmother’s sarcastic comment and said, ” Yeah. Yeah. I can see that you like Xu Nuan more than me. Sometimes I feel that you’re her Grandmother more than mine.”

Grandmother Han turned to him and winked at him and smiled pleasingly at his comment, ” Well, that’s because I like her more than you. I always wanted a daughter but got two sons instead. Same in the case of grandchildren as well. There is no daughter in the family.”

” Of course, I am happier to have Xu Nuan as my granddaughter-in-law. She has a cool mindset, just like me. I will be even happier if she gives birth to a daughter. Ah....I cannot wait for that day.” Grandmother Han sighed in anticipation.

The corner of Han Zihao’s lips curled up upon listening to his Grandmother’s words and it made him smile as well. A daughter?

If Xu Nuan gives birth to a daughter, he will do his best to protect her and become the best father in the world.

While he was lost in his imagination, Grandmother Han continued, ” On that note, I was thinking that it’s high time to make Xu Nuan, a part of our family. Both of you are already living together and are even going to have a baby soon as well.”

” For how long, both of you are going to keep your relationship as girlfriend and boyfriend only? Both of you are soon going to be parents now. Shouldn’t you be more serious and responsible about your relationship with Xu Nuan?” Grandmother Han halted in her steps and turned around to face Han Zihao.

She told him earlier to think about their future seriously from now since they’re going to be parents soon. However, there was no news from him nor did they seem to be thinking about it seriously as well.

Xu Nuan has already passed the stage of the early trimester of her pregnancy and soon her baby bump will start to show as well. Shouldn’t they start to plan for their future already?

Han Zihao was caught off guard by her sudden question. He wasn’t expecting her to bring this matter here. ” It’s not like that. I am seriously thinking about it.”

” However, Xu Nuan has recently started her company and is still in college. We’re trying to take things slowly and are considering every possibility before starting the new journey.” He said.

Although the real age of Jiang Yue is 25 years old, Xu Nuan is still young and has many things going on around her. That’s why he wanted to give her some time to think about things and then decide about their future and marriage.

Grandmother Han sighed as she was expecting this kind of response from him. Han Zihao is great at everything but he is way slow when it comes to making decisions about relationships. His EQ is less than his IQ and this is where the problem begins.

Sometimes, she doubts that if not for Xu Nuan, he would have remained single forever. How come her bloodline can be so cowardly and slow when it comes to their relationships? HOWW?

She is sharp and swift at making decisions and here her grandsons are as slow as turtles in the race of their love lives.

” Well, I knew that you were going to say this. That’s why I arranged this family dinner. Since you guys cannot come to a decision, it’s time for elders to interfere. From now on, both of you are free from worries. Because we will deal with everything.” She announced.

Han Zihao frowned when he heard her say such words. Something was not right. “What...do you mean by this?”

At this moment, he realized that it was not just a family dinner but something more than that. However, before he could ask what she meant by this, Grandmother Han smiled at him and said, ” Don’t think about it much. Go inside. Everyone is waiting for you at the dinner table.”

Han Zihao frowned and glanced towards the dining room behind his Grandmother. However, before he could ask her about it again, his eyes widened in surprise when he heard a few familiar voices coming from the dining room.

” Don’t tell me....Did you invite the Gu family over for dinner?”
