Chapter 1527: 1526 endure for a few months first
Weekend
An Lin and Qin Mu went back to G City together, to see Qin Zhongnan.
After a few days of rest, Qin Zhongnan looked a bit better. Although his body was still weak, he couldn’t sit still and started looking at documents.
When Qin Mu and An Lin arrived at the ward, they saw Qin Zhongnan leaning against the headboard. Besides Mother Qin, there was also a man in a military uniform standing at the foot of the bed.
Seeing Qin Mu and An Lin come in, Mother Qin looked as if she had seen a savior and immediately said, “Ah Mu, please persuade your dad. He never listens to me, no matter what I say.”
An Lin glanced at Mother Qin, then at Father Qin on the bed, and finally turned to look at Qin Mu.
She suddenly understood that Qin Mu’s stubbornness was inherited from his father.
Qin Mu walked over, greeted the man standing by the bed, and asked him to wait outside.
After the man left, Qin Mu reached out to snatch the documents from Qin Zhongnan’s hands, wearing a composed handsome face, and said seriously, “Dad, if you don’t listen to mom, how can you not even listen to the doctor?”
“Ah Mu, give it to me.”
The document that Qin Zhongnan was reading halfway was snatched by his son, and his face immediately changed color.
Eventually, realizing he had not fully recovered from his serious injury, Qin Zhongnan’s expression softened after a moment. He reached out to ask Qin Mu for the document, “Ah Mu, I’ve read halfway through it, give it to me, let me finish this report.”
“What is more important, your health, or this report?”
Qin Mu casually handed it to Mother Qin beside him.
Annoyance flashed in Qin Zhongnan’s eyes. Mother Qin immediately laughed, “Old Qin, if you don’t listen to me, you at least have to listen to your son. Right now, the priority is to get healthy.”
Mother Qin glanced at An Lin standing next to Qin Mu and added, “In a few months, you’re going to be a grandfather. Nothing is more important than that. It’s not like nobody else can handle work without you.”
Mentioning An Lin, Qin Zhongnan’s face indeed looked better.
“Dad, you should just rest well and heal first…”
Seeing Qin Zhongnan’s gaze turn to her, An Lin smiled and urged him as well.
“Alright then, since An Lin also says so, I won’t worry about anything and focus on recovering first.”
After speaking, he looked at Qin Mu again, “Ah Mu, An Lin is not the same as before, you must take good care of her.”
“Dad, actually…”
“Dad, mom has already warned me over and over again.”
Qin Mu interrupted An Lin, then shifted the topic back to Qin Zhongnan’s injury.
“An Lin, let’s go out and let the father and son talk.”
Mother Qin gazed at An Lin’s fingers, pulled her out of the ward to the outside lounge.
“An Lin, your nails are done beautifully.”
Mother Qin admired An Lin’s hand while complimenting.
An Lin chuckled, “Mom, there’s something I need to confess to you.”
“What is it?”
Mother Qin looked at her in surprise, “Is it because of your nails? There’s no need to confess, mom knows you young people love beauty.”
“…”
An Lin wanted to say that Mother Qin misunderstood.
But Mother Qin didn’t seem to give her a chance to speak, she continued, “Mom isn’t against it. Actually, I think these nails look really nice. But, given your current situation, those things affect fetal development.”
“Mom.”
An Lin decided to tell Mother Qin that she wasn’t pregnant.
This type of thing can be deceived for a day or two, but not for a year or two.
Currently, it’s possible to say it’s early pregnancy and not noticeable, but after two or three months, wouldn’t it be obvious?
Thinking about this point, she couldn’t help but inwardly curse Qin Mu, for being capable of using any means.
“An Lin, I just think, for these few months, we should stay away from such things, make a little sacrifice, and when the baby is born, you can do whatever you want.”
Mother Qin explained again, fearing An Lin was upset.
“Mom, actually I don’t have…”
“An Lin.”
Her words were cut off again by Qin Mu.
He came out of the ward, glanced at Mother Qin, who was puzzled between her brows, and said gently, “Mom, I’ll first take An Lin back to rest, and then come back to the hospital later.”
“Alright, alright, An Lin must be tired from the flight, go home and rest first.”
Mother Qin smiled lovingly, assuming An Lin’s unfinished sentence was about her nails.
She didn’t think in other directions.
And certainly wouldn’t imagine that her pregnancy was fake.
In the car, Qin Mu looked displeased at An Lin, “An Lin, don’t tell them the pregnancy is fake for now.”
An Lin pulled over the seatbelt and fastened it, “Ah Mu, this kind of thing cannot be deceived forever. In two more months, they’ll still find out.”
She really felt it was unnecessary.
Qin Mu pressed his lips together, reached out to hold her hand.
An Lin instinctively pulled away.
His hand fell empty, Qin Mu’s expression stiffened, and a trace of gloom crossed his eyes as he calmly said, “Let’s talk about it later, maybe by then, you might really be pregnant.”
“Dream on!”
An Lin glared at him.
Qin Mu, however, laughed, “Rest assured, I won’t force you, An Lin, I mean that maybe by then, I will have fallen in love with you. If I fall in love with you, won’t you stop being mad at me?”
“I’m not currency, so how could it be so easy for you to fall in love?”
This time, Qin Mu chuckled out loud.
His handsome brows relaxed, and his features, illuminated by his smile, were noble and elegant, his voice cheerful and clear, “I’m not greedy for money, I have no big interest in currency.”
He paused, and the corners of his eyes narrowed with a smile, tilting slightly towards her, “An Lin, right now I really want us to have a child.”
An Lin was annoyed by his constant attempts to disrupt her emotions, her brows furrowed, “Just drive.”
***
In the two days that Qin Mu and An Lin went to City C, Mom An and Mother Qin stayed at Bai Yuqin’s home.
Because she lives alone, the three women, not far apart in age, still had common topics to discuss.
Especially since Tongtong had also been staying at Bai Yuqin’s home these past few days.
An Lin called Mom An, who said she wasn’t coming back, so An Lin didn’t press her.
“It’s good mom stays there.”
Qin Mu said gently after An Lin hung up the phone.
In the afternoon, when Gu Kai got off work, Qin Mu left the hospital with him.
“How are things between you and An Lin?”
Coming out of the elevator, Gu Kai asked with concern.
Qin Mu’s lips curled into a self-deprecating smile, “It’s my own doing. An Lin has now relegated me back to a friend’s position, like before we got married.”
Gu Kai laughed immorally, “That sounds like An Lin, did you spread the news about her pregnancy to make it come true by working hard?”
Leaving the hospital, Qin Mu asked Gu Kai where his car was.
Gu Kai bluntly replied, “I’m not driving today, you drive me home.”
Qin Mu pointed to the left parking lot, replying, “It becoming true requires An Lin to be willing as well.”
“So you’ve become so pathetic now?”
Gu Kai suddenly stopped, looking at Qin Mu exaggeratedly, “Brother, you are a man, you should put your pride aside and be proactive.”
