Ruan Xiangyi, the stepdaughter of the Ruan family, possessed a gentle disposition and was sensible and obedient. After moving into the Ruan family with her mother, her greatest wish was to graduate...
Chapter 60 Chapter 60 Sex is not shameful
Zhao Qingshi couldn't sleep, so he sat on the sofa, lit a cigarette, and found the circle of friends that Ruan Xiangyi had posted late at night. He clicked on her photo and saw her smiling face, her beautiful face, and the corners of his mouth were unconsciously raised by her. He saved the photo, slid his fingertips down, and finally saw Shen Tingwan's comment.
When I clicked on her picture and saw the content, my breath stopped and my eyes suddenly turned red.
The angle of this picture is very bad, and it doesn't even capture one-third of the heroine's beauty, but for him, she has a fatal attraction.
His eyes became moist, he put out the cigarette and raised his head to breathe.
The person on the bed was sleeping soundly, completely unaware of the turbulent emotions surging in his heart.
So lucky, one day you will come towards me.
Not long after the Chinese New Year, Lin Manshu told her something: she wanted to divorce Ruan Fu, and she asked Ruan Xiangyi for her opinion.
Ruan Xiangyi certainly supports her to live her own life, but Lin Manshu still has concerns.
If she divorced Ruan Fu, Ruan Xiangyi would no longer be the second daughter of the Ruan family. Marriage requires equal status, but it is not just about family background. It also requires whether they can complement each other in business and be successful. This is what she is most worried about.
It's not that she doesn't believe Zhao Qingshi now. She is an experienced person and understands that it is difficult for feelings to withstand the test of time. She is afraid that her daughter will follow her old path. What should she do then?
Lin Manshu told her this over the phone. After hearing what she said, Ruan Xiangyi felt uncomfortable. She hoped that Lin Manshu could live for her once.
In the evening, Zhao Qingshi saw that she looked worried and absent-minded, and asked her what had happened.
Ruan Xiangyi hesitated for a moment, but still told him about Lin Manshu.
After hearing this, Zhao Qingshi's brows furrowed into a shape of a "川" (川).
"What do you think?" He cared about her thoughts.
"I don't have any opinions. I support her divorce from Uncle Ruan."
"I'm asking what you think about being well-matched."
"What?"
"Don't be stupid, you know what I mean."
The room fell silent. Ruan Xiangyi sat cross-legged on the bed and thought for half a minute: "If I didn't have the status of the Ruan family, would your family not be so willing to let you marry me so easily?"
"What do you care what they do?"
"But that's the truth. If I had no relationship with the Ruan family, even if I was pregnant at the time, your mother probably wouldn't have agreed to let you marry me."
Zhao Qingshi was almost pissed off by her.
"Whether they agree or not has nothing to do with my marrying you."
Ruan Xiangyi looked up blankly.
"I have no business dealings with the Ruan family. In fact, after we got married, Ruan Fu came to me several times and proposed to cooperate with me, but I refused. It was not just about the company, but more importantly, I didn't want him to use our relationship to make demands. The purpose of doing this was to make Ruan Fu understand that you and the Ruan family are separate. In my eyes, whose daughter you are, who your father is, and what your family does are none of this. To me, you are just Ruan Xiangyi."
Zhao Qingshi pinched her face harder and said, "If you don't understand what I'm saying now, go back and think about it slowly. But if you continue to be so unsteady in the future, I'll show you how I'll deal with you.
Ruan Xiangyi covered her face and glared at him resentfully: "How could I not be firm? I was just analyzing it with you."
"What's the result of your analysis? I will abandon you at any time for the sake of profit. What a bullshit analysis."
“…”
It wasn't the first time she heard him say such dirty words, but today she felt it was particularly sexy. She hugged him and said softly, "I'm sorry, I was wrong."
"Go away, don't touch me." He got angry and pulled her hand away.
"No." She held him like a sloth and refused to let go, sitting on him with a glare. "I'm pregnant, and pregnant women tend to have wild thoughts. And you're wrongly accusing me."
"Get down." Afraid that she would fall backwards, he held her lower back with his hands.
"No."
"Go down."
"You're mean to me."
