Time gradually smoothed over the sadness, and after a few days, Su Yuheng gradually adapted to life at home. In order to take care of Gu Nianxi, he hired two aunts, one to cook and the other to clean.
Aunt Wu, who was cleaning the house, was from the Northeast. She spoke in a certain way and often made Gu Nianxi laugh. Su Yuheng, who was in the study on the second floor, could not help but laugh when he heard her laughter.
The cook, Aunt Li, is from N City, and is good at cooking local dishes. Since Aunt Li came, Gu Nianxi's appetite has greatly increased, and Su Yuheng no longer has to worry about it.
What Gu Nianxi asks the most every day is...
"Aunt Li, what's for lunch?"
"Aunt Li, what are you having for dinner?"
As the saying goes, three women make a show. After these two aunts came, Gu Nianxi was no longer lonely. Once the three of them started chatting, they couldn't stop talking.
"I suddenly felt that men in ancient times were quite pitiful."
Su Yuheng lay on the bed and realized.
"Why?" Gu Nianxi hugged his arm curiously and asked.
"With three women together, the roof is about to lift off. How to deal with these four or five? No wonder men rarely go home."
Gu Nianxi chuckled and bit him on the arm, "You mean I'm quarreling with you, then I'll go back to school next Monday."
"I'll wait for my reexamination tomorrow and hear what the doctor says."
"good."
During the review the next day, the doctor severely criticized Su Yuheng. He stated that Gu Nianxi's condition was very stable and there was no need to lose her normal life. With the doctor's advice, Gu Nianxi finally regained her freedom and returned to school normally.
Every day, Su Yuheng drove her to the school gate. After watching her enter the campus, he parked the car nearby and sat in the school's coffee shop, waiting for her to finish school.
Ever since the Zhao Ziti incident, Su Yuheng had lingering fears. He was always worried that Zhao Ziti would come to trouble Gu Nianxi again.
"Sir, is it still a latte?"
"Um."
"Are you waiting for someone every day? Since you sat here, the business in my store has improved."
Su Yuheng smiled politely and pointed to the building not far away, "My wife studies in that building."
"Oh~" the female clerk raised her eyebrows and gave Su Yuheng a thumbs up, "Mr. Perfect."
Because Gu Nianxi was about to graduate, she didn't have many classes a day. Every day, Su Yuheng pretended to arrive at the school gate early, never letting her know that he had been waiting for her here.
It wasn't until one day that he felt that the sunlight coming through the window was blocked by something, and he realized that Gu Nianxi was holding her pockets with her hands and looking at him with her head tilted.
"Why are you here?"
"My classmates are all saying that there was a very handsome man sitting there recently in the coffee shop. Everyone is guessing who this man belongs to. Why don't I come here to see how handsome he is? I didn't expect him to be from my family."
Su Yuheng's face darkened, "Are you holding your belly out specifically to see this handsome guy?"
"you guess?"
"You dare."
Gu Nianxi saw that he was anxious and said with a smile: "They said that man's eyes are so beautiful, like a fox, so I guessed it was my A Heng."
Su Yuheng pursed his lips and smiled, stood up, walked to her, stretched out his hand to her, "Let's go, Mrs. Fox, go home."
"Um!"
After Gu Nianxi stood up, Su Yuheng arranged the scarf for her, and then led her out of the coffee shop.
The clerk at the bar looked at their backs and smiled like an aunt.
"It's so warm."
…………
A month passed and early spring ushered in. Gu Nianxi was already four months pregnant and was only slightly pregnant due to her slim body.
One afternoon, Xia Mo made an appointment with Gu Nianxi for a small gathering. Su Yuheng sent her to the date, said hello to Xia Mo, and then turned around and left.
Looking at Su Yuheng's handsome back at the end of the summer, she couldn't help but feel funny. She really didn't expect that this man would give up such a big career and be willing to live a life of rice, ginger, vinegar and tea at home.
"What are you laughing at?" Gu Nianxi followed Xia Mo's gaze and looked back, seeing the corner of Su Yuheng's windbreaker disappearing around the corner.
"I really admire you for making the gods from heaven come down to earth to experience the fireworks of the human world."
"Hey, don't mention it. Although our life is very warm now, every time I secretly see him dazed in the yard, I feel very guilty. Does he have any regrets for giving up so much for me? He used to be so career-minded.
, now they revolve around me all day long, this kind of gap is not something ordinary people can adapt to."
Xia Mo nodded, "But people will change, like me."
When Gu Nianxi saw her take off her hat, she realized that she had a new hairstyle. Her original short hair had grown to ear length, and her hair was dyed flaxen gray. Her skin was that cool white color in late summer, and with this hairstyle
The color makes the skin appear white and glowing.
She casually tucked one side of her hair behind her ear. Looking at her like this, she looked beautiful and sassy.
"You look a lot like a friend of mine."
"Who?" Xia Mo took a sip of coffee.
"You've seen Su Yuheng's friend, the one with silver-grey hair and blue eyes."
"Oh... the one with good looks and a weak brain? I remember, I almost broke his hand off last time. Is he gay?"
"Pfft--" Gu Nianxi spat out a mouthful of juice, and then laughed, "You two are so funny, he said you were a tomboy, and you said he was gay."
"..." When Xia Mo heard Gu Nianxi's words, he had a dark look on his face, "I'm sorry, I seem to be offended. That sissy still called me a tomboy?"
Gu Nianxi quickly covered her mouth and couldn't help cursing herself, was she stupid for being pregnant? She didn't even want to blurt it out.
"No, no, that's not what I meant."
Xia Mo leaned back on the chair, folded his hands on his chest, and looked at Gu Nianxi with a frown.
