TVSFPAG -Side Story After Marriage (Part 2)

After one month, Chu Jinhan didn’t work overtime even for a single day. The very next day, he took Song Yunfei and set off.

Song Yunfei’s list was very long—at least a dozen countries.

Their first stop was Cappadocia in Turkey, to ride a hot air balloon.

Sitting inside the balloon, Song Yunfei looked at the land stretching endlessly beneath her, her eyes filled with bright excitement.

The morning wind carried a chill, brushing against her face with a damp coolness.

Chu Jinhan pulled her into his arms, shielding her from the cold wind.

She leaned against the edge of the basket, gazing down at the forest of rock pillars and the sky full of drifting hot air balloons illuminated by the morning light.

Song Yunfei couldn’t help but exclaim, “It’s so beautiful.”

Chu Jinhan’s gaze never left her face. The glow of dawn cast a golden halo around her, as if even her hair strands were shimmering.

“Mm, it is beautiful,” he agreed—though it was unclear whether he was referring to the scenery or to her.

The wind lifted her long hair, and behind her stretched a vast expanse of sunrise glow. In that moment, she seemed to merge into the brilliant world around her.

Free, lively, and breathtakingly unreal.

Chu Jinhan’s heart stirred slightly. He gently pulled her into his arms from behind and said softly, “Be careful.”

Song Yunfei turned to look at him and smiled. “I saw online that if you kiss in a hot air balloon, you’ll be blessed and stay together forever—”

Before she could finish, the man had already leaned in and kissed her.

Did he really have to be that quick!

Beneath the vast open sky, they shared a long kiss.

After a while, he finally released her.

Song Yunfei looked at him and complained softly, “I hadn’t finished talking yet.”

He rested his lips lightly against hers and murmured, “Whether there’s a blessing or not, we’ll still be together forever.”

Song Yunfei’s cheeks flushed.

His sweet talk was becoming more and more natural.

Chu Jinhan took out a camera, and under the pretext of recording a video, kissed her a second time.

After that, they went to Norway to see the aurora and go dog sledding, then to the Maldives to explore the underwater world.

They visited the East African savanna, New Zealand’s South Island, the Antarctic Peninsula, Iceland, and more—one destination after another.

They took countless photos and videos.

After spending an entire year traveling around the world, Song Yunfei felt completely transformed.

Traveling to places she loved with the person she loved—every day felt fulfilling and beautiful.

As the New Year approached, Mrs. Chu called several times urging them to return home, and the two had no choice but to head back.

They still hadn’t finished seeing the whole world, so they could only continue next year.

That night, in the hotel while packing for their flight the next day, Song Yunfei suddenly felt a surge of nausea in her stomach. Covering her mouth, she rushed into the bathroom.

Chu Jinhan had just taken off his clothes to shower when he saw her bent over the sink, vomiting.

His eyelid twitched slightly.

He silently put his clothes back on and went out to buy a pregnancy test.

Ten minutes later, the two of them sat in silence, staring at the two lines on the test strip.

Although Song Yunfei often talked about having a child, when the moment actually arrived, she found herself a little nervous.

She turned to look at Chu Jinhan, who also looked somewhat dazed.

“What’s wrong? You’re not happy?” Song Yunfei asked.

Chu Jinhan took the test strip from her and examined it for a long while, then frowned. “I used protection every time. How did this happen?”

Song Yunfei said faintly, “You always put it on halfway through. I told you this would happen.”

Chu Jinhan replied, “Wasn’t that the method you shared with me?”

Song Yunfei paused, then gave a sheepish smile. “Was it? I forgot.”

Chu Jinhan held her hand and pulled her into his arms. “Since it’s here, it means fate has arrived. Let’s welcome it properly.”

Song Yunfei instinctively touched her lower abdomen and nodded slightly. “Then… do you prefer a boy or a girl?”

“Both.”

“How many do you want to have?”

Chu Jinhan looked down at her and said, “If you’re willing to have children, then have them. If you don’t want to, then we won’t have any in the future.”

When it came to having children, Song Yunfei felt a bit afraid.

