Sitting on the balcony and basking in the sun after breakfast, Qin Zhi’ai asked her mother to take a walk with her at West Lake after realizing how nice the weather was.
They ended up eating out for lunch, and by the time they got home it was already one o’clock in the afternoon. Qin Zhi’ai would often get sleepy during her pregnancy, so she went to her room to take a nap.
By the time she woke up, the sun had set.
After using the restroom, she saw her mother preparing dinner in the kitchen.
Qin Zhi’ai stretched her body before taking a seat on the sofa and turning on the TV.
Not finding anything she wanted to watch, Qin Zhi’ai stopped on a children’s channel to watch an animated show.
When it went to a commercial, Qin Zhi’ai picked her phone up and saw a message notification.
She clicked it and smiled at a picture Xu Wennuan had sent. She responded with a jealous emoji, and Xu Wennuan immediately responded with a giggling emoji. Qin Zhi’ai responded to her with a random emoji, and then she received a series of emojis from Xu Wennuan again.
Just as Qin Zhi’ai was about to put her phone down, she saw Xu Wennuan shared a link with her. Before she clicked the link, she read the headline “Bro. Sheng Got Married with My Idol Liang.”
She stared at the phone screen and drifted away for a long time. She didn’t recover her composure until her mother had finished cooking and walked out of the kitchen to let her know dinner was ready. She hadn’t noticed that her phone screen had gone black.
“Xiao’ai, what are you doing there? Wash your hands and have dinner,” her mother said.
As she carried the dinner out, she had to urge her again to wash her hands, as Qin Zhi’ai still hadn’t moved from the sofa.
“Yes,” Qin Zhi’ai responded, looking up at her mother, and then she immediately stood up and walked to the bathroom.
But instead of washing her hands, she instead leaned on the bathroom door, held her breath, and unlocked her phone. She clicked her messages app and clicked the link Xu Wennuan had sent her.
The first photograph showed Gu Yusheng and Liang Doukou walking together to city hall. The second photograph showed Liang Doukou and Gu Yusheng walking together into the hospital that Old Master Gu was staying at.
She closely examined both photographs before reading the article they accompanied.
“Superstar Liang Doukou married a wealthy man yesterday. According to a witness in the hospital, as Gu Yusheng’s grandfather fought to recover from his illness, the phenomenal Liang Doukou took a leave from her job to take care of Old Master Gu and nurse him back to health.”
Qin Zhi’ai read this line many times trying to comprehend it.
From the article, she learned that Gu Yusheng had been discharged from the hospital, married Liang Doukou, and then visited Old Master Gu in the hospital for his congratulations.
He actually married Liang Doukou for Old Master Gu?
Isn’t this what I wanted to happen?
This is good news, right? I shouldn’t feel sad about this, should I?
Qin Zhi’ai immediately put aside any expectations she may have been building since Gu Yusheng had told her before losing consciousness, “Wait for me to rouse.” Qin Zhi’ai had always been prepared for the news that Gu Yusheng and Liang Doukou would be together, she couldn’t help but feel sad when reading the announcement.
