I opened the door, and Lin Ya was already in the room. Seeing me coming in, she spread her hands and said, "I saw your car just now. I thought you arrived before me, but I didn't see you at Ms. Sun's place. I was just wondering." .”

Sun Ning was leaning on the head of the bed, wearing home cotton clothes, putting his hands on his protruding abdomen, and smiling at me with his lips pursed.She is much plumper than before, and her temperament has become softer, which almost makes me feel strange.

Facing this motherly woman in front of me, I was a little at a loss. After putting down the gift, I stood by the bed in a daze.

Before I could open my mouth, she smiled at me: "I received the jewelry you gave me. It's so big, it dazzles people's eyes when you take it out, and it's so beautiful. Let Sister Yan take care of it for me for now. After giving birth, I will lose weight. I will definitely choose a good-looking suit to match it."

Her tone was relaxed and cheerful, still the familiar Sun Ning.For some reason, I quietly breathed a sigh of relief and raised a smile: "Just as long as you like it."

Sun Ning nodded and looked up at Lin Ya: "I would like to thank Ms. Lin, the person she sent to take care of me almost confessed me as a national treasure. I didn't suffer any crimes along the way, and the quality of sleep was better than a few days ago. Quite a few."

Lin Ya smiled and declined: "Miss Sun is too polite, we will be friends from now on, so there is no need to be so estranged with me. And Jun Yan asked me to help, I have to let him feel at ease, right?"

After exchanging a few pleasantries like this, her cell phone rang, so she went out to answer the phone, and thoughtfully left me and Sun Ning in the room.

"Toshihiko, you've lost weight."

I smiled, pulled up a chair and sat down: "Vanity Fair, right and wrong place, I'm not coming back to retire, I'm sorry for this place if I don't lose two catties."

Her expression was a little sad: "It's a pity that I can't help you."

"No, just take care of yourself."

I originally wanted to pat the back of Sun Ning's hand to comfort her, but her hand was too close to her chubby belly, which made me stop halfway, for fear of hurting her.Sun Ning saw my clumsiness, and his eyelashes curled up with a smile: "How can I be so fragile? It's just a touch, it's okay."

I glanced at her belly in awe, and said, "Be careful."

"You are too careful." She stretched out her hand to me, "I want to get out of bed and walk around, help me?"

I hurriedly helped Sun Ning up, walked around the room with her, and told some interesting things to make her happy.After walking and stopping for a while, she stood by the window with her back propped up, and I asked, "Will it be hard for you to keep your stomach up like this every day?"

"I can't say whether it's good or bad. I'm lucky. The baby is healthy, and I don't have any serious reactions. Even if I feel uncomfortable, I had Sister Yan a few months ago, and now you and Ms. Lin, the doctor is also focusing on taking care of me...Since Deciding to have a child must be hard work."

Sun Ning paused, then smiled wryly: "No way, pregnancy is just such a process. Father can choose to let go, but no matter how painful it is, every mother must go through it."

"Do you remember what I told you before I left City S?"

She looked up at me, and I said softly: "I said, give me a little time, so that I can do something for you."

Xu Yuzhong has regarded the Xu family as his future property since he was a child, and the deep-rooted concept cannot be dissipated in just a few years.

After he was kicked out, the old man suffered a great blow, so he easily let his mother take power.Now that his mother intends to give up the position of executive director, I'm afraid he has already scratched his head and figured it out, otherwise he wouldn't have made some small tricks secretly, making Lin Ya know that the Xu family is in turmoil.

However, the relatives of the Xu family know how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages best. Even if he is justified, it is difficult for a person who dares to attack his own brother to regain their trust.

But what if he had a wife and kids?For men, family often represents "reconciliation", "matureness" and "letting go of the past", which plays an important role in improving impression points.

What's more, Sun Ning's belly is not only Xu Yuzhong's offspring, but also the first great-grandson of the old man.All it takes is to create a suitable opportunity, and this child will definitely gain his special favor, and maybe he will be well trained as a new heir.

The Xu family is undoubtedly a pit of fire, but if Sun Ning insists on marrying Xu Yuzhong, I am willing to endure the nausea and take the hot potato and deal with her with all my heart.

Needless to say, I lowered my head and looked at her: "If you want to marry Xu Yuzhong, I can do it for you now. You have helped me for so long, and it is time to allow me to pay for you."

