In the bedroom, Gu Zhihan, who was feeding Mengmeng bird’s nest with a spoon, had never imagined someone could be so self-enamored.
He had just taken the bird’s nest from her hands—a touch of her hand in passing. Wasn’t that perfectly normal?
Mengmeng ate the bird’s nest in small mouthfuls.
After finishing, Gu Zhihan wiped the corners of her mouth with a tissue.
Once he finished wiping, Gu Zhihan asked, "Do you want some more?"
Mengmeng quickly shook her head, "No more, I’m almost stuffed to death."
If she ate any more, she thought her stomach might explode.
"Then let’s not eat anymore," Gu Zhihan said with a smile, and after a moment, as if he had just thought of something, he added, "I’m considering learning medicine."
"What?" Mengmeng’s eyes widened in surprise. "Are you planning to change careers to become a doctor?"
Gu Zhihan shook his head, "No... I just want to study obstetrics and personally deliver our baby."
Luo Mengmeng was instantly speechless, "You really do have some unique ideas."
Just to personally assist in her delivery, he actually thought about becoming a doctor.
He was truly a fighter among oddballs!
"Do you think it’s a bad idea?" Gu Zhihan glanced at the expression on her face.
Mengmeng shook her head, "Not at all, I fully support whatever you want to do."
Since he had this idea, it meant he deeply cared for her and their child; she had no reason to be unhappy.
"Good girl," Gu Zhihan leaned down and kissed her forehead, then said, "I’ll go to the study to read some books."
He needed to pass the qualification exam before she gave birth.
"Okay." Mengmeng kissed him back and waved her hand, "Then you should go."
"Mm, I’ll call a maid to keep you company."
After making all the arrangements, Gu Zhihan left the room.
She wasn’t a three-year-old child who needed supervision to sleep in her bedroom.
But to ease Gu Zhihan’s mind, she finally didn’t send the maid away.
Once Gu Zhihan was in the study, he sat down in front of the computer to read.
Zhao Xue saw Gu Zhihan move from the bedroom to the study and asked the nearby maid out of curiosity, "Why isn’t the master resting with his wife?"
"Who knows, maybe he still has some work unfinished," the maid who was cleaning shrugged.
Zhao Xue pursed her lips, as if she had thought of something, she promptly went back to her quarters in the servant’s room and took out her makeup, beginning to primp and preen.
She even unbuttoned two buttons of her maid’s uniform, revealing a hint of cleavage.
Seeing her reflection in the mirror, no less charming than the city girls, a smile full of ambition bloomed on Zhao Xue’s cheeks.
Then, she made a cup of coffee and headed towards the study.
She first knocked on the door, "Sir, do you need coffee?"
Gu Zhihan, who was annoyed by interruptions while reading, rejected her outright.
But Zhao Xue, not willing to give up, just opened the door and walked in.
"Sir, this is your favorite coffee, please have a taste..."
Zhao Xue put on a helpless and innocent look, eagerly holding the coffee out to him.
Gu Zhihan looked up displeased, but his deeply ingrained good manners held back any harsh words.
He gave her a cold look, "Leave it here, you can go now."
"Yes, sir..." said Zhao Xue.
But in reality, she was far from willing to just walk away.
For several months, she had not found him alone; now that the opportunity was right before her, how could she be satisfied just to leave after setting down the coffee.
