The boss of a wealthy family is too clingy, and the beautiful secretary wants to quit
Chapter 375 Hypocrisy
10 month.
The night is silent.
He heard a faint sob and suddenly opened his eyes. He saw An Ran curled up in his arms, her shoulders trembling slightly. The faint and intermittent crying sound came from her.
He was so frightened that he woke up instantly and quickly reached out to turn on the bedside lamp.
The dim light sprinkled softly on Anran's face. She raised her head, with crystal tears still hanging on her eyelashes, about to fall. She looked so pitiful that it made people feel pity for her.
Jiang Huaian's heart couldn't help but tighten.
"Are you having a nightmare?" Jiang Huai asked in a young voice.
An Ran shook her head and buried her face deeper into Jiang Huaian's chest, her tears immediately soaking the collar of his pajamas.
Jiang Huainian felt the wet and hot touch, and his worries grew even more.
He stretched out his arms and gently embraced her, patting her slender shoulders with his palms as if he was soothing a frightened kitten.
He asked in a low voice: "Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
"No...it's just me...I..." An Ran raised her head slightly, looking at him with her tearful eyes, her nose twitching, "I suddenly...really...really want to eat chestnuts."
Jiang Huaian was stunned.
An Ran spoke intermittently: "I was eating it in my dream, and when I woke up, there was nothing in my mouth. I... I couldn't control my sadness... Woo woo woo ~ When I thought about how hypocritical I was, I felt even sadder."
Jiang Huaian felt distressed and a little amused, and gently rubbed the back of her head, "Silly girl."
Then he moved the pillow under Anran's head, pulled out his arm, and prepared to get up.
He smiled and said, "I'll buy it for you."
An Ran grabbed his arm tightly and shook her head, "I just want to eat the steamed kind. There's no such thing in the middle of the night. Don't bother."
"We'll have whatever you want to eat." Jiang Huainian kissed the top of An Ran's head, "I'll buy it for you right away. Don't underestimate my ability to make money."
An Ran nodded slightly and let go of her hand.
She didn't want to be so pretentious, but she just couldn't control the urge to eat it.
After confirming with the chef that there were no chestnuts in the old house, Jiang Huainian drove out in a hurry in his slippers without even changing out of his pajamas.
Two o'clock in the morning.
Jiang Huainian contacted the wholesale agricultural market and asked the boss to steam the chestnuts first. Then, after thinking about it, he asked the boss to steam some other things, such as corn, sweet potatoes, and taro. In short, he steamed whatever was available.
After hanging up the phone, he stepped deeper on the accelerator and the car sped along the empty road.
Finally, the car stopped at the entrance of the wholesale farmers' market.
He walked quickly into the market and found the boss who had prepared for him. In the steamer in front of the boss, steaming chestnuts, corn, sweet potatoes and taro exuded an enticing aroma.
Jiang Huaian didn't say anything extra. He just took out his mobile phone and scanned 10,000 yuan for the boss. Then he quickly packed the ingredients into the bag and turned away.
The boss was still somewhat resentful. In the middle of the night, when the market was still closed, he received a call and immediately asked him to prepare what the gentleman wanted.
He thought he had a big order, but ended up asking for some worthless items.
After seeing the payment record, the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised, he hummed a little tune, swayed his body, pulled down the roller curtain, and went home to catch up on his sleep.
Jiang Huainian carried the heavy bag and quickly returned to the car.
The round trip only takes forty minutes.
An Ran's emotions were almost gone. When she saw Jiang Huainian carrying a bag of hot chestnuts, she felt like he could perform magic.
Jiang Huainian held An Ran's hand and they sat on the sofa together.
The chestnuts had no cuts on them, and looked difficult to peel. An Ran thought that they might be troublesome to eat, and suddenly she didn't want to eat them anymore.
Jiang Huainian tried several times but failed to peel it, so he sat cross-legged on the sofa, watching the video and concentrating on learning how to peel chestnuts.
An Ran looked at Jiang Huainian peeling chestnuts seriously and wanted to laugh for some reason. This man in front of her had trillions of assets and was able to call the wind and rain, but at this moment, he was trying so hard to learn how to peel chestnuts just for her little wish.
This contrast made her feel both funny and touched.
Finally, with Jiang Huainian's unremitting efforts, he successfully peeled a chestnut.
A smile appeared on his face and he immediately reached out and fed it to An Ran's mouth.
An Ran took a light bite, chewing the sweet and soft chestnut. She looked up at Jiang Huainian, her bright eyes full of love and gratitude, as if she had thousands of words to say, but was tightly wrapped in the happiness in her heart.
"Thank you, hubby. It's delicious."
The corners of Jiang Huainian's mouth rose unconsciously, forming a warm arc.
He lowered his head and continued to peel the chestnuts in his hand.
"I'm being too pretentious. I'm sorry to trouble you in the middle of the night." An Ran lowered her eyes and looked at her toes, speaking softly.
Jiang Huainian took out a tissue and wiped his hands, then raised his head and gently pinched An Ran's cheek, his eyes gentle, "You're not being pretentious at all. On the contrary, I'm very happy that you finally want to eat something. You've lost a lot of weight since you got pregnant, and I'm almost heartbroken."
He paused, his eyes becoming somewhat profound, "Thinking about the time when you were pregnant with your first child, I wasn't by your side. I...really regret missing that time."
An Ran gently placed her hand on her belly and said with a smile, "I had almost no morning sickness during my first pregnancy. It might be because you were here and the baby was deliberately tormenting you."
Jiang Huainian frowned seriously, "It's okay to torment me, but why does he keep tormenting you? Wait until he is born, and see if I will spank his little butt."
"If she was as cute as Qianqian, would you be willing to do it?"
"No one can bully you."
Anran smiled, her heart filled with sweetness.
Jiang Huaian continued to peel chestnuts, occasionally looking up at An Ran. An Ran was peeling sweet potatoes, feeding Jiang Huaian a bite and taking a bite herself.
That night, An Ran ate a lot and didn't vomit at all. She slept soundly and contentedly in Jiang Huainian's arms.
-
In the thirteenth week of Anran's pregnancy, morning sickness not only did not decrease, but became more and more severe. It was so severe that she even vomited when drinking water, basically vomiting once every hour. All anti-emetic foods and medicines had no effect on her.
Because An Ran had severe morning sickness, Jiang Huainian did not allow her to go to the studio and asked her to work from home. Jiang Huainian stayed at home with her all the time.
There was still a slight chill in the early autumn morning. Anran squatted in front of the toilet. She vomited so much that her heart palpitated, she felt dizzy, and her legs were weak, not to mention her stomach.
"I'll call a doctor." Jiang Huainian frowned, gently held An Ran's shoulders, and let her lean on his arms.
He reached out and gently wiped the vomit from the corner of An Ran's mouth, his eyes full of heartache. He took a bathrobe and covered An Ran with it, then immediately made a phone call.
An Ran pulled her bathrobe closer, almost kneeling in front of the toilet, and leaned her whole body on Jiang Huainian.
"Wife, the doctor will be here soon. The floor is cold. Rinse your mouth first and then we can go back to bed." Jiang Huainian carried her horizontally to the washstand.
