Transmigration: I Have Storage Space in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 161

Chapter 161: Chapter 158 Silly Dad’s Clumsy and Cute Look

——————

"What are you spacing out for?" Xie Jingchen, although preoccupied with his own thoughts, still maintained control over the environment, a skill that Zhang Shan Ni, despite having lived through two lifetimes, couldn’t match—especially as a little lady who was still well-protected in the apocalypse.

After all, Xie Jingchen’s vigilance was honed at the edge of life and death.

Though Zhang Shan Ni had survived through the apocalypse, in the end, it was her superpower’s rarity that caused her to be raised in captivity. Even when there were one or two accidents, her constant prudence kept her unharmed, always being rescued by her scumbag ex-husband.

If she had to speak of danger and allow herself a proud cry, she felt the most miserable time was when she was penned up as ’meat’ for almost half a month, starving to the point she almost went crazy. So, she had a deep understanding of the feeling of hunger.

Of course, the crazy part was that although her Space was full of food, she dared not reveal a hint of it because of the many strangers around her. At most, when she was extremely thirsty, she would dip her forefinger into her mouth to sneak a bit of water.

Even a fool knows that with enough water, one won’t die in a short time...

"Ah, um? No, I’m just happy," Zhang Shan Ni covered up the misery in her heart with a smile, and as she lifted her eyes to meet Xie Jingchen’s deep tiger-like gaze, she saw not a hint of avoidance, but only gentle concern for her well-being—a wave of warmth surged over her, cheering her up instantly.

"Then eat well, don’t be foolish. The food is getting cold. Eat more vegetables for nutrition~"

"Ah!"

Zhang Shan Ni truly listened happily as Xie Jingchen prattled on, when suddenly, she felt a sharp pain in her abdomen that vanished in less than half a second, instinctively causing her to exclaim in surprise and look down at her abdomen—

"What’s wrong?" Xie Jingchen reacted instantly, stood up quickly, and approached her, as the two were already sitting close next to each other. At Zhang Shan Ni’s cry, Xie Jingchen already knew something was happening. Seeing her lower her head, he asked anxiously in a flustered and worried whisper: "Wife, where does it hurt? I’ll take you to the Rong Medical Department!"

Having said that, Xie Jingchen crouched down, ready to pick her up.

"No, I’m fine!" Zhang Shan Ni hurriedly pressed on the man’s broad shoulders, "It’s just the baby’s first movement, I—I got a little scared!"

"Fetal movement?" Xie Jingchen stiffened a bit, somewhat puzzled and unfamiliar with the term. Then, connecting it with his wife’s act of stroking her abdomen, he looked bewilderedly at the slight bulge beneath his eyes.

A large hand gently rubbed over Zhang Shan Ni’s small one, with a delicate touch and no strength, resting atop her moving hand—the once astute and profound tiger-like eyes now revealed a look of perplexity for the first time in front of Zhang Shan Ni.

"Right, it seems the baby also knows its Dad has come home, so it popped out to say hello to you!" Zhang Shan Ni rested her chin against Big Head’s forehead as he leaned on her belly, explaining with a face full of warmth. Their breaths blended together, filled with intimate meaning.

Maybe like her, the baby had something special too. Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?

Just as the man returned, the baby gave her an unexpected fetal movement shock attack?

Considering that ever since she discovered the life in her belly, the baby had been quite quiet, and she would have fixed conversations with the baby every day, or even read children’s books for prenatal education, and yet she never felt a single movement from the baby!

"It’s not hard at all!" Zhang Shanni, touched by his gesture, declared dominantly: "Because you are my husband, it’s my instinct to give myself to you. From now on, you must never treat me poorly. Most importantly, you belong to me entirely, no betrayals allowed!"

Seeing the man seemingly stunned by her words, Zhang Shanni stated even more righteously: "Your money is mine too, your children are borne by me, even you yourself are mine—no one is allowed to touch a hair on you!"

This Big Head is quite a clean freak—any betrayal would mean a lifetime apart, with no room for gentle words.

Some things can’t be compromised, for they are one’s personal bottom line.

Xie Jingchen looked at his little wife’s sparkling eyes, mulling over her words thrice in his heart before he understood the meaning behind them. Helplessly, he tapped her head, "Silly wife! What nonsense are you thinking? Don’t you know that a military marriage is protected by law? Besides, do I look like an irresponsible man to you? A womanizer? Fickle?"

"Hmph, who knows what the future holds? I’m just making my stance clear to you!"

"Yes, yes, yes, Madame, whatever you say goes. Who else has done great deeds like you, the greatest pregnant woman ever, nothing is as important as you!" Xie Jingchen doted on her, touching the spot he had tapped, looking helplessly indulgent of her stubbornness.

"That’s right~~" Before Zhang Shanni could finish her sigh, she suddenly grabbed his large hand and pressed it forcefully against her belly, excitedly exclaiming: "Husband, the baby moved! It moved again~~~"

"I, I feel it."

Xie Jingchen had already felt the subtle rising curve under his palm. Both of them focused on the belly’s bulge. However, the baby seemed not to care much for its overly excited parents, merely stirring twice before settling down to sleep again...

At this moment, the two of them were still eagerly anticipating the baby’s next powerful kick, completely oblivious to the cold food lying neglected beside them.
