Daniel took a sip of his coffee, nearly choking on it. He widened his eyes, staring at Kane, whose mouth was wide open enough to fit an entire egg.

"Are you kidding me? When did you tie the knot?"

"And here I thought we were best buds! You get married and don't even bother inviting me to the wedding, and now not even a heads-up?" Daniel exclaimed with a mix of shock and irritation. Regardless of their long-standing friendship since kindergarten, Kane had managed to keep his marriage under wraps, making Daniel feel somewhat dismissed.

Seemingly unfazed by Daniel's reaction, Kane justified himself, "If I had known, I wouldn't have bothered following your advice to pull out of the film. I should've let you invest in the movie and let your wife take the lead role."

Daniel muttered under his breath, expressing his discontent, "Should've just let it be and not listened to you, withdrawn my funds from this film. I would let you invest in another film and choose your wife starring in it."

    Kane's hair-drying motion halted, and a perplexed expression crossed his face. Why did Lani's reaction differ from what Daniel had anticipated?"Why are you just standing there? Hurry up, put some clothes on; you'll catch a cold if you stay like this," Lani urged, her eyebrows slightly furrowed. She quickly grabbed a set of clean clothes and pushed them toward Kane, still concerned, then gestured towards the bathroom.Kane stood there, dazed, as Lani urged him. With a slight frown, he reluctantly took the clothes and started putting them on, the shock not dissipating.Why did Lani act like that? Is he doing something wrong?The first time, he intended to use his well-built physique to seduce Lani, and it ended like this?Although Kane felt disheartened, he had no other choice. He sighed deeply and headed to the kitchen to prepare their usual dinner. After all, Lani enjoyed his cooking, considering it a culinary art capable of captivating her."Tomorrow, I have to shoot an advertisemen

    Lani truly wanted to decline but couldn't find a suitable reason. After all, they were both actors, and Kazz was much more famous than she was. Lani felt the need to act with respect. Moreover, Kazz had mentioned that the entire crew would be going, so she couldn't refuse.With a sigh, Lani agreed and accompanied Aurora to join Kazz. Kazz was delighted that his plan was working, deliberately slowing down to walk shoulder-to-shoulder with Lani.Since meeting Lani, Kazz had been captivated by her beauty and cold, noble demeanor. Furthermore, Lani's calm and distant attitude during the commercial shoot only increased Kazz's interest.Determined to pursue Lani and make her his new girlfriend, Kazz was in high spirits.On the way to the restaurant, Kane sent a message asking if Lani had finished work and had eaten yet. Lani casually replied that she was on her way to have dinner with colleagues, and she sent Kane the address before leaning back in her seat to rest.Everyone arrived at the

    On the other side,Kane massaged his wrist lazily, walking forward with an expression void of any excess emotion as if he hadn't just angrily punched someone."Why did you punch him just now? Do you and him have some grudge from the past?"Ryan, the type who enjoyed gossip, quickly approached to inquire, seemingly finding Kane's sudden emotional outburst quite interesting. After all, since Kane had taken Lani as his secretary, he had consistently worn a cold, emotionless face, robotic and indifferent. Today, the robot unexpectedly raised a hand to strike someone, a rare occurrence.But Kane wasn't in the mood for words. His demeanor was not particularly good, and he continued to massage his wrist, speaking deliberately."Just didn't like the look of him. Itchy hands."Ryan was about to say something more when he suddenly halted, unsure how to respond to Kane's unusual attitude. The two continued walking towards the car, returning to the company to get back to work.By the afternoon, L

