Lin also gave a wry smile.
That smug tone is just asking for a beating!
Lin, who was never one to talk much, suddenly blurted out, "A full moon celebration can't be earlier than a wedding, can it? When are we going to hold a wedding for our Xi'er?"
The phrase "our Xi'er" greatly displeased Zhou Jingming, who retorted, "What do you mean 'our'? She's mine."
“My sister is naturally us,” Lin said without any politeness.
Zhou Jingming was possessive and couldn't stand these words. "Your surname is Lin, and my wife's surname is Su."
His attempt to distance himself from Su Xi and Lin Ye left Su Xi feeling helpless. "My family doesn't like me. Lin Ye has always protected me since I was little. He's like my brother."
Zhou Jingming retorted, "It was also me who protected you from behind."
Su Xi knew he was jealous, and said with amusement, "You protect me, I'll make you my husband, and Lin Ye will become my brother, is that right?"
Zhou Jingming was speechless for a moment.
Su Xi and Lin Ye's relationship has made him jealous since childhood.
Now that Su Xi is his wife, Lin is still haunting him.
Zhou Jingming was uncomfortable and hit the nail on the head, saying, "If you're too free, go find a woman instead of constantly bothering my wife."
"Have some time to argue with me, set a date, and get the wedding done," Lin Ye said expressionlessly.
Zhou Jingming sneered, "No need to confirm. I can marry her anytime she's willing to."
Su Xi had heard these words more than once.
In fact, Zhou Jingming had mentioned having a wedding, but she wasn't in the mood to think about it for the time being.
Now Lin is bringing this up again; she's pregnant again.
It's definitely time to put it on the agenda.
"Dr. Lin, the patient in bed sixteen suddenly started vomiting and having diarrhea after surgery." A nurse rushed over.
Lin Ye's expression changed slightly, and he said to Su Xi, "I'll go check on the situation. Take care and get some rest."
"Okay, go ahead." Su Xi had always known that Lin Ye was very responsible.
That's why he has devoted himself to his work all these years and has never thought about his own affairs.
Sometimes she thinks about it.
When will Lin meet the right woman?
Until Huang Yaxi appeared.
Su Xi knew.
This is the kind of partner Lin Ye should spend her life with.
Both are doctors and share common interests, making it easier for them to get along.
Before Lin Ye left, Zhou Jingming suddenly said, "Lin Ye, if you keep working this busy, you might as well prepare to be a bachelor for life."
Lin was also anxious about the patient's condition and didn't respond when she heard this.
Su Xi pinched Zhou Jingming helplessly, "Can't you just hope he's doing better? What kind of talk is that?"
"I just hope he's doing well, and I want to provoke him into getting married soon," Zhou Jingming argued illogically.
Su Xi shook her head.
Having been with Zhou Jingming for so long, how could she not understand what he was thinking?
So it turns out she's still harboring resentment because she and Lin have been together for so long.
No one knows who leaked the news that Su Xi was pregnant.
The next morning, Shen Xian, Zhou's father, and Zhou Jing, the whole family of three, arrived.
Su Xi was pregnant and drowsy, and didn't wake up until after nine o'clock.
As soon as she went downstairs, she saw a group of people sitting in the living room, which startled her.
"Mom and Dad, Xiaojing, why are you all here?"
"Sister-in-law, we heard you're pregnant. Your parents are eager to see their grandson." Zhou Jing was the first to come over and support her.
Su Xi felt that this was making a big fuss over nothing.
She is pregnant.
It's not that I can't walk.
Besides, the child is only two weeks old; how can you tell he's a grandson?
Shen Xian waved to her, "Xi'er, come sit here with Mom and let Mom take a look."
Su Xi approached with a smile.
As soon as she sat down, Shen Xian immediately reached out and touched her belly. "Why didn't you tell your family about such a big thing as being pregnant?"
"If your dad hadn't gone to the hospital to get his medication this morning and heard about it from a doctor friend, how long were you planning to keep this a secret?"
Su Xi thought Zhou Jingming had leaked it and was thinking of dealing with him later.
Surprisingly, it was someone from the hospital who leaked the information.
"It was only confirmed last night, there wasn't time to say anything." Su Xi glanced at the coffee table and saw all sorts of tonics on it, and her head started to ache.
Will we have to rely on these supplements to survive from now on?
“Our Zhou family has always had few descendants, and we have always hoped that you two could continue the Zhou family bloodline. Now that you are pregnant, there is hope for the future of the Zhou family.”
The happiest person was none other than Zhou's father.
Just then, Zhou Jingming came out of the kitchen, and Zhou's father said loudly, "I'm going to live a few more years, hoping that my grandson will grow up. I'll rely on him in the future, and I won't count on my son."
These words were deliberately said to Zhou Jingming.
Su Xi knew perfectly well that Zhou's father was still upset about Zhou Jingming not inheriting the company.
This father and son.
Well, how should I put it?
As for resemblance, Zhou Jingming didn't inherit any of his father's looks.
They're not exactly alike, but their temperaments are completely different.
Zhou Jingming brought over a bowl of porridge. Hearing his father's words, he said coldly, "You're in your fifties now, so you can certainly hold on for a while. It'll only be sixteen years from now."
With a loud bang, Zhou's father slammed his hand on the table and stood up. "You good-for-nothing! I raised you to achieve great things, not to be a chef!"
Shen Xian was startled and jumped to her feet.
She pinched Zhou's father and said, "If you scare my precious grandson, I'll never forgive you."
“Yes, Dad, my sister-in-law is pregnant. Your loud movements aren’t good for prenatal education,” Zhou Jing added.
Only then did Zhou's father realize he had been too agitated, and he quickly apologized to Su Xi, "Xi'er, I scared you, are you alright?"
What could possibly happen to Su Xi?
That little noise won't scare her.
I was getting anxious seeing the father and son about to start arguing again.
Zhou Jingming came over, took her hand, and said gently, "Let's go eat first."
Su Xi didn't eat last night.
I was planning to eat beef noodles, but on the drive back, I accidentally fell asleep again.
I slept until now, and my stomach is already growling with hunger.
"Dad, Mom, Xiaojing, why don't we eat together?" It's not good to eat alone, so Su Xi sincerely invited.
Zhou Jingming said, "I only made one serving. If Dad wants to eat it, he can make it himself."
After saying that, he laughed sarcastically, "I forgot, Dad's hands are for making money, not for being a chef."
These words made Zhou's father so angry that his face turned purple.
This wretched child...
They wouldn't stop until they drove him to his death.
Shen Xian sided with her son, "Ming'er is right. A man must be able to cook in the kitchen to be presentable in the living room. Look at you, you've lived most of your life and you've never cooked me a meal. You deserve to be angry with your son!"
Zhou's father: "..."
I can't live like this anymore.
His son angered him.
My daughter is a good-for-nothing.
Now even his wife dislikes him.
"It's just cooking, anyone can do that!" Zhou's father, who never admitted defeat, could not tolerate such an insult.
Shen Xian said, "I'm hungry too. Go cook me a bowl of noodles."
"Dad, I want one too!"
Zhou Jing joined in.
Zhou's father was just talking, but he never expected to dig a hole for himself.
For a moment, he was caught between a rock and a hard place.
Zhou Jingming deliberately provoked, "Don't make things difficult for Dad. He probably can't even hold a kitchen knife."
