Film and TV: Starting from childhood, I will give up Zhong Yi

Chapter 236: Zhong Xiaoqin was mocked

The sunlight slanted through the floor-to-ceiling windows of Gu Jia's house and fell into the living room.

Lin Yuan said in a clear voice: "Sister Jia, please stretch out your hand so I can see it."

Gu Jia sat upright on the soft leather sofa, her posture elegant and calm, with a warm smile on her face, and she placed her hand generously on Lin Yuan's palm.

She is not some young girl who would be shy about having her palm read.

However, she still felt a hint of anticipation in her heart and was very curious about what Lin Yuan would say next.

Almost all of those powerful figures who can call the shots firmly believe in Feng Shui and numerology.

Are all those big shots fools?

No, there must be a reason why he could convince those big shots.

Lin Yuan gently held Gu Jia's hand, and his fingertips moved across the lines and hilly areas on the other's palm, sometimes pausing, sometimes stroking, his eyes focused and serious.

Suddenly, his pupils dilated slightly, and a look of surprise appeared on his face. He took Gu Jia's other hand and rubbed it gently, frowning slightly, as if he had seen something incredible.

Lin Yuan's expression made Gu Jia and Zhong Xiaoqin feel nervous, but they didn't dare to ask rashly.

After a long while, Lin Yuan suddenly smiled and sighed:

"Jia Jie, if I knew my sister had a best friend like you, I should have asked her to introduce you to me earlier."

Zhong Xiaoqin was a little unhappy. She stretched out her little hand and grabbed Lin Yuan's ear. "What are you talking about?"

Lin Yuan's words made her feel jealous, but not entirely because of the teasing tone in his words.

Lin Yuan immediately let go of Gu Jia's hand, gently took off Zhong Xiaoqin's hand that was pulling his ear, held it in his hand and rubbed it gently, saying flatteringly: "Sister, I was just kidding."

Zhong Xiaoqin bit her lip, looked at him shyly with anger in her eyes, and for a moment she even forgot to pull her hand back.

Lin Yuan likes to see Zhong Xiaoqin's shy look.

Gu Jia looked at the intimate actions of the two and thought that they were just close siblings. She didn't take it too seriously and comforted Zhong Xiaoqin: "Xiaoqin, it's okay." Then she asked Xiang Linyuan, "Why do you say that?"

"Jia Jie, you are truly a lucky person for your husband." Lin Yuan held her hand again, his fingertips traced the career line on her palm, and began to praise her in a serious manner, "Marrying you will not just take your career to the next level. You should have made a lot of suggestions behind the scenes for your brother-in-law's company. I am a little envious of my brother-in-law for marrying a wife like you."

Lin Yuan's praise actually concealed a plan.

He just wanted Gu Jia to continue to strengthen her control over Xu Huanshan, so that Xu Huanshan would become more and more disgusted with her.

Having such a wife at home is both happy and unhappy.

A wife who interferes in everything may seem like a good helper, but in fact she leaves her husband no time to breathe.

He has to listen to her opinions on everything, and Xu Huanshan is not allowed to have any ideas of his own. From small things like tie color and shirt style to big things like company cooperation and business direction, every decision Xu Huanshan makes cannot escape Gu Jia's control.

Over time, this would make Xu Huanshan feel more and more that he was just a puppet, and it was only normal for the two of them to have conflicts and quarrels.

These compliments made Gu Jia feel a little flattered, and her ears were burning. Lin Yuan's warm palm kept stroking her hand. Even though she was a mature married woman, she couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable.

She raised her hand to tidy her hair and showed a gentle smile.

However, after hearing this, Zhong Xiaoqin pinched his waist in annoyance. Seeing that Lin Yuan still didn't let go of Gu Jia's hand, she pinched him again angrily.

"Did Ziyan's admission to Depu Kindergarten go smoothly?"

Lin Yuan replied: "It's a journey of twists and turns, and good things take time."

"Really?" Gu Jia was very happy. Although she had made up her mind to send her son to Depu Kindergarten no matter what, she was still very happy to hear such an answer.

"But..." Lin Yuan dragged out his tone.

Gu Jia quickly asked: "But what?"

Lin Yuan said: "After entering Depu, Zi Yan will go through a small ordeal."

Gu Jia's expression tightened: "Ah? Is there any way?"

Lin Yuan sighed softly, pursed his lips and remained silent.

"Ok."

