He suddenly pressed his ear against her belly, seriously listening to something. From time to time, he muttered softly to her belly as if talking to himself.

Huo Tingdong finally lifted his head and asked, "Do you think the baby can hear what I'm saying?"
Lin Qi responded, "Hearing is one thing, understanding is another."

Lin Qi replied, "They can't hear yet! The baby hasn't developed fully, they're still so tiny. I'm carrying a normal baby, not a child prodigy like Nezha."
Huo Tingdong remarked, "If the daughter we have takes after you, that would be nice."
