Chapter 997
It was Saturday. The sun was shining brightly.
Temperatures of the north were low in the early spring, but the sun shone bright and warm. So, it
was pretty warm inside.
Emily, who got upte, yawned and came out of the bedroom. As soon as she went downstairs, she
heard Simone from the vestibule and hurried to greet him.
Last week, they had moved from the apartment in Riverside Court to the vi here. Although Emily
had not yet got used to living here, she considered it as their sweet home as long as they could stay
together.
Simon was on the night shift yesterday and just came back from the hospital at this time. Before he
came in, Emily smelled the tantalizing aroma of steamed dumplings. He must have bought them
from her favorite restaurant around the street corner. Just by the smell, she could tell that they were
seafood and pork-stuffed dumplings.
Emily quickly reached out to take the food, and her empty stomach was roaring.
She turned around, intending to eat them in the dining room. However, she suddenly stopped
because she surprisingly found that Simon was holding a fishbowl in his arms!
Emily asked in astonishment, "Honey, you bought it?"
"Yes." Simon smiled and put on slippers. Then he put the fishbowl on the cab by the living room
window and said, "When I bought the breakfast, I went to the market for pets and nts!"
The fishbowl was the size of Emily''s face, and there were two-thirds of the water inside with some
seaweed, coral, and a few colorful small stones. In the water, two goldfish were swimming happily,
shaking their heads and tails.
He could not buy the two tiny fish to cook.
Emily asked him uncertainly, "Do you want to raise them?"
"Well, yes!" Simon nodded and took out two bags of fish food from his windbreaker pocket. "One
fish is male, and the other is female!"
Emily looked at his slender fingers taking the fish food and sprinkling it into the fishbowl. It seemed
that he was interested in this. She could not help wondering, "Why do you want to raise goldfish?"
Simon nced at her and said, "If the pets raised at home are pregnant, their owners can also get
pregnant!" "...Who said that?" Emily was stunned for a moment. She had never heard of such a
thing before!
"I read it online!" Simon, who was feeding the fish, replied.
Emily was dumbfounded.
There was no scientific evidence to support this!
Please, did you forget that you were a doctor?
Emily could feel that he was already obsessed with the matter of pregnancy.
In fact, she was not worried about when the baby would arrive, so she just let nature take its course.
But it seemed that Simon was determined to be a father as soon as possible!
Emily paid no more attention to him. She carried the steamed dumplings to the kitchen to get
chopsticks and bowls.
After she finished eating thest steamed dumplings, the aroma still lingered between her lips and
teeth. Besides, the rice porridge was very sticky. She drank up arge bowl of it. When she put
down the chopsticks, Simon, on the opposite side, also finished eating and wiped his mouth with a
tissue.
Emily asked with concern, "Were there many patients in the hospitalst night?"
Simon replied, "It''s okay. Only the condition of one patient in ICU was not stable in the evening!"
His exhausted look distressed her, and Emily quickly said, "Then you must not have slept much and
must be tired, right? Honey, go back to your room and take a nap!"
"OK!" Simon nodded.
Five minutester, both of them were lying on their big bed in the bedroom.
The curtain was closed tightly, and no light could go through it. Emily''s clothes were all taken off. In
the blink of an eye, there were only two pieces of underwear left. Emilyined, her face red,
"Hey, I''m asking you to sleep, not asking you to sleep with me!"
"Don''t forget our current target!" Simon said, pulling the buttons of his shirt.
"What is it?" asked Emily.
"Be parents!" Simon answered, taking it for granted.
The corner of Emily''s mouth twitched.
That''s your goal...
Without giving her any chance to resist, Simon pulled the nket and covered it around the two of
them. In the darkness, he found her lips and kissed her.
A kiss was enough to arouse them sexually.
Emily suddenly poked her head out of the nk and patted him on the shoulder.

"No, wait..."
How could Simon be willing to listen to her at this time? With the intense desire, his handsome face
was slightly distorted. He could feel the blood pulsing through his veins. Emily knew that he was
waiting impatiently for action, and his intense stare gave her a feeling of danger.
Emily struggled and shouted in a hurry, "Simon, don''t make trouble. Just wait a minute!"
"What''s wrong?" Simon frowned.
His dark-colored peach blossom eyes were fixed on her, and a trace of embarrassment shed
across Emily''s face. She cleared her throat and said cautiously, "Ahem... I think I have my period!"
"Your period?" Simon stiffened a little.
"Yeah..." Emily bit her lip.
When he unbuttoned her bra, she faintly felt that something was wrong.
Simon froze there. After a long while, he turned over and got down off her reluctantly.
Emily wrapped herself in a quilt and walked to the window. She picked up the clothes on the
ground, feeling embarrassed and awkward, and bashfully trotted into the bathroom.
Sure enough, her period was reallying!
How could her periode at such a crucial moment? It was such a tragedy!
She changed into clean underpants, took out a sanitary napkin from the drawer, and then washed
the blood-stained underpants clean. After that, she walked out and saw that Simon leaned on the
headboard, his peach blossom eyes lowering down. He looked lonely and a little distressed.
Emily knew that he must be depressed. After all, he was stopped abruptly when in high spirits.
Emily walked over, climbed onto the bed, and sat next to him. She heard him ask, "Is your period
coming?"
"Yes..." She nodded.
"Then you are not pregnant this time again!" Simon said, his mouth a thin line.
"Umm..." Emily bit her lips.
She did not expect this. If her period came, it meant that all their previous efforts to get pregnant
failed...
Emily looked at his upset side face, knowing that he must feel very frustrated. As she opened her
mouth and was about tofort him, she heard his faint voice. "Emily, we failed to protect ourst
baby, so we''re punished by the heavens and can''t have another baby for such a long time, am I
right?"
"Of course not!" Emily''s heart tightened, and she quickly denied it.
Afraid that he would me himself, she held his big hand and tried tofort him. "That child was
an ident. There is no fate between us! I have never med you for that in my heart!"
"Really?" Simon looked at her.
"Well!" Emily nodded her head heavily. Seeing him lower his peach blossom eyes again, she sighed
softly. She leaned over and hugged his firm body lightly, "Sweetheart, don''t think too much about it!"
Simon was silent.
However, he still lowered his head and sat there motionless for a long time. It seemed that there
was a rain cloud hanging over his head.
Emily could not help biting her lips lightly.
She thought he was in a bad mood. When she was thinking about how tofort him, Simon''s
handsome face suddenly raised up. He clenched his fists and said with sparkling eyes. "It seems
that I have to go to a temple tomorrow and worship the Celestial Maiden who brings children!" "..."
Emily covered her face.
