This scene feels inexplicably familiar.
Xia Yangyang almost blurted it out instinctively.
But when Xia Yangyang ca to her senses, she realized that her instinct should have been to push him away.
Why did lying in Gu Qichen’s embrace feel so natural?
Why did saying "good morning" feel as though she had said it countless tis before?
Xia Yangyang herself was stunned.
She stared at Gu Qichen with her innocent, wide eyes.
Gu Qichen’s expression didn’t change at all.
He simply lowered his head and kissed Xia Yangyang lightly on her forehead.
His voice was raspy yet natural: "Good morning."
Xia Yangyang felt that if she pushed Gu Qichen away in this atmosphere, she would seem like she’d gone mad.
So, Xia Yangyang lay still in Gu Qichen’s arms without moving.
Then, she simply flipped over, pretending to be half-asleep.
And continued to sleep...
Gu Qichen had long seen through Xia Yangyang’s little act.
Her burning red ears had already betrayed her.
Gu Qichen’s lips curved slightly, and then he got up to get dressed.
Xia Yangyang lay with her back to Gu Qichen, eyes shut tight.
But she could still clearly hear the rustling sounds of him getting dressed.
When Gu Qichen finished dressing and went into the bathroom, Xia Yangyang finally opened her eyes.
She let out a long sigh of relief.
Every morning felt like sneaking around like a thief.
Xia Yangyang felt like she could barely keep up the charade anymore.
She quickly got up as well.
The production crew had just delivered breakfast, leaving it right outside.
Xia Yangyang brought the food containers inside.
Xia Ye was already awake too.
It was a rare mont that the three of them sat down together to have breakfast.
When cleaning up after the al, Xia Yangyang saw the container of dried strawberries on the table.
They were a gift from Xingxing to Shao Tiantian.
Xia Yangyang sighed, opened the box, and tried one of the dried strawberries.
Sour and sweet at the sa ti, the flavor wasn’t bad.
After a few days on Cloud Cliff Mountain,
Xia Yangyang had already gotten used to the task patterns here.
It was always just a matter of finding so creative way to make you search for ingredients.
For instance, this morning’s task was to head into the mountains to dig up matsutake mushrooms.
But as soon as Xia Yangyang got the task card, her stomach started feeling uncomfortable.
She hadn’t even stepped out of the tulou yet,
when Xia Yangyang suddenly held onto the door fra and started dry heaving.
"Yangyang, are you feeling unwell?"
Lu Yao was standing next to Xia Yangyang and asked with concern when he saw her in discomfort.
Gu Qichen also walked over: "What’s wrong? Where do you feel uncomfortable?"
Xia Yangyang wasn’t sure herself, she just felt an intense wave of nausea overwhelm her.
But she had felt perfectly fine earlier that morning.
Li Wenwen, upon seeing Xia Yangyang vomiting, seed to realize sothing: "Yangyang, did you eat sothing bad?"
He Qiming, on the other hand, teased from the side: "Could it be that there’s another little one on the way?"
He Qiming was only joking,
but everyone suddenly had an epiphany and started taking him seriously.
The concerned gazes turned into curious, gossipy stares.
Lu Yao asked, "Yangyang, could it actually be true?"
Xia Yangyang couldn’t handle those kinds of looks.
She hurriedly waved her hands and said, "No, absolutely not!"
But everyone’s expressions remained suggestive: "Even if it’s true, it’s a good thing! With you and President Gu’s amazing genes, not having another one would be a waste. If it’s a little sister for Xia Ye, that’d be even better!"
Why did Xia Yangyang feel that the more she explained, the more gossipy everyone beca?
She turned her gaze to Gu Qichen.
No matter what, Gu Qichen had to know the truth.
How could she possibly be pregnant?
