Marriage First, True Love Later Novel-Chapter 146

Qin Yun hadn’t been able to find time to visit Anran for the past few days because of Eleven’s activities with the group. However, she still called every day to ask about Anran’s basic situation. Lin xiaofen had already officially retired, so she would cook some soup and bring some small cakes to Anran when she had nothing to do. Ever since Anran’s background was completely revealed, Lin xiaofen looked more relaxed, and the smile on her face increased.

She didn’t ask su Yicheng about Tong Wenhai’s matter, and su Yicheng didn’t mention it to her either. However, she did read in the newspaper that he had received a major punishment and had stopped all his work. As for whether such a punishment was reasonable or if he had found someone else to pull some strings with, she didn’t know the details, nor did she have the intention to know.

Sitting in the study, Anran flipped through the architectural magazine she had bought before. She hadn’t been in contact with these things for a few months, and she felt a little rusty. The last time Xiao Yingtian asked her to help with a project, it wasn’t that she wasn’t interested, but she was thinking about the child. In addition, she didn’t want su Yicheng to worry about her while he was busy with work, so when Xiao Yingtian called her just now to ask about the result of her consideration, she directly refused.

However, she did recommend Chen Cheng to Xiao Yingtian. She had always thought that Chen Cheng was very talented and had a special feeling about design. She was just too young and inexperienced. As long as she was given time and space to practice, she would definitely bring unexpected surprises to everyone.

“Knock, knock, knock ...” There was a knock on the door of the study. Aunt Zhang came in with hot milk. &Quot; Madam, it’s time to drink milk. &Quot;

“Thank you, Mrs. Zhang.” Anran thanked him, closed the magazine in her hand, and reached out to take the milk.

Sometimes, when she was bored, she would think that it was a good thing that she didn’t reject the taste of milk. Otherwise, she would be depressed for a few months if she drank a few glasses a day. Only when she was pregnant did she truly understand the greatness of being a mother. However, no matter how hard it was, when her hand was on her stomach, when the baby moved, everything became so beautiful. At that moment, she felt that no matter how hard it was, it was worth it.

Aunt Zhang took Anran’s empty glass of milk. She looked at the time and asked, ” “Madam, aren’t you taking an afternoon nap today?”

An ran had slept for a short while in the morning, so she wasn’t sleepy at all. “Wait, I don’t feel like sleeping yet,” he said.

“Yes.” Mrs. Zhang gently nodded and pushed the wheelchair out of the study.

Anran put the magazine back on the shelf behind her. Then, she tried to pick up another book to read, but she couldn’t find anything that she wanted to read. Su Yicheng had a lot of books in his collection, but they were all too boring. They were all long paragraphs of descriptions, and Anran didn’t have the desire to continue reading.

She turned around again and opened the drawer of the desk. From the way the desk was tidied up, su Yicheng was a rigorous person. The documents were sorted out and placed in a neat and orderly manner. Even the drawers were neatly packed.

When he was bored, he found the ‘marriage agreement’ that she had printed in the drawer.

......

Looking at the ‘husband and wife agreement’ in her hand, which had been added by a certain someone slyly, Anran couldn’t help but shake her hair and laugh. She laughed and cursed softly, ” liar,’treacherous official’! &Quot;

Her hand fondled the paper back and forth with some nostalgia. She looked at the agreement in her hand, then looked at her bulging belly. It was amazing just thinking about it. It had only been a short time, and it was really like what su Yicheng had said-fate was really an incredible thing.

Suddenly, she had the urge to take out their marriage certificate to take a look. She still remembered the shock she felt when she saw his name on the marriage certificate. She never thought that she would have mistaken him for someone else. However, it was also thanks to the misunderstanding back then that she felt so happy now.

She took out the two red marriage certificates from the innermost drawer and flipped them open to look at the distant photo of the two of them. Anran couldn’t help but laugh. “Hehe.”

When he looked at the time of the signing, he suddenly realized that time had passed really quickly. It turned out that half a year had passed without him realizing it.

“So, we’ve been married for half a year.” Anran touched their photo on the marriage certificate and murmured in a low voice.

Looking at the photos, she missed them even more.

After National Day, su Yicheng seemed to have become busier, and leaving early and returning late every day seemed to have become the norm in his life. The two of them lived in the same room every day, but Anran had the illusion that she hadn’t seen him for a long time. Every morning when she woke up, su Yicheng was already gone, and every night when she went to bed, he was still not back. As a result, she always missed his time. If it weren’t for the fact that su Yicheng made breakfast for her every morning before going out, she would’ve missed him. An ran really didn’t know if he had returned the night before.

She took out her phone and found his number. She was about to call him, but she was afraid that she would disturb his work, so she sent a text message instead.

Su Yicheng’s call came in less than a minute after she sent the text message.

Looking at the flashing caller ID, Anran couldn’t help but smile.

