Chapter 148: Choosing a Marriage
When Wen Zhuo returned home, the girl in the white sweater came to greet him, "Brother, is Brother Shi Yan really back?"
Wen Zhuo nodded absentmindedly: "Yeah."
Wen Suqian smiled and said, "Brother, I saw mom and the second wife of the Fu family having dinner together yesterday. Is your wedding with Fu Qin approaching?"
Wen Zhuo frowned, "Fu Qin will not agree to the marriage."
"That's not necessarily true." Wen Sudan smiled and said, "I heard that Fu Qin broke up with her boyfriend this time and was deeply hurt, so she agreed to the marriage."
Wen Zhuo frowned and returned to the quiet study.
In the study room with a mature office style, there is a small purple rabbit pendant.
Wen Zhuo reached out and touched the purple rabbit pendant, smiling at himself.
Wen Su pushed open the door of the study and saw the purple rabbit in Wen Zhuo's hand and said, "Brother, how old are you? Why are you still playing with the Stella Lou rabbit? Isn't that childish?"
Wen Zhuo put the bunny bag pendant aside and asked, "What do you want?"
Wen Suqian smiled and asked, "I want to ask if you saw Sister Xiaoxi just now? Is she very beautiful?"
"quite pretty."
……
It was not until ten o'clock in the evening that Yuan Xi and Huo Shiyan finished tidying up the bedroom.
After washing up, Yuan Xi lay on the bed and suddenly thought of the time when Grandpa Liang was in the hospital.
At that time, there was a national Internet game forum in City A, and Yuan Xi accompanied Gu Hanchen to participate.
After the cocktail party ended in the evening, Yuan Xi went to the hospital to see Grandpa Liang. The hospital chosen for Grandpa Liang was the best public cardiovascular hospital in City A, where it was difficult to find a parking space at night.
After circling around for several times, Yuan Xi finally found a car with its lights on. She thought the car was about to leave, so she drove over and waited.
Seeing that the car had not moved, Yuan Xi planned to go ask about it. When he went over, he saw a man sleeping in the car. At that time, Yuan Xi just thought that he was catching up on his sleep in the car. After all, it was normal for people who came to the hospital to sleep in the car...
But it wasn't until a car from the opposite direction kept honking and Yuan Xi didn't see the man in the car wake up that she realized something was wrong.
If you were asleep, the horn of the car behind you should have woken you up.
Yuan Xi suspected that the man in the car might have been poisoned by carbon monoxide while sleeping in the garage with the air conditioner on, so she called the hospital security guard.
The security guard called the police, but Yuan Xi smashed the car window and sent the man inside to emergency treatment.
Later, Yuan Xi saw a parking space, parked her car and was about to go visit her grandfather, but the security guard insisted that she wait for the unconscious man to wake up.
Because the man's car was a Cullinan, the cost of repairing the broken glass alone would be equivalent to a security guard's annual salary.
Having worked in the hospital for a long time, the security guard has seen many stories about the farmer and the snake and Mr. Dongguo and the wolf, so he did not dare to let Yuan Xi leave.
Yuan Xi decided to be a good person and went to the emergency room, waiting for the man to wake up.
After the man woke up, he learned that he was poisoned by carbon monoxide, which was why Yuan Xi smashed his car window, but he naturally didn't care.
She had already had a vague impression of the man's appearance after only meeting him once, but she did have some impression of his surname, because the surname Wen was special and she had never seen anyone with this surname before.
When I saw Wen Zhuo today, I felt that he looked familiar. Since we both have the last name Wen, I now think that it must be him.
Yuan Xi looked at Huo Shiyan and said, "I remember when I met Wen Zhuo. Three years ago, when my grandfather came to City A for surgery, I met Wen Zhuo who was suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning in the hospital."
Huo Shiyan asked: "Then you are still his savior?"
Yuan Xi chuckled, "I guess so."
"At that time, Gu Hanchen asked me to buy him a StellaLou pendant. I lost the StellaLou summer limited edition pendant while saving someone, and Gu Hanchen scolded me severely."
Huo Shiyan hugged Yuan Xi and said, "Next time I see Gu Hanchen, I will scold him too."
