While other students are busy with internships or studying for graduate school entrance exams, Lu Huan's senior year was filled with wedding preparations and career planning.
In recent years, as Lu Huan's reputation in the industry has grown, many people have sought to collaborate with her.
Before, jobs chose her; now, she chooses jobs.
The studio has grown larger and larger, from a dozen people crammed into a small office to dozens of people sitting in a large office now, and even the company address has been moved to a luxurious CBD area.
Of course, all of this is thanks to Lu Huan, since most of the CBD belongs to her husband's family.
Renting a house here would cost at least 100,000 yuan a month, which Gao Hui couldn't afford, so she had Lu Huan invest in the business and become the boss.
Lu Huan has been very busy these past few days, and she also has to go on a business trip. She had promised to go on vacation with Gu Zhendong over the weekend, but she can't go now.
Lu Huan felt very apologetic and hugged Gu Zhendong affectionately, saying, "I'm sorry, something really came up this time. Let's go together next weekend, okay?"
From their sophomore to senior year of college, they have been married for almost two years. Apart from a misunderstanding with Gu Zhendong, they have always been a loving couple that everyone envies.
Gu Zhendong's face was sullen, clearly displeased by her sudden business trip. However, glancing at his pitiful wife in his arms, he couldn't bear to get angry at her. He pinched her chubby cheeks hard with his fingers and said, "We're getting married soon, why are you still so busy?"
With less than a month until their wedding, Lu Huan was very busy after he had some free time. He left early and returned late every day, and was rarely seen.
Lu Huan knew she had been busy lately and had neglected Gu Zhendong. She exclaimed, "I'm sorry, the company is in a period of rapid growth, I can't just abandon everything, I'm practically a boss now!"
There are so many people receiving salaries below her. If she, as the boss, doesn't work harder, wouldn't everyone starve?
It would be better if her career wasn't mentioned, because Gu Zhendong's face darkened even more as soon as it was brought up. He regretted ever supporting her career in the first place.
Not only did he exhaust himself, but he, as her husband, also spent very little time with her each day.
Gu Zhendong is also a decision-maker in the company. His company is dozens of times larger than Lu Huan's studio, so he naturally knows how busy it is. He just feels sorry for his wife.
Lu Huan has been incredibly busy for the past month, and she has visibly lost a lot of weight.
Lu Huan apologized to Gu Zhendong repeatedly, and only after the man finally stopped being angry did she breathe a sigh of relief.
After taking a shower, I busied myself packing my luggage, preparing for my business trip the next day.
After Gu Zhendong finished showering, he saw her sitting cross-legged on the ground, wearing only a silk slip dress. The bright light shone on her body, making the skin on her neck appear snow-white, while there were still a few marks left on her back from the previous nights.
The stark contrast of red and white made men's hearts flutter, and their throats feel dry and itchy.
Lu Huan was busy packing her luggage with her head down, completely unaware that Gu Zhendong had come out of the bathroom and was standing right behind her.
So much so that she was startled when Gu Zhendong picked her up from the ground.
Suddenly lifted into the air, Lu Huan was terrified and frantically clung to Gu Zhendong's neck, shouting, "What are you doing?!"
Gu Zhendong held her as they sat on the sofa, pinched her chin, and kissed her without saying a word.
The two have been married for so long and are extremely in sync on this matter.
Lu Huan was breathless from the kiss, her fair cheeks gradually turning red. She reached out her delicate white hand to cover his lips, "I haven't finished packing my luggage yet!"
"Finish it first, then clean up!"
Lu Huan: ...You big dummy!
She was always exhausted after each session, so she had no energy left to pack her luggage.
She only regretted that she was so weak-willed, and that Gu Zhendong had easily aroused her.
After several nights without food, Gu Zhendong, like a wolf that had been starving for a long time, devoured Lu Huan completely.
Afterwards, she had no energy left to pack her luggage.
I stayed up late last night, so I had to go out early this morning.
Lu Huan was woken up by the alarm clock. She quickly washed her face, changed her clothes, and hurriedly tried to pack her luggage, only to find that her suitcase had already been packed.