"What else do you want to eat? I'll buy it." Gu Nianxi felt guilty and wanted to run away, but she stared at him, as if thinking about something.
"Give me."
Xia Mo hooked his fingers at Gu Nianxi.
"What for you?"
"Sissy's call. I just have nothing to do and am teasing him."
"Ah?" Gu Nianxi saw that she was in trouble and quickly tried to persuade him, "You're not going to beat him up, are you? Don't be impulsive. Don't look at his careless look. There are many thugs around him.
Too much."
"You're overthinking it. I just wanted to play a trick on him and take it as revenge."
"..."
Due to Xia Mo's persistence, Gu Nianxi gave her Jin Huaiqian's phone number with a murmur in her heart, and Xia Mo added his chat account using a small account in front of her.
"Forget it, he won't add strangers because -"
"Okay." Xia Mo had a naughty smile on his face and showed Gu Nianxi the message that the other party had accepted the friend's invitation.
"..."
Jin Huaiqian was so disrespectful that he immediately accepted a friend's invitation when he saw the beautiful girl's profile picture. Wasn't he sleeping all day long?
"It turns out he is a Neptune. A Neptune will never miss a fish." At the end of Xia, he looked through Jin Huaiqian's Moments. His Moments were quite boring. There were no photos, and they were all filled with sour copywriting.
"What do you want to do?" Gu Nianxi asked weakly, feeling guilty for Jin Huaiqian and offending Xia Mo, and he suffered a lot.
"It's just online dating, the kind that will kill you in the light of day."
Gu Nianxi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, she could only pray for Jin Huaiqian in her heart.
I'm sorry, I wish you a better life, Mr. Qian.
…………
One day, a person with a special status asked Gu Nianxi to meet. Gu Nianxi did not tell Su Yuheng and went to the appointment alone.
Before opening the door of the private room at Fuhua Restaurant, Gu Nianxi took ten deep breaths. She touched her belly and encouraged herself secretly.
"Gu Nianxi, don't be afraid."
Entering the private room, the man sitting at the tea table looked up at her. His cold eyes reminded Gu Nianxi of another person.
Su Yi sat there, bringing the cup in his hand to his mouth, and took a sip of tea. Ali beside him sat silently beside him, casting complicated eyes at Gu Nianxi.
"Uncle Su."
Gu Nianxi stood there awkwardly. What was this situation? Is it a meeting with an elder or an interrogation?
"Nian Nian is here, sit down." Su's father smiled half-heartedly and asked Gu Nianxi to sit down opposite him.
Gu Nianxi walked over and sat across from him calmly. Ali immediately poured her a cup of tea.
After that, the three of them were silent. Su Yi seemed to be concentrating on drinking tea, but his micro-expression could not escape Gu Nianxi, who studied psychology. He must be thinking about how to talk to her.
After a while, Su Yi put the teacup on the tea table, his eyes fell on Gu Nianxi, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
Gu Nianxi stared at him and saw the shadow of Su Yuheng on his face. Su's father was handsome and famously handsome when he was young. Although he was now in his early fifties, there was no trace of time on his face.
He looks much younger than men of the same age, and his visual age is around forty.
Thinking about Su Yuheng's mother who eloped with him despite her family's objections, she must have been attracted by his suave and charming nature.
"You look like Chen Wanyu when she was young."
Father Su's words gave Gu Nianxi a blow in the head.
Did he want to express that Su Yuheng liked her because she looked like his mother?
"A Heng didn't say that." Gu Nianxi said softly, showing a generous and decent manner.
"I heard that you got married in Las Vegas, do your parents know?" Su's father asked.
Gu Nianxi's heart tightened. Su's father's few words left her speechless. She nervously wrung her fingers under the table and shook her head.
"Marriage matters should be discussed with your parents."
Gu Nianxi was on pins and needles after hearing Su's father's words. She never expected that when she met her father-in-law for the first time after marriage, she would be in such a situation where he would be accused of being accused. She was like a child who had done something wrong, and she was worried.
"You young people are free to love, and we as elders should not interfere. But this kid A Heng is a little unreliable and has been rebellious since he was a child. So I am afraid that he will do something stupid again this time, and he will be hurt in the end.
It's you, have you figured it out before marrying him?"
"Please rest assured that A Heng does things in a measured way. I also wanted to understand before marrying him. You are worried about our affairs. A Heng should also want to tell you about this matter. Maybe he is worried that he will be offended by you."
If you object, it will cause unpleasantness. Uncle, we love each other, so getting married is a mutual pleasure."
Gu Nianxi's tone and expression were extremely firm. She sat with her back straight, as if she was defending Su Yuheng and their relationship in the most honorable way.
After Su Yi heard what she said, he raised his eyebrows and looked at her differently. He didn't expect that Gu Nianxi's words were quite logical despite her age.
"It's just that you've been wronged by being so hasty, and it's hard for your parents to explain it to you."
A faint smile appeared on Gu Nianxi's face, "Being together is the most important thing, everything else... is not important."
"As for your parents, I'll take the time to go and talk to them in person. It's not respectable for you two kids to go there. As a father, it's only natural for me to plead for my useless son."
"uncle……"
Gu Nianxi didn't expect that Su's father would think of doing this for them, and she was touched in her heart, but she was too embarrassed to embarrass him and quickly declined.
"As for my parents, let's go and tell them. You are usually so busy, so you don't have to worry about us. A Heng and I are planning to return to China after I graduate."
Su Yi nodded, "Okay then, let that brat clean up the mess by himself."
Gu Nianxi finally breathed a sigh of relief. She knew that Su Yuheng definitely didn't want Su's father to interfere with their affairs.
