Bab 219: Visit

"Is there a problem?" In a polite tone with hint of bafflement, Liu Zijian asked his mother.

Normally, Madam Liu would send either him a message or call prior to visiting. But this time, she didn't.

It made the young man wonder if something suddenly came up.

Seeing his father few steps away from them with a relaxed expression, it's not something probably serious. His confusion became more vivid as he questioningly looked at his own mother.

"I can't visit?" Madam Liu asked raising one of her eyebrows. Not waiting for a response, she waltzed inside the house and sat comfortably on the sofa.

Liu Zijian sighed as he greeted his father.

"We are about to eat a light meal, would you like to join us?" He asked glancing to both of their guests.

"No need. We're full." Madam Liu answered as her sight roamed around the house she continued. "Where is Meixiu dear?"

"She'll be here in a while." Liu Zijian answered but his eyes still lingered on his mother as if trying to decipher what she was planning.

"Stop looking at your mother like that, Little Zi. I just really miss your wife. I even dreamed about her last night." Madam Liu emotionally said in a convincing way but unfortunately, none of the men believed it.

Liu Zijian nodded. The more he looked at his own mother the more he understood her reason of the sudden visit. He already guessed the reason why his mother came. But, thinking about it, she's pretty fast.

Could it be, they've been in K Country all this time? His questioning gaze moved to his father then to his mother and back for several times to look for a more definite clue.

Mr. Liu coughed a little to clear his throat before he spoke. That kind of look from his son, how could he not know what it meant?

"I've heard Zilong is in your office. It's unusual for him to be contained in a room full of work."

"En." He simply answered. Based from how his father talked, he knew the answers to his questions. He sighed inwardly.

Could it be they're more excited than him?

When Han Meixiu went out of their room, she was greeted by her parents in law casually sitting in the living room.

"Meixiu dear!" Madam Liu's greeting was quite over the top. Her voice was a pitch higher and her eyes twinkled more radiantly.

Liu Zijian subtly separated the two as he remind his wife to eat first.

With a bit of reluctance, Han Meixiu let Liu ZIjian dragged her away from the living room.

Madam Liu was more than satisfied with what she was seeing thus her smile never receded ever since she barged in.

She's very patient. Although she wanted to shake her son to tell her right away the good news, she still controlled herself.

Since they already had their breakfast, they didn't join the young couple and enjoyed a cup of tea instead.

"Isn't Meixiu specially lovely today? She looks like a spring flower blossoming." She said while keeping her happy smile as she inhaled the aroma of the tea.

Mr. Liu didn't comment. For him, his daughter in law was the same. But he decided not to break the excitement of Madam Liu thus he just listened.

In fact, there wasn't really visible changes in Han Meixiu. It was just because Madam Liu was exceptionally happy, thus everything seemed to be bright and beautiful in her eyes.

The movement of people when removing the numerous flowers earlier didn't go unnoticed by Madam Liu.

She asked why there's a bunch of different flowers moved out of the house. The person she asked simply said, they were ordered by Liu Zijian. Although they were also confused as to why the young master asked to arrange them then within only few minutes he asked to remove them away, they didn't utter a single word to question him.

She wanted to actually teased her son for that failure. But it could wait. Now, what she's looking forward was the news. Although she more or less already knew what would it be, it's still better to hear it directly from them.

As for the final destination of the flowers that were hard to get specially during winter season, it was no other than the LCG office.

In that particular day, all the corners were decorated with different types of flowers. The people actually wondered if there was an event in that day that they're not aware of.

Some of the flowers arranged in bouquets were given randomly to women considered to have an 'outstanding' performance. Although those recipient wanted it the prize to be converted into cash, they still accepted the flowers wholeheartedly.

For the person responsible for the flowers distribution, it was non other than Liu Zilong. Liu Zijian only told him that there will be flowers to be delivered in LCG and it's up to him how to handle them.

The first Young Master was actually overwhelmed with the amount of flowers delivered. It didn't take long before he found out the reason behind the sudden flood of flowers in LCG.

Like Madam Liu, he took note of the incident to tease his younger brother one day.

Sitting inside the study Liu Zijian initiated the talk.

"Mom, we are going to have a celebration." He said.

The moment he saw his mother he knew that she probably here because of his wife's pregnancy. But he still didn't show his thoughts on the surface.

The older woman insisted sicne she came in that she missed her daughter in law. Although it was probably true, Liu Zijian knew there was another reason.

"Celebration for what?" Madam Liu asked feigning her ignorance. But in reality, it wasn't effective. Her eyes and smile betrayed her.

"Meixiu is pregnant. We are having a baby." He said with an expression that was telling the older woman 'you already know it.'

"Ohhh!...Congratulations! Ha ha ha! That's amazing!" Madam Liu exaggeratedly exclaimed. Her voice was even a pitch higher. Her heart was pounding rapidly.

She was really happy. "Let mother arrange everything, alright?"

The younger couple exchanged glances before they agreed.

Since there was a volunteer, why not grab it?

Besides, looking at Madam Liu, she would most definitely not accept 'no' for an answer.

Mr. Liu's lips slightly curved upwards.

He wasn't sure if it was because his wife was genuinely basked in happiness and it was really contagious or the thought of having a grandchild was also kind of exhilarating.

There was not much words shared for a good few minutes as all of them indulged themselves with their own thoughts.
