Lu Yinong started working normal hours.

On Saturday, when both of us were off, she accompanied me for a prenatal check-up.

In the 4D ultrasound image, the baby lazily kicked its legs, not cooperating much.

I focused on the blurry image on the screen, reluctant to even blink.

The doctor withdrew the probe and smiled, "The baby is very healthy."

Then the doctor advised me, "At this seven-month mark, sleep might become more difficult, and you need to take better care of the pregnant woman's emotions. Pregnancy is not an easy thing."

I nodded frantically and took note of all the precautions.

Lu Yinong couldn't help but laugh.

For some reason, I laughed along.

Time is truly magical, isn't it?

When I first met Lu Yinong, how could I have imagined that the girl with a distant and cold expression would one day sit with me in the obstetrics clinic, earnestly learning how to be a qualified parent?

After leaving the hospital, as we passed by a movie theater, she suddenly asked me, "Do you want to watch a movie?"

I quickly looked up the current movie releases, "But the ones currently showing are all action movies. Ah, let's watch this one, a romance film."

I didn't want her to see the fighting in action movies.

She said, "I can watch whatever you want."

Following her gaze, there was a lively couple.

She said calmly, "It seems like it's been a long time since I accompanied you to the cinema, doing things that normal couples should do."

I smiled and held her hand, saying, "Lu Yinong, are you trying to make up for those years you weren't by my side?"

She didn't say anything, but it was an acknowledgment.

I embraced her waist and smiled again, "We don't have to do anything special, as long as you're here, I'm happy."
