She looked at Zhou Shuang with a look of contempt . "You're so foolish . "
You're so foolish…
These words made her heart skip a beat .
Sometimes when people are talking about others, aren't they also referring to themselves?
Xuxu suppressed her emotions and pulled Zhou Shuang along as she changed the topic . "Quick, come and help me with the cooking . The soup is already done . "
She handed a bunch of vegetables to Zhou Shuang . She then said, "Help me pluck and wash the vegetables while I handle the fish . "

Zhou Shuang took over the vegetables and glared at Xuxu with knitted eyebrows . "It's so hard to get a meal from you . "
She turned on the tap, and the sounds of splashing water resounded . Suddenly, she seemed to have recalled something and tossed an annoying glance at Xuxu . "Xuxu, why didn't you tell me that you're pregnant? Do you still regard me as your friend?"
Xuxu smiled . "You didn't ask, and I'm too shy to tell you . "
Zhou Shuang glanced askew at her, unamused . "So fake . "
But she knew Xuxu too well . Given her character, she would bottle up everything in her heart and wouldn't take the initiative to pour out her personal matters to others .
Be it happy or sad—she would face it alone .
Zhou Shuang mulled over it and sighed . "Eh, since you're already carrying his child now, don't be too hard on the child's father . I can tell that he's sincere about making atonement and is being especially attentive towards you . You don't wish for the child to be born into a broken family, right?"

She could already tell from his thoughtful observation that her makeup would cause harm to Xuxu .
This fellow had indeed transformed into another person .
Xuxu knitted her eyebrows . "Do you still want to have lunch? Why have you become so talkative?"
She wanted to evade the topic, but Zhou Shuang had no intention to let her off . "Wen Xuxu, don't put on a pretense anymore . Actually, you have already fallen in love with Yan Rusheng . "
She leaned closer to Xuxu and raised her eyebrows like a busybody .
Xuxu glared back at her . "Wash it quickly . Otherwise, don't put the blame on me if you have nothing to eat . "
Zhou Shuang sighed . "Since you've fallen for him, why are you still putting up a struggle? More so, be looped into trouble with that woman—the one involved in a scandal with Yan Rusheng?" She furiously clenched her teeth . "If I were in your shoes, I would lead a happy and blissful life with him just to infuriate that slut and wreck that damn white lotus . "
The corners of Xuxu's mouth twitched . "You are evil . Get out now . I don't need your help anymore . "
She pulled Zhou Shuang's arm and shoved her out of the kitchen .
This fellow must have drunk some love potion when she was next door and got bewitched . Her grit was no longer steadfast .
Xuxu pushed Zhou Shuang out . When she was about to close the door, Zhoe Shuang blocked the door with her quick hands . "Don't be angry . You better stop cooking, too . You're pregnant with the future small boss of Flourish & Prosper, a royal baby . Don't get me into trouble . "
Xuxu menacingly glared at her as a warning . "Scram then!"
After that, she forcefully slammed the door and turned around . She couldn't help but reach out to feel her little flat tummy . A mixture of complicated emotions flashed past her eyes .
…
Over the next few days, the doorbell would ring every morning when Xuxu was brushing her teeth . Occasionally, she would open her door to take a peek, and there would be a thermos jar on the floor . At mid-day, a big bag of snacks and fruits would appear .
She disregarded them all .
By the 8th day of the month, the designated public holidays were over . All trades and professions had resumed their usual operations .
Xuxu was curled up on her sofa early in the morning . She was staring at a marriage certificate in her hands . She reached out to touch the seal located at the bottom of the photo with gentle fingers .
In the photo, there was a slight smile on the man's face . It was a genuine smile that she had seldom seen on his face .
