Although Qin Yun didn’t really want Anran to go back, as a mother, her heart still ached when she saw her son working until midnight every day and still had to drive for more than an hour to the military compound.

In addition, she saw that although Anran was pregnant, her pregnancy reaction wasn’t serious. She only felt a little nauseous when she brushed her teeth in the morning, and other times, she didn’t vomit that badly. As such, she was relieved to let her go. However, before Anran left, she didn’t forget to remind her of the things she had to pay attention to. She also asked su yijiao to print out some information for her to take home and ask her to pay attention to her nutrition intake according to the information.

After returning from the military compound, Anran let out a satisfied sigh as soon as she entered the door. Su Yicheng closed the door behind her, and Anran turned around to hug him.

Su Yicheng was a little stunned by her sudden movement, but he quickly reacted and chuckled as he hugged her and asked, ” “What’s wrong?” He gently stroked her hair, which seemed to have grown longer than before. After Anran stopped working, he had requested that her hair be let down, and he liked it when her long hair fell over her shoulders.

Anran shook her head, leaned on his chest, and murmured, ” I’m home. &Quot; In fact, the courtyard was quite nice. Other than Qin Yun’s overly nervous refusal to let him in, the air and environment in the courtyard were very good. It was not as noisy as the city and there was no serious environmental pollution. However, after all, living together with everyone, he more or less had less freedom. Just like now, she had to take care of a lot of things when she was hugging him, for fear that she would make a fool of herself if others saw her. However, it was different when they were home. This was their home, and no matter how they hugged and kissed, no one would laugh at them.

As she thought about it, she raised her head from his arms and looked at him with a smile, saying, ” “I want to kiss you.”

Su Yicheng pondered for a moment, then looked behind her and asked with a smile, ” “Are you sure?”

Anran didn’t notice the strange look in his eyes. She pouted and said with a slightly red face, ” “If you don’t want it, then forget it.” She turned around and wanted to leave, but su Yicheng grabbed her hand the moment she turned her head. Then, before she could react, su Yicheng’s kiss pressed down on her.

“Bang!” Suddenly, there was the sound of something being knocked over behind him.

Anran suddenly came back to her senses and withdrew from su Yicheng’s arms. She turned her head and saw aunt Zhang standing awkwardly at the bar counter behind her. She quickly reacted and said, ” “I didn’t see anything!” As she spoke, she quickly closed her eyes and turned her back to them.

An ran’s entire body turned red. Not only her face, but even her neck began to flush red.

Su Yicheng held back his laughter. When he first came in, he knew that Mrs. Zhang was here because she was dragging her shoes at the door. In addition, today was Saturday, which was a regular day for Mrs. Zhang to come and clean, so when Anran suddenly said she wanted to kiss him, he asked her that question. At that time, he had already seen Mrs. Zhang behind him. Even though he didn’t like to do it in front of others, he didn’t want to miss out on her initiative, so he cupped her face and pressed his lips down.

Anran simply wanted to dig a hole and bury herself in it. She patted su Yicheng in embarrassment, turned around, and ran toward the master bedroom.

Watching Anran run into the bedroom, su Yicheng shook his head and laughed. He then turned to aunt Zhang and said, ” “Mrs. Zhang, you should go back first. Otherwise, someone might not even take a step out of their room for the whole day.”

Mrs. Zhang also smiled and reached out to untie her apron. In fact, they were almost done cleaning. Suddenly, she thought of something and said, ” “Why don’t I make dinner for Sir and Madam first before going back?”

&Quot; no need. Anran said she wanted to eat my cooking today. I’ll make it for her. &Quot; Su Yicheng said gently.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zhang didn’t say anything more. She took off her apron and put it in the kitchen, saying,”Sir is so good to Madam.”

Su Yicheng laughed, raised his hand to look at his watch, took off his suit jacket, and put it on the sofa as he said, ” “If I’m not good to my own wife, who should I be good to?” He walked towards the kitchen.

Because she had been in the military compound for the past week, an ran had missed father Lin’s operation. Fortunately, the operation was very successful, and father Lin was now just recuperating. As for whether the cancer cells would spread again, he would have to return to the hospital for a check-up every once in a while after the operation.

