Chapter 552: Girl's Party
Her eyes welled up with tears of gratitude, she realized that no one had ever treated her so well, other than her parents who left her all alone in this cruel world. Meeting Han Zihao filled the void in her life and brought immense happiness and love into her world.
Despite her strong and confident demeanor while facing the world, Xu Nuan couldn\'t help but reveal her vulnerable and affectionate side when she was with Han Zihao. With him, she felt like a sweet, pampered wife, completely enveloped in his love and care.
Turning to him, she wrapped her arms around his waist, feeling overwhelmed with emotions. "Zi, what am I going to do? I think I\'m falling in love with you even more. That\'s not good," she said, using the affectionate nickname she had given him, and her voice slightly quivered with tears.
It was such a joyful moment, yet she couldn\'t help but feel emotional and teary-eyed, completely touched by his love and thoughtfulness. Her heart swelled with love for him, and she cherished the deep connection they shared, knowing that he was the one who brought happiness and completeness to her life.
She couldn\'t believe that it had taken her an entire lifetime to discover the man who had been in love with her for eternity.
With a smile on his face, Han Zihao looked at Xu Nuan and gently grabbed her cheeks before giving her a passionate kiss, instantly stopping her tears. Pulling back, he playfully nudged her nose and lovingly said, "You\'re right. It\'s not just good; it\'s the best thing that could ever happen to me." He wrapped his arms around her, sharing his warmth and love.
To him, all the thoughtful gestures and plans were insignificant compared to the happiness and love Xu Nuan brought into his life. Before meeting her, he had been engulfed in loneliness, but she had filled his world with brightness and joy.
He knew that building a family with her was his greatest joy and responsibility, and he was determined to make her feel like the cherished queen she was every single day. He was deeply grateful for her presence in his life, and he vowed to make every moment together as special and wonderful as possible.

Two months later.
Xu Nuan looked completely at ease as she settled onto the couch, wearing a loose, beautiful maternity dress adorned with a delightful floral print. Her hair was gently tied in a loose bun, and she couldn\'t help but notice the subtle swelling in her arms and legs.
Nevertheless, Xu Nuan looked as beautiful as ever, with the glow of an expectant mom adding an extra touch of elegance and radiance to her appearance.
Xu Nuan found comfort in resting her legs on the glass table while cradling a cushion on her lap and savoring a generous bowl of buttered popcorn. She seemed thoroughly immersed and content, enjoying her time watching TV.
While Xu Nuan was watching tv in the living room and enjoying her relaxing time, Luo Dan was busy in the kitchen, preparing the noodles that she was strongly craving. Meanwhile, Jia Fei, the self-proclaimed lazy bum, was completely engrossed in her phone, playing games with such intense focus as if her life depended on it.
Today, with the company of Luo Dan and Jia Fei, Xu Nuan was not alone and having a great time with her friends around. Under the guise of taking care of her, the three friends were secretly planning a girls\' pajama party.
With Xu Nuan approaching labor, everyone was in a state of panic, reluctant to leave her side even for a moment. With only a few days left until her ninth month, she could go into delivery at any moment, causing Han Zihao and the entire family to be in a frenzy.
He was prepared to put aside all of his work to be by her side throughout the entire birthing process. Despite the fact that she would be the one going into labor and experiencing the pain, he seemed to be even more worried than she was.
However, as the President of Han Corporations, he also had responsibilities to attend to. Witnessing how his work was being affected because of her condition, she couldn\'t bear it any longer. Somehow, she managed to convince him to go to work, assuring him that she would be fine on her own.
Worried about leaving her home alone, Han Zihao had asked Grandmother Han to take care of her in his absence. That\'s why, for the past few days, Grandmother Han and Cheng Zixian have been coming home regularly to look after her. Whenever they visit, they bring delicious food for her, and she devours it without any hesitation.
Now, the Han Family feels more like a real family to her. Grandmother Han treats her so well that even her grandfather never pampered her this much when she was younger. It genuinely feels as if she has become an integral part of this loving and caring family.
However, today, Xu Nuan insisted that they stay at home and rest instead of coming over to take care of her.
Since Han Zihao had an urgent two-day business trip, Luo Dan and Jia Fei offered to come over and look after her, even staying for the night. Grandmother Han and Cheng Zixian agreed to her suggestion and also decided to give the kids some alone time to relax and enjoy each other\'s company.
That\'s how they managed to arrange this girls\' party, filled with lots of delicious food and lively banter.

Xu Nuan glanced at Jia Fei who was playing games with much concentration, and sighed, "Are you here to keep me company or to break the record for the longest time spent playing games on your mobile?" She asked teasingly.
Jia Fei shrugged, not bothered by the remark, and responded playfully, "Well, the free noodles were tempting, what can I say?"
Rolling her eyes in mock exasperation, Xu Nuan said, "You\'re lucky you\'re my friend. Otherwise, I\'d have kicked you out already."
Jia Fei chuckled mischievously and playfully teased Xu Nuan about the past, "Who is your friend? We are love rivals. Did you forget about how ruthlessly you dumped my boyfriend before?"
Xu Nuan defended herself, "I didn\'t dump him! I just helped you two get together. You should thank me!"
Their banter continued, and as they exchanged playful jabs, Luo Dan, who was diligently working in the kitchen, let out a tired sigh, remarking, "These two can never grow up."
She had initially come to take care of Xu Nuan during her approaching labor, but it seemed like she ended up being the caregiver for these two friends who were behaving like children.
