Chapter 139 Proposal
Wen Niannian ran up to the second floor and was about to turn the button to open the bedroom door, but the door was opened first by a strong force.
Wen Ci's cough reached Nian Nian's ears.
When Wen Niannian looked up, she saw her mother in pajamas, with long hair draped over her shoulders, her fair cheeks flushed, and she was holding a mug in her hand. She spoke in a very hoarse voice, "Niannian, are you back?"
Wen Niannian asked with concern: "Mommy, do you have a cold?"
Wen Ci was stunned, touched her throat, and her cheeks turned even redder uncontrollably.
"Ahem, yeah, I'll just drink some hot water."
Wen Ci woke up with a dry mouth. She came out of the bedroom with a mug in hand. Unexpectedly, she ran into her daughter and changed the subject: "Isn't it already half past nine? You have to go to school tomorrow. Go back to your room and take a shower, otherwise you won't be able to get up for school tomorrow."
"Oh, okay."
Wen Niannian nodded obediently, "If the cold gets worse, you'll have to take cold medicine and go to the hospital for an injection."
"knew."
Wen Ci smiled warmly and watched her daughter run up to the third floor in her kindergarten uniform and into the bedroom.
Now, my daughter is in the middle class and has acquired basic self-care abilities.
I can take a bath and go to bed by myself.
Wen Ci went downstairs and got a cup of hot water with some throat-soothing honey in it.
When I returned to the room, Xie Peizhou also woke up.
He just didn't turn on the light. When she fell asleep, he held her in his arms and kissed her forehead, "Is my daughter back?"
"Um."
Xie Peizhou was surprised, "What's wrong with your throat?"
In the darkness, Wen Ci's cheeks burned, and she elbowed him, "What's wrong with my throat? It's all your fault."
Xie Peizhou reacted dazedly, chuckled, and kissed her mouth again, "Don't do this next time, just use your hands."
“…”
Wen Ci ignored him, snuggled in his arms, carefully avoiding the wound on his left chest, found a comfortable position, closed her eyes and continued to sleep.
"I'm so sleepy! I have to get up tomorrow morning to have a script meeting with the team..."
Xie Peizhou curled his thin lips and gently patted her back with his palm, coaxing her to sleep like he used to.
"A long time ago, there was a temple on the mountain. In the temple, there was an old monk who often told stories. He was telling stories about a long time ago, there was a temple on the mountain. In the temple, there was an old monk..."
The man's voice was soft.
Wen Ci was confused and speechless, "Xie Peizhou, after all these years, is this all you can do?"
Xie Peizhou was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Go to sleep, a long time ago..."
Although it was very old-fashioned, Wen Ci felt very relieved and safe, just like when Xie Peizhou came down from the sky on a thunderstorm night and held her, soaking wet, in his arms...
Soon, Wen Ci fell asleep.

The Lu family's old house.
Su Yuan sat on the toilet in the master bedroom, looking at the three pregnancy test sticks in her hand, feeling very solemn.
There is less than a month left in the three-month deadline signed with Lu Zhizhang.
Because her belly had not moved, the Lu family's attitude towards her became worse day by day. Even the servants became indifferent to her, completely lacking the care and love they had before.
"Pa pa pa" there was a slapping sound at the bathroom door, and a blurry figure of Lu Zhizhang was reflected on the glass door.
"Yuanyuan, are the results out? Five minutes have passed. Is it one bar or two?"
Su Yuan took a deep breath and looked at the test display area of the pregnancy test stick.
"Click——" the bathroom door was opened.
Lu Zhizhang looked at her expectantly with his dark eyes, "Are you pregnant?"
Su Yuan handed him the pregnancy test stick in her hand. "I took three tests. Two showed two lines, and one showed one line. The second line was very, very faint..."
"Two bars!" Lu Zhizhang looked at the pregnancy test stick in his hand, his breathing tightened, and the next moment he hugged Su Yuan excitedly, "You're pregnant, you're finally pregnant, I'm going to be a father, Yuanyuan, are you happy? We're finally going to have a child and become parents!"
Su Yuan was strangled by Lu Zhizhang and couldn't breathe, so she pushed him away in resistance.
"I……"
"Yuanyuan, I'm going to tell my parents the news first!"
Lu Zhizhang was overjoyed and completely ignored Su Yuan's depressed and complicated emotions. He turned around and went downstairs with the pregnancy test stick.
"I'm not happy at all."
Su Yuan watched him running away, staggered back two steps, and leaned her back against the cold wall.
She lowered her eyes to look at her flat belly, her eyes sore and aggrieved.
Before she got pregnant, she looked forward to it every day. If she couldn't get pregnant, she would have to face the Lu family's cold faces every day, and would also be forced by Lu's mother to drink all kinds of horrible and disgusting "tonics".
But now that the test showed two bars, she seemed only surprised for a moment, and then fell into deep despair, as if she had fallen into a quagmire from which she could never escape.
For the rest of her life, she would have to live with a man she didn't love and a child she didn't love, without any hope.
