At this moment, He Tingchuan wasn't thinking that she was actually hiding something from him.
Instead, she cried.
Looking at Yun Jin, who was sobbing uncontrollably on his shoulder, He Tingchuan, this tough guy, didn't intend to push her away at this moment. Instead, he slowly opened his clenched fist and gently patted her thin, weak, pitiful, and helpless back with a gaze that was gentler than he had ever shown to a tank.
Reassured, Yun Jin's mind raced as she considered how to get He Tingchuan to protect her without discovering her transmigrated identity.
Fearing being seen as an oddball by He Tingchuan, Yun Jin used all her intelligence in this area.
"I'm so sorry, honey. I should have told you sooner. The day you came back, I had a nightmare. I dreamt that something happened to me, and a lot of people pulled me out of the artificial lake. My baby and I were gone. Waaah..."
Upon hearing this, He Tingchuan's heart tightened, and he subconsciously pulled the person into his arms: "Nonsense, you know it was a nightmare."
"But......."
He Tingchuan rebuked, "No buts."
"I'm sleepwalking now, and I suspect it's all because I was scared, waaaaah, what should I do!" Yun Jin said pitifully, her eyes brimming with tears. "What if I can't control myself and start sleepwalking again?"
"Don't worry, your man will protect you," He Tingchuan assured him.
Yun Jin's eyes lit up: "Really?"
He Tingchuan's face darkened: "Would I lie to you?"
Yun Jin was overjoyed. With her belly pressing against He Tingchuan's, she hung around his neck and laughed happily: "That's great! I knew marrying Brother He would be the right choice."
He Tingchuan: "..."
Who is your Brother He?
He Tingchuan's ears burned. He patted her back with his large hand, signaling her not to be so clingy. It would be bad if someone saw them. The door wasn't closed yet, and there were quite a few people living on this floor.
If you just pass by, you'll see them hugging each other in broad daylight. Wouldn't that make them a laughingstock?
He Tingchuan patted Yun Jin, but she didn't react.
He patted her again, and the woman on his shoulder breathed more heavily. She turned her head, and the sleeping woman breathed into his neck and ear. The warm breath made He Tingchuan stiffen.
He Tingchuan tilted his head slightly, looked at the sleeping person, paused for a moment, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The next moment, he picked her up horizontally and placed her on the bed to make her more comfortable. He also covered her with a thin blanket. When his large hand passed over her bulging belly, He Tingchuan gently and carefully touched it.
The little one was asleep and didn't know that he had been touched through his belly.
Just as He Tingchuan was about to put down the mosquito net, the sleeping person suddenly opened his eyes.
If He Tingchuan hadn't remained calm, he would have been startled by her.
The sleeping person had lifeless eyes and stared straight ahead, seemingly unaware of He Tingchuan. He then stiffly sat up, just like when he sleepwalked, and even knew to put on his shoes.
Then I walked toward the door.
He Tingchuan didn't dare to utter a sound and closed the door before Yun Jin left.
The person with calm, expressionless eyes paused for a moment, then prepared to open the door and leave.
He Tingchuan leaned against the door, blocking Yun Jin's path, his face expressionless, his gaze cold as he watched Yun Jin try to push him away. His deep voice echoed in the room: "Where are you going?"
Yun Jin: "An artificial lake."
"do what?"
"Jump into the lake."
Why did you jump?
"To complete the storyline."
He Tingchuan: "??? What plot?"
Yun Jin, who had been asking and answering questions, seemed to have been triggered into a question-and-answer mode, and unconsciously continued, "The author designed the cannon fodder original wife..."
Just then, there was a knock on the door: "Commander He, Commander He, Commander He, it's your phone. Go to the phone room and answer it. It's from Beijing. They say they have something important to discuss with you."
Yun Jin was awakened by a loud knocking on the door.
Her bright eyes regained their sparkle, and she stared dumbfounded at He Tingchuan, who was blocking the door from letting anyone leave, ignoring everyone's knocking: "What are you doing?"
The gloomy expression on He Tingchuan's face made him want to beat up the person who knocked on the door.
Seeing Yun Jin regain her senses, He Tingchuan hesitated, but in the end he said nothing. He just gave her a meaningful look, grabbed her hand, opened the door, and went out together.
Yun Jin frowned: "Where are you taking me?"
"Answer the phone." He Tingchuan was worried about leaving her alone.
Although I don't know if the nonsense she rambled on during her sleepwalking was part of the plot, the author's design, or the cannon fodder original wife?
He Tingchuan knew only that he could not let this woman out of his sight for even half a second.
He was afraid that if he wasn't careful, she would sleepwalk again and jump into the artificial lake for him to see.
He Tingchuan dared not take the risk.
Yun Jin guessed that she was probably sleepwalking again. He Tingchuan was afraid that she would sleepwalk again if she left his sight, so he would rather take her with him than leave her alone.
Yun Jin was quite happy, and no matter what the phone call was, she followed it closely.
The telephone booth is located in the courtyard and is specifically used for communication with the outside world.
Right now, only He Tingchuan's phone is ringing.
He knew it was a call from his home in Beijing, so he immediately dialed the number.
It took a while before they were brought home.
The phone call from Mrs. He said, "It's your grandfather's birthday. Take a vacation and come back this year. You haven't been back for several years. Come back for your grandfather's sake. The old man misses you."
He Tingchuan glanced at Yun Jin's large belly and said, "Let's wait a couple of days and see. If nothing's wrong, I'll take Yun Jin back to Beijing to celebrate Grandpa's birthday."
