Chapter 163 Is This Pregnancy?
Shuang Xu was socializing with Shen Yu and Fu Yun, and Lu Manman, who was feeling bored, came over.
"Did you have a quarrel with my cousin?"
"No." said Shuang Xu.
"Then why hasn't he coaxed you into submission after spending the whole afternoon?"
Shuang Xu said calmly: "Maybe he was busy coaxing others this afternoon."
"No way, he came looking for you as soon as I got home." Lu Manman said, "You didn't see it, my cousin attacked everyone indiscriminately and hurt everyone. Miss Lu was almost crying because of him. My mother gave them gifts and apologized to make them calm down."
Shuang Xu paused. Did He Tingzhou come to see her in the afternoon?
At this moment, someone came up to her and whispered in her ear, "Miss Song, Mrs. Lu is not feeling well and wants to ask Dr. Song to come over and take a look."
...The name of Dr. Song was like a secret code, telling Shuang Xu that someone was causing trouble.
No one knew what tricks He Tingzhou was playing, but since it involved He Wenjing, Shuang Xu still informed Fu Yun and Shen Yu and rushed over to check the situation.
"Aunt He seems to be feeling unwell. I'll go over to take a look."
She was led into a lounge, where she saw He Wenjing sitting on the sofa with a glass of red wine in her hand.
I knew it was a scam.
Not seeing He Tingzhou, she asked politely, "Aunt He, what's wrong with you?"
Without warning, a hand stretched out from behind the door, grabbed her waist and dragged her over. She reflexively let out a low cry, and her back hit the broad and hard chest, and a familiar breath enveloped her.
He Tingzhou closed the door with his backhand and hugged her from behind: "Her nephew is not feeling well."
Shuang Xu turned his head and raised his expressionless face: "What's wrong with you?"
"Doctor Song, please help me." He Tingzhou took her hand and pressed her fingers on his wrist.
A strong and steady pulse beat under Frost Xu's fingertips. It came from the most primitive pulsation of his body, carrying his own wild sense of power, transmitted from under the skin, and gradually mixed with Frost Xu's heartbeat.
Her inexplicable anger was inexplicably dissipated in this resonant beating.
He Tingzhou suddenly asked, "It's been so long, is it pregnancy?"
"…Are you sick?"
He Tingzhou: "What? Twins?"
Shuang Xu really couldn't hold back her smile. When she smiled, her almond-shaped eyes curved and light overflowed from her clear pupils.
"Finally smiled?"
In order to make her laugh, he really tried every trick in the book.
"I'm too lazy to pay attention to you." Shuang Xu said.
"Ignore me and go deal with Ms. He." He Tingzhou gently pushed her waist with his fingertips, "She has something to tell you."
He Wenjing couldn't bear to watch it anymore. She finished the red wine in her hand and was too embarrassed to say anything.
She would never have imagined that her unruly nephew would behave so shamelessly when he was with Shuang Xu.
Shuang Xu sat down opposite He Wenjing: "Aunt He, what do you want to tell me?"
"I want to explain to you what happened this afternoon." He Wenjing said, "I arranged the meeting on my own initiative. Tingzhou didn't know about it beforehand, and neither did Manman. I was afraid that she would tell you, so I sent her away."
"I know. You think I'm not good enough for him, so you want to find someone who is suitable for him. From your perspective, I can understand."
Shuang Xu's tone was quite calm. She neither resented He Wenjing's contempt nor was she angry at her for interfering. Her sensible attitude made He Wenjing feel even more ashamed.
She moved forward and said earnestly, "Don't take what happened before to heart. Auntie formally apologizes to you. I was too picky. You two are in love with each other. As an elder, I should be happy for you and protect you."
This change in attitude was too sudden. In the afternoon, he had even given He Tingzhou a red line. Why did he want to escort them so soon?
She glanced at He Tingzhou oddly: "Can I ask what happened? Why did you suddenly change your mind?"
He Wenjing also glanced at her 1.88-meter-tall nephew with a pulse, and said desperately: "This medical miracle has happened, how can I not agree? You are the one that Tingzhou holds in his heart, so from now on, just treat me as your real aunt."
She changed so quickly that Shuang Xu couldn't adapt for a moment. She secretly wondered how He Tingzhou had convinced her. Did he cast a spell on her?
He Tingzhou leaned against the wall and criticized: "Isn't it too cheap for you to be an aunt? Where is the gift for apology?"
He Wenjing is here to attend the dinner, where can she prepare a gift at this juncture?
But the apology should be sincere. What she said before was really unpleasant to hear. It was Shuang Xu who was generous and magnanimous and didn't hold it against her. If it were someone with a smaller heart, she would cry and make a fuss, and stir up trouble beside He Tingzhou's pillow, and their aunt-nephew relationship would inevitably be affected.
Not only should we give Miss Lu a gift, but it should also be better to be justified.
He Wenjing simply took off the imperial green jade bracelet on her wrist. The bracelet was so green that it was juicy and clear. Even someone who didn't know much about jade could tell that it was a rare treasure.
"Today is too rushed, and I don't have time to prepare. I'll give you this bracelet, and I'll apologize to you. Can we put aside our past grudges?"
Shuang Xu said: "We can put aside the past grudges, but I don't want the gift anymore. Please ignore him."
The He family's dominance is in their genes. He Wenjing pulled her hand over. Her wrist was slender, so the bracelet was put on effortlessly.
Shuang Xu didn't even have time to refuse. After He Wenjing put it on, she patted the back of her hand and said, "If you don't accept it, I won't be able to close my eyes at night."
He Tingzhou said leisurely beside him: "You should keep it if I give it to you. Otherwise, she will sleep with her eyes closed at night and your uncle will be scared to death."
“…”
There were two knocks on the door, and Shen Yu came in. He was wearing a grey striped three-piece suit, looking elegant and refined.
He Wenjing leaned on the sofa the moment the door opened, rubbing her temples with her fingers: "Ayu is here."
The agility of the movements and the exquisite acting skills amazed Shuang Xu.
Shen Yu said: "Xiao Jiu said you are not feeling well, do you need to call a doctor?"
He Wenjing said: "Don't worry, it might be a little low blood sugar, just drink a glass of juice."
"Then you take a rest and call me if you need anything." Shen Yu remained expressionless, but in his heart he had already seen through her tricks.
She had hypoglycemia, so it was quicker and more effective to ask He Tingzhou to get her a piece of cake than to send someone to find Shuang Xu.
Besides, if she was really uncomfortable, she should have called Fu Yun or him, and it should never be the turn of Shuang Xu, whom she disliked.
Shen Yu glanced at the jade bracelet on Shuang Xu's wrist and his eyes paused briefly.
"Sheng'an and Qingmei are here, do you want to meet them?"
"Sister Qingmei is here?" Shuang Xu immediately stood up from the sofa.
Shen Yuqian smiled and said, "She asked about you as soon as she arrived. Go over and say hello."
When Shuang Xu passed by He Tingzhou, he grabbed her wrist.
He didn't stop me, but just made a request: "Kiss me before you leave."
Shuang Xu was always embarrassed to be intimate in front of Shen Yu and He Wenjing: "Don't make trouble."
He Tingzhou simply pulled her over, lifted her cheek, and lightly touched her lips.
"Okay, go ahead."
When Shuang Xu followed Shen Yu out, he leaned back against the wall, playing with something shiny in his hand.
Shuang Xu felt something was a little strange, but didn't react.
