Chapter 481: Starlight Awards Ceremony (3)
"True to President Su’s style, not only in personality but in status as well—she truly receives Queen-level treatment," Pan Yan remarked to Kang Zhong outside the office. Kang Zhong’s face stiffened for a moment before he couldn’t help complaining inwardly about Qin Jiran.
He was delighted that President Su had found such a perfect man to love and care for her so attentively, but did they have to flaunt it in front of his girlfriend? Such comparisons really put one in a helpless position, and he had no desire to be teased by his girlfriend because of them!
Although he was reluctant to admit it, he had to acknowledge that Qin Jiran’s presence, and especially his tender and thoughtful care for Su Yanyi, made his own journey to win over his wife even more fraught and difficult!
In the evening, Su Yanyi and Qin Jiran left work together and Qin Jiran safely escorted her home. But before the two had a chance to change clothes, Mother Su showed up.
"Yanyi, don’t change the subject. How long have you been pregnant, and have you gone for a checkup? Should Mom arrange for a doctor for you? Pregnancy is no small matter; you have to take it seriously!" Mother Su asked a multitude of questions with such determination that this time, she would not be sidetracked by Yanyi.
"I’ve just gotten pregnant, less than half a month. No checkup; it’s too early. We’ll go after a while. Is that okay, Mom?" Su Yanyi knew she couldn’t avoid it and answered her mother’s questions directly and skillfully avoided lying—for being pregnant for even a day is technically "less than half a month."
Mother Su frowned, sensing something off about the answer, but after thinking it over, she couldn’t pinpoint exactly what it was. The only puzzle for her was how Yanyi had discovered her pregnancy so early, knowing that many women only realize they’re pregnant after a month or two.
