Chapter 341 fulfilled all fantasies
"Are you alright?" Chris was startled and quickly patted his back.
Upon hearing this, Third Uncle and Huo Tingzhou exchanged a glance, and then both silently looked at the teacups in their hands.
"I...I'm fine." Chi Heng waved his hand, his face still flushed.
With so many people in front of him, he couldn't say anything too harsh.
But this is China after all, and there are some things that can't be said casually.
Especially topics like having a child out of wedlock, if heard by others, could damage her reputation.
So when Uncle San and Uncle Zhong went out to buy groceries, Chi Heng specifically called them aside.
"Okay, okay, I got it, I won't say it then!" Chris said, but her mood was clearly downcast after hearing that.
Chi Heng wanted to explain, but he didn't know where to begin.
Noticing that she was in a bad mood, Jiang Si casually asked, "What's wrong with you two? You were just chatting and laughing a moment ago."
"It's nothing," Chris sighed, resting her chin on her hand. "I was just saying that, I didn't do anything, look how scared he was!"
"Really?" Jiang Si felt that Chi Heng was being wronged. "He was clearly worried about you, okay?"
Chris didn't understand. "What's there to worry about? I only said I wanted to have a child, I didn't say he had to take responsibility. What is he afraid of?"
After saying that, he turned to Jiang Si and began to talk about the customs and traditions of their Gaul Kingdom.
They talked about everything from childbirth to single motherhood, with the speaker expressing great admiration for single mothers.
Jiang Si listened attentively and occasionally chimed in with a few words.
Her agreement immediately put Huo Tingzhou on high alert.
I always have this feeling that my wife is about to be kidnapped.
First of all, single mothers are great, but he still hopes to grow old with his wife.
"Wife." Seeing that the conversation was heading towards the topic of dating without getting married, Huo Tingzhou cleared his throat twice to interrupt, "Didn't you just say you had something to discuss with Chi Heng?"
Upon hearing this, Chi Heng also put down his teacup.
He and Chris came together today; delivering holiday gifts was just a formality.
In fact, he also had something he wanted to say to Jiang Si.
Coincidentally, they were talking about the same thing.
Unlike Jiang Si, who discovered a clue, Chi Heng deduced it himself.
“My mother has been planning this for so long. If Yan Weiliang really is the mole and he has been arrested, based on my understanding of her, she will definitely give me a new order.”
This was something he and Jiang Si had planned together.
Remove the traitor and force his mother to be replaced.
Therefore, she would inevitably have to hand over something to Chi Heng.
Strangely, after learning that the mole had been eliminated, Chi's mother only scolded him silently over the phone.
This is very wrong.
This is completely out of character for her.
Therefore, Chi Heng guessed that Yan Weiliang was likely just a pawn they had put out to cover up their true intentions.
The real mole is someone else!
However, before he could say any of this, Jiang Si had already made a new discovery.
Now that we've identified who it is, the rest is pretty simple.
Jiang Si lowered her voice and revealed her entire plan.
After listening, Chi Heng thought for a moment and nodded in agreement, "Okay, I will cooperate fully, but please be careful in everything you do."
"Yes, don't worry."
After finishing our business, it was already quite late.
After his third uncle returned, Chi Heng stood up to say goodbye, saying, "Third Uncle, we'll be leaving now."
"Let's have a simple lunch here."
"No, Third Uncle." Chi Heng glanced at Chris beside him. "We have to go back to the embassy district later. We have an appointment to have dinner with her father today."
They could fool the spies around them, but they couldn't fool Chris's father.
There's another tough battle to fight tonight, and he has to be absolutely prepared.
Upon hearing that he was going to see his father-in-law later, the third uncle did not try to stop him.
"Then you should go quickly, and drive carefully."
"Understood, Third Uncle."
After seeing Chi Heng and the others off, it was almost lunchtime.
Since they were having a family reunion dinner that evening, they just had a simple lunch.
