Accidentally Married to the Big Shot

Gu Wei couldn’t help but feel aggrieved; he’d unintentionally lit the fuse.

She had been bottling up her frustration all day, now searching for an outlet. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

"I just hugged our son earlier, kissed him too. After hugging and kissing him, I came upstairs to hug you." Gu Wei’s survival instincts were strong.

Now that’s more like it!

Su Meixi’s anger found no place to go.

She felt a quiet sadness.

"Honey, you’ve worked so hard lately, breastfeeding, taking care of our son, and your body hasn’t fully recovered yet. How about this: stop breastfeeding and let’s find some good formula to see if our son likes it?"

Su Meixi’s eyes noticeably brightened for a moment but quickly rejected the suggestion: "No, formula—no matter how good—can’t compare to breast milk."

"Actually, that idea isn’t entirely scientific. Whether breast milk is good or not depends on the mother’s health. If we choose high-quality formula, the nutrition can still be guaranteed."

Su Meixi asked, "Aren’t you worried that your son will have weak immunity? Aren’t you worried he’ll get sick all the time? Aren’t you worried he won’t grow as tall as his peers?"

Gu Wei laughed, "Worried about what? Our good genes are right here. If his immunity is weak in the future, I’ll take him jogging, swimming, playing soccer every day. I refuse to believe he could be worse off."

Su Meixi finally laughed and asked, "So, what brand of formula should we choose?"

"I heard that domestic formulas are really good nowadays; just choose the gold label, and the nutrition is excellent."

"Then... should we give it a try?"

...

When Aunt Lan heard Su Meixi wanted to switch to formula feeding, she felt puzzled but didn’t dare to say anything directly to her.

Things like this aren’t for outsiders to comment on.

Not even for the mother-in-law; it’s just meddling. The child belongs to them—whether they want milk or formula is their decision, so why interfere?

Aunt Lan couldn’t hold back and mentioned it to Gu Wei, "Mr. Gu, is it really necessary to switch Xiao Zhao to formula?"

"Yes, we’ll start by trying formula feeding."

"But I’ve heard breast milk is better. Children who drink breast milk are less likely to fall sick in the future."

"Those are outdated views. Breastfeeding is too exhausting; it’s not good for the mother." After Gu Wei finished speaking, he warned Aunt Lan sternly, "Don’t bring this up in front of Ah Xi. Just say formula is good."

Aunt Lan didn’t understand why Gu Wei insisted on this, but since she was just a nanny, whatever the master says goes.

Gu Wei didn’t only talk to Aunt Lan about this; he also mentioned it to Li Shirui.

He sent Li Shirui a message ahead of time, explaining Su Meixi’s condition and sharing the knowledge he’d found online.

Li Shirui immediately understood Gu Wei’s intent and said quickly, "I’ll visit her tomorrow and tell her not to feel pressured. Whether breast milk is the best doesn’t matter—what’s the priority is making sure Mom feels okay. When she feels better after her postpartum confinement period, she’ll have more energy to care for the child. Otherwise, if she ends up with depression, the baby will suffer. I’ve heard postpartum depression can take years to recover from."

When Li Shirui and Xi Wanfen visited Su Meixi, they both mentioned this to her.

Seeing that everyone supported her, Su Meixi finally let go of her burden.

...

After seeing Su Meixi and Xiao Zhao, Xi Wanfen and Li Shirui drove home together.

As she drove, Xi Wanfen said, "Brother-in-law is amazing—he thinks about everything for my sister. In the future, I’m marrying someone just like him."

Li Shirui replied, "Your dad treats me well too. Didn’t you always say you wanted to marry someone like your dad?"

"Someone like Dad is exactly like Brother-in-law, isn’t it? Sis is so lucky—she has two of the same kind of man: one as her dad, one as her husband."

Li Shirui smiled quietly.

Xi Wanfen continued, "When I saw Xiao Zhao earlier, that little guy, not even a month old, already looks so cool. Who knows—maybe he’ll grow up to be just like Brother-in-law. Sister will end up with three of the same kind of man."

Li Shirui couldn’t hold back her laughter, "Your mouth is getting sharper and sharper—who taught you this?"

"What do you mean? That’s just how I am!"

"That’s not true. You weren’t always like this. You used to be sweet and delicate every day, and your dad and I were always worried that you’d be bullied and taken advantage of."

Xi Wanfen couldn’t help but picture Qiu Shuai’s chubby little face.

Lately, she’d been boxing and sparring with Qiu Shuai every day, arguing with him non-stop, and her debating skills had improved.

...

Hospital.

Xi Wanfen arrived early today. After dropping off Li Shirui at home, she came straight to work.

At this hour, the elevators were packed, and patients were constantly being moved between floors for tests. She took the elevator to the 7th floor and then started using the stairs.

After climbing two floors, she faintly heard Liang Zhanbai’s voice coming from the stairwell.

"... You’ve been spreading so many rumors on the hospital staff forum just to get me to go on a date?"

Xi Wanfen’s heart skipped a beat. Who was Liang Zhanbai speaking to?

She instinctively stopped, not daring to interrupt.

After a while, a familiar voice echoed from above: "I really like you."

"No wonder you’ve been following me everywhere, asking about my business."

"I’m sorry, Dr. Liang. Actually, I liked you from the moment I first saw you. Back then, you were dating Xiao Fen all the time—I was so jealous. But when I saw how much you liked Xiao Fen, I chose to silently wish you well. Later, when you liked Dr. Dang, I sincerely hoped you’d win her over this time. But you didn’t get married, and then you kept going on blind dates. I thought, why not consider me? I don’t play coy; I don’t mind having kids if I marry into your family.’ I’d even be willing to stay home and be your housewife."

Xi Wanfen felt an inexplicable shock in her heart, as if someone was hammering away at it.

She had always thought Xiao Li was just gossipy, but it turned out Xiao Li had been harboring feelings for Liang Zhanbai all along!

What a hidden secret!

Xiao Li, usually timid and the department’s good-natured employee, was only about 25, had never been in a relationship, and was average in looks and height. When she dressed up for team outings, she could be attractive.

Xi Wanfen stood frozen as she listened to everything above. A long while later, she heard Liang Zhanbai say, "You’re not my type."

Then, footsteps moved away from upstairs, followed by Xiao Li quietly sobbing.

Xi Wanfen slipped back to the elevator area, preferring to wait ten minutes for the elevator.

That afternoon, she noticed Xiao Li’s eyes were red, her mood obviously low.

During a break, she opened the hospital staff forum and saw several posts about Liang Zhanbai’s blind dates.

One post asked, "Soul-searching question: why does someone so handsome still need blind dates?"

No wonder so many people knew about Liang Zhanbai’s dating life—it was all Xiao Li’s doing.

But Xiao Li didn’t realize this was an internal forum. If Liang Zhanbai asked the tech department for information, he’d easily know who had posted it.

Or maybe this was her way of deliberately catching Liang Zhanbai’s attention.
