Shen Zhichu loved him wholeheartedly for sixteen years, yet she was asked to leave empty-handed, just to make room for the "white moonlight" in his heart.
Li Jingshen thought he would...
Chapter 1163 You are pregnant
Li Jinxing kept staring at the kimchi in her hand, and she didn't know whether to put it in or not, feeling extremely embarrassed.
Li Jinxing also entered the kitchen. It was so late but he hadn't rested yet. He was still wearing his daytime clothes and hadn't washed yet.
As he walked into the kitchen, he lifted up his sleeves and buttoned up his cufflinks, revealing his muscular arms. He opened the refrigerator and looked at the ingredients inside to see if he could make some decent midnight snack.
Gu Wanqiu took advantage of the fact that his back was facing her and quickly stuffed the kimchi into her sleeves and hid it: "Then you prepare a midnight snack. I'm going back to my room to sleep first."
Just as she was about to slip away, Li Jinxing glanced at her and snorted coldly: "Put down the kimchi in your hand."
Gu Wanqiu curled her lips, placed the kimchi hidden in her sleeve on the counter, and was about to leave when she saw Li Jinxing taking out the ingredients from the refrigerator.
"Go sit outside for a while. I'll call you when I'm done."
"You want to make me something to eat?"
Li Jinxing raised his eyebrows: "Aren't you hungry?"
Of course she was hungry. If she wasn't hungry, she wouldn't have sneaked into the kitchen to look for food.
She didn't need to say anything, her expression said it all: "It'll only take a few minutes. I'll make two bowls of noodles. Do you want fried eggs?"
Gu Wanqiu had already thrown the issue of weight gain and weight loss out of her mind. She said weakly, "Yes." Then she looked at the kimchi and asked, "Can I still eat kimchi?"
"Add it to the noodles later." Li Jinxing washed the pot and quickly put water in to boil.
He cooked the simplest plain noodles, using lard to make a broth, adding dried shrimps to enhance the taste, and serving it with some vegetables.
Two bowls of noodles were cooked in less than ten minutes, and Gu Wan
Qiu ate the remaining kimchi and added a golden fried egg.
Li Jinxing was not hungry. He had a normal life and three meals a day. Even if he was very hungry at night, he would not eat. This was better for his stomach.
If it weren't for Gu Wanqiu, he wouldn't cook. He cooked two bowls of noodles just to keep her company. If he didn't eat, Gu Wanqiu certainly wouldn't eat either.
When Li Jinxing is at home, he cooks. When he is not at home, the chef does it.
Li Jinxing hired the chef at a high price. His cooking skills were not bad, but Gu Wanqiu still felt that Li Jinxing's cooking was more delicious.
Take this ordinary bowl of boiled noodles, for example. He made it very delicious, and paired it with an egg fried in butter, it was full of milky flavor. Gu Wanqiu drank it all without leaving any soup, and even burped at the end.
I was full. On this dark winter night, I could eat a bowl of noodles like this. My whole body felt warm and I felt particularly satisfied. After eating and drinking enough, I tended to feel sleepy. Gu Wanqiu waved her hand and said, "I'm going back to sleep."
"If you're hungry in the middle of the night, just ask me to make you something to eat."
"What if you fall asleep?"
"I'll always wake up if you knock on the door or call..."
"No." Gu Wanqiu shook her head: "I mean it's not nice to wake you up to make food for me."
"What's wrong with that? Are you unfamiliar with me? Or are you afraid I'll get angry? Since I don't mind the trouble, what else do you think is wrong?"
That's true. He himself doesn't mind the trouble, so why should she care so much?
Li Jinxing continued, "Eating midnight snacks is good for me. It's not so cold when sleeping in the winter, and I sleep better."
Gu Wanqiu asked: "Then
What if you're not home?"
Li Jinxing said: "I can't be away from home."
You're so sure, but what if? Gu Wanqiu continued, "Aren't you going on a business trip these two days? What if you're not back by the time I'm hungry?"
This isn't impossible. "You can ask the chef to prepare some pastries. When you're hungry in the middle of the night, you can just heat them up in the microwave and eat them. You don't have to cook them yourself or order takeout. It'll save you a lot of trouble. At least you won't have to eat kimchi like tonight."
Knowing that Gu Wanqiu couldn't bring herself to ask, Li Jinxing made plans for her, "I'll tell the chef tomorrow and ask him to make some simple midnight snacks for you to heat up."
"That's fine." Recently she was always very hungry in the middle of the night and woke up hungry, but was too embarrassed to come down to find food. Since Li Jinxing asked, Gu Wanqiu accepted it and even climbed up the pole to make some suggestions for midnight snacks.