The day after they returned from the military compound, su Yicheng and Anran went to the hospital to see father Lin, who had just finished his operation. Father Lin looked very good, and when they came over this time, mother Lin was also smiling. She no longer looked as worried as before.

Su Yicheng only stayed in the hospital for a short while to ask about father Lin’s current situation. Before they could talk more, his cell phone rang. It was a call from Secretary Zheng. Anran didn’t know what he said on the phone, but he told her that he was going back to his office.

An ran chatted with father Lin and mother Lin for a while. Mother Lin knew that she was pregnant and also told her to be careful, but an ran could see the loneliness on mother Lin’s face. Anran knew that she was probably thinking about Lin Li’s child, who had no chance of being born.

After staying in the ward for a while, mother Lin asked Lin Li to take a walk in the garden of the hospital with Anran.

There seemed to be something wrong with Lin Li today. She was so silent that it made people suspicious. The two of them sat down on the walkway in the garden.

Without waiting for Anran to speak, Lin Li confessed, ” I saw Chengxiang yesterday. &Quot;

An ran was stunned, but she didn’t know what to say. She just looked at her.

Lin Li smiled faintly, but her smile was a little bitter. &Quot; he didn’t see me. There’s a woman behind him. &Quot;

&Quot; Lin Li … &Quot; Anran looked at her with worry.

Lin Li turned her head to look at her and shook her head lightly. &Quot; I’m fine. I just didn’t want to lie to you. I can’t say that I didn’t feel anything when I saw it. It’s still quite uncomfortable. &Quot;

An ran didn’t say anything and just reached out to hold her hand.

Lin Li also held her hand back, and her tears couldn’t help but flow down. She told herself that the man was already in the past and that she shouldn’t be sad for that person anymore. But perhaps it was because there wasn’t enough time, when she thought of that scene again, her heart would always feel terrible.

Anran knew that whatever she said now would be useless, but seeing her like this, she also felt bad for her. She stepped forward and hugged her, and the two of them cried for a long time.

When they let go of each other again, they looked at their red and swollen eyes from crying and couldn’t help but laugh.

Lin Li wiped the corners of her eyes and said, ” “I’m going to look for a job tomorrow. Wish me good luck.”

Anran nodded heavily, looked at her, and said, ” “We’ll succeed in one go tomorrow!”

Lin Li rolled her eyes at Anran and said, ” “Can you wish me something more reliable?” Did she think that finding a job was just a game?

“Mrs. Su,” The two of them were chatting and laughing when a pleasant female voice suddenly came from behind them, interrupting their conversation.

Anran turned around and saw Tong Xiaojie standing a few steps behind them. She looked at her with a faint smile on her face.

“Why is she here?” Lin Li murmured in a low voice and turned to look at Anran.

Anran was slightly stunned, but she quickly reacted. She only looked at her and nodded slightly. &Quot; miss Tong. &Quot;

Tong Xiaojie walked over to them and then stood in front of Anran. The corners of her mouth were still half-curved as she said softly, ” “Actually, I prefer to be called Mrs. Mo.” It was as if she was trying to defend her sovereignty and territory. She liked it when others labeled her as mo Fei, as if it would prove that mo Fei really belonged to her.

Anran was dazed for a moment, then nodded and said, ” &Quot; indeed, you should call me Mrs. Mo. I’m being presumptuous. Please don’t mind me, Mrs. Mo. &Quot;

“I don’t mind, just remember it in the future.” Gu Xiao Xiao’s words seemed to have a hidden meaning. She looked at her with a look that no one could understand.

Anran nodded and smiled without saying anything. In the past, he still cared about Tong Xiaojie, but now, he didn’t care about her at all. Because he had truly let go of mo Fei, he didn’t care about Tong Xiaojie anymore.

After being persistent for so many years, she only realized recently that some things were simply burdens in her heart. Even if mo Fei hadn’t left back then, even if mo Fei had come back to look for her a few years ago, she would never have accepted him again because she simply couldn’t accept betrayal. The reason why she was so persistent for so many years was perhaps because she felt aggrieved for herself back then. Even the breakup was so unclear, but she was actually persistent because she wanted an explanation.