“…”
"How could I be so mean to you?"
"Yes." Ruan Xiangyi said aggrievedly, and was about to get off him, but his hand stopped her, "Didn't you tell me to get off? What are you doing?"
She asked knowingly. Zhao Qingshi sighed and said, "Can't you just coax me a little more?"
Ruan Xiangyi secretly laughed in her heart, and said with a stern face: "You were the one who was mean to me first."
"How could I be so mean to you?"
"You! Just now! Said! Let me! Not! Touch! You!" Ruan Xiangyi emphasized the seriousness of the matter.
"When? I don't remember." He started to lie.
Ruan Xiangyi sneered.
It was so cute that Zhao Qingshi bent down and gave her a kiss.
Ruan Xiangyi covered her mouth and said, "You're cheating."
"You can kiss me back," he challenged.
Ruan Xiangyi was thin-skinned in this regard. He thought she would be angry and push him away, telling him not to dream. But who would have thought that she would put her arms around his neck and say, "Kiss me then."
She rushed forward, biting his lower lip and asserting her sovereignty. "If it's revealed that you're having dinner alone with a female celebrity again, I'll show you how I'll deal with you."
Zhao Qingshi was so happy, he thought she didn't care at all.
*
Zhao Qingshi took some time off during lunch to go see Lin Manshu.
Lin Manshu flipped through a few pages of the document he handed her. All the names on it had been changed to Ruan Xiangyi. There was no need to read any more, so she closed the document and asked, "Does Xiangyi know about this?"
"I haven't told her yet."
The total value of these assets exceeded 1 billion yuan. Lin Manshu really didn't expect that he had done so much behind her back.
"Then why are you telling me this today?"
"I heard Xiangyi say that you wanted to divorce Ruan Fu, but you had other concerns. I came here today because of your concerns. I didn't marry her because of the Ruan family behind her. You should know that I don't care about the Ruan family. I married her only because I want to protect her, love her, and want to live a good life with her."
"Didn't you marry her because of the baby in her belly?" Lin Manshu stared at him with scrutiny.
Zhao Qingshi was calm and composed: "The child can't be considered a reason, for me it can only be said to be an opportunity. You should also know that at that time, she only had Shen Huaimeng in her heart. Even if I wanted to have something with her, she would not be willing to follow me. Why didn't I help her. But later, this child was born, and of course I had to seize the opportunity."
"I came here today to promise you that I will only love Xiangyi in this life. If you don't believe me, I can sign an agreement with her. If we get divorced, I'm willing to leave the house with nothing."
"No need." Lin Manshu interrupted calmly, "I believe in you. Even if you don't do it, the property you gave her is enough for her to live a worry-free life. Qingshi, don't blame me for not trusting you. The gap between your statuses is too big. As a mother, I always have to make plans for my child."
"I understand. Xiangyi is the same. She also hopes that you can find your own happiness."
Lin Manshu smiled and said, "Go back and tell her. Mom will figure it out."
Zhao Qingshi: "She will definitely be very happy when she finds out."
During the winter vacation, Ruan Xiangyi did not go to the school library to study. Zhao Qingshi moved half of the study room for her to use. He would come back to have lunch with her at noon and come back early in the evening. He never missed the monthly prenatal check-ups and tried to spend more time with her.
After dinner, Zhao Qingshi accompanied her for a walk.
It was still chilly in March, and some branches had already sprouted green buds. Zhao Qingshi put his arm around her waist as they walked, saying, "Your 24th birthday is in a few days. Do you have any birthday gifts you'd like?"
She has been focusing on her studies recently and completely forgot that her birthday is coming soon.
"I didn't even remember it, but you remember it so clearly."
"It's okay, as long as I remember it. How about throwing a party at home and inviting your friends over?"
"No need to make such a big fuss. I'm a bit socially anxious, and I just want to be with you."
"Okay, I'll arrange it." Zhao Qingshi already had a plan in mind. "Where's the gift?"
Ruan Xiangyi sighed: "Don't ask me, I will like anything you give me. If I tell you, then I won't be surprised."
How come he has no interest at all?
Zhao Qingshi laughed: "Okay, I won't ask, it's my fault."
