Seeing the whole family in the living room, I felt very shy. I whispered to Duanmu Que, "Hurry up and put me down. Everyone is watching."
"I'm not going to put you down." He rolled his eyes at me, then looked up at everyone. "Mom, Dad, thank you for your hard work. I have to take Xiao Li back to her room first. I'll come down later."
Then, Duanmu Que carried me upstairs. When we reached the top of the stairs, we saw Yu Xin standing there, looking at us with a serious expression. It felt like her eyes were about to spit fire. Duanmu Que walked in front of Yu Xin and suddenly stopped. He said to her, "Xinxin, you're just in time. Come with me." Then, he carried me into our room. I turned around and saw that Yu Xin's face was red.
After we entered the room, Duanmu Que put me on the bed and gently covered me with a blanket. He then poured me a glass of water. After I drank it, he took the glass away. Yu Xin stood at the door, watching Duanmu Que's busy figure. Her eyes were filled with tenderness, but when she saw me, her expression became especially cold. Duanmu Que pointed at the stool by the dressing table, indicating for her to sit. Yu Xin thought for a moment, then walked in and sat on the chair, looking at him.
Duanmu Que pulled out two gift boxes from the bottom of the wardrobe. One was pink, and the other was white. Duanmu Que handed the white box to Yu Xin. Then, he handed the pink box to me and carefully opened it. Inside the box was a pink dress. Duanmu Que took out the dress. It was a pink spaghetti strap evening gown. The style and color were all my favorite. I gently touched the dress. It was so beautiful that I didn't even want to wear it.
Duanmu Que looked at my infatuated face and rubbed my head. "What do you think? Do you like it?"
I nodded vigorously. "It's beautiful. The style and color are all my favorites." I touched the jewels on the dress. "This dress must have been very expensive."
"The price is not the point. The point is that this dress is custom-made and is one of a kind in the world." Duanmu Que said proudly. "The most important thing is that the designer of this dress is an internationally renowned designer. His work can be auctioned for more than 500,000 yuan."
"Gosh, that's hard to book." I looked up at him.
"That's for sure. But your handsome husband happened to be his university classmate and best friend. So, he made my appointment in advance and created it quickly. What do you think? Isn't your husband awesome? How are you going to reward me? "Duanmu Que brought his face close to mine.
I kissed him lightly on the lips. "Awesome. Thank you for giving me such a beautiful dress."
"Then you have to wear it tonight. I want you to be the most beautiful person in the room." Duanmu Que gently rubbed my head.
At this time, Yu Xin lowered her head and walked towards the door. Duanmu Que turned around and saw her. "Yu Xin, where are you going?" Duanmu Que shouted.
Yu Xin stopped in her tracks but didn't turn around. "I'm going back," she said with her head lowered.
Duanmu Que glanced at her gift box but didn't open it. He stood up and said, "Open it first and see if it fits."
"No need. I'll go back and see it myself." She turned to leave.
Duanmu Que walked to her side and grabbed Yu Xin's arm. "You should open it and see. If it doesn't fit, it's not too late to change it now."
Yu Xin didn't shake off Duanmu Que's arm. Duanmu Que took the gift box from Yu Xin's hand and placed it on the dressing table. He slowly opened it. Inside was a black dress. I glanced at the label. It was from Gucci. The style was very similar to what Yu Xin often wore. Yu Xin looked at the dress with a shocked expression. Then she said to Duanmu Que, "Brother Duanmu, is this what you want me to wear to the party tonight?"
Duanmu Que suddenly froze. Then he rubbed his head and said to Yu Xin apologetically, "I'm sorry, Xin Xin. I didn't think about the dress for the party, so … I'm sorry." Hearing Duanmu Que apologize to Yu Xin, I frowned.
Yu Xin sighed and put the dress back into the box. Then she looked at me and said to Duanmu Que, "What's the meaning of this dress?"
Duanmu Que explained, "I promised to buy it for you on your birthday last time, but I was too busy and forgot. I just happened to see it when I went out to work today, so I bought it. But I really didn't think about the dress for the party. I'm sorry."
Hearing Duanmu Que apologize again, I wasn't happy. I stood next to Duanmu Que and held his arm. Looking at him, I said, "You didn't do anything wrong. Why are you apologizing to her?"
Duanmu Que was just about to say something when Yu Xin interrupted: "She's right, you don't need to apologize to me. As long as it's something you buy for me, I'll like it." After she finished speaking, she took the gift box and walked out of the room.
Watching Yu Xin's figure disappear, Duanmu Que turned to me and asked, "What's wrong with Xin Xin? In the past, when I gave her presents, she was very happy. Why is she so cold today? "
I rolled my eyes at him. "It must be because you bought me a dress and only bought her a dress. She doesn't think it's fair."
He looked at me with a puzzled expression. "What's unfair about her? You're my wife, and she's just my little sister. What's so unfair about it?"
I looked at him and sighed. "Okay, don't think about it. Go and do your work. Mom and Dad are waiting."
Duanmu Que kissed me and left. I lay on the bed, and Yu Xin's cold face appeared in my mind.
At this moment, someone knocked on the door. I sat up. "Please come in."
The door opened, and Yu Xin came in. She was wearing the dress that Duanmu Que had given her. She stood in front of me and looked at me. "Does it look good?"
I picked up the pillow next to me and held it against my belly. "Why did you come here?"
Yu Xin sat on the edge of my bed and put her hand on my belly. She looked at me and said, "I warned you a long time ago not to let him fall in love with you. The more he loves you, the more I hate you. But you didn't listen. Now you're pregnant with his child. What right do you have to be pregnant with his child?"
I was afraid that she would hurt the child in my belly. In order to calm her down, I stood still and said, "Yu Xin, if you hurt me and the child in my belly, do you think Duanmu Que will let you go?"
Yu Xin smiled and stood up. With her back to me, she said, "Cold Glaze, you'd better not touch my bottom line again. Don't wait until I can't control myself. I don't know what crazy things I'll do. At that time, not only you and your child, but even your parents will be affected."
