When Liang Feifan approached the consultation room, Bai Lu had already finished her checkup. The attending doctor happened to be reminding her of some things to pay attention to. It was basically the same as before, but she had been pregnant for three months now, so everything was stable.
"… There may be pregnancy reactions, but it varies from person to person, so you don't have to be too nervous. Just relax a little."
When Liang Feifan entered, he happened to hear this sentence. As soon as the doctor saw him enter, he quickly stood up and said with a smile, "Young Master Liang, everything is fine."
Liang Feifan nodded and said politely, "Thank you." The doctor smiled and gave a few more instructions, most of which were things that pregnant women should pay attention to. Bai Lu was a little absent-minded, but Liang Feifan listened very carefully.
"What's wrong? You've been a little absent-minded since the beginning. " As soon as the two of them got into the car, Liang Feifan keenly sensed that the woman beside him was a little off. She had been very quiet from the beginning.
"Nothing."
Bai Lu realized that she had exposed too much of her emotions. Liang Feifan was a very observant person, so she quickly calmed her chaotic thoughts. When she slowly raised her head, there was an impeccable smile on her face. "… I'm just a little tired. Now that I'm pregnant, I obviously feel like I can eat and sleep."
Liang Feifan reached out and stroked her black hair. He didn't suspect anything. "Isn't it good to be able to eat and sleep? You don't have to go to the company for a while. Rest well at home. " He paused and reached out to hold the back of her neck. His hot breath was against her lips, and there was a kind of helplessness in his voice that he couldn't accept. "Bai Lu, I know it's hard for you to marry me like this. Don't worry, I'll make up for it with a grand wedding in the future. I'll let the whole world know that you're my wife, Liang Feifan. Beat him up. "
"… Extraordinary." Bai Lu turned around and hugged Liang Feifan. His voice was a little hoarse, but he said word by word, "With you by my side, I'm enough. Other things aren't the most important to me."
"But I want to give you the best of everything." Liang Feifan reached out and rubbed her cheek, whispering, "Give me a little more time."
Bai Lu nodded.
Whether it was a little time, a period of time, or a long time, she would give it all …
"But today, we will go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get our marriage certificate." Liang Feifan released her, fastened her seatbelt, and started the engine. "Now go back to your house to get your household register."
Bai Lu had indeed been so immersed in happiness that she had forgotten about getting their marriage certificate. Now that Liang Feifan mentioned it, she realized that there was still one last step between them.
Just as the car drove out of the hospital, Liang Feifan's phone in his pocket rang again. Bai Lu saw him take it out and glanced at it, then picked up the call in front of her.
It should be Guan Chao calling. She couldn't hear what Guan Chao said on the other end of the phone, but she naturally heard what Liang Feifan said clearly.
"… Didn't you say that the meeting would be postponed until tomorrow? I have something to do now … If you have any questions, wait until I go to the office tomorrow. "
Bai Lu watched him hang up the phone and throw it directly on the dashboard. Although his handsome face looked calm, there was a hint of hidden hostility in his handsome features. Bai Lu moved her fingers, then reached out and gently pressed the back of his hand.
When Liang Feifan turned around, the hostility between his eyebrows had disappeared. His voice was calm. "What's wrong?"
"Feifan, you go to the office first. I'll go get the household register on my own."
"It's okay." Liang Feifan comforted her. "It's just a small matter. I'll get Guan Chao to deal with it. I'll be worried if you go back alone."
Bai Lu insisted. "Then get your driver to send me back to get it. I know something happened at the company. Don't let these small matters affect the bigger picture. I'll be worried too. Actually, when you sent me here today, you kept calling me. I knew something must have happened. Don't make me worry, okay? "
Her voice was soft, especially the last sentence. It sounded like she was negotiating, but Liang Feifan knew her well.
If he insisted on going with her to get the household register now, this little woman would definitely be unhappy along the way. Forget it.
Those old fogies in the Liang Clan were now taking advantage of the situation against Family Liang. They were all ready to make a move. Guan Chao had just called to tell him about this.
He glanced at Bai Lu. After a moment, he said in a deep voice, "Okay, I'll get the driver to come over. You have to be careful. Call me when you arrive, okay?"
Bai Lu nodded.
Liang Feifan saw the unconcealable worry on her face. He resisted the urge to sigh and gently rubbed the back of her hand with his thumb. "Don't worry. These things are not for you to worry about. You just have to take care of yourself, okay?"
