Chapter 175 Gossipy Qian Muchue

When Zhao Wan heard her mother's comfort, she threw herself into her mother's arms, crying and defending herself.

"Mom, Wenjie is really a good person. He will definitely be filial to you and Dad in the future. Why doesn't Dad believe me?" Zhao Wan said aggrievedly.

"As long as you feel good, it's fine. You are our only daughter, and your father and I hope you live a good life." Mother Zhao patted Zhao Wan on the back and comforted her.

Of course, Zhao's mother still did not approve of Gong Wenjie, but Zhao Wan was firm in her attitude. Zhao's mother could only hope that Gong Wenjie was really good to her daughter. After comforting Zhao Wan, Zhao's mother returned to the room, still feeling upset. She called Zhao Xi and complained to her adopted daughter.

It's strange to say, Zhao's mother loves her biological daughter Zhao Wan very much. In her opinion, everything in the Zhao family should be given to Zhao Wan, but when she encounters any problems, she especially likes to look for her adopted daughter Zhao Xi.

Zhao Xi returned to his residence very late after working overtime. He had not even eaten dinner. He listened tiredly to his adoptive mother's concern for Zhao Wan on the phone. As she spoke, Zhao's mother could not control her emotions and began to sob softly.

"Mom, you and Dad are old, you have to take care of your health. Wan'er is also an adult and can be responsible for her own life." Zhao Xi comforted softly.

"I know you and Wan'er are not close, but if Wan'er is not doing well, your dad and I will not be doing well. Xixi, you are the elder sister. For the sake of your dad and me, you should also care more about Wan'er." Mother Zhao said on the other end of the phone.

Although these words sounded earnest, Zhao Xi knew that her mother was blaming her. Zhao Xi took a deep breath. She should have known that when parents knew that they were not their biological children, their feelings towards them would change.

Just like now, when Zhao's mother called her, she didn't even ask her how she was doing outside. Her heart and eyes were filled with only her biological daughter Zhao Wan. If Zhao Wan wasn't busy now, Zhao's mother might not even remember to call her.

She had no right to blame Zhao's father and mother for being partial, because she was not their biological daughter. She also had no way to blame Zhou's parents for not being close to her, because she did not grow up with them.

Not only can she not blame him, but she also owes him a debt of gratitude because he gave birth to her and raised her.

"Mom, don't think too much. Wan'er and I are fine now. It's very late, you should go to bed early. I will go back to City A in a few days to see you and Dad." Zhao Xi concealed the discomfort in his heart and spoke to his mother with a smile.

After ending the call with Zhao's mother, Zhao Xi didn't get a good rest the whole night. Some things really can't be obtained by hard work.

Qian Muchue soon learned about the turmoil in the Zhao family, and Zhao Xi did not hide it from Zhao Wan at all.

Since becoming pregnant, Qian Muchue's workload has dropped sharply, especially as her belly has grown bigger. Neither Zhao Xi nor Xue Chao dared to let her get tired. Except for the new design of Oriental Verve, there was really no one who could replace her. Zhao Xi handled other things himself and would not tell Qian Muchue about them.

On Chuxin's side, Xue Chao adheres to the principle of making less money but not exhausting Qian Muchue. If there is any problem, Xue Chao will not report it to his superiors but solve it himself. He knows very well that the baby in Qian Muchue's belly is more important than the development of their company.

So, Qian Muchue didn’t care much about things that had nothing to do with her in the past. Maybe it was because she had time now, or maybe it was because of her pregnancy, so now she was very happy to listen to Zhao Wan’s gossip, and was secretly waiting for the follow-up.

What Qian Muchue didn't know was that Zhao Wan and Gong Wenjie were progressing so smoothly because she also played a big role in it.

Looking at Qian Muchue, who was pregnant for more than six months and happily sharing gossip with him, Gong Chen kept listening to her with a smile. Since becoming pregnant, Gong Chen found that Qian Muchue's brain became slower and she talked more, but she was still very cute.

Most people will experience physical discomfort when they are pregnant, but Qian Muchue's physical condition is excellent. Apart from the inconvenience of carrying a big belly, there is no other problem. She can eat, drink and sleep.

At first, Gong Chen was a little worried because Qian Muchue ate so much but only gained weight in her belly and not in her flesh, and her limbs were still very thin. After going to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor repeatedly assured him that both the adult and the child were healthy. Only when he saw Qian Muchue's energetic appearance did Gong Chen feel relieved.

Therefore, the only change that pregnancy brought to Qian Muchue was that she became dumber, but she herself could not feel it. On the contrary, Qian Xiaoya became more and more difficult to fool since she went to kindergarten.

Especially knowing that the children in the small class sleep with their parents at night, Qian Xiaoya, although she can hardly read now, knows how to argue with Gong Chen.

"Dad, I want to sleep with mom tonight. Other kids also sleep with their moms." Qian Xiaoya said with a pout, hugging Gong Chen's thigh.

"Well, who is braver between you and other kids?" Gong Chen asked gently, touching Qian Xiaoya's little head.

"Of course I am brave. They cry, but I never cry." Qian Xiaoya said proudly.

Even though Qian Xiaoya was transferred to a small class and the other children were older than her, she was very fierce and no one could bully her. Other children would provoke her first. When she was in a good mood, she would reason with you, but when she was in a bad mood, her little fists would not be tolerated.

Since she started kindergarten, Qian Xiaoya is the only one in the class who has never cried.

"Well, other children are not brave enough and need their parents to accompany them. Yaya is different. You are very brave and great. You can sleep by yourself." Gong Chen said.

Qian Xiaoya: “…”

What her father said was not wrong and he even praised her, but for some reason, Qian Xiaoya always felt something was wrong. The little girl started off on the wrong foot and her first protest failed.

So, Gong Chen told stories to Qian Xiaoya as usual, and gave prenatal education to the baby in Qian Muchue's belly. In the past, Gong Chen's voice had a very strong hypnotic effect on Qian Xiaoya, but since she became pregnant, Qian Muchue often listened to Gong Chen telling stories, and then fell asleep while listening.

In less than ten minutes, Qian Muchue fell asleep leaning on Gong Chen, and her daughter Qian Xiaoya was also sleeping soundly with her little head resting on her father's lap.

Gong Chen reached out and gently moved Qian Xiaoya's little head to the side, then skillfully carried Qian Muchue back to the bedroom. Then he returned and carried the little girl to the children's room next door. Both mother and daughter fell asleep, and Gong Chen's work for the day was over.

Before Qian Muchue could wait for Zhao Xi to tell her the follow-up of Zhao Wan and Gong Wenjie, Gong Chen told her.

It turned out to be Gong Mingwei, who stopped Gong Chen at the company and told him that Gong Wenjie was getting married. The general meaning was that Gong Wenjie was Gong Chen's younger brother, and Gong Chen wanted to express his gratitude for his younger brother's marriage.

Originally, Gong Chen didn't want to say a word to Gong Mingwei about this matter, but thinking that Qian Muchue was still waiting for the gossip to end, he patiently asked a few questions about Gong Wenjie and Zhao Wan's situation.

Gong Mingwei thought that Gong Chen had changed his personality and knew how to care about his parents and brothers, so he patiently talked to Gong Chen for a few more words. Unexpectedly, after listening to him, the other party left without any response.

Gong Mingwei was left standing there alone, feeling very angry. He felt that Gong Chen was asking so many questions on purpose to make fun of him.
