The confusion on Li Laidi's face was obvious, "I'm just afraid, sister, do you understand?"

"I understand, but you have to strive for happiness by yourself. Don't give up easily. Brother Lai, you are no worse than others. Although your family background is not good and your father is a gambler, it is not your fault. You are self-reliant and self-reliant. , filial to my mother, and good at cooking, you are actually great." Jiang Mian said softly.

These words gave Li Laidi great encouragement. She nodded as if she had made up her mind, and looked at Jiang Mian, “I understand, sister, thank you."

…

Ji Zhilan's belly is getting bigger day by day, and it has been several months now.

On this day, Jiang Cheng said he had something to go to the company, so he stopped accompanying her to the prenatal check-up.

Ji Zhilan originally thought it didn't matter if she was alone, but until she arrived at the obstetrics department, she discovered that there were no mothers in pairs who were accompanying them. He couldn't help but blame Jiang Cheng a little in his heart.

"Be careful, wife."

"Oh, I haven't shown my pregnancy yet, it's okay."

Hearing this familiar voice, Ji Zhilan raised his head and saw Chang Qin supporting Chang Qingqing, who was still wearing a white coat.

She opened her eyes wide, “Brother Lu Cong, sister Qing Qing."

Chang Qin raised his head and said, "It's Zhilan."

Chang smiled slightly and said, "What a coincidence."

"You are also here for a prenatal checkup? Sister Qingqing is pregnant?"

"yes."

"Does everyone know?"

"I have announced the good news to my relatives and friends." Chang Qin nodded slightly, supported Chang Qingqing and took two steps forward, and whispered, “Sit down for a while."

Ji Zhilan felt sour in her heart. Ever since she married Jiang Cheng, she seemed to be out of touch with her original circle. In the past, her best friends asked her to go out to play, but she didn't dare to go out.

Chang Qin took out the prepared biscuits and fed them to Chang Qingqing's mouth, "Eat some, you ate too little in the morning. It's the mango flavor you like."

"I'm not hungry, okay, then I'll eat something...and you can eat too."

After she finished eating, Chang Qin took out the water glass again and said, "Drink some more water."

Ji Zhilan was jealous, and she stood up suddenly, “It's my turn, I'll go in first, Sister Qingqing, please wait slowly."

Chang Qin didn't even raise his head, "Okay, let's go."

After they left, Chang Chang gave him a lightly scolding look, "I told you not to accompany me anymore. You work in the hospital every day. It's not like I don't know you."

"No, I have to be with you so that I can rest assured. Besides, if you want to accompany our baby for a check-up, of course our family of three must be together."

Chang Qingqing felt sweet in her heart. She held Chang Qin's hand and said, "Aqin, it's great to have you."

"I promised to take care of you for the rest of my life, and that won't change."

Ji Zhilan returned home full of resentment. Jiang Cheng was playing games. When he heard the noise, he took off his headphones and said, "You're back?"

Ji Zhilan's eyes burned, "Didn't you say you went to the company? You came back earlier than me, why didn't you pick me up?"

Jiang Cheng, “It's so close to the hospital, what's there to pick up? I don't even have enough gas money to drive."

Ji Zhilan threw the bag on the bed with all his strength, "Jiang Cheng! Don't forget how you got here today!"

"Yes, yes, it's all thanks to you, Miss Ji! Without you, I would have starved to death. Are you satisfied?" Jiang Cheng mocked.

It was like this every time. Whenever there was a quarrel, Ji Zhilan would use this rhetoric. Didn't he get where he is today only by himself?

Seeing that Jiang Cheng didn't coax him as usual, Ji Zhilan's anger surged, "Jiang Cheng, what do you mean? You don't recognize people after you get the money?"

"Ji Zhilan, I want to ask you what you mean. A small quarrel every two days and a big quarrel every three days. Do you think it's interesting? We are husband and wife. Isn't it normal for you to spend your money on me? Don't act like one. Your giving tone.

If I live a good life, you can have a good life. Once you marry into our Jiang family, you become a member of our Jiang family. Don't act like a young lady every day! "

Jiang Cheng's barrage of words made Ji Zhilan speechless. She screamed, “Jiang Cheng! If you dare to say that to me, I will fight with you today!"

As she said that, she was about to rush over, while Jiang Cheng looked after the child in her belly. He quickly stood up and jumped away, "I'm warning you, don't go crazy!"

"You still have my son in your belly, please pay attention."

The nanny heard this familiar quarrel and came to persuade her, “Sir, my wife is still pregnant. If you have anything to say, please don't do anything!"

When Ji Zhilan was in a rage, he couldn't care so much. Seeing that Jiang Cheng was distracted, he picked up the pen holder on the table and smashed it.

"Hiss..." Jiang Cheng was caught off guard and was hit. He cried out in pain. He raised his hand and touched his cheek. There was thick blood on his cheek. He suddenly took a breath, “Ji Zhilan, you must be sick!"

He dodged and jumped out of the room, pushed away the nanny who was blocking his way, and said, "Go crazy as you go, I'm leaving!"

Ji Zhilan's chest heaved up and down, and she fell down on the bed. At this moment, she suddenly regretted it.

The nanny walked in cautiously and silently packed things on the floor.

In the evening, Jiang's mother came back for dinner after class. Jiang Cheng looked confused and asked, "Where is my son? It's so late and he's not back yet?"

Ji Zhilan sneered, "Your son is nothing."

Jiang's mother was displeased, "I said Zhilan, why did Jiang Cheng offend you? Why can't he forgive you? You want to say this to him."