She turned to look at Gu Zhendong, gave him a bright smile, and gave him a warm hug.
"Honey, you're so good to me!"
Gu Zhendong put one hand on her waist and said, "If I'm not good to you, who will be?"
Gu Zhendong took her to the airport early in the morning. Lu Huan's business trip wouldn't be long; if things went smoothly, she would be back in two or three days.
Gao Hui and her assistants couldn't stand seeing the couple showing affection and showering him with a huge amount of "dog food" (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection), so they waited for him inside.
The airport is bustling with people, and there is no shortage of couples like them who are reluctant to part.
Lu Huan gave the man a quick kiss on the cheek. "It's stamped. Wait for me to come back!"
Gu Zhendong chuckled and patted her head. "Call me when you're settled."
Lu Huan didn't sleep well last night and tried to catch up on sleep on the plane. The plane was too noisy, and she didn't sleep well. After getting off the plane, her eyes were still puffy. Lu Huan pushed her luggage and yawned. It's all Gu Zhendong's fault.
Gao Hui stared at Lu Huan's face with great interest and teased, "Oh, look at those dark circles under your eyes, did you go out to steal last night?"
Lu Huan was too embarrassed to say anything, so she just rolled her eyes and changed the subject: "Hasn't the car arrived yet?"
Gao Hui laughed heartily, secretly envying Lu Huan.
People say that marriage is the grave of love, and that there is no passion left after marriage. She thinks that's not true. If the person who said that saw Gu Zhendong and Lu Huan, they would probably envy Lu Huan just like she does.
After getting into the car, Lu Huan sent a message to Gu Zhendong to let him know she was safe. She didn't call her husband until they arrived at the hotel.
She was given a double room to stay in alone, so she felt comfortable saying sweet nothings like "I miss you" to Gu Zhendong. Little did she know that the man on the other end was having a meeting with a group of people.
Gu Zhendong glanced at everyone without changing his expression, then walked out. After he left, everyone huddled together and whispered among themselves.
Lu Huan was very sleepy and went to sleep after finishing the phone call. She slept until the afternoon when Gao Hui came to knock on the door, bringing some food. After getting ready, she prepared to go out.
These past few days, Lu Huan has been incredibly busy. She's either in meetings discussing work with clients or recording in the recording studio, returning to the hotel very late every day. Her phone calls with Gu Zhendong are almost always after midnight.
Gu Zhendong felt sorry for him and said, "If you're sleepy, go to sleep!"
We agreed that I would be back in two or three days, but things suddenly piled up and I can't go back for a while. I also promised to go on vacation with him this weekend to relax!
Lu Huan squinted and yawned, her eyes watering with sleepiness, but she stubbornly insisted, "I'm not sleepy, I'll talk to you a little longer!"
The two chatted casually for a while, and Gu Zhendong noticed that her eyes were almost closed. "I have a meeting early tomorrow morning, go to sleep!"
Lu Huan was so sleepy that she couldn't hear what Gu Zhendong was saying anymore. She just hummed in response, slammed her face on the pillow, closed her eyes, and quickly fell asleep.
I forgot to turn off the video; you could still see half of her profile through the screen.
Gu Zhendong chuckled; she must be incredibly sleepy.
He wanted to turn off the video call, but he also wanted to see her more, so he simply kept the video call on until Lu Huan's phone ran out of battery.
Lu Huan's phone died and shut down automatically, so she missed her alarm. Luckily, Gao Hui knocked on the door right on time and found her still asleep. "My goodness, what time is it? Why are you still sleeping?!"
"How could that be? I set an alarm!"
I was worried she might miss the alarm, so I set several.
Lu Huan was still half asleep and couldn't get any response from her phone no matter how she pressed the buttons. It wasn't until she plugged it in that she realized what had happened and explained, "I was video chatting with Gu Zhendong last night and probably forgot to turn it off, so it ran out of battery and shut down!"
"..."
Ugh! I've been bombarded with dog food this morning, I don't even need to eat breakfast!
I had a meeting in the morning, recorded audio in the afternoon, grabbed some quick bites for lunch and dinner to appease my hunger, and didn't get home until midnight.