A wave of nausea washed over me.
Su Yuan's face changed, and she immediately covered her mouth and ran into the bathroom, hugging the toilet and retching.
Downstairs, the Lu family was filled with joy.
Father Lu: "The Lu family finally has an heir. I hope the first baby will be a boy so that the company can have a successor."
Mother Lu: "Zhi Zhang is finally going to be a father. Even if my sister is in the afterlife, she can rest in peace."
Lu Zhizhang: "Yes, I'm finally going to be a father. Yuanyuan is finally pregnant with my child!"

Lu Bingchen Apartment.
Xie Yiyi went to bed early tonight. After having lunch with Wen Ci and Xie Peizhou at noon, Xie Yiyi originally wanted to go fishing with Wen Ci and Xie Peizhou, but Xie Peizhou had "chest pain", so the four-person trip became a two-person trip.
Although outdoor fishing is fun, the temperature is low. When Xie Yiyi came back, she had a slight cold. Lu Bingchen took her temperature, gave her some medicine and let her go to sleep.
At this time, in the study.
A message popped up on Lu Bingchen's WeChat: [Su Yuan is pregnant.]
WeChat is a mutual friend of him and Lu Zhizhang in the circle. He hasn't sent a message to her for eight hundred years, but suddenly she sent him this message. Lu Bingchen knew without thinking that it was Lu Zhizhang who specifically asked him to convey it.
Is it showing off?
Do you think you beat him?
When the words came into view, Lu Bingchen's emotions remained unchanged.
I just clicked on the settings and deleted this useless mutual friend.
Since we have severed ties with the Lu family, we must do it completely.
Lu Bingchen had no intention of caring about the Lu family's affairs at the moment. He was busy preparing for Xie Yiyi's proposal...
Xie Yiyi likes yellow roses.
I like the international singer Meimei.
I also like romantic concert proposals...
He secretly watched her Douyin video a few days ago and typed in "proposal". Big data would then make recommendations based on the user's preferences. Eight out of ten proposal videos showed singers singing love songs suitable for proposals at concerts, with the man kneeling down on one knee and proposing to his girlfriend.
Judging from the video, it is indeed very romantic.
Therefore, Lu Bingchen also planned to arrange a concert to propose to Xie Yiyi.
The theme of the concert is "Yellow Rose" and the singer is the international superstar Mei Mei. As for the concert tickets, Lu Bingchen decided not to sell them to the public and gave them all to Xie Yiyi's relatives and fans who have always loved her.
Let all those who love her accompany her to witness her happiness.
Time passes by every second.
Two o'clock in the morning.
Lu Bingchen took off his headphones, rubbed his slightly sore brow, and said to the person in charge of the wedding team, "Let's stop here for today. Thank you for your hard work. To keep it a secret from my girlfriend, I'll call you tomorrow night."
The person in charge on the other end of the phone was very respectful.
Although I am bald from working overtime.
But the boss gives a lot.
"Mr. Lu, your love for your girlfriend is truly enviable! I believe this proposal will surely move and delight Miss Xie."
Lu Bingchen curled his lips, "Thank you."
After coming out of the study, Lu Bingchen washed up on his side before going back to his bedroom to sleep.
Xie Yiyi was sleeping soundly on the bed, perhaps because the cold medicine had a sleeping pill component.
My forehead and back were sweating.
Lu Bingchen wiped her with a towel before kissing her forehead, holding her in his arms and turning off the night light.
In the darkness, the man looked forward to it, "When will we have a child?"
This was the first thought that came to his mind when he received the news that Su Yuan was pregnant.
-
The next morning.
Su Yuan was taken to the hospital by Lu Zhizhang for examination.
After all, Lu's mother was an experienced person, and she knew that the pregnancy test stick was not accurate, so she went to the hospital for a check-up to feel relieved.
In the car, Lu Zhizhang saw the worry in her eyes, held her hand and asked, "What's wrong?"
Su Yuan forced a smile and said, "What if the pregnancy test is inaccurate and I'm not pregnant? Will you..."
Su Yuan thought about Lu Zhizhang and the Lu family's attitude towards her in the past two months.
Lu Zhizhang confidently interrupted her, "How could the test be inaccurate? You took three tests, and two showed two bars, so you're definitely pregnant. Don't be nervous, going to the hospital is just a formality. We've been trying to get pregnant for two months. Don't you believe in my ability?"
"I've worked so hard these past two months, how come there's no harvest?"
Lu Zhizhang patted her hand, told her not to think too much, and told the driver to drive faster and get to the hospital as soon as possible.
He also said that after the examination, he could take Su Yuan to visit her favorite luxury goods counter and give her whatever gift she wanted.
Half an hour later, the two arrived at the hospital.
Lu Zhizhang accompanied Su Yuan to do a series of examinations, and suddenly his face turned blue. "Yuanyuan, I must have been too excited last night. I couldn't sleep all night and caught a cold. I'm going to the bathroom."