"There are many things he can't do with me."

"We are all a family, why do we care so much? It's normal for a young couple to bump into each other." Jiang's mother was dissatisfied.

Ji Zhilan didn't want to talk and buried his head in eating.

After dinner, Jiang Cheng still didn't come back. Jiang's mother called him worriedly, but no one answered.

Only then did she realize something was wrong, looked at Ji Zhilan and asked, "Did you make my son angry?"

Ji Zhilan poked a piece of watermelon with a toothpick and put it in his mouth, "He is such a big man, and his legs are on him. Wherever he wants to go, can I still stop him?"

"You're not worried."

Ji Zhilan laughed and said, "Since mom is worried, just wait patiently. I am pregnant with the child and can't stay up all night, so I will go to bed first. By the way, if Jiang Cheng comes back, please tell mom to let him sleep in the guest room. So as not to wake up our mother and son. After all, pregnant women don’t sleep well.”

After she said that, she picked up the fruit plate and walked upstairs slowly.

Jiang's mother looked at her back and couldn't help but curse.

After waiting until twelve o'clock, Jiang Cheng came back and saw his mother in the living room, which shocked him.

He patted his chest and said, "Mom, if you don't sleep this late at night, what are you doing in the living room? You don't even turn on the light."

Jiang’s mother, “You still know how to come back, and I won’t answer your phone calls.”

A look of uneasiness flashed across Jiang Cheng's face, "There's something wrong. Turn off the phone."

"As long as you're okay, I'll go to bed with peace of mind when you come back. By the way, your wife has already gone to bed. I want you to sleep in the guest room tonight, so don't disturb her."

Jiang Cheng was unhappy, "She asked me to sleep in the guest room, so I'll sleep in the guest room? I won't listen to her."

He ran up to the second floor, unlocked the master bedroom door, and found that the door was locked.

He couldn't help but cursed secretly, "You're so bad, Ji Zhilan!"

Jiang Cheng walked towards the guest room angrily.

Early the next morning, Ji Zhilan saw that Jiang Cheng was exhausted last night and couldn't help but raise his voice, “Looking at it, I feel comfortable sleeping alone. I felt like I had a good night's sleep last night."

Jiang's mother didn't think there was anything wrong. She nodded, "You are pregnant and your mood fluctuates a lot. If you feel that Jiang Cheng is in the way in the future, you'd better sleep alone. Jiang Cheng can feel more relaxed alone."

Jiang Cheng put down the cake in his hand and looked at Ji Zhilan, “It's so early in the morning, why do I think you are uneasy and kind-hearted?"

Ji Zhilan said innocently, "Mom, look at your son, why do you say that about me? How come I mean this to him even though I have good intentions?"

Jiang Cheng didn't tell Jiang's mother about their quarrel yesterday. Ji Zhilan expected that Jiang Cheng would not talk about it in order not to worry Jiang's mother.

Sure enough, Jiang's mother was on her side, "Jiang Cheng, be polite and don't make your wife sad."

"By the way, I didn't see it last night, but I just discovered it today. What's wrong with the injury on your face?" Jiang's mother asked.

Jiang Cheng glanced at Ji Zhilan with an unclear expression, "It's okay, I just accidentally fell down without turning on the light last night."

Jiang's mother felt very distressed, "Tell me, why weren't you so careless?"

As she said that, she held Jiang Cheng's face in her hands and looked at it carefully, “Remember to turn on the lights next time, do you hear me? We don't miss the money."

"I know, Mom, it's not serious, just apply some medicine and it'll be fine."

…

After Shen Tingyu finished filming her new drama, the first thing she did when she returned to Kyoto was to call Ji Zhixiu.

"Zhixiu, you still remember what you promised me last time. I'll be the host and you'll bring Lu Cong and the others over for dinner."

Afraid of Ji Zhixiu's rejection, Shen Tingyu hesitated and said, "It's a pity that my brother is not at home...otherwise everyone would have gathered together."

"You will come, right?"

Ji Zhixiu was silent for a moment, so long that Shen Tingyu thought he wouldn't answer. There was a faint "Hmm" from the other end, followed by, “Address."

Shen Tingyu felt happy, "Fuyun Tower, tomorrow night. Just tell me my name."

"I got it." After saying that, he hung up the phone without mercy.

Then he told Lu Cong and the others the news.

Lu Cong jumped directly to Ji's. He sat on the sofa in Ji Zhixiu's office, commanding Fan Cheng to buy snacks in his hand.

Ji Zhixiu looked at him condescendingly and said, "Go out and eat."

Lu Cong pouted, "I'm eating here, thousands of miles away from you. Just like this, your mysophobia can also occur?"

He finished the rest in two or three bites and threw away the trash. "If you want to eat it, did Mu Yuan say when you would be back?"

Ji Zhixiu decided, "Next week."

Lu Cong smacked his lips, "I really want Mu Yuan to take a good look at what his sister is like."

Ji Zhilan lowered his eyes and turned over a page of documents expressionlessly. "Do you really think he doesn't understand Shen Tingyu's personality?"

Lu Cong's eyes widened, "What do you mean?"

"It's no use telling you."

Lu Cong rolled his eyes, "Okay, okay, our boss Ji is right. Don't look at it, don't look at it. How long has it been since you had a drink?"

He stood up and came to the table, closed the documents, and put his hand on Ji Zhixiu's shoulder, “Come to Seattle for a few drinks. Chang Qin will come later. We haven't gotten together for a long time."
