Part 2 《Dongtu Datang》Chapter 96: Pregnant 3

’s go back to the hotel first. Figure out if you’re truly apologizing or just doing it out of pressure.” His voice and attitude were cold, treating her like a subordinate rather than a mother. The to...What does it mean to have an acceptance process

What does it mean that Mr. Gu respects you very much

Cuiping looked at her light and swift figure running down the stairs, feeling very envious. Being so protected by Mr. Gu, she had no idea that this home had gone through such a storm while she was unaware.

Things happened three days ago. Cuiping regularly helps them sort out expired medicine and some daily necessities, and she makes a list for them to see if they need to buy more.

That day, they cleaned out a basket of bottles and jars from their master bedroom, mostly things belonging to YaoYao. Some were vitamins she usually took, and some were skincare products.

When she came down from upstairs, she happened to meet Mrs. Gu and saw that there were many unopened expired skincare products, which made her feel a little heartbroken: "Don't throw them away first, let me take a look."

Any random bottle or can would cost thousands if sold individually. It's a shame to just throw them away, so I thought about using them as hand cream containers instead.

< CuiPing then put the basket of things there and went to do other things. >

Mother Gu, usually idle, had been watching too many soap operas. She always said that art comes from life. For some reason, when she saw the expired bottle of vitamins, an idea flashed through her mind. She opened the bottle and took out a vitamin tablet to examine it for a long time. There was a line of small letters on the tiny vitamin tablet. She didn't understand English, so she went online with her phone, typing in one letter at a time. Halfway through, the rest of the keywords popped up.

The pill is birth control, where is the vitamin. Her face immediately paled, she called over Cuiping and questioned her.

“What kind of vitamins does Yaoyao usually eat”

Yes, she always eats this brand.

Needless to say, it's obvious she's secretly taking birth control pills from Gu Ruandong. Otherwise, there wouldn't be a need to switch them into the vitamin bottle.

Mrs. Gu's anger flared, a burning mixture of betrayal and hurt at being disrespected. She clutched the bottle tightly in her hand, sitting motionless in the living room from afternoon into the fading light of dusk.

That night, Yaoyao had to go home very late after filming a night scene. Gu Ruandong went home from work and prepared to change his clothes before picking her up. As soon as he got home, a bottle smashed in the dimly lit corner of the living room and landed at his feet, rolling around. The lights in the living room turned on with the impact.

Gu Ruandong looked coldly at his mother. This was the first time since he came of age that his mother had dared to speak to him with such anger.

Mrs. Gu was usually meek and always afraid of her son, but this time she had reached her limit and could bear it no longer.

"That's how you spoil her, isn't it"

Gu Ruandong was puzzled, "What's wrong"

Mrs. Gu strode over and picked up the bottles from the ground, throwing them into his hands: “Look for yourself, look carefully at what kind of medicine this is. You spoiled her, and this is how she treats you”

Gu Ruan looked grim, twisting open the bottle and pouring out two pills. The letters were small, but in the bright light, he could see them clearly: "English contraceptive." The words were painfully obvious.

He lowered his eyelids to look at the contraceptive pills in his palm, his expression betraying no emotion. After a few seconds, he raised his eyes to meet his mother's gaze: "Is there a problem I made her take them."

Gu's mother froze in place, her expression shifting from anger to disbelief to despair and resignation.

“Gu Ruandong, Gu Ruandong, you're just deceiving yourself.”

Responding to her was Gu Ruandong's back as he walked upstairs.

In the dim light, Cui Ping emerged from the shadows. She silently poured her a cup of warm water and quietly took away those bottles and jars, as if nothing had happened at all.

Mrs. Gu had completely lost hope. The look in his eyes when he last looked at her clearly showed that he was defending Lu Yaoyao and warning her not to interfere in their marital affairs.

She should have realized long ago that this son was as good as nonexistent. What did it matter to her what he did Even if she had grandchildren, besides the title of grandmother, what else would she get Grandparent-child relationships don't exist.

Mother Gu had a great awakening this time. Although she didn't return to the capital in the next few days, she avoided them as a couple, trying to avoid meeting at all costs.

All of this, Cuiping saw with her own eyes. Anyone could see that it was Yaoyao who was secretly taking birth control pills.

It's natural to be curious, how does Mr. Gu plan to handle this A normal man couldn't possibly endure it, could he This is probably also the reason why Mrs. Gu hasn't returned to Beijing all this time.

Result, Cui Ping saw the next day when she was cleaning that he had bought a bottle of identical vitamin pills and placed them in the original spot. They were real vitamin pills, just very similar to the birth control pills. If you didn't look closely at the letters, you couldn't tell the difference. And on their bedside table, there were two extra boxes of condoms. They clearly weren't planning on exposing him.

That night, Gu Ruandong went to the studio as usual to pick up Yaoyao. The shoot that day didn't go very smoothly and it was almost 1 a.m. when they finished.

Lu Yaoyao was exhausted and, upon seeing Gu Ruandong, immediately leaned against him, mumbling that she was too tired to walk.

Gu Ruandong hugged her and patted her back comfortingly: "Why are you always filming at night lately"

"Well, all the night shoots were concentrated these few days."

The two of them got in the car and sat in the back seat, with the driver in front. Lu Yaoyao was both tired and sleepy, leaning on him and smelling his familiar scent, she could fall asleep instantly.

"You're smoking again" she mumbled, lifting her head to look at him. After asking, she sniffed his chest like a dog, sure enough, he was smoking.

"I had a smoke."

“Didn’t you say you were quitting” She admired him for that, his willpower was amazing. He said he would smoke and he smoked, he said he would quit and he quit, it seemed effortless.

"Occasionally, it perks me up." he replied.

"If you're tired, just rest at home. You don't have to pick me up every time. I have a driver take me home."

Lu YaoYao leaned against his face, which was a little cold. The streetlights outside the car window occasionally swept across his face, also revealing a hint of tiredness. She felt a pang of pity and persuaded him gently.

"It's okay, I was just waiting for you at home anyway."

As for what happened at home earlier, Gu Ruandong didn't say a word.

That night, she was both tired and sleepy. She went home, took a shower, and fell asleep as soon as she got into bed. Even her hair was dried by Gu Ruandong.

She's been a bit out of sorts lately because she's been filming night scenes. She basically sleeps until close to noon every day, and Gu Ruandong has already gone to work by then, so they don't get to communicate much as a couple.

After hearing Cui Ping's words, she felt a little strange. But she thought it should be Gu's mother who said something unpleasant at home, and Gu Ruandong defended her, so she didn't think too deeply about it.

It was an afternoon shoot today, and it went very smoothly. When it wrapped up, there was still plenty of time left, so she asked her driver to take her to Gu's Group to give Gu Ruandong a surprise.

Unfortunately, when she went there, the secretary's office people told her that Mr. Gu was in a meeting, and even Ms. Xiao Cai, the general secretary, was in the meeting room.

"Shall I let someone know" the secretary's assistant asked politely.

“No, I’ll wait for him.”

We waited until evening.

She first played a few rounds of pool in the lounge. After finishing one game, it was already after working hours for Gu's Group, and Gu Ruandong and his colleagues were still in a meeting. She went to wait for him in his office.

Chapter oneome up, the door opened. Gu Ruandong went in first. Lu Yaoyao remained motionless, unwilling to take the elevator with him."Don't come in" he exclaimed!Lu Yaoyao turned her head away arrogantly, as if...
