Chapter 44: Are You Hooked?

"Alright, dear fathers and mothers, today's early education class comes to an end here. If you have any further questions, you can go to the entrance and find Teacher Huahua, and she will answer them for you."

People stood up one after another, and Chen Yuan picked up little Miri.

"Wait for me a moment, I'm going to consult about something."

"Mm."

Chen Yuan stood by the door holding the baby, while Jiang Wangyi and other parents gathered around the early education teacher to ask related questions.

"How many months old is your baby?" a nearby parent asked.

"She's turning nine months old soon."

"About the same age as mine. Does your husband take care of the baby all the time?"

"Mm, he takes care of everything."

This wasn't the first or second time she had been misunderstood, and Jiang Wangyi didn't bother to clarify.

They were just passing acquaintances who would likely never meet a second time anyway. What their relationship actually was didn't matter; since nobody would ever know the truth, there was no need to waste time and effort explaining.

"I'm so envious of you, having such a great husband. At my house, it's just me handling everything. The moment my husband tries to look after the kid, it turns into utter chaos, giving me endless worry."

"It really is quite worry-free at my place. I don't have to do a thing."

The feeling of showing off like this was simply too good; Jiang Wangyi couldn't help herself.

She even wanted the other woman to ask a few more questions.

Anyway, Chen Yuan wasn't here, so she could just chat freely.

"I'll have a serious talk with him when I get back. Look at your husband, and then look at the one we have at home—there's simply no comparison."

Although it wasn't true, at this moment, Jiang Wangyi's vanity was slightly satisfied.

After a brief chat and a few more questions, Jiang Wangyi walked away.

"How do you feel? Do you think it's necessary to sign up?"

"Unnecessary." Chen Yuan shook his head and said,

"We can kiss at home; there's no need to do it here."

Huh?

Jiang Wangyi paused. She had expected Chen Yuan to comment on the early education curriculum, not the kissing segment.

"You brat, I'm being serious," Jiang Wangyi said, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"The rest of the content can be done at home too. No need to waste money."

"That's what I was thinking."

Their thoughts were mostly aligned, but Jiang Wangyi was still used to asking for Chen Yuan's opinion.

If he thought it was useful, she would have signed up for a few classes to try.

"Let's go take a look around the maternity and baby store and buy some other things."

"Mm."

The two of them went to the baby store, had a meal afterward, and then drove back home.

After parking the car, Jiang Wangyi hurried upstairs. It had definitely accumulated again.

Sure enough, after changing her clothes and coming out, she was holding a bottle with over 200 milliliters of milk.

"If I keep drinking like this, I really feel like I'm going to grow taller."

"Then grow a bit more."

Faced with such teasing, Jiang Wangyi had grown used to it.

After finishing the milk, the two divided their tasks clearly. They played with the baby for a while before it was time for a bath.

Around nine in the evening, Chen Yuan sang nursery rhymes and coaxed little Miri to sleep.

The wonderful thing about the reward was that even if his English was terrible, as long as it was in his repertoire, he could sing it with standard pronunciation.

At the same time, Jiang Wangyi had changed into yoga pants, preparing for today's postpartum recovery.

The gap between her thighs still existed, and Chen Yuan stretched out two fingers to measure the space between them.

"It seems to be having some effect."

"I can only say you're amazing."

"Let's keep going. After doing it continuously for a few times, there should be a noticeable effect."

"You're the professional, I'll listen to you."

"Mm."

Jiang Wangyi lay flat on the bed, with little Miri sleeping right beside her. As she lay down, she habitually kissed the baby's cheek.

Chen Yuan followed yesterday's routine to continue the postpartum recovery.

First, the rectus abdominis muscles were repeatedly guided to close toward the center.

Jiang Wangyi noticed that today's rectus abdominis recovery took noticeably longer than yesterday's. Looking into his eyes, he looked very focused.

"Are you addicted to touching them?"

"Honestly, the texture really is quite nice, feels especially soft."

Jiang Wangyi was both exasperated and amused. How could a slightly fleshy belly possess such great charm?

After finishing the rectus abdominis recovery came the pelvic floor muscles. While pressing, he also tapped back and forth on the surface.

With the tapping, the flesh on her buttocks also trembled along, resembling ripples on the surface of water.

With her eyes closed, Jiang Wangyi remained completely still.

Although it hurt a little, she could endure it.

However, while tapping her pelvis, Chen Yuan missed a few times and hit her bottom instead...

This brat, couldn't have done it on purpose, right...

Probably not; Chen Yuan was definitely not that kind of person.

Still...

He must have peeked...

Unconsciously, a trace of an imperceptible smile appeared at the corners of Jiang Wangyi's mouth.

Most of the time he was wonderful, and only occasionally mischievous...

About an hour later, today's postpartum recovery work was completed.

Chen Yuan wasn't needed for the remaining exercises; he had taught her yesterday, and she could just use the props herself.

Jiang Wangyi went to the living room, while Chen Yuan stayed in the bedroom.

Feeling around on the changing pad, little Miri had peed. He changed her pad, dusted on some talcum powder, and draped a small blanket over her.

Little Miri was sleeping soundly, adopting an abstract sleeping posture with her limbs spread