Bai Lu nodded again and remained silent.
The driver arrived soon. Liang Feifan watched as Bai Lu got into the car. He then reached out to smoke a cigarette from the cigarette box and lit it between his thin lips. He threw the lighter on the dashboard and narrowed his eyes as he exhaled a puff of smoke.
After a short while, the cigarette between his fingers had burned out. Liang Feifan pinched out the cigarette butt, rolled up the car window, and drove to the Liang Clan.
...
By the time Bai Lu reached home, it was already afternoon. Chin Jin-hee was not at home.
She thought that her mother should be in the hospital, so she tried to call her. However, her phone was turned off. Bai Lu hurried to the hospital to look for Chin Jin-hee. In the end, she found out that Chin Jin-hee had applied for leave.
Applied for leave?
Bai Lu frowned. Her mother rarely applied for leave, and today was not a special day. She thought about it and felt that something was wrong. She tried to call her mother again, but the line was still not working. Bai Lu returned home with a lot on her mind. She pondered for a moment and decided to go to her mother's room to get her household register. Then she prepared to return to A City first.
When she walked to the door, she thought about her father in the mountains. She thought about how she had not visited him in a long time. Seeing that it was still early, she decided to make a trip down.
Actually, Bai Lu did not have much of an impression of her "father."
She only remembered that when she was a child, he liked to let her lie on his back. He liked to carry her everywhere. He liked to call her "Nannan." He also liked to sing nursery rhymes to her. She was too young at that time, so all she could remember were the best times. However, it had been so long that her memories were a little blurry now.
Bai Lu walked for about ten minutes before she arrived at Bai Yi's tombstone. To her surprise, there was a bouquet of blue roses in front of the tombstone.
She did not remember that her mother liked such pretty flowers. In the past, when she came to pay respects to her father with her mother, she never bought such flowers.
Who sent these flowers? Her father had been buried here for so many years. It was impossible for anyone to have visited him.
When Bai Yi passed away, Bai Lu was only five years old. She was so young that she did not even know what death was. At that time, she did not know that when Bai Yi was buried, it was very quiet. Chin Jin-hee did not mention a word about it, so Bai Lu did not know. When she grew up later, she gradually understood that only her mother and daughter often came to her parents' tombstone.
Her mother told her that her father was the only son in the family. Her parents had also passed away early, so they did not have any other relatives.
...
Bai Lu pulled up her pants and squatted down carefully. She took a closer look at the bouquet of flowers. The petals were still very bright. It looked like they had just been placed there. Also, the tombstone was very clean. Bai Lu's slender brows furrowed even tighter. Shouldn't the tombstone be overgrown with weeds at this time of the year? During this period of time, she had not heard her mother mention that someone had come to clean this place...
She was sure that someone had been here, but that person was definitely not Chin Jin-hee.
Bai Lu did not stay for long. Seeing that it was getting late, she could not think of anything if she just squatted here. She decided to go back to A City first.
The road down the mountain was more difficult to walk. Bai Lu was even more careful because she was pregnant. However, halfway down, she felt dizzy. Previously, the doctor had told her that she might have mild anemia after three months. She was afraid that she would accidentally faint, so she had to stop. Just at this moment, she heard a woman's voice not far away. It was vaguely familiar. This voice... seemed like...
Bai Lu's heart skipped a beat. The dizziness was replaced by shock. She frowned and turned around. A woman was standing behind a tree not far behind her.
Even though the leaves covered most of her body, Bai Lu could still see her face clearly.
She leaned forward slightly with a tissue in one hand. She seemed to be wiping the tears on her face. In the other hand, she was holding a cell phone. She did not know what the person on the other end of the phone said, but she looked very reluctant. After a while, she said in a hoarse voice, "... I have found him. No matter what method you use, I must know clearly what happened back then."
After saying this, the woman hung up immediately. Bai Lu saw that she was about to turn around. Her heart tightened and she instinctively moved to avoid her. However, because she moved too quickly and her whole body was leaning, the mountain road was uneven. She paused and realized that something was wrong.
The scream came from her throat. Bai Lu bit her lip hard and did not dare to make a sound. However, her body tilted due to inertia. In the next second, she felt a sharp pain in her ankle. Cold sweat broke out on her forehead. Fortunately, the moment she was about to fall, she quickly grabbed a nearby branch. Although she sprained her ankle, she did not fall.
