Xiang Zhilan smiled with pursed lips, but did not answer her. She opened the bag of plums and handed it to her.
Ni Sitian didn't think much of it, assuming that she was handing the plums to her to calm her nausea, so she took the plums and ate two.
The sour taste relieved the nausea a lot, so I couldn't resist eating two more.
"Eat less, too much will hurt your stomach," Xiang Zhilan said, trying to stop her.
Ni Sitian gave up, but it was strange. She never liked sour snacks like plums, and Xiang Zhilan knew that, so why did he bring so many? It seemed like he was going to let her eat them for several months.
"It's getting late, I'll be going now." Xiang Zhilan stood up, supporting her belly. She hadn't been able to get up easily lately, probably because of the twins. After five months, her belly had grown as big as an inflating balloon.
Seeing that she was worried, Ni Sitian escorted Xiang Zhilan downstairs.
As soon as Xiang Zhilan sat in the back seat, her phone rang. She glanced at it and sure enough, it was Shen Muzhi.
He really does call her three times a day, even though we see each other every day. If she goes out for a short while, he calls as if he's worried she might run away. Each time he calls, he doesn't say much, just asking what she's doing and reminding her to be careful when eating and walking.
She never realized before that Shen Muzhi, with his cold and gloomy personality, could be so meticulous.
"I'll be back in half an hour," Xiang Zhilan replied with a helpless smile. What surprised her most was how clingy he was, as if he couldn't be separated from her for even a moment.
After hanging up the phone, she chuckled and shook her head.
Now, if someone asked her how she felt about Shen Muzhi, she could probably answer that question.
It was obvious that he was the father of her child. He was a good bed partner, and he treated her very well. She was grateful to him and also liked him a little, and it seemed that she liked him more and more each day. As for whether it would turn into love, she felt that she should let nature take its course.
Mutual love is a rare and precious thing in this world. She is content with their current situation, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, she plans to spend the rest of her life with him.
"Madam, Mr. Xin is ahead," Ah Chao reminded Xiang Zhilan.
Xiang Zhilan looked out the window and sure enough, she saw Xin Zikai standing alone on the curb across the street.
"Let's stop for a bit." Xiang Zhilan rolled down the car window, wanting to call Xin Zikai to get in the car so they could go home together.
Before she could wave, a woman dressed in black clothes, black pants, and a black hat walked up behind Xin Zikai.
Xiang Zhilan had a deep impression of this woman; she had seen her half a month ago, and Shen Muzhi had been staring at her.
Actually, she was quite curious. Shen Muzhi usually had no interest in women, so his reaction that day was really strange.
Why does this woman give Shen Muzhi a different feeling?
Xiang Zhilan looked at Xin Zikai and that woman; after exchanging a few words, they seemed to have gotten into an argument.
Xin Zikai grabbed the woman's wrist, as if he wanted to take her somewhere.
But the woman didn't seem to agree and wanted to shake off Xin Zikai's hand.
As the two continued their tug-of-war, the woman seemed to get angry. In the struggle, her hat was knocked off, and her long black hair cascaded down her back.
Xiang Zhilan saw her face and covered her mouth in shock. Her face had obviously been repaired, with so many tiny scars and very blurry features.
When the woman saw that her hat had fallen off, she quickly picked it up, put it back on, and turned to leave.
Xin Zikai shouted at her retreating figure, "Ayan! You can't go on like this!"