There were some people and some things that were worth her persistence. When Chen Cheng told her that the person who stole the design was mo Fei, she suddenly felt that her previous persistence and inability to let go was ridiculous. It was meaningless to do so for a man like this.

“Mrs. Su, aren’t you going to ask me what I’m doing in the hospital?” Tong Xiaojie said as she looked at her. She seemed to be showing off.

Anran smiled and shook her head. &Quot; what does Mrs. Mo’s visit to the hospital have to do with me? ” she asked.

Tong Xiaojie was stunned for a moment, then she chuckled and said, ” “It’s true that it’s nothing, but I really hope that Mrs. Su will personally give me her blessings.”

&Quot; what? ” Anran raised her eyebrows and asked.

Tong Xiaojie looked at her and said, ” “I’m pregnant. Mrs. Su, you’ll wish me and Mo Fei well, right?” His eyes were staring straight at her, as if he wanted to see through her.

Upon hearing this, Lin Li subconsciously turned her head to look at Anran, but she saw that Anran’s calm face didn’t change at all.

Looking into her eyes, an ran smiled faintly and said as she wished, ” “Congratulations to you and Mo Fei. I wish you all the best.” From the corner of his eye, he saw the 10-centimeter high heels she was wearing. He frowned slightly and said, ” “It’s better not to wear high heels when you’re pregnant. It’s too dangerous to wear high heels. Besides, it’s not good for blood circulation.”

Her calmness was beyond Tong Xiaojie’s expectations. She thought that she still couldn’t let go of mo Fei, but her calmness made her feel that she was wrong. Or perhaps she had really let go of mo Fei?

After staring at her for a while, Tong Xiaojie finally came back to her senses. She laughed dryly and nodded, saying, ” “Thank you,” he said. After saying that, he looked at her for a while more before turning around and leaving.

Lin Li watched her leave, then turned to look at Anran again. After a while, she asked, ” “An Zi, you … Really don’t mind, really let it go?”

Anran looked at her, amused, and asked, ” “Do I look like I’ve taken it to heart or like I haven’t let go?” She was going to be a mother soon. If she still couldn’t let it go, she would really die.

Lin Li laughed and shook her head. &Quot; &Quot; your leader su is really something. He was able to take you all down in such a short period of time. It’s clear that he’s skilled. &Quot;

“Pfft.” Anran laughed out loud. However, it was undeniable that su Yicheng was indeed charming. He was a gentle and considerate man, and it was too difficult to refuse a man like him. It was too easy to fall in love with him without any effort. Their lives did not have any ups and downs like those dramatic events on TV. Their lives were plain and real, making people feel that happiness was within reach. Of course, this kind of plain and real life did not lack warmth and romance. Meeting su Yicheng was really the luckiest thing that had happened to her in her life!

He reached out and took Lin Li’s hand. He looked at her and said seriously, ” &Quot; you’ll meet him too. You’ll meet the man who truly loves you, Pampers you, and loves you. However, he’s still on his way. Don’t walk too fast. Slow down and wait for him to catch up. &Quot;

Lin Li looked at her and suppressed the tears that were about to surge up. She rolled her eyes in a bad mood and scolded her with a smile, ” “Anzi, Hello Sanba.”

Anran didn’t say anything and just smiled. Lin Li also smiled, and both of them laughed.

Su Yicheng looked at the information of the company that director Zhang had recommended for winning the bid in his hand. He looked at the name of the company’s legal person and was stunned for a long time.

Seeing that he didn’t move or speak for a long time, director Zhang, who was sitting in front of him, tentatively called out, ” “Deputy Mayor su?”

Only then did su Yicheng come back to his senses. He looked up at him and said, ” &Quot; yes, is this the winning company that everyone voted to win the bid for the reconstruction project in the old District in the north of the city? ”

Director Zhang nodded. ” Yes, that’s right. Everyone agreed that the Zhang family’s company is up to the task.”