"I want a midnight snack that's not easy to make you fat, high in protein and fiber, something that will fill you up without making you gain weight."
It's inevitable that you'll gain weight from eating midnight snacks. Only Gu Wanqiu likes to deceive herself and comfort herself, but she is pregnant and this is the time when she needs nutrition the most.
"You can tell the chef what you want to eat in the evening, and he will make it along with dinner, so it won't be a hassle. But the best thing is to cook and eat it right away, it tastes better. So, if you're hungry when I'm at home, I'll make you a midnight snack. At least you'll enjoy what I make, and I'll feel at ease." He wouldn't miss such a good opportunity to get along with Gu Wanqiu. In a quiet night, the two of them being alone, cooking and eating together, and chatting for a while, is the best way to warm up their relationship.
when.
Of course, Gu Wanqiu also knew that food tasted better if it was cooked and eaten immediately, so she did not refuse when Li Jinxing made this suggestion.
At this time, what she was thinking was almost the same as what Li Jinxing was thinking. At such a time, when a man and a woman were alone, the dopamine in the brain would be continuously secreted, which would make people feel emotional towards each other. This kind of excited emotion is commonly known as "good feelings". In a deeper sense, it is "love".
She will not fall in love with Li Jinxing, but will Li Jinxing, who has already fallen in love with her, love her more and trust her more?
Gu Wanqiu couldn't tell, so she agreed. If Li Jinxing was at home in the future, she would knock on his door when she was hungry, regardless of whether he was asleep or tired, because he told her to do so anyway.
After eating a bowl of hot noodles, Gu Wanqiu went back to her room to rest, leaving Li Jinxing alone in the kitchen to wash dishes.
Not long after she went upstairs, Li Jinxing also followed her upstairs to wash up.
Gu Wanqiu returned to her room, brushed her teeth, and then lay down on the bed. Li Jinxing lived diagonally opposite her, very close to her. The door was soundproofed, so she could not hear any movement outside.
He should be washing up at this moment. Gu Wanqiu lay on the bed covered with the quilt, took out his cell phone and looked at the time. It was already one o'clock in the morning.
She touched her stomach, which felt warm and comfortable. Li Jinxing was going to take her to the hospital for a physical examination the day after tomorrow, so she wondered if she should tell Gong Qing about it.
She had been taking medication for polycystic ovary syndrome and had not told Gong Qing, which caused Gong Qing to get very angry.
He was angry because he was concerned about her health. This time, Gu Wanqiu did not hesitate and honestly sent a text message to Gong Qing.
If I send it to him now, Gong Qing must have
He has fallen asleep, and he will be able to see it when he wakes up the next day.
Gu Wanqiu's memory has not been very good recently, and it is hard to say when she will remember it next time. Instead of letting Gong Qingwan know, it is better to let him know earlier so that he won't worry.
Gu Wanqiu hid under the quilt and sent a text message, telling him that Li Jinxing had to go on a business trip for the next two days and was very busy and would be back very late. On Saturday, Li Jinxing would take her to the hospital for a follow-up physical examination.
After Gu Wanqiu sent the message, he saw that it had been sent successfully, paused, and added another sentence.
——"I'll be fine, you don't have to worry about me."
It’s just that she hasn’t been able to bring any useful information to Gong Qing recently. It would be better if Li Jinxing could take her with him on his business trip these days.
After sending the text message, Gu Wanqiu felt relaxed, put the phone next to her pillow and fell asleep.
She falls asleep very quickly and has not had any insomnia problems recently. Once she feels sleepy, she can fall asleep soon after closing her eyes.
Not long after I fell asleep and was dreaming, the phone next to my pillow rang.
Gu Wanqiu was woken up by the noise. When she heard her cell phone ringing, she thought it was the alarm clock. She wondered why the alarm clock rang not long after she fell asleep. She half-closed her eyes and reached out her hand from under the quilt to touch the pillow. When she touched the cell phone and saw the words "Gong Qing" flash on the screen, Gu Wanqiu regained consciousness and her eyes were fully open.
She rubbed her eyes and looked at the time again.
It was 1:30 in the morning. Why didn't Gong Qing reply to her text message at this time and call her? Was there something urgent?
Gu Wanqiu frowned and picked up the phone.
Knowing
Even if she spoke freely, the room was soundproofed and Li Jinxing wouldn't hear her, but she still couldn't help but lower her voice, like a thief, and whispered into the phone: "Hello?"
