Chapter 272 Angry
A few days later, Su Qianqian leaned against the head of the bed, holding her mobile phone in her hand, browsing social media. News and discussions about her "suspected pregnancy, collapsed image, and being kept by a wealthy prince" were still overwhelming.
Many people ridiculed her: she looked pure on the surface but was promiscuous in private;
Some people also envy her: one trick wins the prize, mother is honored by her son;
There are more doubts about her playing the leading role in the campus drama.
[The crew of "That Summer's Wind" is really pitiful. The heroine got into this kind of trouble before filming even started...]
[So, if you establish a character, the whole thing will inevitably collapse. I feel sorry for the director and producer.]
[Is Su Qianqian's breach of contract considered? Can the crew claim compensation?]
Just as I was thinking about it, my phone vibrated. It was a message from my agent, Brother Wang, with an anxious and helpless tone:
[Qianqian, how are you? Are you feeling better?]
[Over at the crew, the director and producer just contacted me, and their tone was very negative. They hope we can give a clear answer as soon as possible, after all, the crew can't wait.]
[The penalty for breach of contract is a minor issue; the main thing is the reputation...]
Su Qianqian looked at the words, and her heart felt like it was being pressed down by a huge stone, heavy and suffocating.
This child came at a very wrong time.
It completely disrupted all her plans and pace.
The role she had worked so hard for, the campus drama she had longed to film, her career that had just started and was about to reach new heights... all seemed to have been put on hold, and might even be completely destroyed.
Grievances and confusion welled up in my heart.
The little girl felt a lump in her throat and tears began to well up in her eyes again.
At this moment, my stomach started to churn again.
"Um..." She quickly covered her mouth, her face turned even paler, but she couldn't utter anything.
This child was just making trouble for her. She could hardly eat anything and felt weak all over. It was more tiring than filming non-stop.
The bedroom door was gently pushed open.
Gu Chengyu held a bowl of light chicken porridge and carefully poked his head in.
He has been staying outside almost all the time these days, always listening to the noise inside and appearing immediately if anything goes wrong.
Seeing Su Qianqian covering her mouth, his heart ached, and he hurried in, put the bowl of porridge on the bedside table, and reached out to help her:
"Feeling bad again? Feeling like vomiting? Or are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
His voice was strained, and his large hands patted her back tenderly.
Su Qianqian didn't want to pay attention to him now, especially didn't want to appear so vulnerable in front of him.
She twisted away, avoiding his touch, her voice filled with tears and anger: "None of your business, get out."
If it weren't for him, how could she have fallen into such a dilemma and suffered such pain?
Gu Chengyu's hand froze in mid-air, a flash of hurt in his eyes, but more of it was heartache and self-blame.
He didn't dare to force her, so he could only withdraw his hand and stand by the bed, looking at her eagerly like a large dog that had done something wrong, coaxing her:
"Okay, I'll be out in a minute, but don't bear it if you feel uncomfortable. The doctor said that a bad mood will aggravate morning sickness."
"Can you eat something? I've been cooking this porridge for a long time. It's light and not fishy. Would you like to try it?"
Su Qianqian didn't say anything, but buried her face in her knees, her shoulders trembling slightly, as if she was crying.
Gu Chengyu's heart was broken when he saw this.
He took another tentative step closer, picked up the bowl of warm porridge, stirred it gently with a spoon, and blew on it to cool it down. His voice was so soft that it could drip water:
"Qianqian, just have a bite, okay?"
"I'll go out after you finish eating and leave you alone."
"Look, you haven't eaten anything in the past two days. Your face has turned pale. Even if you are angry with me, you can't be so hard on your body, right?"
His tone was full of humble pleading, without any trace of his usual arrogance.
Su Qianqian was actually hungry, but she had no appetite and felt suffocated.
But after hearing him coaxing her in such a humble voice, she slowly raised her head for the sake of her own body and the baby in her belly.
She glared at him with tearful eyes, but the glare had no power and made her look even more delicate and pitiful.
Gu Chengyu immediately seized the opportunity, scooped up a small spoonful of porridge, and carefully handed it to her mouth, his eyes full of expectation and nervousness: "Come on, open your mouth."
Su Qianqian hesitated for a moment, and finally opened her mouth.
The warm porridge slid into her mouth, light and delicious, and indeed aroused her appetite.
She ate in small bites.
Gu Chengyu was so happy to see that she was finally willing to eat. He fed her patiently, spoonful by spoonful, his eyes focused and gentle.
After feeding her half a bowl of porridge, Su Qianqian shook her head, indicating that she couldn't eat anymore.
Gu Chengyu did not force her. He quickly put down the bowl, handed her warm water to rinse her mouth, and used a hot towel to wipe her hands and face. His movements were delicate and clumsy, and it was obvious that he had never served anyone like this before.
After doing all this, he saw that she seemed to feel better. She leaned back on the headboard and closed her eyes to rest, then he breathed a sigh of relief.
But he did not go out immediately as he had promised. Instead, he dragged a chair and sat beside the bed, keeping a certain distance and just looking at her quietly.
Su Qianqian could feel his burning gaze, but she just didn't want to pay attention to him.
After a while, he reached out his hand and placed it on her belly, where his child was being nurtured.
"Qianqian, I know I was wrong, so wrong."
"I shouldn't have schemed against you. I shouldn't have let you get pregnant regardless of your wishes."
"You can punish me however you want, hit me and scold me."
"But please don't abandon him, and don't abandon me."
"I'll take care of your work. I'll pay the crew ten times the liquidated damages and restore their reputation."
"If you want to make a movie, once you've recovered, I'll invest in whatever you want to make. I'll give you the best scripts and the best team."
"Now, don't think about anything. Just focus on taking care of your health and let me take care of you, okay?"
His words were full of pleading and his eyes were full of love.
Su Qianqian closed her eyes and her eyelashes trembled.
In the end, there was no response.
Gu Chengyu was a little dejected, but he still comforted himself that it was okay.
The road to finding a wife is long.
But what he has is patience and sincerity.
As long as she and the baby are fine, she can let him do anything.
