Chapter 282: She's My Woman
Gu Xiu and Zhong Qing returned to their home, not the new apartment that Gu Xiu bought in the city center, but the house where they lived opposite four years ago.
The previous owner changed the decoration style and replaced it with new furniture, and it took a lot of trouble for Gu Xiu to restore the house to the same as before. Gu Xiu bought two houses, not for anything else, just because Zhong Qing said before that he wanted to go back here again.
Walking into the place where he once lived again, Zhong Qing had mixed feelings in her heart.
"You really bought it......"
"It's a place with memories of the two of us, and of course I'm going to buy it back." Gu Xiu put the luggage into the house without pretending to be someone else's hand, he knew that Zhong Qing was used to being independent and didn't like too many people to serve.
Zhong Qing sat on the sofa, she looked around, and felt that nothing had changed.
Gu Xiu poured her a glass of warm water and sat beside her, carefully touching Zhong Qing's stomach.
"The doctor said that the baby can now feel the sound outside, you can talk to him more and let him know his father in advance."
Gu Xiu had never felt this way, the joy of becoming a father and the faint uneasiness, this uneasiness came from the uncertainty of himself, he vowed to be the best father possible, but when the child was about to be born, he began to doubt his ability.
Nervousness and excitement cannot be hidden, even if Gu Xiu is still a well-known "Gu Second Master" in the business world in the company, but at home in front of Zhong Qing, he can unhide his joys, sorrows, and sorrows.
The slender fingers were placed on Zhong Qing's stomach, even though Gu Xiu had seen the wind and waves, he was still nervous the moment he really felt the continuation of his life.
Zhong Qing looked at Gu Xiu's cautious appearance, hooked her lips and smiled.
"Baby, this is your dad, do you feel it?"
As soon as Zhong Qing's words fell, Gu Xiu suddenly felt the fetal movement, he raised his head and looked at Zhong Qing, and really felt the existence of life in her belly, which was indescribable.
Gu Xiu kissed Zhong Qing's forehead, he felt sorry for her haggardness, the two hadn't seen each other for more than a month, Zhong Qing's mental state was a little bad, presumably because she was worried about the relationship between him and Zhong Jingtian recently, which made her embarrassed.
"I'm fine." Zhong Qing gave Gu Xiu a reassuring look and said, "You, the big boss of the Y-ing Group, still have work to do, leave me alone, go to work!" β
Gu Xiu really didn't worry about Zhong Qing staying alone in the house, but he couldn't take her with him all the time, and suddenly had a plan to let the company take a collective holiday, but after thinking about it, Gu Xiu gave up again.
"Then I'll go first, and I'll come back in the evening to cook for you."
"Yes!" Zhong Qing smiled, she sent Gu Xiu to the door, and then turned on the TV casually.
"Zhong Qing, the director of Q's studio, was revealed to be pregnant, and an insider photographed her and the boss of a group going in and out of the obstetrics and gynecology department."
"Counting Zhong Qing's previous 'boyfriends', is this pregnancy to marry into a wealthy family?"
Hearing such news, Zhong Qing had to turn her head and look twice.
It turned out that I don't know who took the picture of her and Gu Xiu going to the hospital for prenatal checkup, and sent it to reporters for the media to hype, Zhong Qing knew that a lot of things had happened before, which made her image very bad in front of reporters and media, and now they have seized this news that is unfavorable to them, and they will definitely hype it up.
Zhong Qing didn't care about it, but thinking of what her soon-to-be-born child might face, she had to make a plan.
On the other side, in Gu Xiu's car, Wei Lan showed Gu Xiu the tablet playing the news, who turned his head when he heard the name "Zhong Qing" and frowned after hearing what was said behind.
"Now that the negative news about Miss Zhong has not been completely resolved, do you need us to contact these media outlets......
"No need." Gu Xiu put down the tablet and said calmly: "Driver, drive to the first media to publish this kind of false news." β
"Yes!"
Half an hour later, Gu Xiu took Wei Lan and Wei Bai to appear in the top news media center in City A.
The guards at the door couldn't stop Gu Xiu at all, and the three of them crossed the front desk and went directly to the work area, and some of them recognized Gu Xiu's identity and hurriedly ran to the editor-in-chief's room to find someone.
The editor-in-chief of this media is a middle-aged man in his forties, after hearing the news that his subordinates reported that Gu Xiu had come, he first slowly glanced down from the floor-to-ceiling window, and then asked someone to take Gu Xiu to the conference room, and he would arrive later.
It's a pity that Gu Xiu didn't pay attention to it at all after hearing such a reply, Wei Lan took the lead and directly kicked open the door of the editor-in-chief's office, Wei Bai was guarding the door, obviously there were only three people, but the momentum they showed made no one else dare to approach.
Gu Xiu glanced at the man in front of him and said, "Editor-in-chief Zhang, is it?" β
Editor-in-chief Zhang sat in the chair, nervously changing the posture of his body several times, he wanted to show that he was not afraid of Gu Xiu at all, but his uneasy expression betrayed him.
