Chapter 321 - It's Been Long
Fu Hee asked about Jia Li's health and how she was feeling now.
"Do you need me to send another professional to assist like Mrs. Zu?" Fu Hee asked with a smile.
"No Aunty, it will be a hassle. My doctor comes over to check up on me and the child, so it's fine." Jia Li said as she rejected her politely.
"If you say so. Don't forget to reach out to me if you have any troubles. Although my mother-in-law and a nanny helped me when I had Fu Hua, I still know a thing or two." Fu Hee said to her.
"Thank you, Aunty. I will seek your guidance when I need it." Jia Li said with a smile.
"Good." Fu Hee said and glanced at the child in her arms. The little girl looked so innocent as she watched her.
"Jia Li, we brought some soup for you, drink it while it's hot." Fu ChunHua said as she took out the flask from the bag and put it on a stool.
"Aunty, don't you think I am getting fatter? If I keep eating all these foods, I may not be able to fit in my clothes." Jia Li said.
She was tired of drinking soup already. In every meal she ate, she must either drink a medicinal herb or a soup cooked with some herbs.
"The soup is medicinal, it won't make you put on some weight. I like the way your cheeks are looking rounder, that shows that you are eating well." Fu ChunHua replied.
"Jia Li, don't worry about putting on a little weight because you can't escape it. You are still breastfeeding, so you need to be eating constantly. Don't worry, you can still lose the fat if you want." Fu Hee said to her in a gentle tone.
"Yes, don't worry about being fat. You just need to eat healthily and there is nothing wrong with putting on some weight. But even if you want to shed some fats, it's easy. We can get someone that will help you when you are ready. For now, concentrate and feed our girl well and you are already doing a good job." Fu ChunHua added with a smile.
Jia Li sighed and asked the servant by the side to turn the soup into a bowl and bring it for her.
Jia Li was worried about the changes made to her body. It would be easy to tell that something major went on in her body. She couldn't wait to return to her shape and go out in public.
She didn't want all eyes to be on her, as nobody knows she was married or even had a child. She was preparing to return to the limelight again and that will happen when she gets into FJ.
Breastfeeding made her eat a lot. Now, she has to wait till Jasmine is a little older before she could improvise but she doubts that she would do that
Jia Li planned on doing exclusive breastfeeding for Jasmine for 6 months before she could introduce other baby foods and Fu Hua supported that, as he wants his daughter to enjoy the basic nutrients required.
Since the soup had nothing to do with her putting on weight, Jia Li finished a bowl. When she asked if she wanted more, she rejected the idea.
When Jasmine cried because of hunger, Jia Li took out her food from the warmer and passed it to Fu Hee, so she could bottle-feed her.
"This is a good idea." Fu ChunHua said from the side and Fu Hee agreed with her. It was so convenient to bottle-feed a baby, especially in public.
As Jasmine was gradually getting used to bottle-feeding, she didn't encounter any trouble with sucking her milk from the bottle.
Before work hours were over, Fu Hee and Fu ChunHua left.
When Fu Hua came back from work, Jia Li and Jasmine were already in the bedroom. He went straight to kiss his wife and his sleeping daughter on their cheeks, before going to freshen up.
When he returned, Jia Li asked how work was and the progress for the upcoming fashion show.
"It was fine. I will be very busy tomorrow but I will try to come back on time." Fu Hua said to her in a gentle tone.
"It's alright, work is important, we understand. You already sacrificed a lot to work from home just so you could spend time with us." Jia Li said with a smile.
"It's not a sacrifice, it is my responsibility to take care of my family." Fu Hua whispered in her ear and bit it gently before leaning away.
Jia Li frowned as she touched her ear and said to him, "That tickles."
"When will your confinement period end?" Fu Hua asked as he gazed at her affectionately.
"Soon, in about 2 or 3 weeks." Jia Li replied.
Fu Hua hugged her and said, "I can't wait already, it's been long."
Jia Li didn't need to ask him what he meant by that. She understood him clearly. She blushed and touched his arms which circled her waist.
Seeing she was quiet, he asked in a hushed tone, "Don't you miss us laying naked beside each other in bed?"
"How can you talk about that, so blatantly?" Jia Li asked with crimson cheeks. She was shy with him mentioning their sexual activity.
"Answer me." Fu Hua said as he kissed her neck.
His action tickled Jia Li and she instinctively move her shoulder upwards. His breath caressed her neck and caused that place to feel ticklish.
"I missed it." Jia Li replied. There was silence for a while before she turned to face him.
"If you want me to satisfy you the other way, I can do that." Jia Li said as she fiddled with her fingers. She was so shy when she thought about the other ways she could pleasure him.
Fu Hua smiled and took her hands in his. Then he said in a gentle voice, "Thank you but there is no need, I will wait for your confinement period to end before we do that. You just have to bear in mind that I have been starved for too long, so you need to eat enough and start conserving your energy for that day."
Jia Li blushed and covered her face with her palms. Her husband really knew how to talk dirty.. In fact, he was an expert in it.
