"Xinyu, don't even think about it!" shouted Wu Lina at him.

"Baby, let's go and meet the doctor and take her advice," pleaded Yang Xinyu.

"No! We just met with the doctor. It is so embarrassing to go and meet her and ask her whether we can have sex. Stop being so stupid," said Wu Lina, her blush spreading to her neck.

"How is this stupid? This is a very important problem, baby."

"Yang Xinyu. Go. Off. To. Sleep!" said Wu Lina in staccato, annoyed at him. She turned to her side facing away from him.

Like a small child Yang Xinyu jumped over her, came to sit on the side she was facing, and started throwing tantrums, "Wu Lina, please let's go to the doctor. If you don't want to go to the doctor, we can search for it on the Internet".

She puffed her cheeks, turned again and faced the opposite direction.

He jumped over her again and sat down in front of her with his hands clasped as if praying to his goddess. Wu Lina became very angry and said, "Yang Xinyu, you...! Either way my first trimester is not over, so we will think about it when it gets over. Now go away!"

Yang Xinyu pouted and lied down next to her. He gazed at her as she closed her eyes and let out a small whine. Without opening her eyes, Wu Lina slapped his arms again.

Next day both of them woke up early. While Wu Lina went out for a walk in the garden, Yang Xinyu got dressed for the office. During breakfast he told her that she should not go out anywhere unless he asked her to do so.

"Okay Xinyu, I won't. Also I want to rest," she replied meekly. She remembered when last time she gone against his advice and they landed into a huge trouble. To change the topic, she said, "How is Zhao Hai xiang?" She hadn't got any news about him.

"He is doing fine. He had lost a lot of blood and it will take time before he completely recuperates. But he is a young boy and the doctors say that he should heal fast," replied Yang Xinyu, concern etched on his face.

Yang Xinyu had been so grateful to Zhao Hai xiang for taking care of Wu Lina in his absence in Bulgaria, to the extent that he risked his life for her, that upon return he had got him admitted to the best hospital in City H and a team of specialized doctors was attending to him. He was keeping his track everyday and was waiting for him to recuperate fast. He wanted him back beside himself. He had thought that once Wu Lina would start her company, he would make Zhao Hai xiang her secretary. But was Zhao Hai xiang suited for that job?

"What about Yan Xiaojun?" asked Wu Lina, softly braking his chain of thoughts.

Yang Xinyu nodded and said, "Yes, we will go… But I wouldn't know what gift to buy… Tomorrow if you are fine, let's go buy a gift for him".

Wu Lina smiled and agreed. Soon Yang Xinyu left for the office.

After he had left, Wu Lina lazed around the house and slept after taking a shower. She had actually started liking her time in the house. She realized how much she missed her home and all of a sudden she thought that she didn't want to leave the confines of her house at all! Perhaps it was just a temporary thought. She shook her head and picked her book to read. A few minutes later, her phone buzzed. It was Zhou Zhili calling. Excited, Wu Lina picked the call on the first ring.

"Jie, how are you?" asked Wu Lina enthusiastically.

"Have you forgotten your Jie? You haven't called me in so many days!" said Zhou Zhili clearly very angry with her.

Wu Lina chuckled and said, "Sorry Jie. Let us catch up. Why don't you come over to my place?"

"Wu Lina I would love to, but the doctor has asked me to take bed rest for a few days," she replied.

"Oh! What happened?"

"I don't know…"

"Ok, ok Jie. We can talk about it later," said Wu Lina sensing her inhibition.

Both the friends caught up with each other and chatted for over an hour.

When they finished, Wu Lina saw Yang Xinyu's number flashing on the screen. As soon as she picked, he retorted, "Why is your phone busy? Who have you been talking to for so long? I must have tried you at least twenty time!"

Wu Lina rolled her eyes and said, "I was talking to Zhou Zhili, Yang Xinyu."

"Don't keep yourself busy for so long…" he complained like a small child.

"Okay! Tell me what is it that you want to talk about?" asked Wu Lina with a sigh. He had been throwing a lot of tantrums recently.

"I am missing you…" he replied.

"Then come home."

Yang Xinyu laughed and said, "If you say that one more time, I will."

Wu Lina laughed and said, "So corny."