Only then did Gu Jia slowly retract her hand, the warmth of Lin Yuan's palm still lingering on her fingertips. Looking at Lin Yuan's hesitant expression, she thought that he might have a solution, but he must have his own difficulties.

Therefore, she did not continue to ask questions for the time being, and planned to wait until Xu Ziyan really entered Depu International Kindergarten before asking Lin Yuan for advice.

"Then calculate it for me too!" Zhong Xiaoqin suddenly became interested and stretched her hand in front of Lin Yuan again.

Lin Yuan did not take her hand, but reached out and touched the top of her head, and said with a doting look: "Sister, you are a silly girl with no heart and no lungs. You will be happy in the future. You are just a little entangled now, and you don't have anything to ask, so what am I doing for you?"

Zhong Xiaoqin looked down at her belly and said, "Then you can calculate the size of the baby in your belly."

"Okay!"

Lin Yuan immediately stood up from the sofa and squatted in front of Zhong Xiaoqin.

He gently spread her legs apart, rested his elbows on her thin jeans-wrapped legs, and reached out to lift the corner of her clothes.

Zhong Xiaoqin was frightened and quickly held the corner of her clothes and glanced at Gu Jia nervously.

He was just looking at Gu Jia's hands just now, why is he suddenly lifting up his clothes when it's his turn?
She and Lin Yuan had done more intimate things before, and she had an inexplicable feeling for him. She didn't mind Lin Yuan's abruptness, but it was inevitable that she felt a little embarrassed in front of her best friend. She was also worried that this behavior would cause Gu Jia to misunderstand.

Lin Yuan smiled helplessly and said, "Sister, if you don't let me take a look, how can I help you confirm it? I know my limits. I will only look at the belly and won't lift up the upper part."

The last words made Zhong Xiaoqin's ears burn, but fortunately her hair covered it so no one else could see.

"Then...then I'll do it myself."

She mumbled softly and shyly lifted up her white T-shirt.

As the fabric moved up inch by inch, she saw Lin Yuan's Adam's apple move noticeably.

Gu Jia also came over, wanting to take a look at her best friend's belly at this time.

In front of me was a white and flat belly, which looked normal.

Lin Yuan looked at it carefully, then reached out and touched it gently. This time, Zhong Xiaoqin couldn't help but tremble slightly.

After touching for a while, Lin Yuan withdrew his hand and said firmly: "As long as you and Chen Yu firmly choose this child, this child will also firmly choose you."

Lin Yuan knew clearly that the baby in Zhong Xiaoqin's belly was destined to die. No matter whether Zhong Xiaoqin and Chen Yu finally decided to give birth to the child or not, the outcome was already determined.

Naturally, Lin Yuan had to prepare for a rainy day and put the blame for the miscarriage of the fetus on Chen Yu in advance.

After the child is gone, Zhong Xiaoqin's resentment and dissatisfaction towards Chen Yu will only grow stronger.

Although Chen Yu is a taciturn person and not good at expressing his emotions, he can get furious with his mother-in-law because of the death of Yuer, but he is indifferent to the miscarriage of the fetus and does not feel sad at all.

It was simply because he was used to being immersed in his own world and never cared about Zhong Xiaoqin and the child.

The unexpected miscarriage of the child actually went according to his wishes, so naturally he didn't feel sad or upset.

Zhong Xiaoqin nodded as if she understood, and then put down her clothes.

When she thought about talking about this with Chen Yu in the evening, her heart began to beat fast and she could only silently cheer herself up.

lunch time.

Lin Yuan, Gu Jia, Zhong Xiaoqin and Xu Ziyan, the four of them sat around the dining table.

While eating, Zhong Xiaoqin suddenly remembered something, put down her chopsticks and said, "Gu Gu, didn't Mrs. Wang ask you to go to her house yesterday to help adjust the telescope? When are you going to go?"

Gu Jia picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it into her son's bowl, then replied: "It will probably be at night, when the telescope can see the stars in the sky."

After hearing this, Zhong Xiaoqin nodded in understanding: "Oh, once the telescope is adjusted, Mrs. Wang will definitely help you with this."

"Yeah, anyway, I am now full of confidence and ready to fight a protracted war with her. Xiaoqin, I went to her house yesterday, and there was a giant water lily painting by Monet hanging in her living room. This level of famous paintings is rarely seen in museums. I didn't expect it to be hung in her living room like this."

When Gu Jia talked about the paintings in Mrs. Wang's house, there was a hint of amazement in her tone.

"The life of rich people is so simple and unpretentious."

