Chapter 492: Give You Ten Million, Let Me Take a Look

Sheng Hanyu pressed his face against Shi Youxuan's belly and said softly to his son, "Erbao, turn around and let Dad take a look."

The fetus did not move, as if it were asleep.

"Be a good boy, turn around!" This guy actually gave Shi Youxuan's belly a pat.

Shi Youxuan was having none of it: "Who are you hitting?"

"Smack!"

She returned the slap, landing it on Sheng Hanyu's face.

Having been "slapped in the face," Sheng Hanyu dared not get angry.

He smiled and argued defensively: "I didn't hit him, and I certainly wouldn't dare hit you; I just wanted to say hello to my son."

Shi Youxuan:...

This way of saying hello was truly unique.

"Alright, stop saying hello. Hurry up and coax your son, otherwise I won't let you see him, and you'll be anxious to death," Shi Youxuan said haughtily.

Erbao was very cooperative.

He knew his mother had suffered grievances while pregnant, and now he was standing up for her!

Sheng Hanyu also wanted to coax him, which in theory meant saying nice things.

But not everyone knows how to say sweet nothings, for instance, the man before her—Sheng Hanyu didn't know how.

"Son, turn around and let Dad take a look, and I'll give you ten million."

Shi Youxuan:...

For the first time, she felt that it was actually quite good that Sheng Hanyu hadn't been home during prenatal education.

"Hey! Is the little thing complaining that the money is too little? The price is negotiable, just turn around and let me take a look..."

Shi Youxuan could bear it no longer: "Get out!"

Sheng Hanyu misunderstood and took the opportunity to say to his son: "Look, Mom is angry now, hurry up and turn around!"

Shi Youxuan:...

She was about to sit up, and Sheng Hanyu mistakenly thought her waist hurt from lying down for too long.

He carefully helped her sit up slowly, his face full of nervousness: "What's wrong? Is your waist hurting again? Take it slow, I'll rub it for you."

Shi Youxuan had originally intended to get angry, but seeing him so worried about her, half of her anger immediately vanished.

Shi Youxuan said to Sheng Hanyu: "You can't talk to your son like that. He is your son, not a business partner; how can you talk about money?"

Sheng Hanyu realized his oversight and smiled quite embarrassedly.

He prepared to humbly ask Shi Youxuan for advice on what to say to make his son turn around and look at him, or at least let him take a look!

He really wanted to see him that much.

He suddenly opened his mouth wide, his eyes staring as round as his mouth, fixed tightly on the screen, unwilling to even blink.

His son had turned around and was playing comfortably inside his mother's belly; his appearance was a miniature version of Sheng Hanyu, exactly the same.

"Xuanxuan, look quickly, my son, my son!" Sheng Hanyu was very excited, so excited that he was a bit incoherent.

Shi Youxuan was speechless.

She was grateful that modern medical equipment was so advanced that interaction could be achieved even before the child was born.

Shi Youxuan rarely saw Sheng Hanyu get so emotional; this counted as one time.

From leaving the examination room to the car, and all the way home, Sheng Hanyu's mouth never closed.

He was also unusually talkative, saying more on the way home than he usually did in a week, and eight out of ten sentences were about his son.

Shi Youxuan felt that once this child was born, he would definitely be spoiled to the heavens!

She had seen how Sheng Hanyu spoiled his daughter, and judging by the current momentum, he would likely spoil his son even more once he was born.

They say that to spoil a child is to ruin him.

Shi Youxuan began to worry now, worrying that Sheng Hanyu would spoil Xiao Erbao until he was lawless.

So, she took precautions and began to lay the groundwork.

"I'm telling you, after Xiao Erbao is born, you must teach him to be an upright man. You cannot spoil the child unconditionally, understand?"

Sheng Hanyu agreed readily: "I know, I know. The child we two have won't be bad. Just look at Shi Ran and you'll know; she doesn't have a single flaw."

Shi Youxuan:...

Shi Ran had many merits, but she also had a pile of flaws; how could she not have a single flaw?

