C41 (1/2)
Spring left for the summer solstice. A month's time was enough for everyone to change from a spring dress into a thin shirt. Although the summer dress wasn't light yet, it was obvious that everyone was waiting for the arrival of summer.
Chuxin Xia looked at her bulging stomach, then thought about her mother's puzzled eyes these two days, and her eyebrows wrinkled up.
Her stomach was no longer covering up, and her pregnant reaction was very obvious. This was already the third month and her stomach wasn't big yet. She could temporarily cover it up with fat, but there was nothing she could do next.
He suddenly thought of Chen Dongdong, that honest and reliable man.
Ye Zichen took out his phone to find his number. He hesitated for a moment, but didn't call.
”Xin Xia, I made some beef bone soup, do you want some more?” Mother Chu brought out a pot of soup from the kitchen and placed it on the table, ”Xin Xia, hurry and eat a bit, then you can go to work later.”
Chu Xinxia nodded, and endured the nagging feeling of vomiting. Only then did she barely manage to drink two mouthfuls of soup.
”Mom, I'm going on a business trip with the boss next month. It'll probably take half a month.”
”Ah, so long …” Mrs Chu put down the spoon worriedly, ”I see that you don't really want to eat these days, is that really okay?”
Seeing her mother's worried gaze, Chu Xinxia smiled, ”It's okay, mom, I'm fine.”
Mother Chu nodded, as if she had thought of something, and sighed helplessly, ”Shen Xia, although I know you don't have to worry about getting married, mother always wants you to marry a good man who knows everything about marriage. If there are suitable ones, you can marry them. ”
”Mom, why are you talking about this again …” Didn't I tell you before? I have a pretty good relationship with Chen Dongdong. ” Chu Xinxia put down the bowl and chopsticks in her hands, ”I can't rush this kind of thing.”
”You guys really got along well?” Chu Xinxia's mother looked at her doubtfully, ”Xinxia, don't lie to your mother.”
”Mom, how could I possibly lie to you?” Chu Xinxia went to her mother's side and squatted down, looking up at her white temples. ”Mom, I'm very happy, really.”
Even without a man, she still had a mother, and she was about to become one. Even though it was difficult, even though the future was difficult, she still felt happy.
There were tears in Chu's mother's eyes. How could she not understand the meaning behind Chu Xinxia's evasion? But since his daughter felt happy, what else was there for him to ask for?
”Xin Xia, listen to mom, think more about yourself, don't worry about mom. If you really meet someone you like, you don't have to hide it from your mother. ”
Chu Xinxia nodded. She also felt that her mother seemed to know something. Although she didn't ask directly, her mother must have sensed something, right? He wanted to confess to his mother and also wanted her understanding and support. But there was no way she could make her mother worry.
”Alright Mom, I'm going to work.” Chu Xinxia wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes, then persuaded her a few words before she left.
However, just as Chu Xin and Xia Bei left, Jiang Hengyuan knocked on the Chu Family's door.
Chu Mu was shocked when she saw the radiant Jiang Hengyuan standing there.
”Auntie, you don't mind if I come in, do you? Today, I came here to accompany you. I don't have time to spend with you at home, so I'll do it! ” Jiang Hengyuan didn't treat himself as an outsider at all as he entered the door, and then began his ”secret day.”
”Xin Xia, what happened to you?” Earlier, Tong Xiaoxiao had gone to the United States. She had heard that a new person from the headquarters was needed to expand her business there. After learning and following up on the progress, Lu Xunqian directly assigned Tong Xiaoxiao over to him.
When Tong Xiaoxiao came back, she looked even more outstanding. With her European and American charm, along with her eye-catching ability and education, she made everyone even more envious. Because of this, her relationship with Chu Xinxia became even closer.