At night, Lu Huan was so tired that she didn't even have the energy to talk to Gu Zhendong. After sending the message, she went straight to sleep.
Gu Zhendong saw Lu Huan's message, replied, and waited for a long time without receiving any response from Lu Huan. He didn't call her either, guessing that Lu Huan was too tired and had fallen asleep.
Lu Huan went to bed early last night, but she still felt listless and had no appetite when she woke up this morning.
Gao Hui noticed that her complexion wasn't quite right. "Are you alright? Should we go to the hospital to get checked out?"
Lu Huan rubbed his temples and shook his head, saying, "It's probably because I haven't been sleeping enough these past few days!"
"Then you should go back and get some sleep. I can handle what happened this morning anyway!"
"No need!" Lu Huan insisted on going with Gao Hui, so they set off together!
Lu Huan felt that something was wrong with her body today. She felt weak all over, her chest felt tight, and she felt nauseous.
Gao Hui dared not neglect Lu Huan, so she stopped the car halfway and personally got out to buy her bread and milk, saying, "The meeting might last a long time, so you should at least eat something!"
Lu Huan thanked him and took the things.
The milk was still warm, and after Lu Huan ate something, her complexion finally looked a little better.
Just like the previous two days, there was a meeting in the morning and recording in the afternoon. During the lunch break, Lu Huan had just gotten up to pour herself a glass of water when a wave of dizziness suddenly washed over her. She instinctively braced herself against the wall, and the glass fell to the ground with a thud.
The assistant who came in upon hearing the noise saw that Lu Huan's face was pale and hurriedly stepped forward to support her, "Sister Lu, are you alright?"
Lu Huan wanted to say she was fine, but everyone was double-looking. "Help me sit down first!"
Without saying a word, the assistant helped Lu Huan sit down and informed Gao Hui about the matter.
Gao Hui noticed early on that Lu Huan's complexion was off and urged her to go to the hospital, "You should go to the hospital to get checked out. Your face is too pale. If your husband finds out, he'll tear me apart!"
During the two years of cooperation, Gao Hui had a lot of contact with Gu Zhendong and had come to know his personality to some extent. He seemed cold on the surface, but he wasn't actually that ruthless. However, he had his own bottom line in dealing with people and things, and once you crossed that line, things were hard to say.
Lu Huan should be his bottom line!
Gao Hui deliberately exaggerated, trying to scare Lu Huan, but Lu Huan shook her head, "I still have a recording session this afternoon, I'll go to the hospital after it's over!"
"But……"
"It's okay, I can handle this!"
Lu Huan may seem easy to talk to, but she is actually quite stubborn. Once she has made up her mind about something, no matter what others say, she will not change her mind.
Gao Hui's persuasion failed, and she sighed helplessly, "Then you should rest for a while!"
If something really happens to her right under his nose, Gu Zhendong will definitely not let him off the hook!
Gao Hui was genuinely worried, so she instructed her assistant to keep a close eye on Lu Huan and to inform her immediately if he felt unwell.
The assistant nodded repeatedly, valuing Lu Huan more than his own life and fortune.
After resting for half an hour, Lu Huan felt that she was almost fully recovered, so she went to the recording studio to record. However, halfway through the recording, Lu Huan felt dizzy and her body uncontrollably collapsed.
This startled everyone; how could someone who was perfectly fine suddenly faint?
The assistant, in particular, looked even paler than the unconscious Lu Huan.
Gao Hui also specifically instructed her that if she found Lu Huan's condition was not right, she should immediately let her rest.
The assistant was the first to rush forward, pick up Lu Huan, and frantically called out several times, but Lu Huan did not respond. They hurriedly called an ambulance and, together with everyone else, took Lu Huan to the hospital.
Gao Hui also went to the hospital with them and called Gu Zhendong at the same time.
When Gu Zhendong heard that Lu Huan had suddenly fainted at work, his expression turned serious. He immediately asked Kong Xun to book the fastest flight, abandoned all his work, and rushed over.
The journey took two hours, and after getting off the plane, I rushed to the hospital without stopping.
