Chapter 425: Watching You Eat Cotton Candy, I Am Feeling Thirsty

“You don’t want to have more of it?” Zhou Dayuan stretched his thumb out to wipe the juice at the corners of her lips clean.

Jian Han pondered for a moment. Her almond shaped eyes were moist and wet, it was clear all the way to the bottom as she replied coyly, “I want to drink more, but for the good of our baby, I will drink a little less, haha.”

Zhou Dayuan looked at her gentle expression, his clear eyes had a smile in it as he said, “Wifey is so obedient.”

He lowered his gaze, and he drank the remaining sour plum juice that she held in her small hands.

He came over to hug her again. Jian Han casually nested her small head on his chest. They did not say too much. His jaw would nudge the top of her head frequently, and he nudged her lovingly.

Jian Han felt this time they spent together was so beautiful.

They passed by a truck selling cotton candy at the side of the road. Jian Han could not help herself and looked at the sweet smelling cotton candy that had a delicious fragrance.

“Do you want some?” Zhou Dayuan asked with a smile.

Jian Han looked at him gently. “Can I?”

“Sure.” Zhou Dayuan let go of her small hand. He walked to the side of the cotton candy truck. He conversed with the cotton candy merchant for a few moments, then he looked at her. “What shape do you want?”

“Huh?” Jian Han did not understand. Wasn’t cotton candy usually in the shape of a roundish ball?

Zhou Dayuan did not ask further. He lowered his gaze and took the bamboo stick from the owner’s hands. He used one hand to take the white bottle of sugar as he focused on starting to make cotton candy.

Jian Han did not know when a large group of girls gathered beside her. The girls were chatting with one another excitedly. “Wow, this man is so handsome. He actually used shaped cotton candy into a rose!”

Jian Han smiled. That was right. Those white flower buds, red flower petals, and the green leaves at least… It was a rose.

Zhou Dayuan finished making the rose. He took the rose and stood in front of Jian Han. He looked at this silly woman in front of him with a loving and gentle gaze in his eyes. “Wifey, I will give this to you.”

“Wow, this is way too romantic…” the girls beside him shrieked.

Jian Han’s heartbeat accelerated quickly. Her heart was about to jump out of her throat. His handsome, exquisite face was in front of her. She had never imagined that a man like him would also use the childish act of buying cotton candy to chase girls.

Her small face was red, and she held the cotton candy in her small hands.

“Wow…” The girls beside her all were drunk.

Zhou Dayuan cupped her small shoulders as he brought her away.

“Ay, Hubby.” Jian Han u tugged the corners of his shirt, and she softly reminded him, “Make one for Ning Qing too.”

Zhou Dayuan lifted his eyebrows up. He did not say too much, and he routed around the truck before he made another one again.

Jian Han took the cotton candy in her hands. She pouted her red and supple lips. Her tone was extremely soft and gentle as she said, “Hubby, why did you make such a normal looking one for Ning Qing?”

It was a roundish cotton candy.

Zhou Dayuan stretched his hand to pinch her small nose, kissed her small red earlobes, and softly said, “Could I actually give a special one to Ning Qing? I can only give the special one to you.”

Jian Han felt that her heart was extremely sweet. All women loved to listen to romantic words, and she was no different.

Her small white hand tore a small piece of cotton candy as she used her small pink tongue to lick it. She was satisfied like a small girl. “It’s so sweet.”

Zhou Dayuan’s gaze turned dark, and he lowered his volume to ask, “Is it sweet?”

“Yeah, Hubby, do you want to have a bite?” She placed the cotton candy near his lips.

Zhou Dayuan did not eat it. He held her soft waist a little tighter. “Open your mouth.”

“Ah?” Jian Han did not understand.

At this moment, she was taken into his embrace. Her red lips were blocked. He went directly for her sweet, fragrant lips, and he curled up to her as he sucked on her like jelly.

He moved his Adam’s apple as he swallowed.

