Qiao Xinwan raised her head, allowing herself to look at him bravely, with a stubborn and unrestrained expression: "Yes. I'm pregnant. Is there a problem?"
"Qiao Xinwan." Those three words almost came out from between his teeth, and Gu Xuewu's face was extremely gloomy.
The box of opened contraceptive pills that Qiao Xinwan threw in front of her a few months ago flashed through her mind. The first intuition is that Qiao Xinwan has played tricks on herself again. Click on it.
"You are so brave."
How dare you lie to him? That possibility made Gu Xuewu's face very gloomy, which was terrifyingly ugly.
"Gu Xuewu." Qiao Xinwan's hand was painfully gripped by Gu Xuewu, just like every time in the past. He looked at himself, always like this, as if he saw a bedbug.
Pity. Qiao Xinwan suddenly smiled. A flash of light flashed across the gorgeous face, and the upturned face was full of stubbornness, staring at Gu Xuewu's face, the neat white teeth looked very white under the light of the corridor, and the smile was charming.
"Why are you angry? This child is not yours."
Gu Xuewu narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at Qiao Xinwan's face, there was a hint of doubt in his deep eyes. His eyes swept over Qiao Xinwan's stomach: "It's not mine?"
Who is she trying to fool? Did she think she was so easy to deceive
"Of course. I don't think you're that strong. You hit it once."
Gu Xuewu's eyes narrowed, and a storm began to gather in them. Qiao Xinwan's hand hurt even more, she felt ruthless, and pulled it out forcefully, looking at him with a smug expression: "I'm only six months pregnant."
Raising her voice by one degree, she opened the corners of her mouth to make herself look happy: "This is Shen Cheng's child."
Gu Xuewu looked at Qiao Xinwan and stood there motionless. His gaze swept across Qiao Xinwan's abdomen, which was about the same degree of swelling as Zuo Panqing. Zuo Panqing seems to be six months pregnant.
The anger on his face subsided a little, but seeing the complacency on Qiao Xinwan's face, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes.
She said how much she loved him, but as soon as she got divorced, she jumped on Shen Cheng's bed. Now that the children are grown up, Shen Cheng has never heard of getting married.
With a cold snort from his nasal cavity, without looking at her, he walked past her to the bathroom inside.
It's not that Qiao Xinwan didn't feel Gu Xuewu's gaze, she knew in her heart what he thought of her, but she didn't want to pester her anymore.
Preconceptions are the scariest thing in this world. And she was thankful that he believed her words, which made her heave a sigh of relief.
After his figure disappeared around the corner, he felt that all the strength in his body was exhausted, and he couldn't even move while standing there. The pain from Gu Xuewu's palm still seemed to remain on his arm.
The cruelty that just flashed in his eyes made her go limp, and she almost couldn't stand up. A pair of big hands grabbed her waist in time.
She froze for a moment, then turned around and saw Qiao Jie coming at some time, standing behind her.
"Sister. The waiter said that you have been in the bathroom for half a day."
"I'm fine." Qiao Xinwan shook her head: "Let's go."
"All right?" It doesn't seem to be all right with this look: "You, drink more soup. When I get home, I think I'll ask Mrs. Chen to mend it for you."
"I'm fine." Qiao Xinwan followed him and left, Qiao Jie rolled his eyes: "Well, if I don't take good care of you, brother Cheng will be nervous again. Let's go."
Qiao Xinwan had no objection, and left with Qiao Jie. Gu Xuewu just came out around the corner behind him, and when he heard the conversation between the two, his brows that were originally frowning slightly relaxed. Go outside to the cafe.
Leaning on the periphery of the window, Qiao Xinwan looked at the exquisite pastries in front of her, and lost her appetite, unable to eat any. Picking up the milkshake and taking a sip, I felt some pantothenic acid.
The hand holding the cup was tightly clenched, and the fingertips were turning white. Heart beats fast.
"Sister?" Qiao Jie took a sip of coffee, looking at Qiao Xinwan, he always felt something was wrong: "What's wrong with you? Are you okay?"
Qiao Xinwan shook her head, trying her best to calm down her rapid heartbeat. Feeling the child in her stomach kick her at this moment, her face turned paler.
Did the child feel it too? Gu Xuewu's dislike for him
Gently covering her abdomen with her hand, feeling the fetal movement, she could almost see the baby kicking and punching in her stomach.
"Baby… "
A child, her child. A child who grows up without a father. Hands twisted together, why do you still feel bitter when you are clearly prepared
"Sister?" Qiao Jie looked at Qiao Xinwan, her appearance was really abnormal. Finding that Qiao Xinwan hadn't responded yet, he put down his coffee cup and was about to say something, but he saw Gu Xuewu coming out of the bathroom.
No wonder. With the answer in his heart, Qiao Jie couldn't help but rolled his eyes and flew over to Gu Xuewu. If it weren't for the good relationship between the two families, seeing him bullying her sister like this, she would really have the urge to punch him twice.
As soon as Gu Xuewu came out, he felt it. Qiao Jie's white eyes were ignored, and he calmly walked to Wang Xiu'e's position.
It's just that besides Wang Xiu'e, there are two other people in the position at this time. Gu Xuewu froze for a moment, his body stood there motionless.
