She sprinkled the powder over the dish, quickly dissolving into the sauce without a trace.She then cleaned the box and tossed it into the trash can before carefully carrying the braised pork into the dining room.She stood staring at the dish for a long while with trepidation upon placing the dish on the table. She then returned to the kitchen and brought all the other dishes into the dining room.The dishes included braised pork, pork ribs, sour-and-spicy stir-fried potato strips, steamed fish, sea cucumber with scallions, bird’s nests, and savory duck stew.Everything looked appetizing and smelled great.Once the table had been set, she went to address everyone in the living room. “Dinner is ready, everybody.”Jeremy was joyfully holding Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton’s hands as he spoke to them.Seeing his joyful grin, Betty

At this moment, Xyla Quest’s motherly instincts had been activated.Her gaze softened as she lovingly rubbed her lower belly. She imagined her adorable baby doing flips in her stomach while she ate.She was able to visualize her baby growing each day in her stomach, as well as her loving husband and father by her side.Xyla felt like she was the luckiest girl in the world.After dinner at the Quest family’s house, Xyla and Stanley Batton strolled out of the house, holding each other’s hand.It was cloudy outside, and snow the size of goose feathers fell from the sky.The large snowflakes glistened brightly under the lights.The courtyard was covered in a white blanket, looking clean and picturesque.“Honey, why don't we take a leisurely walk home right now? We can leave the car behind and then send someone over to get it tomorrow,” Xyla suggested.“Okay.” Stanley would never turn down any of her requests.He removed his black coat and then draped it over Xyla’s white coat. “I

Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton’s heads were completely covered in white by the time they arrived home.They both flicked off all the snow before entering their house.Inside, the heater was on full blast, making it feel like a completely different world from the outside.Xyla instantly felt active after entering the warm house.Removing Stanley’s coat, she glanced at him. “Are you sure you’re not cold?”Xyla was already freezing even though they’d only walked in the snow for less than ten minutes.“Not at all.”“You sure are resistant to the cold,” Xyla retorted and then rubbed her hands together while she quickly ran over to the couch. She picked up a white blanket to cover her legs until she soon felt warm again.Stanley unhurriedly put away their shoes before sitting down next to her, his arms extending to sit her forcefully on his lap.Xyla leaned against him naturally before she picked up her phone and opened Weibo to examine the current list of hot topics.The topics fro

Xyla Quest felt her baby kicking again.The warm sensation spread from her stomach to the rest of her body.Presently, she felt boundless energy all over her body.Her feelings of exhaustion had disappeared completely, feeling as if she had only just woken up in the morning.Xyla was a little surprised by this strange feeling, uncertain why she would feel like this when her baby kicked her in the stomach.This was something Xyla had never discovered.Right then, Stanley Batton walked up to her. “The bath is ready, Darling.”Xyla gently rubbed her stomach and gazed at him. “Our baby just kicked.”His gaze softened significantly when he heard this.He splayed his hand on her stomach with a loving look in his eyes. “We’ll be able to meet each other very soon.”Right then, Xyla felt the baby kicking gently again, right at the spot where Stanley was touching.He instantly felt his heart melting.“Can the baby sense that I’m touching your stomach? I could feel the baby kicking,”

Xyla Quest nodded. “I’ll do it myself.”“I’ll peel it for you,” Stanley Batton told her.“But I would like to eat the roasted sweet potatoes first,” she said.“You can have it first.”Xyla happily began to eat a sweet potato after peeling one.The sweet potatoes Zack Cassidy bought were all tiny but sweet.Outside, it was snowing.It felt right to be eating roasted sweet potatoes on a snowy day like this.After taking two bites, Xyla brought the sweet potato close to Stanley’s mouth. “Here, have a taste. It's really sweet.”He slowly took a bite. “Yeah, you can eat this. I don’t really like them.”While Xyla ate without care, Stanley started peeling the stir-fried, sugary chestnuts for her.It was such an ordinary moment, yet she felt extraordinarily happy.Happiness should be simple like that.After finishing the sweet potatoes, she started on the chestnuts Stanley had peeled.Without realizing it, she ended up eating everything.She rubbed her stomach guiltily upon rea

Can I add you as my friend later?” Lin asked.Although she had said some awful things to Xyla earlier, she didn’t mind because she was quite a good player.Xyla immediately responded. “Okay, sure.”“Thank you, Xyla.
