After Shangguan Yu had prepared the meal and everything, she sat on the sofa and waited for Fu Siye to return. When she was waiting for him, she repeatedly thought about how she should open her mouth to talk about this matter. Although she had started to think about it after coming back from the hospital, she felt that it was not good to simply say this.
Hence, she had been thinking about how to say it in a better way.
By the time she had decided what to say, it was already past mealtime. In the first few years of their marriage, he had promised to come back for dinner. If he didn’t come back at mealtime, she would call and urge him. After that, she didn’t call again. But she had such an important matter to discuss with him today, so she naturally had to call and ask him.
“Siye, where are you? Are you reaching home soon?”
Fu Siye wanted to say that he was taking care of Gu Lingyin in the hospital and would not be going back today, but he thought that this would agitate her, so he said, “I’m busy. I won’t be going back tonight.”
If it were any other time, Shangguan Yu would have hung up without saying anything. However, she was especially anxious to see him today and talk to him. This was because this was the child she had been looking forward to for so many years. She wanted to do so many things for it.
This overflowing feeling could not be suppressed.
“Can I trouble you to spare an hour? I have something important to discuss with you. If you can’t come back, I can go to the company to look for you. It only takes an hour, no, half an hour!” She couldn’t wait to ask him about this tomorrow. She wanted to ask him today. She wanted to know what he planned and how she was going to arrange her future.
Fu Siye frowned. “What’s so important?”
“I want to talk to you in person.”
Fu Siye glanced at the unconscious Gu Lingyin. “We’ll talk tomorrow. There’s no time now.”
He couldn’t think of anything important that Shangguan Yu could talk about. Her social circle was too small, and it was impossible for her to have any urgent and important matters that had to be discussed immediately.
After a moment of silence, Shangguan Yu said, “If there’s no way to meet, we can talk over the phone. Give me some time.”
“Alright, go ahead.”
“I want to ask you what you plan to do with our relationship. If I have a child, will you be a good father? Will you treat the child well? Will we be able to live like I told you before?”
Fu Siye: “…”
He knew that she wouldn’t have anything important to talk to him about right now, but since she was so insistent on talking about it now, it made him feel that it should be something important.
Unexpectedly, she asked such a hypothetical question!
Was it necessary for her to talk to him now?
“Shangguan Yu, are you sick?” To her, such a thing was considered an extremely urgent matter! Previously, she had insisted on talking to him in person!
Shangguan Yu was stunned by his words. She had thought of all sorts of possible answers that he could give, but she did not expect him to say that she was sick…
She was stunned for a while.
“Alright, even if I’m sick, please answer my question seriously. This question is very important to me, even more important than your urgent business! Please think carefully and answer me honestly!” Shangguan Yu was afraid that he would be angry and feel that she was looking for trouble for no reason, so she deliberately emphasized that his answer was very important to her.
“I won’t answer such a hypothetical question!”
Shangguan Yu fell silent again. This was because his reaction was completely different from what she had imagined. She could not use the conversation plan she had thought of.
