"Did you know, when my mom was pregnant of me, she was also craving for melon." Lu Mello said, smiling and was happily feeding s.h.i.+ Enxi with the melon that was sliced into small pieces.

"Really? Now that I think of it, 'Mello' is a unique name. Don't tell me that it came from the name 'melon'?"

"Yeah, I preferred being called that way since I was little. It's a good thing that my name was changed. You wouldn't believe what my mom tried to name me."

s.h.i.+ Enxi grinned, "Is it Xiao Gua (Little Melon)?"

It wasn't hard for s.h.i.+ Enxi to guess it since she thought that Xia Meilin might have named him after the fruit.

Lu Mello's ears went red in embarra.s.sment when he heard that name. "Don't you dare mention that name."

It was fine if he was still a kid but he's all grown up now and that name didn't fit his manly side at all!

"So you're supposed to be Lu Gua, eh?" s.h.i.+ Enxi teased. "Xiao Gua sounds adorable tho. Maybe I should call you that way starting from now on?"

"Enxi..." Lu Mello's face was dark. He shouldn't have told her that his mother named him after a fruit. 

She laughed lightly, "I'm just kidding~ You're no more little Melon. You're a big Melon now!"

Lu Mello sighed. He placed the piece of fruit in her mouth to stop her from talking.

s.h.i.+ Enxi was enjoying the fruit and in the middle of it, she started feeling unwell. She covered her mouth and rushed to the bathroom to throw everything out.

Lu Mello went to her side and rubbed her back. It was normal for pregnant women to have this kind of symptoms. Lu Mello has seen his mother this way whenever she was pregnant but he still couldn't help but get worried about his wife's health.

After gargling and cleaning her mouth, s.h.i.+ Enxi went back to their bed. "I really hate this... Every day it's always like this."

"It will only be for a few months."

s.h.i.+ Enxi was sitting and resting her back on the headrest, her hand was on her tummy.

"I honestly don't want to carry this child right now." She didn't want to hide her real feelings from her husband so she decided to be honest with him. "It's not too late to... you know, abo-"

"No." Lu Mello interrupted her, not wanting to hear the word that she was about to say. He sat beside her and held her hand. "I know that you are not ready to have our child but you can't think of doing that, Xi'er. This is our child, it has already a life and he or she is growing inside you."

s.h.i.+ Enxi lowered her head. Even if that was the case, she didn't want to be a mother yet. "We can always have another child..."

"But we can never have this child again. Every child that will be formed is different, they're not the same, Xi'er. If you aborted this child, it doesn't mean that he will come back once you get pregnant again. Even if you are not prepared, we have to take responsibility for forming this child. I will take care of you and the child, Enxi... So, please... Don't hate our child..." He held her hand tight and s.h.i.+ Enxi could feel how much he wanted to keep the child.

She knew that he will surely have this kind of reaction that was why she wasn't planning on telling him about her pregnancy back then but because of the situation they had, she ended up telling him to force him to stay.

She knew that Lu Mello would be able to convince her to keep the child if she told him about it. She was still afraid but at least, she wouldn't be alone, right? Lu Mello was going to be there.

"Alright..." She let go of his hand and decided to lie down. "We're keeping this child."

Lu Mello sighed in relief. He pulled the blanket until her shoulders. He reached out and stroked her hair gently, the black roots of her hair were growing long. It would only be a matter of time before her blonde hair would be gone.

"Xi'er, you should grow your black hair."

"I will grow it long once Xiao Yao will receive a Best Actress award."

"When will that be?"

"Around next year... That is if my calculation is correct."

"That long?" He gave out a long sigh. "By the way, how's your brother?" 

"I've been trying to contact him for a while now but it's not working. Ever since he left me in his place, I haven't seen him at all." s.h.i.+ Enxi said worriedly. "He's not even going to his work when I tried to contact his a.s.sistant. If this goes on, I have to take his place temporarily."

"Have you told him that about Weichun?"

She nodded, "I sent him a message, telling him that Weichun is not dead and that the body found wasn't hers. I think he's looking for her. He's madly in love with your sister so he probably can't sit still."

She turned to him, "Have you found out about her whereabouts?"

If there was something, he would probably go to his sister's side already. "Nothing. My dad is also working, searching for the man who tried to kill her. From what I got, I have only found out the ones after Weichun is a team. They are an organized team and they plan their moves carefully. One of them has his ways of hacking the surveillance cameras and the team leader, as usual, is the brain of their team. Dad has a hard time looking for them."

"Eh? Even uncle Yifeng has a hard time searching?"

He nodded a bit, "Yes. If they are this good, this is probably not their first. They are an experienced group, it won't be easy to look for them."

"Have you tried contacting sister Bingbing? Maybe she could help?"

"Dad is currently working with her. Even I asked my cousin Qinqing for help. I can't believe that there's someone who could hide this well. It also could be possible that they are out of town now."

"Guess we only have to set a mousetrap." s.h.i.+ Enxi suggested.

"What do you mean?"

"If they were after Weichun, I'm pretty sure they have a few people on their list. If we got a hold of that list, we will be able to catch them in their next attack."

"I have thought of that too... It's just... I don't know what kind of reason they have to attack my sister. What are their intentions? They could be working for someone that dislikes Weichun too. If that's the case,  it will really be hard to find them." Lu Mello has been working on the case for days. The suspects were careful enough not to leave any evidence and they even tampered the nearby surveillance cameras so he really was clueless at what kind of people the suspects were.
