Chapter 113 I'm Pregnant

"Zhaozhao!"

Fu Shangluo stopped in front of Yun Zhaozhao. Yun Zhaozhao frowned and was about to speak when she heard Fu Shangluo say, "It's about to start. Watch it first."

Yun Zhaozhao did not refute this, as she had also put a lot of effort into this exhibition.

This exhibition displays many sculptures, including works borrowed from other masters besides the two artists. Each piece has its own story, representing a cultural heritage.

Soon it was Fu Shangluo's turn to present his exhibits. The narrator slowly began, "This is something a boy carved for the girl he loved. Initially, the boy chose to carve because he wanted to give it to the person he liked as a birthday gift, and he felt that what he made was the most sincere."

Hearing this, Yun Zhaozhao's heart stirred, but she remained silent. She heard the narrator continue, "At first, the boy didn't know it was love. He only knew that she was the most important person to him. Later, he understood his feelings and waited for the girl to grow up. However, he was too late; the girl had fallen in love with someone else."

"The boy was heartbroken and left his hometown, but every year he was away, he would still carve something for the girl on every festival to express his deep longing."

The chronological arrangement of the exhibits does indeed reveal a person's state of mind, from initial confusion to unrequited love, heartbreak, and finally, longing.

As the storyteller recounted the tale, many felt a pang of sadness. Regret is the most beautiful thing, and even with the last exhibit, they still hadn't seen the outcome.

Yun Zhaozhao couldn't bear to look at Fu Shangluo beside her. She had been thinking about why she hadn't fallen for Fu Shangluo back then, even though he was her ideal type.

Later she realized that perhaps what she truly liked wasn't a gentle and upright person like Fu Shangluo, but rather a madman like Pei Jiuyan.

Perhaps from the very first moment she saw Pei Jiuyan, she noticed his obsession and hypocrisy, but she didn't realize it herself; she was simply drawn to him.

Fu Shangluo remained silent; these exhibits reflected her emotional changes over the years.

Finally, there was Yun Zhaozhao's exhibit. Her pieces appeared much more immature compared to those of the master-level exhibits, and the presenter also mentioned that they were the work of an amateur enthusiast.

Yun Zhaozhao's story is simple: from being a pampered princess to falling in love with someone she shouldn't have, ending in heartbreak, and then rising again to face the sun.

Although this story has a better ending than Fu Shangluo's story, it still leaves the reader feeling uneasy.

People around were talking: "Sigh, these two stories hurt me the most. One is about unrequited love, and the other is about loving the wrong person."

"Wouldn't it be wonderful if they were in love?"

Yun Zhaozhao wasn't unaware of these discussions, but he didn't react at all. Fu Shangluo, however, said, "Zhaozhao, did you hear that? Everyone thinks we should be together."

"Brother Shangluo, if we were together, it would be another tragedy."

Yun Zhaozhao sighed and said, "Brother Shangluo, wouldn't it be better if we were just friends?"

"Oh no! I never intended to be friends with you."

Fu Shangluo's voice suddenly became louder, and many people looked over.

Here, he was a celebrity, and many people had heard the story he had just told, so everyone had their own guesses.

There were many reporters here today, and Yun Zhaozhao didn't want to have an unpleasant encounter with him, so she turned around and left, with Fu Shangluo following her.

"The Yun family's crisis is only temporarily resolved. Who will you ask for help next time?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Zhaozhao abruptly stopped and looked at him coldly: "Fu Shangluo, you've changed so much that I don't even recognize you anymore."

Her eyes were filled with heartache. Fu Shangluo looked away as if he had been burned and said coldly, "I didn't want to either, but I found that being a good person gets me nothing."

"Yun Zhaozhao, I've resigned. I'm going to pursue a career in politics."

Upon hearing this, Yun Zhaozhao opened her mouth but said nothing. She remembered that Fu Shangluo had told her before that he would not pursue a career in politics. Even though he was the eldest son of the Fu family, he would not submit. He disliked intrigue and backstabbing. He said his dream was to be a teacher, with summer and winter vacations, and enough time to spend with his family.

Now, he has given up his professorship and chosen to pursue a political career. For a moment, she didn't know what to say.

They're both adults; he made his own choice.

Seeing that she remained silent, Fu Shangluo couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you going to say something?"

"It's your own choice, as long as you like it."

Yun Zhaozhao's words completely disappointed Fu Shangluo: "They all say you are heartless, but I never believed it. Our Zhaozhao is so soft-hearted. Today, I finally understand."

Yun Zhaozhao is only soft-hearted towards those she cares about. Once you are no longer within her circle of concern, her heart will be harder than stone.

He took two steps back, and his gaze towards Yun Zhaozhao was no longer soft, but turned cold.

Since we can't use soft methods, let's use hard methods!

Yun Zhaozhao cares about many people: her maternal grandfather, Zhou Xiao, Wen Jingyu, Pei Jiuyan, and even that dog.

He always managed to make her submit!

As for whether it's willing or not, who cares? When Grandma was with Grandpa, wasn't she unwilling too? Yet she still made it through all these years.

He had a lifetime to accompany Yun Zhaozhao through her ups and downs.

Yun Zhaozhao didn't know what Fu Shangluo was thinking, but she saw the change in his eyes. She knew that she and Fu Shangluo could never go back to the way things were before.

Yun Zhaozhao gave Fu Shangluo a deep look, then turned and walked away, the two of them gradually disappearing into the distance.

Fu Shangluo watched Yun Zhaozhao leave, and after a while, he also prepared to leave.

He came to this exhibition today for Yun Zhaozhao. He knows Yun Zhaozhao and knew she would come. Now that he has seen her, there is no need for him to stay any longer.

He had just gotten into the car when the passenger door was suddenly pulled open. His expression changed when he saw who it was.

"Get down!"

Fu Shangluo said coldly.

Seeing the document reminded him of the mistake he made that night. How could he mistake the document for Yun Zhaozhao?

He had no recollection of it, but the marks on the clerk's body couldn't be faked. Afterwards, he carefully recalled and checked himself and found that he did indeed have marks of venting, which made him extremely upset.

The clerk wouldn't leave so easily. For the past month or so, she had been living like a rat. Pei Jiuyan's people were looking for her everywhere. She hid in a small room and didn't dare to go out, surviving on takeout every day.

Now that she had finally managed to see Fu Shangluo, she naturally wanted to seize the opportunity.

Before Fu Shangluo could speak again to drive her away, she dropped a bombshell.

"Professor Fu, I'm pregnant!"
