Chapter 218: Chapter 143: She’s actually pregnant with a second child! [Big Chapter, 4000 words]_2
It really is a happy occasion.
If Ye Fan knew, he would be overjoyed.
Bai Susu was somewhat impatient to share the good news with Ye Fan.
Today, Ye Fan wasn’t at home; he had something to attend to and was dealing with matters with Mr. Zhuge.
Otherwise, he definitely would have come with her.
“That’s fantastic, I just knew it must be pregnancy. Let’s go home. I’ll make you some delicious food,” Mother Ye said happily, holding Bai Susu’s hand, very excited.
That’s wonderful!
The little ones will have a new little brother or sister.
Little Fourth won’t be the youngest anymore.
You see, although Little Fourth is the youngest, each time she’s a bit defiant, she feels regret and wonders why she couldn’t have come out a few seconds earlier.
The little one is naturally very active, almost like a boy in character.
This time, if Little Fourth knew, she would be really happy. She’s finally not the youngest anymore.
“Thank you, mom, heh heh,” Bai Susu said with a smile.
Mother Ye was truly good to her.
No matter what it’s about, whether it’s food or anything else, she’s always the first one Mother Ye thinks about. Though called a daughter-in-law, she is treated just like a biological daughter.
Even her own biological parents had never done so for her.
Therefore, Bai Susu truly loved her current life and also the people by her side.
These were all very important people to her.
“Silly child, it’s going to be tough on you again this time, but don’t worry, mom will take good care of you,” Mother Ye said, reaching out to stroke Bai Susu’s somewhat pale cheeks affectionately.
This Susu has been vomiting so much these past few days, she’s hardly eaten anything. Looking at her, she’s lost some weight, and her complexion isn’t looking very good either.
“No, I feel very blessed,” Bai Susu said, reaching out to hold Mother Ye’s wrist tenderly.
She truly felt blessed.
Because of Ye Fan, she had all this affection, the warmth and comfort she had always longed for.
“Silly child, let’s go. You haven’t been eating well these past days, and your complexion looks a bit off. This time, the vomiting has been so severe, I’ll stew some black chicken with goji berries and red dates soup for you, to nourish you,” Mother Ye said with a smile.
With that, the two of them left the hospital, heading towards home.
They were escorted out by a bodyguard driving them.
But, just as Bai Susu and Ye Fan were leaving the hospital, they came across someone they should not have seen.
Mother Ye did not recognize her, but Bai Susu did.
This…
How could she run into her here?
“What a coincidence, Bai Susu. I have something to tell you,” Xia Lili said, her eyes filled with envy.
All of this should have been hers.
It was Bai Susu who took everything from her.
But now, she had come to terms with it.
It’s all fate.
“You are?” Mother Ye asked Xia Lili.
“Auntie hello, my name is Xia Lili,” Xia Lili replied with a slight smile, though she looked a bit haggard.
“Hello,” Mother Ye always felt that the name sounded familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere before.
But, she couldn’t quite remember it at the moment.
“Let’s talk over there. Mom, please wait here for me. I’ll be back soon,” Bai Susu said to Mother Ye.
“Okay, go on, be careful!” Mother Ye said.
Bai Susu and Xia Lili moved to a spot not far away, just five or six meters’ distance.
Mother Ye could keep an eye on them from a distance, so she didn’t have to worry too much.
This Xia Lili, the more Mother Ye thought about it, the more the name sounded familiar.
Meanwhile, Xia Lili was somewhat surprised.
She hadn’t expected that Bai Susu would really agree to talk to her.
“I’m surprised, I didn’t think you would agree to talk with me,” Xia Lili said.
“There’s no need to be surprised. I know all about it, you are Ye Fan’s girlfriend, and you’ve been dating for over a month. Just say what you want to say,” Bai Susu said, her tone very calm.
She knew that Ye Fan had told her everything about the past.
This Xia Lili, she was the one who had given up Ye Fan initially, so what did she want now?
Besides, three or four years had already passed.
