Marriage First, True Love Later

After not going to work and getting pregnant, Anran had no concept of time at all. It wasn’t until Mrs. Zhang told her that her grandchildren were coming back tomorrow and that she had to take a day off that Anran realized that National Day had arrived.

Su Yicheng’s work didn’t have a clear division of holidays at all. He received a phone call, and because the provincial Office had issued an urgent document on the 1st, his original plan to take Anran out for a walk had no choice but to be put on hold. He was prepared to return to the office to work overtime.

After hanging up the phone, su Yicheng turned his head and looked at Anran, who had already changed into her maternity dress, and said apologetically, ” “Secretary Zheng called to say that there’s an urgent document. I have to go to the office.”

Although she was a little disappointed, she could understand. Anran said considerately, ” “Go, work is more important.” As she spoke, she adjusted his slightly crooked tie.

Su Yicheng felt a little guilty as he stepped forward to hug Anran, then whispered in her ear, ” “I’m sorry, I don’t have much time to spend with you.” Because of his work, he couldn’t have normal rest and work hours like everyone else. Even now that Anran was pregnant, it was so difficult for him to stay by her side for a day.

“Then you have to work. Otherwise, this is how you’re going to raise me and the baby.” Anran reached out to hug him back and chuckled.

Su Yicheng also laughed and let go of him. He pressed his forehead against hers and asked, ” “Mrs. Zhang isn’t home today. Do you want me to send you back to mom’s house?”

Anran shook her head. &Quot; mom and dad are going to attend an uncle’s son’s wedding today. They shouldn’t be home. &Quot; Yesterday, when Lin xiaofen came over, she remembered that she had said this.

Su Yicheng frowned. He was still a little worried about her being alone at home.

As if sensing his concerns, Anran pouted, then reached out to hold his face. She tilted her head and asked, ” “Su Yicheng, do you think I’m that useless? I can stay at home alone!” As if to prove something, an ran emphasized the word ‘can’.

Su Yicheng laughed and reached out to pull her hand down. Then, he took the opportunity to put it directly to his mouth and kissed it gently as he said, ” I’m not worried about you being alone at home, but you’re alone at home with three people. How can I be at ease? ” As he said that, he placed his other hand on her stomach and caressed it back and forth.

“Hmph, so you’re not worried about me, but your two little lovers!” An ran pretended to be angry and patted him.

Su Yicheng opened his mouth and put her hand in his mouth, then gently bit it without hurting her. He looked at her and said seriously, ” “Because of you, I’m worried about the baby in your stomach.”

“You only know how to use your glib tongue to deceive me.” Anran looked at him, feeling angry and amused at the same time. She knew that he was best at sweet-talking, but she still found it particularly pleasing to hear.

After thinking for a while, su Yicheng suddenly raised his eyebrows and thought of something. He looked at Anran and said, ” “Come with me to the office.”

Anran sighed and looked at him. &Quot; I really can be alone at home. Don’t Treat Me Like A Child. &Quot;

Su Yicheng nodded in agreement with her and only said, ” &Quot; yes, I know you can. I don’t treat you like a child. Just treat it as you’re here to accompany me, okay? ”

“You don’t need my company!” She wasn’t smart, but she wasn’t stupid either. He was still coaxing her like she was a child. Seriously!

&Quot; I’ll be more motivated if you stay with me. I’ll be able to finish my work faster. &Quot; Su Yicheng didn’t even need to make a draft to tell a lie, and he was able to tell it so easily and smoothly.

Anran looked at him for a while before sighing softly. She nodded and said, ” “Alright,” he said. If he insisted, she couldn’t refuse, and she couldn’t bear to refuse.

When su Yicheng appeared in the office with Anran, Secretary Zheng, who was standing at the door, was a little dumbfounded. He stared at Anran in a daze, unable to react. After working for su Yicheng for so many years, he had always felt that su Yicheng was a man who kept his work and personal life separate, and that he would never mix his personal feelings with work. However, today, he actually brought his wife to work, which was really a bit surprising.