He closed the folder and placed it back on the dark brown office desk. He said calmly, ” this company has just started to develop. Aren’t you afraid that it won’t be able to handle such a big project? ”

” Actually, we’ve investigated it before. This company has done a few successful cases in the U.S. Before, but for some reason, they moved back to China half a year ago. I’ve checked their previous projects in the U.S. And the response was very good, so we absolutely believe that they can do a good job in the old District reconstruction project. ”

Su Yicheng didn’t say anything, but he picked up the folder on the table again and opened it. He looked at the two words ” Xuanji Zhou han ” written on the legal person of the bidding company, and he couldn’t come back to his senses for a while.

Seeing that he had not made a decision, director Zhang asked tentatively, ” “Deputy Mayor su, what do you think is wrong?”

After a long time, su Yicheng shook his head and said indifferently, ” if no one has any objections, I’ll do as everyone says. &Quot;

“Alright, I’ll make the arrangements.” Director Zhang nodded in agreement, then got up and left su Yicheng’s office.

Su Yicheng pinched his sore eyebrows and leaned back in the Leather Swivel Chair. At this moment, the phone on the table rang. It was a call from ye Ziwen. She picked up the phone and answered tiredly, ” “Hello,” he said.

“Ah Luo, let’s have a drink tonight.” Ye Ziwen said directly.

&Quot; no, Anran is home alone. I have to go back early. &Quot; Su Yicheng rejected her without even thinking.

&Quot; su Yicheng, is Gu Anran a child? why wouldn’t she dare to be alone at home? why didn’t I realize that you were so henpecked before? aren’t you a little too much of a slave to your wife? ” Ye Ziwen said with some dissatisfaction. How many times had it been? it seemed that ever since he got married in a flash, they had not come out to drink together. Were all married men like this? That would be too terrifying!

&Quot; Anran’s situation is different when she’s pregnant. &Quot; Su Yicheng smiled faintly, as if he didn’t mind what he said. He doted on his wife and didn’t mind being called a wife-slave or a henpecked husband.

On the other end of the phone, ye Ziwen was stunned for a moment before he laughed out loud. &Quot; not bad, ah Luo. You’re really something. You’ve only been married for a short time. Don’t you think you’re working a little too hard? ”

“If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up.” Su Yicheng said lightly. He wasn’t going to discuss with him whether he was working hard or not.

When she heard that he was going to hang up, ye Ziwen quickly said,”Wait, ah Luo, come out and sit for a while tonight.” Ye Ziwen’s tone became serious, which was rare.

Su Yicheng raised his eyebrows and asked,”what happened?”

“I have something to ask you.” Ye Ziwen said a little dejectedly, ” six O ‘clock. I’ll wait for you at the usual place. &Quot;

Su Yicheng didn’t reject her again and nodded. &Quot; okay. &Quot;

After hanging up the phone, he thought for a moment, found an ran’s number, and called her directly.

The call was quickly connected, and Anran’s pleasant voice came from the other side of the phone with a faint smile. &Quot; Hello, leader su, are you finally done with your work? ” In a teasing tone, Anran used this method to show him her little dissatisfaction. They had originally agreed to go to the hospital to see father Lin first, and after seeing father Lin, the two of them would go on a date. After the two of them expressed their feelings for each other, they would have a real date. They didn’t have to follow the plan, and they could do whatever they wanted, and they could do whatever they wanted to do when they were happy. However, plans never kept up with changes. With one phone call, the date or whatever came to an end just like that.

“I’m sorry.” Su Yicheng took the initiative to admit his mistake and explained, ” “Something happened here at the last minute.”

“I didn’t say anything.” Anran mumbled. Of course, she knew that he was busy with work, so she naturally understood him. However, at the same time, she also felt sorry for him. She was afraid that he would be too tired if he didn’t rest even after all this.

“Yes, my wife is the most understanding.” Su Yicheng praised her.

“You’re so glib.” Although Anran said this on the other end of the phone, the corners of her mouth couldn’t help but curve up, and she looked especially beautiful.

Su Yicheng chuckled and asked, ” you’re back from the hospital? ”

&Quot; yes, I’m at my mother’s house now. My mother asked you to come over for dinner tonight. &Quot; An ran said.

Hearing that she was at her Maiden Home, this was just what he wanted. He said, ” “Ziwen has something to discuss with me tonight, so I won’t be going over for dinner. I’ll pick you up after I’m done talking to Ziwen.”

