The Older Brother of My Student is My Secret Crush

Chapter 160

The two-month summer vacation went by in the blink of an eye. Xiao Chen and Yu Na were practically inseparable during the holiday.

She suddenly had to start working again, and truthfully her heart felt a little reluctant.

Even he himself realized that the image of him nowadays, accompanying her every day instead of wandering about, was vastly different from his university days.

In the past, red wine had been his companion as he traveled the world.

Now, it was "wifey, wifey, still wifey".

During the vacation, Yu Na notified her school about her physical condition.

Upon learning of her pregnancy, Principal Qin temporarily assigned the job of head teacher to a new intern teacher.

He made Yu Na a regular teacher first, so she wouldn't need to stay on campus when not teaching, though she still had to be on duty sometimes during evening self-study.

After her maternity leave she'd resume as head teacher of a 10th grade class.

Yu Na thanked Principal Qin.

Although regular teachers made less than head teachers, head teachers had to stay on campus, which didn't suit her current physical state.

Xiao Chen still drove her to and from work every day, but on days when she didn't have solid blocks of classes and it was hard for him to squeeze out the time, she took a driver instead.

Most of the time it was still him personally driving her.

Yu Na had classes on Wednesdays and Fridays - the last class of the morning and the first class after lunch.

As the food in the school cafeteria was a little oily, Xiao Chen would bring her the nutritious lunches prepared by a dietician and eat with her in the car at the school gate.

He also brought along her favorite snacks.

At first Yu Na still struggled to eat full meals, only wanting to eat sour and spicy things.

Xiao Chen didn't try too hard to stop her or bear to stop her.

Yu Na ate moderately even with snacks, not daring to have too much sugar.

Later, her nausea symptoms slowly started to alleviate, and she ate small frequent meals.

During this period, what made Xiao Chen happiest was watching her eat. Sometimes he would just sit at the table, resting his chin on his hands and looking at her.

Her belly had gradually started to bulge.

The young couple increasingly felt like expectant parents, always discussing things about the baby -

what name they would pick, what their personality might be like, who would they resemble more, and so on.

Sometimes they disagreed, but on one matter they were of the same opinion:

they would save up money for the kids so they could freely develop their own interests and hobbies. With such family circumstances, their true interests were what deserved the most attention.

Xiao Chen was like a child, always wanting to teach the baby in the belly in advance - telling them to listen to Mom and that Dad would get angry if they didn't.

He specifically emphasized: "Dad is very scary when he gets angry!"

Leaning against the bed, Yu Na ruffled his hair with a laugh and teased, "What are you doing, threatening them before they're even born?"

"This is...prenatal education?" Xiao Chen reasoned.

She had never heard of such a terrible thing as "prenatal education".

Although they lived in their own little world, their parents sent no shortage of gifts and supplies - clothes, tonics, and more.

When free, Lin Shu'an often accompanied Yu Na too.

When the mood struck, the two sisters would go out shopping. Every time, Xiao Chen would repeatedly remind Yu Na to be careful.

He wished he could follow them, but the two ladies forbid it.

After learning Yu Na was pregnant, Lin Shu'an often bought her things.

Combined with the gifts from both sets of parents, the young couple already lacked for nothing...

The first semester ended and her maternity leave officially started.

But instead of feeling relief at the vacation, they faced increasing challenges ahead.

In the first trimester it was no problem for Xiao Chen alone to look after her - he just had to cheer her up, supervise her meals; it was no different from when they were dating.

But in the late stages, both sets of parents worried that he would be overwhelmed since he lacked experience.

So Xiao Chen and Yu Na's parents came to Changwan to help care for her.

The parents stayed directly at the S Hotel.

On the day they arrived, Xiao Chen and Yu Na said they would go eat dinner with them at the hotel.

The parents stopped them, worried that walking would be difficult for Yu Na. Xiao's Father had the hotel staff prepare some light meals to be delivered to the villa where Xiao Chen and Yu Na lived.

Upon arriving at the villa, Yu Na's father first sized up the place they lived and its interior design. He knew then that it had all been decorated according to Yu Na's preferences.

Yuna's father patted Xiao Chen's shoulder to show his approval.

The atmosphere at dinner was of course not as lively as back in Beicheng, but still warm amidst the solemnity.

Xiao Chen and Yu Na's mothers planned for them both to come help look after Yu Na starting tomorrow.

Yu Na didn't dare protest now, lacking any experience of her own and needing the adults' assistance.

After dinner Xiao Chen brought Yu Na to rest in the living room while the adults tidied up the dining room spotless, then left after exhorting them a bit.

...

Back at the hotel, Yu Na's mother still worried. She asked her husband, "Should I bring some things and stay over to accompany Na Na?"

"You going over might not be welcomed." Yu Na's father replied casually as he loosened his tie.

"She's pregnant. I'm afraid Xiao Chen can't look after her well enough." Yu Na's mom sighed.

"They're still kids themselves. How can they look after someone?"

"But it's a big deal!"

"You're more nervous than the child."

"I just mean we should help out."

"What I mean is, you need a bath to relax."

At first Yu Na's mother didn't react, having just put away her clothes. She turned around, "Huh?"

Her husband walked over and gently stroked her cheek. Perhaps the wine had put him in a reminiscing mood. He reminded her, "Didn't we get through it just like this back then?"

Back then, Yu Na's mother's relationship with her family was awful, and her no-good younger brother always caused trouble. She started working early after cutting ties with her relatives.

It was at work that she met her future husband. He fell desperately in love at first sight and relentlessly pursued her until she was finally moved.

Their wedding ceremony was very simple. Even during pregnancy, there was no family to help look after her. From beginning to end her husband frantically ran around attending to her needs alone.

Though they had hired domestic helpers, he still worried excessively. From pregnancy through labor he never left his wife's side, watching with his own eyes as Yu Na came into the world.

Compared to them, Yu Na and Xiao Chen were far better off, surrounded by caring people with hardly anything to worry about.

Yuna's father ruffled his wife's hair. "Be good and take a bath. You can go take care of her tomorrow."

After the reminder of earlier times, Yu Na's mother sat chatting with her husband on the sofa after her bath.

"Back then we looked after Na Na all by ourselves until she started elementary school and we let others help."

"Mm-hmm."

"Remember how she used to stick to you all the time when we looked after her ourselves?"
