Chapter 235 When can you stop taking the medication?
"Are you in such a hurry to pay me back?" Huang Shan wasn't too happy to receive the money.
“Yes, it’s urgent,” Shen Yan looked up at Huang Shan. “Debt is like a thorn stuck in my heart. I’ll feel uncomfortable if I don’t pull it out.”
Huang Shan lowered her eyes and silently put the bank card away.
Shen Yan wanted to ask Huang Shan several times who the boy was today, but he didn't ask.
Their dinner ended quietly.
Shen Yan drove Huang Shan back to her apartment and parked the car.
Huang Shan opened the car door and left without looking back; she didn't want Shen Yan to see her cry.
Shen Yan sat blankly in the car, watching Huang Shan leave, feeling regret and resentment. Why did he think Huang Shan would wait for him in the same place?
Perhaps due to excessive emotional excitement, Shen Yan felt a dull pain in his stomach. He was very familiar with this pain; his stomach problems had flared up again.
Actually, he hasn't had a stomachache for a long time. It seems that he hasn't had one since Huang Shan came to his side, because Huang Shan would supervise his three meals a day.
After leaving Huang Shan, he resumed his irregular eating habits and his stomach problems returned.
He found some stomach medicine in his car, took two pills, and drove away after the pain subsided.
...
City B, the old residence of the Mo family.
Qiao Siying invited the two brothers, Mo Yan and Mo Chi, to her home for a dinner party over the weekend.
Qiao Siying looked radiant, completely different from before. Her good mood made her complexion look better.
Yuan Qian and Chu Rou surrounded Qiao Siying, and the three of them started gossiping.
The biggest gossip recently has to be the divorce of the Qi family. Chu Rou, as the daughter of one of the parties involved, has given the most authoritative information.
"My dad changed his name back to his original name. He said he wants to take my surname, hahaha!"
Chu Rou wasn't reserved at all, and even mentioned that her father had started a new company, "I'm my dad's boss now, hehe, just waiting to sit back and eat my fill."
Qiao Siying sighed, "Qi Feiyao usually seems like a very gentle person, how could she say such things to your father? No man could stand that!"
Yuan Qian chimed in, "That's quite hurtful. Let alone men in our circle, even the most ordinary man has his pride."
"Don't say that men care about face. We women care about face too. Having money doesn't mean you can belittle others. Things change, and no one should underestimate anyone else."
“Sister-in-law, you’re absolutely right,” Chu Rou smiled. “Look at me, I’m a perfect example. In less than a year, I went from having 200,000 yuan in savings to having assets worth billions.”
Yuan Qian and Qiao Siying were amused. "Rou Rou, you're such a rascal!"
"There's been some big news these past few days," Yuan Qian said mysteriously, "You know the Song family, right?"
Qiao Siying nodded. "I know a little."
Chu Rou shook her head. "I don't know anything about it."
Yuan Qian smiled and began to introduce the Song family to Chu Rou, "The Song family is in the real estate business and is considered one of the leading companies in City B."
"President Song and Mrs. Song have a son and a daughter. Their eldest daughter, Song Miao, is twenty years old, and their youngest son, Song Hao, is sixteen years old."
"I heard that Song Miao fell in love with Mo Chi at first sight," Yuan Qian teased Chu Rou.
Chu Rou raised an eyebrow. "There are so many women in B City who are deeply in love with Mo Chi! They're so young and already flirting with other women."
Qiao Siying hurriedly explained for her son, "Rou Rou, Xiao Chi is completely devoted to you. He used to ignore other girls, including Qi Lin. It was so annoying. If he hadn't gotten together with you, I would have thought he had a problem with his sexual orientation!"
Chu Rou's expression softened considerably. She recalled that when she first met Mo Chi, he always had that sour face towards women. It turned out he was annoyed by women.
“You’ll get used to it,” Yuan Qian comforted him. “There are plenty of women who want to seduce Mo Yan. As long as the man doesn’t take the bait, no matter how much a woman tries, it won’t work.”
Yuan Qian trusted Mo Yan quite a bit.
Chu Rou agreed with Yuan Qian, "Sister-in-law is right. But, is this really the big news you wanted to tell us?"
“Of course not,” Yuan Qian smiled, “I almost went off-topic. I heard that President Song brought home an illegitimate daughter these past few days, who is two years older than Song Miao.”
"Mrs. Song is going to cause a huge uproar, but Mr. Song still insists on bringing this illegitimate daughter home and even wants to hold a banquet to introduce her to the outside world."
Chu Rou became interested. "So President Song only brought back his daughter? What about the other woman? Is he keeping her on the side?"
“There was no woman involved. This daughter was just found. President Song didn’t even know about her before,” Yuan Qian told the gossip she had heard. “President Song initially wanted to marry the mother of this illegitimate daughter, but it seems that Mrs. Song did something to separate them.”
"So, no matter how much trouble Mrs. Song causes, Mr. Song doesn't take it seriously at all."
Um... Chu Rou sighed inwardly: "The drama in wealthy families is always so dramatic, that's so true!"
After listening, Qiao Siying frowned. She and Mo Anbang had almost been ruined by Jiang Simin. "It's really immoral to ruin someone's marriage like this. You won't get any benefit from it. President Song is just deliberately slapping Mrs. Song in the face."
"Let's go and see what's going on!" Chu Rou suggested.
Qiao Siying shook her head, "I won't go. It's too tiring to greet and chat with so many people. You young people will have more freedom if you go. Tell me about any exciting things that happen when you come back."
"Okay, then Rou Rou and I will go."
A few days later, the Mo family indeed received an invitation from the Song family.
However, only Chu Rou and Mo Chi can attend because Yuan Qian is pregnant.
Mo Yan spent a full half hour looking at Yuan Qian's pregnancy test results.
Yuan Qian couldn't stand it anymore and snatched the pregnancy test report away. "Are you going to memorize all of this?"
Mo Yan embraced Yuan Qian. "Yuan Qian, I'm going to be a father. Are you really willing to have my child?"
"When did I say I didn't want to have your child?" Yuan Qian looked up at Mo Yan, feeling that Mo Yan's question was strange.
After pondering for a moment, Mo Yan said, "I thought you had been using contraception all along. Not long after we got married, I discovered that you were secretly taking pills every night."
"You thought I was taking birth control pills?" Yuan Qian asked in surprise. "Then why did you ask me that back then?"
"I just think that you should have your reasons for not wanting to have children, and that's your freedom."
Mo Yan's answer left Yuan Qian speechless. She seemed to have found the reason for the barrier between her and Mo Yan.
She sighed deeply, "I had neurasthenia during that time and always had insomnia at night. Because it was our honeymoon and I was afraid of causing trouble, I took a sleeping pill after you fell asleep."
"Sleeping pills?" This answer surprised Mo Yan. "Then why haven't you gotten pregnant in the three years we've been married?"
Yuan Qian glanced at Mo Yan with a resentful look, "You sleep with me at the same time every month, perfectly avoiding my ovulation period. I thought you did it on purpose!"
"So that's how it is!" Mo Yan hugged Yuan Qian tightly. "Luckily, we found out not too late!"
News of Yuan Qian's pregnancy reached the Mo family.
Mo Anbang and Qiao Siying were overjoyed and have already started preparing the things the child needs.
Chu Rou was both happy and envious when she found out, and said to Mo Chi with a sigh, "When can we have a baby too?"
Mo Chi looked at Chu Rou with a resentful gaze, "If you want a baby, you have to let me have it. When are you going to stop taking your medication?"