Zhong Xiaoqin just sighed in agreement. She was different from Gu Jia and did not have too high pursuit for material life. As long as she could live comfortably, that was enough.

It's a pity that even such a small wish has now become a luxury.

Lin Yuan, who had been eating in silence, suddenly put down his chopsticks. "The preservation of oil paintings has very high requirements for temperature and light. If it is hung in the living room, it will be easily damaged. Mrs. Wang either bought a fake, or she has a problem with her brain, or of course it may be both."

Gu Jia said hesitantly, "Such a rich person wouldn't buy a fake, right?"

"I haven't seen the painting, so I can't make a judgment." Lin Yuan shook his head, and said meaningfully, "Sister Jia, don't think too highly of rich people. Fraud is common. Although some people are extremely wealthy, their moral character, thoughts, and culture are not at the same level."

This seemed to touch Gu Jia's memory. She nodded repeatedly, "That Mrs. Wang couldn't even tell the difference between Monet and Van Gogh, and she actually said it was Van Gogh's water lilies."

To be fair, she still disdained Mrs. Wang's arrogance and shallowness, but in order for her son to successfully enter school, she had to go to her house again and again to please her in a humble manner. Only she knew the sadness and helplessness in it.

……

In the afternoon, the sun became even hotter. Lin Yuan and Zhong Xiaoqin were at Gu Jia's house again, playing with Xu Ziyan for a while.

Zhong Xiaoqin really likes this little guy Xu Ziyan, and Lin Yuan is simply thinking of "entering someone's garden to pick someone's melons and making the child miss his mother."

When dealing with such a young woman, the first priority is of course to establish a good relationship with her children.

Lin Yuan also performed magic for them, which amused Zhong Xiaoqin and Xu Ziyan. Zhong Xiaoqin watched with rapt attention and exclaimed from time to time, while Xu Ziyan was so excited that he danced with joy. Even Gu Jia was amazed and showed a look of surprise on her face.

Around three or four in the afternoon, Zhong Xiaoqin and Lin Yuan returned to Zhong Xiaoqin's home.

Because Zhong Xiaoqin's mother called and told Zhong Xiaoqin that she had brought Pikachu to her house.

She knew that Chen Yu was coming back from a business trip today, so she specially brought some ingredients with her, thinking that Chen Yu would have a ready-made meal when he returned home.

When I opened the door, I saw that the house had been tidied by Zhong's mother and the sound of cooking could be heard from the kitchen.

After preparing a sumptuous meal, Zhong's mother prepared to leave because she knew that her son-in-law didn't like others to disturb his living space too much.

Before leaving, Zhong's mother looked at Lin Yuan and said, "Xiao Yuan, come back with me."

Lin Yuan declined politely: "No, Auntie. I have packed everything and I will not come back to you today."

Seeing his firm attitude, Zhong's mother did not try to keep him and went home alone.

Lin Yuan stuffed Pikachu into the cat box and said to Zhong Xiaoqin, "Sister, I'm going back too. I'll take Pikachu with me first." Zhong Xiaoqin tried to persuade him to stay, "The meal is ready. You can go back after you finish eating."

Lin Yuan shook his head: "Although Chen Yu and I have only met once, I can see his personality. He doesn't like others to appear in his home, nor does he like others to cause trouble for him. Didn't you see that Auntie hurried back after cooking? If I stayed, I would be ignorant. Just be good to each other. It's not worth it if you two quarrel about this again."

As he said this, he walked out the door carrying the cat box.

Zhong Xiaoqin trotted after him.

Lin Yuan frowned and asked, "Why are you running?"

Zhong Xiaoqin smiled innocently and said, "I have nothing to do at home, so I'll go with you to your house to see how you've cleaned it up."

When the two arrived at Lin Yuan's house, they found that the house was tidy, completely different from the dirty and messy appearance when they first met.

Zhong Xiaoqin felt relieved, sat on the sofa and started teasing Pikachu.

The little guy's furry tail swept across her palm, bringing a tingling sensation.

Before leaving, he reminded her: "You have to take a few photos of Pikachu for me every day. I will miss it."

Lin Yuan nodded and said, "Yes, I know."

When Zhong Xiaoqin walked to the door, Lin Yuan suddenly said, "Sister, you won't blame me for what happened the other day, right?"

Zhong Xiaoqin's cheeks flushed slightly. She shook her head and said shyly, "Blame me in the morning and blame you in the evening. We are even now."

Lin Yuan walked slowly to her side, without making any moves as usual, his eyes were clear and focused, and his tone was extremely serious: "Don't wrong yourself."

