Chapter 190 Are you two angry?
Wen Jiu didn't know when she fell asleep or how long she slept, but when she woke up, the person next to her was still there.
She stirred slightly, and a voice sounded from above her: "Awake?"
Wen Jiu's eyelashes fluttered slightly: "Mm."
"Are you hungry? Get up and eat something."
After Zhou Yanchuan finished speaking, he looked at the person who got up and walked to the bathroom without even giving him a glance, and pursed his lips again and again.
When Wen Jiu came out of the bedroom, the dining table was already full of all kinds of dishes.
But she had no appetite. She drank a few mouthfuls of porridge and then put down her spoon.
Aunt Lin, standing nearby, said anxiously, "How can this be? We haven't eaten all morning. How can we get enough nutrition from this little bit of food?"
Zhou Yanchuan frowned as he looked at the person who had only eaten a few bites of food like a cat. He was about to say something when he met her gaze and stopped.

Since finding out she was pregnant, Wen Jiu's pregnancy symptoms have become increasingly pronounced, with the morning sickness being the worst every morning.
Zhou Yanchuan took her to see many doctors, and even tried some of the methods that Aunt Lin had used during her pregnancy, but none of them worked.
While other women gain weight during pregnancy, she lost several pounds, yet she still went to work every day.
At night, while the person in bed was asleep, Zhou Yanchuan's gaze fell on her face in the dim light. He looked at her delicate eyebrows, small nose, and mouth with a deep and complicated expression.
The reason she took Qin You to the banquet was because she said she saw a woman who looked a lot like Wen Jiu and asked if she was interested.
Zhou Yanchuan knew that although the girl didn't mention it, she had been searching for her mother all these years.
So he agreed to the conditions proposed by Qin You.
He was able to see the woman as he had hoped afterward.
The well-maintained face in front of the glass window bore a striking resemblance to Wen Jiu, and even though Zhou Yanchuan had never seen her before, he was certain at a glance that he hadn't made a mistake.
No wonder Qin You recognized their relationship at just one glance.
However, the days she spent living in Qingyang and that little girl in Qingyang were long gone from her life, something she no longer wanted to recall.
She didn't want to see Wen Jiu, let alone acknowledge her.
Zhou Yanchuan didn't want to hurt anyone again, so he kept the matter a secret.
But if this was kept secret, the reason for bringing Qin You to the banquet would be impossible to explain.

Zhou Yanchuan stared at the girl's face for a long time before looking down. Under the dim light, her lower abdomen was not yet protruding, but upon closer inspection, one could see that there was already a slight curve.
He raised his hand and stopped two centimeters away from her abdomen.
"Be good, baby, and stop bothering Mommy."
That night, the dim yellow light in the bedroom was always on, and whenever the girl on the bed showed any reaction, the man beside her would get up to soothe her.
As the warm water entered her throat, Wen Jiu knew it was Zhou Yanchuan. She even considered just letting it go, thinking that if he didn't want to say it, then so be it.
But I can't help caring about it.
She didn't know how to face him for a moment.
Therefore, when Lin Meng invited her to stay at her place to rest during her pregnancy, she agreed without any hesitation.
Lin Meng's lover is from Yuncheng, and she went there after graduation.
Besides being the owner of the guesthouse, she draws comics and lives a fulfilling life.
As soon as they heard she was pregnant, they immediately sent a message in their small group asking her to go to Yuncheng.
Wen Jiu's recent condition is indeed not suitable for her to go to work. She took leave, thinking that she would go there to get through her safe period before coming back.
When she heard her say "okay," Lin Meng asked again and again, "Really?"
Wen Jiu smiled and replied with a nodding emoji.
Xia Shi and Li Yue both sent a message: "Waaah~"
Xiaxia: "I want to go too."
Yueyue: "I'll come find you guys after Fashion Week ends in a few days."
After receiving these two messages, Lin Meng replied to Li Yue with a simple "Okay".
Then she tagged @LittleDogYeye, saying, "Come whenever you want after your competition is over."
After Wen Jiu decided to go to Yuncheng, she told Zhou Yanchuan about it during dinner that evening.
After listening, he didn't speak immediately. After a few seconds, he said, "I'll go with you."
Wen Jiu paused, her hand holding the spoon still, and said softly, "No need."
He turned his head to look at her.
She didn't even look up again.
Zhou Yanchuan pursed his lips tightly, and after a few seconds, he got up and walked towards the bedroom to help her pack her things.
After watching him leave, Wen Jiu lost her appetite and sat on the sofa for a while before feeling tired.
She grabbed a blanket and covered herself, then drifted off to sleep.
When I woke up again, I was already in the bedroom, but the person next to me was not there.
Wen Jiu stared at the ceiling for a moment, then faintly heard voices. She quietly got out of bed and opened the door.
In the living room, Zhou Yanchuan sat on the sofa, with Aunt Lin and Lu Nian in front of him.
The warm yellow light fell on him; it was hard to tell whether it was the gentle light or him.
A deep, warm voice sounded in my ear.
"Aunt Lin, Xiao Jiu vomits the most every morning. Remember to get her up a little earlier, give her some warm water, and some sour apricots to help her calm down."
"She hasn't been very active lately, so I coax her to walk around in the yard every day."
"Don't let her read for so long at night, and try to get her to eat some vegetables."
"She's worried about stretch marks on her stomach, so I remember to apply essential oil to her every day."
...
He was talking there, and Aunt Lin and Lu Nian were taking notes.
Wen Jiu didn't even remember her having so many habits, yet he blurted them out.
She looked at him, her eyes brimming with tears.

Wen Jiu's flight was the following afternoon, and Zhou Yanchuan accompanied her.
The car bumped along the road, and she soon became sleepy.
Zhou Yanchuan held her close, letting her lean against him, gently stroking her back and softly coaxing her to sleep.
The driver in front was Xu Qian, and this was the first time he had met this legendary wife.
Lu Nian always told him that their boss doted on his wife, but he didn't really believe it at first. How much could he dote on her?
Seeing this today, I finally understand.
The woman was much smaller than I had imagined, and her face was so beautiful that I couldn't take my eyes off her; her exposed skin was as white as milk.
Upon arriving in Yuncheng, Wen Jiu saw Lin Meng waiting for her at the arrivals area as soon as she got off the plane.
The girl clearly spotted them at a glance, and waved the moment their eyes met.
"My deskmate."
The two hugged as soon as they met.
The man following behind Lin Meng nodded slightly to Zhou Yanchuan, clearly a little flustered: "Let me help you carry it."
“It’s nothing,” Zhou Yanchuan said.
When Lin Meng heard his voice, she looked over as if she remembered something.
She should have looked away, but once she did, seeing such a handsome face up close made her blush instantly.
This man is getting more and more handsome as he matures.
She looked away shyly, then lowered her gaze to Wen Jiu's stomach, asking cautiously, "Are you really pregnant?"
Wen Jiu was charmed by the girl's tone and nodded: "I really have one."
"How amazing."
Wen Jiu smiled again.
The group didn't exchange pleasantries at the airport for long before getting into the car.
On the way to the guesthouse, Lin Meng suddenly noticed something was wrong.
She whispered to the girl beside her, "Are you two angry?"
Wen Jiu was taken aback and denied it: "No."
"Not yet," Lin Mengcai said softly, not believing him. "She won't even let him hold her hand."
