Five years ago, Lin Sui abandoned her boyfriend of seven years, Qin Chen, to marry the playboy Zhou Dang, all to pay for her father's medical treatment.
Five years later, Lin Sui nearly g...
Lin Sui laughed. Why didn’t she realize that Gu Yuan was so humorous before?
She hummed a song and slowly started working, no longer replying to Gu Yuan's messages.
When Zhou Dang returned to the villa, Wen Yue was still asleep.
"She was just so dazed, sleeping the whole time. She'd get up to eat a few bites, and then she'd vomit everything." Aunt Wang sighed. "Sir, what's going on like this? Who suffers so much while pregnant?"
Zhou Dang also sighed. He had never expected the severity of Wen Yue's pregnancy reaction.
"Or let's go to the hospital for a checkup. The family doctor took a look last time, but he didn't do a blood test. Let's go to the hospital for a blood test to confirm what's wrong. If it's just morning sickness, we should treat it. Can't we get an IV?"
"I thought so too, but my wife is stubborn. She refuses to go to the hospital, saying she's just having morning sickness. She also said she had morning sickness when she was pregnant with her, and it's hereditary." Aunt Wang was so anxious that the wrinkles on her face deepened. "I was with my wife during her birth, and it wasn't as severe as yours."
"Please persuade her again." Zhou Dang was very irritable and was about to go to the study to work for a while. "Wen Yue is awake. Go to the study and call me."
Zhou Dang held two online meetings in his study, and it was already afternoon when he was busy. He slumped in his chair, put his feet on the desk, and smoked two cigarettes. He now understood the troubles of middle-aged men. It is not good to have too many women.
There were several faint knocks on the door. Zhou Dang thought it was Aunt Wang and called out, "Come in."
Unexpectedly, the person who opened the door was Wen Yue, who was wearing a floral nightgown. Zhou Dang was so surprised that he quickly took his feet off the desk and stood up.
"Why did you get out of bed?"
Wen Yue smiled, her eyes narrowed into two small crescents.
"I suddenly felt much better today. I didn't feel like vomiting as much, and I had a little more energy, so I got out of bed and took a walk."
"Really?" Zhou Dang was very surprised. This morning sickness was really strange. It came and went as it pleased.
"Yes, I still have some appetite now. I really want to eat tomato pasta. I just told Aunt Wang and she immediately went to make it." Wen Yue took a deep breath. "Do you think our baby will show mercy and stop torturing me?"
"I guess he felt sorry for you when he saw you suffering so much." Zhou Dang said.
"What a sensible baby." Wen Yue touched her belly.
"Madam, the pasta is ready, come down and eat!" Aunt Wang was obviously more excited than the two of them and trotted up the stairs.
"Will you eat something with me?" Wen Yue looked up and asked Zhou Dang.
"certainly."
Wen Yue held Zhou Dang's arm, and the two of them came to the dining table together. Aunt Wang made tomato pasta and some other side dishes. Although it looked out of place, one could feel her love.
Wen Yue's appetite was unprecedentedly good. She ate a small plate of tomato pasta and some side dishes. Aunt Wang looked at her fearfully, afraid that she would vomit again if she wasn't careful.
Zhou Dang was also a little worried, "You've just recovered your appetite, so you should eat less."
"No, I haven't been feeling well these past few days and haven't eaten anything. The baby has suffered with me in my belly. Now that I can eat, I must eat more to provide him with nutrition." Wen Yue took another bite of the food.
"There's a long way to go." Zhou Dang tugged at the chopsticks in Wen Yue's hand. "Be good, you've eaten enough today."
Wen Yue hummed, put down her chopsticks, picked up a book and lay on the sofa to read, "I feel so much more comfortable now. I haven't read a book for a long time. I'm so happy." She raised her head and sighed in the direction of Zhou Dang.
Zhou Dang smiled, and the heavy stone in his heart was put down a little. At least Wen Yue was feeling much more comfortable now, which was also a good thing.
He sent a message to Lin Sui saying that he would not go over tonight. Lin Sui did not reply. He put down the phone and looked at Wen Yue from a distance. He told himself in his heart that he would wait for a few days until she felt more comfortable and then file for divorce with her. Even if the law did not allow it now, as long as she did not say it, who would know.
It’s not that Lin Sui didn’t receive Zhou Dang’s message, but she chose to ignore it.
At this moment, she was sitting in Gu Yuan's car, driving towards the suburbs. Gu Yuan said he wanted to take her to watch the sunset.
The scenery outside the window quickly receded, and night was about to fall. It was late spring, and many flowers had already bloomed. The fragrance of flowers surrounded the road. Lin Sui opened the car window a little, and the fresh air blew in. She took frequent deep breaths.
"It's so nice and comfortable." she sighed.
"You'll feel more comfortable when we get up the mountain," said Gu Yuan.
The car slowly drove up the hillside and stopped on a gentle slope. Lin Sui got out and looked up, just in time for sunset. The blood-red sun was about to sink behind the mountainside, the sunset glow spread across the mountains and the chirping of insects echoed one after another.
Lin Sui said nothing and just watched quietly until night fell completely.
"Thank you, I haven't been so close to nature for a long time." Lin Sui thanked softly.
"It's good to get more exposure to nature. Isn't there a popular saying recently: spend less time with people and more time with nature?" Gu Yuan said with a smile.
Lin Sui also laughed.
"How many months?" Gu Yuan asked, looking at Lin Sui's round belly.
"It's been more than six months, and the due date is the end of June." Lin Sui said lovingly, looking at her belly.
"Oh, it's a Cancer. What a good sign. A little helper for the Gu family." Gu Yuan teased.
"Really? That's good. Does that mean that when I get old, he can come to see me more often?" Lin Sui began to imagine according to Gu Yuan's words.
"Of course I can, don't worry." Gu Yuan looked at Lin Sui's face. In the night, only Lin Sui's eyes and lips were glowing.
"Your lips are so shiny." Gu Yuan said.
"I put on a sparkly peach-flavored lipstick." Lin Sui said with a smile, taking out the lipstick from his pocket. "Here, this is it. It's very expensive."
Gu Yuan nodded, "Why, do you want to give it to me?"
"Just try it if you want."
Gu Yuan took a step forward and said, "Then I won't be polite."
Immediately afterwards, the lipstick in Lin Sui's hand was not taken away, but a hint of coolness came from her pink lips. Realizing that Gu Yuan had kissed her, she quickly took a step back.
"What are you doing? That's not what I meant." Lin Sui covered his mouth, a little flustered.
"That's what I mean." Gu Yuan emphasized.
Lin Sui stopped talking and turned back to the car, sitting in the passenger seat, her heart pounding.
Gu Yuan also got in the car. He was obviously in a good mood. He hummed a song and started the engine, "I'll take you home."
"Hmm..." Lin Sui's voice was muffled.
But Lin Sui quickly figured it out. It was just a kiss and didn't mean anything. Why should she worry about it?
Learn from men, learn from men.
She warned herself in her heart.