He reached out and picked up the call. &Quot; Hello. &Quot; Her voice was so sweet that she didn’t even realize that her tone was full of coquettishness.

“Did you miss me?” Su Yicheng’s gentle voice came from the other side of the phone. There was a slight smile in his voice, and it sounded very comfortable and pleasant to the ear.

“I’m not.” Anran refused to admit it, but her slender fingers caressed the small photo on the marriage certificate back and forth, and there was a beautiful smile on the corners of her mouth.

On the other end of the phone, su Yicheng didn’t get angry. He just sighed softly and said, ” “But I miss you.” His voice was low and magnetic. It was especially bewitching when she heard him say such sweet words.

An ran’s heart throbbed, and she said unconsciously, ” “I missed you too.”

“Hehe.” Upon hearing this, su Yicheng chuckled on the other end of the phone, and his mood seemed to have improved a lot.

Anran didn’t mind. She really did miss him a little. She held her phone and murmured softly, ” &Quot; Yicheng, what should I do? why do I feel like I haven’t seen you in a long time? ”

“I’m sorry, I’ve been a little busy recently.” Every time he went back, she was already asleep. When he woke up, she was still asleep. He didn’t bear to wake her up, but the two of them didn’t say a word for a few days.

“I just looked at our marriage certificate. It turns out that today is our half-year wedding anniversary.” An ran muttered.

“I’ll go back earlier tonight.” Su Yicheng could hear the loneliness and longing in her tone, so he said this over the phone.

“Really?” Anran didn’t quite believe it. She knew how busy he had been at work recently, because Ling Chuanjiang’s incident had happened too suddenly. He didn’t have a candidate for the mayor at all, and now, he had to let su Yicheng handle some of the mayor’s Affairs on his behalf. He already had a lot of things to do, and now that he had a new position, he naturally had even more things to do. “Don’t delay your work because of me. I’m just saying.” 𝒇𝗿𝙚ℯ𝑤ℯ𝑏𝒏𝑜ѵe𝙡.c𝐨ｍ

Su Yicheng chuckled, and because of her understanding, he only said, ” &Quot; we’re almost done for today. There’s a dinner party tonight, and Secretary Zheng can go on my behalf. I’ll go back to accompany you in the morning. &Quot;

“It really won’t affect your work?” Anran was still a little worried, because she knew that su Yicheng knew that in order to make her happy, even if he had a lot of unfinished work, he would accompany her first, and then she would stay up late to work overtime. As his wife, she couldn’t share his work burden, but at least she couldn’t cause him any more burden.

“It’s fine.” Su Yi said in a low voice, ” Anran, I also want to have a good meal with you. &Quot;

Hearing this, an ran didn’t say anything more and only agreed softly.

After hanging up the phone, Anran went out to look for Mrs. Zhang. Mrs. Zhang was watching TV in the living room after she finished cleaning.

“Mrs. Zhang, teach me how to cook!” An ran said with anticipation. In the evening, she was going to personally cook dinner.

In fact, Anran herself felt embarrassed when it came to learning how to cook. She hadn’t worked for two months, and she was ashamed to say that she hadn’t learned how to cook a single dish in such a long time. Although it wasn’t as if her cooking skills had made no progress at all, she was still able to keep the dishes from burning, but the taste was still not flattering. Su Yicheng was the only one who was willing to eat all the terrible dishes she made. There probably wouldn’t be anyone else in this world who would be willing to eat them.

“Why are you thinking about cooking again? didn’t Sir tell you not to cook last time?” aunt Zhang laughed. The last time Anran accidentally cut her hand when she was cutting vegetables with a knife, although the wound wasn’t big or deep, su Yicheng’s heart still ached for her when he found out, and he told her not to learn.

&Quot; it’s fine. It was an accident last time. I didn’t pay attention to it. &Quot; Anran said nonchalantly, ” today is our half-year wedding anniversary. I just called Yicheng. He promised to come back earlier to have dinner with me. I want to cook it myself. Mrs. Zhang, can you teach me from the side? ” I don’t know how much seasoning I should put in it, so it’s either too salty or too bland every time I cook it. ”

Mrs. Zhang had been helping out for two months now, and she was already used to seeing the sweet love between the couple. She also envied their relationship from the bottom of her heart. Compared to her son and daughter-in-law, who had to quarrel all day long over a small matter, she really liked the way Anran and su Yicheng got along. 𝑓𝙧𝘦𝘦we𝘣𝙣𝘰𝘃𝗲l.com

She took the remote control from the table, turned off the TV, stood up, and looked at Anran with a smile. &Quot; “Alright, I’ll teach you.”

