Chapter 185 President He is Jealous
"According to what you said, if you go to court, you might only get custody of one child at most. And even if you get custody of one child, Zheng Yuanxi won't let you off easy. I have developed a drug that can cause a child to suffocate temporarily, but this drug has serious side effects, and newborns are also quite vulnerable with many unstable factors. It could potentially affect their lifelong health. You need to think carefully about whether you really want to use it."
Gu Zhiyao was filled with mixed feelings of joy and sorrow; naturally, she didn't want her baby to take this risk.
Xiao Lin could also see that, and continued, "How about this, Zhiyao, I'll help you hide the existence of the other child first. On the day of delivery, I'll go into the delivery room with the Dr. Zhou you mentioned to help you give birth. I'll use medication to help you give birth to the boy first, and then hide the signs of the second child so that they don't find out that you have another one in your belly. As for the boy who came out earlier, we'll find a way to get him."
"Will this medication affect the baby?" Gu Zhiyao asked immediately.
Xiao Lin smiled gently, "Yes, there is a little, but it's not a big problem. I can control it."
When Gu Zhiyao heard him say that, she believed him and became excited!
Although she had discussed with Dr. Zhou about keeping the second child a secret, it was still a big deal to give birth in a hospital with so many medical staff. It wouldn't be easy to hide it, especially since He Yi would be sending people to keep an eye on things. Dr. Zhou wasn't very confident to begin with, but now with Xiao Lin as a capable helper, things should be fine.
"By the way, Xiao Lin, are you married?" Gu Zhiyao suddenly asked.
"Not yet," Xiao Lin replied, his thoughts slightly dazed. "I haven't been able to find anyone suitable. My adoptive parents introduced me to some people when I had amnesia, but I didn't pay much attention because I was afraid I might have known someone before I lost my memory, so..."
Gu Zhiyao remained silent.
She and Xiao Lin grew up in an orphanage and were very close, but they were both young back then, and she didn't have any romantic feelings for Xiao Lin. She was just unsure about Xiao Lin's feelings for her...
Of course, she wouldn't bring it up herself, because it would be awkward if it wasn't true. On the contrary, if he really had feelings for her, it would be even worse to break the ice, since she couldn't reciprocate his love at the moment.
We've just reunited, and the situation is so urgent. Let's take care of the child's matter first.
Gu Zhiyao then suddenly understood and stopped thinking about things she shouldn't be thinking about.
The two then chatted about other topics, and Xiao Lin asked her, "Zhiyao, do you want to go ride the Ferris wheel?"
Gu Zhiyao was taken aback, "But I'm pregnant now..."
"It's okay, I'm here, don't be afraid! Besides, as long as there are no special issues with your health, you don't need to worry. You're only 8 months along, which is the most stable period of your pregnancy. We'll just be careful."
“Then let’s go over there,” Gu Zhiyao said happily.
Aunt Li was shocked when she learned that she was going to ride the Ferris wheel. "But you're healthy, Zhiyao. I think safety should be the priority. Why don't you wait until the baby is born before you ride it?"
"Aunt Li, thank you for your concern. Don't worry, I will take good care of Zhiyao," Xiao Lin quickly replied.
“Yes, Aunt Li, Brother Xiao Lin is a molecular biologist. He knows a lot about this field. In some ways, he’s even better than a doctor!” Gu Zhiyao said with a smile.
Looking at Gu Zhiyao's knowing smile, Aunt Li felt a lot of emotions. Although Gu Zhiyao and President He had stopped clashing and their relationship had been harmonious and peaceful for some time, sometimes it felt too peaceful and made her feel uneasy.
As for Gu Zhiyao, she always felt something was off. Even when Gu Zhiyao smiled, it didn't seem like she was smiling genuinely, at least not like the heartfelt smile she was having now.
It seems that Mr. Xiao holds a very important place in Gu Zhiyao's heart.
Since both Xiao Lin and Gu Zhiyao insisted, Aunt Li naturally couldn't stop them. She could only repeatedly remind them to be careful. Gu Zhiyao agreed and then eagerly followed Xiao Lin into the game area.
It's not the weekend, and at this time everyone is either at work or in class. The Ferris wheel is empty except for the two of them.
Gu Zhiyao felt inexplicably at ease entrusting herself to Xiao Lin, perhaps because the trust cultivated back then still remained in her heart after all these years.
Xiao Lin was indeed responsible, taking meticulous care of Gu Zhiyao throughout the entire process. They even sat together in the same cabin. As the Ferris wheel ascended into the sky, Gu Zhiyao's vision blurred.
Xiao Lin held her hand tightly.
They all recalled scenes from many years ago, remembering how they stood in that spot below, looking up at this place, making promises to each other about what was happening now.
My dream has finally come true.
My long-held wish has come true.
As a result, they rode the Ferris wheel three times before getting off.
Xiao Lin gently helped Gu Zhiyao up, his handsome face full of concern, "How are you? Are you alright?"
"It's alright, Brother Xiao Lin, don't worry," Gu Zhiyao said with a smile.
"That's good." Because Xiao Lin had other things to do, he came back this time to cooperate on a project with a pharmaceutical group and arranged to meet later. Gu Zhiyao couldn't stay outside for too long, so they left their contact information and parted ways.
When Gu Zhiyao returned home, she asked Aunt Li, "Aunt Li, please promise me you won't tell them about what happened today?"
Aunt Li naturally understood what she meant and quickly nodded, "Don't worry, don't you still trust me by now? But I'm worried that President He will still find out."
Gu Zhiyao knew that although He Yi had set her free, he would definitely still send people to monitor and follow her, so they would know about Xiao Lin's existence. However, they couldn't hear about the things she and Xiao Lin were plotting, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
She was already planning how to make a request to He Yi next!
"Zhiyao, are you and Mr. Xiao in a good relationship? Will you two..." Aunt Li suddenly asked.
Seeing Aunt Li's guessing expression, Gu Zhiyao did not give a clear answer.
Seeing this, Aunt Li naturally didn't press the matter further. Although she had hoped that Gu Zhiyao and President He could have a happy and fulfilling relationship, given the current situation, it didn't seem so easy.
President He has a woman he likes, and he even married her.
Mr. Xiao seems like a very nice person. He is very polite and cares about Gu Zhiyao. They grew up together. What kind of place is an orphanage? The children there have it tough. It's true that true friendship is revealed in times of hardship. Naturally, the two have precious memories. Gu Zhiyao suddenly went to the Ferris wheel, and despite being so far along in her pregnancy, she rode it with Mr. Xiao, and rode it several times. It's not just about wanting to have fun. There must be a deeper and more special meaning behind it.
It would be a wonderful arrangement for a couple who could be described as childhood sweethearts to get married.
If President He really can't give Gu Zhiyao a good explanation, it would be better to let Gu Zhiyao go with Mr. Xiao; she should be very happy.
Thinking of this, Aunt Li added, "Zhiyao, my feelings have never changed. I will always stand by your side. If you need anything, just tell me. Although I don't have much money, I still have a sense of right and wrong and a kind heart."
"Yes, I know, thank you, Auntie!" Gu Zhiyao said gratefully.
He Yi had indeed received a report from Gu Zhiyao about her meeting with Xiao Lin today.
Quan Xinyu brought the collected information to He Yi's office and presented it to He Yi.
He Yi flipped through the photos, his brows furrowing deeply.