    In another location, the atmosphere maintained an eerie silence since MC and Lani bid farewell to their audience and ended the live stream.Ryan stealthily observed Kane, swallowing nervously, silently offering an explanation."It seems the money you deposited for donating to Lani must wait until her next livestream to be utilized; she has already concluded today's session."Ryan thought witnessing Kane throw a punch earlier was shock enough, but little did he expect his boss to add another layer of surprise.This afternoon, engrossed in work, Ryan received a call from Kane, urgently summoning him to his office. Kane didn't even wait for his laptop to shut down before rushing in, anticipating an urgent contract or project. To his surprise, Kane was sitting on the desk, intently watching a live stream of some celebrity on an iPad, asking with grave seriousness, "Do you know how to donate on a livestream?"Upon inquiry, it turned out that after watching Lani's livestream, Kane found Kaz

    The next day, Lani was roused early by a call from Aurora, reluctantly leaving her bed to prepare for the day's shoot at the studio. When Lani sat up, Kane enveloped her in a gentle embrace, his fingers softly running through her hair."Do you have to go to work already?" he asked.Today, Lani had to wake up earlier than usual for the game show shoot, and she wasn't quite as alert. She nodded in a daze, giving Kane a light kiss before getting up and heading to the bathroom to brush her teeth.Taking her time changing clothes, which took an extra fifteen minutes, Lani finally stepped out the door and settled into her familiar car."Good morning, Aurora," she greeted.Before Lani could say more, she stifled a yawn, expressing her dissatisfaction with the early morning shoot. Aurora greeted her back and handed her a warm sandwich. The car was en route to the small countryside where the filming was taking place, and with plenty of time on the journey, Aurora seized the opportunity to chat

    After forming a team, the trio's mission was to till the soil for vegetable cultivation. For a group with two girls, this task proved exceptionally challenging, prompting a wave of sympathy from fans of both."Poor Hebe. Her delicate, youthful skin – I wonder if that wooden hoe will leave any scratches on her hands?""Lani, on the other hand, with her slender figure, must be struggling with the assigned task. The program organizers truly have given them an authentic taste of rural life.""But Daisy and Amory's team isn't faring any better. They have to split firewood to fuel the cooking fire for five people. In this day and age, using a traditional stove seems almost archaic. My parents might not have even used one."Indeed, the challenges faced by Lani's team were formidable, but the other group wasn't faring any differently. The current comments expressed astonishment at the program's cruelty, arranging grueling tasks for the participants.Upon reaching the task site, Kazuma, recogn

    After finishing the soil tilling, they worked together to sow the seeds. Kazuma took charge of watering at the back, while Lani and Hebe were responsible for sowing the seeds at the front.During the work, Hebe always intentionally stood next to Lani, using a soft voice to make teasing remarks."Didn't expect to run into you here. What a bad luck. Earlier, you deliberately agreed to work with Kazuma and stood near him, leaving me alone in a corner. Was that on purpose?""You wicked person, no wonder Amory finds you annoying."Hebe wanted to use provocative words to make Lani angry, but it was ineffective. Lani just raised an indifferent eyebrow, uttered a nonchalant "hmm," and continued focusing on sowing the seeds."Are you deaf? Do you want to hear what your ex-boyfriend has to say about you? Amory has said a lot.""He said you only know how to pretend to be noble, always acting superior to others, making people nauseous.""He also said your personality is blander than plain water,

    After a passionate kiss, Kane held Lani for a while before heading to the bathroom for a quick shower. He then descended to the kitchen to prepare dinner. Although Lani wanted to lend a hand in the kitchen, the sweet memory of the lingering kiss and the intimate atmosphere from moments ago made her shy.She sat on the sofa, pretending to be at ease while watching a movie. "Let's eat," Kane announced.While Lani was engrossed in the TV, Kane suddenly appeared from behind, wrapping his arms around her. His warm breath, carrying a faint scent of mint, enveloped Lani, creating a familiar and pleasant aroma."Do you need me to carry you?" Kane whispered into Lani's ear, causing her face to blush rapidly. Lani's response was hesitant, reflecting the inner turmoil she was experiencing."No, it's not necessary. I can manage on my own," Lani stammered.Despite sensing Lani's hesitation, Kane playfully teased her. Without warning, he scooped her up and carried her towards the kitchen, each step

