Such a Rude and Noisy Woman novel Chapter 201

She had almost reached the door when Hiram called out. She turned and looked at him.

"What's up?" she asked.

Hiram couldn't help laughing. Beckoning her closer, he said, "I heard that the most excellent part of the proposal was prepared by you."

"Not exactly. A few other colleagues also helped, and Daniel revised it after we submitted it to him. Otherwise, it's impossible for a newcomer like me to work out such an amazing proposal, " Rachel answered honestly.

"Anyway, you played a critical role. I remember how you had advised us about the construction of B section when we were in Cliff Mountain. I've told the engineer to keep your advice in the plan." With that, Hiram pulled Rachel onto his lap.

"We're in the meeting room, " Rachel protested, frowning at him and wondering why he had become so flirtatious recently. He'd never been intimate with her inside the office building before, except in his suite.

Hiram smiled. He pinched her face and said, "It's time for lunch, everyone else has gone to the canteen. Besides, you're my wife, why should we be so cautious in our own company?"

"Huh? It's already lunch time? Shall we go for lunch?" Rachel asked as she stood up, trying to pull him up.

Since the auction, she'd avoided going to the staff canteen. Instead, she had Hiram's personal chef cook for her.

She was not worried about her team spreading rumors about her, because she had been acquainted with them for a long time. But when it came to facing the rest of the company staff, it would be a different matter. She didn't want to go to the canteen and hear people talking about her, it would only affect her mood and appetite.

"You little chowhound..." Hiram smiled, then he stood up from his seat and allowed himself to be led out by her.

When they were outside, he turned his gaze to her belly and asked, "Honey, is your period coming soon?"

She tried to recall her period cycle.

"Yes, it will come in two days. Wow. How do you remember it so well?" Rachel looked at him, wondering why a man like him remembered such kind of things so precisely.

"If your period doesn't come in a few days, would that mean that you might be pregnant?" he asked.

Rachel couldn't help laughing. She shook off his hand and teased him, "You're acting like my mom! I remember you saying that you don't want a baby soon. Why did you change your mind suddenly?"

An imperceptible look crossed his eyes for a moment, and then he smiled gently. "I told you, I want a daughter. Everyone says that daughters are closer to their fathers. And we'll have a baby sooner or later, right? Anyway, we still have a long way to go in our lives."

"But having a baby isn't like planting vegetables. It's not like as long as a seed is planted in the field, it will bloom and bear fruits. There's nothing I can do!" Rachel said resignedly. 'Should I go to a hospital for a physical examination?' she thought.

'Since Hiram has no fertility problems, could the reason I haven't conceived yet be that I have fertility problems?'

This question had been haunting her mind for weeks. She was absent-minded throughout lunch, and felt full after eating just half a bowl of rice.

"Hiram, if I have any physical problems, and it turns out I can't conceive a baby, will your mom still agree to let us be together?" Rachel asked anxiously.

Hiram put down the chopsticks and answered, "Why are you worrying about such things? There's nothing wrong. We've been together for only a few months, so it's normal for you not to be pregnant yet."

"I'm just wondering. If I can't conceive a baby, your parents will definitely separate us, won't they?" Rachel still wanted to know the answer.

Hiram sighed and smiled at her. "The current technology is so advanced that even if you can't conceive, there're many other ways to have a baby. Don't worry about it too much, " he said, trying to comfort her.

"But..."

"You don't have to worry about it. I'll accompany you to the hospital for a physical examination when I'm free. If there's anything wrong, we can have it treated. If not, you have to stop worrying, okay?"

Hiram kept on talking, knowing that it was the best way to reassure her.

Rachel glanced at him and then lowered her head, picking up a bit of her food with chopsticks absentmindedly.

"It's Mid-Autumn Festival in a few days. Mom asked me to go to XH Village with her. We go there to visit my dad's grave every year around this time, "
