The Reluctant Bride

"Guess." Shen Cheng smiled. Qiao Xinwan opened the box and was startled. In the box is a circle of diamonds of different sizes. The smallest one is one carat and the big one has five carats.

There are dozens of them, arranged in a circle in a small box, shining brightly.

"This is too expensive." Qiao Xinwan put the lid on the box and wanted to return it to Shen Cheng. He pushed back again.

"Belle is still young and can't wear it. So I bought this cut. When Belle grows up, I can order it myself."

"Shen Cheng." Qiao Xinwan was a little unacceptable: "It's just a full moon. It's really too expensive."

"I didn't give it to you, I gave it to Belle." Shen Cheng looked at Belle who was holding Qiao Xinwan's hands: "Bell, do you say that it is precious or not? If it is not precious, don't talk. It's precious, just say it."

"Shen Cheng." What would the child say when he was so young? Qiao Xinwan was really speechless, Belle blinked, looked at Shen Cheng, and suddenly grinned.

Give the child authorship. Shen Cheng smiled and clapped his hands: "Look, Belle likes this. So, don't refuse."

Qiao Xinwan felt helpless and put the gift aside. Shen Cheng didn't mind, and took out a small box from his pocket and handed it to Qiao Xinwan.

"Xinwan, that one is for the baby. I also prepared a gift for you."

"Me?" Qiao Xinwan was stunned for a moment. She looked at the box and guessed what it was. She is no stranger to this box: "Shen Cheng?"

"Please marry me." Shen Cheng opened the box, and the diamond inside was shining with moving light. Shen Cheng has a sincere expression: "I will love you for a lifetime and give Belle a complete home. I hope I can live with you. I will give you the happiness of a lifetime. Please trust me."

"Shen Cheng." Shen Cheng has said this many times, and Qiao Xinwan never doubted the authenticity of this statement. But she knew it very well. The person I love is not Shen Cheng. She is grateful, moved, but not love.

"It's not fair to you." It's really unfair. If it was before, she could be willful or selfish. But now, she can't do it.

"I don't want to be fair." Shen Cheng looked at Qiao Xinwan, his eyes focused: "The apartment I live in was refurbished last week. There is a special baby room. I will let people arrange everything inside. Yes. You just need to take Belle to marry me. You leave the rest to me. Is this okay?"

Qiao Xinwan's eyes were hot, and a lot of emotions filled her heart. She was speechless, wanted to refuse, and couldn't bear it. Don't refuse, and don't want to.

The expression was full of entanglement, and Shen Cheng did not force her to sit by the bed waiting for her answer.

Just now. She heard footsteps, wiped her eyes, and glanced outside the door. It turned out that it was Hu Yimin, Song Chenyun, and Du Libin, all with gifts.

Mother Qiao followed them, accepted the gift, and thanked everyone.

Qiao Xinwan looked at Shen Cheng, he had put away the box, but the loss on his face was clearly visible. I felt guilty. She is really sorry for Shen Cheng.

A few teased and laughed at the little princess. At this time, the voice of the servant sounded downstairs and another guest came.

When Mother Qiao came downstairs, all three of Gu's family came. Gu Xuewen and his wife and Gu Xuemei.

Xuemei is still sitting in the wheelchair, because it is summer, a white chiffon dress, sitting there, adds a bit of tenderness to her. Zuo Panqing stood beside her, her belly seemed a little bigger than last time.

"Auntie." Gu Xuewen nodded to Qiao's mother and sent a congratulatory gift: "A small gift. It's not a respect."

"You are polite." Mother Qiao's emotions towards the Gu family are still a bit complicated.

"Sit down. I asked my aunt to carry the baby down."

Not waiting for her to speak. All Shen Cheng came down. Seeing Gu Xuewen coming, Song Chenyun quickly stepped forward. uehw.

"Brother Wen."

"Yeah." Gu Xuewen nodded. He thought he was the first to arrive: "I didn't expect you to be earlier than me."

"That's it." Song Chenyun smiled, and pointed to Shen Cheng behind: "How big is this guy? The South African rough diamond that my company just bought. Once it's cut, I picked it all out. Can you say I can forget it? "

Gu Xuewen looked at Shen Cheng: "You are really interested."

No one doubts the authenticity of Shen Cheng's intentions towards Qiao Xinwan, but everyone knows that Qiao Xinwan's child is Gu Xuewu.

"You're polite." Shen Cheng was not self-effacing to Gu Xuewen. He glanced upstairs: "Be good to my future wife, I don't think I'm the first. Right?"