“Yes.” Anran smiled and nodded. &Quot; Mrs. Zhang, you just have to stand by and teach me how to do it. Watch me and don’t make me make any mistakes in the steps or put the wrong seasoning. &Quot;

Mrs. Zhang nodded. &Quot; okay, I’ll only say that I won’t use my hands. &Quot;

Because Anran’s movements were slow and her hands were unfamiliar, she was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to make it in time, so even though there were still a few hours before night fell, Anran started to prepare early.

Mrs. Zhang was in charge of running errands and going to the supermarket to buy all the ingredients for dinner.

Mrs. Zhang understood that she was pregnant and was afraid that she would be sleepy if she didn’t sleep at noon, so she suggested that she prepare the materials so that she could start cooking when she woke up.

However, Anran stubbornly refused. She really wanted to make dinner herself, so she did everything herself, from washing the vegetables to processing the ingredients.

Under Mrs. Zhang’s instructions, she prepared all the ingredients, and then made each dish according to the steps Mrs. Zhang had taught her. When they were all ready, Anran took a bite. The taste wasn’t very good, but it wasn’t too bad, and it definitely wasn’t too hard to swallow. It was much better than the ones she had made before. By the time all these dishes were done, it was already past five o ‘clock. According to her estimation, su Yicheng would be home around six O’ clock, so the dishes would still be warm at that time, just in time to go with rice.

It could be considered a candlelight dinner for the two of them. Anran specifically asked Zhang Sao to get off work early. Zhang Sao saw through her thoughts and winked at her suggestively. Then, she laughed and went home with her old-fashioned bag.

After aunt Zhang left, Anran took out the candles and candlesticks that su Yicheng had prepared for her and placed them on the bar counter. She then used the remote control to adjust the lights in the room to a very romantic and sentimental light. She even went into her room and changed into a beautiful maternity dress. It was light yellow in color and was a straight knee-length skirt. There was a waist-tight design in the middle and a bow tie on the back. It was a simple and generous style that was quite pleasing to the eye. It was especially comfortable to wear.

After changing her clothes, she went into the bathroom and wiped some lip gloss on herself to make herself look more energetic.

Looking at herself in the mirror, Anran suddenly stopped what she was doing, then laughed out loud. It was funny just thinking about it. She placed her hand on her chest, and she could clearly feel her heart beating faster and faster. She was actually a little nervous. It felt like they were holding hands for the first time, hugging each other for the first time, and kissing each other for the first time. Her heart was beating faster and faster. She was nervous, but also a little excited. This feeling ... She had experienced it when she first started dating mo Fei. At that time, she was still na?ve and frightened by this kind of heartbeat and throbbing. She pulled Lin Li in a panic and asked her if she was sick. Lin Li even laughed at her rudely, saying that she wasn’t sick. It was just that she had caused lovesickness. She even went back to the dormitory and announced it with a loudspeaker. A few days later, the whole class and even the whole school knew that she and Mo Fei were in a relationship. However, things had already changed when she looked back.

He placed his other hand on his bulging stomach and muttered in a low voice, ” &Quot; baby, don’t you think mommy is so useless? daddy only promised to come back earlier tonight to have dinner with us and mommy is as happy as a child. She’s so useless, isn’t she? ”

She didn’t know if it was really a response, but the two little guys in her belly actually responded to an ran’s exclamation.

An ran was a little touched, and her hand followed the direction of the movement to stroke her stomach. She said with a smile, ” “You guys think so too! I haven’t seen dad for a few days, and I really miss him. You guys miss him too, don’t you?”

It was as if he really understood Anran’s words. After Anran finished speaking, he kicked her in the stomach twice more. The force was much stronger than the previous times, and it was very obvious to everyone. An ran chuckled, her face full of happiness and satisfaction.

This fetal movement might have been a coincidence, but this coincidence made Anran particularly happy. She hummed a little tune as she sat on the sofa in the living room and waited for su Yicheng to come back. When she was bored, she would touch her belly with her hand and talk to her babies. Time passed by little by little, and the sky outside quickly darkened. Su Yicheng still hadn’t returned by six O ‘clock.

Anran thought that he probably wasn’t done with his work yet, so she didn’t call him. He was still sitting in the living room, waiting, flipping through magazines, or watching TV.

More than an hour passed, and su Yicheng still hadn’t returned by seven O ‘clock. Anran’s stomach was a little hungry at this time, and it grumbled in protest. She pouted her mouth and frowned slightly. She reached out and gently patted her big belly and said softly, ” &Quot; can we wait a little longer? daddy will be back soon. Let’s wait for him to come back and have a meal together. We haven’t had a meal with him in a long time. &Quot;

Just like that, another hour passed. When it was eight O ‘clock, the door still hadn’t been opened from the outside. The smile on Anran’s face slowly faded away, and it was slowly replaced by worry and uneasiness.

She picked up her phone and called su Yicheng, but no one picked up after the phone rang for a long time.

