Jiang Hua was picked up by Gu Yiming. She felt relieved to finally be free from her suppressed emotions, and was quite happy. However, still considering the true reason behind Qi Yanxu's invitation to this "trap," the two of them ended up having a long and fruitless chat, ultimately finding nothing of substance. Jiang Hua felt a little disappointed, as this matter was quite important, yet she seemed oblivious, as if the dinner was nothing more than that.
However, Jiang Hua wouldn't easily believe Qi Yanxu's words, so she continued to speculate. But she couldn't make any progress, leaving her somewhat confused. Yet, she felt she had no choice but to go through with it, attending a trap only to find she gained nothing. This was incredibly frustrating, and Jiang Hua was extremely disappointed. After all, it was clearly aimed at her, but Qi Yanxu liked her, so it didn't make sense. Jiang Hua completely sensed something was wrong.
It seemed as if there was someone else behind Qi Yanxu, but then again, there was no sense of it. Jiang Hua couldn't figure it out and had no clue what to do. She was still very grateful to Gu Yiming, after all, he found her so quickly after receiving the location and appeared in time to take her away, so Jiang Hua felt a strong sense of dependence on Gu Yiming.
Jiang Hua figured she'd already tricked Gu Yiming into coming out, so she might as well spend some time with him. She felt that the time she had with Gu Yiming was getting shorter and shorter, so she might as well make the most of it and show how good their relationship was.
"Hey, have you eaten yet?" Jiang Hua asked casually.
Jiang Hua's words were just a casual remark, but Gu Yiming took them to heart.
“I haven’t eaten yet. Come eat with me. You’ve already found me out, so you’d better come eat with me. You have no reason to refuse,” Gu Yiming said.
Gu Yiming still felt that he might have been forcing Jiang Hua, but he was in a good mood, so Jiang Hua certainly wouldn't spoil the mood easily.
Jiang Hua figured that since Gu Yiming had offered to have dinner with her, she might as well agree. After all, she hadn't eaten much, and she needed to be extra careful during the banquet. So, Jiang Hua simply agreed.
After all, Jiang Hua had only eaten a little food, so she figured she should just have a proper meal with Gu Yiming. She felt she could only enjoy a meal properly with Gu Yiming. That's why she agreed so readily.
“Okay, what shall we eat?” Jiang Hua asked.
Gu Yiming would definitely let Jiang Hua choose what to eat, since Jiang Hua is a pregnant woman, so he would definitely respect her appetite.
"So, what do you want to eat?" Gu Yiming asked.
Gu Yiming, acting like a gentleman, inquired about Jiang Hua's thoughts. Jiang Hua, without much thought, seemed to blurt out her answer without knowing why.
"Let's go have a seafood feast!" Jiang Hua blurted out.
Jiang Hua didn't think twice before blurting out those words, but Gu Yiming was stunned for a moment upon hearing them, and then felt quite embarrassed. Jiang Hua didn't seem to care at all.
"No! We can't have a seafood feast," Gu Yiming said decisively.
Gu Yiming was somewhat surprised at this point, but he didn't say anything more. He thought that if he reminded Jiang Hua like this, she would remember, but Jiang Hua seemed to know nothing at all.
"Oh, I really want to eat this! Please take me, just this once, okay?" Jiang Hua said coquettishly.
Jiang Hua didn't realize anything was wrong at this point, which made Gu Yiming even more surprised.
Gu Yiming hadn't expected that he had already reminded Jiang Hua, but Jiang Hua seemed to have no idea what it meant.
“No! Eating seafood can easily cause miscarriage! Especially crabs,” Gu Yiming said.
Jiang Hua felt extremely embarrassed upon hearing this. After all, this was something she should have paid attention to, but she hadn't noticed it at all and needed a grown man to remind her. So, Jiang Hua felt very awkward.
"Oh dear, look at my memory! I'm pregnant and I forgot to look up these things. Seriously, what a stupid brain!" Jiang Hua said, feeling quite embarrassed.
Jiang Hua was worried that this small matter might arouse suspicion, which would be a waste. So Jiang Hua felt a little uneasy. After all, it was natural to feel guilty in this situation. However, Jiang Hua was good at pretending and did not show anything wrong.
Jiang Hua was thinking that she must brush up on her knowledge about these things when she got back to avoid another embarrassing situation. Jiang Hua's face turned red; she felt so awkward, and she wasn't sure if Gu Yiming even cared. That was the only explanation she could offer.
After hearing Jiang Hua's brief explanation, Gu Yiming began to have some doubts. After all, it's unlikely that an expectant mother wouldn't notice something like this. However, Gu Yiming didn't say anything more. He was only suspicious at the moment. What if Jiang Hua was genuinely oblivious and didn't pay attention to these things? So Gu Yiming remained silent.
"Alright, remember to be careful next time. I'll take you to eat some home-style food. There's a place there that serves really good home-style dishes!" Gu Yiming said.
Jiang Hua nodded and remained silent, waiting for Gu Yiming to take her to the restaurant.
Jiang Hua felt that she might have given herself away, which was why she had remained silent and dared not say anything easily, for fear of accidentally letting something slip. So she felt that it was better to stay silent.
Gu Yiming didn't pay much attention to it. The two of them barely spoke the rest of the way, probably because they were both tired and needed some quiet. So, sometimes they would just look at each other without saying a word.
Jiang Hua figured the matter would be forgotten after the meal, so she didn't think much of it. Gu Yiming then took Jiang Hua to a casual home-style restaurant. Jiang Hua seemed very happy and well-behaved.
Jiang Hua went to dinner with Gu Yiming and felt very happy, instantly forgetting all about the treacherous banquet. She realized that being with Gu Yiming was truly the happiest time for her. Jiang Hua probably also felt she had finally experienced the feeling of relying on someone. She now felt she needed Gu Yiming's help for everything, but she never asked anyone else for help. Therefore, Jiang Hua thought she should treat Gu Yiming better in the future, so that things could develop smoothly.