Anran smiled at Secretary Zheng calmly. &Quot; Hello, Secretary Zheng. &Quot;

Only then did Secretary Zheng react. He closed his mouth, which was a little too wide open because of surprise, and put on a warm smile. &Quot; “Good day, Madam!”

An ran felt a little strange when he called her ‘Madam’. She only laughed dryly and said, ” “Just call me an ran.”

Secretary Zheng nodded with a smile and said enthusiastically, ” &Quot; this is Anran’s first time here, right? do you want me to show you around later? ”

Before Anran could speak, the person beside her said in a cold tone, ” “Secretary Zheng, do you have a lot of free time?”

Upon hearing his tone, Secretary Zheng was stunned for a moment, then he quickly reacted and turned to look at su Yicheng. &Quot; &Quot; no, I’m very busy. I still have a lot of things to do. I’ll go now, right now. &Quot; As he said that, he turned around and wanted to run away.

Before Secretary Zheng could turn around and leave, su Yicheng said nonchalantly, ” &Quot; I see that you’re very free. Go and make a detailed form for the city construction project and give it to me. &Quot;

Secretary Zheng turned his head and said excitedly, ” &Quot; Su Shi, I’ve already done the form for you! &Quot; Back then, he had worked for him for two days and two nights for that complicated form, so busy that he didn’t even have time to accompany his girlfriend. He had almost caused his girlfriend to break up with him!

“Yes, I know.” Su Yicheng nodded slightly, and the expression on his face remained unchanged. He only calmly said, ” &Quot; but I lost the one you made for me before. Can you get me another one? sorry for the trouble. &Quot;

Upon hearing this, Secretary Zheng cried out bitterly, ” su city, you can’t play like this! &Quot; He was just afraid that Anran would find it boring since it was her first time here, so he wanted to take her out for a walk. He was just a little too enthusiastic. Did he have to make fun of him like this? With his understanding of su Yicheng, how could he have lost such important information?

Su Yicheng raised his eyebrows, turned to look at him, and asked, ” “Is there a problem?”

Secretary Zhen shuddered and did not dare to look at him. He turned around and strode away.”I’ll go get the information now!”

“Hehe.” Anran couldn’t help but laugh at their interaction. After all, she had been with su Yicheng for almost half a year. She couldn’t say that she knew everything about him, but she more or less understood his personality and the way he handled things. Naturally, she could tell that he was probably trying to take revenge on Secretary Zheng.

Seeing her smile, su Yicheng turned his head to look at her, reached out to touch her soft long hair, and asked in a seemingly casual way, ” “What’s wrong? what’s so funny?”

Anran sniffed him and then asked with a sly smile, ” “I smell something sour. Do you smell it?” he asked.

Su Yicheng smiled, nodded, and said frankly, ” “Yeah, I’m the one who’s jealous.”

Anran didn’t know how to react to his confession. She looked at him in a daze. She thought he would deny it. Anyone would feel embarrassed when their thoughts were exposed!

Su Yicheng reached out to caress her face, looked at her, and said with a slightly distressed expression, ” “What do we do? I’m becoming more and more irrational. I’m even starting to mix my private life with my work.”

Anran looked at him and didn’t know what to say, but she felt a little strange and sweet for no reason.

Holding her face, su Yicheng continued with a faint smile, ” &Quot; I want to hide you so that no one can see you. I want you to smile at me and only look at me. &Quot;

Anran laughed and patted him lightly. &Quot; I didn’t know you had such a strong desire to possess. &Quot; Her slender fingers poked his firm chest. &Quot; overbearing! &Quot;

Su Yicheng smiled, leaned over, and pecked her on the lips. &Quot; “I’m only overbearing towards you, alright?”

Anran smiled sweetly, and her eyes curved into beautiful crescents. She looked at him and nodded heavily. &Quot; okay! &Quot; She liked how overbearing and devoted he was, making others feel that they were the most precious and cherished.

