Shen Fanxing felt hungry again at four or five in the afternoon. When she went to the washroom, she bumped into two secretaries gossiping while washing something.
“I never expected CEO Shen’s fiancé to be the CEO of the Bo Consortium…”
“That’s right. She didn’t think in that direction at all. Thinking about Young Master Su from before, why does it feel good to compare him to her?”
“It’s a pity that the threshold of the Bo family is too high. It’s another matter if CEO Shen and the executive can’t grow up… Uh, CEO Shen.”
One of the secretaries noticed Shen Fanxing and the two of them tensed up.
Although she didn’t say much bad things, she still mentioned something sad.
Shen Fanxing nodded and walked to the sink. Her gaze was fixed on the two boxes of fruits.
The secretary immediately handed two boxes of fruits to Shen Fanxing and asked politely, “CEO Shen, do you… want some?”
Shen Fanxing studied it for a while before accepting one of the boxes.
“Thank you.”
“…”
“…”
They were just trying to be polite. After all, she was the dignified CEO Shen. With her status, she would definitely be too embarrassed to eat their food. Moreover, how could she take a fancy to commoners like them? If anything happened, they might be reprimanded again.
Even if his superior gave him face, taking one or two was already the limit.
In the end, she took the entire box away.
Shen Fanxing returned to the office and started eating the box of fruits.
The first time she took a bite, she felt that this was probably one of the most delicious things in the world.
As she dealt with her work, she ate. Unknowingly, she had finished the box of cherry tomatoes. It was about time to get off work.
When she returned, she took Chu Yi’s car.
As she had eaten a box of cherry tomatoes in the afternoon, it might have whetted her appetite. Recently, there were a few more dishes with strong flavors on the table. Shen Fanxing ate another two bowls of rice.
Ji Fengmian couldn’t stand it anymore and turned to look at her. “Have you been possessed by Zhu Shen recently? Can you eat and sleep?”
Shen Fanxing paused and said, “I… am Auntie Sun’s cook.”
“Are you a good sleeper or is the bed here soft and comfortable?”
“Not bad.”
“…”
–
At 10pm, Shen Fanxing came out of the shower to sleep.
In the end, Xu Qingzhi called. “Shen Fanxing, you heartless little bastard. You left me alone in the Bo family!”
Shen Fanxing replied, “Are you alright?”
“You’ve indeed forgotten about me!” Xu Qingzhi’s angry voice rang in Shen Fanxing’s ears.
“I don’t care. I’ll be there soon. Remember to open the door to welcome me later.”
Shen Fanxing was shocked. “You’re coming? Now?”
“Yes, immediately.”
“Then I’ll call the guard. Have you eaten?”
“I haven’t had supper yet!” Xu Qingzhi snapped.
Shen Fanxing was speechless. “Do you want some hot and sour noodles?”
“Eat!”
“I’ll go to the kitchen to prepare.”
After hanging up, she called the guard to inform him. She put on a jacket and left the room.
–
In the kitchen, Shen Fanxing had found a recipe online and was making hot and sour noodles. Not long after, Xu Qingzhi appeared in the kitchen with her nose covered.
Shen Fanxing was choking on chili.
“Wow, I’m choking to death. Are you done?”
“Wait a minute, I’ll be done soon.” Shen Fanxing covered her nose and turned to look at Xu Qingzhi.
“Okay… Cough, cough… Do you want to consider wearing a gas mask?”
“Yes… I’ll buy one next time.”
“…” Some people couldn’t understand the world of foodies!
Ten minutes later, two bowls of hot and sour noodles were ready.
The two women sat in the dining room in the middle of the night, chatting and eating.
“You’ve been so heartless these few days. You said you wouldn’t meet me and you won’t. I didn’t expect you to be a mother who doesn’t have her own opinions.”
Shen Fanxing took a bite of the noodles and said nonchalantly, “Listen to Mommy.”
“You’re really heartless!”
Shen Fanxing remained silent and buried her head in her food.
“Qingzhi.”
“Yes?”
Xu Qingzhi looked up and saw Shen Fanxing staring at her with a serious expression.
“Why are you suddenly so serious? What’s wrong?”
Shen Fanxing fiddled with the noodles with her chopsticks and stared at Xu Qingzhi.
“I think I’m pregnant.”
Xu Qingzhi understood immediately!
“You went to check?!”
Shen Fanxing shook her head and said, “I’m being watched by the media now. How can I go for a checkup? But I can sleep and eat now. My taste is obviously much better than before. Look at this. I rarely ate this in the past. I ate the oranges you gave me. Today, I went to the washroom and stole a box of cherry tomatoes from my secretary… Qingzhi, this… is abnormal…”
Xu Qingzhi picked up the bowl and drank two mouthfuls of soup without caring about her image. Then, she placed the bowl on the dining table before standing up and pulling Shen Fanxing away.
“Qingzhi, what are you doing?”
–
In the washroom on the first floor.
“You… actually brought such a thing with you. You…”
Shen Fanxing glanced at Xu Qingzhi’s stomach before looking at the pregnancy test kit in her hand. Her expression was indescribable.
“What nonsense are you thinking? This is specially prepared for you.”
“…”
“I could tell that you’ve been acting strangely recently. I specially prepared this for you before I came today, just in case!”
Shen Fanxing lowered her head to read the instructions. Upon hearing Xu Qingzhi’s words, she picked out the keywords accurately.
“What do you mean, just in case?”
“Uh…”
The smile on Xu Qingzhi’s face froze. “Anyway, hurry up and go in to check.”
Shen Fanxing was pushed into the bathroom.
Five minutes later, Shen Fanxing walked out with a pregnancy test kit.
Xu Qingzhi hurried over and asked, “How is it? How is it?”
Shen Fanxing showed the results to Xu Qingzhi.
“Two… two?!” Xu Qingzhi’s eyes widened and she almost screamed in excitement!
“Shh…” Shen Fanxing hushed him.
Then, she slowly placed her hand on her chest and watched as Xu Qingzhi almost cried.
“Qingzhi, I’m really pregnant!”
Her and Ah Chuan’s child…
“Yes! Congratulations! Congratulations!”
Xu Qingzhi looked at Shen Fanxing excitedly. She was happier than when she found out that she was pregnant.
That was true. When she found out that she was pregnant, her feelings were indescribable.
Happy, sad, excited, timid, lost, escaping…
But Fanxing was different. After going through so much, she had finally met the right person. She was genuinely happy for her.
The two of them hugged each other excitedly in the washroom. No matter how much they tried to suppress their voices, there was still a huge commotion.
Knock knock. Ji Fengmian’s cold voice sounded. “What are you doing in the washroom in the middle of the night?”
