"Where did you go? I thought you didn't want me again." Gu Xiyan's tearful and blurry eyes looked pitiful.

  Shang Yi put down the cup and gently patted Gu Xiyan's back to comfort her. "Silly girl, how could I not want you? I just couldn't sleep so I went downstairs to get a glass of water. Darling, do you want some?"

  Gu Xiyan shook her head and nodded again.

  After drinking some water, Shang Xi got back into bed.

  The light was still on. Gu Xiyan was so startled that she lost the meaning of sleep. So, the two began to chat intermittently.

  "Ah! You scared me!" Gu Xiyan held Shang Yi Qi tightly, as if she was hugging a big teddy bear. Shang Yi Qi also let her do so.

  "Baby, don't think nonsense. If you want to think, think about something more serious." Shang Qi leaned over and kissed the smooth, round forehead of Gu Xiyan, a warm smile spreading across his face.

  "What's going on." Gu Xiyan was puzzled. Her beautiful eyes gazed at Shang Yueqi's sharp jawline, and the desk lamp's light made her eyes feel slightly sore.

  Shang Yiqi turned off the desk lamp and hugged Gu Xiyuan, asking tentatively, "Baby, are you willing to have a child with me now?"

  Shang Yi's large palm suddenly covered Gu Xiyan's abdomen, gently stroking it from time to time. Gu Xiyan's eyes fluttered slightly as she asked, "Are you willing?"

  In the past, she would never have wanted to bear children with someone she didn't love. But now... she has fallen in love with him. And he also promised that he will be hers alone.

  Child, a word that warms the heart just thinking about it. A child, like Yan Er, starts small and grows up to be more and more lovely and endearing. Just thinking about this, Gu Xiyan couldn't help but smile slightly.

  Is it their child? Will he grow up like him or her? Even if he hasn't fallen in love with himself yet, that's okay. As long as they can be together forever.

  Still not possible? Gu Xiyan's silence raised a glimmer of hope in Shang Yueqi's heart, only to be shattered in an instant. Was she still unwilling to have a child with him? No matter, no matter. One day she would be willing. Shang Yueqi comforted himself.

  "Start. If you'll always be good to me, then... let's have a baby! " Gu Xiyan's delicate small hand covered Shang Qi's large palm, her words filled with joy and anticipation.

  Shang Yi couldn't describe the shock in his heart at this moment. He had thought that all hope was lost. But she told him with such a soft, gentle and warm tone. She was willing. Willing to have a child for him. A child that only belonged to them.

  "Baby, is that true?" Shang Qi was shocked and then overjoyed. He fiercely kissed Gu Xiyan's red lips several times before he couldn't help but laugh foolishly.

  Gu Xiyan had never seen such a reaction from Shang Yue before, but his response only made her more convinced that he cared about her. Otherwise, with his personality, why would he be so happy just because she was willing to bear children for him?

  Shang Yi thought for a moment, but then suddenly flipped on the light switch with a "click". He then picked up Gu Xi Yan and excitedly spun around in circles inside the room. "Baby, you agreed! You agreed!"

  "Stop it. It's late at night. Don't be silly." Gu Xiyan was deeply moved in her heart, but the words that came out of her mouth were not very polite.

  Shang Yi heard this and wasn't unhappy at all. On the contrary, he laughed even more happily and said: "Baby is willing to have a baby with me, how can I not be happy?"

  "Let me down! I'm dizzy." Gu Xiyan was indeed a bit disoriented from the spinning, and she muttered another sentence.

  Shang Yi stopped upon seeing her state and carefully put Gu Xi Yan back on the bed. "Baby, you're really good."

  "You're doing well too." Gu Xiyan slightly tilted her head and met Shang Yue's eyes.

  After turning off the lights, Shang Yi still wanted to move around in bed. However, Gu Xiyan quickly stopped him. "Yi, we have work tomorrow, let's get some rest early."

  Shang Yi rarely spoke nicely this time. After responding to Gu Xiyan with a "darling, listen to you", he really became honest and obedient.

  In the morning, little girl saw her father and mother sticking together tightly when she woke up. She couldn't understand how her father and mother became so intimate in just one night. The little guy asked: "Dad, why are you so good with mom again?"

  "It's all thanks to Yan'er." Shang Xi Kai gently opened his arms and hugged Xiao Yatou, kissing her cheek.

  "Mummy also wants fragrance." Seeing her father and mother seemingly very happy, the little guy also became delighted.

  Gu Xiyan heard Xiao Yatou's request and walked over to the father-daughter pair, tiptoeing up to gently kiss the little one's face.

  "Yan'er, today Dad and Mom will take you to school together." After breakfast, Shang Qian took the car key and waved at the little guy. Seeing that the little girl was very happy, Gu Xiyan naturally didn't have any objections.

  After sending Xiao Yaotou to school, Shang Yiqi turned the car around and headed towards Gu Xiyuan's company. As Gu Xiyuan was about to get out of the car, Shang Yiqi specially told her that he would come pick her up after work.

