At Luo’s Residence.

“Aren’t you going too hard on your husband? I mean you asked him to drive back home last night when you could have just let him sleep in your room?” Luo’s mother scolded her while they were having late afternoon tea in their living room.

“Let him experience some hardship… Even until now he’s quiet and hasn’t mentioned anything. Maybe he’s still having more second thoughts. Seems like he did not know how to appease me.” Luo nonchalantly commented. If Noah still went on acting like there was nothing wrong then she would definitely extend her stay at her parent’s house.

“It could be a benefit to him if I stay here since he apparently does not want me to get pregnant,” Luo sarcastically added.

Her mother shook her head. Her daughter, no matter how much she said that she would wait and understand her husband, was still acting childish, against her own words. She was still sulking and she obviously could not move on. It would no longer be healthy if she continues like that.

“Tonight, talk to your husband. Have that heart to heart talk and tell him everything you want to say… It doesn’t matter if you start opening up on this topic or not but what matters is that you two discuss this matter as early as possible and not let it drive a wedge between you!” her mother scolded and Luo only pouted her lips in response.

She, of course, wanted to talk about it but she wanted Noah to start and open up on the topic instead of her.

Hours passed by and soon Noah arrived at Luo’s residence a bit early. He heaved a long deep sigh inside his car. He was aware that Luo was mad at him. But he had some problems with expressing himself. He did not even know how to start and talk to his wife about it.

He would try like Craig advised him to, but deep in his heart, he knew he still had doubts. He was not confident enough but that doesn’t mean he would not try.

Another sigh escaped his mouth before he went out of his car and walked towards the main door to ring the doorbell.

“Oh, you’re early,” Luo’s mother said with a smile.

“Luo is in her room you can directly go there…” his mother-in-law added as he went inside the house.

“Thanks, mom,” Noah said with a smile and headed towards Luo’s room.

Luo’s mother had that teasing smile as her eyes followed the back of her son-in-law. She only hoped those two could finally reconcile.

Noah, on the other hand, expelled another heavy sigh before he opened the door and went inside.

Luo was so engrossed with the book she was reading while her front laid on the bed.

He smiled, watching her playfully move her raised legs.

“What are you reading?” he asked as he sat on the side of the bed.

Luo looked at him blankly and said, “Why are you here early?”

“Can we talk?” Noah muttered.

Luo did not respond but she moved and sat properly on the bed. Then she said, “Alright… What is it?”

“I miss you…” Noah seriously said and Luo did not know whether to get angry or laugh.

“Seriously?” she snorted with a crumpled face.

“I’m sorry…” Noah said next.

‘Damn, you really are a man of few words!’ Luo mused irritably.

She heaved a long deep frustrated sigh then met his gaze and with lifted eyebrows mumbled, “Sorry for what?”

Noah gulped and whispered, “You’re probably disappointed with our last discussion about having a baby and I’m really sorry for not considering your feelings and input in that matter.”

Luo was just sitting silently while she scanned her husband to check his expression. He was obviously struggling, she could read that seeing his conflicted expression. But she appreciated how he was trying to communicate with her about it.

“I feel disappointed but then I will try to understand you since somehow I know where it was coming from. You have doubts and insecurities… But I was hoping that you will overcome that. We are now a family and having children is the greatest blessing we can have.

I’m sure you will be a great father in the long run and I will be here with you to assist you and back you up, baby.” Luo voiced out.

She grabbed Noah’s hands and gently squeezed them as she added, “Noah Yu. You’re so good at handling all your employees. Family is the most basic unit so you will surely handle our family well. I believe in you, baby. So I hope you will also believe in yourself.”

“I will try…” Noah whispered.

Luo rolled her eyes and said, “Don’t just try, baby do it. We can do this together…”

Noah looked in her eyes deeply and gave her a reassuring smile.

“You’re not mad anymore?” Noah asked with an awkward smile, hoping his wife would now come back home with him because he really missed her so much.

Luo pursed her lips and shook her head.

“I wasn’t mad, I was just feeling sulky. Okay, I admit I was mad but I’m okay now…” Luo admitted.

“Can we go back home now after dinner? You see, the room felt so empty without you. Didn’t you notice the dark circles under my eyes? I feel so lonely.” Noah said then pressed his lips.

Luo chuckled because she did notice the dark circles under her husband’s eyes.

She gently touched his cheek and leaned a bit closer to give his lips a peck.

“There, feel better?” she murmured with a grin and chuckled seeing Noah’s twitched face.

“Baby, I will need more than just a peck to feel better and forget those sleepless nights for days.” she heard him whisper.

Luo raised an eyebrow and murmured, “And what are you demanding, huh, to feel better?”

Noah gave her a roguish smile and as Luo expected, her husband pounced at her then hungrily captured her lips.
