Chapter 153 Protect Your Belly
The family sat around the dinner table, eating dinner and talking about trivial things happening around them.
Of course, it was basically Lin Anan and the other two who were talking, and Chu Mingzhou was listening.
He lives a simple life and there is not much to tell, and it is not appropriate for him to talk too much with his family about what happens in the army.
Lin Anan mentioned it and said that she would go to the publishing house next Monday to take a look.
Chu Mingzhou glanced at her and asked, "Do you need me to go with you?"
Lin Anan smiled and waved her hand, "No, I just want to ask about publishing issues, and the transportation is convenient, I can do it by myself."
Chu Mingyu opened his eyes wide and looked at Lin Anan curiously.
Chu Minglan finished eating, put down her chopsticks, and exclaimed, "Wow, my sister-in-law is going to publish a book!"
Lin Anan didn't comment, "It's not even close, but sister-in-law will try her best."
"Sister-in-law, when your book is published, I want to be the first to read it. I will also show it to my classmates and tell them that it was written by my sister-in-law."
"Okay, when the book is published, Xiaolan will be the first reader."
The atmosphere at the dinner table became more relaxed and cheerful. Everyone was talking at once, and all their attention was drawn to Lin Anan's plan to publish a book.
Since school just started on Friday, there is no holiday on Saturday this week, so the two little ones have to go to school as usual.
Lin Anan took advantage of the quiet time at home to organize all the manuscripts.
Both books are bilingual manuscripts.
A book named "Firefly" is a creation centered around contemporary social changes. It reflects the changes of the times through individuals, and indirectly shows the development and changes of China, and the strength of the nation and the people.
Positive, optimistic, strong-willed and full of hope.
The light of a firefly is enough to start a prairie fire.
Another book is called "Spring Letter", which is an inspirational story of growth. It tells the struggle history of a couple and reflects the struggle story of ordinary people in the wave after great changes. It also has a strong romantic color and directly tells the love of revolutionary friendship.
Two people, three meals, four seasons.
A lamp, a home.
The most true and pure, forever and ever.
Early Monday morning, Lin Anan washed and dressed up, put on some light makeup, put on a new coat, and combed her hair into a loose low bun. She looked very pure and had a bit more femininity.
Chu Mingzhou's gaze stayed on her for a long time, "I'll take you there."
Lin Anan:?
He clearly said last night that he had something to do in the camp, so how come he is free now?
"Really, no need. I'm just going to submit a manuscript. I'll be back soon. It's not far."
Chu Mingzhou was silent for a moment, then walked forward, took Lin Anan's hand, and clasped their fingers together. "It's been a mess outside lately. I'll take you there."
"You're not busy in the camp?"
"Well, it's not busy. They are all small matters. The instructor can do it."
Lin Anan glanced at him and didn't want to tell him the whole story, "Okay~"
Chu Mingzhou thought about it and decided to take the bus. It was cold outside and riding a 28-inch bicycle would be very painful.
Buses have always been the gathering place for relatives and friends.
As soon as the big Captain Chu got on the bus, the lively atmosphere inside the bus became quiet for a moment...
Someone immediately murmured, "Captain Chu is not in the camp at this hour, why is he out with his wife?"
"I guess he's going to get a divorce!"
Lin Anan: “…”
The two withdrew their divorce application a long time ago, but many people didn’t know about it. You can’t use a loudspeaker to shout about it everywhere, right?
This matter was diverted by Tang Jingqiao. As for the melons, the aunts ate whatever they had without knowing why.
The couple who are at the center of the storm are the talk of the town. Now that the person is standing in front of them, they can't help but whisper a few words to each other, right?
The bus started moving a little too fast. Before Lin Anan even sat down, the bus shook and she staggered...
Chu Mingzhou supported the person gently, and his other hand was clearly placed on Lin Anan's stomach.
Lin Anan heard several gasps and she was also confused!
"Be careful."
As soon as the two of them sat down, the style of the gossip painting changed.
They tried their best to keep their voices down, but Lin Anan still heard it!
"Hey~ Captain Chu's wife, is she... pregnant?"
"Look at Captain Chu's cute look, she must be pregnant."
"So... this marriage won't end in divorce?"
"Bah, can't you just hope for the best for others? There are not many people left in the Chu family. It's not easy to get pregnant with a baby, shouldn't he take good care of it and raise it well? Why are you still getting a divorce? His wife is pretty good, but she's a little weak."
Lin Anan was confused. She glanced sideways at Chu Mingzhou and saw a faint smile on his face. He was obviously in a good mood.
Lin Anan nudged him with her elbow and glanced back, signaling him to listen quickly.
Chu Mingzhou didn't even lower his voice. He held her hand and patted the back of her hand. "Be careful. I'm with you. You are not alone now."
Isn't God a person?
Could Chu Mingzhou utter such tea aroma and ambiguous words?
As soon as he said this, the whole carriage was in an uproar. No one dared to say anything loudly, but they were all arguing with each other.
This is a huge misunderstanding!
Lin Anan's face instantly turned red to her ears. She felt embarrassed and anxious. She lowered her voice and said to Chu Mingzhou: "What are you talking about? How could I..."
Chu Mingzhou couldn't help but laugh at her shy look. He closed his eyes and rested, holding her hand without letting go, and just placed it on his knees. "I'll do it as soon as possible."
Lin Anan had no choice but to let everyone do whatever they want.
If we can't bow to fate, then let's just glare at him!
After a while, the bus arrived at its destination.
Chu Mingzhou protected Lin Anan and carefully took her out of the car.
That look... is quite pretentious anyway.
Those who knew thought that the two were going to the publishing house, but those who didn’t know thought that they were going for a prenatal check-up!
Lin Anan felt amused. She had never seen Chu Mingzhou with this face before. It was quite interesting.
Yuanying Publishing House is a two-story building located on Qingsong Road not far from the city center. It is surrounded by open space and has a good environment.
Lin Anan found that it was right to bring Chu Mingzhou with her. At least when ordinary people saw him standing there in his military uniform, they were all polite to him.
The two entered Yuanying Publishing House. The staff at the front desk greeted them with a smile when they saw them coming. "Excuse me, comrades, what can I do for you?"
"Hello, is Editor Liu Weidong here? I'm here to submit an article."
The staff member smiled and replied, "Editor Liu is here. May I ask your name? Do you have an appointment with Editor Liu?"
"My last name is Lin An'an. Comrade Pang from Xinhua News Agency introduced me to you."
The staff member nodded and said, "Ms. Lin, please wait a moment. I will go and inform Editor Liu."
After saying that, the staff member walked quickly into the inner room.
After a while, a middle-aged man wearing glasses came out with a smile on his face. "You are Comrade Lin who wants to submit a bilingual manuscript, right? Hello, I am Liu Weidong."
"Editor Liu, nice to meet you."
Liu Weidong smiled and welcomed the person inside. "Nice to meet you. Come, let's go to the reception room to discuss in detail." He looked at Chu Mingzhou again, "This is..."
Lin Anan quickly introduced: "This is my lover Chu Mingzhou."
Liu Weidong shook hands with Chu Mingzhou, "Comrade Chu, hello!"
The three of them arrived at the reception room, and were immediately served tea with a very nice attitude.
