Chapter 1449: A Life That Refuses to Be Balanced (End)
"Xiaochu, is the baby in your belly well behaved?" Zhou Zhanyi came back from outside and walked to Tang Shichu tenderly, looking at her bulging belly and asked.
After Tang Shichu graduated from graduate school, he married Zhou Zhan naturally. Now their child is several months pregnant and is about to be born.
After graduating, Dr. Zhou Zhan did not stay on to teach or join any research institute. It was not because he gave up on research, but because he preferred to be more free and did not want to be closely watched like a protected animal, so he decided to build his own research institute so that he would have more autonomy.
It was also for this reason that after Tang Shichu became pregnant, he had so much time to accompany her.
Tang Shichu said with a smile: "The child is very naughty. He was jumping around in my stomach just now."
"Really? Let me feel it." Zhou Zhan said, sitting down next to Tang Shichu, holding her with one hand and resting the other hand on her belly.
After a while, the belly under his hand suddenly bulged up and was obviously moving. He was immediately surprised and said, "He moved again! Little rascal, don't move so much, it will hurt mommy's belly."
However, the child under his arms did not listen to him. Tang Shichu's belly bulged here and there, moving up and down non-stop, as if he was dancing inside.
Tang Shichu covered her belly, squinted her eyes, and said to her belly in a warning tone: "Little thing, if you move again, when you come out, mom will spank you."
As if frightened by the mother's words, the little guy in the belly finally stopped moving and calmed down.
"Why does he listen to you and not me?" Zhou Zhan looked depressed, "Is it because I am not a dignified father?"
"Hehe, maybe so. When he is born, you will be the loving father and I will be the strict mother." Tang Shichu said with a smile, "One of us will play the good cop and the other the bad cop. I guarantee that we can discipline him well..."
When Zhou Zhan heard her words, he chuckled and said, "You've arranged everything perfectly for him before he was even born."
"Of course, he is my child after all. If he wasn't born by me, I wouldn't bother to care about him." Tang Shichu was very confident.
Zhou Zhan touched her rosy face. Tang Shichu's skin was fair, soft and tender, without any blemish on her face. She was totally different from ordinary pregnant women who would have swollen and blemish-covered faces after pregnancy. Her figure did not change much either, only her belly gradually grew bigger. However, her limbs were still slender and long, which was the envy of all pregnant women.
Zhou Zhan felt that he loved her more and more, otherwise why did he feel that she was getting more and more beautiful in the past few years? When she first entered university, she was so plain-looking that he could hardly remember what she looked like then; but when he met her again in his senior year, he found that she seemed to have opened up, and her whole body became gradually more beautiful like a blooming flower... Isn't this proof that beauty is in the eyes of his lover?
"It would be great if the child looked like you." Zhou Zhan said with emotion, then kissed Tang Shichu gently.
Tang Shichu put his arms around his neck and deepened the kiss. After several minutes, the two stopped. Tang Shichu smiled and touched Zhou Zhan's handsome face, which had become more and more outstanding in recent years, and said, "It would be better if he looked like you."
The child was in Tang Shichu's belly. Even though he hadn't been born yet, she already knew it was a boy, so she hoped that her son would look like Zhou Zhan, and be handsome, smart and steady in the future.
"Then let's have two, one like you and one like me, okay?" Zhou Zhan said, staring at Tang Shichu with affection in his eyes.
"Okay." Tang Shichu answered without hesitation.
The couple is deeply in love and full of anticipation for their upcoming child.
However, another couple was not so happy.
Li Manyan spent several years enduring Mrs. Lan's torture. After she became pregnant again and gave birth to a son, she finally succeeded in marrying Lan Jigao. However, she only obtained a marriage certificate to give her son the title of marriage and child, but did not hold a wedding because Mrs. Lan felt it was shameful for her son to marry her and did not agree to hold a wedding at all.
However, although the hero and heroine successfully got married, their relationship was not as good as in the original world. First, Mrs. Lan disliked Li Manyan and spared no effort to slander Li Manyan in front of Lan Jigao, saying that she was scheming and trying to curry favor with the powerful. Second, Li Manyan failed to use Tang Shichu's relationship to help Lan Jigao obtain the scientific research results of Zhou Zhan's team. Lan Jigao's high-tech could not develop, so he took his anger out on Li Manyan and beat her. As a result, there was a friction between the two. This friction became more and more serious under Mrs. Lan's instigation, causing their relationship to deteriorate and gradually develop into a resentful couple...
Li Manyan lived a very depressed life in the Lan family, but Lan Jigao just couldn't understand her, so she began to complain and blame their father and grandmother in front of the children, causing the two children to have a lot of opinions about Lan Jigao and his mother. The children were young and could not hide their emotions, so they inevitably exposed their hostility when facing Lan Jigao and Mrs. Lan. Mrs. Lan found that she was actually hated and rejected by her grandchildren, and she was immediately furious. After investigation, she found that it was Li Manyan's doing, so the conflict between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law became even greater, and finally ended with Mrs. Lan taking Li Manyan and Lan Jigao's son away for separate education.
Of course Li Manyan struggled to object, but no one in the Lan family took her opinion seriously. When Lan Jigao learned that his son had been taught by her to be hostile to him, he naturally could not allow her to continue teaching him in this way, so he agreed to Mrs. Lan's suggestion to take his son away. The rift in the couple's relationship became even bigger, and it was just waiting for the day when it would completely explode.
But these had nothing to do with Tang Shichu. She successfully gave birth to her first child with Zhou Zhan, and then gave birth to another one a few years later. As expected, she had a son and a daughter, a complete family.
Sometimes they would bring their children back to the orphanage to visit the elderly director. When the director saw that the two children he cared about were living such a happy life, he would die with a smile on his face.
"Mom, what are you looking at so intently?" Zhou Yao, who had just returned home from school, threw down his schoolbag and ran behind Tang Shichu, hugged her neck and looked at her phone, "The three children born to a woman who cheated on her husband after marriage are not her husband's..."
"It's a piece of social news." Tang Shichu patted his daughter's head and said, "Mom saw this woman many years ago. Mom also knew this unlucky husband."
"Really?" Zhou Yao's eyes widened in surprise. "Mom! This is unbelievable. The protagonist of the news is so close to us?"
"Yeah, mom also finds it incredible." Tang Shichu said with a smile, but she was not surprised at all in her heart. After all, she had predicted all this more than ten years ago.