"Toshihiko, sometimes you... are so serious that it makes people sad."

After a long time, she said: "I accept the necklace and ring you bought for me, and accept your care, because I know you want to treat me well, and I have a clear conscience. But if you want to 'pay for me' , I can only say that I, Sun Ning, am by no means the kind of person who gives a helping hand just to get someone's gratitude."

"I am clear about every choice I make. When I saved you, I knew that I would spend time and energy on it in the future. No one forced me, but I still did it. Why do you think I tried my best to help you rebuild? Why? Encourage you to live again? Because, as your friend, I don't want to see you destroyed from now on!"

"During this period of pregnancy, I not only felt the pain and inconvenience, but also got the joy of having a child and a continuation of blood. Just like taking care of you for three years, I invested something in you, But at the same time, I got a sincere friend."

Sun Ning looked at me with bright and clear eyes: "Jun Yan, you have already repaid me. Besides me, Dr. Wu, Sister Yan, Rui Rui, and all the people around you who treat you well, you also treat them sincerely. Don't do it again." Feeling owed to whom – you don’t owe anyone.”

The green leaves whirled outside the window, and spots of light fell on her through the glass window, and her cheeks also showed a different kind of brilliance, gentle, peaceful, and full of hope.

"I don't need you to do anything. I don't care if I marry into Xu's family or not. I just hope that the baby will be born smoothly and that he will grow up safely. As for the other things, whether you are smart or not, whether you are good-looking or not, whether you have achieved anything—I am in a hurry now. It's useless, let's worry about future problems later! The child lives happily all his life, so it's not in vain for his mother to suffer so much and bring him into the world."

After a moment of silence, I said with difficulty: "Thank you, Sun Ning...you will definitely be a good mother."

"I hope so, I'm studying." Sun Ning blinked playfully, "I'm going to let the baby recognize you as a godfather, and prepare the red envelopes for the New Year first."

"The baby hasn't been born yet, so you're already thinking about getting a red envelope for New Year's greetings."

She stroked her stomach with a smile, her eyes were sweet: "Did you hear that, baby? From now on, your godfather will ask for pocket money. If he dares not give it, you can cry loudly for him."

I couldn't help smiling, the heart that was tossing in pain in the flaming magma seemed to have taken a dose of tranquilizer, and gradually calmed down.

Lin Yayi was playing with her mobile phone at the end of the aisle, I nodded to her, slightly surprised: "Why are you still here?"

"I'm waiting for you, let's have a chat." She entered the elevator with me, "Junyan, are you okay today?"

I apologized and said, "I will take my brother to the airport later."

She nodded: "What about that night?"

"I have to go to Song Cheng."

Lin Ya snorted, the elevator door closed, I pressed the button, and looked at her from the reflective mirror: "You seem to hate me being with him? You obviously liked little models at the beginning."

"He's not a real little model." Lin Ya curled her lips, "I thought he didn't have any background and it was easy to deal with, so I suggested you play with him, who knew it would be so difficult. If we could expect today, I No matter what you say, I won’t let you touch him, this person is too dangerous. Oh, it’s all my fault!”

When the elevator went down, there was a slight sense of weightlessness. I smiled: "Don't worry, I will solve my own problems. Sun Ning, please take care of me, I may be very busy recently."

"No problem, it's easy."

After Lin Ya finished speaking, she took my arm, her eyes were big and round, and she smiled like an innocent girl: "Then are you free in two days? Can I make an appointment in advance? Give me a face, My big words have already been uttered, we have been friends for decades, and I will not even be able to call out people, it will be embarrassing!"

"I'm not sure about that either."

After all, I will not be in the capital soon.I was about to refuse, but I swallowed the words: "How about tomorrow night? How about in Dulin?"

"Okay!" Lin Yaxin said happily, "I'll bring a few friends over here, don't let me go temporarily!"

I didn't even say no, and then said: "You can come earlier, I have something I want you to pass on to Yang Chen. But don't give it to him right away, it will take about two or three weeks... I think, by then he will personally Come pick it up."

"Okay." She winked at me and said with a smile, "If you make it so mysterious, I'd really like to know what it is."

I also laughed: "Trust me, you will never be curious."

The elevator door opened, Lin Ya said goodbye to me, and we walked in different directions.
