Rebirth in 1986: Unforgettable Regrets novel Chapter 874

Chapter 874: Chapter 874: Tang Jun Fails to Show Up

"Come, try the cake I made." Si Yu removed the extinguished candles, cut a piece of cake, and handed it to her, looking at her expectantly.

To learn how to make this cake, Si Yu started preparing half a month in advance. In the past few days, he’d come home late every night, actually spending an hour at the cake shop learning how to bake.

He wasn’t sure how many cakes he’d messed up before achieving this result.

Tang Yue met his expectant gaze and put the cake into her mouth. The cream melted instantly, sweet and soft, comparable to the ones in cake shops.

"Delicious." Tang Yue’s bright eyes showed surprise as she offered a piece of cake to him and said, "When did you learn to bake? This tastes just like the ones from the bakery."

"Really?"

It was rare to see Si Yu lacking confidence, but as he ate the cake she offered, seeing her happy expression, he felt that the hard work of the past half month hadn’t been in vain.

The couple ate the cake and had a simple meal of three dishes and a soup, enjoying a warm and lovely atmosphere.

This birthday, Tang Yue was very happy.

Si Yu washed all the dishes in the house and sat with her on the sofa, his eyes almost glued to her.

Tang Yue sensed something and asked, "Are you leaving today?"

"I’m leaving in an hour." Si Yu’s voice turned low, his hand tightly gripping hers, his gaze full of reluctance and guilt.

She was pregnant with twins, now over seven months along, and a mishap could lead to premature birth.

He should be by her side at all times now, but his work didn’t allow it...

"Then come back soon." Tang Yue tilted her head slightly, suppressing her reluctance, and with a hint of a smile, placed his hand on her belly and said, "The baby and I are at home waiting for your return."

"Wife, don’t worry, I’ll come back safe and sound."

Si Yu stretched out his long arm, wrapping her entire body in his embrace, her faint fragrance calming his restless heart.

An hour was brief. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Just after Si Yu left, Zhang Hualian returned.

Seeing Tang Yue standing in the courtyard, forcing her tears back, made Zhang Hualian feel distressed. She supported her and said, "If you want to cry, just cry."

"Mom." As soon as Tang Yue spoke, her choked voice and tears she had been holding back suddenly fell all at once.

"I don’t want him to leave."

"But I can’t be willful. He’s leaving for work, not for fun."

"I’m just feeling sad."

Tang Yue’s soft voice, with sobs, pained Zhang Hualian’s heart. She comforted her, "Xiao Yue, life is always like this, not everything goes smoothly."

At first, Zhang Hualian had concerns about this, but they truly loved each other, and as a mother, she didn’t want to see Si Yu’s work decide that he would always be away, unable to be by Tang Yue’s side.

"Mom, I’m okay. I’m just feeling sad, but I’ll be fine soon." Tang Yue said through her tears, understanding in her heart, but she couldn’t stop feeling sad.

"Xiao Yue, look what I’ve brought back for you?"

When Tang Zhengde returned, Tang Yue’s mood had stabilized. He had specially made a bowl of hot and sour noodles, perfect for whetting the appetite.
