"I'll get Mo Zhi to find a nanny to come over later. When I'm not at home, I can take care of you and also accompany you." Mo Zhaoyun said.
Gong Wan’er's heart thumped, and said: "There's no need, I can handle it myself. Besides, I don't want a stranger with me. "
Seeing Gong Wan’er frown, Mo Zhaoyun did not persist, and said: "Alright, I will not look." He shook Gong Wan’er's hand and continued, "If you don't want to, then don't. Then I'll get off work early and come back to stay with you and the baby. " When she mentioned Gong Wan’er and the baby in her stomach, Mo Zhaoyun would laugh uncontrollably.
"You don't need to come back early. Work is more important." Gong Wan’er said lightly.
Mo Zhaoyun had always known that Gong Wan’er was a understanding person, but every time she heard him drop his work for her, he would be very happy. Not like today, where he would even say "The work is more important" indifferently. It's like this. After experiencing a loss, you'll become especially sensitive, even if it's just a short sentence.
Gong Wan’er looked at Mo Zhaoyun and did not speak for a long time. He turned his head and looked at Mo Zhaoyun and asked, "What's wrong?"
Mo Zhaoyun shook his head, laughed and said: "I'm fine. You stay home and I'll try to get the job done quickly and then come back and stay with you. I heard that pregnant women are very lethargic, so take a good rest. "
Gong Wan’er nodded and focused on eating the bread.
Mo Zhaoyun's previous dejected mood had not completely dissipated yet. Looking at Gong Wan’er's calm expression, he had the feeling that he was punching cotton, and it felt very powerless. Take your time. He shook his head and smiled bitterly.
In next to no time, they had finished their breakfast.
Mo Zhaoyun returned to his bedroom, changed his clothes, and said to Gong Wan’er: "Evening, I'm going." His eyes were filled with reluctance.
Gong Wan’er looked at Mo Zhaoyun and nodded slightly. Only when she heard the door shut did she reveal her thoughts. She looked at the door and sighed softly.
"What am I going to do alone?" She whispered that she was the only one in such a large space. During this period of time, she seemed to have gotten used to this kind of situation, but she would still feel disappointed.
She walked around the apartment and finally decided to clean it up. It must have been a lot of dust not to have stayed in for so many days.
An hour later, she cleaned up most of the place in the apartment, leaving only Mo Zhaoyun's study. She stood in the doorway of the study, as if she wanted to go in but didn't want to.
She remembered that when she went to his study, she basically didn't go in to look for Mo Zhaoyun. Other than serving him coffee or urging him to rest, she also remembered that time when she went to the study room, she found out that Xuan Xuan was Mo Zhaoyun's son. The memory of that day on the floor of the study came back to her.
"It's better not to go. What if we discover some other secret?" Gong Wan’er continued to speak, and a bitter smile appeared on his face. It seemed that this matter would forever be a pain in her heart.
In the end, she didn't open the door to the study. She went into the living room and went out with a big bag of trash. She did not notice that there was someone around the corner. When he saw her, his face was filled with surprise and anger. His hands were clenched tightly into fists.
… ….
Mo Zhaoyun's office.
As soon as he arrived at the office, he took off his jacket and called Mo Zhi in.
"Boss Mo." Mo Zhi shouted. Seeing Mo Zhaoyun's happy expression, he laughed and asked, "You seem to be in a good mood today." At this time, he was not like Mo Zhaoyun's assistant, but a little brother who was joking with his brother.
"Mmm, my mood is pretty good." Mo Zhaoyun laughed, then said: "You go find two people to protect me, I am afraid that she will still beat up the child. Be careful, don't let her find out. " Actually, what he was afraid of wasn't this, but the faint thought in his mind.
"Alright." Mo Zhi nodded, looking at Mo Zhaoyun's happy expression, he continued, "Boss Mo, there are some things I am not sure whether or not I should say."
Mo Zhaoyun flipped through the documents on the table, then lowered his head and spoke: "Speak."
"After all, this isn't a long term solution. I feel that we have to start from the roots and get rid of the matter between Chu Ning and him. Otherwise, there will always be a problem." Mo Zhi said.
But in the eyes of Mo’s Father, they firmly believed that Xuan Xuan was their grandson. If they rashly made a decision, they would definitely not be able to accept it.
Seeing that Mo Zhaoyun did not have any reaction, Mo Zhi continued to say: "If I were the Madam, I probably won't be relieved." In the past few days, when he saw that Gong Wan’er had suffered, he naturally could not bear to say a few words on behalf of Gong Wan’er, and did not care about his rank.
"I know. How about this, you go and check on Chu Ning, he is more detailed than last time. Some of them look all right, more like a lot of trickery. " Mo Zhaoyun said with a terrifyingly low voice, his eyebrows knitted together tightly.
Hearing Mo Zhaoyun's words, Mo Zhi laughed and said, "Okay." Then he left the office.
Mo Zhaoyun had been extremely busy throughout the entire morning. In this period, he had done far too much work, and there were many documents that needed his personal attention.
In the blink of an eye, it was already noon. Mo Zhaoyun looked at the time and took out his phone to call Gong Wan’er. However, no one answered. He tried again, but still no one answered.