"I didn't come back at noon today because I went to talk to my mother," he explained.
"What are you talking about?"
"She asked me to tell you that she will seriously consider her marriage and ask you not to worry."
"I'm not worried." Ruan Xiangyi muttered softly.
"I don't know who it is, but I've been tossing and turning and unable to sleep these past few nights."
"No." She said stubbornly, but she was very happy in her heart.
In fact, it’s not just Lin Manshu’s fault that she can’t sleep. Her belly is already five months old, and no clothes look good on her now. Her feet are also swollen. The last time she went for a physical examination, the doctor said that she was gaining weight too fast.
This is probably something that every pregnant mother will experience.
"Have I gained a lot of weight?" she asked.
During the time she was at home, she gained more than ten pounds. Before she got pregnant, she weighed only 90 pounds, but now she weighs almost 120 pounds.
Girls are much more sensitive about their body shape and weight. From a boy's point of view, there is not much difference. She has a cute oval face, but when she gets angry, she looks like a frog with her cheeks bulging. As for her figure, there is nothing much to say. She is round and smooth, and looks like a fragrant and soft cake.
Ruan Xiangyi didn't believe his nonsense and lost control of her emotions: "I'm about to turn into a pig."
Zhao Qingshi coaxed her: "How could that be? How could a pig be as pretty as you?"
"It's all your fault. You asked Aunt Cui to make delicious food for me every day. I'm fat because of you!"
"Blame me, blame me. So I'll tell her to control it tomorrow?"
"Why don't you let the one in your belly take control."
“…”
“…”
"Xiangyi, it's my fault."
“That’s what it is.”
"My feet are swollen too. It's all your fault."
"Blame me, I'll help you rub your legs when we get back."
Zhao Qingshi coaxed her for a long time before he calmed her down. After applying the essential oil on her, he was about to get up to wash his hands when she almost kicked him off the bed.
Zhao Qingshi: “?”
Ruan Xiangyi looked at him with tears in her eyes: "It's all your fault."
Why are you crying again?
Zhao Qingshi wiped her tears: "It's all my fault, don't cry."
You were fine just now, why are you crying all of a sudden?
Ruan Xiangyi handed him the phone: "We have a dinner party in the dormitory tomorrow, how can I go?"
Zhao Qingshi glanced at the content and understood her troubles.
"How about..."
Before she finished speaking, she added, "But I haven't seen them for a long time, and I miss them too."
"Then go! I'll reimburse you!"
Ruan Xiangyi glared at him and pointed at her stomach: "What about him!"
Zhao Qingshi observed her expression while considering how to speak, fearing that he would step on her wrong path. "It's still very cold now. Wearing a thicker down jacket should be able to cover it up."
"It's all your fault, it's your fault, it's your fault, it's your fault, it's your fault, it's your fault!" She bit him as if she was not satisfied. Zhao Qingshi frowned and hissed, and offered a sincere suggestion: "Xiangyi, why don't you tell the truth? I'll go with you tomorrow. Don't you have to go back to school to take graduation photos and defend your thesis then? Instead of surprising them then, why not tell them the truth tomorrow? Don't many schools support marriage while still in school? Besides, you're graduating soon, so we're legal and compliant."
“It’s a bit shameful.”
"?"
"The pregnancy process is shameful."
Zhao Qingshi held his forehead and chuckled: "Baby."
Ruan Xiangyi got goosebumps when he called her "baby".
"Baby, so this is what you're struggling with." Zhao Qingshi lifted her face. "Sex is not shameful. All things need to reproduce to have new life. There's no need to be embarrassed about it. You are the greatest person now."
When Zhao Qingshi went into the bathroom to take a shower, Ruan Xiangyi opened her phone and replied to them in the dormitory group chat. When Zhao Qingshi came out of the shower, she was still chatting on her phone, laughing at something. He didn't disturb her, but took a book to read beside her. When she was almost done chatting, he closed the book and asked: "Are you done chatting?"
Ruan Xiangyi nodded: "Yeah."
Zhao Qingshi then turned off the lights and lay down, stretching out his arms and Ruan Xiangyi immediately lay down in front of him.
