Chapter 301: Chapter 301 She Is Pregnant

It must be Gu Wei who’s back. She was feeling sleepy and just lay there without moving.

However, his hand reached to her waist and slid under the hem of her clothes.

“Gu Wei, stop fooling around. I’m really sleepy.”

Gu Wei wouldn’t let her be, “Sleep later.”

“You’re already discharged from the military, there’s a whole month of downtime,” she yawned and turned over again: “Why the rush at this very moment?”

He rolled her back toward him, “Because the holiday is too long, so let’s start with an appetizer.”

Before long, her sleepiness was gone, but all the passion in her body was stirred up.

In a small space, an intense battle unfolded, with cries and roars.

…

She slept until it was dark outside.

After waking up, both of them lay on the couch without moving.

Su Meixi leaned on his broad shoulders and asked, “Has your mom left already?”

“She’s on the plane tonight; she should be on it by now.”

“That’s good then.”

“She asked about your relationship with Mr. Xi; I told her the truth that you don’t want to acknowledge your kin for now, and she praised you for having integrity.”

Su Meixi couldn’t help but smile a little.

“But she also said, don’t be too stubborn, she can tell that Mr. Xi really cares about you.”

“Ah!” Su Meixi sighed.

She actually understood that if she acknowledged her biological parents, her life would be easier.

Gu Wei’s life would be easier too.

What Qiu Yurou cared about was nothing more than her son’s future; she had always wanted to find a daughter-in-law who could help her son’s career. She never expected that Su Meixi, who seemed poor and struggling, could also become such a person.

It’s just that life is unpredictable.

Gu Wei then kissed her forehead, “Hungry? What do you want to eat? Shall I make something for you?”

“Let’s eat out, and then go for a walk together after?”

“Sure.”

Su Meixi added, “You’ve got a month of downtime, any plans? Do you want to go back to Feng City?”

Gu Wei, while putting on his clothes, said, “Not going back. I just visited during the New Year, it’s only been a month, plus mom’s already seen us. During this time, I’ll go check on the new house.”

“That works. You’re discharged now; we should hurry up and move as well.”

…

The sisters in the neighborhood knew about Gu Wei’s discharge too.

That day, after Gu Wei dropped Su Meixi off at work, he planned to go grocery shopping.

Sister Hong, Mdm. Li, and Mrs. Fen saw him and started talking:

“Captain Gu is really a good man, I see him cooking and grocery shopping these days.”

Mrs. Fen said, “He’s not Captain Gu anymore, he’s transitioned to civilian life.”

“Oh? To which unit?”

“I heard it’s the S Commission, probably in charge of security, but there’s still some time before he takes office.”

“The young man, he really has a bright future ahead of him.”

Sister Hong tentatively called out to Gu Wei, “Gu Wei, going to buy groceries?”

Gu Wei turned around, saw the sisters, and politely said, “Yes, are the sisters going to buy groceries too?”

“Right, do you want to come with us?” Mdm. Li said.

Unexpectedly, Gu Wei agreed without hesitation: “Sure, I was just worrying about not having a companion. I’m not very knowledgeable about which vendor sells the freshest meat or where the fruits are cheapest, it’s perfect to have a sister show me around.”

“Oh, you’re with the right person then, we’re very familiar with this area, come on, let’s go together.”

Gu Wei naturally blended in with the sisters.

At the market, the sisters eagerly led him around: “Gu Wei, look at Ah Wang Fruit Store over there, their fruits are particularly fresh and cheap. If you want some good fruits, you can also ask them to reserve some for you.”

“Gu Wei, Chen Er’s Fish Stall is also good, if you want to buy fish, go to him. He’s very skilled at cleaning fish, leaving the belly spotless for you, ready to cook when you’re home.”

“…”

On Gu Wei’s first day to the market, only three sisters went with him.

On the second day, seven or eight sisters joined him.

By the third day, there were more than twenty sisters, a whole crowd of them. To the unaware, it would seem like some kind of organization.

Some old ladies shook their heads at this sight: “This young man, at such a young age, instead of doing something better, he’s hanging out at the market with a bunch of middle-aged and elderly women, he’s totally a gigolo.”

When the sisters heard this, they immediately retorted.

What gigolo? Where is his face white? Are your eyes bad? Clearly, his face is very dark, okay?

Are you jealous that we have a handsome guy with us? If you’re capable, find one for yourself.

Their retort kept those old ladies away from the market for a long time.

…

Xi Wanlin’s appetite has been very poor recently, feeling nauseous and wanting to vomit all the time, and she lacks the energy for work, completely unable to focus on her job.

She suspects that she’s pregnant.

One day after work, she went to the pharmacy and bought several pregnancy tests, and took the tests as soon as she got home.

All five pregnancy tests showed two lines.

Her hands trembled, and a chill surged from the soles of her feet to her head.

Is it Li Hengze’s or Lu Lei’s?

Although she was more frequently intimate with Lu Lei, she was always cautious. If they didn’t use protection, she would definitely take the pill the next day. When prepared, she would make sure he wore protection.

So it should be Li Hengze’s.

But she wasn’t completely sure.

Ever since the wedding, she had blocked Lu Lei. Once, when she saw Lu Lei waiting for her in his car after work, she simply ignored him.

She had made up her mind to live her life with Li Hengze, even though she didn’t love him.

But emotions can be cultivated later on, and perhaps she might slowly fall in love, right?

Now looking at these pregnancy tests, she was caught off guard.

Because she couldn’t be certain whose it was, she didn’t know whether to tell Li Hengze or not?

In a hurry, she threw all the pregnancy tests into the trash, then lay down on the bed to think.

Before she knew it, she fell asleep.

When she woke up, she could feel the breath of someone beside her. She turned around and saw Li Hengze, watching her with a hand propped up, his expression full of doting.

“When did you come back? What time is it?” Xi Wanlin asked.

Li Hengze said, “It’s 11 o’clock, you haven’t eaten yet, right? Do you want me to order some takeout for you? Or I can cook something.”

“Can’t eat.” Xi Wanlin felt nauseous the moment she woke up.

“How can you not eat anything? At least eat a little.” Li Hengze coaxed her like a child.

Then he said gleefully, “Even if you don’t eat, the child in your belly needs to eat, right?”
