Chapter 155 Don't...don't think about those messy things.

Lin Wei's heart skipped a beat.

She thought of the still-unstable little life inside her.

It's only been 2 months now.

The doctor said I shouldn't...

Lin Wei broke free from Gu Jingcheng's embrace and stood up.

She was caught off guard and bumped into the man's eyes, which were as dark as they could possibly be.

Lin Wei took a deep breath, avoiding his burning gaze.

He stammered out an excuse.

"No...no,"

"Gu Jingcheng, I...I've started my period..."

"Go to sleep early! Don't...don't think about those messy things!"

Lin Wei fled upstairs.

A vague unease crept into my heart.

There are too many variables in the future.

Even if she knew that Gu Jingcheng had no other feelings for Bai Qianqian.

However, she knew Bai Qianqian's feelings for Gu Jingcheng.

She couldn't guarantee what the future held for her and Gu Jingcheng.

Therefore, I dare not do it at this time.

Using children to test a newly repaired relationship

They were even more afraid of harming this hard-won little life.

Lin Wei gently stroked her still flat stomach, her eyes softening.

'Baby, give Mommy a little more time.'

Lin Wei secretly made up her mind.

After the first three months, once everything has stabilized...

Let's find a suitable time to tell him.

Now, protecting this secret is the only thing she can do.

-

Bai Qianqian changed into a smooth blue strapless nightgown.

The silk fabric clung to the body's curves.

She stood in front of the mirror and deliberately sprayed Chen Jinhuai's favorite woody perfume behind her ears and on her wrists.

Having been back in Jiangcheng for so long,

She moved into the villa under the identity of "Bai Qianqian".

However, there was always an invisible barrier between her and her brother Jin Huai.

There has been no substantial progress.

He always had a gentle and restrained demeanor.

But she was in a hurry.

She knew that Chen Jinhuai had no other women around him.

That's why,

She became even more confused.

He clearly kept saying he loved her to the bone and would wait for her for ten years.

But why won't he even touch her?

Could it be... because I cherish her too much?

Therefore, they dared not easily cross the line.

Bai Qianqian pondered in front of the mirror, trying to comfort herself.

Brother Jin Huai is focused entirely on revenge.

If she just takes the initiative, that will be fine.

Bai Qianqian lingered outside Chen Jinhuai's door for a while.

Having made up my mind, I gently knocked on the door.

Chen Jinhuai opened the door.

He was wearing dark pajamas, with a small patch of his muscular chest showing at the neckline.

The man had just showered; his black hair was still slightly damp and hung loosely.

He exuded a masculine scent mixed with the fragrance of shower gel.

Bai Qianqian's cheeks were burning hot.

She looked up at the handsome yet aloof man before her.

He stammered as he spoke.

"Brother Jin Huai... tonight, I... I'll sleep with you, okay?"

I'm alone... I'm a little scared.

A flicker of disgust crossed Chen Jinhuai's eyes, but it vanished in an instant.

"Qianqian, stop fooling around, it's late, go and rest."

Bai Qianqian listened to his usual tone of refusal.

Gritting his teeth and steeling his resolve,

She brought her soft lips closer.

Chen Jinhuai instinctively turned his head away.

Her kiss missed its mark, leaving her frozen in place.

Jealousy surged in my chest.

He said he didn't love Lin Wei, so why was he so coldly rejecting her?

What is so good about Lin Wei?

Why is it that all of you only have eyes for her?

And what about her? What about the ten years she waited for him?

What does all that she did for him count for?

Bai Qianqian softly took a step back.

"Brother Jin Huai, it was my fault. I won't do it again next time."

Chen Jinhuai looked at the injured woman,

Suppress your disgust and offer comfort.

"Qianqian, now is not the time. Wait until I've prepared everything."

Let's save it for our wedding night, okay?

Bai Qianqian's eyes brightened again.

"Really, Brother Jin Huai?"

Chen Jinhuai stepped forward and hugged her.

