Despite the heavy workload at the headquarters in the capital and the hostility from everyone on the crew towards Fu Hanzheng's male assistant, who was always staring at their director, Fu Hanzheng still insisted on staying on set to accompany the pregnant Gu Weiwei.
Gu Weiwei usually just laughs off the crew's occasional advice to fire her male assistant.
Quit?
How do I quit?
That's the father of her child, how could she possibly quit?
Fu Hanzheng would accompany her to the film set most of the time. Occasionally, when there was work that needed his attention, he would take his laptop to his van to handle it while she was filming.
After finishing the task, he will promptly return to his assistant position.
However, Gu Weiwei's pregnancy symptoms became even more severe.
At first, I only experienced morning sickness, but gradually I became nauseous even when I saw slightly oily food for lunch and dinner, and I ate less and less.
Every day on set, I force myself to stay alert and finish filming, but as soon as I get to the car after work, I'm so tired that I don't want to move at all.
Fu Hanzheng felt a pang of heartache. Seeing her lean against him and doze off as soon as she got into the car, he asked her gently.
"How about I take you to the hospital to get checked out?"
Yuan Meng, who was driving, sighed helplessly, "These are all normal symptoms of pregnancy. Going to the hospital won't help. Do you think we can give her medicine or injections now?"
People who become fathers for the first time are always so overly nervous.
Especially someone like Fu Hanzheng, who gets anxious even over the smallest illness or injury she has.
"No need, I'll just go back and lie down for a while," Gu Weiwei said weakly, her eyes half-closed.
In the early stages of pregnancy, it's easy to feel tired and sleepy. I also need to maintain a high level of concentration when I'm at work every day, so I feel especially tired when I relax after work.
Fortunately, the filming went smoothly, and we will be able to finish and return to Beijing in about ten days.
Fu Hanzheng put one arm around her and pulled her close, then gently kissed her forehead with tenderness.
"Go to sleep."
At this time, she should have been at home resting during her pregnancy, but she had to force herself to stay here and complete her work.
Gu Weiwei leaned lazily against him and fell asleep within minutes.
Back at the apartment, Fu Hanzheng didn't wake her up. Instead, he spent a lot of effort carrying her out of the car and letting her sleep for another two hours in the apartment.
Gu Weiwei woke up; it was already dark.
Fu Hanzheng was looking at an important document sent by the company on his computer when he heard a noise from the bed and turned his head to look.
"woke up?"
Gu Weiwei sat on the bed, stunned for a moment, "Why didn't you call me?"
Fu Hanzheng brought her a glass of water. "You were sleeping so soundly, I didn't have the heart to wake you. Have dinner when you wake up."
Gu Weiwei drank some water, got up, put on her slippers, and went to the living room with her.
The maid had already prepared dinner and left long ago.
Fu Hanzheng heated the dish in the microwave before serving it.
"You've been so tired these past two days, shouldn't we stop filming for another day before shooting again?"
He always looks listless when he goes out and is always drowsy when he comes back from work, but he gets into full working mode as soon as he gets to the set.
Gu Weiwei shook her head, "It'll be a relief to finish filming sooner."
There are only about ten more days of filming left, and once we take a break, we'll have to postpone our return trip.
Moreover, if the filming time is extended, then post-production and the release date will also have to be postponed.
I'm afraid that by then my belly will be showing, and it will be inconvenient for me to appear in front of the media.
"If you feel unwell at all, be sure to tell me immediately," Fu Hanzheng instructed with concern.
"Mm." Gu Weiwei nodded.
