Once Lele's true parentage was revealed, Su Xi contacted Dean Chen in advance to have Su Rou claim the child.
The day Su Rou came to the orphanage, Director Chen chatted with her for an entire afternoon.
Su Rou thanked Dean Chen for her past actions, saying, "Thanks to you for taking care of Lele all these years and raising her so well. Rather than saying I am the child's biological mother, it would be more accurate to say that you gave her life."
Without you, I would never have found my daughter, let alone had the chance to be reunited with her.
Dean Chen smiled with satisfaction, "Su Rou, you have really grown a lot. I am at ease entrusting Lele to me."
"It's all because of Xi'er. If she hadn't given me a hand, I wouldn't be where I am today. I might still be arrogant and self-centered in the entertainment industry."
Su Xi spoke of the past with a face full of shame, "I hurt too many people. I not only let down Xi'er, but also the orphanage that raised me for so many years. Director Chen, thank you for not holding a grudge and for giving me a chance to start over."
The reunion with Lele went so smoothly.
The credit goes to Director Chen for agreeing to let her come and help at the orphanage.
She was given time to spend with Lele.
Gradually change Lele's negative impression of her.
"No, if you don't save yourself, no one can save you." Dean Chen was once disappointed in Su Rou.
She was adopted by an orphanage.
Educate her.
Train her.
However, when the orphanage was in its most difficult time, Su Rou chose to turn a blind eye.
Dean Chen was deeply hurt.
Fortunately, it wasn't too late for Su Rou to turn back.
I rediscovered my kindness and my conscience.
After a long conversation, Su Rou signed the adoption papers and officially left the orphanage with Lele.
Before leaving, Dean Chen instructed, "Su Rou, you must treat Lele well. This child has already been hurt once, so don't disappoint her again."
"Don't worry, I will definitely protect her," Su Rou assured her.
Dean Chen nodded.
Su Rou quickly got Lele into the car.
The driver was arranged by Su Xi.
She had something to do today and couldn't come in person, so she sent her bodyguard with Su Rou.
To avoid any accidents on the way.
"Madam instructed me to take you to the villa." The bodyguard looked at the two people behind him, one big and one small, through the rearview mirror.
Su Rou hugged Lele tightly and nodded, "Okay."
Because there were children present, the bodyguard drove very smoothly.
Lele got tired of playing and fell asleep on Su Rou.
Its small body is soft and cuddly.
Breathing evenly.
Every now and then, she would move her little mouth and mutter in her sleep, "Lele has a mother now."
"Child, I'm sorry."
Su Rou stroked Lele's soft hair, her eyes reddening. "It's Mom's fault. Mom isn't a good mom. I've made you suffer all these years. But I promise Lele that I will love you, protect you, and make you happy from now on. I will never abandon you again."
Lele was immersed in her dream.
I don't know what I was dreaming about.
After Su Rou finished speaking, she giggled, "A child with a mother is like a treasure."
These words instantly broke Su Rou's composure.
She covered her face and wept bitterly.
...
When Su Xiyi became pregnant, Zhou Jingming was extremely careful.
She felt a little uncomfortable in her stomach in the morning, and Zhou Jingming immediately became nervous and took Su Xi to the hospital for a check-up as soon as possible.
The result was just discomfort caused by indigestion.
The doctor only prescribed some probiotics.
"I told you I was fine, but you wouldn't believe me. Now look what happened, you've made me sick by giving me all sorts of supplements every day." Su Xi sighed helplessly.
Zhou Jingming hasn't been going to work lately either.
I stay home with her every day.
That's fine.
I also bought a lot of books on pregnancy care and carefully read through them page by page.
I cook delicious meals for her every day according to the recipes.
Su Xi felt that in just a few days, she had gained a lot of weight.
“Not everything in the books is accurate,” Zhou Jingming said. “I’ll throw all those lousy books away later.”
Su Xi smiled and said, "It's not that there's a problem with the book, it's that everyone's constitution is different. Those recipes are nutritious, but they may not be suitable for every pregnant woman."
Zhou Jingming held Su Xi's hand and walked carefully down the hospital corridor, conceding, "From now on, I'll make whatever you want to eat."
"Finally, I've got it."
Su Xi breathed a sigh of relief.
I've been drinking too much soup and liquid lately.
There are no problems with my digestive system.
Her taste buds are practically ruined.
It tasted worse and worse the more I drank it, I almost threw up.
"Go home and cook for me now. Su Rou and Lele will be here soon, and we can have dinner together," Su Xi glanced at the time; it was already late.
Zhou Jingming's expression changed at the mention of Su Rou. "I can make it for you and Lele, but not for Su Rou."
"My cooking is only for the woman I love most. No other woman is qualified to eat it, especially Su Rou."
Su Xi is willing to give Su Rou a chance.
But that doesn't mean he can let it go.
The scenes of how Su Rou hurt Su Xi were all etched into Zhou Jingming's mind, and he would never forget them.
Even though Su Rou has now reformed.
None of that changes the fact that she hurt Su Xi.
"I'll cook for Su Rou. Come home quickly." Knowing that her husband was still standing up for her, Su Xi felt incredibly warm inside.
She understands Zhou Jingming.
As long as you feel sorry for her.
He would not forgive Su Rou.
She wouldn't force Zhou Jingming to accept Su Rou.
“You’re not suited to smell cooking fumes right now. Have you forgotten what happened yesterday?” Zhou Jingming reminded him.
Su Xi said playfully, "Yesterday was an accident, but everything's fine today, isn't it?"
Here's what happened.
Zhou Jingming was busy yesterday, staying in his study from noon to evening to handle work.
Su Xi couldn't bear to disturb him, so she went downstairs to cook for herself.
To her surprise, the overwhelming smell of food that hit her when she opened the refrigerator made her nauseous and vomit.
She didn't eat last night because of this.
It was still the middle of the night when Zhou Jingming made her a bowl of appetizer porridge, and she managed to eat half of it.
"The first three months of pregnancy are the most crucial. Just focus on being Mrs. Zhou. Your husband will take care of all the housework." Zhou Jingming sighed affectionately at her forehead.
Su Xi pouted and said, "It hurts so much."
"Really?" Zhou Jingming flicked himself back. "It doesn't hurt at all."
“You certainly wouldn’t want to use force, so of course it doesn’t hurt,” Su Xi said.
Zhou Jingming laughed, "I wouldn't dare to use my strength on you."
Su Xi felt a sweet warmth in her heart.
Now, she lives like she's in a honey pot, so happy she's practically blowing bubbles.
Zhou Jingming really dotes on him.
They take full responsibility for the child's daily life.
Besides preparing three meals a day for her, he also took care of all the housework.
A perfect family man.
Of course, there's also helping her take a bath.
The thought of this made Su Xi's ears turn bright red.
During the first three months of pregnancy, the fetus is still unstable, so Zhou Jingming dared not do anything reckless. But last night, he almost took advantage of her in the bathroom.
If Shen Xian hadn't suddenly visited, they might have really crossed paths and gotten involved.