The two of them looked at each other and laughed for a while. Then, su Yicheng took her into his office, found a less boring book from the bookcase behind him, and gave it to Anran. He asked her to sit on the sofa in the rest area and read it, while he went back to his desk to deal with the urgent documents that Secretary Zheng had placed on his desk a long time ago.

The book su Yicheng gave her was really boring. It was filled with words, and they were all very academic words. Anran only felt that her eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and then she slowly lost consciousness.

When su Yicheng finished dealing with a document and raised his head, he saw that Anran had already fallen asleep on the sofa’s cushion. He stepped forward, took off his coat, and covered her with it. He then gently sat down on the sofa, reached out, and pushed aside the bangs on her forehead with a faint smile on his lips.

Knock, knock, knock. &Quot; Suddenly, someone knocked on the office door. Secretary Zheng pushed the door open and said, ” &Quot; su city, Secretary Zhang has arrived. He’s calling for everyone to gather. &Quot;

Suddenly, there was no more sound, because he saw su Yicheng gesturing for him to keep quiet. Only then did he see Anran, who was half-asleep on the sofa.

Su Yicheng got up and walked over to him. He lowered his voice and asked, ” “What is it?”

Secretary Zheng understood and lowered his voice like him.”Secretary Zhang is here. He’s gathered everyone in the meeting room for a meeting. I think it’s about the urgent document from this morning.”

Su Yicheng nodded. &Quot; I understand. &Quot;

Secretary Zheng nodded, turned around, and left the office.

When Anran woke up again, su Yicheng was no longer in the office. She rubbed her eyes in confusion, and just as she was about to call him, she saw his cell phone on the table.

She thought that he might have gone to the toilet, so she picked up the book she had just read and started reading again. After waiting for a long time, he didn’t see su Yicheng return, so he frowned in confusion, not knowing where su Yicheng had gone.

Confused, she got up, opened the door, and went out. Secretary Zheng wasn’t outside the office. Confused and curious about the building, she walked to the corridor and saw two people coming up the stairs. When Anran looked at them, the two of them also looked up at Anran.

Anran was stunned. She recognized that the person was Xiao Yingtian from Xudong real estate. Xiao Yingtian obviously also recognized her. He nodded at Anran with a faint smile and said, ” “Anran, long time no see.”

Anran also smiled at him and said,”long time no see, Chairman Xiao.” &Nbsp;

When su Yicheng returned from the meeting, he saw Anran and Xiao Yingtian chatting happily in the office.

“Why is uncle Xiao here?” Su Yicheng said with a smile as he put the documents on his desk. Then, he walked over to Anran, sat on the side of the sofa, and naturally placed his hand on Anran’s shoulder. Anran turned her head and looked at him with a faint smile.

&Quot; I’m here to find Zhang. I happened to run into Anran when I passed your floor, so I chatted with Anran. &Quot; Xiao Yingtian said with a faint smile. Then, he stood up and said, ” it seems that your meeting is done. I’m looking for old Zhang now. He should have time to talk to me. I’m leaving. &Quot; She stood up and walked towards the office door.

&Quot; uncle Xiao, ” su Yicheng said politely. &Quot; won’t you sit for a while longer? ” As he spoke, he and an ran stood up.

&Quot; no, no, I won’t get in the way of you two being lovey-dovey. I read the newspaper the other day. &Quot; Xiao Yingtian said with a bit of embarrassment.

Anran’s face suddenly turned red at the mention of that day’s newspaper, and she felt a little embarrassed. She turned her head and gave su Yicheng a resentful look.

Su Yicheng smiled indifferently, without the slightest embarrassment or awkwardness.

She walked Xiao Yingtian out of the door. When she reached the door, Xiao Yingtian suddenly turned his head and looked at Anran with a mysterious smile. &Quot; Anran, you should think about what I just said. Don’t waste your talent. &Quot;

Anran smiled and nodded. &Quot; okay, I’ll think about it. &Quot;

Su Yicheng raised his eyebrows. He seemed to have missed something when he wasn’t around just now.

After Xiao Yingtian left and the door was closed again, su Yicheng looked at Anran and asked, ” “What did uncle Xiao ask you to consider?”

