Chapter 1191 - You are the first to know that I am pregnant!
Chapter 1191: You are the first to know that I am pregnant!
“…Wait! Why so suddenly? I remember you telling me that…”
She turned to look at her best friend quizzically. She clearly remembered her friend saying that she and Gu Zhengrong were a DINK couple, so even if they got married, they did not intend to have children, too. Now…
“Yes, I did tell you back then that we don’t intend to have kids, but… since this child is already here, I can’t bear to abort it, too.”
In contrast to her usual self, Tang Xiaoyu appeared gentle and loving as she caressed her stomach. Her stomach was still flat, yet her actions made it appear as if she were pregnant for eight months already and was about to give birth!
“That’s true. There’s no mother who is willing to give up her child! Congratulations! You are a mother now.”
She nodded in understanding.
Back then, even when she found out that Ji Ziming and… Qiao Jingyun had conceived a child together and that he had been lying to her all the time, she still chose not to abort her child and even insisted on giving birth to her children with her life at stake.
No, it should be three precious children…
At this point, her mood dropped a little.
Pei Ge, don’t think about that anymore…
“Thank you!”
Tang Xiaoyu, whose entire attention was on her stomach, did not notice her abnormality as she thanked her with a smile.
“You’re already pregnant, so your wedding with Zhengrong should be nearing too, right?”
She returned to herself at her friend’s grateful words. After keeping her emotions in check, she smiled at her and asked that curiously.
After all, the two had been in a relationship for many years.
Their relationship remained great even after so many years, yet they still refused to get married. This was something she had been very puzzled about.
This time, since her best friend was already pregnant, the two should be getting married soon, should they not?
The other did not give her a definite answer, though. In fact, she sounded uncertain.
“Wedding…”
“What’s wrong?”
“I haven’t told him about my pregnancy.”
Pei Ge immediately frowned at her.
“Why? How can you not let him know that you are pregnant when it is a serious matter?”
“Listen to—” Before the other could explain herself, the girl sitting next to her mother quickly rushed to answer.
“Mommy, I know; I know!”
The little one hugged her arm tightly. “Uncle Gu has been very busy these days and hasn’t gone home! That’s why auntie hasn’t gotten a chance to tell him that she’s pregnant!”
The little girl looked at her with an expression that said, ‘Please praise me! Please kiss me!’
She amusedly poked her precious daughter’s head before commenting understandingly.
“Ah, so that’s why.”
She turned to look at her best friend.
The moment she looked at her, she saw her friend nod and smile at her. “Yes. That’s why, other than these two precious gems, you are the first to know of my pregnancy.”
Hearing that, she rolled her eyes at her friend.
“…You should quickly tell him about it, then. It hasn’t been easy for you both all these years; it’s just nice since you two are going to have a baby now, so quickly get married. Your parents have been waiting for you two to settle down for years!”
Tang Xiaoyu lowered her head to look at her flat stomach and gave a blissful smile.
We finally did it and even… conceived a child. This time, his heart should be mine, shouldn’t it…
“Yes, I was thinking that, too.”
While they chatted, the car reached the hotel the two men had booked.
“Miss Tang, we are here.”
After the car came to a slow stop, Pei Ge helped her two children down from it.
Immediately after they alighted and she held the children on either side of her, she spotted the two tall men standing by the hotel entrance.
Their straight backs, suave looks, and long legs made them appear more long-legged oppa than those idols in Korean dramas!
Standing straight by the door, they attracted the attention of numerous women walking by.
The two, who were standing there to wait for the woman, immediately spotted her, too.
“Ge Ge!”
“Ge Ge!”
A bright smile lit their faces as their voice was filled with elation.
“Pfft! Why are both of you standing there? You guys look like gatekeepers!”
She blinked her eyes in amusement at the two men she had not seen in a long time.
One was the CEO of a listed company worth hundreds of millions, while the other was a big boss whom no one could offend for he controlled the lives of many, yet the image of these two always seemed out of place.
That was because in her impression, the two were too kind and humble. They were not big shots who gave others a lot of pressure.
“Of course, it’s to wait for you.”
The two spoke at the same time.
For some reason, she found it a little strange.
“Huh?”
I can understand Egger waiting for me a little, but why is Zhengrong’s attitude toward me so similar to the other? I’ve only been away for a bit…
That’s too strange. Isn’t he my best friend’s boyfriend?
“Ha ha! He’s talking about me. He must be fighting with Egger again. You know how these two are! Even now, I still haven’t seen business partners who feel like enemies apart from these two!”
Tang Xiaoyu quickly diffused the situation upon seeing the atmosphere turning queer.
“That’s right! Don’t be so full of yourself. This guy is saying that to his girlfriend!”
Egger cocked an eyebrow, yet his cold eyes were actually slanted toward the other man as he smiled ambiguously.
“…Yes. I was speaking to Xiaoyu.”
