Chapter 809: Chapter 810: Obviously Fuller than Before
It had been three months since they last saw each other, and her belly had already grown so large.
“Darling, I’ve missed you so much…”
Looking at her long-lost friend, Huo Yishan’s face was full of longing.
Gu Qiangwei smiled and reached out to give her a hug of missing her, “I missed you too!”
As the two sisters released each other and looked at her bulging belly, Huo Yishan was both surprised and amazed, “It’s so big now, does walking tire you out?”
“A little bit, but it doesn’t affect normal walking.” The doctor had also said that as it got closer to the later stages of pregnancy, taking walks would be somewhat beneficial for the baby.
So sometimes Gu Qiangwei would still take a walk in the morning, of course, Qin Sijue was almost glued to her side the whole time, following her closely.
However, after returning to Jingcheng, it might not be possible to be inseparable like this, as three months’ worth of affairs had piled up, all waiting for him to deal with upon his return.
During the trip, urgent documents were processed through email, and meetings were held via video conference, but some things would still have to wait until he returned to Dizun to be handled.
“That’s good!”
The two sisters had not seen each other for so long that Huo Yishan had come directly to Jueyuan in a car.
Originally, they were supposed to be received at the Commander Residence by Zhuang Yanyan, but Qin Sijue was worried that upon their return, there would surely be many people flocking to them, so he planned to quietly return to Jueyuan.
However, he miscalculated.
Because just a second before boarding the plane, Gu Qiangwei also made a phone call to Zhuang Yanyan. So when they returned to Jueyuan, Zhuang Yanyan and Qin Guozhong were already sitting there waiting!
“Granddaughter-in-law!”
Upon seeing the two stepping through the door, Zhuang Yanyan in the sofa immediately stood up and walked towards them to receive Gu Qiangwei personally.
Seeing her belly already noticeably protruding, Zhuang Yanyan could feel the presence of the two babies inside even more!
“Grandma.” When she saw Zhuang Yanyan, Gu Qiangwei wasn’t surprised at all and smiled, greeting her.
Zhuang Yanyan was beaming with joy, but Qin Sijue, from the moment he stepped through the door, his face became increasingly gloomy.
It seemed the outside world was better after all, at least they weren’t disturbed by others.
This return to the country immediately rendered their two-person world trivial.
“Come on, sit down and let grandma have a look. Have you gotten thinner?”
Zhuang Yanyan, over eighty years old but still vibrant, helped Gu Qiangwei sit down on the sofa, meticulously examining her from head to toe.
The long-lost affection made Gu Qiangwei’s heart especially warm, and she smiled, “Not at all, I’ve gained twelve pounds!”
Zhuang Yanyan glanced at her, “Silly child, have you forgotten there are two little ones in your belly? Twelve pounds is too thin! Has that guy outside not been taking good care of you?”
As she spoke, she couldn’t help but cast a glance at Qin Sijue sitting on the side with a sullen face.
Gu Qiangwei smiled bashfully, “No, he’s very good to me and takes great care of me.”
“Then how come you’ve gotten thinner?”
“I haven’t gotten thinner.”
“You haven’t gotten thinner, you’re obviously fuller than before.” At that moment, Qin Sijue also spoke up and stood up from the sofa, heading upstairs.
Staring at his retreating back, Gu Qiangwei obviously understood what he meant by ‘fuller’.
But, had she really gotten fuller than before?
She couldn’t help but lower her head to look at her neckline.
At that moment, Huo Yishan could not help but let out a snort of laughter, “Pfft—”
Feeling her friend’s obviously teasing laughter, Gu Qiangwei couldn’t help but pout, “What are you laughing at?”
