The closest person...
Upon seeing these words, only one name came to Xu Wan's mind.
Seeing that Xu Wan looked unwell, Ling Ya couldn't help but ask with concern, "What did you write? Are you alright?"
"It's okay, it seems like it was sent to the wrong place." Xu Wan took the flowers over. "I'll just take them out and throw them away."
Ling Ya noticed that Xu Wan's expression was off, but she didn't want to talk about it, so she didn't ask.
Xu Wan walked to the door and casually threw the whole bouquet of flowers into the trash can next to her, but kept the card.
Back at the law firm, she took out the card and examined it carefully.
The handwriting on the card looks like ink; the characters are neat and strong, so it must have been written by a girl.
this……
Who could it be?
Who are the people closest to them?
Xu Wan couldn't think of anyone else besides Jiang Tingzhou.
But what did Jiang Tingzhou lie about to her about?
-
Jiang Tingzhou's birthday is August 20th.
It was a Sunday.
On Saturday evening, Jiang Tingzhou was working in his study, and Xu Wan was sitting next to him reading.
She glanced at her watch; it was already 11:30.
Normally, she would urge Jiang Tingzhou to go to sleep at this time, but tonight she continued reading calmly, as if she hadn't noticed the time at all.
The watch she bought for the man lay quietly in the desk drawer, waiting to be delivered at midnight.
Xu Wan stared at her watch, watching the time tick towards midnight...
"It's time to sleep." Jiang Tingzhou suddenly closed the computer in front of him and said to the woman, "Whether you're pregnant or not, you need to take care of your health and not stay up late."
"ah……"
Xu Wan looked at the clock, which showed 20 minutes left until 12 o'clock, and her expression became somewhat unnatural.
She tried to find some excuse to stall for time, but because she was bad at lying, she couldn't utter a single word.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Tingzhou put his hand on the woman's shoulder. "Are you impatient to find out if you're pregnant? Let's take a test now."
Xu Wan pursed her lips, forced to tell the truth, "No, I just wanted to wait until 12 o'clock to wish you a happy birthday."
"Shall we take a test while we're at it?"
"No, no need. How about we wait until your birthday night to test? If you're not pregnant, it might affect your mood..."
Over the past two weeks, Jiang Tingzhou hasn't said much, but Xu Wan can sense that the man is genuinely looking forward to the arrival of their child.
She knew the chances of getting pregnant on the first try were slim, and in order not to disappoint the man, she wanted to reveal the answer later.
How could that be?
Jiang Tingzhou sat on the edge of the woman's table, pulled her hand to his lips and kissed it gently. "Maybe our darling is being sensible and wants us to enjoy some more time together as a couple."
"Then... let's wait until midnight, and I'll be the first to wish you a happy birthday before I go to sleep."
Xu Wan earnestly stated her needs.
Jiang Tingzhou nodded, "Okay, I'm going to take a shower. If I'm not out of the bathroom by 12 o'clock, you can come in and call me."
Xu Wan blushed. "Then, then wash faster."
Looking at the woman's shy appearance, Jiang Tingzhou felt a surge of heat.
They've been married for two months, but they've only had sex twice, and their intimate contact hasn't been frequent, which is why Xu Wan blushes so easily.
But her appearance was the greatest temptation for him.
Jiang Tingzhou knew that having sex in early pregnancy was dangerous, and given his large size, the risk was even higher.
To avoid letting the woman see his lustful state, he quickly turned and went into the restroom.
Xu Wan only took the watch out of the drawer after hearing the sound of water.
This watch is worth 30,000 yuan, the most expensive thing she has ever bought in her life.
But when she thought about how An Yunya had bought a six-million-dollar watch as a gift for Jiang Tingzhou, she felt a little insecure.
Xu Wan sat on the bed in the bedroom, holding her watch, quietly listening to the sounds from the bathroom outside.
When the clock struck 12, there was a sound coming from the bathroom door.
Xu Wan stood up and immediately saw Jiang Tingzhou walking out of the bathroom.
The man wasn't wearing a bathrobe, only a towel tied around his waist. Water droplets, not yet dried, ran down his muscle grooves, and under the dim light, he looked so sexy that it made one want to swallow.
Xu Wan stared for three seconds before looking away, her face flushed, and asked, "Why did you come out like this?"
