Chapter 305 Aren't you happy that I'm pregnant?

Three pairs of parents stood below the stage. Mo Anbang and Qiao Siying stood in the middle, Chu Weize and Qi Feiyao stood on the left, and Shi Jingman and Shen Minghui stood on the right.

Shi Jingman kept pressing her handkerchief to her cheeks to wipe away her tears. Her daughter's love life had been so bumpy, but she had finally married a good man.

Qiao Siying was beaming with joy. Her son was amazing; he had married such a wonderful wife at such a young age. She could now sit back and wait to hold her grandson.

Qi Feiyao was being particularly low-key today, trying her best to avoid meeting Shi Jingman. If she had to see her, like now, she would keep her eyes down and stay quietly to the side, refusing to make eye contact with Shi Jingman.

...

Nancy looked at her friend on the stage with a mixture of envy and pride in her eyes.

Morrison stood beside her, glanced at Nancy a few times, and asked in a low voice, "You envy her?"

“Yes,” Nancy nodded, “Chu Rou is happy to marry the person she wanted to marry, and I hope she can stay happy.”

“Marry the person you want to marry,” Morrison pondered the meaning of the words, then gave Nancy a meaningful look. “Who do you want to marry?”

Who does she want to marry? Nancy fell silent. Is this something she can even think about? She has only been intimate with one man, Morrison, but her status only qualifies her to be his mistress, a kept mistress.

“I haven’t thought about that,” Nancy said, her gaze shifting to the newlyweds on the stage, her eyes vacant, unable to see her own future. “Maybe I’ll never have the chance to get married.”

Morrison glanced at her with his eyes down and said nothing more.

...

Chu Rou and Mo Chi's wedding went smoothly. After a round of toasts, Chu Rou was so exhausted that she didn't even have time to eat.

After the wedding banquet ended, they were sent back to their new home.

Chu Rou was both sleepy and hungry, and leaned against Mo Chi. "Mo Bao, I'm so tired, hungry and sleepy, I'm about to collapse! Luckily, I'll only get married once in my life."

"It's a once-in-a-lifetime event, so it has to be grand. I don't want you to have any regrets!" Mo Chi picked up Chu Rou and carried her to the dining table, telling people to hurry up and prepare some food.

Chu Rou sat at the dining table, starving. The maid quickly brought over two bowls of thick noodle soup. "Madam, would noodles be alright? This is the fastest."

"Okay." Chu Rou wasn't picky about food; she just wanted to fill her stomach.

Mo Chi placed the noodles in front of Chu Rou, "Wife, eat up!"

Chu Rou saw oil floating on the noodle soup, and the smell that entered her nose made her feel nauseous. But her stomach was empty, so she forced herself to eat a bite of noodles. When she tried to take a second bite, her stomach started churning.

She covered her mouth and ran into the bathroom as fast as she could.

The maid was nervous. Were the noodles she made really that bad?

Mo Chi stood there, lost in thought, his expression a complex mix of laughter and tears. He lowered his head and took a bite of noodles; the taste was good, which further confirmed his suspicions.

He quickly stood up and went to the bathroom to find Chu Rou.

Chu Rou vomited up all the noodles she had eaten and kept dry heaving.

Mo Chi supported Chu Rou and asked worriedly, "Wife, how are you?"

Chu Rou's eyes were brimming with tears. "I'm fine, I just feel nauseous. I'll feel better after I throw up."

"Wife," Mo Chi's voice trembled slightly, "is your period late?"

Chu Rou was stunned. Her period had indeed missed this month. "It's almost twenty days late."

Her eyes widened. "Oh my god, I'm not pregnant, am I?!"

"Honey, let me take you to the hospital for a test!"

"No need, I have pregnancy tests. I bought a lot. I'll test myself first."

Chu Rou and Mo Chi came out of the bathroom and went upstairs back to their bedroom.

A few minutes later, Chu Rou's scream came from upstairs, "Ah! Mo Bao, you're going to be a dad!"

Mo Chi stared blankly at the two clear lines on the pregnancy test, unsure how to react.

He was going to be a father. There was a little life connected to him by blood in Rou Rou's belly, which made him feel magical and excited.

But this means he won't be able to eat meat for a long time! Oh dear, this child came at the worst possible time. He should at least have been allowed to finish his wedding night!

"Mo Bao, aren't you happy that I'm pregnant?" Chu Rou was very dissatisfied with Mo Chi's reaction.

Mo Chi forced a smile and hugged Chu Rou, "Happy, of course I'm happy, I was so happy I almost cried!"

"I'll call my mom right now!"

Chu Rou's pregnancy was a big deal, and Mo Chi dared not take it lightly. He took out his phone and dialed Qiao Siying's number.

Qiao Siying had just settled down back at the old house when she realized that today was the most tiring day of her forty-odd years of life, but she was happy no matter how tired she was.

She answered her phone as soon as it rang, "Xiao Chi, what's wrong?"

"Mom, Rou Rou is pregnant, what should I do?"

Qiao Siying jumped to her feet. "What did you say? Rou Rou is pregnant? I'm coming right now!"