She had often come across frightening videos about childbirth online. But despite her fear, she still wanted to have a child with Chu Jinhan.

Because it was worth it.

And because she wanted to make their family more complete, and to let their love continue.

After the two returned, Mrs. Chu scolded Chu Jinhan.

But upon learning that Song Yunfei was pregnant, her attitude immediately changed, and she couldn’t stop smiling.

“I told you so! You should have gone out and relaxed properly. With too much stress, it’s harder to conceive.”

Since their marriage, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law hadn’t had any conflicts, but they also rarely spent time together.

In summary, they were polite enough, but not close.

Now, Mrs. Chu asked Song Yunfei to move back in so it would be more convenient to take care of her.

Song Yunfei naturally didn’t refuse—it was a good opportunity to build a closer relationship.

She also shared the news with her own parents.

Song Dashan and his wife had already returned home. Previously, Bai Yu had offered to arrange for them to stay at the Bai family residence, or, if they weren’t comfortable, to provide them with a separate property.

But the two had declined. They weren’t familiar with the place and didn’t feel comfortable, so after Song Dashan’s surgery, they returned home.

Upon learning that their daughter was pregnant, the elderly couple finally breathed a sigh of relief.

They believed that having a child would help her stand firm—otherwise, without a child, she might one day be cast aside.

Bai Yu and the others also learned of the news. Su Wanhua was temporarily away and couldn’t return, so she would only come back during the New Year to see her.

Bai Yu and Bai Yun came to visit, bringing a large number of gifts.

Especially Bai Yu—he had already left his job as a doctor and joined his father’s company, preparing to take over the family business.

After Song Yunfei became pregnant, he came almost every day.

This made Chu Jinhan very annoyed with him, though he couldn’t say much.

At their wedding, Bai Yu had embarrassed him, and afterward ran away. Chu Jinhan searched for two months but couldn’t find him.

Now, every time the two met, it was like fire and water.

Whenever Chu Jinhan wanted to do something, Bai Yu would use his status as a doctor to warn him.

If Chu Jinhan dared to act against him, he would go complain to Song Yunfei—and if that caused any harm to the baby, Chu Jinhan would be the culprit.

Thus, Chu Jinhan could only endure him again and again.

Song Yunfei’s initial worries about pregnancy gradually eased under everyone’s meticulous care.

She realized that with enough money, pregnancy truly wasn’t as painful as she had imagined.

A top-tier obstetrics and gynecology expert team constantly monitored her condition. Nutritionists designed personalized meal plans based on her body type and early pregnancy symptoms.

Even during her worst bouts of morning sickness, they could still find foods she could tolerate.

She had a dedicated prenatal fitness trainer to help manage her physique, and a psychologist who spoke with her daily, concerned about her anxiety.

With a professional team, along with family companionship and attentive care, Song Yunfei often forgot she was even pregnant.

Her initial nervousness had faded, replaced by anticipation for the new life about to arrive.

She rested her hand on her slightly protruding belly and looked at the man crouching on the floor, trimming her toenails.

“So this is what it’s like to be rich—pregnancy is as easy as drinking water.”

Upon hearing this, Chu Jinhan looked up at her and gently placed her foot down.

He then sat beside her and lightly placed his hand on her belly.

He said, “It has nothing to do with money. It’s just that I don’t want you to suffer unnecessary pain.

Even without money, I would still find every possible way to make sure you wouldn’t have to endure so much hardship—though the conditions might not be as good as they are now.”

Song Yunfei’s heart stirred. She couldn’t help but lean into his embrace. Hearing his steady and powerful heartbeat, she felt an unprecedented sense of security.

At times like this, she realized that many things have nothing to do with money. What matters more is what the other person does.

Whether they truly put you in their heart, whether they are willing to give everything for you and do their utmost.

Just like Chu Jinhan before he regained his memory—even if she had been pregnant at that time, he would still have worked tirelessly to earn money so she could have a peaceful pregnancy.

Choosing the right person means that even if you are temporarily in hardship, there will still be light in your heart.

If the person is wrong, even with mountains of gold and silver, one’s inner world can still be barren.

The loneliness of her earlier years had finally been fulfilled after meeting him.
