The CEO is domineering, the devil Boss is addicted to pampering

Chapter 1113 Star Wish: Love and Means

On the rooftop, the father and son seemed to reveal all their concerns and expectations through their eyes and tacit understanding, as if they had already talked about all the things that were hidden in the dark and entangled in their hearts.

However, when they dragged their slightly heavy steps and returned to the door of the ward step by step, an invisible yet suffocating atmosphere hit them in the face. Compared with when they went out before, the atmosphere was even more solemn, as if the air was filled with suffocating particles.

They paused, stood at the door, and unconsciously peeked inside through the small square piece of glass.

Inside the ward, Ye Muxue was sitting beside the bed, slightly leaning towards Su Xingya, with her lips slightly parted, as if whispering something to her.

Her expression revealed a bit of concern, and seemed to be mixed with some unspeakable worry. Her voice could be faintly heard through the crack in the door, but it was not clear. It was like a string of mysterious spells, stirring the hearts of the father and son.

The father and son stood quietly at the door of the ward, and no one broke the silence first. Time seemed to freeze, and yet seemed to be infinitely stretched. They stayed there for a long while before they seemed to have gathered enough courage. They slowly reached out their hands and turned the doorknob leading to the world inside the ward.

With a creaky sound, the door slowly opened. The subtle sound seemed particularly abrupt in this quiet space.

As soon as she entered the door, Ye Muxue seemed to have sensed something and immediately came forward.

She first looked at Gu Mingcheng, and that look seemed to be silently communicating everything that had just happened in the ward, conveying information that only they and their husband and wife could understand.

Then, she turned her gaze to her son and gave Gu Yunqian a meaningful look. There was warning, heartache, and hidden worry about the future in that look. It was like a complicated puzzle, which made Gu Yunqian a little confused for a moment.

After Ye Muxue moved aside, Gu Yunqian looked anxiously towards the bed.

Su Xingya was seen lying on the bed, looking even paler than when she left. She looked almost transparently tired, as if all her energy had been drained out of her. She sank weakly into the white quilt like a flower that was about to wither.

The faint smile that originally remained at the corner of her mouth quickly disappeared the moment she saw Gu Yunqian, as if it had never appeared, and was replaced by a look of indifference and alienation.

At that moment, Gu Yunqian felt empty in his heart, as if a cold wind blew past and blew away all the warmth and expectations in his heart.

A trace of embarrassment quickly flashed across his face, and the discomfort spread from the corners of his eyes and eyebrows. He didn't dare to look into Gu Mingcheng's eyes, for fear of seeing the hint of "as expected" in his father's eyes.

Just this little episode before and after entering the door was like a loud slap in the face, enough to prove that Gu Mingcheng's previous worries on the rooftop were correct. Su Xingya's heart might not be easily warmed up by him.

But the unyielding spirit in Gu Yunqian's bones burned again after this moment of loneliness.

He thought again, a child has to be gestated in the mother's womb for a full ten months before being born. Isn't this long time his last chance?

He still has ten months to try his best to inspire Su Xingya's maternal love bit by bit.

After all, he himself had grown up under Ye Muxue's careful care and company. He knew that the power of maternal love was endless. As long as he could awaken the latent tenderness in Su Xingya's heart, perhaps everything could turn around...

But Gu Yunqian was so full of expectations that he completely forgot all the key details of the past.

Back then, Ye Muxue took him to France alone. They were forced by the situation and had no other choice.

There are undercurrents in the family, and various forces are competing against each other. The young boy is at the center of the vortex and his situation is precarious.

Ye Muxue knew very well that if she didn't leave, the child would have a hard time growing up in this dark and dangerous environment, which was definitely not what she wanted to see.

So, she gritted her teeth and resolutely took Gu Yunqian away from home, just to give him a stable and pure space to grow.

What's more, Gu Yunqian's birth was the result of the deep and passionate love between his parents. That love was like the bright stars, illuminating their way forward and giving birth to him, the fruit of their love.

And now, the child in Su Xingya's belly was, from the very beginning, just a helpless means for Gu Yunqian to try to keep a woman.

The starting points of the two are completely different. One is the natural continuation of love, and the other is done deliberately with a purpose. Just like two streams starting from different sources, they are destined to flow in different directions. How can we expect to have the same ending?

However, things have come to this point. This drama about children, about love, and about retention has already begun. How can it be stopped easily?

Gu Yunqian is already deeply trapped in it. The stubbornness in his bones has taken over, and he will only sink deeper and deeper into it. He will run wildly along the path he has chosen, and he is unwilling to turn back even if the road ahead is full of thorns.

When she was in the third month of pregnancy, Gu Yunqian made a bold move. He posted Su Xingya's ultrasound report on the social platform. The small black and white image carried his vision and hope for the future and instantly caused an uproar.

Soon after that, he began to frequently share his daily life accompanying his mother during childbirth.

In the photos, he takes care of Su Xingya every day without taking off his clothes, carefully handing her a cup of warm water, or gently helping her adjust her sleeping position. The concern and love in his eyes are beyond words, as if declaring to the world how much he cherishes this relationship and this upcoming new life.

As the pregnancy progressed, Su Xingya's body also quietly changed.

She found it increasingly difficult to fall asleep, and every night seemed like a long and arduous battle.

She lay in bed, tossing and turning, looking at Gu Yunqian who was dozing off beside her, with mixed feelings in her heart. After a moment, she slowly reached out her hand and gently stroked her slightly bulging belly. At that moment, a wonderful feeling came over her heart, as if she had a close connection with the little life in her belly.

She also used to browse her phone in her spare time and saw many pregnant mothers sharing their pregnancy experiences online. They all said that pregnancy for a woman is like going through a life-and-death ordeal, and the first things to change are her figure and appearance.

But when she looked down at herself, she realized that after so much time had passed, her belly was still smooth, without those annoying stretch marks. Compared with other pregnant women, she was really lucky.

In fact, as time went by, she could clearly feel the baby's gentle movements in her belly. That tiny movement, like the fluttering of a butterfly's wings, caused huge waves in her heart.

Sometimes, when it was late at night and her mind was wandering, she couldn't help but wonder what it would be like if she spent the rest of her life like this.

There will be a warm daily life, with the children's laughter lingering in the ears, Gu Yunqian is still by their side, and the family enjoys the joy of family life.

However, this idea was like a fleeting meteor in the night sky, coming and going quickly.

Su Xingya quickly came to her senses, realizing that this was just a momentary fantasy. The constraints of reality and her inner desires were pulling at each other, causing her unbearable pain.

So, she quickly pulled herself away from those chaotic thoughts, and then closed her eyes heavily, trying to calm herself down. Only the chaotic breathing sprayed in the air, breaking the silence of the night.

Gu Yunqian, who was lying beside him, seemed to sense something as well. He frowned in his sleep, as if he was troubled by something.

Not long after, when he woke up from his dream, he saw the peaceful sleeping face of a woman. The moonlight shone through the window onto her face, outlining a soft outline. At that moment, his heart seemed to be gently touched by something, but also mixed with a bit of uneasiness about the future...
