Chapter 1263: Chapter 1262: Sleeping in Separate Rooms Chapter 1263: Chapter 1262: Sleeping in Separate Rooms By the time Zhou Shengting entered the room, Bai Lan had just come back to her senses, but her hand still rested on her stomach.
Suddenly, she felt the embarrassment of being caught red-handed.
Fortunately, Zhou Shengting's gaze merely swept briefly over her, seemingly not paying much attention to her hand on her stomach.
Zhou Shengting took off his suit jacket, loosened his tie, and walked toward the couch in his white shirt, exuding a masculine presence.
He sat down next to Bai Lan, his long legs crossed, and when he picked up the documents from the coffee table, Zhou Shengting began in his usual calm tone, “How was it? Was baby well-behaved today?”
“Yes, very well-behaved. I had my prenatal checkup today; the results were all good,” Bai Lan said with a smile.
“Why didn't you tell me, so I could accompany you?” Sure enough, Zhou Shengting had an opinion, she just knew it.
Seeing his furrowed brows, she knew he was really displeased at the moment.
Bai Lan suddenly reached out and smoothed his furrowed brows, “Don't frown anymore, you look like an old man.”
Bai Lan jokingly teased him.
Zhou Shengting reacted by catching her hand that caressed his brows and kissed it lightly.
Her hand was soft and delicate, irresistible to hold.
“What? Do you despise me?” Zhou Shengting's voice was somewhat hoarse.
Having been with him for so long, Bai Lan knew what this reaction meant.
She really couldn't afford to play with fire now, and being pregnant, it was indeed inappropriate to engage in certain activities.
Suddenly, she thought of a problem, “Sheng Ting, now that I'm pregnant, and you are busy with work, needing good rest, perhaps we should sleep in separate rooms for the time being?”
Zhou Shengting's deep gaze fell on her, and Bai Lan immediately explained, “This… because my sleeping position isn't very good, as you know, I'm afraid it might affect you.”
In reality, what came to mind was the hidden meaning behind these words, causing her face to slightly redden.
She remembered what the doctor said at today's prenatal checkup, that it is early in the pregnancy and the baby isn't stable yet, so they should abstain from sex.
She knew Zhou Shengting had been having a tough time lately restraining himself.
So, tonight, after much thought, she made this suggestion.
But she was also not wrong about her sleeping habits not being so great.
She recalled one night when she woke up in the middle of the night to find her foot on his waist, and immediately retracted her foot and turned away, but he was a light sleeper, and the slightest motion would wake him.
Especially now that she was pregnant; there were always some minor problems, so she thought it might be better to sleep separately.
“Nonsense, no married couple sleeps separately, and I don't think it will affect me. Don't worry, your sleeping position isn't terrible. Moreover, you're pregnant; what if something happens when I'm not by your side? What then?”
Zhou Shengting said seriously.
In his heart, he scolded the idea, wondering how his wife could have such a ludicrous notion.
He wouldn't agree to it.
“But…” Bai Lan wanted to continue, but seeing a hint of fatigue on his face and him casually picking up a document,
she didn't continue the topic, although this outcome was within her expectations.
She got up, walked to the kitchen, and poured him a glass of warm water, also taking out some fruit.
Zhou Shengting saw this and smiled contentedly.
“If you're not sleepy, come sit next to me, keep me company. I have an urgent matter to review, then I'll go rest with you,” Zhou Shengting said, pulling her hand.
“Okay,” Bai Lan nodded.
