Chapter 198 Ah Yan deliberately kept it from us
Ji Tanyuan's pregnancy began when she started wearing flat shoes.
Few people knew she was pregnant after only a month. Apart from occasional nausea, vomiting, and loss of appetite, Ji Tanyuan was actually in pretty good condition.
Ji Tanyuan still went to work every day, and no one noticed because she wore loose clothing.
Because of the need to stabilize the pregnancy, I sometimes take a break.
However, she didn't let Ji Qing come out of retirement to work. Otherwise, if her semi-retired father had to work, people who didn't know the situation would think she was no longer capable.
Ji Qing was just secretly working overtime for Ji Tanyuan.
Zhong Yan wished he could stick to Ji Tanyuan every day, following her wherever she went.
Ji Tanyuan was speechless; it was too annoying.
She turned her head, her face grim: "You're just following me around."
Zhong Yan frowned. "Don't be so careless. I read in a book that we need to be extra careful at times like this. I have to serve you every moment."
She turned and sat on the sofa, pursing her lips, feeling a little embarrassed, but she really had a craving, so she said, "I want to eat stinky tofu, the kind that's both sour and spicy."
Yes, pregnancy can make people's appetites strange. Ji Tanyuan was captivated by a smell that wafted into her car during a ride, even amidst a feast of high-end food.
At the time, Ji Tanyuan was suffering from a loss of appetite and was in a bad mood. She happened to smell it once, and her sense of smell may have changed. She thought that smell was simply a delicacy.
But when she looked closely and realized it was stinky tofu, she broke down and cried.
Zhong Yan, who was following behind, didn't dare to laugh. He bought her a portion but only let her have a bite.
Ji Tanyuan ate while crying, then looked at Zhong Yan through teary eyes: "Were you laughing just now?"
Zhong Yan touched her nose, raised an eyebrow, and said without changing her expression, "What am I laughing at? If you like eating this, you're still the elegant Princess Ji. It's okay, I won't tell your fake girlfriends."
Zhong Yan continued to comfort them: "If you ask me, it's because they don't understand good food. Some things may smell bad, but they taste great."
Ji Tanyuan took a bite and said, "But it smells amazing too."
Zhong Yan: "..."
Zhong Yan was worried that she would want to eat it again in the future, but she was also afraid that the oil outside was not healthy, so she asked the boss and bought the recipe to have someone make it specially.
I didn't expect to use it so soon.
Because Ji Tanyuan was pregnant, Zhong Yan allowed the family to have a live-in nanny.
The nannies he hired were all highly experienced and had excellent reputations in the industry; one or two of them were even poached from other wealthy families at high prices.
As long as you have enough money, you can find someone to help you. But poaching a nanny is like poaching someone's parents. Right now, Zhong Yan is being "hunted down" by employers for sending people to steal a nanny's assistant.
The nanny, who was hired at a high price, felt guilty watching her employer cook and tried to help many times, but was refused each time.
Ji Tanyuan looked at the small piece in front of her, less than a bite's worth.
Why is there only one?
Zhong Yan: "It's fine to just satisfy your craving, but you have no idea how salty this stuff is when it's made. Fermented tofu can also easily cause microbial infections. What if you get an stomachache after eating it?"
Ji Tanyuan: "But there's only half a bite."
"Everyone says it satisfies cravings, and we're not stopping you from eating it. Why don't you chew it a little longer, savor the taste, and then swallow it?"
Zhong Yan put the water aside and patted her head: "Bear with it, we'll name the baby Stinky Tofu after he's born."
Ji Tanyuan was speechless, but her attention was diverted: "Nonsense."
There were actually many such instances. Ji Tanyuan would sometimes get angry, and her reasons were varied and bizarre. She would unabashedly display her usual restrained pickiness and spoiled nature.
For example, Zhong Yan not letting her touch his abs is just ungrateful.
Zhong Yan's sharp tongue hurt her; she was malicious.
For example, the flowers in the company lobby were too ugly and bothered her eyes; her aesthetic sense is terrible.
Zhong Yan felt that this was not unreasonable, but that there was a good reason for it. However, he said that he didn't want her to touch his abs because it was for her own good.
Sexual intercourse is not recommended during the early stages of pregnancy.
Until four months later.
This situation improves once the pregnant woman enters a stable period.
Her lower abdomen was also slightly showing.
The news spread to a small circle.
The third-generation heir of the Ji family, and an unknown descendant of the Zhong family, is coming.
Zhang Zhang listened intently to her stomach, then his eyes suddenly lit up. "I heard it! She's greeting me!"
Ji Tanyuan pushed her head away, "What? I'm just hungry."
Ji Tanyuan was four months pregnant, and her face was radiant and glowing.
Because the weight gain during pregnancy must be controlled within a certain range, Ji Tanyuan's diet has always been carefully balanced and controlled by the nutritionist and nanny. She has not gained much weight and still has a gentle smile, delicate features, and full lips.
The excessive secretion of progesterone made her look like a warm goddess.
However, her decisive and efficient work style remained unchanged. During this period, she propelled Jishitong Jigao Technology to the top spot among A-share new energy stocks, transforming it into a leading domestic enterprise.
Tongji High-Tech took six years to successfully go public, and Ji Tanyuan was undoubtedly an outstanding leader who enjoyed unparalleled success for a time.
Her appearance at the press conference with her pregnant belly shocked the business community.
It was on the eve of the Spring Festival that...
Besides Ji Tanyuan's extraordinary ability to put Tongji Gaoke on the throne, the other topic of discussion was the news of her pregnancy.
When Zhong Fangqi found out, he spilled his tea, and even Zhou Yanyu stood up.
She then slowly sat down, somewhat lost in thought: "It was Ayan who deliberately kept it from us."
"He doesn't want us to know."
Zhong Fangqi wiped the table with a tissue herself. "Find some time to go to Hujiang. If we don't acknowledge them, is that good for the child?"
"What will outsiders think of the child? He's not accepted by the Zhong family. Outsiders don't understand the reasons. They'll just think I'm not acknowledging him. Where will I put my face? Logically and emotionally, once they find out, we have to go there and show them our attitude."
“Ayan does whatever she wants without considering the children, which is absurd,” Zhong Fangqi said in a deep voice.
Grandma Zhong naturally learned of Ji Tanyuan's pregnancy, and she prayed that she could see the arrival of the next generation before she died.
Unexpectedly, it was Ji Tanyuan, who was divorced, who became pregnant first, which left her with mixed feelings.
