Chapter 130: Morning Sickness and Unable to Eat
Chapter 130: Morning Sickness and Unable to Eat
"Will the result be what I want?"
"of course."
With Mr. Mu's firm promise, Han Jingjing finally felt relieved.
It seems that she doesn't need to find ways to show off in front of Mu Chaoran and increase her presence. She just needs to wait happily to become Mr. Mu's fiancée.
Mr. Mu will protect her!
"Okay, thank you, Grandpa Mu." Han Jingjing responded sweetly, "I will listen to you and stay at home peacefully, not causing any trouble, and wait to be your granddaughter-in-law!"
"Ah."
After hanging up the phone, Mr. Mu scolded, "Chao Ran is too outrageous!"
When Han Jingjing went to see him, he simply refused to let her in.
On the surface, Mu Chaoran did not accept Han Jingjing, but secretly, Mu Chaoran was competing with Old Man Mu.
Grandfather and grandson, let’s see who will win in the end.
Old Master Mu has already made up his mind. When Mu Chaoran takes office, if Mu Chaoran does not announce the marriage news, he will announce it himself.
No need for Mu Chaoran’s personal approval or consent!
The housekeeper brought tea and said, "Calm down, old man. Your blood pressure has not come down yet. Your health is important."
"Whenever I think of Chao Ran, I get angry and my blood pressure goes up. How can I lower it?"
Mr. Mu had a stern face. After taking two sips of tea, he suddenly thought of something: "How is Lin Xige doing? Is she still well?"
"She's quite well behaved, but she didn't touch yesterday's dinner or today's breakfast."
"Why, are you trying to use the hunger strike trick on me?"
The butler replied: "Not sure."
"Hmph!" Mr. Mu put down his teacup, "I'll go take a look."
Lin Xige sat on the sofa in front of the window, covering her chest, hunched over, and was about to vomit while holding onto a trash can.
But she hadn't eaten anything, so she couldn't vomit anything out and just kept dry heaving.
Nausea, vomiting, and extremely uncomfortable.
Just as she was vomiting all over the place, the door lock rang.
Here comes someone.
Lin Xige immediately sat up, wiped the corners of her mouth roughly, and tried her best to pretend that nothing had happened.
She picked up the water and took a big sip to suppress the churning in her stomach.
The morning sickness was so severe that she never thought she would vomit like this one day.
It was just dry heaving without any reason or warning. If he smelled any fishy or unacceptable smell, he would vomit yellow bile.
So, she couldn't eat any of the food that was served to her.
The door was pushed open from the outside, and Mr. Mu's walking stick hit the ground again and again, the sound coming from far away.
Soon, Mr. Mu stood in front of Lin Xige.
"I heard you were on a hunger strike?"
Lin Xige didn't know how to answer, so she opened her mouth, hesitant.
She can't say that she has morning sickness and can't eat!
"Lin Xige, if you stay here, I will definitely provide you with good food and drink." Grandpa Mu said, "But if you want to use your body to fight me, then I can only say that you are too stupid. If you die, it will be a great thing for me and the Mu family, and I don't even have to do anything!"
"I..." After hesitating for a long time, Lin Xige finally came up with an excuse, "I just don't like those dishes."
"Then what do you want to eat?"
"Spicy, with a stronger taste," Lin Xige replied, "Fruit should also be sour. If it's too sweet, it's a bit greasy."
Mr. Mu pointed at her and said, "You...are you still picky about food?"
"Yes," Lin Xige answered seriously, "It's all because of Mu Chaoran. When he's around, I don't have to pick out the seeds when I eat watermelon, and I don't have to peel the grapes when I eat them. He'll prepare them for me, and I just have to open my mouth. Who told him to be so good to me? I can't stand this kind of life where I have to do things by myself. Old man, if you think I'm too much trouble, then go and scold your grandson."
"I don't believe it." Old Master Mu sneered, "You want to deceive me with such clumsy words."
"Really, he really would take care of me like this. If you don't believe me, I have photos and videos on my phone as evidence."
Mr. Mu almost couldn't breathe.
Mu Chaoran dotes on Lin Xige so much! ?
After Lin Xige finished speaking, she couldn't help but sigh. Apart from concealing his identity, Mu Chaoran was actually impeccable to her in their daily interactions.
I don’t know if it’s because of her pregnancy, but she always wants to eat something sour and spicy.
People say "sour boys, spicy girls", she loves to eat this, could it be...
Are you pregnant with twins?
Thinking of this, Lin Xige's heart skipped a beat.
When she came to her senses, her stomach started to feel uncomfortable again and she wanted to vomit.
She pinched her palms hard, trying to suppress the feeling.
but……
I still underestimated the power of morning sickness.
Lin Xige covered her mouth and turned around, retching a few times, before leaning limply on the edge of the sofa.
When Mr. Mu saw her like this, his brows furrowed more and more tightly.
"What's wrong with you?" he asked. "The food in my Mu family is so bad? Are you wronged? You come from a small county town. How can your food and clothing be comparable to the Mu family's standard?"
"not me……"
Lin Xige wanted to cover it up, but she was too exhausted to vomit.
Morning sickness is especially severe in the morning.
"Alright, alright." Old Master Mu said disdainfully, "Butler!"
"Yes, old man, your orders."
"Provide her with food as she requested. Also, get a doctor to see what's the matter with her."
what?
doctor!?
“No need!” Lin Xige refused immediately. “I… I’m just picky, plus, plus… um… I, I’m locked up here and can’t get my freedom, I’m under a lot of mental pressure, I’m anxious, and… that’s it… I, I have claustrophobia, I’ll dry heave when I’m nervous!”
I don’t know if anyone will believe it, but this is the only lie she can tell.
If Mr. Mu knew that she was pregnant, she would probably lose the child.
What's more, Lin Xige's current plan is to give birth to the child and raise him/herself, which has nothing to do with the Mu family.
She didn't know what the future would be like, nor did she know how Mu Chaoran would treat her.
People, no matter at any time, the only one you can rely on is yourself.
Especially women.
The child is Lin Xige's only support.
Even if her marriage with Mu Chaoran broke down, even if she no longer believed in love, at least she would have a child to accompany her for the long years to come.
The elderly have a place to rely on.
Therefore, the news of the pregnancy must be kept secret at all costs for now!
Mr. Mu stared at Lin Xige: "Really?"
"Yes, yes," Lin Xige nodded repeatedly, "Why else would I be so hard on my own body? It's stupid to go on a hunger strike. Why treat myself so badly? Besides, I can't stay here forever. One day you'll let me out."
Mr. Mu didn't know whether what she said was true or not.
