Chapter 494

Ye Zhi said in surprise, "I felt some foetal movement just now. Did you hear it?"

Gu Ren straightened up, raised his eyes and looked at Ye Zhi for a few seconds. He then said, "The baby kicked me just now."

After Ye Zhi heard it, she couldn't help but laugh, "The baby is quite energetic."

Gu Ren glanced at Ye Zhi resentfully until Ye Zhi only stopped laughing. She stared at Gu Ren, "It's because the baby likes you."

Ye Zhi lowered her head as she gently touched her stomach and said, "Be good, baby. Daddy wants to see you, so you shouldn't be naughty."

Then, Ye Zhi looked at Gu Ren, "Have another listen."

Gu Ren nodded.

Gu Ren bent down for the second time. The right side of his face was pressed against Ye Zhi's stomach as he continued to listen carefully.

This time, the naughty baby kicked Gu Ren in the face repeatedly, showing the proof of his existence.

Ye Zhi also felt the baby's strength, which was a little heavier than what it was before.

Ye Zhi silently looked at Gu Ren, whose facial expressions darkened.

That was because this wasn't the first time such a situation happened.

Gu Ren didn't quite understand why a baby who was normally very quiet would be against him.

The baby in the womb expressed its protests to Gu Ren many times, so he had every reason to suspect that it was a boy.

His future child was here to snatch Ye Zhi from him— a little rival who had already won Ye Zhi's liking even before he was born.

Gu Ren stared at Ye Zhi's stomach and was silent for a while. An unprecedented sense of dread spread across his entire being and his expression dimmed a little, time seemingly standing still.

Gu Ren's facial features were originally cold like a silent snow field, but that same field seemed to be shrouded in dark clouds.

Ye Zhi noticed Gu Ren's odd expressions, so she sat beside him and leaned over slightly, looking at his face.

She felt that it was strange. Hence, she reached out and waved her hand in front of Gu Ren's eyes, "What's wrong?"

After a long while, Gu Ren came back to his senses and slowly raised his head to look at her. Those deep and black eyes were as bright as stars, but there was a deep emotion hidden in them.

Gu Ren stared at Ye Zhi for a moment. He struggled for a long time before unhurriedly saying, "He might be a boy."

Speaking of this, Gu Ren's tone was slightly cold. The corners of his lips pursed into a straight line and his displeasure was very obvious.

Gu Ren's eyes were jet black as he leaned even closer. With a slightly elongated voice, he asked a very important question in his life.

"So, do you like him or do you like me?"

Ye Zhi was stunned and wasn't able to formulate a response for a moment. She stared at Gu Ren for some time and suddenly realised that her husband was getting jealous because of the child.

Ye Zhi couldn't hold back as she bent her lips and smiled. She didn't say a word and merely looked at Gu Ren, smiling.

Gu Ren didn't get the answer he wanted, so he could only shift his position and direct his attention towards the baby in the womb.

Gu Ren lowered his head and eyes when he looked down at Ye Zhi's stomach. His voice was deep as he said a sentence very clearly.

"Remember, your mother is mine," The warning was obvious.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Zhi's stomach suddenly hurt. The baby had kicked again, as if through her belly, the child was expressing a silent protest towards Gu Ren.

Ye Zhi, "..."
