Married to Officer, Pregnant Specialist becomes the Winner!-Chapter 94: [Ding! Host Detected to Be Pregnant!]
The door closed, and returning to the living room, Gu Jia Ning reached out her finger, white and jade-like, poking at Sheng Zexi’s chest, her voice soft and coquettish as she asked, "I didn’t expect that, just after Peng Wenjing left, another Li Shuyao came along. Battalion Commander Sheng, you have quite the peach blossoms."
"It seems a bit unfair, should I find a few peach blossoms too, ah!"
Before Gu Jia Ning could finish her teasing words, Sheng Zexi wrapped her in a hug and covered her mouth, assertively saying, "I won’t allow it, you can’t have any other peach blossoms."
"You’re only mine."
"If any other peach blossoms come, I’ll break one and pluck one."
Gu Jia Ning snorted softly, "What if it’s a whole peach tree, can you finish breaking it?"
"Then I’ll take an axe and chop it down, uproot it, and set it on fire," until spring comes and the spring breeze grows it anew.
Gu Jia Ning was amused by Sheng Zexi’s seriousness, patting his chest, "Okay, I’m just teasing you."
"But you do need to tell me, who is this Li Shuyao? Is she also in the art troupe that came this time?"
Sheng Zexi thought for a moment, uncertainly saying, "She should be, she’s indeed from the Beijing City Art Troupe, but whether she came this time, I don’t know."
Sheng Zexi wouldn’t go out of his way to find out, she had no intel on Li Shuyao or Zhang Shuyao.
"No worries, if she’s here, we can see her at the New Year’s Eve performance."
"Li Shuyao, she’s Mr. Li’s granddaughter..." Sheng Zexi explained the background of Li Shuyao to Gu Jia Ning.
After hearing Sheng Zexi’s explanation, Gu Jia Ning realized that before Mr. Li retired, he was in the same position as Sheng Zexi’s father now, and even now, he still holds considerable prestige.
Not only that, but the Li Family also has presence in military and political circles, making Li Shuyao genuinely well-connected.
Especially since Li Shuyao is Mr. Li’s only and most beloved granddaughter.
"Don’t you regret not marrying Li Shuyao? After all, marrying her could have greatly aided your career," Gu Jia Ning couldn’t help but ask.
She remembered Wen Zhqing from her past life, and even other men, wasn’t that how it went? Abandoning a wife or girlfriend without a background or support, choosing instead to marry a woman with deep connections, even if they didn’t love her.
For many men, women are insignificant in comparison to career, power, and wealth. Once those are secured, what kind of woman couldn’t they have?
Gu Jia Ning even somewhat doubted whether there truly exists in this world a love that lasts until death.
Just as she thought this, Gu Jia Ning suddenly felt a slight pain on her forehead. Instinctively feeling wronged, she looked up to meet Sheng Zexi’s fiery and somewhat wounded eyes.
"Gu Jia Ning, how could you not believe in me!"
Understanding Gu Jia Ning’s thoughts, Sheng Zexi almost immediately saw through it. With the slightest movement of her eyes, he knew what she was thinking.
Gu Jia Ning’s words were just probing him and showing distrust.
This made Sheng Zexi angry. Was his affection and love for her not obvious enough?
"Gu Jia Ning, let me tell you, I, Sheng Zexi, do not need to sacrifice marriage to gain so-called support!"
"Who I want to marry, I will marry; it will always be the woman I like and love! No one can force me."
"As for military achievements, career prospects, these, if I want them, I will strive to achieve them even if I have to risk my life! I believe in my ability to earn a good future."
"I want to believe that by marrying you, I will have enough ability to protect you."
Sheng Zexi held Gu Jia Ning’s shoulders with sincere and passionate eyes, "Ningning, trust me, okay?"
Gu Jia Ning was touched by the fiery intensity in Sheng Zexi’s gaze, her heart skipping a beat, filled to the brim as if by something.
Without needing to think, she nodded, following her heart, "Okay, I trust you."
Actually, her doubts only stemmed from the influence of her past life, but only for a moment, and she realized that wasn’t right.
In her past life, Sheng Zexi regarded her as the light of his heart, risking his life to save her from a fire, and even after she died, leaving a will to be buried with her.
And in this life, Sheng Zexi did so much for her, showing tender care after marriage in ways that were rare in men of this era, bit by bit, drawing her in and moving her, right?
The past life Sheng Zexi, she didn’t need to doubt.
The Sheng Zexi in this life proved it with his actions.
She shouldn’t doubt him!
"Then tell me, what is Li Shuyao like? She’s Mr. Li’s granddaughter, should I avoid her, let her have her way?" She said this, but leaning against Sheng Zexi’s chest, Gu Jia Ning’s eyes held a hint of danger.
If this man dared to let her give way to another woman, then...
That’s right, although she trusts Sheng Zexi, she still dug a small pitfall.
Sheng Zexi didn’t realize the trap Gu Jia Ning set, but her words made him a bit angry.
"Gu Jia Ning, what success do you desire that makes you give way to others?"
"No matter who it is, you don’t need to give way, do what you want, rest assured, whatever happens, Brother Xi will back you up."
The implication of Sheng Zexi’s words was that if anyone dared to mess with Gu Jia Ning, she could act, retaliate; her husband would have her back and support her!
Gu Jia Ning understood the implication and couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
"I can’t remember what Li Shuyao looks like; anyway, she can’t be as good-looking as my Ningning, and she’s annoying."
Sheng Zexi tried hard to recall, but really couldn’t remember Li Shuyao’s appearance.
He wasn’t face-blind, but he wouldn’t pay mind to those he didn’t care about and wouldn’t be interested.
The only impression Li Shuyao left on him was her constant pestering while he was in Beijing, which was quite annoying.
Other than that, nothing.
"Okay." Gu Jia Ning saw that Sheng Zexi wasn’t lying.
Actually, Gu Jia Ning wasn’t very concerned about Li Shuyao, after all, she and Sheng Zexi were married, and it was a military marriage!
If Li Shuyao still tried to interfere, it would be shameless on her part.
Moreover, Gu Jia Ning wasn’t afraid to face her.
After all, Li Shuyao might have the Li Family backing her, but Gu Jia Ning had a future technology—the Childbirth System as her support.
As long as she had enough points, there was nothing she couldn’t achieve.
In the following days, Gu Jia Ning thought she might run into Li Shuyao, or that person might show up at their door, yet nothing happened.
Before they knew it, New Year’s Eve arrived.
That day, as soon as Gu Jia Ning opened her eyes, she heard the system’s voice in her mind.
