Unpredictable Marriage.

"No, stay with me." Chen Lihua said childish tone.

Liu Longwei sighed as held her shoulder and said, "Alright, let's go in, I will stay with you."

Thinking that he was serious because of his facial expression, she said to him.

"No...no don't, I'm fine. You can go for your trip, I'll be waiting for you." Chen Lihua said to him.

"You're sure?." Liu Longwei asked.

Even I don't know what is going on in his mind at this moment ?

"Yes. Seriously, don't leave that important trip for me. The baby and I would be waiting for your return. Then together, we would welcome the baby." Chen Lihua said.

Just then, Lady Chen, Madam Liu, and Liu Huiling arrived at the rooftop.

Chen Lihua stood by the side as she was supported by Lady Chen and Liu Huiling while Liu Longwei went to meet his mother.

"Longwei, have a safe trip. But remember that your wife is heavily pregnant and she might put to bed before the delivery date. This is your first child together, you should be around. But if things don't turn out so well, don't push yourself, because we will be here to take care of Lihua." Madam Liu said to him in a kind reminder.

"Mum, I will try my best to be here before she gives birth." Liu Longwei replied in a low tone.

"Good." Madam Liu said as a smile turned up on her lips while patting his hands.

Liu Longwei said goodbye to them and walked straight to his wife to hug her.

While still in an embrace, Liu Longwei kissed her lips, and then her forehead before letting go.

He caressed her baby bump and spoke to the baby, "Son, I'll be right back, just hold on for a while.

Then he turned to look at Chen Lihua. "Sweetheart takes care of yourself, your husband will back soon."

He said this while patting her head.

As he made a move to go into the helicopter whose engine just started running, Chen Lihua held his arm back.

They gazed at each other for three seconds before Chen Lihua spoke up.

"I hope that everything will go on we'll at your side and that you will the bids and the contracts. The projects too will be going on fine. I'll be praying for you."

A smile turned up on Liu Longwei's face as he replied, "I will pray for you and the baby as well."

After saying this part, he turned around and left.

Chen Lihua and the rest of the family watched him enter the helicopter ? and leave in it.

Chen Lihua's heart was going through different turmoil now, that she didn't even know she was crying.

"Lihua dear, don't cry, Longwei would be back before you know it." Madam Liu consoled her.

'Crying?.' Chen Lihua asked herself as she brought two fingers to her cheeks.

She saw real tears in her fingers, and she rubbed them together.

"Lihua doesn't worry, Brother would be back soon. Although it's partly my fault that he has been so busy these days and didn't have time to spend with you. He has been working for two, for himself and me since he allowed me to take a long break." Liu Huiling explained.

"No sister Ling, I will never blame you for this." Chen Lihua said to her.

"If you don't blame me, then come one, let's go and have breakfast." Liu Huiling said as she gently grabbed her hand and walked away from the rooftop and their mothers followed after them.

Because of the joyful mood they put her in during breakfast, Chen Lihua didn't feel weary anymore.

After breakfast, she took a walk with her mother.

"Lady Chen, how is the company doing? You know you can go to work in the morning and come back to stay with me in the evening." Chen Lihua reminded her.

Lady Chen chuckled softly as she replied, "It's been a while since you addressed me as Lady Chen, but I'm fine with whatsoever you all me. The company is doing great now your father and I and are working together. About going to the office, I chose not to go today because Longwei would be leaving today." 

A grateful smile turned up on Chen Lihua's lips as she said, "Thank you, Mum. Mum, you need to teach me somethings, majorly about what happens during labor."

"I thought you must have been thought that during one of your antenatal classes?." Lady Chen asked as she wondered in surprise.

"Everyone's experiences are always different from each other, so I want to hear and learn from the different experiences. Sister Huiling and mother can also join in the discussion, it will be so much fun listening to your different experiences during labor." Chen Lihua said excitedly.

"Alright...alright, I can see how excited you are already." Lady Chen said in agreement as a smile bloomed on her face.

After taking a walk, Chen Lihua notified her mother-in-law and Liu Huiling of her plans before the discussion class started.

The four women talked for more than three hours because the topic they discussing was quite an interesting and complex one, so they didn't know when time went by.

"First labor is always the longest and the most painful because that's your first child we are talking about. It's the first time something that sizeable is coming out from there, so you don't expect it to be easy." Lady Chen said.

"But sometimes in few cases, some women do not experience long or painful labor the first time." Madam Liu said to encourage.

"Wow! I guess it's not easy to have a child then. That means getting into labor and childbirth is not easy. I never knew it wasn't that easy." Chen Lihua said in devastation.

"Don't worry, everything will be fine, we are just sharing some experiences with you. My first labor wasn't long though, but I acted funny because of the contractions. I almost pulled my clothes because I wasn't myself." Liu Huiling said as she chuckled softly.

Chen Lihua glanced at Liu Huiling and then at her two mothers before laughing hard.

So she said while laughing as she pointed her finger at Liu Huiling.

"Sister Ling you? You almost pulled your clothes off?."

Chen Lihua was indeed shocked by this revelation because she has always seen Liu Huiling be the classy type and one who thought things through before acting.

But what was this she was hearing? She almost went naked during labor?

'For Sister Ling to have wanted to off her clothes, then this labor wasn't a simple one.' Chen Lihua concluded in her mind.
