"What do you suggest?" Jia Li asked in a curious tone.
"When you get into FJ, I promise to help you launch your clothing line if you put in a lot of effort, I will help you stand alongside me." Fu Hua promised. He admired his wife's creative mind and he had respect for her working spirit.
"Launching my clothing line with FJ?" Jia Li asked with a shocked gaze. She couldn't believe that she just heard.
It was as if he was telling her she could pluck the stars from the sky and keep them for herself which was not possible. Jia Li saw that as an impossible height to reach.
"Anything is possible. Don't sell your designs yet get into FJ first. But don't take too long with showing us your hidden talents and I will push you to stardom.." Fu Hua added with a smile.
Fu Hua thought for a while and added, "I can not let your gift die, we are not going to have another child till a few years, the world needs to see you."
Jia Li was distracted by his words and was lost in thoughts for a while before going back to continue with her illustration. Fu Hua had just fueled her enthusiasm and she was ready to work.
Fu Hua didn't say anything more and opened his laptop to work.
When Jia Li was done with her illustration, she massaged her temples and was ready to go back to bed.
"Are you through, can I see it?" Fu Hua asked as he gazed at her.
"I want to sleep." Jia Li said with a frown.
Fu Hua saved his work and closed his laptop before leaving his desk. He went to meet Jia Li and picked up the tablet. When he saw the beautiful piece alive on the screen, he smiled.
"This should be a masterpiece. How about I buy it from you?" Fu Hua suggested with a smile.
Jia Li glanced at him with a profound gaze. "You just told me not to sell my designs, why did you change your mind?"
"I'm different. I will help you make the dress and you will contact Sunny and ask if FJ would be interested to buy the rights to it. I will help to write the message and send it on your behalf. Sunny will love it and since she knows I like your designs, she will mention it to me." Fu Hua said as he winked at her.
Jia Li understood the meaning behind his words and she smiled happily. "Alright! I will listen to you, Boss."
Fu Hua was trying to help her establish a place in the Fashion Industry and she was grateful for her kind intentions.
All these plans he had for her would help to make her more popular and she might get private orders from people of the high class to customize dresses for them.
Without his help, it might take long years before she gets noticed. Maybe if he didn't help her, grandfather Fu would have done that.
Fu Hua led Jia Li back to his bedroom to get some sleep.
At Jia Li's ninth month of pregnancy, Fu Hua started working from home.
In the morning, he would join her for exercises and have breakfast together before they would go into the workshop to do some work. At times, Jia Li would abandon him and spend time with her pets.
Her puppies were really growing well and each time she put them next to her on the couch, they would inch closer to her seeking her attention. Sometimes, they would nudge at her baby bump.
In the evenings, Jia Li would stroll with Fu Hua and her pets. Fu Hua found Ocean and the puppies annoying but he didn't reject their pany since his little wife liked them.
At night before going to bed, Fu Hua would massage Jia Li's feet, back and shoulders and dress the bed so she could lay down fortably.
Due to the weight of her baby, she would have swollen feet a few times but the backache was just there. Dr. Clinton remended some items to get to help relieve her of the back pains.
Twice in a week, Jia Li would receive a call from the old man and he would send her different kinds of healthy soups ???? a few times a week.
Fu Hee who was her mother-in-law called once in a Blue Moon and that was enough for Jia Li.
Jia Li and Fu Hua were still silent about a matter, they have refused to reveal their baby's gender to anyone.
They said to those that kept asking, "When the baby is born, we will reveal it."
Fu YingPei visited thrice because of work but each time he came, he would be served a table of dishes according to Jia Li's instruction, then they would sit and chat until Fu Hua asked him not to e over again.
Jia Li was annoyed and plained, "I'm so bored, why did you ask him not to e again, who will chat with me?!"
"I will chat with you! e find me whenever you want." Fu Hua said with his gaze on her.
Jia Li was sitting on the foot of the bed with a frown. She was annoyed at him.
"Let's go for a walk outside." Fu Hua said as he helped her to put on a pair of slipper.
Jia Li allowed him to hold her hand before leaving the bedroom together. It was summer already, so they wore fortable clothes that wouldn't make them sweat more especially Jia Li who easily felt hot.
Since the sun had set, it wasn't sunny outside.
"I can't believe we have 3 weeks before our baby is out." Jia Li said with a smile as she put one hand on her baby bump and caressed it.
Fu Hua smiled as he gazed at the baby bump before looking at her. "I can barely wait."
"I'm going to see Doctor Clinton tomorrow and I might take some time as I have an activity with other expectant mothers." Jia Li replied.
"I will join you." Fu Hua replied.
During the antenatal classes, the expectant mothers were taught how to take care of their newborns, from feeding to bathing and normal care. Some basic knowledge was also shared with them.
Fu Hua was interested in learning so he could help to take care of his little princess when she was born.
