Gu Jinghong paused for a moment, but did not hesitate.
"Old Chief, I really need to take care of my wife. Please grant me some leave."
The old leader sighed and didn't say much on the phone. Unable to persuade Gu Jinghong, he gave him a half-month vacation.
Gu Jinghong did not push his luck any further, just wanting to accompany Su Ying through this period of morning sickness.
What he didn't expect was that Su Ying's pregnancy seemed more serious than others. After two months, not only did it not get better, but it became even worse.
She would vomit after eating. She used to be of normal weight, but suddenly lost more than ten pounds.
Seeing her getting weaker day by day, Gu Jinghong became extremely anxious, and finally he took her to the hospital every day to get her to drink nutrient solution to maintain her health.
He even told Su Ying that he didn't want a child after she vomited violently again. He just wanted Su Ying to get up.
Su Ying pinched his face and said he was talking nonsense. Now that the children were here, how could he bear to give them up? She was looking forward to having these two children.
When Su Ying was in the second half of her pregnancy, Zhang Xiuying divorced her and hired a lawyer to sue her. Jin Gui did not take any property from her, and even the money he had spent on Xiao Cui was recovered by Zhang Xiuying.
When Zhang Xiuying appeared at Chen Shuyun's house with a relaxed look, Su Ying and the others realized that Zhang Xiuying had not divorced but was just trying to find a way to keep her property.
During the National Day holiday, the weather turned cooler, and Su Ying gave birth to a pair of twins, a boy and a girl, at Kyoto Hospital. The sister weighed 6.2 jin and the brother weighed 5.7 jin.
Gu Jinghong rushed to the hospital on the fifth day. Looking at Su Ying, who looked haggard on the hospital bed, he felt full of guilt.
This is how his job is. The task is heavier than the sky. Once he accepts it, he has to complete it before coming back.
He held Su Ying's hand tightly, with a hint of moisture in his resolute and courageous eyes.
"I'm sorry I came back late and left you alone... I'm sorry."
Su Ying held his face with both hands and smiled at him.
"Why don't you visit your son and daughter first when you come back?"
Gu Jinghong hugged Su Ying tightly in his arms and whispered.
"None of them are as important as you, Su Ying. Thank you for giving me a home and a pair of children."
Feeling the warm breath from him, Su Ying whispered.
"If you really want to thank me, you can take care of diapers for our son and daughter."
Grandma Gu opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she heard Gu Jinghong say a word in her heart.
"䗽"
Su Ying was satisfied, but the weakness after giving birth still made her sleepy.
She had been thinking about Gu Jinghong the whole time, and now that he was back, she felt at ease and relaxed all of a sudden, and fell asleep in Gu Jinghong's arms.
But she dreamed of her past life again. She saw her, the lonely and weak one in the orphanage, her working hard for a better life, her working part-time in school, her being admitted to university, her indulging in drinking for the first time, and her working in the hospital after graduation.
And later she finally became famous and was promoted to vice president and received applause.
She saw that for so many days and nights, she was always alone.
After the applause and glory faded, she still felt lonely and desolate when she returned home.
Su Ying slowly opened her eyes and saw Gu Jinghong sitting in front of the bed, resting with his eyes slightly closed. His angular face was tired, and there was a faint purple under his eyes.
One of his hands was still clinging to the stroller beside him, and both children were within reach by the bed.
Su Ying gently stroked his face, the warm and real touch made him feel at ease and satisfied.
This is what a complete and happy life is like: a career, a lover, children, family, and friends.