Jian Han’s small face was crimson red. She pushed him away frantically, and it was only then she realized the passers-by all had a kind smile on their lips as they pointed in their direction. The beautiful woman who held cotton candy in her hands as a handsome man hugged her as he kissed her — this scene attracted other people’s attention.

Jian Han was both shy and angry. She turned her head as she left. “I am not going to bother with you anymore.”

Zhou Dayuan had a comfortable expression on his face. He did not get enough of it just now, but he unintentionally made her angry. He knew that she was easily shy, and he could not tease her often.

He came forward quickly and hugged her as he coaxed her gently. “Wifey, don’t be angry. I watched you eat cotton candy, and I got thirsty.”

Jian Han: “…”

Both of them stumbled into the restaurant.

…

After they entered the luxurious private room, Jian Han handed the cotton candy in her hands over to Ning Qing. “Ning Qing, this is for you.”

Ning Qing’s eyes lit up as she said, “Cotton candy! Thank you Older Sister Jian…” But when she had a clear look of the cotton candy that was in Jian Han’s hands, she noticed that it was the shape of an exquisite rose. She had a pout on her lips as she said, “Older Sister Jian, why is the cotton candy in your hands so pretty; why is mine so ordinary?”

Jian Han did not answer. Zhou Dayuan looked at Lu Shaoming. “You want it? Go and ask him for it.”

Ning Qing understood what he was trying to say. She looked at the man beside her, and she snorted at him directly.

Lu Shaoming had a frown on his face, and his gaze sped to Zhou Dayuan’s face: Brother, you are harming me!

…

The dishes all arrived. Everyone started to eat. Zhou Dayuan looked at Yue Wanqing and asked her, “Aunt, what happened last night? Why would my grandmother follow you back home?”

“That’s right.” Lu Shaoming pondered as he said, “Mum, why would Old Madam Zhou be together with you. Under normal circumstances, even if Old Madam Zhou unintentionally followed you back home, and you let her in, when a person enters an foreign environment, Old Madam Zhou should have called Old Master Zhou immediately. It was such a coincidence. Old Madam Zhou was injured in your home, and we rushed over in time today. Otherwise, if both of you had ended up in the police station, it would’ve been hard to explain everything.”

Yue Wanqing recalled as she said, “I left the Tea Pavilion Villa yesterday evening, and went to the supermarket on the way there. When I reached the door of the villa, I saw Old Madam Zhou was trailing behind me. I didn’t know her identity, so I thought that she was separated from her family. I let her in and thought of going down to the police station to report her this morning, and at that time, she was alone in the room. We heard some sounds coming from inside and rushed in. Old Madam Zhou had already fallen onto the floor, and her entire head was drenched with blood.”

Yue Wanqing recounted the story as she shuddered from head to toe. At that time, the scene was a little gory. An old grandma with a head of white hair was so injured so badly, Yue Wanqing felt that her heart had been pierced.

“Mum.” Ning Qing put her chopsticks down, and she patted her mother’s back.

Zhou Dayuan listened on and felt something was amiss. “Aunt, did anything happen last night that lead my grandma to forget to contact my grandpa?”

“No, we ate dinner last night, chatted and slept. If Old Madam Zhou wanted to make a call, she could tell me so, but she did not mention it, and at that time, I also didn’t think of it.”

“Chat? Mum, what did Old Madam Zhou chat with you about?”

Yue Wanqing thought about it carefully. “Actually we didn’t talk much. Old Madam Zhou was very benevolent. She heard that I was an orphan and wanted to see my childhood pictures. We went upstairs to take the album, and I told her about Qingqing, Shaoming, and also Little Qinwen. At that time, Old Madam Zhou was very happy about this.”

After she spoke, Yue Wanqing felt that the atmosphere around the table become serious.

She did not understand. “What’s wrong?”

