My wife is in my arms

Chapter 572 Impossible Two
The streetlights were already on at night.

After having dinner at Jiang Yiren's house, Zhang Yi drove Jiang Yiren's car home. She hadn't driven today, mainly because she had lost that sense of urgency since she wasn't working.

When the pace of life suddenly slowed down, she didn't even want to drive, so she chose to take the bus to accompany Jiang Yiren to Tianyu Entertainment in the morning. Apart from the sense of loss after losing her job, she had gotten used to everything else and felt quite good.

Neither arrogant nor impetuous.

It felt like I was back to before I became famous.

The night breeze tonight is cool.

Zhang Yi rolled up the car window and let the wind blow on it for a short while. She felt her mind finally clear up a bit. She had indeed been disturbed by Xiao Zishan's repeated claims that she thought Aunt Han was pregnant.

The car traveled a distance.

Zhang Yi finally parked the car on the side of the road. She took out her phone and dialed Director Han's number. If she didn't ask, she estimated that she might not be able to sleep tonight.

Because this is a very big deal.

If Director Han can get pregnant, then she can too.

Even though Zhang Yi felt the possibility was extremely slim, since Xiao Zishan was so certain, she might as well ask. Just in case... no matter whether Director Han took medicine or went to some hospital for treatment, she could give it a try.

Having hope is better than having no hope at all.

The phone rang a few times, and Director Han's voice came through.

Why did you suddenly decide to call me?!

Han Wei smiled.

"How's the filming of 'Ta'ya' going!?"

Even though Zhang Yi was eager to know the answer, he still understood the most basic principle: before asking someone a question, you should at least lay the groundwork first.

"all the best"

Han Wei replied, then continued, "I know about your situation. The role in 'Ta Ya' has already been finalized, and I can't replace the actor with you. Once this film is finished, and I have a new project, I definitely won't forget about you."

"That would be so kind of you."

Zhang Yi immediately replied.

"It's alright. It's mainly because of your excellent acting skills. I feel more comfortable working with you, unlike your best friend's husband, who actually came to instruct me, the director, on the filming. I have to admit, I'm speechless."

As they talked, Han Wei started complaining, "By the way, how far along is your best friend's pregnancy?!"

"Not even three months yet"

Zhang Yi's eyes flickered a few times, then she asked with a smile, "Director Han, you're pregnant, right?!"

"..."

There was a brief silence on the phone before Han Wei's voice came through. She asked, "Who said that? It must be Zhang Zishan, right? I was just teasing her! You didn't call me specifically because of this, did you!?"

"Um"

Zhang Yi didn't hide anything. She said, "If you get pregnant, you have to tell me the secret formula so I can try it too. IVF is fine with me; I'm not afraid of injections."

"hehe"

Han Wei chuckled twice.

She didn't answer anything, mainly because... she couldn't say. If she had a secret recipe, she wouldn't mind telling Zhang Yi, but she didn't have any secret recipe, let alone test tubes. Instead, she got pricked by Zhang You a few times.

She was capable of doing such a thing, but she didn't want to tell Zhang Yi. On the one hand, telling him wouldn't make a difference; she couldn't very well ask Zhang You to give her a few acupuncture treatments herself!

On the other hand... she didn't want to talk about it for some reason. As for denying that she was pregnant, she dared not, worried that she had finally gotten pregnant and then people would say she had lost it. She would have nowhere to cry then.

After all, good words don't always come true, but bad words often do.

Therefore, we must be extra careful. After thinking for a moment, Han Wei said, "You should rest at home for a while. Like I said, once I have a new project, I'll at least reserve a supporting role for you. Okay, I have something to do, so I'll hang up now."

"Then you're busy." After ending the call with Director Han, Zhang Yi's eyes darkened.

As expected, Director Han was not pregnant. Otherwise, regardless of how good their relationship was, if she were really pregnant, she would have no reason to hide it. So, in the end, Xiao Zishan guessed wrong.

After restarting the car, Zhang Yi headed home.

The glimmer of hope that had finally appeared vanished in an instant. I wouldn't say I was extremely disappointed, but I was definitely not feeling well. I guess Director Han's good mood was probably ruined by her phone call.

As for Director Han's promise to reserve a supporting role for her in the next project, Zhang Yi didn't take it to heart. She didn't know how long it would be, and in the meantime, she didn't know what would happen. Rather than pinning her hopes on Director Han, she would rather study "The Truman Show" more and think more about how to sing "Everywhere You Kiss" better.

A soft sigh came from inside the car.

Putting her phone aside, Han Wei sat on the sofa in the second-floor living room and peeled a goose egg, which she had specifically asked her aunt to buy at the market before she came back.

It's said that pregnant women can make their babies' skin whiter by eating more goose eggs. Anyway, as long as it's good for the little one in her belly, she's willing to try it, regardless of whether she likes it or not.

Footsteps came from downstairs.

Han Wei, who was eating goose eggs, walked towards the stairwell and saw her father and mother, who were using crutches, appear on the second floor.

"Your mom said you might be pregnant, is that true?!"

Former renowned director Han Dong asked in an impatient tone.

I took a pregnancy test, and it showed I'm pregnant.

Han Wei replied.

"Okay, okay, okay"

Han Dong slammed his cane on the floor a few times and said "good" three times in a row.

"Xiaowei, who is the father of that child? When are you getting married?!"

Fan Ruyi asked anxiously.

"I...I was tested in vitro."

Han Wei quickly spoke up.

"The child's father was conceived through IVF!?"

Han Dong was taken aback, then nodded and said, "IVF is fine too, let's have the baby first. Xiao Wei, now that you're pregnant, you must take good care of your body. If it's not working, I'll talk to the company and ask another director..."

"Don't"

Han Wei immediately stopped her, saying, "I'm newly pregnant, so I don't need it for now. Besides, filming for 'Ta Ya' will be completed in a month and a half at most. Once filming is finished, I'll stop all my current work and stay home to prepare for childbirth."

"Can……"

Han Dong was about to say something more when his daughter said, "Dad, it's okay. And please don't spread the news about my pregnancy. It's enough for you and Mom to know."

"This is wonderful news! Why can't we tell everyone?"

Han Dong asked, puzzled.

"My health... well, you and Mom will just have to listen to me."

Han Wei spoke.

Upon hearing her daughter mention her health, Fan Ruyi instantly understood. She was afraid that if she revealed the truth, the baby might not survive. She immediately nodded and said, "Your father and I will listen to you." As she spoke, Fan Ruyi clasped her hands together and murmured, "May the Bodhisattva protect us, may the Bodhisattva protect us."

After finishing her rambling, Fan Ruyi pulled her husband up and said, "Xiaowei, you should go to sleep now. Your dad and I won't bother you anymore."

Have you thought of a name for the baby yet?

As they were going downstairs, Han Dong asked.

"I've decided. My full name will be Han Sandou, and my nickname will be Qiaofu."