Yuan Xi smiled softly. She was going to give birth in less than two months, and she had always been restless at night. When she moved to a new place, her insomnia became quite severe.
The real hardship of pregnancy is still here.
I finally fell asleep, but my calves were cramping badly again. Not only had I gained more than 20 pounds, but my legs and feet were also swollen, making it difficult for me to fall asleep, and I felt like I was falling when I walked.
Seeing Yuan Xi's insomnia, Huo Shiyan asked, "Stop working first. The Chinese New Year is coming soon. Let's talk about it after the baby's birth holiday."
Yuan Xi also understood that her insomnia was so severe that she would not be able to continue working during the day without making up for her sleep.
Indeed, everything can only be decided after the Chinese New Year when the baby is born.
Thinking of this, perhaps because he was no longer anxious about work, Yuan Xi fell asleep quickly.
But at five or six o'clock, she woke up again. After waking up, she couldn't fall asleep again. She took advantage of the good air in the morning and thought of taking a walk in the community.
Seeing Huo Shiyan still sleeping, Yuan Xi did not wake him up. He had stayed up with her until quite late last night.
However, the noise of Yuan Xi getting out of bed still woke Huo Shiyan up. Huo Shiyan glanced at the time on his watch and asked, "Awake so early?"
"Well, I can't sleep." Yuan Xi said. "I want to go out for a walk and breathe some fresh air."
"Okay." Huo Shiyan got up.
In December, people in City A already need to wear down jackets. But Yuan Xi doesn't feel cold because she is pregnant, so she can wear a coat.
The green area of Yunsen Court is well landscaped, and the scenery on both sides of the walking trail is also very good. Even the shrubs planted in winter are lush and green.
Huo Shiyan walked slowly beside Yuan Xi. He said, "During the next pregnancy checkup, ask the doctor if you can have a cesarean section early. This way you can suffer for a few days less."
Yuan Xi chuckled and said, "If the pregnancy can be carried to full term, it would definitely be better. We have been suffering for so long, a few days won't make a difference, but..."
"Whether it's a boy or a girl, I won't have any more."
Huo Shiyan responded: "Yeah."
Yuan Xi could already feel the baby kicking her. She put her hand gently on her belly and could feel the baby's little feet in her belly.
After Yuan Xi discovered this, she took Huo Shiyan's hand and placed it on her bulging belly.
Yuan Xi saw an indescribable surprise on Huo Shiyan's usually calm face.
After the walk, the two returned home.
They were going to have a lunch gathering at the Huo family’s old house at noon today, so after breakfast they drove to the Huo family’s old house.
The old house is not far from Yunsen Court.
Yuan Xi arrived at the Huo's old house today and sat almost the entire time. Xiao Huo was also expressly forbidden by Grandma Huo to get close to Yuan Xi before the child was born.
When he was little, he dared to act like a spoiled child in front of Yuan Xi, but in the Huo family he seldom acted like a spoiled child and was very well behaved and obedient.
Before lunch, Fu Qin came to the Huo family's old house. When she saw Yuan Xi, she smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for only two months. Have you gained a lot of weight?"
Yuan Xi chuckled and said, "I have gained almost 25 kilograms."
Yuan Xi doesn't have any body anxiety. All she prays for now is that her child will be healthy. If she really wants to lose weight, it will not be too late to do so after the child is born.
Fu Qin looked at Huo Shiyan who was coming over and said, "By the way, I'm getting engaged to Wen Zhuo!"
Yuan Xi was drinking water. When she heard Fu Qin say this, she turned her head and looked at Fu Qin: "You broke up with your boyfriend?"
Fu Qin: "Don't say that. I was 27 years old and was deceived by an 18-year-old boy. I always thought he was at least a junior in college, about five years younger than me.
Who knew that he would only take the college entrance examination this year? He is nine years younger than me. When I was with him, he hadn't even taken the college entrance examination yet. I feel guilty eating such tender grass...
I don't trust any man now, so I might as well find someone to marry. The Fu family is in a serious internal strife right now, and I might as well get into trouble if I'm not careful. I might as well make a marriage contract as soon as possible."
