"Yangzi, why are you running so fast?
You haven't told me about Xiao Yu's situation yet."
Lü Liang dialed Guo Xu Yang's number.
"Brother Liang, do you want a boy or a girl?"
"Of course a boy. Girls are easily bullied."
"With the two of you here, who would dare bully her?"
"Stop playing games with me and tell me quickly."
"I already told you.
Brother Liang, boys and girls are the same. If it doesn't work out, we'll become in-laws."
Guo Xu Yang said.
"Get lost. Who wants to be your in-law?
Did you check properly?"
Lü Liang was still a bit unwilling.
"If you don't believe me, then ask Xiao Yu to go to the hospital for a check-up."
"If she could, why would I need to find you? Xiao Yu refuses to do anything.
She said she wants the first child, whether it's a boy or a girl."
"What Xiao Yu said is very right. Why are your ideas still so old-fashioned?
Besides, the three-child policy is already in effect. You can keep trying."
"I know. I don't need your advice.
What's going on between you and that Zhan Yifang?
She seems to like you a bit."
"It's a long story.
Is there anything else?
If not, I'm hanging up."
"You have so many wives anyway. One more won't hurt."
"Don't say that. If Xiao Xi hears it, you won't be able to come to my house anymore."
"Is Xiao Xi still that bossy?
I didn't feel it before."
"It's different now. Perhaps she senses a threat."
"I heard that Zhan Yifang's father is very influential."
"Otherwise, I wouldn't have gone to the bar with them last night.
It's about the land needed for building the estate.
Her dad is in charge of that area."
"The person Director Cheng mentioned is her dad?"
"Yes. Otherwise, why would I bother with her?"
"That's not right. What I heard them saying earlier sounds like you did it?"
"Brother Liang, you can't just say things like that.
It took me so much effort to clear myself. You can't smear me."
"They've all left, and it's just us two.
Tell me the truth, did you do it?"
"No, absolutely not.
Would I do something like that?"
Guo Xu Yang denied it emphatically.
Joke aside, he wouldn't admit it even if he said it in person, let alone over the phone.
As long as he wasn't caught red-handed, he would resolutely deny it.
"I see.
You've changed, kid. When did you become so sneaky?"
"Alright, I'm done chatting with you.
I'm arriving at Director Wu's place soon."
Guo Xu Yang said and hung up.
Lü Liang looked at the disconnected phone and couldn't help but shake his head.
The current Guo Xu Yang had indeed changed, becoming somewhat darker.
In the past, no matter what he did, he had a bottom line.
Now, for those beautiful women, he was probably a nightmare.
"Director Wu, are you home?"
Guo Xu Yang didn't get out of the car but dialed Wu Youzhi's number.
"I'm home, Yangzi.
Where are you?"
Wu Youzhi's voice came through the phone.
"I'm on my way to your place. Wait for me, I'll be there soon."
"Do you still remember where I live?
Shall I come down and pick you up later?"
"No need, I know the way. I'll be there soon."
Guo Xu Yang said and hung up.
He got out of the car, bought some nutritional supplements at the supermarket, and then carried them straight to Wu Youzhi's doorstep, knocking on the door.
"You didn't have to buy so much when you came."
"It's not for you. Take it quickly.
You're cutting off my fingers."
"Look at me, I was just talking. Come in quickly."
Wu Youzhi said, taking the items.
"Where's sister-in-law?"
Guo Xu Yang changed his shoes and looked towards the living room, not seeing Wu Aili.
"She's lying in bed in the bedroom.
Aili, Yangzi is here."
Wu Youzhi said, calling out towards the room.
"Yangzi is here?"
Wu Aili's voice came from the bedroom.
"I'll get out of bed now."
"Sister-in-law, no need.
Just stay in bed."
Guo Xu Yang said quickly.
"It's okay, it's just a bit difficult to walk."
Wu Aili came out wearing a loose nightgown.
"How can this be?
What did the doctor say?"
Guo Xu Yang said, looking at Wu Aili with surprise.
Wu Aili had completely changed in appearance.
She was emaciated, only her belly was large.
"The doctor said she's not getting enough nutrition, and the baby in her belly is growing too fast."
Wu Youzhi said.
"What era is this?
How can there be a lack of nutrition?
What do you usually eat?"
Guo Xu Yang said with some annoyance.
"Chicken, duck, fish, meat, all sorts of seafood and fruits. I haven't lacked anything in terms of food.
But the baby is growing fast and needs a lot of nutrients."
"How does sister-in-law eat? How many meals a day?"
"I cook when I'm hungry, not on a schedule.
At most, I have to eat every two hours.
Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to take care of her at home every day, let alone manage the shop's business."
"This isn't scientific. If she eats so much, why is she still so thin?"
Guo Xu Yang said, looking at Wu Aili's belly.
Perhaps sensing Guo Xu Yang's gaze, the little one inside kicked Wu Aili's belly forcefully.
"Ouch, it hurts so much."
Wu Aili cried out.
"What's wrong? Are you alright?"
Wu Youzhi quickly stepped forward to support Wu Aili and asked.
"I don't know who kicked me, it almost broke my liver and galls."
Wu Aili said, catching her breath.
"If the little one is naughty, it needs to be spanked."
Guo Xu Yang said with a chuckle.
"It's alright, sister-in-law. It was my fault for not seeing clearly, making you suffer."
"Yangzi, what's going on?"
Wu Youzhi asked.
"There's a mischievous little fellow hiding."
Guo Xu Yang paused and said.
"How about this, Director Wu, go to the hotel later and find Liu He.
Ask him for a hundred catties of deer meat, and also get a tiger bone from him.
Boil five catties of this deer meat every day for sister-in-law to eat with the broth. She should continue to eat other vegetables.
Boil that tiger bone into soup, one pot a day, and let sister-in-law drink it like tea.
When the deer meat is finished, then call me over again.
If sister-in-law's weight increases, you can switch from deer meat to lamb."
"Will this work?"
Wu Youzhi was skeptical.
"Try it first. I can't say for sure if it will have any effect.
However, sister-in-law still needs to exercise and shouldn't lie in bed all day.
This is not good for the fetus or for her."
Guo Xu Yang said.
"Yangzi, it's not that I don't want to go downstairs, it's just that I don't have the strength to move."
Wu Aili said from the side.
"If you don't have strength, you should still turn around in the room with Director Wu supporting you.
Prolonged lack of exercise is bad for your health."
"Alright then, I'll walk around every day from now on."
"Yes, do what you can. If you feel tired, rest for a while.
Get some sunshine when you can, as it also helps with calcium absorption."
"I will pay attention," Wu Aili said.
