At this moment, Su Zeqi's phone suddenly rang, breaking the silence. He glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was Madam Su calling, so he quickly picked up the phone.
"Zeqi, when will you come over?" Mrs. Su's anxious voice came from the other end of the phone.
"I understand. I'll be right back." After hanging up the phone, Su Zeqi turned around and looked at Huo Jianqiu affectionately. He placed one hand gently on her abdomen, a happy smile on his face, and said, "I'm very happy. We are going to have our own child."
Huo Jianqiu also responded with a smile: "Me too, this is really an unexpected surprise."

Su Zeqi held Huo Jianqiu's hand tightly as they walked into the Su family mansion. Perhaps the air from the air conditioner was too cool, Su Zeqi tilted his head slightly and asked her with concern, "Are you cold?"
"It's okay." Huo Jianqiu shook her head gently. She really didn't have any special feelings about the pregnancy. After all, it had only been more than ten days, and she didn't think she was that fragile. "Why don't you tell everyone later? I'm not mentally prepared yet..."
"What about my parents..." Su Zeqi frowned slightly and said with some concern.
"I'll talk to them." Huo Jianqiu took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
"I'll listen to you." Su Zeqi nodded with a gentle smile on his face.
At this moment, the two walked into the hall together, immediately attracting everyone's attention. Su Banxia, naturally the leader, looked at them curiously, "Brother and sister-in-law, are you two going on a date today? You're so late..."
"Brother, you came too late. You must drink three cups as punishment later!" Su Jingmo smiled.
"That's right, everyone has been waiting for you for a long time!" Su Banxia agreed with a smile.
"Okay, stop interrupting! Zeqi, Jianqiu, please sit down and eat." Yu Wantong said with a smile, her eyes full of concern and love.
Amidst the noise of the crowd, Su Zeqi and Huo Jianqiu slowly took their seats. Since Su Zeqi wanted to drink, Su Jingmo pulled him to the other side, while Huo Jianqiu was arranged to sit between Yu Wantong and Qu Qingdai.
When Su Zeqi was pulled away, he looked at Huo Jianqiu helplessly. Huo Jianqiu smiled and nodded to him, indicating that it was okay.
Yu Wantong affectionately took Huo Jianqiu's hand, helping her sit more comfortably, a warm smile on her face. Qu Qingdai watched all this with a gentle smile in her eyes.
"Where did you and your brother go today? Did you go to take wedding photos?" Qu Qingdai gently nudged Huo Jianqiu with her arm, and asked with a smile, with a bit of curiosity and anticipation on her face.
"No." Huo Jianqiu looked calm, shook his head slightly, and replied softly.
"Oh, so you're dressed like this, are you just going on a date?" Qu Qingdai raised her eyebrows slightly and continued to ask.
"That's about right." Huo Jianqiu pursed her lips and said with the same indifferent look.
"Hahaha, Jianqiu really doesn't want to tell everyone? This is such a happy event." Yu Wantong listened to their conversation with a warm smile on her face, her eyes narrowed into slits.
"What? I want to hear it too!" Su Banxia came over and said to Huo Jianqiu with a gossipy look on her face.
Qu Qingdai looked at Huo Jianqiu expectantly, her eyes gleaming with curiosity. Huo Jianqiu smiled helplessly at the sight of them both, a faint blush spreading across her face.
"Hahahaha... This is indeed good news. Wantong, you can announce it for them." Old Madam Su smiled happily, and the wrinkles on her face smoothed out.
"Okay, then let me..." Yu Wantong was about to speak with a smile on her face.
"Grandma, Mom..." Huo Jianqiu seemed to have anticipated what Yu Wantong was going to say. With a hint of anxiety on her face, she tried to stop her, "Stop talking for now, let's eat."
"What? Are you still shy?" Old Madam Su looked at Huo Jianqiu's anxious look and couldn't help but find it amusing. She smiled and teased, "After all, you are a girl, thin-skinned, and you know how to be shy."
After hearing what Old Lady Su said, Huo Jianqiu's face flushed, her eyes flickered, and she seemed a little embarrassed.
"No, everyone has been waiting for so long, Daidai and Xia Xia must be hungry." Huo Jianqiu said as he winked at the two of them, his eyes full of anxiety.
Su Banxia looked innocent, blinked her eyes, and said with a smile, "I'm not hungry yet."
"Me too!" Qu Qingdai said with a gleam in her eyes and a smile on her lips.
Huo Jianqiu looked at the two people's reactions and sighed helplessly. She had no choice but to keep winking at the other party, Su Zeqi.
But Su Zeqi was also in a dilemma. He looked at his mother and wanted to speak, but he didn't know what to say. He couldn't just go up and cover her mouth and drag her away. If he did that, his father who was sitting next to him would definitely beat him.
"Hey, look at what these two children are doing? Why are they exchanging glances?" Old Lady Su teased with a smile and loving eyes.
At this time, Yu Wantong also smiled and said, "These two kids are probably used to keeping a low profile and are embarrassed to talk about their affairs in front of others. However, I'd like to take this opportunity to tell you a good news. They've already gone to get their marriage certificate today!"
As soon as Yu Wantong finished speaking, there was a brief silence in the restaurant. For a moment, everyone seemed a little unresponsive.
