Ming Mei lifted up her pointy chin, deliberately saying, "Let's see... after all... the baby is a long way from being born. I will see how you behave in the next few months and how you treat the two of us."
Having finally mustered up the courage to face him, Ming Mei was intentional in pressing him further. After all, she wasn't one to soften easily.
Kang Chen understood Ming Mei. He knew she would respond this way, so he humbled himself, softly asking, "What do you think about how I am currently treating you? Where do I need to improve?"
Ming Mei glanced at him, "Well, it's tolerable for now, but you need to do better. I'm carrying another person now, so you have to be twice as good to me. I'll judge based on your performance from now on."
Kang Chen gently squeezed Ming Mei's hand, "I swear, I will cherish and take good care of both of you. I will give you all the best things I can provide, and all my love."
A tremor went through Ming Mei's heart!
