How did they progress ? How long has it been? So fast?
Ever since giving Dai Zihan Wen Zeyu’s contact information, Xiao Li always maintained an observer’s role and never inquired about their relationship.
But now, why does Xiao Li feel like she missed a lot?
Feng Qing, being impatient, saw Dai Zihan just blushing and not speaking, so she urged, "Zhihan, don’t just blush! What’s there to be embarrassed about with us?
Come on, spill it... What’s going on?"
Just as she finished speaking, the doorbell rang. Feng Qing went to open it; it was the food delivery. Xiao Li saw the food and suggested they eat first...
She thought that if she asked directly, Dai Zihan might be too shy to explain, so chatting while eating seemed appropriate...
The main reason was that she was hungry and couldn’t stand it anymore!
Once the dishes were served, they started eating. Feng Qing noticed Xiao Li eating heartily and asked her, "Little Li Li, are you no longer experiencing morning sickness?"
Xiao Li shook her head, "Not anymore, strangely enough. During the New Year, when I was home, I was throwing up terribly. But now that I’m back at work in the hospital, I don’t feel sick anymore, and everything tastes great..."
Feng Qing laughed, "Perhaps you’re just meant to be busy!
Clearly destined to live a pampered life, yet unable to enjoy the good fortune.
On TV, the pregnant women always get pampered, but for you, why is it different?
The more you’re pampered, the worse it gets."
Xiao Li nodded, "A thin fortune can’t withstand too much pampering!"
Dai Zihan, listening by the side, innocently asked, "Little Li Li, was it really uncomfortable when you had morning sickness?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Li exchanged a glance with Feng Qing and casually replied, "It’s alright. When it comes to vomiting, it feels like my stomach is about to come out, but during times like now, it’s just fine!
You see, I can eat anything now, but at home, things like fish were a no-go when put in front of me."
Saying this, Xiao Li pushed the plate of sweet and sour fish in front of her toward Dai Zihan to show her. But as soon as it reached in front of Dai Zihan, she covered her mouth and ran off.
Dai Zihan ran off, leaving the three at the table stunned.
Xiao Li looked at Feng Qing and Xiao Wenjing, "You two live with her every day. Tell me, what’s going on?"
Feng Qing swallowed, "Zhihan’s partner is your cousin, shouldn’t you be the one to explain what’s happening?"
The three of them looked towards the bathroom. Feng Qing and Xiao Wenjing quickly reacted and went to check on Dai Zihan, while Xiao Li stayed put, thinking that even though she no longer had morning sickness, watching someone else vomit would not be great for her...
After a while, Feng Qing returned, supporting a pale-looking Dai Zihan. After this incident, no one had much of an appetite; Dai Zihan couldn’t even stand the smell and went straight to the couch.
Once back on the couch, Xiao Li became serious, "Zhihan, what’s really going on?
Are you really in a relationship with Wen Zeyu?
Was that morning sickness just now, or something else?"
Even though all of Dai Zihan’s reactions today pointed more towards morning sickness, Xiao Li was not about to jump to conclusions.
Dai Zihan shook her head, "I don’t even know if Wen Zeyu and I are considered dating."
Feng Qing got anxious upon hearing this, "What do you mean by that?
What’s the situation?"
Xiao Li tugged at Feng Qing’s hand, signaling her to calm down...
Dai Zihan softly spoke, "Initially, when I added Wen Zeyu’s contact, it was partly because I found him adorably awkward, and partly because I was curious about his work.
You all know, I like watching those grave-robbing shows and programs about ancient history and artifacts.
When I first learned he was an archaeologist and antique restorer, my interest was piqued.
When we first started chatting, it was mostly about history. I asked him about things I didn’t understand from the programs I watched.
Later, because Wen Zeyu wanted to give Little Li Li one of his collection items as a gift, he asked me, as her friend, to help him choose, so I went to his place where he keeps his collection. ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ novel·fıre·net
There were many things I’d never seen before, some dating back thousands of years. Every time I visited, Wen Zeyu and I would chat a lot.
Because the subject matter was something he enjoyed, our conversations were less awkward, and he was quite talkative.
The last time I saw him was before the New Year. Wen Zeyu wanted to pick out a gift for Little Li Li for the holiday, and everything was going well; we even picked out a gift for her.
But just as we were leaving that room, an accident happened.
His collection room is in the basement. To leave, we had to take the stairs. I was walking ahead, and Wen Zeyu was behind me holding the items.
As we were walking up, I tripped on an uneven step and fell backward. Wen Zeyu dropped what he was holding to catch me, becoming my cushion.
Panicking about the broken antiques, I hurried to check on them. Before I knew it, instead of standing up, I fell again and accidentally kissed him...
When we kissed, both of us were shocked, and then it just...
Honestly, even afterward, I didn’t quite understand how it all happened..."
The three of them were stunned, especially Xiao Li, who never expected Wen Zeyu to do something like that to Dai Zihan.
So they say, no matter how clumsy a man is, when it comes to matters between men and women, he won’t be clumsy, right?
After processing for a while, Xiao Li said, "So, Zhihan... umm... afterward, didn’t you guys clarify the...
Oh my gosh! How am I supposed to say this?"
Dai Zihan softly replied, "Are you asking if we clarified our relationship?
Afterwards, Wen Zeyu did say he wanted to take responsibility, but that’s not what I wanted.
I told him that since the incident just happened, any decision we make would be irrational.
I said we’re all adults; it was just something natural that happened in the moment. There’s no need to talk about responsibility. I suggested we both calm down and talk after the impulse had passed.
Then, the New Year came. During the holiday, he did call me, but I was back in S City, so I said we would talk when I returned.
When I came back to B City a couple of days ago, Wen Zeyu had just left for Yu Zhou City with his teacher due to an archaeological discovery of a tomb with significant value.
So, we still haven’t had a proper conversation about our relationship..."
Xiao Li remained silent for a while after hearing this, "Are you sure you’re pregnant?"
Dai Zihan shook her head, "Not sure, the incident happened only half a month ago. But I forgot to take the pill afterwards.
My period is two days late, but since it’s still early, I’m not sure..."
Feng Qing jumped up, "Are you out of your mind?
It’s one thing for that to happen, but for you to be so careless about protecting yourself—what will you do if you are pregnant?"