Anran didn’t know what had happened to su Yicheng, so she just comforted herself by saying that he was probably still busy or in a meeting, and that he didn’t have time to call her to inform her of the situation.

This way, Anran’s worry was reduced by half. She had been busy preparing dinner with Mrs. Zhang in the afternoon, so she didn’t even eat any snacks. Right now, her stomach was really hungry, and because she was pregnant, Anran didn’t dare to be too careless. She got up and went to the kitchen to pour herself a glass of milk and warm it up to fill her stomach. Then, she sat back in the living room and waited for su Yicheng to come back.

As he waited, his eyelids became heavier and heavier. He couldn’t keep them open bit by bit. Slowly, they closed, and his consciousness began to become hazy. He was really sleepy. He had spent almost the entire afternoon in the kitchen, so he naturally didn’t have time to take a nap.

Just like that, she hugged the pillow and fell asleep on the sofa in a daze.

Anran didn’t know how long she had slept, but when she woke up, the lights in the room were still on. The dinner on the bar counter was already as cold as water, and even the red candle was half-burned. She took her phone and looked at the time. It was already 10:30, but su Yicheng still hadn’t returned. She called him again, but still, no one picked up.

Anran was worried, but she couldn’t do anything about it. At this moment, she blamed herself for not asking for his office number and Secretary Zheng’s number. Otherwise, if she couldn’t find him, she could have asked Secretary Zheng about it. In fact, it was mainly because he had done too well in the past. No matter how busy he was, he had never made her unable to find him.

He made several calls in a row, but no one answered.

She got up helplessly and took the preservation film to keep the food on the bar table fresh. Perhaps he would be back soon, or perhaps he had not eaten when he came back, so she could heat it up and eat it.

At this moment, Anran no longer felt hungry except for worry. She sat on the sofa in the living room, holding her promise and waiting. Her eyes were staring straight at the door, as if the door would be opened in the next moment, and su Yicheng would come in from outside with a smile.

She waited and waited, and after an unknown period of time, her eyelids began to feel heavier and heavier. Finally, she couldn’t resist the sleepiness and fell asleep on the sofa in a daze.

In her sleep, Anran only felt a wave of dizziness, then her eyelids moved slightly, and she slowly woke up. In her daze, she only saw su Yicheng’s handsome face in front of her, and at this moment, he was holding her in his arms.

“Yichen?” Anran murmured and reached out to touch his face gently to make sure it wasn’t a dream. The person holding her at the moment was su Yicheng.

Su Yicheng turned his head and gently smiled at her, but he said apologetically, ” “I’m sorry I’m late,” He carried her into the room and gently placed her on the bed.

Anran looked at him and said, a little aggrieved, ” &Quot; I’ve been waiting for you for a long time. I called you but no one picked up. I didn’t even know if anything happened to you. I was so worried. &Quot;

Upon hearing this, su Yicheng lowered his head and kissed her forehead, then murmured, ” &Quot; I’m sorry. Something happened at the last minute and I left my phone in the office. That’s why I didn’t get your nod. I’m sorry to make you so worried. &Quot;

Anran shook her head, a faint smile on her lips, and only asked, ” “Have you settled the matter? Are you okay now?” She was just worried that he didn’t know what had happened to him. Now that he was back and knew that he was fine, she was relieved.

Su Yicheng nodded lightly at her and said, ” “Yes, it’s all settled. It’s fine now.”

Anran smiled slightly. Suddenly, she thought of something and tried to sit up. She asked, ” “Did you eat tonight? Did you forget?”

Su Yicheng smiled and pressed her down to prevent her from getting up, saying, ” “Don’t get up. Don’t worry about me. I’ll make something to eat.”

Anran shook her head, touched her belly, and stuck out her tongue playfully. &Quot; “I haven’t eaten yet either. I’m also hungry.”

Hearing this, su Yicheng frowned and said in disagreement, ” “It’s already so late and you haven’t eaten. Don’t you know you’re pregnant? You’re so good at starving!”

Anran pouted. &Quot; I wanted to wait for you to come back, ” she said. &Quot; I didn’t know you wouldn’t come back. &Quot;

With a soft sigh, su Yicheng touched her face and said, ” “You’re different. Don’t wait for me in the future. At the very least, don’t wait for me on an empty stomach, okay?”

Anran nodded and then said with a smile, ” &Quot; I made all the dishes tonight. They’re in the refrigerator. Take them out and heat them up. They’ll be ready to eat. They taste good. &Quot; His tone was filled with pride.

Su Yicheng also laughed, pinched her nose, and said, ” “I’ll go heat up the food. Don’t get up, I’ll bring it over for you later.”

An ran nodded and smiled with satisfaction.

When she woke up the next morning, su Yicheng had already gone to work. While Anran was brushing her teeth, Lin Li’s phone call came in, and she sounded very anxious.

“An Zi, did you see the video on the internet today?”
