Accidentally Married to the Big Shot

Chapter 173: Chapter 173: Want to Have a Child?

Zhou Yuan didn’t care who he was thinking about in his heart, she still passed her mobile phone to him. “Look, it’s this song.”

On her own account, Zhou Yuan always sang Cantonese classic old songs, usually getting tens or hundreds of thousands of likes, but she sang “Flowing Upstream” yesterday, and the likes soared to several million.

Gu Cheng took a look.

When Zhou Yuan filmed the video, she only showed her body and chin, her face wasn’t visible, and sometimes she’d wear a veil—unless someone was very familiar with her, they wouldn’t know it was her.

In his memory, Zhou Yuan was the type of girl who was sweet and naive, even if she loved to sing, it would be pop songs—sweet and catchy. Unexpectedly, Zhou Yuan could sing such a song so beautifully.

Her voice seemed deliberately lowered, slightly husky, bringing out the undulating sentiment in the song.

He couldn’t help but praise her, “Really nice, you’re very talented.”

Better than the person who sang it originally, mainly because it had spirit.

Then he became addicted to listening, sitting aside, after finishing this one, he moved on to others.

Seeing him like this, Zhou Yuan couldn’t help but smile.

…

Gu Wei was still sitting on the balcony in front.

Alone.

A doctor came over for a checkup in the sanatorium and saw him sitting there alone, couldn’t help asking in English, “Why are you sitting here by yourself?”

Gu Wei replied, “My wife hasn’t allowed me into the room yet.”

“But you’re a patient.”

“I’m almost better now, just a normal husband.”

The doctor chuckled, also realizing that he shouldn’t be interrupting the married couple’s private romance.

He asked if Gu Wei had taken his medication?

Gu Wei said he had, so the doctor just advised him to rest well and not to catch a cold.

Not long after the doctor left, Su Meixi came out.

She heard what Gu Wei had said to the doctor, and she felt both annoyed and amused.

“When did I ever say you couldn’t come in?” Su Meixi asked.

Gu Wei looked at her, “You didn’t say it, but I was afraid of making you angry.”

She couldn’t help but laugh.

Much of her anger subsided, she walked over and pushed him inside, saying as she pushed, “Look at you, out here in the sea breeze, you’ve even blown your nose runny. Hurry back to the room.”

Gu Wei wrapped his hands behind her, resting them on her hands.

She didn’t speak until she pushed him into the room and saw him sitting on the bed, then she said, “How did you get someone’s hand all red?”

Gu Wei looked at her, smiling.

It made him happy that Su Meixi could be jealous.

But he didn’t know what to say.

“Would you squeeze my hand?” she said again.

He pulled her hand and held it gently.

“Use some strength, how can you make it red without force?”

He really listened to her and used more force.

Her eyes suddenly turned red.

“You must have been in a lot of pain then, otherwise you wouldn’t have made someone’s hand red.”

Gu Wei’s heart softened, then he hugged her, “It’s okay now, I’m almost better.”

“Are you? Get down and lie down, let me give you a massage.”

Gu Wei asked, “Didn’t you do that this morning?”

“Massaging more will help you recover sooner.”

“But your hand…”

“My hand isn’t red, I have to make up for what I owed you before.”

…

Gu Cheng was going back to Feng City.

He, the president of a large corporation, had been away for almost a month, like a ship without a helmsman.

Gu Wei and Su Meixi also persuaded him to go back.

Gu Cheng was used to strategizing and wasn’t good at giving care in person, so staying here was a waste of time. Besides, now that Gu Wei had Su Meixi, there was no worry that the care wouldn’t be meticulous.

Originally, they had thought of taking Gu Wei back to the country, but considering the strain of a several-hours-long flight, it seemed better to stay in this sanatorium.

Because Gu Wei liked the sea breeze here, and so did Su Meixi.

Although Feng City is near the sea, Su Meixi had spent her childhood and adolescence busily studying, without truly enjoying the sea.

Here, it was more like a holiday, something that could make them relax.

Gu Cheng went back, but Zhou Yuan stayed.

Zhou Yuan’s reason was that her house was too quiet; when Gu Cheng was at work, she was alone at home. Since she got married, she had hardly contacted her classmates, and friends were few.

She might as well stay here to watch over Gu Wei and keep Su Meixi company.

Gu Cheng didn’t force her to return, respecting her choice.

The car to pick up Gu Cheng arrived, Su Meixi pushed Gu Wei to the entrance of the sanatorium to see him off, and Zhou Yuan followed as well.

Gu Cheng reluctantly looked at his younger brother, “Take good care of yourself, I’ll come back to pick you up after you’re better.”

Gu Wei nodded, then waved to him, “You take care as well.”

Gu Cheng said to Su Meixi, “You’ve worked hard.”

“It’s my duty, not hard.”

Lastly, he looked at Zhou Yuan, “Are you really not coming back with me?”

Zhou Yuan smiled, “You go back by yourself, when I’ve had enough here, I’ll naturally go back.”

Gu Cheng walked over, kissed her forehead, then admonished her, “Then you take good care here, don’t wander off, and don’t cause trouble.”

Zhou Yuan pouted, “Don’t treat me like a child, I’m not a kid.”

Gu Cheng got into the car, but Zhou Yuan stood still, staring in that direction for a long time.

Su Meixi teased her, “You obviously can’t bear to leave, so why not go back with him?”

Zhou Yuan laughed, “Distance makes the heart grow fonder.”

“Haven’t you told him about your thing yet?”

“Not yet, I’ll tell him when I go back to the country,” Zhou Yuan said.

Su Meixi couldn’t quite understand—such a big issue, why not tell Gu Cheng?

But thinking it over, although Zhou Yuan looked simple and careless on the surface, she actually had her own mind…

…

“What’s up with Zhou Yuan? Is she hiding something from big brother?” Back in the room, Gu Wei asked Su Meixi.

Su Meixi said, “What do you think?”

Gu Wei laughed, making an excuse, “The doctor said I should not strain my brain.”

Su Meixi criticized, “Two big straightforward men.”

“Zhou Yuan is not as lively as before, she’s lost a little weight too,” Gu Wei said.

“Yeah, if you don’t eat every day, how can you not lose weight?”

“Why doesn’t she eat?”

“Maybe she just doesn’t feel like eating,” said Su Meixi.

Gu Wei didn’t think much of it, he held Su Meixi’s hand, looking at her blankly with a smile.

That startled Su Meixi—his expression really seemed like post-stroke dementia.

If that were the case, his recovery would take even longer.

But fortunately, after a while, he returned to a normal expression, “You’re really beautiful.”

“Isn’t this the first day you’ve known me, only now you realize I’m beautiful?” she said shyly.

“I was thinking, what if we had children, what would they be like.”

“You’re thinking about having children while your body hasn’t even recovered?”

Gu Wei stroked her face, his expression a little sad, “During that time when I couldn’t move, hear, or see, I thought about a lot of things. Back then, I wondered, what would you do if I died? Or if I died when we had children, would you struggle raising them…”