Seeing him coming out, Wang Xiu'e looked a little embarrassed, but quickly stretched out her hand to signal Gu Xuewu to sit down: "Xuewu, what a coincidence. I said I was out shopping, and I met Mrs. Li, come over and say hello."
"Mrs. Li." Gu Xuewu sat down next to Wang Xiu'e, his voice was neither high nor low, and he couldn't tell what his mood was at the moment.
"Okay. You really are a good-looking talent." Seeing Gu Xuewu, Mrs. Li nodded with satisfaction, and looked at Wang Xiu'e: "Mrs. Gu is really lucky."
"Where, your daughter is also very capable."
Wang Xiu'e was very happy to be praised for her son, and watched Li Lan speak to Gu Xuewu enthusiastically.
"Xuewu, this is Mrs. Li's daughter, named Li Lan."
"Li Lan, this is my son, Gu Xuewu."
"Hello, Mayor Gu." The corners of Li Lan's lips were raised, with a slight smile. He stretched out his hand to Gu Xuewu: "I didn't expect that we are so destined."
Gu Xuewu looked at the smile on her face, stretched out his hand to shake her hand expressionlessly, felt her fingertips gliding across his palm, frowned almost imperceptibly, and withdrew his hand. , sat there and took a sip of coffee.
"What? Do you know each other?" Wang Xiu'e didn't notice the small movements between Li Lan and Gu Xuewu, and all her attention was attracted by Li Lan's words.
"I met Mayor Gu once." Li Lan explained with a smile: "I went to Beijing for a business trip a few days ago, and when I came back, I was on the same plane as Mayor Gu."
"Is that so? That's such a coincidence." Wang Xiu'e looked very happy: "You really are destined."
"Yes, it's so fateful." Li Lan agreed, but Wang Xiu'e clapped her hands and looked at Li Lan with some reproach.
"You too. What is your name, Mayor Gu? This is not in the officialdom. Besides, after entering Beidu, the mayor is no longer an official. Just call him by his name."
Li Lan didn't answer, looked at Gu Xuewu's indifferent face, bit her lower lip slightly, with a hesitant expression: "This, it's not very good."
"It's nothing bad, it's just a name." Although his son's condition is good, he was divorced after all. The more Wang Xiu'e watched Li Lan, the more satisfied she became.
He has a good family background and good looks. She will definitely be Gu Xuewu's good wife in the future.
Wang Xiu'e turned to look at Gu Xuewu, feeling really helpless to her son's cold face: "Xuewu, say something."
Gu Xuewu looked at Li Lan, without the smile on his face, and looked at him with some restraint, like a frightened deer.
"It's just a name, just call it a name."
"Thank you for learning martial arts." Li Lan was kind, with a hint of shyness and embarrassment on his face. Looking at this scene, Wang Xiu'e was very happy, and winked at Mrs. Li.
Mrs. Li clapped her hands suddenly: "Ah. I remembered, I just came up and saw that Zhou's jewelry has a new style. Mrs. Gu, come with me to see?".
"Okay." Wang Xiu'e stood up, "Speaking of which, my nephew and daughter-in-law work at Zhou's Jewelry."
"Really? That's really capable. Let's go and have a look." Mrs. Li had already stood up and walked out. Li Lan wanted to stand up, but Mrs. Li waved her hand.
"Xiaolan, you can accompany Gu Xuewu, we old ladies go shopping, you young people will find it boring."
"Yes, Xuewu." Wang Xiu'e also followed suit: "Just now I asked you to go shopping with me, it was like asking for your life. Now don't accompany me, sit with Li Lan, we will come over later."
"Let's go."
"Let's go." Wang Xiu'e was afraid that her son would repent and be unhappy, so she dragged Mrs. Li and walked out, not even seeing Qiao Xinwan and her brother who were sitting not far away.
On the contrary, Qiao Jie saw Wang Xiu'e, frowned, and turned to look behind him. From this angle, he could only see Gu Xuewu's profile and the woman sitting opposite him.
Tsk tsk, Qiao Jie immediately understood what was going on. Turning around and looking at Qiao Xinwan's dazed expression, she felt a little angry. He stretched out his hand and waved it in front of her.
"sister."
"Ah." Qiao Xinwan recovered from her contemplation, and saw Qiao Jie's face enlarged in front of her. She was a little startled and stepped back, patting her chest.
"Joe, what are you doing?"
"What am I doing?" Qiao Jie couldn't see Qiao Xinwan's dead look: "What are you doing, right? I've been sitting across from you for a long time, and you haven't seen it?"
"I, of course I saw it." Qiao Xinwan took a sip of the milkshake uncomfortably, and saw Gu Xuewu who was sitting on the other side of the coffee shop.
And the woman across from him. That face really made Qiao Xinwan stunned.
As soon as the hand holding the cup was released, the cup was about to fall on the table. Qiao Jie caught it quickly with sharp eyes and hands, with a bit of dissatisfaction on his young face.
"Sister, can you make a difference?" Putting down the glass, she frowned at the white liquid in Qiao Xinwan's hand.
Are all the men in the world dead? Qiao Xinwan turned a blind eye to Shen Cheng's infatuation. There is only one Gu Xuewu in his eyes, so it's fine if he likes her, but the problem is that he doesn't like her at all, so why bother