    Aurora drove Lani back home. On the way, she received a call from Ryan. His voice was urgent as he explained that he had forgotten an important document at home and needed it for a meeting at the company. He asked if Aurora could conveniently swing by his place, pick up the document, and bring it to the office. Ryan's urgent tone worried Aurora, but she reassured him. "Don't worry. Just wait for me a moment. I'll drive to your place right away." Although aware of what was happening, Lani still pretended to be surprised. She looked at Aurora's worried face and asked, "What's wrong? Does Ryan have something urgent at the company?" Aurora nodded, explaining briefly, "Ryan forgot an important document at home. I'll take you home first. Then I'll drive to Ryan's place to bring him the document." Lani nodded, comforting Aurora. "It's okay. Stay calm. Ryan's work is more important. You drive to his place first." Aurora nodded. Along the way, Lani would occasionally glance at Aurora. He

    The next day,Lani went shopping with Aurora. Her belly had grown, causing her previous clothes, especially the fitted dresses that accentuated her curves, to no longer fit comfortably. So, she strolled through the mall with Aurora to buy some looser-fitting dresses to wear at home."Hey, do you think I need to buy clothes for my dear daughter in advance?" Lani gestured towards the store across the street. "There's a children's clothing store over there that has beautiful clothes. I want to buy some for my daughter."Aurora nodded. "Sure, let's go. I also want to buy a few dresses for my goddaughter."Lani and Aurora enjoyed their shopping spree, picking out quite a few outfits for the newborn baby girl. It will ship to Lani's house.Lani looked excitedly at the staff who was wrapping the tiny clothes in a delicate box."They're so beautiful. I'm sure my daughter will love them."Rubbing her belly, Lani smiled as if she were talking to the baby. "My little Ice Cream, do you like these

    When it came to naming their child, Kane felt helpless with Lani. She always insisted she was carrying a daughter, citing her intuition as always correct.So from time to time, Lani would come up with a few names for her daughter and then ask Kane what he thought of them.It wasn't the first time Kane looked helplessly at Lani."How can you be so sure you're having a girl?" he asked.Lani mysteriously smiled. "That's a mother's intuition.""But you didn't answer me, did you? How do you feel about the name Ice Cream? Or maybe we should name our daughter Strawberry?"Lani wanted to give her child this name for a simple reason. She loved ice cream, especially strawberry ice cream. Yet during the early months of pregnancy, Kane didn't allow her to eat ice cream, so she wanted to name her child Ice Cream as an expression of her fondness.Lani seemed to like this name, giggling as she rubbed her belly. She was pregnant three months along. It had grown a little larger, and she rubbed it exci

    After their conversation, Kane urged Lani to have breakfast. He prepared a table full of diverse dishes for her, including chicken congee, salad, egg sandwiches, and milk. Lani looked at the spread in amazement."I won't be able to eat all of this. It's too much," Lani remarked.Kane gently stroked her head."It's okay. Eat as much as you want. You haven't been eating much lately due to morning sickness, so I cooked dishes to help you eat more."The three of them sat down for breakfast. And Kane kept adding more food to Lani's plate."Have another piece of sausage. It's delicious.""The salad is also tasty, with a light and refreshing flavor. Can you eat a bit more?""Do you want some more congee? I'll get you a little more. The chicken is cooked so tenderly; it tastes amazing."Lani ate until she was comfortably full, rubbing her belly."It's all because of you. I'm so full I can't get up anymore," Lani joked.Kane chuckled, lifting Lani carefully and leading her to the living room.