  "Alright, go back to your unit quickly, don't be late." Gu Xiyan glanced at Shang Yi and saw that he was reluctant to leave. She couldn't help but smile and leaned in close to his side, leaving a kiss on his handsome face.

  Shang Yi was finally satisfied as he watched her get off the car.

  Today, Gu Xiyan arrived a bit early. When she entered the company, there was someone running behind her who bumped into her.

  Wait a minute. Gu Xiyan only discovered that it was really dead and there was no cleverness in becoming a book. The person who bumped into her turned out to be Dongdong.

  "It's you, Xiyan." Dongdong was the first to call out.

  "Dong Dong." Gu Xiyan smiled at Dong Dong. As it happened, the two were headed in the same direction. They went to take the elevator together.

  All the way, Dongdong chattered on and on. It wasn't until then that Gu Xiyan found out that Shaoyuan had been transferred by his superiors yesterday afternoon. He was said to have gone on a business trip.

  One morning, Shao Yuan was gone. Gu Xiyan's workload had increased a bit. By the time it was closing time, Gu Xiyan still hadn't finished her work at hand. The colleagues in the office had already left one after another. Soon, the office became quiet and deserted.

  When Zhao Yanlan came out of the office, Gu Xiyan still showed no signs of leaving. After a pause, Zhao Yanlan walked to Gu Xiyan's side.

  "It's a pity. Let's settle it this afternoon. Go eat first." Zhao Yanlan said with concern.

  "Thank you, Lan Jie. I'm almost done. You can go first, Lan Jie. I'll be fine soon." Gu Xiyan knew that Shang Yi Qi was probably waiting downstairs, so she sped up even more.

  Zhao Yanlan is the leader of this department. She has some real skills. Seeing Gu Xiyuan's determination, she put down her own bag and asked to help.

  The two of them worked together, and their efficiency was greatly improved. After finishing the work in the morning, Gu Xiyan's hands were almost numb, and she had a slight cramp.

  "Lan Jie, thank you. I'm really sorry. Still need your help. Delayed your lunch break." Gu Xiyan quickly gathered her things and grabbed the end of her hair, her face filled with gratitude.

  "Alright, Xiyan, don't be polite. Next time something like this happens, don't rush into it either. Our department isn't a place that doesn't follow reason. Delaying work is also possible." Zhao Yanlan raised an eyebrow, gesturing for Gu Xiyan to leave with her.

  Shang Yi Qi had indeed been waiting downstairs for a long time. He almost went upstairs to catch someone. When Gu Xi Yan saw him, she rushed into his arms. "Qi, you've waited for a long time, haven't you?"

  "Next time you dare to make me worry about you, be careful." Shang Qi pinched her waist and warned in her ear.

  After introducing Shang Yiqi and Zhao Yanlan, Gu Xiyuan bid farewell to Zhao Yanlan and left with her arm around Shang Yiqi's.

  After the two of them left in the car, Zhao Yanlan's face was dazed. That man... Xiyan's husband.

  She knew that this man was a well-known lawyer in the big city of Beijing. She had also thought about going to find him before, but every time she wanted to take action, she could always find reasons to stop herself.

  She remembered that it had been more than seven years since she saw him at the hotel, along with three other men. And now, Yangyang was clearly one of their children. For so many years, she had had plenty of opportunities to ask him who had slept with her that night, but every time she found his trail, she hesitated.

  She has her own concerns and thoughts. But Xiaoyu really needs a father too. All these years, she's not unaware that she hasn't been doing a good enough job as a mother. But she needs to make a living for her daughter, can't have it both ways, so she can only do her best.

  I hope that person wasn't a business lawyer that night. Besides, she hadn't found out about the other three people all these years. If she wanted to know the truth, then she could only start with the business lawyer. Maybe it's time for her to face reality. With her current abilities, supporting her daughter isn't difficult. If the child's father is willing to take on his responsibilities as a father, that would be best. If not, she won't force him.

  Shang Yi didn't take Gu Xizhen out for dinner directly. Instead, he drove to the military hospital first.

  The military hospital is located not far from the military district's main courtyard. There are many people in the hospital, and Shang Qi is still an old acquaintance.

  "Hey, why did you bring me here?" "Hospital. She's not even sick."

  "Baby, let's go for a check-up." Shang Yi explained lightly. Since they had decided to have a child, it was better to do a physical examination first. Although the hospitals outside were good, he couldn't completely trust them. Lately, that force in Beijing had been relentless. Even though he always disguised himself when taking action, it was hard to guarantee that those people wouldn't find out something through the hospital. Only here, on his own turf, could he feel more at ease.

  "Don't be afraid, baby. It'll be over soon." Shang Rui said as he led Gu Xiyan to the obstetrics department.

  "Hao Auntie, we've arrived. Sorry to trouble you." Shang Qi knocked on the door of the obstetrics department.

  "Xiao Qi has arrived, come on in. Did you bring your wife?" said the middle-aged female military doctor with a kind face and a smile, who was called Hao Ayi by Xiao Qi.
