Chapter 1057: Lin Nuan’s Due Date Was in October
On the large bed in the bedroom, Tuan Tuan sat between Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an, holding his little picture book as he clumsily read a bedtime story to Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an.
Lin Nuan said that getting Tuan Tuan to read the picture book to them would train his speaking skills.
Later, the little fellow started falling left and right as he read on, then fell asleep completely in the midst of reading the bedtime story to them…
Lin Nuan leaned sideways against the head of the bed and covered Tuan Tuan properly with a blanket, planting a kiss on his face and saying softly to Fu Huai’an,
Regardless of boy or girl, I hope the child has a lively personality so that when the two kids play together, Tuan Tuan will become more lively too.


Whatever you say!
Fu Huai’an kissed Lin Nuan’s forehead.
Let’s sleep!

When a person lived in bliss, the days would seem to just fly by. Lin Nuan was thin, so it was only six months into her pregnancy that her tummy began to show. This made Song Yao, whose pregnancy was visible just four months in, incredibly envious.
After becoming pregnant, Lin Nuan feared feeling hot and would often suffer from nosebleeds due to a heaty constitution. July was already a scorching month. Even at night… it felt like even the winds carried a warm heat.
Lin Nuan didn’t dare stay in an air-conditioned room all day and not go out at all. Every afternoon, after going out for a walk with Tuan Tuan and Fu Huai’an, she would return all drenched in sweat.
Since Lin Nuan got pregnant, Fu Huai’an and Cen Mo didn’t allow her to eat some junk foods. But the weird thing was, Lin Nuan, who was never interested in junk foods in the past, started craving the taste of KFC after getting pregnant!
There were several times when Lin Nuan couldn’t resist the temptation and asked the servants to go out and buy fried chicken drumsticks from KFC for her. But before she got down to eating it, she was discovered by the vigilant Cen Mo and Tuan Tuan!
Later, Fu Huai’an discovered, Tuan Tuan discovered… and Cen Mo discovered…
Anyway, every time Lin Nuan bought KFC, she never once got to actually taste it.
Humans tended to desire what they couldn’t obtain the most. The more she was carefully watched, the more Lin Nuan wanted to eat it. By the time she was seven months pregnant, she was so hungry for it that she couldn’t even bear to hear someone mention it.
Under Lin Nuan’s urging, Fang Yan had started recording
Talking with Lin Nuan
and
After Heroes
on an expedited schedule…
Lin Nuan wanted to complete all the work before she was nine months pregnant. From then on, she wanted to stay at home and rest well, stopping all work until 100 days after she finished giving birth—after her postpartum confinement was over.
Fang Yan was afraid that Lin Nuan wouldn’t be able to take the intensity of the workload, but Lin Nuan secretly told Fang Yan that coming out to record a show was much more comfortable than staying home and being forced to go out for a walk with Tuan Tuan and Fu Huai’an. Fang Yan wasn’t sure whether to laugh or cry after hearing this.
Later, Fang Yan heard Lin Nuan recount how much she craved KFC, but her family didn’t allow her to eat it. Fang Yan, who had been pregnant before, could empathize. She was full of sympathy for Lin Nuan…
Back then, when Fang Yan was pregnant, Fang Yan’s mother was the one who took care of her. Her mother also didn’t allow Fang Yan to eat this and that. When Fang Yan was pregnant, she craved instant noodles, but Fang Yan’s mother said it was junk food and simply refused to let Fang Yan eat it.
Later, Fang Yan snuck into the kitchen like a thief in the dead of the night after everyone fell asleep to cook herself a bowl of instant noodles. She felt so satisfied that it gave her the urge to cry. It was like she had obtained the world.
Fang Yan, whose heart ached for Lin Nuan, asked her assistant to go out and buy a KFC family bucket before the show started.
Seeing Mu Taotao preparing to help Lin Nuan apply lipstick, Fang Yan coughed softly and said,
Wait…

Holding a lip brush in her hands, Mu Taotao said,
Sister Yan, this lipstick is safe for pregnant women, no problem!


I know! You wait!

Fang Yan went out and brought back a family bucket. Before she opened the bag, Lin Nuan could smell the aroma of the food. She immediately got up and walked towards the coffee table.
Sister Yan, what is this!

Fang Yan retrieved the family bucket from the bag and sighed.
Eat it quickly! I’ll keep a lookout for you outside the room! Don’t eat too much! Tao Tao… help your Sister Nuan apply lipstick after she’s done eating!

Mu Taotao was speechless.
Her lady boss was about to start eating the family bucket right before her eyes! Should she report this to her boss in secret?

Thanks, Sister Yan!
Lin Nuan beamed.

Tao Tao… come over and eat with me!
Lin Nuan sat down and invited Mu Taotao to join her.
Mu Taotao thought about it, then decided to forget it because her lady boss seemed quite pitiful. Wasn’t it just eating a family bucket? Eating such a thing once in a blue moon shouldn’t be of much harm to the baby!
Hence, Mu Taotao happily set down the lip brush in her hands and wiped her hands with a wet tissue before jogging over to join Lin Nuan.
Since she owed her a favor…
Since Mu Taotao joined Lin Nuan in eating the family bucket, she wasn’t planning on reporting it to Fu Huai’an.
Because of Lin Nuan’s pregnancy, the production crews of the two shows took extra good care of her, so Lin Nuan didn’t have to exert much effort during the filming.
After she was done recording the shows, Fang Yan told Lin Nuan a piece of good news. Lin Nuan’s dedicated production crew would be fully assembled by the time Lin Nuan finished giving birth and was done with her postpartum confinement. Each member was a top talent in their respective fields in this industry, with good reviews to boot.
Also, Fang Yan showed Lin Nuan a few TV drama scripts and movie scripts, all of which were either guest roles or show host roles, and they were pretty positive.
Fang Yan had always been cautious, so these scripts were carefully picked before being presented to Lin Nuan.

There’s no hurry regarding these scripts. These basically only start after you’re done with your postpartum confinement… or even 100 days past your pregnancy! You can look through them and pick what you like!
Fang Yan said.
Lin Nuan nodded and promised Fang Yan that she would slowly look at them when she got home.
Lin Nuan was, after all, a minor guest role in these offers, so they didn’t invoke much emotion in her…
On the contrary, the heavily pregnant Song Yao was really tempted when she saw the script for
The Secret of the Desk.
She prompted Lin Nuan to ask Fang Yan to see if the director had decided on who to cast for the female lead role.
This was a TV drama based on a novel. Fang Yan had hoped Lin Nuan would guest-role as the female lead’s older sister…
The female lead was a university student in her freshman year. Song Yao was born pretty to begin with, and she was suitable for a range of characters as well. With her hair bunched up in two ponytails, one would believe she was a senior high student.
Fang Yan said that the female lead role wasn’t decided upon yet, but they had begun casting. She thought about it and said to Song Yao,
If Ms. Song can consider joining our agency, then I’ll do my best to help you obtain this role!

Song Yao raised an eyebrow and turned sideways to look at Lin Nuan. She winked at Lin Nuan, as if to tell her that her manager was indeed capable…
After terminating her contract with her agency under Cen Mo’s assistance, Song Yao hadn’t signed a contract with any agency, so she readily agreed.
Song Yao had a special affection for this novel in her younger days, so she really wanted to act in this role.
Very quickly, Fang Yan settled this matter and replied to Song Yao, signing a contract with her.
Song Yao’s due date was in September, whereas Lin Nuan’s due date was in October. That meant they would be giving birth pretty soon.