No, this matter must be straightened out before Xiao Erbao is born, otherwise it would be trouble later.

Just as she was about to refute, her mother-in-law suddenly spoke with a smile: "Have you two picked out a name for the child?"

Right, such an important matter had actually been forgotten; Xiao Erbao didn't have a name yet!

During the early stages of pregnancy, Sheng Hanyu had gone missing.

No one had the heart to name the child. Later, when Shi Youxuan went to find Sheng Hanyu, although he was found, he didn't even recognize his wife, let alone have the mood to name his son.

The timing of the mother-in-law's suggestion was just right; she brought up the right thing at the right time and even helped her son out of a tight spot.

Thus, the topic shifted to Xiao Erbao's name; they didn't settle it on the road, so they continued when they got home.

Sheng Hanyu racked his brains.

"Sheng Xia."

Shi Youxuan shook her head.

That sounded like a girl's name; it wasn't masculine and didn't suit a boy.

"Sheng Yang."

Shi Youxuan:...

Heh.

Because she thought the name Sheng Xia wasn't masculine enough, so he just called him "Yang"?

Although Sheng Hanyu is overflowing with talent, his ability to come up with names is truly not great.

Having had two rejected in a row, he was not discouraged and thought of over a dozen more in one breath.

Sheng Lantian.

Sheng Qingshan.

Sheng Yanshi.

Sheng Junfeng.

Sheng Qihu.

Sheng Manyue.

All the names were very eco-friendly; if it weren't for the fact that "Jiang" and "Hai" were taboo among the elders, Shi Youxuan wouldn't doubt for a second that he would have set his sights on those as well.

Shi Youxuan's expression grew increasingly unpleasant, and he finally noticed something was wrong: "They don't sound good?"

"What do you think? Do they sound good?" she retorted.

He nodded very seriously: "They sound good."

Shi Youxuan:...

"Get lost—"

With a father who is hopeless at naming, the mother has no choice but to worry more.

Shi Youxuan issued a call to action to name Xiao Erbao.

Everyone was very enthusiastic, but after several days, there wasn't a single name that satisfied everyone, so they finally decided—take it slow, no rush.

Because rushing wouldn't help anyway.

The photo studio called to say the wedding dress they ordered had arrived, asking if they would pick it up or if they should send someone to deliver it to their home.

Shi Youxuan and Sheng Hanyu looked at each other; both of them had completely forgotten about this matter.

The wedding dress had been ordered nearly a year ago, with the studio manager sending the dress to a master craftsman based on Shi Youxuan's measurements.

So many things happened afterward that they forgot about it; who would have thought the wedding dress would be finished now!

The manager explained—fine work takes time.

The logic was sound, but her figure had changed!

And it wasn't just a small change, but—a huge change.

Now there was more than just a little bit of fat on her waist; it was like a ball had popped out!

Shi Youxuan didn't want to go pick it up; what was the point of bringing it back?

It would just be frustrating to look at if she couldn't fit into it.

Sheng Hanyu persuaded her: "Let's go, let's go. If you can't wear it after we bring it back, you can save it for Ranran."

Shi Ran had "coveted" her mother's wedding dress since last year and was incredibly envious of it.

Shi Youxuan thought about it and decided it made sense, so the two of them went to pick up the wedding dress in person.

The wedding dress was taken out of an exquisite box, and the studio staff, wearing brand-new white gloves, carefully displayed the dress in front of Shi Youxuan.

It was shimmering and dazzling, so beautiful that one couldn't take their eyes off it!

"Wow—it's beautiful!" Shi Youxuan exclaimed.

Shi Ran was quite cheeky, her expression identical to her mother's: "Wow—it's beautiful! Mommy, is this mine now?"

Shi Youxuan:...

She considered it carefully and decided—even if she couldn't fit into it, she would keep it for herself; she would lose weight after "unloading" Xiao Erbao, and she would be able to wear it once she regained her figure.

"No, this is mine!"

Shi Youxuan proudly lifted her chin and said to her daughter: "This was custom-made for me by my husband. If you like it, have your husband make one for you when you grow up."