Her voice was gentle and warm, like jade.

"Of course it's true, Qianqian. When have I ever lied to you?"

I made some chicken soup; I'll bring some to Gu Jingcheng tomorrow.

"They said you made it..."

The light that had just ignited in Bai Qianqian's eyes dimmed.

A chill ran through my heart.

It turns out that even this brief moment of tenderness and promise...

The ultimate goal,

It was all so that she would try to please and win over another man.

Bai Qianqian forced a demure smile.

"Okay, I understand, Brother Jin Huai."

She returned to her room, and the obedient look on her face vanished.

All that remains is twisted resentment.

They are all Lin Wei.

If it weren't for Lin Wei, how could Brother Jin Huai be so unafraid to touch her?

Bai Qianqian clenched her fists in the darkness.

Sooner or later, she would make Lin Wei despised by everyone.

-

the next day

After finishing the company's strategy meeting, Gu Jingcheng sat on the sofa in his office and closed his eyes to rest.

The company is developing rapidly in Jiangcheng, and the plans for the second half of the year are very important.

If successful, Jingcheng Group will rank among the top private enterprises in Jiangcheng.

He rubbed his temples, looking somewhat tired.

The phone on the coffee table vibrated.

"Jingcheng, your wedding date with Weiwei has been set for some time now."

You two main characters, on the other hand, are both incredibly busy; you're practically invisible.

Gu Huojun paused, his voice softening.

"Let's take Weiwei back to the old house for lunch."

"Has it been a long time since the family sat down to eat together?"

Gu Jingcheng's heart softened; it had indeed been a long time since he had returned to the old house.

"Okay, Dad, I understand. I'll take Weiwei back at noon."

"That's more like it. Come earlier and stay a little longer."

This empty yard is all I have. Nono has been taken to America by your sister and brother-in-law again.

Now I'm all alone, an old man, surrounded by these flowers and plants.

"good."

After hanging up the phone,

Gu Jingcheng's mood brightened somewhat.

He dialed Lin Wei's number, his voice unconsciously softening.

"Weiwei, Dad just called and asked us to come home for lunch. Do you have time?"

Lin Wei gave a somewhat vague response from the other end of the phone.

"Hmm...okay..."

Lin Wei was sitting on the sofa in her office.

She scooped out a piece of chocolate lava cake with a spoon.

Put it in your mouth.

He squinted his eyes contentedly.

After becoming pregnant, her tastes became strange.

I have absolutely no resistance to sweets.

My cheeks have visibly become rounder during this time.

She looked at her reflection in the glass.

I subconsciously touched my flat stomach.

"Hopefully... this pregnancy..."

"It can be easily concealed for the first three months"

-

"Brother Jingcheng, are you busy?"

Gu Jingcheng frowned.

He stood up from the sofa.

"No, come in."

The door was pushed open.

Bai Qianqian walked in carrying a thermos lunchbox.

She was wearing a well-tailored white business suit.

It accentuated her shapely figure.

Long, straight black hair fell smoothly over her shoulders.

Her face had an obedient look.

"Brother Jingcheng, you seem to be very busy lately."

Lunch was probably just something quick and easy again.

I cook lunch for myself.

I accidentally brought an extra one.

I was thinking of sending it to you.

This is chicken soup that's been simmering for hours. Try some.

Gu Jingcheng's expression was complicated.

Looking at her cautious manner,

I couldn't bring myself to say no.

"Okay, thank you for your help. Please put it on the coffee table."

Bai Qianqian placed the food on the coffee table and opened it.

He gave a bitter smile.

"Brother Jingcheng, it's been a long time since you've tasted my cooking, hasn't it?"

I haven't cooked in a long time either, so I don't know if it will taste good.

"It's embarrassing to admit... Now I'm going into the kitchen..."

Seeing those gleaming knives,

I still can't help feeling scared... I'm so useless, aren't I?

Gu Jingcheng felt as if he had been pricked by a needle.