Lu Huan was still unconscious. Gu Zhendong walked very fast, his breathing rapid, and asked Gao Hui anxiously, "How is she?"
Gao Hui explained Lu Huan's condition, which was actually not a serious problem; the fainting was caused by anemia.
Perhaps because she's been working too much these past few days, Lu Huan hasn't had time to rest properly.
"She's still sleeping, be quiet!" Gao Hui whispered to him.
Unbeknownst to her, Gu Zhendong was completely flustered and disoriented when he heard that Lu Huan had suddenly fainted.
I hurried to the bedside, but I had to walk quietly for fear of waking the sleeping person.
After being taken to the hospital, Lu Huan had been unconscious for a while. Her face was still very pale, and she looked much thinner than before she left home a few days ago. Gu Zhendong tenderly stroked Lu Huan's cheek, his movements as gentle as could be.
Even though the doctor said Lu Huan was fine, Gu Zhendong was still worried and stayed by her bedside.
Lu Huan finally woke up when it got dark.
She hadn't eaten much all day, and although she had slept all afternoon, she was still feeling dizzy. Especially when she saw Gu Zhendong right in front of her, she was stunned. Looking at Gu Zhendong, she thought she was dreaming and subconsciously wanted to act coquettishly towards the man.
"Honey, I feel dizzy!"
Gu Zhendong was really dizzy, and even seeing people was a bit double. Hearing this, he panicked even more. "I'll go get the doctor!"
Lu Huan hadn't seen Gu Zhendong for a long time, and even in her dreams, she couldn't bear to be separated from him.
Once she gets back, she'll definitely take a break and stick by Gu Zhendong's side every day.
Lu Huan was weak and clung to Gu Zhendong's hand, refusing to let go. Gu Zhendong sighed and gently coaxed her, as if he were soothing a child, "Be good, I'll go call the doctor, I'll be back soon!"
Lu Huan shook her head, her eyes gradually welling up with tears. "No!"
Even in her dreams, she didn't want to be separated from Gu Zhendong.
Gu Zhendong had no choice but to hold her tightly, gently soothing her, "Okay, I won't leave!"
Are you thirsty? Would you like some water?
Lu Huan nodded, and the man released her hand, but Lu Huan refused to let go. Gu Zhendong's doting gaze fell on her face, "If you don't let go, how am I supposed to pour you water?"
There were only the two of them in the ward. She couldn't move, so it was just him left.
Lu Huan realized this too, blushed, and reluctantly let go of him.
There was hot water in the room. Gu Zhendong poured water while sending a message to Gao Hui, asking her to call the doctor over.
Lu Huan lay on the bed, her gaze fixed on Gu Zhendong's back, secretly thinking that her husband was not only good-looking, but also very tall.
Gu Zhendong poured water and saw Lu Huan staring at him with a fascinated look. "What are you looking at?"
Is there something on his face?
Upon hearing that she had fallen into a coma, he rushed over without paying attention to his appearance. Does he look a little scary now?
Lu Huan took the water glass and blurted out without thinking, "Of course I'm looking at my handsome husband!"
Gu Zhendong was amused by her words. He knew Lu Huan's infatuation with men quite well; she valued her appearance the most.
I was also glad that I had a face that could attract her attention.
Lu Huan stared at Gu Zhendong's face, feeling extremely thirsty. She picked up her water glass and took a sip, but unexpectedly, while the glass felt just right, the water was still scalding hot. She accidentally burned her tongue, her face contorting in pain. "Ouch!"
This distressed Gu Zhendong greatly, and he quickly took the water glass and placed it aside, asking, "Did you burn yourself?"
With tears in her eyes, Lu Huan couldn't speak. Under the man's concern, she nodded. Gu Zhendong said, "Open your mouth so I can see!"
Lu Huan obediently stuck out her tongue, which was pink and soft, and nothing else could be seen. If blisters had formed, they wouldn't have appeared so quickly.
Wait, something's not right!
Why would she feel pain if she burned her tongue in her dream?
You don't feel anything when you're dreaming, do you?
Lu Huan's eyes widened suddenly as she looked at Gu Zhendong, who was so close to her. She instinctively reached out and pinched him, feeling the unmistakable sensation. "Husband, are you really me?"
