Chapter 1018: Chapter 1022: The Ultimate Realm of Favoritism Chapter 1018: Chapter 1022: The Ultimate Realm of Favoritism Fang Yao was somewhat skeptical and retorted, “Xiao Mi is pregnant?”

“Yes, yes,” Qiao Zui laughed joyfully and proudly, “Brother Yao, I’m going to be a dad, and you’re going to be an uncle! Aren’t Xiao Mi and I amazing?”

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while before a gritted response came through, “If you weren’t my best friend, I’d seriously consider castrating you, you beast!”

“…” Qiao Zui was stunned by the scolding, “Brother Yao, have you been cursed? Aren’t you happy that Xiao Mi is pregnant?”

“Happy!” Fang Yao said, his happiness obviously forced and through gritted teeth: “My little sister is so young, and you got her pregnant before she even graduated from college!”

“Uh…” Qiao Zui felt a bit guilty and glanced at Mi Sheng, “Really?… Brother Yao, don’t worry, I promise to take good care of Xiao Mi. If I let her suffer the slightest grievance, you can train me as harshly as a new recruit!”

What else could Fang Yao say?

Although he felt that his sister was too young to be pregnant, a pregnancy was still a happy occasion.

Apart from feeling sorry that his little sister was pregnant at such a young age and hadn’t had the chance to experience the freedom of her most beautiful years before becoming a soon-to-be mother, he also felt joy and happiness for the new life that was about to arrive.

“I’m coming back right now,” Fang Yao said. “Ask Xiao Mi if there’s anything she wants to eat, I’ll bring it back for her.”

“You tell her yourself!” Qiao Zui handed the phone to Mi Sheng.

When Mi Sheng took the phone, she called out, “Brother.”

Fang Yao fell silent for a moment, then couldn’t help but ask, “Do you really want to be a mom now?”

“I do, really,” Mi Sheng placed her hand on her lower belly, her expression softened more than usual, her eyes brimming with joy and anticipation for her future life: “Brother, I have you, Ah Zui, Grandpa, and my little uncles and aunts, and now I have the baby. I feel incredibly, incredibly blessed–more than I ever dared to hope for.”

“That’s good,” Fang Yao breathed a sigh of relief, his tone much gentler than when he was speaking with Qiao Zui: “Is there anything you want to eat that I can bring back for you?”

“No,” Mi Sheng smiled, lips pursed. “The baby is still small, hasn’t started giving me cravings yet. Just be careful on your way back, Brother.”

After hanging up, Mi Sheng handed the phone back to Qiao Zui.

Qiao Zui took the phone, and while holding her hand, he looked into her eyes and earnestly said, “Xiao Mi, I will treat you and the baby well, for our entire lives.”

Mi Sheng nodded, lips pursed with a smile, “Yeah, I believe you.”

“Xiao Mi, rest assured, the men of the Gu Family are reliable,” Senior Master Gu said cheerfully, “Our men are responsible–once they choose someone, it’s for a lifetime. Xiao Qiao will surely treat you well. Just focus on your pregnancy without worries.”

“Yes, I know, thank you Grandpa,” Mi Sheng looked at the old man with a sweet smile. “Ah Zui is the best man I’ve ever met, and the Gu Family is the best family I’ve seen. I love Ah Zui, and I love Grandpa and my little uncles and aunts. Meeting you all is the greatest luck of my life!”

Ye Xingbei: “…”

She felt quite upturned today.

Not only did Mi Sheng announce her pregnancy, but she was also sweet as honey, making her seem a bit… inadequate?

“Very good, very good,” Senior Master Gu laughed, nodding repeatedly, then suddenly looked at her: “The master was right, Beibei is our family’s lucky star. Ever since Beibei married into our family, one good thing after another has happened. All thanks to our Beibei.”