Anran rolled her eyes and asked, ” “What do you think about me taking on a few cases at home?”

He understood what she meant. He frowned and said disapprovingly, ” &Quot; Anran, have you forgotten that you’re still pregnant? ” He had seen how she looked when she was rushing the design drawings. He could not bear to see her work so hard, not to mention that she was pregnant now.

Anran pouted and drew circles on his chest with her fingers. She muttered in a low voice, ” “I knew you wouldn’t agree.” Because she knew that he would not agree, she did not rashly agree to Xiao Yingtian’s request.

Su Yicheng reached out to stroke her soft long hair, looked at her, and said seriously, ” &Quot; Anran, let’s put our child first, okay? ”

Although Anran was a little disappointed, she knew that he was doing this for her own good. She nodded obediently and agreed, ” “Alright,” he said.

Su Yicheng could naturally see the loneliness on her face. He looked at the documents on the desk and thought to himself, ” fortunately, there’s no hurry. Why don’t I wait until I get home and drive overnight to deal with them? ”

After making up his mind, su Yicheng rubbed her head and said, ” “Let’s go, I’m busy.” As he spoke, he looked up at his watch. It was almost lunchtime. “Let’s go eat first, then we’ll go for a walk?”

“Yes.” Anran nodded with a smile and reached out to let him hold her hand.

Because of the November holiday, there were many people on the streets. Couples and friends were walking together. Of course, there were many cars on the road. Almost all the streets were congested.

Su Yicheng and Anran were blocked on the street in front of the government building. In the end, they managed to move forward a little, but su Yicheng decisively stopped the car in front of a restaurant, then got out of the car with Anran.

An ran smiled as she walked. She seemed to be in a particularly good mood.

Su Yicheng, on the other hand, was a little depressed. He didn’t expect that there would be so many people and cars on the National Day, and he even felt that the road was congested.

What made him even more depressed was that almost all the restaurants he wanted to find were full. It had been almost an hour since he left the office, and the two were still walking on the street. They couldn’t even find a small restaurant.

He lowered his head and asked Anran, ” are you hungry? ”

An ran rolled her eyes and nodded. Recently, she had gotten used to eating a lot and had many meals every day. He had been eating since the morning, and he was indeed a little hungry.

Su Yicheng felt a little guilty and reached out to pull her a little closer, so that the pedestrians on the road wouldn’t bump into her.

“Why don’t we go back? I’ll make lunch for you.” Su Yicheng said.

Anran shook her head. &Quot; I’ve been staying at home so long that I’m going to rot. &Quot;

“But you’re hungry.” Su Yicheng said with a frown.

Anran thought for a while. This place wasn’t far from the pedestrian street, so she looked at him slyly and said, ” “Accompany me to go shopping.”

“Shopping?” Su Yicheng raised his eyebrows.

Anran nodded, raised their hands, and said, ” &Quot; I think we’ve only gone shopping once. Why don’t you go shopping with me again? there’s a lot of traffic on the road today anyway, so we can’t go for a walk. I don’t want to stay at home all day either, so let’s go shopping. &Quot;

Su Yicheng nodded with a smile. &Quot; shopping is fine, ” he said. &Quot; but we have to find a place to eat first. We can’t let you starve. &Quot;

Anran rolled her eyes, took his hand, and walked forward. She said, ” “I know where to find good food.”

After su Yicheng came back to his senses, he let her do whatever she wanted, but he just shook his head and laughed behind her. As long as she was happy, it was fine.

Su Yicheng stared at the thing in Anran’s hand that was still steaming, frowned a little, and said, ” “Is this sanitary?” The street was filled with people and dust, but he didn’t seem to have anything to hide.