A hint of doubt flashed in Gu Zhendong's eyes. "Hmm?"
What do you mean he's real? Does she doubt that she, a living, breathing person, is a fake?
Ignoring Gu Zhendong's confused look, Lu Huan excitedly hugged the man, "Husband, it really is you! I thought I was dreaming!"
She felt a little dizzy from the excitement, so Gu Zhendong quickly pressed her down and told her to lie still and not move.
Having not seen him for several days, Lu Huan just wanted to cling to him. She sniffed and said, "Husband!"
Gu Zhendong sighed helplessly, poked her head, but didn't dare to poke too hard, "So you've always thought I was fake?"
Lu Huan stuck out her tongue sheepishly, grinned, and belatedly asked, "By the way, how did I end up at the hospital?"
"You have the nerve to ask!" Gu Zhendong's face hardened at the mention of this, looking quite fierce. "I told you to take care of yourself while you were on a business trip, and you ended up in the hospital?"
I don't even remember how I fainted!
Gu Zhendong grew angrier the more he thought about it, but luckily they weren't far apart.
Gu Zhendong told her about fainting, and Lu Huan then remembered that Gu Zhendong was worried about her health. She said guiltily, "I won't do it again next time!"
I've been in similar busy states before, but this time, for some reason, I can't eat or sleep well, and I get dizzy and lightheaded after exerting even a little effort.
Lu Huan fell into self-doubt. Could it be that there was really something wrong with her body?
Not long after, Gao Hui brought a doctor to examine Lu Huan's physical condition. Gu Zhendong was worried, so he had Lu Huan undergo a full-body examination.
Lu Huan was also worried that there might be something wrong with her health, so she didn't refuse and went straight for a full-body checkup.
After spending one night in the hospital, Gu Zhendong had to squeeze onto the sofa in the ward, where there was only one bed. His tall stature seemed out of place on the small sofa.
A small lamp was turned on by the bedside so that Lu Huan could see it if she got up in the middle of the night.
Having slept all afternoon, Lu Huan was quite energetic and couldn't fall asleep. Her thoughts turned to Gu Zhendong. She peeked out from under the covers and glanced at the man on the sofa. "Why don't you sleep in the bed?"
Gu Zhendong has probably never slept on a sofa in his entire life.
Actually, she wanted to say that she didn't have much of a problem and that she wanted Gu Zhendong to go back to the hotel, but knowing his temper, she didn't say it.
"No need," Gu Zhendong refused. "Go to sleep early, don't stick your feet out, or you'll catch a cold!"
Lu Huan had stuck her feet out of the covers because she felt hot, but Gu Zhendong caught her red-handed. As she pulled her feet back in, she muttered, "It's not as exaggerated as you say, it's very hot right now!"
Having finally met, Lu Huan naturally wanted to talk to Gu Zhendong as much as possible. Through the warm yellow light, Lu Huan caught a glimpse of Gu Zhendong's red eyes and thought that he probably hadn't had a good rest on his way here. She felt sorry for him and said, "I'm sleepy, I'm going to sleep!"
Gu Zhendong hummed in agreement and closed his eyes again.
Lu Huan thought she wouldn't be able to sleep, but after closing her eyes, she fell asleep in no time.
It was completely quiet.
In the middle of the night, Gu Zhendong opened his eyes to check on her several times. Seeing that she was sleeping peacefully, he felt relieved.
The next morning, before Lu Huan woke up, Gu Zhendong went to the vicinity of the hospital and bought Lu Huan's favorite soup dumplings.
When Lu Huan woke up early and didn't see anyone, she became suspicious and wondered if everything she had done yesterday was a dream.
But Gu Zhendong's coat is still on the sofa, so it must all be real!
Lu Huan rubbed her face. "What are you thinking about?"
Gao Hui has things to do this morning and can only come over after she finishes them.
Lu Huan sat on the bed in a daze for a while, then waited for Gu Zhendong to return.
He was carrying breakfast in his hand. "Awake?"
Lu Huan hummed in agreement, then looked curiously into his hand. "What did you buy?"