    Lani thought that compared to her, Kane was calmer and more composed about her pregnancy. He acted cautiously, protecting and caring for her well, always rational and reliable. But it seemed that Lani was somewhat misunderstanding. Compared to her, Kane sometimes seemed more childish.For example, at present.After dinner, they sat on the sofa and watched a movie. Roger called. He recounted the busy past few months abroad working on a successful collaborative project and was now back in town.Kane turned on the speaker. So Lani could hear Roger's excited voice."Haven't seen you in a few months, how about going out for drinks? Me, Leo, and Ryan will be there. Come here for some fun."Kane made a noise of surprise, asking, "Huh? What? Are you congratulating me?""You know I'm about to become a father? How could you know that?""Yeah, that's right. Lani's been pregnant for two months now."Not only was Roger shocked on the other end of the line, but Lani was also surprised. She rubbed h

    The days of rest for Lani have arrived. Compared to her, Kane seems even more tense.Lani sleeps until noon, waking up in Kane's embrace. Kane will smile at her, gently rubbing her belly."Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere? Are you tired?" he would ask.Lani has explained many times.She's not even two months pregnant yet.And her belly is still flat as usual. But Kane enjoys touching Lani's belly. He claims he can feel the baby growing inside her when he touches it.Lani is sure this is just Kane's imagination, but she doesn't have the heart to disillusion him and make him sad.She shakes her head and reassures him that she's fine.Kane helps her sit up, carefully takes her hand, and leads her off the bed, then guides her into the bathroom to brush her teeth.Kane hands her a cup of warm water, helping her get toothpaste and massaging her scalp."I'll go downstairs to make breakfast for you. Come down when you're brushing," Kane says.Lani nods drowsily.As she descends the stairs,

    The female doctor emerged with the results. Though the scene mirrored what had happened a few minutes ago, the emotions of the three were now quite different.They anxiously watched the doctor, who seemed to want to smile. She looked kindly at Lani."Congratulations. You're six weeks pregnant," The doctor said.Lani's mind was sluggish. The chaotic sounds swirling around her left her bewildered. She stared blankly at the doctor, unable to react. Her lips moved as if wanting to say something, but no words came out.Sensing Lani's daze, the doctor approached and placed the result paper into her hand."Rest well and avoid high-intensity work like you've been doing," the doctor advised, glancing at Aurora and Kane sitting nearby."You two are Lani's husband and close friend, right? Take good care of her. The first few months of pregnancy are crucial. She needs plenty of rest, a balanced diet, and should avoid..."The doctor proceeded to give a series of instructions for pregnant women. Au

    In the following days, Lani must balance shooting her film and meeting Ryan to plan their engagement. Despite her busy schedule, Lani remained cheerful and relaxed.After finishing a scene and resting in the dressing room, Lani would look at Aurora, who was giggling mischievously."What's so funny? Why are you laughing so happily?" Aurora asked, surprised, as she touched Lani's face, her expression dreamy."It's a secret," Lani replied mysteriously.Aurora thought Lani's laughter might be due to stress from filming, so she didn't pay too much attention to it.Then, one day, while filming, Lani suddenly raised her hand to signal a break and rushed into the restroom to vomit.Concerned, Aurora followed her and found Lani standing in the restroom, exhausted, with her head hanging over the toilet but unable to vomit anything. Aurora rubbed Lani's back to make her feel more comfortable."What's wrong? Are you feeling very uncomfortable?" Aurora asked anxiously."I don't know what's happeni

    Lani relaxed and enjoyed herself in the following days until she received a phone call from Ryan."Lani, could you help me with something?" Ryan's voice sounded nervous and anxious, making Lani tense up. She asked in surprise, "What's going on?"Ryan hesitated for a while, not knowing where to start. He sounded flustered. "It's a long story. I can't explain it in a few sentences. Can you meet me? Let's meet at the coffee shop near your house!""And also, please keep it a secret from Aurora. Don't let her know we're meeting," Ryan added.Lani agreed, and Ryan said they would meet in an hour.After hanging up, Lani looked puzzled and asked Kane. He was sitting beside her, "What's going on? Ryan sounded very serious."Kane stroked Lani's hair and calmly looked at her. "I guess Ryan wants you to help him plan a proposal to Aurora."Kane conveyed a lot with just a short sentence. And Lani understood.She exclaimed, realizing that was why Ryan had asked her not to let Aurora know about the
