Chapter 204 I Shouldn't Make the Decision for You
After hearing this, Xiao Tiantian's eyes flashed with determination. She was very optimistic about me and said encouragingly: "You are still very talented in live broadcasting. Don't give up easily because of this matter! I believe you will shine in the competition."
I looked at Xiao Tiantian gratefully and nodded heavily: "Don't worry, I won't just let it go. I must fight for a place in this competition for myself."
In fact, I knew very well why Jiang Yichen didn't let me participate in this competition. It was simply because I was pregnant.
He thought I needed to rest and not overwork myself.
But he ignored the fact that for me, this is not just a competition, but also an opportunity to show myself and realize my self-worth.
Now that I knew the "cause" of the disease, I decided to find time in the evening to have a good talk with him.
I want to tell him that being pregnant doesn't mean I have to give up all my dreams and pursuits.
I will pay attention to my body, but I will never give up the opportunity to compete easily.
When I got off work in the evening, I was planning to go home by myself to calm down and sort out my thoughts. However, the male protagonist seemed to have a premonition and waited at the entrance of the company early, forcibly pulling me into his car.
Sitting in the car, I deliberately turned my head away from him, with an indifferent expression. The male protagonist seemed to notice my strangeness and tried to speak several times, but I responded with silence. The atmosphere suddenly became awkward and tense.
He sighed softly, trying to break the silence: "What happened today..."
I still didn't turn around to look at him, but replied coldly: "You don't have to say anything, you are the president, whatever you say is right."
After hearing this, the male protagonist was silent for a while, as if reflecting on his own behavior.
After a while, he slowly spoke: "I know my attitude today is a bit bad, but I am doing this for your own good. You are pregnant, and I don't want you to be too tired."
I turned my head and glared at him: "Then you can disrespect my opinion and make decisions for me without permission? Participating in the comprehensive anchor show is very important to me. I want to prove my worth through my own efforts."
The male protagonist looked at me, with a trace of guilt and heartache in his eyes: "I know, I was wrong. I shouldn't have made the decision for you. In the future, if there is anything, I will discuss it with you first and respect your opinion."
I secretly observed the male lead's expression and asked tentatively, "Then can I continue to participate in the comprehensive anchor show?"
The male protagonist remained silent and did not give me an accurate answer.
I sighed softly and said, "Okay, you drive. I'm tired and want to take a rest."
When we got back to Jiang's house, grandma kindly asked me to go to the kitchen to help cook, saying that she wanted to fry a fish and stew a delicious fish soup for the male protagonist to nourish his body. I readily agreed, after all, it is a very happy thing to be able to do something for my family.
When I walked into the kitchen, my grandmother had already prepared the ingredients. I stood in front of the stove and started frying the fish. However, as soon as I turned on the range hood, the strong smell of oil smoke hit me, making me feel uncomfortable instantly. I tried hard to endure and ignore the unpleasant smell, but unexpectedly, as the oil temperature rose, the smell of oil smoke became stronger and stronger. I finally couldn't help it and felt nauseous.
I quickly put down the shovel in my hand, ran to the toilet, and vomited while leaning on the toilet. When my grandmother heard the noise, she hurried over, patted my back, and asked with concern: "What's wrong, kid? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
I shook my head and forced a smile: "It's okay, grandma, maybe the smell of cooking fumes is too strong and I can't stand it."
Grandma looked at me nervously and asked with concern: "Momo, are you okay? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? Don't force yourself."
I calmed down for a while, forced a smile, and comforted grandma: "Grandma, I'm fine, maybe my stomach is a little uncomfortable, it will be fine in a while."
But grandma didn't seem to believe me completely. She asked tentatively, "Are you... pregnant?"
I was shocked and quickly denied it: "No, grandma, don't think too much about it."
But grandma obviously didn't want to let this topic go so easily. She said earnestly: "Don't be careless. Health is the capital of revolution, especially at your age now. What if something goes wrong? How about I ask someone to call a doctor to check you out?"
At this moment, Jiang Yichen pushed the door open and heard our conversation. He walked quickly to grandma and whispered to her, "No need to check, she is indeed pregnant."
When grandma heard this, a smile of surprise instantly blossomed on her face, but then she pretended to be angry and said, "Why do you want to hide this from me, kid? This is a big happy event for our family!"
Jiang Yichen quickly came to my rescue: "Grandma, it's not stable yet. We didn't dare to tell you because we were afraid you would worry in vain."
Grandma was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. She quickly ordered the servants: "Quick, go and change my granddaughter-in-law's diet to pregnant women's meals, the most nutritious ones. Also, lay down thick carpets in the house so that she can walk more easily. Oh, and find some fitness equipment suitable for pregnant women so that she can exercise properly at home."
I felt mixed emotions as I listened to my grandmother's special care for me and my children.
I didn't want this child at first, but seeing my grandma so happy, I started to hesitate again. I smiled awkwardly and said, "Grandma, there's no need to be so troublesome. I..."
Grandma interrupted me and said, "How can this be called trouble? You are my precious granddaughter-in-law, and you are pregnant with the flesh and blood of our Jiang family! This is what we should do."
Grandma ignored my dissuasion and insisted on watching the servants prepare everything for me. Her joy and anticipation were beyond words. I stood aside, watching this scene, feeling mixed emotions. I couldn't help but turn around and blame Jiang Yichen: "Why did you tell grandma about your pregnancy? You knew that you were going to marry Lin Nan soon!"
Jiang Yichen's expression became complicated. He explained softly, "Grandma has always hoped to have a great-grandson. Now she finally got her wish. I think she should know the good news. Besides, she is one of your closest people. You should also want her blessing and support."
I listened to his explanation, but my dissatisfaction did not diminish at all: "Blessings and support? When you knew you were going to marry someone else? Then what about me and the baby in my belly? Spare tires?"