"Soup dumplings!" Gu Zhendong opened the box. "I couldn't find the soup dumplings you liked, so I bought some from a famous one nearby!"
After getting married, Gu Zhendong spoiled her so much that she became increasingly picky about food. If she encountered something that didn't taste good, she wouldn't want to eat even a bite, and besides, Gu Zhendong couldn't bear to force her.
Hearing about soup dumplings, she immediately perked up and sat down on the edge of the bed. Gu Zhendong glanced at her and said, "Go brush your teeth!"
"oh!"
Lu Huan obediently went and quickly finished washing up before running out. Gu Zhendong had just placed the soup dumplings on the table; they were still warm and steaming.
"You have no idea how badly I can eat the hotel breakfast!"
"So that's why you fainted?"
Gu Zhendong questioned her in a cold voice. Lu Huan felt extremely guilty and quickly lowered her head to take a bite of the soup dumpling.
Lu Huan used to love soup dumplings. They were delicious, and every bite was full of soup. However, the soup dumplings at this store were not the same as the ones she used to eat. They tasted different and had a strange flavor. A feeling of nausea rose from her stomach, and Lu Huan couldn't hold it in. She frowned and felt like she was going to vomit.
She covered her mouth and hurriedly ran to the bathroom, followed by the sound of vomiting.
Gu Zhendong hurriedly followed, and seeing Lu Huan's red eyes after vomiting, he helped her up with heartache, asking, "What happened?"
Lu Huan rinsed her mouth with water. "The soup dumplings seem to have gone bad!"
broken?
Knowing she loved it, he didn't touch the soup dumplings he bought. After helping Lu Huan sit down, he took a bite of the soup dumpling and found nothing unusual about it.
Lu Huan asked, "Is it spoiled? Didn't you feel nauseous and want to vomit after you tasted it?"
Gu Zhendong shook his head, "No!"
He's not picky about food, but he can still tell the difference between good and bad!
Upon hearing this, Lu Huan exclaimed in surprise, "Are you sure it's not broken?"
As she spoke, she leaned closer to Gu Zhendong, wanting to see if the soup dumplings were spoiled, but as soon as she smelled them, a feeling of nausea suddenly surged up in her heart again.
Her expression changed, and Gu Zhendong became worried. "What happened? I'll go get the doctor!"
"No, I just feel nauseous!" Lu Huan said with a pained expression, as if she had just drunk some Chinese medicine.
Gu Zhendong felt increasingly strange. He covered the soup dumpling and put it aside, helped Lu Huan to bed, and then went to call the doctor.
The doctor asked Lu Huan several questions, which Lu Huan answered one by one.
"Have you been feeling nauseous and wanting to vomit lately?"
"Yes!" Lu Huan nodded obediently.
The doctor glanced at Lu Huan's pale face, then at Gu Zhendong, as if he knew something, and then asked, "Besides feeling nauseous and wanting to vomit, are you also constantly sleepy? Have you lost your appetite lately, and are you craving sour things...?"
Lu Huan's eyes widened in surprise, thinking to herself that this doctor was truly amazing, knowing even these things.
Lu Huan nodded hurriedly, and was about to ask the doctor what illness she had when she heard the doctor immediately ask, "How many months has it been since your period came?"
After speaking, the doctor glanced at Lu Huan's lower abdomen, which was still very flat and showed no abnormalities.
Young people these days are all the same; they're confused about their own lives, not even knowing if they're pregnant or not.
Lu Huan didn't even think about pregnancy; instead, she seriously considered what the doctor had said.
She's been very busy lately, and her period seems to have started last month, but then again, maybe not... she can't even remember.
Gu Zhendong, who was standing to the side, frowned after hearing the doctor's question, then realized something and asked, "Is my wife pregnant?"
If he remembered correctly, Lu Huan's last period was two months ago, which is more than two months ago. All her current symptoms indicate that she is pregnant.
The doctor glanced at Gu Zhendong and said, "We'll have to wait for the results to confirm!"
But what Gu Zhendong saw in the doctor's eyes was almost certainly true.
Pregnant?
