Gu Tingmo's gaze swept over her fair thighs and finally landed on her bright red, beautiful face.
"Auntie gave me the key to your room."
He waved the key in front of Shen Jia's eyes, and to Shen Jia, his devilishly handsome face was extremely irritating.
Shen Jia; "..."
She finally understood where her precious son's habit of casually handing out keys came from; it turned out he inherited it from his dear mother.
Just as she was about to tell Gu Tingmo to get out, a small head appeared at the door.
"Mommy!"
Shen Zhixia was wearing a black and white cow-patterned pajama set. Her round little face looked sleepy and cute, and Shen Jia's heart melted instantly.
"Xiaxia!"
Shen Zhixia hugged her small pillow, jumped onto the bed in a few steps, and pushed aside Gu Tingmo who was standing next to her.
"Pretty Mommy, baby wants to sleep with you."
Gu Tingmo: "???"
"You brat, you're trying to steal my woman?"
Gu Tingmo wasn't buying Shen Zhixia's cute act. He grabbed her by the collar, ready to throw her away, but his hand was slapped instead.
"Gu Tingmo, Xiaxia and I want to sleep, so please get out!"
Xia Xia raised her round eyes and glanced at Gu Tingmo, letting out a faint, cold sneer from her nose.
"Hmph." Who told him not to let me have ice cream today? Bad dad.
Gu Tingmo: "???"
His authority as a father had completely vanished.
Shen Jia rolled her eyes at her, hugged Xia Xia in her arms, covered her with the blanket, turned her back to Gu Tingmo, and ignored him.
Gu Tingmo was amused and annoyed by Shen Jia's actions.
This woman really doesn't like him, but...
The man's eyes turned dangerous.
Once she marries into the Gu family, she'll be sleeping with him sooner or later. Let's see how he deals with this woman then.
Shen Jia will soon realize how terrifying a man can be when he holds a grudge.
With a snap, the room was plunged into darkness.
Gu Tingmo walked out and then gently closed the door.
With the oppressive feeling gone, Shen Jia's nerves finally relaxed.
Xiaxia opened her round eyes and looked at her mother; "Mommy, why are you so afraid of Daddy?"
Shen Jia looked a little uncomfortable, and patted his little bottom in a mock fierce manner; "You brat, your mommy is not afraid of anything, why would I be afraid of him?"
Xiaxia wasn't afraid; instead, she giggled and said, "Mommy, if you're not afraid of Daddy, why are you hesitant to marry him?"
Shen Jia was somewhat surprised by Xia Xia's choice of words; she used "dare not" instead of "did not want to".
"You brat, how old are you? Don't pry into adult matters. Besides, isn't your mom getting married soon?"
Xiaxia stroked Shen Jia's face with his little hand; "Mommy, don't be afraid, Xiaxia will protect you, Daddy wouldn't dare to treat you badly."
Although he didn't know what his mother had gone through in the past, he knew that her reluctance to get married wasn't simply because she disliked it...
Shen Jia felt a sweet warmth in her heart, as if she had been given a piece of honey, and she couldn't help but kiss the little guy on the cheek.
"He truly is my good son!"
After closing the door, Gu Tingmo did not leave immediately. The conversation inside the room clearly reached his ears, and the man's slightly lowered eyes were full of contemplation.
...
Time passed day by day. These past few days, when Yu Chiyan came home in the evening, he would force her to do it. To prevent her from running out to buy any medicine, Yu Chiyan would wait until noon the next day before going to work. After seventy-two hours, no matter what medicine she took, it was no use.
That day, Su Yaoyao was sitting on the sofa in the living room reading a book after breakfast, while Yu Chiyan was leaning back lazily on the sofa, his gaze fixed on Su Yaoyao's slender waist, his brows furrowing unconsciously.
His gaze was so sharp and intense that Su Yaoyao couldn't calm down at all.
Why are you looking at me like that?
Yu Chiyan leaned back on the sofa, raised his hand to his forehead, and looked as lazy as a fox.
"If you feel unwell recently, please don't try to ignore it."
Su Yaoyao paused slightly as she turned the pages of the book, and couldn't help but look up at him.
"I'm fine, I don't feel uncomfortable anywhere."
Upon hearing this, Yu Chiyan lowered his eyes in thought. This couldn't be. So many times, how come there's still no sign of pregnancy? Could it be that he hasn't tried hard enough?
Thinking of this, Yu Chiyan frowned even more deeply.
Is Su Yaoyao pretending to beg for mercy every night?
Su Yaoyao appeared to be reading a book, but her eyes were fixed on Yu Chiyan out of the corner of her eye.
Last time she escaped, she spent the night in the sea. When Jiang Wen took her for a full-body checkup, the doctor said that she was already prone to feeling cold, and that incident would probably have an even greater impact on her. He said that she would not be able to conceive during her marriage and would need to get treatment as soon as possible.
She didn't take it seriously at the time, so she didn't listen to the doctor and get the medicine. Now that she thinks about it, she was right not to take it seriously. Yu Chiyan wanted her to get pregnant, but that man had no idea that her current body was incapable of conceiving.
However, since he did it every night, Su Yaoyao was still a little worried, after all, the doctor had only said that it was not advisable to get pregnant, not that she couldn't get pregnant.
Aren't you going to work yet?
She suddenly asked a question.
Yu Chiyan snapped out of his reverie and glanced at her. "It's not even eleven o'clock yet, it's still early."
Su Yaoyao glanced at the alarm clock on the wall; it was 10:58.
She felt a little helpless; Yu Chiyan was really keeping a close eye on her.
Su Yaoyao ignored the man beside her and forced herself to focus on reading.
About half an hour later, Yu Chiyan stood up and straightened the wrinkles on his clothes.