Su Yuan took the test report from his hand and said, "Then you go ahead. I'll go to the specialist clinic with the nurse first."
Lu Zhizhang strode towards the bathroom, "Okay, I'll be back soon."
Su Yuan glanced at his back and walked into the specialist's office.
"Miss Su..."
In the clinic, the obstetrician and gynecologist, who was nearly fifty years old, pushed his glasses up on the bridge of his nose, flipped through several reports in his hand, and finally put them down slowly. He said gently: "According to the test report, you are not pregnant."
Su Yuan's heart sank suddenly, but there was also a hint of relief, and the next moment she felt a strong sense of unease.
If she didn't get pregnant, her situation in the Lu family would definitely be difficult in the future.
She curled her hands together, her face slightly pale. "How is that possible? I've checked and I'm fertile. My husband and I have been trying to conceive for over two months. I took three pregnancy tests yesterday, and two showed two bars... I get nauseous when I smell fishy things, and I'm already experiencing morning sickness."
The obstetrician and gynecologist said, "In medicine, this is called a false pregnancy. It means that you or your family members are too eager for you to get pregnant, and your body is overwhelmed, so the symptoms of a false pregnancy occur."
"As for the fact that you haven't gotten pregnant after two months of trying, you have a fertile constitution, but what about your husband? Has he had a checkup recently? Perhaps the problem lies with your husband..."
The obstetrician gently consoled her, "Ms. Su, you're just under too much pressure. First, relax. Then take your husband for a physical examination to increase the chances of success in pregnancy. Furthermore, with advanced medical technology, the success rate of artificial insemination is very high, though women will suffer a lot."
…
When Lu Zhizhang rushed back, Su Yuan just came out of the clinic.
The man went over to her happily, "Yuanyuan, how's the result? Is the baby healthy? Did the doctor tell me if it's a boy or a girl?"
Su Yuan's pupils flickered for a moment, and she returned to hold Lu Zhizhang's hand. "The results are good, the baby is healthy, but the pregnancy was too short, less than two weeks, so it's impossible to tell it's a boy."
Lu Zhizhang excitedly hugged Su Yuan and kissed her, "I told you, you must be pregnant. I'm going to be a father, Yuanyuan, I'm finally going to be a father!"
Lu Zhizhang was as excited as he was last night. He immediately called his mother to tell her the good news!
Mother Lu was very happy. "Yuanyuan is pregnant now. Diet is very important. I immediately asked the cook to prepare nutritious meals for Yuanyuan. By the way, when will you be home?"
Lu Zhizhang: "Isn't it urgent? I plan to take Yuanyuan out for lunch, and then take her shopping to buy some jewelry."
"That's right, Yuanyuan is now a hero in our family!"
Lu Zhizhang hung up the phone and said, "Yuanyuan, let's go eat your favorite private Cantonese cuisine at noon."
Su Yuan felt like there was a heavy stone pressing on her heart, and her breathing was heavy.
She forced a smile and said, "Zhi Zhang, I'm a little tired and want to go home and rest."
When Su Yuan said this, she was a little worried that Lu Zhizhang would get angry, but she didn't expect Lu Zhizhang to look at her gently. "Go home if you're tired. I'll send someone to pack up some of our homemade Cantonese dishes and take them home for you to eat after you've rested."
After returning to the Lu family, Su Yuan went straight back to the bedroom.
Lu Zhizhang was originally accompanying her in the bedroom, but was driven out by Su Yuan on the pretext of wanting to sleep.
After Lu Zhizhang left, Su Yuan sat up from the bed and grabbed her hair in despair.
What should I do? What should I do... ?
False pregnancy.
If she were discovered by the Lu family, she would be in big trouble.
She touched the phone beside the bed, opened WeChat, and subconsciously opened Xie Yiyi's circle of friends and watched.
Last night, Xie Yiyi updated his status again.
Her uncle had been discharged from the hospital, and the family had dinner together in a private room. Lu Bingchen sat next to her, looking at the camera with a doting and gentle look, his slender arm around her waist. They both wore the same G-brand couple's diamond bracelet on their wrists, and everyone was smiling happily.
In the afternoon, Lu Bingchen accompanied her to go fishing alone.
Su Yuan's eyes were sore and her heart ached, and her gaze fell on Lu Bingchen's face.
Once upon a time, all his tenderness belonged to her.
These sweet and happy scenes should all belong to her.
It was Xie Yiyi who stole her happiness!
Su Yuan felt a huge resentment in her chest. She touched her flat belly, and a crazy idea kept growing in her mind.
The Lu family wants an heir.
She has a fertile physique, but she and Lu Zhizhang have been trying to conceive for two months but still haven't been able to get pregnant. Is it because Lu Zhizhang is not good enough?
Lu Bingchen's child is also the heir of the Lu family!
In the afternoon, Lu Zhizhang went to the company.
Su Yuan went downstairs, took the car keys and was about to go out, but was stopped by Lu's mother: "Yuanyuan, you just got pregnant, where are you going?"