After lunch, Uncle San and Uncle Zhong took the two tired little ones into their arms. "Sisi, it's still early. Go back to your room and take a nap."
Jiang Si slept for less than four hours last night.
I spent the whole morning playing with the two little ones, and now I'm incredibly sleepy.
I had just lain down for a short while when Huo Tingzhou came back after cleaning up the dishes.
Jiang Si snuggled into his arms in a comfortable position. "You seem to have something on your mind."
It's not a question, but a statement of fact.
"Yes." Huo Tingzhou did not deny it, but he hesitated for a long time about how to bring it up.
Jiang Si didn't urge him.
If he's willing to talk, I'll listen.
If she doesn't want to talk about it, she won't press her for details.
Who doesn't have a little secret?
All she needed to know was that his heart and his money were with her.
Perhaps because she stopped asking, Huo Tingzhou suddenly felt uneasy.
"Honey, if I do anything wrong and you're not satisfied, just tell me."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Si, who had just been drowsy, blinked her eyes immediately.
After a pause, Huo Tingzhou added in a low voice, "In any aspect."
Seeing that his ears were all red, Jiang Si couldn't help but laugh.
She reached out and tugged at his cheek. "What are you thinking? He already has a girlfriend, why are you jealous?"
Huo Tingzhou squeezed her hand tightly. "I'm not jealous."
"Then how did you..."
Huo Tingzhou was silent for a moment, then spoke frankly.
He was worried that he wasn't doing well enough, and even more worried that he wasn't needed.
After all, his wife is beautiful, comes from a good family, and is very capable.
Even without him, she could raise her two children very well.
Thus, Jiang Si found out.
It turns out that all of this stemmed from a conversation I had with Chris that morning about single mothers.
However, it makes sense when you think about it.
In this day and age, divorce is seen as a terrible threat.
Even in later generations, in some remote areas, women are still taught that divorce is a shameful thing.
Jiang Si found it amusing.
Is it shameful for a man to commit domestic violence or have an affair, but it's shameful for a woman to get divorced?
I wonder which brilliant person came up with this idea.
So when Jiang Si heard what Chris said, she was moved to speak and ended up saying a few more words.
Unexpectedly, Huo Tingzhou overheard it.
I took it to heart.
“You only heard half of what we said; you didn’t hear the rest.”
"What happened next?" Could he hear it?
Seeing his cautious expression, Jiang Si couldn't help but laugh.
“I said I’m not afraid of divorce because I have the ability and confidence to live well even without a man, but I will cherish a good man just as much.”
In later generations, she grew up in a very loving family.
The parents are loving and the family is harmonious.
Because I've seen it with my own eyes and experienced it firsthand.
Therefore, she clearly knows what kind of marriage is happy and what kind of man is worthy of her entrusting her life to.
At this moment, Jiang Si was quite certain.
This is the marriage she wants, and Huo Tingzhou is the man she wants.
As a man, Huo Tingzhou has the ability to stand on his own and handle things.
As a husband, he is devoted and considerate.
No matter what choice she makes, he will support her unconditionally and be her strongest backing.
He will remember every little thing he casually mentioned.
He would take the initiative to take care of her and comfort her when she was tired.
He will not hesitate to defend himself in front of outsiders.
It gave her a strong sense of security.
As a father, Huo Tingzhou is extremely dedicated and responsible.
In the limited time he had, he had done everything he could.
To be honest, after the child was born, Jiang Si was worried that Huo Tingzhou might unconditionally favor or dote on his daughter.
But he didn't.
He truly treated both children equally and loved them impartially.
She suddenly remembered that there was a time when Sui Sui was very clingy to her.
He won't let anyone else hold him; he only wants his mother.
At that time, she thought Huo Tingzhou would feel uncomfortable and that the birth of the child would take away his place in her heart.
Jiang Si even asked him about this.
But Huo Tingzhou said, "These are our children, the precious babies you carried for ten months. I love them all so much, how could I think like that?"
It can be said that Huo Tingzhou's appearance and his existence fulfilled all her fantasies about men.