These two words struck Lu Huan like lightning. She stared blankly at Gu Zhendong, her mind completely blank.
Gu Zhendong was also surprised, but even more so, delighted.
They had their own child.
But his expression was always indifferent, so I couldn't discern any particular emotion from him.
The doctor said they need to wait for the results to confirm, so it's also possible that she's not pregnant!
The doctor gave Lu Huan a few words of advice, telling her to rest in bed. "I'll let you know when the results are in!"
Gu Zhendong thanked the doctor and saw him out. Turning back, he saw Lu Huan about to get out of bed. Panicked, he quickly went over and pressed Lu Huan's shoulder, saying, "What do you need? I'll do it!"
Lu Huan was still a little dazed and hadn't quite processed what the doctor had said. She looked up at Gu Zhendong with a blank stare and said, "I just need to go to the bathroom!"
Gu Zhendong frowned and reached out to support her, "I'll go with you!"
Seeing Gu Zhendong's nervous look, Lu Huan assumed he felt like throwing up and whispered, "I don't feel like throwing up!"
Gu Zhendong was concerned about more than just that; he was even more concerned about her physical condition.
When they reached the restroom door, Lu Huan blushed and whispered, "I can manage by myself, don't come in!"
Gu Zhendong seemed worried, looking directly at him with concern: "You really don't need me to go in!"
Lu Huan said, embarrassed and annoyed, "I was just going to the toilet, I wasn't doing anything!"
His gaze was unbearable, as if she were a fragile piece of glass.
Gu Zhendong hummed in agreement. "I'll wait for you at the door! Call me if you need anything!"
It's just going to the bathroom, what could possibly happen to her!
Lu Huan muttered to herself, but on the surface she obediently said "oh," let go of his hand, and hurriedly went into the bathroom. She looked at her face in the mirror, and then her gaze gradually moved down to her stomach.
The conversation between Gu Zhendong and the doctor echoed in her ears, and she subconsciously reached out and touched her lower abdomen.
This area is clearly flat, how could I possibly be pregnant!
Lu Huan stared intently, not coming out for a long time. Gu Zhendong, who was waiting outside, became a little anxious, reached out and knocked on the door, calling her name.
He called her name several times, but Lu Huan didn't respond. He became visibly anxious and was about to push the door open when he heard her voice, "I'll be done soon!"
When Lu Huan came out, she was met with Gu Zhendong's anxious gaze. He helped her sit down and asked, "Is there anything else that's bothering you?"
"I'm fine, I was just thinking about something!" Lu Huan looked at him. "The doctor must have made a mistake. How could I be pregnant? We always use protection!"
"The night I came back from my business trip two months ago, we did it three times, but we didn't use protection the last time!"
"..."
"Judging by the timeline, she must have conceived that night!"
When Gu Zhendong said that, Lu Huan remembered what had happened that night.
He had been away on business for too long, and she was very busy. It was not easy for the two of them to get together, so the sparks flew. That night, she was fooling around with Gu Zhendong and never expected that she would get pregnant so easily!
They had agreed not to have children before she graduated, and there's still a year until then.
That's one reason. The other is that she feels like she's still a child and isn't ready to be a mother and take care of a baby.
Lu Huan was clearly flustered and at a loss, instinctively gripping Gu Zhendong's hand tightly, "But..."
Gu Zhendong noticed her hesitation. "You don't want this child?" He stared at Lu Huan and said slowly, "If you don't want it, you can have an abortion. I respect your decision!"
She wasn't ready to be a mother yet, but when the topic of aborting the child came up, Lu Huan felt a pang of pain in her heart and instinctively said, "Of course I want the child!"
Gu Zhendong visibly relaxed, his expression softening. Before he could comfort Lu Huan, he heard her say anxiously, "I just feel it's all so unreal. How could I suddenly be pregnant? Didn't we agree that we'd have children after I graduated?"
Lu Huan was very flustered. Gu Zhendong held her in his arms and gently patted her back. "Didn't the doctor say that the results are not yet confirmed? What if you're not pregnant?"
