Chapter 816: Chapter 817: Don’t Do This Again Next Time
It had been eight months, and the doctor had said that she was carrying twins, so there was a very likely chance of a premature birth.
It wasn’t until his low growl that Gu Qiangwei suddenly snapped back to reality, and when she looked up again, the figure walking outside the courtyard wall had already disappeared without a trace.
"I’m here!"
Hearing his urgency, Gu Qiangwei quickly responded.
Not until he heard her voice again, safe and sound through the receiver, did Qin Sijue’s tense heart finally relax a bit, but he was still somewhat worried because of her pause a few seconds earlier, "What happened just now?"
Gu Qiangwei smiled faintly, "It’s nothing, recently there have been thieves around my mom’s place, I saw one just now, so I got distracted for a moment."
Upon hearing this, Qin Sijue frowned, "A thief?"
"Yes, mom says that this area often gets thieves, and just now I saw a suspicious figure and forgot to talk to you."
Qin Sijue sighed in relief, "Don’t do that again."
"Yes!" She admitted her fault obediently, well aware that in her current condition, she was like a ticking time bomb to her family, capable of encountering any situation at any time.
Seeing her nod obediently, Qin Sijue finally smiled in satisfaction and didn’t worry about the thief for the moment.
"I’ll be there soon, hanging up now."
"Okay."
After hanging up the phone, Gu Qiangwei also stood up and left the balcony.
Just as she went downstairs, she saw her mother returning.
After dropping off her son, she had gone to buy a pigeon to make soup for her daughter, which is why she returned so late.
Half an hour later, Qin Sijue indeed arrived, and only after having lunch did he leave with Gu Qiangwei.
Lately, aside from work, he spent almost all his available time beside Gu Qiangwei, fearful she might suddenly go into labor.
"How was it? Was the birthday party a success?"
On the way back, curious about Li Yuan’s birthday party, Gu Qiangwei couldn’t resist asking the man in the driver’s seat.
Qin Sijue’s brows were slightly furrowed, "Not so good."
The answer was unexpected, Gu Qiangwei was taken aback for a moment, then her expression changed, "What happened?"
Qin Sijue turned his head and glanced at her, "Do you know about Yishan and Li Yuan’s affair?"
Gu Qiangwei was slightly stunned, "You mean their fake girlfriend thing?"
"Yes."
"I know, Yishan mentioned it to me."
"It’s blown up."
"What?" Gu Qiangwei exclaimed, her eyes wide.
The deception was exposed!
"What happened?"
"At the birthday party, someone with the surname Ruan revealed their relationship, and also found out Huo Yishan was not a lady of high society but an actress."
Gu Qiangwei was utterly stunned.
Though Yishan was an actress, her identity was far more than merely that of a high society lady.
"What happened then? Didn’t Yishan reveal her true identity?" Thinking that the two had barely pushed their relationship forward a little bit, only for this to happen, Gu Qiangwei couldn’t help but feel anxious for them.
"No."
"Why?"
Qin Sijue turned his head and glanced at his wife again, "Their relationship is fake, and revealing her true identity because of a lie, do you think Yishan would do that?"
"But if she doesn’t come out with it, she and Li Yuan are finished!"
Looking at his wife, who was a bit naive due to her pregnancy brain, Qin Sijue couldn’t help but look at her sympathetically. Taking advantage of the red light, he reached out and touched her smooth hair, "Wife, they were never really together, so how can you say they’re finished?"
Gu Qiangwei paused, then realized that their ’romance’ had been fake from the very start.
