Married to Officer, Pregnant Specialist becomes the Winner!-Chapter 181 - 180: "A wan, I Came to See You.

Waking up in the evening, Gu Jia Ning felt relaxed in both body and mind.

Indeed, sleep is truly the source of life.

Beside her, Sheng Zexi was no longer there, and she didn’t know when he got up.

"You’re awake." It seemed he heard some movement, Sheng Zexi appeared at the door.

When Gu Jia Ning was about to get up, Sheng Zexi hurriedly walked over to assist her.

Since Gu Jia Ning’s pregnancy advanced, getting up or lying down from the bed became a bit difficult.

However, whenever Sheng Zexi was around, he would always come to help her.

By now, he was quite practiced at it.

His movements were also very gentle.

Gu Jia Ning felt a warmth in her heart, sometimes, loving someone is reflected in these little everyday details.

As her pregnancy advanced, she also needed to use the bathroom more frequently.

She used to be able to sleep through the night, but not anymore; she had to get up for the toilet at night.

Every time she moved, Sheng Zexi would wake up and accompany her to the toilet.

It’s because the toilet was outside in the courtyard, requiring a short walk.

Sheng Zexi worried about her safety if she got up alone at night.

So he always accompanied her, sometimes even two or three times a night.

Gu Jia Ning felt sorry because he had to wake up early for training the next day, so she initially refused his help.

But Sheng Zexi was very insistent.

"It’s quite common for me to go days and nights without sleep during missions."

"Accompanying you to the toilet doesn’t affect me."

"I’d be more worried if I didn’t accompany you."

"Besides, you’re the one who works the hardest, being pregnant."

When Gu Jia Ning heard these words, what was she thinking?

She thought, maybe that’s why a woman would want to have a child? She thought, perhaps the fundamental reason is that a father loves a mother.

And what is love? Love is cherishing, protecting, often feeling indebted, feeling not good enough, and wanting to be even better to her.

Gu Jia Ning thought that most women actually need love, whether it’s romantic love, family love, or friendship. All this love is like nourishment for a flower, eventually helping her grow better.

This is the best explanation for that saying: loving someone is like nurturing a flower.

Assisting Gu Jia Ning to get up, Sheng Zexi then brought out clothes for her to put on, before leading her out of the room.

At this time, Grandpa Sang had already returned.

Hearing Gu Jia Ning sweetly calling him grandpa, the old man kept nodding happily, repeatedly reminding Sheng Zexi to take good care of Gu Jia Ning.

The Sang family had a housekeeper assigned specifically because of Grandpa Sang’s identity and age.

At that moment, the housekeeper had already prepared dinner.

"Ning girl, try some. Aunt Zhao is a good cook and has experience caring for pregnant women. She’s made some dishes suitable for you," Grandma Sang said warmly.

"Okay."

At the dining table, Grandpa Sang and Grandma Sang constantly added food to Gu Jia Ning’s plate, afraid she might not eat enough.

Gu Jia Ning returned the favor, adding food to their plates, making the couple’s smiles widen.

Only Sheng Zexi watched this scene in amusement: why does it feel like Ningning is the treasured granddaughter, while he, the real grandson, seems like he’s been picked up from the street?

However, seeing Ningning get along so well with his grandpa and grandma.

Seeing them cherish Ningning so much made Sheng Zexi even happier than when they cherished him.

After dinner, when Sheng Zexi jokingly complained to Gu Jia Ning about it.

Gu Jia Ning gave him a coy glare, "I don’t believe you don’t know."

Sheng Zexi: "Know what?"

"Know why grandpa and grandma treat me so well."

"Then what do you think it is?"

"Of course, it’s love by association."

Sheng Zexi froze, then laughed, yes, it’s indeed love by association.

The next day was Sang Yuwan’s memorial day.

Sheng Zexi took Gu Jia Ning, along with his grandparents and offerings, to Sang Yuwan’s gravesite.

Gu Jia Ning looked at the photo on the tombstone, a small black and white picture where you could still make out Sang Yuwan’s features.

Without a doubt, her mother-in-law was a beauty in her youth.

Unfortunately, beauty is often short-lived.

Because the elderly couple would come often, the area was kept very clean by them.

At that moment, Sheng Zexi took out a cloth and gently wiped the tombstone.

"Mom, it’s Xiao Xi, I’ve come to see you."

"I’m married now, you have a daughter-in-law."

"Her name is Gu Jia Ning; she’s beautiful like you, and she’s very kind and brave."

"We even have children on the way; in a few months, two children will be born."

"Mom, you’ll be happy for me, won’t you?"

"If you have a spirit in heaven, bless me and Ningning, along with grandpa and grandma, with peace and health."

Sheng Zexi murmured, saying a lot.

His face remained calm, but Gu Jia Ning, who knew him well, could see the longing and fleeting sorrow in his eyes.

Grandpa Sang and Grandma Sang, listening to their grandson’s words, couldn’t help but tear up.

After Sheng Zexi finished speaking, Gu Jia Ning also stepped up to pay her respects.

She opened her mouth and said, "Hello, mother-in-law, I’m Gu Jia Ning, Brother Xi’s wife..."

Gu Jia Ning chattered on about many things.

She talked about their current life and recent events, just as if she were talking household matters.

At the very end, she said, "...Rest assured, we will be fine."

"Okay, okay." Grandpa Sang and Grandma Sang listened, unable to hold back their tears as they nodded repeatedly.

After spending an hour in the cemetery, the four of them planned to leave.

But just then, they heard footsteps approaching.

Gu Jia Ning turned around and saw a man in military uniform, with sharp and strong features, walking over with a bouquet of white eustomas.

If you looked closely, you could see a resemblance between the man’s features and Sheng Zexi’s.

Gu Jia Ning had a vague suspicion.

She looked back at Sheng Zexi, and as expected, upon seeing the man, Sheng Zexi’s face darkened, his eyes filled with disdain, his demeanor suddenly bristling with thorns.

The man was indeed Sheng Xinhao.

He walked up and nodded to Grandpa Sang and Grandma Sang, then placed the bouquet of white eustomas before the tombstone.

Looking at the photo on the tombstone, a look of reminiscence and sadness passed through Sheng Xinhao’s eyes.

"A wan, I’ve come to see you."

As soon as Sheng Xinhao finished speaking, a light sneer was heard behind him.

"Such trouble for Mr. Sheng, being so busy, and still remembering my mom. I thought with a young wife and a child on the way, you’d have completely forgotten about her by now."

Sheng Xinhao turned around to see Sheng Zexi, with sharp and rebellious eyes.

Sheng Xinhao had to admit, this eldest son resembled him most in his younger days and was also very outstanding.

However, he was also disobedient.

Every meeting ended in a quarrel.

Just listen to the words being said!

Sheng Xinhao’s face sank, "Sheng Zexi, no matter what, I am your father! Do you have to talk to your father this way?"
