Please Let Me Go novel Chapter 72

Finally, they got to the largest maternity shop in the downtown. Adelaide touched her slightly swollen belly, feeling happy. She pouted with her hand supporting her chin. She thought of a question which had been suffering thousands of young women, then she turned her head to look at Antonio, "Antonio, do you think it will be a boy or a girl?"

At this moment, Antonio finally understood what the family affection was. His wife was asking him, “Is our child a boy or a girl?” In fact, he was also looking forward to the little guy's coming. His eyes softened because of this question, "No matter it’s a boy or a girl, I like it!"

Antonio didn’t think that he had to have a boy, nor did his Grandma. He thought girls were very cute. If their daughter could be as gentle, kind and sensible as Adelaide, it would be much better than having a little naughty boy. He also began to look forward to it while thinking about it.

Adelaide smiled. The big smile from the corner of her mouth warmed his heart. Antonio touched her soft hair and used his hand to walk through her hair. Slowly, his hand slid along the smooth hair to the end of hair.

He was about to say something, but Hanna coughed twice. She looked at Adelaide, and then at Antonio. She severely criticized Antonio, "Antonio! This is a public place. Don’t do PDA!"

After hearing this, Adelaide blushed again. She knew that as long as Antonio and Hanna were walking together, they would definitely argue with each other.

Adelaide didn’t want to get involved into their quarrel. So she didn't bother them. She just went straight to the crib shop. The decoration inside not only made others feel the warmth of a little princess but also feel the naughty of a little boy!

As soon as they entered the store, the two sales staff greeted them and bowed slightly to them, saying warmly, "Welcome, what can I do for you?"

Adelaide lowered her head shyly, touched her lower abdomen, and asked the two sales staff, "Hello, I have been pregnant for five months old. I don't know it’s a girl or a boy. Can I buy a crib now?"

The sales staff were all sweet-looking girls. Every staff in this maternal and child store must have at least one child so that they could give the best service to customers.

They nodded and made a "please" gesture. The three of them walked past the various cribs, and finally stopped in front a simple crib.

One of the salespersons pulled the guardrail which was beside the bed. She gently shook it up, and then the small bed swayed from side to side with her hand swaying.

The bed was made of the most primitive wood polished. In order to prevent the baby from scratching and eating sawdust or unclean things, the designer specially added a layer of professional bite plastic to all the places the baby could touch.

No extra fancy decorations, everything was good for the baby.

After the salesperson finished explaining, Adelaide shyly pulled Antonio's sleeve. She said she liked the crib very much, especially its workmanship.

She was worried that the beautiful bedside would brush paint. Everyone knew that the paint contained a lot of toluene, glycol ethers, heavy metals and other compounds. If her baby fell asleep uncomfortably or poisoned, what would she do? She couldn’t image what effect those things would harm their children.

As long as she thought of those effect, she would feel scared. She was even more worried.

However, the workmanship of this bed was simple. There was no trace of paint. Besides, the rubber was installed where the baby could touch.

She was very satisfied!

Antonio nodded. As long as she liked it, then buy it.

Then, the three of them came to the baby shoes and clothing area. She really liked the little cotton-padded jacket Hanna gave last time. It seemed that Adelaide walked into heaven. The smile had been always on her face.
