“If you can’t handle it, you can ask your mother-in-law, my mom, and my sister for help.”

"...Let's have one first!"

Yu Sheng's voice wasn't loud, but her attitude was firm. Gu Ye didn't say much, just affectionately said "okay".

He had barely finished speaking when the waiter pushed the food cart in.

Gu Ye pointed to the seat in front of him and said, "Put my portion here!"

The waiter said respectfully, "Yes, sir."

When the waiter served the food, Gu Yechong said to Yu Sheng, "I'm going out to make a phone call, I'll be right back."

After Yu Sheng nodded, Gu Ye got up and left the private room.

As soon as he went outside, he lit a cigarette, took a few puffs, and then dialed Yu Jing's number.

Yu Jing didn't sleep well at Yu Sheng's place last night either. After returning home, she was called away by several wives to play cards. She had just gotten back and was planning to wash up and go to bed early when she saw Gu Ye calling. Her heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the two of them had started fighting again?

Yu Jing nervously pressed the answer button.

"Hello?"

"Mom, did I bother you?" Gu Ye asked politely.

"No, what's wrong?"

"Nothing much, it's just that Sheng Sheng just told me she wants to have a baby with me."

After hearing this, Yu Jing patted her heart, which had been hanging in mid-air, and said, "You scared me to death! I thought you two were fighting again."

Seeing Yu Jing's reaction, Gu Ye asked, "You know about this?"

Yu Jing hesitated for a moment before explaining the reasons why Yu Sheng wanted to have his child.

Gu Ye sneered upon hearing this, thinking: I knew she would suddenly want to have a child with me! It turns out it was for Xiao Cheng's surgery. Once Xiao Cheng has the surgery, even if she's pregnant with my child, she will definitely divorce me!

Yu Sheng, am I right? Your plan is pretty good, but do you really think you can divorce me? Even if you weren't pregnant with my child, I wouldn't divorce you. If you are pregnant, then it's even more of a pipe dream, unless—I'm dead!

Although Gu Ye knew Yu Sheng's little secret, he didn't show it when he returned to the private room. He was just as excited as before, and spent the whole meal discussing having children with Yu Sheng.

His excitement was genuine; although Yu Sheng had ulterior motives in having his child, it didn't affect his mood.

In Gu Ye's view, although the meal didn't start well, the ending exceeded his expectations.

On the way home, he continued to talk about the same topic with Yu Sheng, but Yu Jing was already getting annoyed. To stop him from continuing, she suddenly interrupted him and said, "I've declined Teacher Wu's offer!"

Yu Sheng's sudden words calmed Gu Ye's feverish mind. He said, "Teacher Wu called me and told me."

Yu Sheng didn't respond, and the atmosphere in the car suddenly became heavy and oppressive, making Yu Sheng feel very uncomfortable.

As she turned to look out the window to distract herself from her discomfort, Gu said, "Since you don't plan to divorce me now and want to have a child with me and continue living together, then go for therapy! I'll talk to Teacher Wu!"

Yu Sheng opened her mouth, but for a moment she was speechless.

She couldn't possibly tell him the truth, could she?

If she tells him, he'll absolutely go crazy!

Yu Sheng bit her lip in frustration and looked out the window...

Yu Sheng's compromise was within Gu Ye's expectations. He glanced at her, his face full of cunning and smugness.

It was already past nine o'clock. Except for special areas, most areas had already passed the peak traffic period, so the way back was much smoother than the way there.

As they approached Xinhe Bay, Yu Sheng said, "I can go to psychological counseling, but you can't force me anymore. If you do what you did to me yesterday again, I..."

Before she could finish speaking, Gu Ye said, "If I do what I did to you yesterday again, I will divorce you without you even having to say it... Sheng Sheng, what I did to you yesterday was purely an impulsive act. Please forgive me."

When Yu Sheng heard Gu Ye say this, she wanted to ask him if he believed that she and Shang Yan had nothing going on.

The words were on the tip of her tongue, but she hesitated... What if he still suspected her and Shang Yan? If she asked him that question, firstly, it would make him unhappy, and secondly, it was unknown what he would say. Why make herself unhappy?

Yu Sheng sneered at the thought. She used to be so unrestrained in front of him, saying and doing whatever she pleased; now she was hesitant and cautious…

Why did things turn out this way between them?

He was the man she once saw as her savior!

Yu Sheng felt melancholy and depressed.

It felt like a mountain was pressing down on my chest.

Seeing that Yu Sheng didn't speak, Gu Ye asked again, "Is it okay?"