It can't be? Is she?
Traces of panic emerged from Mo Zhaoyun's heart. He immediately grabbed his jacket and walked out of the office in large strides.
Twenty minutes later, he arrived at the apartment. He took out his key, opened the door and walked in. His body felt weak. He wanted to go in and take a look, but he was afraid of facing the result.
The living room was empty.
There was no one in the kitchen.
Bedroom?
He opened the bedroom door and saw that the curtains were drawn tight. It was pitch black inside, and by the light of the door he could see that the bed was bulging and that his heart had finally dropped. Was he worrying too much about personal gains and losses? Isn't it too sensitive?
Smiling, he walked over and turned on the dim bedside lamp. The light shone onto Gong Wan’er's face, making her seem very tranquil. It was a wonderful feeling to see his beloved girl asleep in their room.
He looked at Gong Wan’er's face, extended his hand, and lifted Gong Wan’er's hair that was scattered in front of his forehead behind his ears. He leaned over and kissed her forehead, feeling reluctant to part with her, and then kissed her again.
"Evening." By noon, he called softly, it was time for lunch.
Gong Wan’er was still asleep and had no intention to wake up at all. Mo Zhaoyun saw that Gong Wan’er was sleeping soundly, so he couldn't bear to wake her up. He smiled, touched her cheek, then opened the door gently and walked out.
When Gong Wan’er woke up, thirty minutes had already passed. She opened her eyes and saw that the bedside lamp had been turned on. She clearly remembered that she had turned it off before going to bed.
Had Mo Zhaoyun returned?
She pulled away her blanket, got up from the bed, and slowly walked out. However, she did not see Mo Zhaoyun.
"Who is that?" she whispered to herself.
Just as he was about to turn around and return, he heard the door open, and saw Mo Zhaoyun carrying a bag in.
"You're awake?" Mo Zhaoyun smiled dotingly, placed the bag on the table and walked to Gong Wan’er's side.
Gong Wan’er saw the symbol on the bag and asked, "You went to buy lunch?"
"Yes, you can't bear to wake you up when you're asleep. "Originally, I wanted to go out to eat, but I had to go to your favorite restaurant to pack my bags and come back." Mo Zhaoyun said as he continued to look at Gong Wan’er lovingly.
Gong Wan’er smiled, his heart warm. Mo Zhaoyun laughed when he saw Gong Wan’er, and then he was satisfied. Holding Gong Wan’er's hand, he walked to the side of the table and sat down, and said: "Hurry and eat, our baby is definitely hungry too."
"Do you only care about our baby?" Gong Wan’er blurted out and only after that did he realize what he had said.
Hearing this, Mo Zhaoyun laughed even more happily than before, "Of course not, I am definitely hungry too."
Seeing Mo Zhaoyun like that, Gong Wan’er no longer said anything. He took the food out from the bag with his head down and started to eat it.
Mo Zhaoyun thought that Gong Wan’er was shy, and was satisfied. He thought that since time could destroy everything, then he could establish everything. He must have been overthinking it.
"You don't eat?" Gong Wan’er asked as he saw Mo Zhaoyun sitting there.
"Eat, eat, eat." Mo Zhaoyun said as he picked up the food.
Seeing such a flustered Mo Zhaoyun, Gong Wan’er could not help but laugh, his mood seemed to have improved a lot.
After eating the meal, the two of them were in a good mood, and Mo Zhaoyun also had to return to the company after he finished eating.
"You don't want me to stay with you?" Mo Zhaoyun sat there and asked seriously.
Gong Wan’er looked at Mo Zhaoyun in shock, as if she couldn't understand the meaning of his words. Actually, she had done it on purpose, she didn't want to be so intimate with him.
Seeing that Gong Wan’er was not moved by her words, a look of awkwardness appeared on his face, as if he had gone through some mental activity before he said: "Evening, I want to accompany you."
Gong Wan’er was just about to drink his water, but hearing this, he immediately spat out the water in his mouth and started coughing. Seeing that, Mo Zhaoyun took a tissue and helped her wipe the water droplets off the corner of her mouth. He looked at Gong Wan’er worriedly, patting her back, and said: "Are you alright?"
Gong Wan’er shook his head and complained: "Mo Zhaoyun, what are you doing?" Her tone of voice was extremely similar to when they were still arguing. At that time, she was still acting unbridled in front of Mo Zhaoyun and received endless favors. That was why she was able to call out Mo Zhaoyun's full name.
Hearing that, Mo Zhaoyun laughed and looked at Gong Wan’er. At this time, Gong Wan’er stopped coughing, he looked at Mo Zhaoyun and asked angrily: "You're still laughing?"
"Xiao'er, if only you had been like this the entire time. From yesterday to now, I feel that you have been keeping away from me." Mo Zhaoyun retracted his smile, and looked at Gong Wan’er with a face full of gentleness.
Gong Wan’er pushed Mo Zhaoyun, stood up, and sat on the sofa. He said partially: "What did you say?"
Mo Zhaoyun laughed, sat by his side, placed both hands on her shoulders and said: "It's alright, take it slow." He also didn't want to give Gong Wan’er too much pressure.