"That...... Mr. Gu, can we put the curtain down first? β
Gu Xiu turned his head and glanced at the floor-to-ceiling window behind him, and all the employees downstairs looked up in their direction, this editor-in-chief Zhang was afraid of losing face in front of the staff, so he said this.
"You sent the news, right?"
Editor-in-chief Zhang swallowed: "This, this is someone who took a photo and sent it to me......"
"So you didn't find out the truth of the matter, and you speculated about the kind of news that would attract attention, right?"
The relationship between Gu Xiu and Zhong Qing is not a secret in the circle, although many people in the business world do not know the entanglement between the two in detail, they know that the two are dating, and they are about to get married.
As a well-informed media, it is impossible for Editor-in-Chief Zhang not to know about this.
As for why he posted such news on the Internet after knowing about it, there was only one reason, and that was that he wanted to attract the attention of the public who did not know the truth.
"Mr. Gu, don't forget, there was a psychiatrist in Rachel who personally said that you were going to get engaged, how did I know that Miss Zhong was pregnant with your child......"
In the middle of speaking, Editor-in-Chief Zhang suddenly saw Gu Xiu's face change, and he immediately shut up.
"I'll let them change it right away! Right away! Editor-in-Chief Zhang nodded in promise, and then ran downstairs quickly, yelling at the staff-
"Look what you've all done! How can that kind of factual news be put on the Internet! I don't want to do it anymore, do I! Why don't you take the news down for me! β
In the editor-in-chief's office, Wei Lan stepped forward and said, "Second master, this trick should be very effective, I think it won't take twenty-four hours, and those news will be taken down." β
"A bunch of shameless things, do you know that Gu always can't be offended? How many times have I told you that you have to be a journalist with professional ethics! Should you all be on deaf ears! Yes!? β
"Who is responsible for this story? I won't be in the company next month! Don't let me see you again! β
The other employees bowed their heads, daring to be angry.
Gu Xiu, who was standing on the second floor, frowned.
"Wrong."
"What?"
"I was wrong." Gu Xiu said in a low voice: "I didn't believe her at the beginning, it was I who forgot about her, so she was subjected to so much criticism." β
Wei Lan blamed herself: "Second master, it's not your fault, I shot you in the first place......"
"Now is not the time to dwell on who's right and who's wrong." Wei Bai's voice suddenly sounded next to him: "Second Master, didn't you say that you were going to propose to Zhong Qing?" We can take the opportunity to get the media to give her a clean slate, can't we? β
Gu Xiu raised his eyebrows, he walked to Wei Bai's side and patted him on the shoulder, and then left here with the two of them.

On the other side, in the Zhong family villa, Zhong Jingtian looked at Zhong Qing's empty room and sighed deeply.
He didn't blame Chu Shuzhi for letting Zhong Qing leave, nor did he reprimand his subordinates for not acting according to his orders, after experiencing that meeting at the Inge Hotel, his whole person seemed to have suffered a big blow.
Chu Shuzhi felt sorry for Zhong Jingtian's side, and brought the boiled white fungus lotus seed porridge to him, but Zhong Jingtian couldn't eat a bite.
Two old men over half a hundred years old sat opposite each other, Zhong Jingtian looked at the woman in front of him who was no longer young, and he was reluctant to do so, and he was nostalgic.
"I said I was going to take Xiaoqing away before, do you hate me very much?"
Chu Shuzhi smiled bitterly: "I did something wrong back then, and God wants to take revenge on me now, and I accept it." What's more, I owe Xiaoqing ......"
"But Lao Zhong, Xiaoqing really likes Gu Xiu, the two children are very good together, you just listen to my advice, don't worry about it anymore, okay?"
Zhong Jingtian sighed.
What happened in the Inge Hotel, he didn't want to tell Chu Shuzhi because he felt ashamed. The four families he cares about the most are not what they used to be, and in the end, only he is "naΓ―ve" to think that everything can go back to the past.
It's a pity that the reality has long been gone.
Chu Shuzhi felt sorry for Zhong Jingtian, walked over and sat beside him and held his hand, she was telling him in this way that no matter what happened, she would support him.
Zhong Nian passed by the living room and watched her father and mother sitting together, and she seemed to have not seen such a "warm" picture for a long time.
For a while, there was sadness, heartache, and relief, Zhong Nian raised his head to prevent tears from falling. Since she was a child, what she longed for most was a real home, but in her memory, she did not belong to the Zhong family for a long time.
Maybe the memory engraved in the bones can't be erased, but at least this picture Zhong Nian can never forget.
If the mistake can be forgiven, then does it prove that everything she has done for Gu Zihan now is not in vain?
Zhong Nian took a deep breath, she walked out of the door, feeling the warm and dazzling sunshine outside, thinking in her heart that it would be nice if Gu Zihan could feel it too.
