Entertainment: I am the peak

Chapter 420 Another Work
After meeting each other's parents last year, Li Qiutang and Liu Yifei brought up the topic of marriage, but they put it on hold for the time being because they had to film a movie this year.

Both sets of parents made their intentions clear: "Since 'Mojin: The Lost Legend' was a project that was arranged two years ago, I won't argue with you, but you must get married after filming 'Mojin: The Lost Legend' is finished." Liu Xiaoli is now preoccupied with taking care of her grandson and even allowed Liu Yifei to get pregnant before holding the wedding.

Liu Yifei guessed that Li Qiutang might not have seen the news from a few days ago, so she chose to continue to probe his attitude toward marriage.

What if I get pregnant?

"I'll have the baby." Li Qiutang didn't hesitate. Although the two had agreed not to have children for a while, if she really got pregnant, Li Qiutang wouldn't refuse. "I can't not take care of the fairy sister who gave birth to my child."

Seeing Liu Yifei's serious expression, Li Qiutang asked her, "Haven't you had your period this month?"

"Not yet."

Li Qiutang immediately tensed up. Could she really be pregnant? Last month, she had indeed not used protection several times for the sake of comfort.

"How about I go with you to get checked tomorrow? That way we can be mentally prepared if we don't have the results."

"But I didn't throw up."

"Morning nausea is a reaction that occurs around 4-6 weeks of pregnancy. Even if you are pregnant, it's not time yet."

"Looks like you did your homework," Liu Yifei said with a smile, "You knew it in 4-6 weeks."

"Really not here?" Li Qiutang asked again to confirm.

"Ah."

"Then we'll go to the hospital tomorrow." Li Qiutang hadn't yet considered how much impact Liu Yifei's pregnancy would have on his film crew.

"What about the wedding?" Liu Yifei asked.

"Let's get the marriage certificate first, and I'll complete the marriage certificate for you after the baby is born." Li Qiutang couldn't quite describe his feelings right now, but he was definitely more happy than apprehensive.

“Who gets married with a child?” Liu Yifei objected.

“If you’re willing to get married while heavily pregnant, I can arrange it. You really haven’t had your period this month?” Li Qiutang asked again.

"They haven't arrived yet, they're usually very punctual."

"Don't eat this greasy food." Li Qiutang pulled Liu Yifei up. "I'll make you some bird's nest soup when we get back." With that, she grabbed her car keys and headed home.

Liu Yifei told him to sit down: "What time is it now? By the time you finish stewing, it will be a long time."

"Yes, what would you like to eat? I'll go buy it for you."

"I don't want to eat anything, I just want you to be with me."

Li Qiutang can now grant Liu Yifei any request. He sat down with Liu Yifei and started contacting the production team to arrange a day off tomorrow.

It was only then that Liu Yifei realized she might have gone a bit too far.

After washing up, the two lay in bed whispering sweet nothings. Li Qiutang could say anything these days, while Liu Yifei thought for a long time, realizing that if she didn't say anything now, she would make things even worse. So she cautiously said, "Husband."

"Hmm." Li Qiutang's mind was completely blank.

"Actually, I wasn't pregnant." So what if I'm dead? It's better to be cursed to death than to be discovered later.

"What did you say?"

"I'm not pregnant. My period started the day before yesterday."

Li Qiutang felt like she'd been doused with cold water, and her mind went blank for a moment.

"you you."

"I'm sorry." Liu Yifei didn't dare to say that she wanted to get married. She had come today to test his attitude. "You can scold me if you want."

Li Qiutang really started yelling at her: "Why are you playing with this when there's nothing else fun to play with!"

Now she accepts whatever Li Qiutang says. "You're 27 years old, don't you know what you can and can't say?"

"I..." Liu Yifei couldn't argue with Li Qiutang even if she had a thousand mouths.

“There are over 700 people on set. Just because of your words, they…” Li Qiutang was genuinely angry now. “How could you be so naive?”

Then he started making phone calls again, demanding that the film crew start work as scheduled tomorrow and cancel the holiday.

Despite being scolded by Li Qiutang, Liu Yifei wasn't upset at all. While he went outside to make a phone call, Liu Yifei took out her phone and contacted Shu Chang, telling her what she had just done: "What should I do if he's a little angry now?"

Shu Chang sent her a voice message: "You're so stupid! How could you test him with something like this? What man can stand his wife lying to him about being pregnant!"

Shu Chang also scolded her for being too naive and told her to apologize to Li Qiutang.

"I just want to know what he thinks about marriage. He keeps dragging his feet on telling me. I can't be the only woman to talk about this."

Shu Chang knew the inside story from Li Qiutang's "Secret Base for Doing Big Things" group, but she couldn't say it. So she said, "You've met your parents. If it weren't for 'Mojin: The Lost Legend,' you would already be preparing for your wedding. He's already yours. Stop being so dramatic. If you lose such a good husband, you'll regret it for the rest of your life."

"I know, but I just can't help thinking that way."

The two exchanged a few more words before breaking off their contact, and Shu Chang immediately betrayed Liu Yifei.

"She wants to get married, but you haven't officially announced it or proposed. She's too embarrassed to bring it up herself, so she came up with this terrible idea to test you. Give her a way out, and this will be over."

Looking at the text message on the screen, Li Qiutang was both annoyed and amused, but it was indeed a strange thing that Liu Yifei's imagination could come up with.

After learning the truth, Li Qiutang's anger subsided, but he still returned to his room with a stern face.

"Honey, I'm sorry." Liu Yifei listened to Shu Chang and sincerely apologized to him.

Li Qiutang still held her ground: "Is a simple 'sorry' all it takes?"

"I'm willing to be punished, you can do whatever you want. Is that okay?" she said, pouting as she kissed Li Qiutang.

"Don't give me that." Li Qiutang knew it was best not to let this kind of thing linger overnight. "I'm punishing you by making you buy me a case of Coke. I'll take it to the set to drink tomorrow."

"Cola kills X."

Li Qiutang glared at her, and Liu Yifei instantly became obedient: "Okay, I'll buy it. Now?"

"Right now."

"Okay, I'll go buy it for you." With that, she put on her coat, grabbed her keys, and went out.

Half an hour later, Liu Yifei indeed brought in a case of canned cola. It must have taken her quite a bit of effort to carry the case of cola from the car, take the elevator upstairs, and then to her room.

What Li Qiutang didn't know was that after buying this case of Coke at the 24-hour convenience store in the park and loading it into her car, she asked the staff at the hotel to help her carry it up the elevator, and then she dragged it to her room door.

Liu Yifei pretended to be very tired. She even bought another bottle of iced drink and opened it for Li Qiutang on the spot: "Good brother, can you forgive me this time?"

Li Qiutang said, "Feed me."

Liu Yifei smiled slyly, took a sip herself, and kissed Li Qiutang on the lips.

“Hmm…” That’s not what Li Qiutang meant.

Liu Yifei wasn't feeling well today, but she still did something strange—she actually drank iced cola!

Li Qiutang really can't take it anymore!
This is blatant cheating! Li Qiutang never uses any props!

Li Qiutang forgave Liu Yifei with great difficulty and pain.

The next day, the crew started work on time, no doubt about it.