Anran glanced at him. With her bulging stomach, she held the freshly bought hot beef stew and noodles and said with a smile, ” &Quot; you can’t always be so particular. Sometimes, you have to make do with it. Otherwise, you’ll miss a lot of things. &Quot; As she spoke, she couldn’t help but swallow her saliva. She hadn’t eaten this in a long time. It seemed that ever since she left school and started work, she had been busy every day. The rest time for her design was never fixed. Sometimes, she would be busy for weeks. If she didn’t sleep, she wouldn’t have to close her eyes for days. When she had time to rest, she would hide at home and sleep. There was never enough time to go shopping, and for convenience’s sake, they always went to the shopping mall to buy clothes, buying everything in one go.

Anran was a little anxious, so she used the disposable plastic spoon to scoop a mouthful of Beef Soup and put it in her mouth. Before she could taste it, her tongue was scalded, and she cried out childishly, ” it’s hot, it’s hot, it’s hot, it’s hot. &Quot;

Su Yicheng sighed and shook his head. He reached out to take the foam from her hand, pulled her to the side of the road, and looked at her with amusement. &Quot; why are you acting like a child? ” He took the disposable plastic spoon from her hand and scooped a spoonful. Then, he put it to his mouth and blew on it gently. He brought it to her mouth again and coaxed her gently, ” “Come, open your mouth.”

Anran smiled and obediently opened her mouth, letting him taste the food in her mouth. It was neither hot nor cold, and with the taste in her memory, Anran closed her eyes in satisfaction and sighed. &Quot; “It’s still as delicious as before!”

Su Yicheng also smiled, then scooped another spoonful of rice, put it to his mouth, and gently blew on it, then brought it to her mouth for her to eat.

Anran was very satisfied. When she had finished more than half of the bowl, su Yicheng fed her again, and she stopped talking. She looked at him and shook her head.”I’m full, you can eat the rest.”

He naturally understood her intentions, but she insisted so he had no choice but to finish the remaining half of the bowl. Then, under her expectant gaze, he nodded and said that it was delicious.

Hearing this, an ran smiled with satisfaction. She held his hand again and walked into the crowd.

Su Yicheng, on the other hand, always had to be on high alert, afraid that people would bump into her, so he always kept her within the scope of his protection.

In fact, the two of them didn’t buy anything. They just went shopping. Anran liked the feeling of holding hands with the person she loved and walking in a crowd. It was very steady and safe.

When she saw the snacks on both sides of the table, Anran would always swallow her saliva. However, some of the food was unhealthy, so even if Anran acted coquettishly, su Yicheng would firmly disagree. Then, Anran would pout unhappily, but when she saw the next delicious dish, she would forget all her previous unhappiness. She would point at the stall in front of her and Pat su Yicheng’s hand, just like she was doing now. &Quot; Yicheng, look, it’s sweet corn. &Quot;

Su Yicheng was a little helpless and amused, and he nodded his head affectionately. &Quot; okay, there are too many people over there. You stand there and I’ll go over to buy you some. &Quot;

An ran nodded like a child waiting for food. She was extremely obedient.

An ran stood under a Chinese parasol tree and watched as the man squeezed into a group of people to buy a small corn for her. She thought that he must have never been to these places, and her heart felt warm. It wasn’t that she really wanted to eat it, but seeing him squeeze through the crowd for her made her feel an indescribable sweetness in her heart.

“An ran?”

Just as Anran was happily watching su Yicheng squeeze through the crowd to buy her a corn, a familiar male voice came from behind her. It sounded like he was trying to test her, but it was filled with uncertainty.

Anran turned her head and saw mo Fei standing behind her, dressed in casual clothes. When he saw her, a hint of joy flashed across his face.

Anran was a little surprised to see him here. She only nodded slightly without much expression on her face.

Anran turned around and saw mo Fei’s bulging stomach. The joy on her face immediately dimmed, and she laughed dryly.”Last time, I saw the newspaper last time.”

Anran nodded. She really didn’t think she had anything to say to mo Fei.

Mo Fei also sensed the awkwardness and tried hard to find a topic to talk about. &Quot; you’re embarrassed. &Quot;

“Could it be?” A woman’s voice interrupted mo Fei’s unfinished words.

Hearing this, Anran looked up and saw Xiao Xiao, who was behind mo Fei, walking over with sugar-fried chestnuts in her hands.
