Contract Marriage: Boss, Let's divorce-Chapter 852 - 851: Pregnant (Part 1)
Generally, when a man encounters these kinds of things, it’s impossible not to care at all. Yet he made Chuxia recover in a short time, which shows how much effort he put in.
Before, she thought Shi Che was just a jerk. But now, she feels... where can you find such a devoted man? 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖
However, she is genuinely happy for Ling Chuxia.
For a woman to meet a man who truly loves her, and she loves him back, is simply a blessing from heaven, unlike her...
Ji Xinxin hid the disappointment in her eyes, with a smile on her lips, teasing her habitually, "Looks like you’re living quite a luxurious newlywed life. Your face is so fresh, who needs skincare products!"
While speaking, Ji Xinxin unceremoniously pinched Ling Chuxia’s cheek.
Ling Chuxia smiled softly. To be fair, she truly had a great time this past month. Shi Che was very considerate and gentle to her, but also... very assertive.
When faced with such things, she couldn’t really be free of any qualms. No matter how nonchalant Shi Che appeared, it was hard for her to overcome that barrier in her heart. However, Shi Che didn’t give her any chance to dwell on that day’s events.
After marriage, he didn’t go to the company for more than half a month, staying home with her every day. Whenever she looked up, his figure would imprint in her eyes, reassuring her.
Every night, his strong and powerful arms held her, allowing her to sleep peacefully in his embrace, enveloped by his familiar scent, leading her to a dreamless night till dawn.
Gradually, it seemed as if nothing had ever happened. Their lives were warm and peaceful.
Unfortunately, sometimes, after excessive calmness comes extreme storms, like now.
Ji Xinxin’s rare visit to the house was naturally a reason for Ling Chuxia to keep her for a meal; it had been a long time since they dined together, and she planned to showcase her skills.
Ji Xinxin loves fish, and Ling Chuxia considered her friend’s need to maintain her figure as a celebrity, so she cooked fish soup for her.
Every day Aunt Zhu bought fresh ingredients and put them in the fridge. Today, Aunt Zhu just happened to buy a plump fish. As soon as Ling Chuxia opened the fridge, a fishy smell hit her nose.
Ling Chuxia, for some reason, felt a strong wave of nausea welling up from deep inside her at the smell. Unconsciously, she clutched her chest and gagged.
Ji Xinxin was rinsing the rice, and upon hearing Ling Chuxia’s gagging sound, she quickly turned her head, "Xiaxia, what’s wrong?"
Ling Chuxia furrowed her brows slightly, swallowed hard, which seemed to suppress the nausea a bit. She couldn’t understand why she would feel nauseous out of nowhere. But after swallowing a mouthful of saliva, nothing seemed to matter anymore. She took a gentle breath before replying, "I’m fine."
Ling Chuxia took out the fish and laid it on the chopping board, skillfully beginning to prepare it. Although the earlier nausea had been suppressed, it seemed to linger in her stomach, rolling faintly. She didn’t want to vomit but felt somewhat uncomfortable.
Ling Chuxia could only forcibly restrain herself. After handling the fish, she put it into the pot to cook, and after covering it with the lid, the fishy smell disappeared, making her feel a bit better.
The dishes were soon ready. Ling Chuxia brought them to the table, and Ji Xinxin had already set up the bowls and chopsticks. She held a bowl and served two bowls of fish soup, handing one to Ling Chuxia, while she couldn’t wait to drink from the other.
