When Gu Weiwei smelled the sour scent, she no longer felt nauseous and started to feel hungry.
She had barely eaten lunch and she did not stop eating the moment she sat down.
“If only the soup was a bit more spicy.”
Jolin put the bag of vinegar and chilli on the table and watched her add them in.
Yuan Meng took a bite of her food and put down the chopsticks. She decided to go out and find food later.
“They say that children are sweet, but you are so jealous[1], adding extra vinegar. What are you pregnant with?” she said as she sized up her belly curiously.
Although the doctor said to be careful, the obvious pregnancy symptoms meant that the baby was growing normally.
If there was really a problem, there would not have been such a strong reaction.
Gu Weiwei did not have a full meal until now, and before this she had started to have morning sickness.
She ate a large portion of rice and drank up the entire bowl of sour and spicy soup.
Then she drank a cup of Lemon Water.
“Oh yes, make some adjustments to the filming plan starting tomorrow. Work starts at eight in the morning and finishes at seven in the evening.”
Filming was important, but the child in her belly was more important.
The doctor had stressed repeatedly that she must not work too hard these days, so she had to cut down her working hours and not wake up early like before.
“Okay, I will inform them later.” Jolin nodded and said, “We will follow your arrangements for the time being. If you feel any discomfort, call off the filming. Your health is the most important thing now.”
“I know, I just need your help,” Gu Weiwei said helplessly.
“Also, from now on, you are not allowed to stand or walk around excessively,” Yuan Meng said and then said to Jolin, “Get someone to buy a more comfortable chair tomorrow, we can’t use the folding chair at the site.”
“Okay, I will ask someone to buy it tomorrow morning.” Jolin agreed.
Gu Weiwei checked the time and told them, “It is getting late, I need to rest now, you can go home too.”
Jolin packed up the table and left.
Gu Weiwei washed her face and saw Yuan Meng still lying on her sofa.
“Anything else?”
“From today onwards, I will share the same room with you.” Yuan Meng yawned and said with her eyes closed, “The one in your belly is too expensive. If you don’t take good care of it, Fu Hanzheng will come and find me later. I can’t afford it.”
Gu Weiwei understood that she was just worried that she would be alone, because if something happened or she fell, no one would be around her.
“You don’t need to sleep on the sofa, do you?”
“The sofa is good, I can’t sleep on your bed. If I accidentally bump into your stomach, I will feel guilty.” Yuan Meng folded the blanket and waved at her. “If you need anything, just say it. I am going to sleep now.”
Gu Weiwei switched off the light, went back to bed and got so excited that she could not fall asleep.
She touched her belly and prayed that the child would be healthy, so that she could share the surprise with Fu Hanzheng next week.
At the beginning, he had been so against having a child, but she truly could not imagine how he would feel after knowing that they had conceived a child.
But when she thought of how much she had not been paying attention to her health these days, she felt both glad and worried.
When she was ready to get pregnant, she did not get pregnant, but when she had not thought about getting pregnant, she got pregnant.
Yuan Meng was right. The baby came when it wanted to.
[1] Vinegar is a reference for jealousy. So if someone is eating vinegar or looking like vinegar, they are jealous.
