Chapter 37: Light the Lamp for You
"Alright then, breakfast is almost ready, let's eat together when you come down!"
Gu Niancheng said softly, and printed a shallow good morning kiss between Xia Xiran's eyebrows.
The person in his arms was only wearing a suspender nightdress, his curly hair was slightly messy, and he was still half-asleep and half-awake, and there was a kind of charming and hazy beauty.
He was stunned and reluctant to leave. God knows how much he wants to love her, hug her, and kiss her generously, but he can't reach it when he thinks about it, and he has to settle down.
Now that Cheng Siqi has died young, the two of them have time, and there is no need to rush for a while. And Gu Niancheng also believes that time can melt away the emotional barriers between the two of them, so that Xia Xiran can change his opinion of himself. So this time you can really take your time and don't rush.
Thinking of this, Gu Niancheng couldn't help but feel a little complacent, but he felt that he was jumping on someone else's grave, a little unkind.
"I'm going to change my clothes, are you going to stay and watch!"
The soft voice sounded in his ears, Xia Xiran gently pushed Gu Niancheng, turned his little head to the side, and didn't look at him.
"No, take care of yourself. I'm guarding the door, and something calls me!"
He reached out to pinch her little face, and the two looked at each other. Gu Niancheng looked at her shy appearance and was overjoyed. At this moment, the residual warmth between the fingers is entangled, and the dark fragrance on the heart is floating.
Xia Xiran let out a soft "um", but didn't dare to look at him. She clutched the corners of the quilt tightly and waited for him to close the door.
Now that this is the case, Xia Xiran can't even think about life after marriage. Although he knew that Gu Niancheng was willing, he still owed something.
She didn't know how to repay this favor.
The tender and delicious slippery egg porridge added a hint of ruddy to Xia Xiran, and recently because of the severe morning sickness, her little face was miserable and white, Gu Niancheng was really relieved.
Now, the weather is getting cooler and her schoolwork is busy, if she doesn't insist on doing so, how can he be willing to let her work so hard.
On the way to school, Gu Niancheng's mouth never stopped. This one doesn't work, that one doesn't allow it, Xia Xiran himself is embarrassed.
But after thinking about it, if Cheng Siqi was still there, it would probably be like this! She couldn't help but smile, making him lose his mind for a moment.
"I'll ask Butler Qian to prepare lunch for you at noon, and I'll pick you up again in the afternoon!"
"Hmm!"
She promised to get out of the car, but accidentally touched Gu Niancheng's hand, so startled that she hurriedly shrank back and sat there in a daze.
After noticing this subtle change, Gu Niancheng smiled faintly, then leaned over and stole incense on her cheek.
When Xia Xiran disappeared into the sea of people, Gu Niancheng couldn't hold back any longer, and a trace of loneliness flashed on his face. But when he thought that the Gu family and the Xia family didn't make it clear on either side, he didn't allow himself to hang his head at this juncture.
The company's business was overwhelmed, and Gu Niancheng lacked skills, so he could only cheekily push the work to Xiao Zichen and Zhao Pingxuan, and he drove home.
Looking at her dusty son, Wen Junru suddenly felt a little unfamiliar. After a few days of not seeing him, she always felt that he had changed.
"Mom, you're at home! Great, I have something to tell you. ”
"Hmm!"
Since Gu Niancheng went all the way to Zhonghai to help the Cheng family take care of the funeral, Wen Junru knew that his affection for Xia Xiran was still the same as always, and this matter should be talked about.
"I'm going to marry Xiran!"
"Oh, she promised you?"
Gu Niancheng nodded, his eyes dodged, and he didn't dare to look directly at Wen Junru. He looked around and saw that Steward Qian was not there, and there were only their mother and son in the living room, so he said slowly.
"Yes, when she gives birth to the baby, we will have a wedding. ”
"Tsk, this kid!"
Seeing that her mother took the initiative to mention the baby, Gu Niancheng knew that she still had some mustard in her heart, so she hurriedly mustered up the courage to add: "Actually, it was my and Xiran's child. ”
"What!"
"That night, I heard that there was a little misunderstanding between Xiran and Cheng Siqi, so I went to see it when I was not at ease. Then I drank with her, and we both drank too much and ......"
With his hesitant words and erratic eyes, Wen Junru didn't know whether his son was so ashamed or lying like this.
"Niancheng, why are you saying such things at this time!" Wen Junru was furious, she didn't believe that her son would do such a thing that couldn't be put on the table, and she didn't want to go to Suo Wen for verification for this.
"Mom, I've been holding this in my heart for a long time. That day, when I learned that Xiran was pregnant, I really didn't know what to do. I went crazy and ran to Cheng Siqi's research institute. Because, because Xiran always thought it was her and his child. Therefore, I think if you want to say that you want to kill this child, it is more appropriate to let Cheng Siqi say this. ”
"You went to find Cheng Siqi that day, and there was an accident in the institute in the afternoon. Niancheng! There's really nothing to do with this!"
At present, the police only say that most of the accidents in the institute were caused by the operation errors of internal personnel, but the specific details are still unknown. Wen Junru couldn't help but think crookedly.
"I, perhaps!"
"That's why you were so busy with Cheng Siqi's funeral! So that day you asked me in every possible way to keep Xia Liqing and his wife! Niancheng! Mom's head really hurts, aren't you going to force Xiran to death!"
Wen Junru supported her head with one hand and gave herself a smooth breath with the other, "Xia Liqing is okay to say, but Huang Shufen will definitely not accept it! Now you tell them that the child is yours, Xia Liqing and his wife have nothing to say, but they will not hide it from Xiran as carefully as you. ”
Mother's analysis was not unreasonable, but Gu Niancheng knew it, so he was not flustered, and he added confidently: "Mom, don't worry, I have already told Uncle Xia about this." I'll go to Xia's house again in a while, trying to convince Aunt Huang not to tell Xiran the truth. I don't think she would have said it! After all, Xiran was her only daughter. ”
Gu Niancheng knew that he couldn't hide it from Wen Junru, so he could only reveal the information little by little for her to ponder and choose whether to believe it or not.
Of course, for him, he also has to expose his ignorance through a point, and only by letting his mother grasp his own problems can he cover up other flaws. Before coming here, Gu Niancheng remembered clearly, this point is the mother-daughter relationship between Xia Xiran and Huang Shufen.
"Well, you'd be very wrong to think so. Huang Shufen said to Xi Ran that she was not a loving mother. If she knows about the child, I'm afraid the focus is not on your marriage, but on the sisterhood between Xiran and Xixi. If she wants to accept the two of you with a smile, it's tantamount to a fool's dream!"
After many years of friendship, Wen Junru knows Huang Shufen well. The entanglement between her sister Huang Shuya and Xia Liqing made her feel that the sisters liked a man at the same time. Now that something similar has happened to her daughter, for Huang Shufen, there is no such thing as meat on the palms and backs of her hands.
"But Uncle Xia came to me this morning, and I already told him the truth. Mom, what should I do now?" Gu Niancheng pretended to be flustered, and hurriedly came to Wen Junru's side, looking frightened and a little at a loss.
"What should I do, what else can I do! Hurry up to Xia's house! As the so-called concern is chaos, I think you are, you have recently reduced your intelligence!"
She looked at Gu Niancheng as she spoke, her face full of helplessness.