Speaking of ye Ziwen, an ran suddenly thought of something and said, ” “Yicheng, test ye Ziwen tonight.” She recalled the time in the military compound when yijiao cried so helplessly and pitifully.

Su Yicheng raised his eyebrows and asked in confusion, ” “What’s wrong?”

Anran briefly explained what happened last time to him. &Quot; you can test his attitude toward yijiao. If it’s impossible for him to not like her, then we can make yijiao let go of her as soon as possible. &Quot; Matters of the heart could not be forced. The longer it dragged on, the deeper the hurt would be. Sometimes, it was necessary to make such a prompt decision. Even if it hurt, it was only temporary.

Su Yicheng was silent for a while, then nodded and said, ” “Alright,” he said.

The old place that ye Ziwen pointed to was a high-class Leisure Club with its own coffee shop and bar. It was the best place for those who liked peace and quiet and didn’t want their privacy to be disturbed. Of course, the threshold here was high and ordinary people basically couldn’t enter. The annual fee alone was up to a million. Ye Ziwen was the original designer of the Zhang family club, so he had a lifetime membership here. Considering su Yicheng’s status, he was afraid that nightclubs and other bars would be used by busybodies, so this place became the place where they often gathered.

When su Yicheng arrived, ye Ziwen was sitting at the bar, drinking alone. He had opened a bottle of whiskey and had already finished half of it.

He sat down next to him and asked for a glass of water from the waiter, as well as a bowl of spaghetti. He didn’t plan to drink tonight, as he had to drive to pick Anran up later. Su Yicheng turned around and looked at the person next to him, then said coldly, ” “You didn’t ask me to drive you back, did you?”

Ye Ziwen raised his head and took another sip, then turned his head and looked at su Yicheng, asking, ” “Little Jiao has a boyfriend?” Two days ago, he had seen her holding a man’s hand affectionately as they went shopping. The two of them were even talking and laughing. In the past week, that girl had not even called him once. This had never happened before. It made him feel that something was wrong these few days, and he felt uncomfortable all over!

Su Yicheng raised his eyebrows slightly. It seemed that he didn’t need to open his mouth to test her, as a certain someone had already confessed.

Su Yicheng wasn’t in a hurry to answer his question. He turned around and took the water from the waiter, then politely thanked him, ” thank you. &Quot;

Someone was clearly getting impatient and said with dissatisfaction, ” “Hey, I’m asking you a question.”

Su Yicheng then turned to look at him, calmly shook his head, and said, ” “I’m not sure.”

Ye Ziwen frowned. &Quot; what kind of brother are you? you don’t even care about her! &Quot;

Su Yicheng took a sip of water and said calmly, ” “She’s no longer a child. We don’t have to watch over her every move.”

“Then she’s still your sister!” Ye Ziwen was a little agitated and dissatisfied with his indifference.

When he turned his head again, su Yicheng also didn’t say anything and just stared at him.

Ye Ziwen felt a little uncomfortable from his gaze. &Quot; What are you looking at? ”

Su Yicheng chuckled. &Quot; I thought you already knew that yijiao was my sister more than 20 years ago, ” he said. &Quot; I thought you already knew that she was my sister. &Quot;

Ye Ziwen was stunned and could not say a word.

Su Yicheng opened his mouth and said in a slightly serious tone, ” “Ye Ziwen, if you can’t give yijiao the feelings she wants, then don’t give her any hope. If she doesn’t get a response from you after a long time, she’ll let go one day.” This was a warning from a younger sister who was loved by an older brother!

Ye Ziwen looked at him in a daze. He had never thought that yijiao would leave one day. She had followed him around like a shadow since she was young. He had never thought about what would happen to him if she stopped following him. He had never thought about it!

Su Yicheng turned around and no longer looked at him. He drank some water and waited for the pasta to be served.

“Zi Wen?” A deep male voice came from behind him. Ye Ziwen seemed to still be immersed in his own emotions and had not reacted yet. However, su Yicheng, who was beside him, turned around. When he saw the man a few steps away from them, he was slightly surprised.
