Chapter 45 Pregnant
As the weather gradually turns cooler, the leaves of the sycamore trees by the door turn yellow.
Su Ruan became interested and brought out her painting tools to sketch in the yard.
When Xiaoxue came over with the coffee, she saw this beautiful scene.
The boss, wearing a beige cashmere coat and black sheepskin boots, with his waist-length hair gently blowing in the breeze, stood under a golden sycamore tree.
The warm, orange light shone through the gaps in the leaves, bathing her in a golden glow.
Su Ruan held a palette in her left hand and a paintbrush in her right, sketching the beautiful autumn scenery.
Little did they know that at that moment, in the eyes of others, she was a breathtakingly beautiful sight.
Xiaoxue gently placed the coffee on the table and couldn't help but exclaim, "Boss, you look so radiant lately! Your face is so fair and your skin is so smooth and supple, you look like a woman deeply in love."
Upon hearing this, Su Ruan put down the palette, took out her phone, and used the screen to check the color. "Is it?"
She has indeed been living a very comfortable life for the past month.
After drinking Chinese medicine for half a month, and with someone feeding her in different ways every day, and under her insistence, the frequency returned to normal.
Her skin condition has indeed visibly improved.
"Yes, although the boss was very beautiful before, she seemed like an ethereal fairy who didn't care about worldly affairs. But recently she's become more and more lively and down-to-earth. It seems like her husband is taking very good care of her!" Xiaoxue nodded vigorously.
Serving?
Su Ruan thought of some scenarios and her face flushed. She glanced sideways at Xiao Xue.
"Don't talk nonsense."
Xiaoxue was a little confused. She was just expressing her admiration for the boss's husband. How did she say something wrong?
"Beep beep—"
A few car horns sounded at the entrance. The two turned their heads and saw Gu Jinyuan getting out of the car and walking towards them.
He was also wearing a beige cashmere coat and black sneakers, with his long legs peeking out from the gaps in the coat.
He looks like a noble young master who stepped out of a comic book.
Xiaoxue couldn't help but swoon, covering her face and whispering in Su Ruan's ear, "Boss's husband is so handsome, I always marvel at the wonder of the Creator when I see him."
When he sculpted you and your husband, he must have put in meticulous care. But for ordinary people like us, he just casually flicked a few specks of clay after finishing the sculpting.
Su Ruan couldn't help but smile. Xiao Xue was becoming more and more daring and humorous, even daring to tease them in front of her.
"If you have anything happy to share, tell me so I can be happy too."
Gu Jinyuan walked up to Su Ruan, gently patted the top of her head, and asked.
"Nothing, why are you here so early today? It's not time to leave work yet!"
Although she said that, Su Ruan had already put down her paintbrush, packed her things, and prepared to leave work.
"The weather's nice today, I'd like to take you out to eat. After we eat, we can watch the sunset together." Gu Jinyuan's gaze softened even more.
"Okay." Su Ruan was tempted and quickened her pace in packing her things.
Xiaoxue, being very perceptive, stepped forward and said, "Boss, I'll pack these things up. You and your husband can go and enjoy some time alone."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, my little Xue." Su Ruan was in a good mood and reached out to pinch Xiao Xue's cheek.
Xiaoxue smiled and leaned her face in, ready to enjoy the boss's caresses, but before her cheek could even touch his fingers, she was intercepted halfway.
Su Ruan stared in astonishment at Gu Jinyuan, who had offered his face to her. "What are you doing?"
Gu Jinyuan's brows furrowed slightly in displeasure. "Is my face hard to pinch? Why do you want to pinch other people's faces?"
Su Ruan and Xiao Xue were both stunned. Xiao Xue quietly took a few steps back.
Even behind the boss, you could feel his resentment.
The boss's husband is absolutely smitten with his boss, keeping a close watch on him every day and not even allowing women to get close to him.
Su Ruan shook her head helplessly, said goodbye to Xiao Xue, and then walked towards the car with Gu Jinyuan in her arms.
"Gu Jinyuan, how can you be jealous of a woman?"
Gu Jinyuan showed no remorse. "My wife is so beautiful that she's attractive to both men and women. Of course, I have to take precautions."
Su Ruan rolled her eyes helplessly, and Gu Jinyuan lowered his head and kissed her eyes with a smile.
"Even rolling her eyes is uniquely beautiful."
Su Ruan laughed in exasperation, speechless. She got into the car, fastened her seatbelt, and was about to leave when her phone suddenly rang.
She took it out and glanced at it, and her good mood instantly crumbled.
"What's wrong?" Gu Jinyuan noticed the change in Su Ruan's expression.
“It’s my mom calling,” Su Ruan murmured.
"What is she up to now?" Gu Jinyuan's face also darkened. "No need to answer. I have a feeling it's nothing good."
Su Ruan knew Wen Ru wouldn't call her unless something was wrong, but she still answered, "Hello, Mom..."
"I need to go home right away, I need to talk to you about something."
Hearing the cold tone on the other end, Su Ruan's expression also turned indifferent. "Is there anything that can't be said over the phone?"
"No, something terrible has happened at home, you have to come back."
"I'm busy."
"You..." The other person took a few breaths before coldly saying, "Your sister is pregnant, and it's Jiang Siyan's child. Come back here and we'll discuss resolving the issue of your engagement with Jiang Siyan."
"What? Su Xin is pregnant? With Jiang Siyan's child?" Su Ruan was shocked and couldn't believe what she was hearing.
After hanging up the phone, she looked at Gu Jinyuan and asked, "Didn't you say that Jiang Siyan was crippled by you? How did he get Su Xin pregnant?"
Gu Jinyuan frowned upon hearing this, "Impossible, I did it myself, his thing definitely wouldn't stand up."
After pondering for a while, Su Ruan decided to go home.
She believed Gu Jinyuan's judgment; the news of Su Xin's pregnancy was very likely a conspiracy that could harm the Su family's interests. She could treat the Su family as strangers from now on.
But thinking of the kindness she had shown in raising her, she couldn't just stand by and watch the Su family fall into a trap.
"go back."
......
When the two arrived at the Su family home, the villa was already surrounded by layers of reporters.
Under the protection of the Su family's bodyguards, the two successfully entered the villa.
Upon entering the living room, Su Ruan saw the Jiang family of three and Su Xin sitting in her living room, while Su Maoshi and Wen Ru, who were sitting on the other side, looked extremely unpleasant.
They all saw Su Ruan return, but no one greeted her. Instead, Jiang Siyan spoke first.
"Ah Ruan, you're back?"
His voice was so gentle it was almost unbelievable; anyone who didn't know better would think he was Su Ruan's husband.
Gu Jinyuan narrowed his eyes, and seeing the look of amazement in Jiang Siyan's eyes as he looked at Su Ruan, his anger surged instantly.
He stepped forward, successfully blocking Jiang Siyan's clingy gaze, and sneered.
"Young Master Jiang is quite skilled. He can get someone pregnant even when that thing is ruined. It's truly a wonder of the world."
The Jiang family of three already disliked Gu Jinyuan, and his sarcastic words instantly ignited their anger. Jiang's mother stood up abruptly.
"You pretty boy, who gave you permission to speak? You should be grateful to us for not killing you."
"Tch—" Gu Jinyuan's eyes were filled with disdain. "Is it that you don't want to kill me? I think it's because I'm lucky."
In the past month, he has been assassinated eight times. If it were an ordinary person, they would have been reincarnated countless times by now.
"What do you mean?" Su Ruan sensed the murderous intent between the two sides and understood the meaning behind Jiang's mother's words.