“Mum,” Ning Qing said in shock. “You probably still do not know; I met Old Madam Zhou once. She has a daughter. She was separated from her daughter when she was eight years old. Old Madam Zhou had been searching for her daughter ever since.”

Yue Wanqing was shocked. “This…”

They were both orphans at the age of eight, and Old Madam Zhou still went to look for Yue Wanqing…

The people around the table were all intelligent. The little clues would make them have many guesses. Lu Shaoming expression was a little serious, and he looked at Zhou Dayuan who was seated opposite him as he asked, “What do you think?”

Zhou Dayuan moved his thin lips. Although he looked confident, there was suspicion in his warm dark eyes. “I saw that Tong Li today. After 40 years, who cannot use her appearance to decide if she is my grandfather’s daughter, but there is something. My parent’s attitude was too abnormal. Who would not hope for Dou Dou to come back home? Who else would it be other than my parents? They are afraid that Dou Dou would come back home and snatch their inheritance away. But my parents were behaving too abnormally. They actually were so protective of that Tong Li, and when Tong Li spoke, my parents were nervous.”

Lu Shaoming nodded his head, and he looked at Yue Wanqing. “If Tong Li is a fake Dou Dou, then where is the real Dou Dou? Old Madam Zhou followed Mum home. Did she realize something? If you compare Mum’s background and Dou Dou’s, could it be…”

“It cannot be.” Ning Qing shook her head. She could not believe it. “How can my mother be Old Madam Zhou’s daughter that she lost years ago? This is too…dramatic.”

At this moment, the chopsticks in Yue Wanqing’s hands fell to the floor with a bang! She looked at Zhou Dayuan and stuttered, “All of you were saying… Old Master Zhou’s daughter was called what?”

Zhou Dayuan’s eyes lit up, and he spat out two clear words: “Dou Dou.”

…

After eating lunch, Zhou Dayuan and Jian Han boarded the car. Zhou Dayuan caressed Jian Han’s head. “We were busy with grandma in the morning, and I didn’t bring you for a health check. Let’s go; let’s go to the hospital now.”

The Porsche cruised on the streets smoothly. Jian Han was taken aback as she said, “Hubby, which hospital are you bringing me to? Why don’t we do the check at the hospital that Grandma is in right now?”

Zhou Dayuan did not turn his head. His warm and gentle face did not have any emotions on it. He curled up the corners of his lips as he said, “We are going to the hospital that you are working in. You are pregnant now. It is time for you to apply for maternity leave. Let’s go do the check there, and you can apply for maternity leave at the same time.”

“Oh.” Jian Han nodded her head.

Hearing her obedient voice, Zhou Dayuan turned her head to look at her. The small woman lay her small head on the seat, and she was a little sleepy at noon. She kneaded her hand into a small fist as she rubbed her eyes. Noting that he was looking at her, she quickly put a sweet smile on her face.

Zhou Dayuan curled the corners of his lips up, and he broke out into a smile.

…

After arriving at the hospital, Doctor Chen from Obstetrics and Gynaecology was standing in the corridor as she chatted with a few nurses. Jian Han was old friends with Doctor Chen, and they had started working with one another back in Singapore.

After seeing her arrive, Doctor Chen held her hand quickly as she said. “Jian Han, why are you here only now? I haven’t seen you report for work these past few days.”

“That’s right, Doctor Jian, where did you go these past few days? We thought it was weird. Director Tang also disappeared. Both of you wouldn’t secretly go for your honeymoon right?” a nurse asked.

Jian Han froze for a moment. She wanted to deny it. At this moment Doctor Chen looked at the nurse with a displeased expression on her face. “Go go go, Xiao Li. Don’t speak nonsense if you don’t understand the situation.” As she spoke, Doctor Chen looked at Jian and said, “Say it now, why are you looking for me?”

Jian Han pursed her red lips, and she had a smile on her face. Her small, gentle face was a little shy as she said, “I am here to do a thorough check. I…am pregnant now.”