"Indeed." Gu Xuewen turned around and glanced at Zuo Panqing: "Is it tired?"

"Not tired." If it weren't for Gu Xuewen's pull, Zuo Panqing had rushed upstairs to see the baby. After waiting for a long time, finally when Qiao Xinwan came downstairs, the aunt followed her, holding Belle in her arms.

Zuo Panqing was the first to greet him and said to Qiao Xinwan: "Xinwan, congratulations to the baby on the full moon, and wish the baby good health. Happy growth."

"Thank you." Qiao Xinwan liked Panqing and was very happy to see her here. However: "At this time, shouldn't you stop running around?"

"It's okay." Zuo Panqing waved her hand: "The doctor said I want to exercise more."

Qiao Xinwan nodded and pointed to the sofa: "Sit down, don't stand still, it looks weirdly tired."

She is also a pregnant woman, and when her belly is big, she feels very uncomfortable.

"Thank you." Zuo Panqing nodded and gave the gift she prepared to Qiao Xinwan: "I prepared this with a little heart. Don't dislike it."

"You are too polite." Qiao Xinwan opened the box and glanced at a smiling Maitreya Buddha. The color is transparent and the color is lustrous. Carving skills are also good. It is a good piece of sapphire.

"Too expensive, isn't it?" Qiao Xinwan was not polite, she really felt a little expensive. After all, Belle is still young.

"It's not expensive." Zuo Panqing waved her hand. She worked in a jewelry company. If she gave too many things, she couldn't get her hands. "Girl, use a jade to raise it. How great."

"Thank you." Qiao Xinwan knew that she would become good friends with Zuo Panqing in the future, and took her hand: "Let's go. Let's sit down."

"Xin Wan." Gu Xuemei spoke behind the crowd and handed her gift: "Congratulations."

"Thank you."

Take the gifts from everyone and ask Mother Qiao to collect them. Qiao Xinwan sat down to chat with everyone, and the servant brought up refreshments to entertain the guests. A few laughed and laughed, the atmosphere was so lively. Only Qiao Xinwan.

Listening to everyone's conversation, they looked out of the villa from time to time. And Shen Cheng, who was sitting next to her, knew her thoughts at a glance.

Belle has a full moon today. Everyone came, but Gu Xuewu, the father of the child, did not. He should be happy, Gu Xuewu should let go, right?

If the full moon does not come, it shows that Belle has really been given up, and no more fights. But I felt that Gu Xuewu was ruthless. Really ruthless.

But Qiao Xinwan didn't think too much. Shen Cheng's parents and Gu Xuewu's parents were here at this time, even Gu Zhiqiang and Chen Jingru were also here.

The six elders stopped in the living room. Most of the young man's laughter disappeared immediately.

After looking at each other, one after another got up and gave up their seats to the elders. After a lot of noise, several elders gave gifts, Qiao Jie went downstairs at this time, hooked Song Chenyun's arm and took them to another living room, leaving the hall for several elders.

Qiao Xinwan wanted to leave, but when she saw Wang Xiu'e hugged the child, she felt a little alert. Sitting in the living room with a few elders, did not leave.

But when Wang Xiu'e took the child back to her, she was relieved. I feel overwhelmed. After all, this is the Qiao family, not the Gu family.

I took the children to talk to Panqing and asked Mother Qiao to entertain the elders.

………………

Gu Xuewu got off the plane. Turn on the phone, there are more than a dozen missed calls on it. Fuck your eyebrows.

Pressing one of the numbers, listening to the voice on the other side of the phone, a stunned brow flashed: "What did you say?"

Repeated over the phone. Gu Xuewu's face was a bit solemn.

Speed ​​up and walk outside. Belle is full moon today? Isn't it tomorrow? He always thought it was tomorrow. Listening to what Gu Xuewen said, it is calculated according to the lunar calendar, not the solar calendar.

Gu Xuewu stretched out his hand to stop a taxi and rushed to Qiao's house as quickly as possible.

Although Gu Xuewu moved fast, it was already afternoon when he arrived at Qiao's house. The guests who came have left early. In the living room, Qiao's mother is still making people clean up. Seeing him coming, his face was a little complicated. But he didn't stop him from going upstairs, but he spoke softly when he went upstairs.

"Xuewu, your parents have been here today."

Gu Xuewu was stunned for a moment, and stopped when he wanted to go upstairs. He turned and looked at Mother Qiao, not understanding what she meant.

"I don't understand why you and Xinwan divorced in the first place. Xinwan said she brought it up. But you now have children. Can you consider getting back together?"