“Actually, it’s nothing much. I just wanted to say that I regret things from before. If that incident hadn’t happened, maybe your current position would be mine. Bai Susu, please love Ye Fan well. He’s a good man,” Xia Lili spoke slowly.
Then, she sighed deeply.
Yes, indeed.
If only we hadn’t broken up back then, how wonderful that would have been.
Frankly, I was the one who initiated the breakup, so my current predicament is of my own doing.
No one else is to blame!
“You came all this way to tell me this? I think this is quite unnecessary!” said Bai Susu, her voice cold yet tinged with a hint of amusement.
Heh heh~
To be honest, Xia Lili did nothing wrong, and neither did Ye Fan!
It’s just fate playing tricks on us, I guess!
However, bumping into me today and saying all these things does seem superfluous.
My own husband, how could I, Bai Susu, not love him dearly?
And besides, I don’t need someone else to judge whether my husband is good or not; as long as I think he’s good, that’s enough.
“Indeed, it does seem a bit unnecessary. I’m getting married too, so, I’ve moved on from the past and wish you happiness!” Xia Lili finished speaking and then turned to leave.
In reality, she had been brooding over the breakup for years, always thinking how nice it would have been if she hadn’t broken up with Ye Fan.
But then, returning to reality, it was all just a daydream.
There is no medicine for regret in this world.
So, what’s missed is missed!
There’s simply no way to go back to the starting point.
She truly regretted not treasuring Ye Fan more when she had the chance.
Bai Susu watched Xia Lili’s retreating figure, her feelings growing complicated for a moment.
“Susu, what’s wrong?” Mother Ye came up to Bai Susu’s side. Seeing that Bai Susu looked troubled, she asked with concern.
What had that girl said to her daughter-in-law just now?
Why such an expression all of a sudden.
“Mom, it’s nothing; let’s go home!” Bai Susu said with a smile, taking Mother Ye’s arm.
“Alright, alright, let’s go, home!”
Mother Ye also breathed a sigh of relief; no trouble, that’s good!
Xia Lili watched the extremely close mother-in-law and daughter-in-law pair from around the corner, feeling nothing but envy in her heart.
After all, that happiness wasn’t hers.
~~~~~
Once home, Mother Ye began to make black chicken soup for Bai Susu. Initially wanting to help, Bai Susu was shooed out of the kitchen by Mother Ye.
On the pretext that pregnant women shouldn’t enter the kitchen!
With no other choice, Bai Susu settled on the couch, watching Mother Ye’s busy figure.
How nice!
Her heart was filled with warmth.
“Mommy, Mommy, why are you just staring at Grandma?” Ye Bing asked his mother, Bai Susu, curiously.
Indeed!
Grandma was cooking in the kitchen, so why was his mother just staring at Grandma’s back, eyes growing red.
What was that about?
“Silly child, I’m just happy. Everything that I have now, I cherish and care for very much!” Bai Susu answered.
“Oh, I don’t quite understand!” Ye Bing tilted his little head, looking puzzled.
“Where are your sisters?” Bai Susu asked.
How come it was only Ye Bing left among the little ones?
“They’re all playing in the yard, playing hide and seek with Niuniu,” said Ye Bing sweetly.
That’s right!
They were hiding and Niuniu was seeking.
He was playing too, but got thirsty so he came in to drink some water, and then saw his mother Bai Susu intently watching Grandma’s back.
“Go and play with them,” Bai Susu said, patting the child’s head.
“Okay, I’m off then!” Ye Bing kissed Bai Susu’s cheek and dashed off.
Bai Susu smiled, her treasure, her little cotton-padded jacket indeed.
After sitting for a while, Bai Susu couldn’t stay put any longer, so she left the house to take a seat on the swing in the yard and began to sway leisurely,
Looking at the children playing so happily not too far away, she couldn’t help but smile.
Wait a minute, it’s actually true.
Niuniu was indeed earnestly seeking them and even pinpointed their locations.
Was Niuniu really just an ordinary Little Red Bird?
Something seemed off!
Had she overlooked something?