Lin Yuan, who always loved to stick to her and joke around before, was so serious at this moment.

The absence of familiar physical contact made the words seem more sincere, and it also brought warmth to her heart.

At least Zhong Xiaoqin sincerely felt that Lin Yuan was thinking about her and caring about her.

Zhong Xiaoqin raised her hand and ruffled his hair, then said with a smile, "I know."

Zhong Xiaoqin returned home.

At this time, Chen Yu had already returned.

When I saw the house was tidy and there was delicious food on the table, my first reaction was anger.

Hearing the sound of Zhong Xiaoqin opening the door and coming back, Chen Yu immediately said unhappily: "Hey, can you please talk to your mother and ask her not to come here by herself when we are not here? When she comes, she has to tidy up the house and cook. No one can tolerate a mother-in-law who eats snails."

Zhong Xiaoqin explained: "I told you, my mom doesn't come here often enough now. She's worried that it's unhealthy for us to order takeout, so she made some for us and took some home herself. It's not a big deal at all."

"This is not a question of whether it is troublesome or not, Zhong Xiaoqin, you are already thirty years old!" Chen Yu's tone became sharp, "How long do you want others to serve you?"

If it were in the past, Zhong Xiaoqin might have silently endured the accusation. But after hearing Lin Yuan's words "Don't wrong yourself", she didn't want to tolerate it anymore.

"I am thirty years old, but I am also my mother's daughter. My mother just cooked a meal for me. Do you have to speak so harshly? She knows that you don't like her. She went back immediately after cooking. If you are not satisfied, then don't eat it. Just cook it yourself."

"This is not just a matter of cooking." Chen Yu sighed heavily, as if expressing his dissatisfaction. "Every time I go on a business trip, you move back home. You have never left them mentally. Sometimes I feel that it's not that you haven't started a family, but that you haven't reached adulthood!"

After saying that, Chen Yu turned and went into the bathroom to take a shower.

Zhong Xiaoqin was so angry that her chest heaved violently. She shouted at his back, "Is there gold or treasure in this house? Should I stay at home all the time? You are on a business trip and there is no one at home. What's wrong with me going home to spend a few days with my parents? So my parents should not care about anything and should never appear in front of you. Only then will you be satisfied, right?"

She had only gone to the house to clean and cook a meal, but she was inexplicably labeled as "underage". How could she not feel aggrieved?

You are the only one at home, so what's wrong with moving back to your parents' home? Why do you have to stay at home all alone?

Chen Yu in the bathroom did not say anything back, but just let out a heavy sigh.

After Chen Yu came out of the shower, he sat down at the dining table.

After all, the harsh words have been said, and if I really go to cook by myself again, that would be really asking for trouble.

When Zhong Xiaoqin saw him sit down, she didn't mention not letting him eat. She just pointed at the report forms stacked on the table with her chopsticks.

Chen Yu opened it and his face instantly became serious. He slowly put down the report and asked, "When did it happen?"

"The results were just tested today," Zhong Xiaoqin said coldly, "We do it once a month. You can calculate the exact time yourself."

"Why are you so weird?" Chen Yu forced out a dry laugh, "Then do we still want it?"

Zhong Xiaoqin could tell from his tone that he was being perfunctory, so she just said with a stern face, "It's up to you."

"How about...how about not asking for it for now? Didn't we agree before that..."

Zhong Xiaoqin was angry and didn't want to persuade him in a humble manner. She said directly and decisively: "Okay! Let's go to the hospital tomorrow. Why should a minor be a mother?"

Sunday, early morning.

Zhong Xiaoqin and Chen Yu went to the hospital.

But in the end, Zhong Xiaoqin regretted it. She couldn't bear to abort the child like this.

Seeing Zhong Xiaoqin, who had just entered the surgery, coming out soon, Chen Yu hurriedly went up to her and asked, "Is the surgery done?"

"I can't do it," Zhong Xiaoqin avoided his gaze and walked quickly towards the hospital entrance. Her voice was a little weak, "Something happened at the company, so they asked me to go back and work overtime."

Chen Yu was unwilling to say, "Can't I take a leave on this weekend?"

Zhong Xiaoqin clutched the strap of her bag and hurried, "No, today is a big event, and everyone in the marketing department has to be there."

"Well, this operation..." Chen Yu wanted to say something.

"Some other time, I really have to go."

The two walked out of the hospital. Zhong Xiaoqin said goodbye to Chen Yu and quickly got into a taxi.