"But I haven't had my period for two months, I must be pregnant!" Lu Huan said, on the verge of tears, her eyes already brimming with glistening tears, looking pitiful and touching.
What else can you do but coax your own wife?
"I'm here with you!"
"I'm still very scared. I've heard that childbirth is extremely painful. You're with me, but you can't help me give birth!"
Lu Huan cried even louder!
Gu Zhendong: ...
In the years since their marriage, Lu Huan has become increasingly spoiled, to the point that even her mother, Shen Hui, can't stand it anymore, thinking that Gu Zhendong sometimes really spoils Lu Huan rotten.
Gu Zhendong couldn't finish the soup dumplings, so he asked Gao Hui to buy him a bowl of white rice porridge on the way.
The test results came back quickly, and as previously mentioned, Lu Huan was officially announced to be pregnant!
Holding the report, Lu Huan felt her brain wasn't working properly. She recognized every single word, but when put together, she couldn't understand what it meant. She stared blankly at Gu Zhendong.
Gu Zhendong's face was usually expressionless, but when he learned that he was going to be a father, a hint of joy appeared on his calm face.
The couple both felt it was still unreal, but Gao Hui cheered excitedly, hugging Lu Huan and shouting, "You're going to be a mother! Congratulations!"
Gao Hui's words, "You're going to be a mother," brought Lu Huan back to her senses, causing her to instinctively touch her perfectly flat stomach.
Gu Zhendong quickly informed everyone of the news, which made Yan Rong extremely happy. After so many years of hard work, she was finally going to be a grandmother. She happily called Lu Huan, reminding her of things to pay attention to during her pregnancy. She was still talking excitedly on the phone when Shen Hui, upon learning of Lu Huan's pregnancy, also hurriedly called to inquire about her precious daughter. Yan Rong had no choice but to reluctantly say goodbye to her daughter-in-law, and then instructed Gu Zhendong to take good care of Lu Huan.
As Lu Huan dozed off at night, she leaned against Gu Zhendong's shoulder and said, "I'm not ready yet!"
Only now has she finally accepted the truth about her pregnancy. She has touched her belly countless times, saying, "It feels just like usual. How did I get a baby?"
The man's broad, warm hand covered her lower abdomen, where their child was growing. In a while, it would slowly grow bigger.
Gu Zhendong kissed her forehead. "Sweetie, go to sleep early!"
For the next two days, Gu Zhendong, under the guise of taking care of Lu Huan, went wherever Lu Huan went.
Lu Huan finally breathed a sigh of relief when the business trip ended.
It was just a normal business trip, but after everyone learned that Lu Huan was pregnant, they all came to the airport to pick her up and take her home.
When Lu Huan saw so many people, he was completely stunned. What was going on?
She turned to look at Gu Zhendong, who said, "Mom and Dad said they want to come and pick you up!"
Shen Hui and Yan Rong were the first to greet her. They pulled Lu Huanzai aside and looked her over carefully, saying with great concern, "How come you've lost so much weight in just a few days on this business trip? There's hardly any flesh on your face!"
Yan Rong chimed in, "Yes, you've lost a lot of weight. Has Zhen Dong not been taking good care of you...?"
The two sang in perfect harmony, making it seem to an outsider that they had rehearsed their lines beforehand!
Lu Huan chuckled awkwardly and touched his face: "It's alright!"
Ever since she found out she was pregnant, her morning sickness has become increasingly severe. She even suspects that the baby in her belly is deliberately making things difficult for her, the mother!
The whole family is extremely concerned about Lu Huan. They not only canceled this vacation, but also halved her workload. If it weren't for Lu Huan's insistence on working, given Gu Zhendong's temperament, he would have preferred to let Lu Huan stay at home and focus on her pregnancy.
Under pressure from Gu Zhendong, Gao Hui didn't dare to give Lu Huan too much work, allowing her to live a comfortable life every day.
With her workload suddenly reduced, Lu Huan had nothing to do. She spent her days either resting or busy preparing for the wedding. In fact, all she needed to do was quietly wait for the wedding to arrive and be a beautiful bride.
Lu Huan, in the early stages of her pregnancy, experienced severe morning sickness, vomiting everything she ate.
