Chapter 408 Wedding Date
She didn’t want to go with him to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get the certificate, so she excused herself again: “Let me think about it.”
"What else is there to think about?" Pei Ziheng's voice was deep. "Xiao Ling, I just went to the Civil Affairs Bureau. It won't do anything to you. Are you unwilling? Before the child is born, we must obtain a certificate. I will not allow him to become an illegitimate child. It won’t take even one day to give birth.”
Xiao Ling doesn’t understand how fierce the fight is within the Pei family.
In the future, when he is old and waning, if the issue of successor is not properly handled, a new round of power struggle will be enough to overturn the entire business structure. If the child in her belly is a boy, he will be the first heir in the family. There must be no flaws in this child's identity, no basis for criticism, not even the title of "illegitimate child" for a day and a half.
Besides, he also wanted to marry her as soon as possible.
The night was long and the dream was heavy. She looked at Li Lei with great sadness under the tree at the company headquarters yesterday morning. The heartbroken look in her eyes made Pei Ziheng panic.
It’s early summer in June, and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant outside the window.
Xia Ling knew she couldn't defeat him, so she looked out the window and remained silent for a long time. "Let's set it on Chinese Valentine's Day," she said softly. "As long as the certificate is obtained before the child is born, it will be an auspicious day." She remembered that this year's Chinese Valentine's Day fell at the end of August, so there were still nearly three months left. Since she can't resist him, then at least let her choose a longer time. Maybe then, she will give up and accept her fate.
Pei Ziheng didn't know what she had in mind, so he just assumed she agreed.
He was ecstatic, but on the surface he only showed a gentle smile and hugged her tightly: "Okay, it's up to you. Chinese Valentine's Day is a good day. I wish I could be a winged bird in the sky and join branches on the ground."
A bird with wings?
She gave a wry smile. The person who could compare with her was far away.
After that day, Pei Ziheng treated her twice as well as usual, hiring a special pregnancy consultant, a nutritionist, and two nannies. Xia Ling felt dizzy with so many people hanging around in front of her, so she lost her temper, so Pei Ziheng bought another house near the villa where they lived, specifically to accommodate these idle people.
The family is as usual, the only servants who live there are the driver and Zhou’s mother.
When Zhou's mother heard the news about her pregnancy, she beamed: "Miss Ye, your body is not as valuable as before. You have to be more careful when you go in and out. You must keep up with your nutrition. Just tell me what you like to eat and I will make it for you." "She imparted a lot of pregnancy knowledge to Xia Ling in a nonchalant manner.
Pregnancy is a woman's business. No matter how much Pei Ziheng controls the situation outside, he can't really help much when it comes to details. Thanks to Mother Zhou’s advice, she even taught me what position to use when sleeping. Xia Ling listened carefully and thought to herself, no wonder people say that having an elder in the family is like having a treasure. With Zhou's mother here, she felt much more at ease.
Zhou’s mother encouraged her to go out for a walk frequently and told her to work in moderation.
Xia Ling feels that her current job is very moderate, almost too moderate. She spends every day in Feng Kun's office basking in the sun, eating snacks and dazing, and occasionally hums a few pieces of music, just as a reserve for future creation.
She didn't know where her current leisurely life came from. Ever since Feng Kun let Li Lei go to the company to meet her last time, Pei Ziheng had deducted a whole year's salary from him and used the withheld money to buy her a special Mountain spring water, soft cushions, and fruit snacks that are different every day are provided.
That means she still regards Feng Kun as a friend, otherwise, Pei Ziheng would directly kick out the rip-off producer and ruin his reputation.
Feng Kun is well aware of such consequences. But he still didn't regret letting Li Lei in. At least, her amulet was back - that small sycamore wood amulet should have been given by Li Lei. She got something as a treasure every day, but she was afraid that Pei Ziheng would see it and not dare to wear it. Around my neck, I put it in my handbag. I take it out every day in the office and stare at it for a long time.
If they can't be together, it's okay to leave them in your thoughts.
At least the child will have something from his biological father around him in the future.
Feng Kun felt sorry for her and the child. The Pei family pursues a Spartan education, which is very cruel and cold, which is why they educate men like Pei Ziheng, who are extremely powerful but also cruel and violent. It would be terrible if Xiao Ling gave birth to a son and grew up like that.
However, he couldn't say anything to Xia Ling.
The matter has come to this, and it is useless to say more. He can only forgive her, take good care of her, and hope that she and the baby are safe. "It would be nice if it was a girl." Feng Kun chatted with her, "Girls are beautiful."
The afternoon sun shone on Xia Ling lazily.
She was playing with the small piece of sycamore wood amulet. When she heard the words, she said softly: "Girls are good." She rubbed her belly with her plain hand and smiled, "Girls are like mothers."
Feng Kun felt slightly bitter.
This innocent and simple girl grew up in an instant for the sake of the baby in her belly. She no longer cares about being beautiful or not, but is worried about what if the child is born like her father.
“They say boys are more like their mothers.” He smiled kindly and comforted her.
Xia Ling felt his kindness, smiled again, lowered her head, put the amulet gently against her belly, and said to herself: "Baby, daddy is here too, you must be safe."
Feng Kun turned away to prevent her from seeing the sadness in his eyes.
In the evening, Pei Ziheng came to take her home as usual. Nowadays, the entire emperor is very used to him accompanying her in the long corridor. The big boss, who has always been unsmiling, with a gentle look, carefully protects the petite girl in his arms like a rare treasure. .
“Are we going to have a boss lady?”
On this day, girl A at the front desk looked at them secretly and asked girl B at the front desk.
Girl B at the front desk looked at the pair of beauties walking by slowly for a long time, holding her cheeks with her hands: "Wow, have you noticed that our big boss really matches Ye Xingling very well. They are so talented and beautiful, so eye-catching."
"What do you mean, a talented man and a beautiful woman?" It was almost time to get off work, and the girls at the front desk were not busy. Girl C also joined the conversation, "Let me see, let me see...are you talking about the boss and Ye Xingling? Oh, how can you call me a talented woman and a beautiful woman?" ? He is clearly rich and handsome! Our hero Pei has everything, including money, looks, and family background... What is Ye Xingling? How about flying up a branch and marrying into a rich family? Wake up and take a look at what happened to Sister Guan Ju and Liu Mengmeng in the early years."
She was talking about actresses who were once very popular. Like Ye Xingling, she was from a grassroots background, with no power or background. Later she fell in love with a child of aristocratic families and was abandoned miserably.