Except for Gu Tianchu who didn't come today, the Gu family arrived. It is said that such a big battle came to see Xinwan, and no one believes it. It is better to say that it came to see Belle.

If it were before, Qiao’s mother would not have said this, but after today, it’s not like that. Shen Cheng’s parents are here, and when they are leaving, the verbal meaning is that although the Shen family likes to be hearty, if Without children, Shen Cheng and Xinwan are right in line.

But now it’s different with children.

In the latter words, Mother Shen doesn't need to pick Doming anymore, Mother Qiao already understands. I knew it was inappropriate, but Shen Cheng was stubborn and Qiao Xin was stubborn. She pulled it all wrong. After Qiao's family left, he thought for a long time. Finally, I finally decided to ask Gu Xuewu what Gu Xuewu meant.

Gu Xuewu was stunned for a moment, and watched Qiao's mother look dazed, reuniting with Qiao Xinwan? how is this possible?

Mother Qiao sighed: "Xuewu, you can be regarded as the child I grew up watching. Xinwan has liked you since I was a child. I hope you can understand. Although she is a little bit spoiled, her feelings for you are true. "

Gu Xuewu was silent, what he wanted to say finally just nodded slightly, turned around, and went upstairs.

Mother Qiao looked at his back and frowned. The most inevitable thing in this world is feelings. The twisted melon is not sweet, everyone knows the truth, but when the melon is my daughter's fancy, I hope that it will be sweetened even if it is not sweet.

With such painstaking efforts, how many children understand?

………………

When Gu Xuewu went upstairs, Belle was already asleep. After playing for most of the day, she was tired early and slept soundly in the baby bed. The little blushed, pouting. It looks very cute.

Wearing a new set of pink clothes, Gu Xuewu could see the golden bracelet on her hand and the golden lock piece on her belly. He raised his eyebrows. Three days ago, the minister arranged for him to chair an executive meeting.

The meeting lasted for three days. He thought he would pick a gift when he came back, but he didn't want to count the wrong day.

Is his father dereliction of duty?

Feeling a little upset, looking at her daughter’s face, and wanting to reach out and touch it, Aunt Zhou stared at him with a thief-proof expression: "Sir, it’s not easy for me to find a job with such a high salary. Please be kind, don’t give Am I messing up?"

Gu Xuewu ignored her words, and gently stroked her daughter's cheek with her hand. In her sleep, she slightly curled her eyebrows and turned away uncomfortably.

The daughter resisted herself when she slept. An unexplainable emotion flashed in Gu Xuewu's heart. Some were disappointed, some were unwilling, and there were other emotions that he couldn't distinguish himself.

Standing up, he turned and left the room. When he left, Aunt Zhou breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the man doesn't take Belle away, her work can go on.

Gu Xuewu entered Qiao Xinwan's room. The door is not locked, so the aunt can take the child in and feed her at any time. She was also tired and was taking a lunch break. Lie on the bed sideways.

Closed eyes, it seems to be extremely tired, even if someone comes in. Gu Xuewu sat down by the bed and turned his head slightly to look at Qiao Xinwan's face.

I have known each other for decades, from when I was a child to now, but he has never seriously seen what Qiao Xinwan looks like once. The face in the impression is very blurred.

I just remember that a face is very gorgeous, always wearing delicate makeup. However, he didn't even think about taking Qiao Xinwan's appearance seriously.

But looking at her now, she fell asleep and her face was refreshed. He discovered for the first time that Qiao Xinwan's skin was very fair, and she looked beautiful without makeup. Eyebrow shape is also good.

Put one hand on your cheek. Seems to be dreaming, and the eyebrows are twisted again.

Lips opened slightly, a little tempting to kiss. I was on this bed some time ago in my mind, the brief four lips facing each other. She seems to have soft lips?

His thoughts stopped, Gu Xuewu didn't understand what was wrong with him.

Seeing her curled eyebrows, her hand somehow leaned forward, trying to smooth it, but stopped when she was about to touch her cheek.

The hand stayed there, but Qiao Xinwan woke up at this moment, opened his eyes, and saw Gu Xuewu's hand in front of him. ,

"Drink." She was startled, her body instinctively retreated back. But lying on the bed, where can I retreat? 0

"You..." Why are you here?

I didn't ask the following words. Gu Xuewu retracted his hand and sat upright again. Seeing the scared look on Qiao Xinwan's face, he felt a little happy.

Constricting his eyes, suppressing those unnecessary emotions, watching Qiao Xinwan speak softly: "Let's get back together."