Lin Yuan was still immersed in sleep, so his pants were a little swollen.

After hearing the knock on the door, he secretly guessed that it was most likely Zhong Xiaoqin who came.

He was too lazy to look for clothes. He just wore a pair of loose shorts and left his sturdy upper body bare. He strode to the door and opened it.

Sure enough, Zhong Xiaoqin was standing outside the door with a ponytail. Her blue and white clothes made her look particularly youthful and beautiful.

He stepped aside to welcome Zhong Xiaoqin into the house, and then he went straight to the bedroom and asked casually, "Sister, why are you here so early?"

When Zhong Xiaoqin saw Lin Yuan's look, her cheeks slightly heated up. She followed behind him, pouting and saying with a face full of grievance, "Chen Yu just took me to get an abortion."

Lin Yuan knew clearly that according to the plot of the TV series, Zhong Xiaoqin must have found an excuse to escape. Judging from her current condition, it didn't look like she had induced labor.

But he still acted very dissatisfied and asked, "He just came back yesterday, and he was so eager to take you to get an abortion today?"

"Yeah." Zhong Xiaoqin nodded.

The two of them had walked into the bedroom without realizing it. The heavy curtains were closed and the light in the room was dim.

Lin Yuan walked to the window, pulled open the curtains, and the sunlight poured in instantly.

At this time, Zhong Xiaoqin noticed that the screen of the mobile phone on the bedside was emitting a bright light. She leaned over to take a look curiously and found that it was actually her own photo.

She picked up her phone, swiped the screen, and found that the album was full of various photos of herself.

Some are cute, some are cool, some are from the past, and some are from the present.

At this moment, Lin Yuan also came over, and at this moment he had not yet shed his Chen Bo state.

The moment their eyes met, Zhong Xiaoqin's face suddenly turned red, as if blood was about to drip out. She could even imagine that Lin Yuan was doing something unspeakable in front of the photo.

"You should find a girlfriend as soon as possible," she turned away, her voice as thin as a mosquito's hum, "It's not good to be alone like this... "

Lin Yuan said casually, "Why would I look for a girlfriend? I've been living like this for so many years."

Zhong Xiaoqin bit her lower lip, her ears turned red, and suddenly she said "Wait a minute", turned around and rushed into the bathroom.

Two minutes later, Zhong Xiaoqin handed a bunch of white clothes to Lin Yuan, her fingertips trembling slightly, and her face almost buried in the collar: "You can use mine."

"Sister, what are you doing?"

Lin Yuan's eyes widened, his face full of surprise. He really wasn't pretending.

After traveling through several worlds, this was the first time that someone took the initiative to hand him underwear.

"I, I saw it on the Internet, saying that this way might be faster." Zhong Xiaoqin twisted the corner of her clothes, her voice getting smaller and smaller.

When she saw Lin Yuan washing his face with cold water over and over again that day, she felt a little bit sorry for him, so she searched the Internet for those embarrassing terms, and she saw this statement.

Since Zhong Xiaoqin took the initiative to do this, there was no need for Lin Yuan to pretend to be a gentleman.

Lin Yuan suddenly asked: "Can I look at you?"

"Huh? Oh."

Zhong Xiaoqin found a chair a little distance from the bed and sat down uncomfortably, with her brows lowered, not daring to look him in the eye.

Silence spread in the air.

After an unknown amount of time, Lin Yuan suddenly said, "Sister, can you look at me with disdain?"

"Ah?" Zhong Xiaoqin raised her head suddenly, her ears burning. She was holding her breath to listen to the rustling noise, and was suddenly called out. She was so flustered that she didn't even know where to put her fingers, "I, I don't know how to..."

I couldn't help but think that I failed to satisfy Lin Yuan's wish, would he be hurt?

After hesitating for a long time, she mustered up the courage to turn her head, daring only to look at Lin Yuan's face, trying her best to avoid other parts of her body.

But when she met his burning gaze, Zhong Xiaoqin couldn't help but blush.

But she was reluctant to look at Lin Yuan with disdain.

She also didn't understand why Lin Yuan wanted her to look at him with disgust.

When I get back, I'll search the Internet myself and maybe I can find the answer.

Although she was shy and fidgeting, she changed her mind and felt satisfied that neither she nor Lin Yuan had done anything that crossed the line and that she could still help Lin Yuan.

Just as she was daydreaming, a burning breath suddenly came over her, causing her eyelashes to tremble violently like a frightened butterfly.
