80s Wife Is Sweet and Sassy - Chapter 69

Chapter 69 – Eight weeks of pregnancy (2)

After Xu Bilian took the supplements, she sat down in the lobby to have a rest. She also held the checklist and the medical record book written by the doctor in her hand. She looked solemn and also a bit happy.

She had to think about how she would tell her family about this matter.

As soon as Gu Ye entered the hospital lobby, he saw Xu Bilian was sitting in a daze. He remained calm and sat beside her. Then he grabbed the checklist, medical record book, and supplements. Xu Bilian was startled. When she saw it was Gu Ye, her expression suddenly changed drastically.

“You… Why are you here?”

Xu Bilian’s heart was very flustered. After all, she and Gu Ye had not divorced yet. If Gu Ye made a fuss about this matter, her waigong1 would beat her to death.

1waigong (外公) : maternal grandfather.

Gu Ye looked at the checklists and the medical record book. The corner of his mouth turned upwards, he was very satisfied with this result. She was eight weeks pregnant. It seemed that this damned couple had already hooked up long ago.

“Don’t panic!”

Gu Ye twitched the corners of his mouth and smiled, which made Xu Bilian become even more nervous. A cold sweat appeared on her forehead. She could only look at him helplessly as he took out a camera and took pictures of the checklist, medical record book, and the supplements.

“What are you going to do, Gu Ye?” Xu Bilian asked him in a low voice and snatched back the checklist and medical record book.

“It’s very simple, you just have to talk with my old man about the divorce, and also your waigong’s side too. Just say that you and I can’t get along and have to divorce.” Gu Ye said.

“Why does that have to be me who says it?” Xu Bilian didn’t want to be the one who said it, she was afraid of being scolded.

Gu Ye sneered and said sarcastically: “Because you are the one who cheated on me, I also have the evidence that you have an affair with Gu Jianshe. Even if you go to court, you can not win, and you will also be in scandal. Now I’ m the prime minister who can hold a boat in his belly2, and have a private discussion with you. At least it will keep your family’s reputation. Don’t be naive!” 

2The prime minister can hold a boat in his belly : is often used to praise a person for being broad-minded and tolerant. It was originally referred to the prime minister Wang Anshi who advocated reform in the Song Dynasty. 

Xu Bilian’s face turned pale. She looked at the camera in Gu Ye’s hand and broke into a cold sweat. The man didn’t frighten her. If she really went to court, she would definitely be beaten to death by her waigong.

“I… I will tell them, please give me some time.”

Xu Bilian lowered her pride, she changed from her usual domineering side and didn’t dare to be pretentious anymore.

“I will give you one week, don’t exceed the time limit!”

Gu Ye sneered coldly, then he got up and left. After he had developed the photos tonight, he will go to Gu Jianshe to get the benefits.

He tried to finish the divorce process in half a month. He didn’t want to wait any longer.

Chu Qiao had been living very comfortably these past two days. He Jihong did not make trouble with her. He Jihong should have gone back to her parents’ home to find Old Madam He for some advice. In fact, the most scheming person in the He family was Old Madam He. He Jihong didn’t even have half of her mother’s shrewdness.

He Jihong did talk to her mother. Old Madam He gave her an idea. “Doesn’t that Chu Qiao have become more beautiful? Then you just have to invite Gu Jianshe to have dinner at your house. All men are the same, they all like the young and the beautiful ones. Just like Chu Qiao’s appearance, Gu Jianshe will definitely like it.”

“But the last time she met Gu Jianshe, he didn’t like her.”

Old Madam He rolled her eyes and looked at her daughter, “Last time, you were not around. How do you know if Chu Qiao has prettied herself or not? Just listen to me, it won’t be wrong. This time it will definitely be successful.”

He Jihong thought for a while and felt that it was reasonable. Only ghosts would know what had happened last time. This little bitch was very pretentious, and she was still a little worried, so she said, “This little bitch has made a lot of trouble and she refuses to marry Gu Jianshe. If this problem happens again, my reputation will be lost.”

“Can’t you just use your brain? The most important thing for a girl is her reputation. As long as it is spread out that Chu Qiao has some relationship with Gu Jianshe, can she still marry others?”

Old Madam He really hated her indecisive daughter and glared at her. But she could not do anything to her. Her son-in-law was also a disappointment. That Chu Yuanzhi only had good appearance but had no skill at all. She got so angry just when she saw him.
