Hiding her pregnant belly and leaving, the CEO's ex-husband cried red eyes

An Xia had to admit that even after experiencing so many disappointments and hurts, she couldn't help but feel soft-hearted when she heard Lu Beichuan's sincere words of repentance.

This was not just what she had been waiting and longing for during her three years of marriage.

It was also what she had been looking forward to during her ten-year secret love.

I hope Lu Beichuan can have feelings for her that go beyond family members.

Even if it was only one-tenth of what she had for him, it would be enough.

Feeling An Xia's slight trembling, Lu Beichuan suddenly held her hand tightly.

"Give me one more chance, and I swear, I will treat you well and take good care of our child."

...

...

Nothing came of that first heart-to-heart, heartfelt conversation in the garden that day.

An Xia returned to the ward and began her pregnancy care life day after day.

Lu Beichuan still lived in the ward next to hers. In addition to delivering meals to An Xia three times a day, he also added a prenatal education activity every evening.

Chat with the baby, and have a one-sided chat with the baby's mother.

An Xia was still cold and indifferent to him, but compared to before when she treated him as air, An Xia would also say a few words when he was doing prenatal education for the baby.

Sometimes it was just a few simple words and it was over quickly, without even giving Lu Beichuan a glance.

But even if there were only those few words, Lu Beichuan was quite satisfied.

For him, at least An Xia's attitude has begun to soften, which is a good start.

In addition, Jiang Qingyu also began to bring work into the hospital and hand it over to An Xia.

Something went wrong after she accepted the joint design order from Jin Shang, and she hasn't started drawing yet.

After Qingtian learned about her physical condition, she took the initiative to go to Jinshang to find Chu Nantian and apologize in person. Chu Nantian also expressed his understanding and postponed the submission date by two months.

He has been very busy with work and has not been able to visit An Xia in the hospital in person recently, so he asked Qingtian to convey his greetings.

An Xia didn't want to tell Lu Beichuan about her studio for the time being. In order to keep it secret, she didn't let Qingtian come to the hospital.

If there was any problem at work, An Xia would ask Qingtian to pass it on to Jiang Qingyu, and then ask Jiang Qingyu to send the patient to the hospital.

The days passed one after another.

In a blink of an eye, it was time for the second week check-up.

In the morning, Lu Beichuan accompanied An Xia to complete all the examinations and then went to the company.

Although Xiao Ming can do some work, as the president of Lu Group, Lu Beichuan cannot always be absent.

It just so happened that a foreign partner had arrived in China today, and it would be inappropriate for Lu Beichuan not to be present as a courtesy host.

He also took the opportunity to go to the company today to deal with the work that had been delayed and required his personal attention.

After taking care of An Xia in the hospital for a long time, Lu Beichuan has begun to love the job of a nurse.

I was reluctant to leave.

"Baby, wait for daddy to come back. Daddy will tell you a story in the evening."

Lu Beichuan sat on the edge of An Xia's bed and said goodbye to the child through her belly.

At the same time, he did not forget to report his itinerary to the child's mother.

"After lunch with the NS boss, I rushed back to the company to deal with some of the backlog of projects. I will try to finish them as soon as possible and come back as soon as possible."

The man's hand gently approached An Xia and casually placed his hand on the bed. He didn't feel any resistance from her the moment he touched her, so he became bolder and held her hand directly.

Before An Xia could react and break free, their fingers were tightly intertwined.

"If it's still early, I'll go buy you some Zhenbaozhai pastries. They've recently released some new pastries that you might like."

An Xia turned her head away and said nothing.

But for Lu Beichuan, this was her response to say "I understand."

He curled his lips and smiled: "Wait for me to come back obediently."

Xiao Ming urged at the door, and Lu Beichuan reluctantly let go of his hand and got up to leave.

Just a few minutes after he left, Jiang Qingyu came over with lunch and tonic soup.

"Your Lu Beichuan is really awesome! He treats me like a full-time babysitter!"

Jiang Qingyu just entered the ward and put down the thermal lunch box and started mumbling and complaining.

An Xia only smiled when she saw her.

"what happened?"

"Don't you think he's being too hypocritical? It's the same lunch soup, but my aunt won't make it for you. He has to ask the nutritionist he hired to make it for you. He insisted that I go from my house to Tianzhu Garden and then to the hospital. It's rush hour in the middle of the day, and the traffic is so congested."

Jiang Qingyu complained as he set up a small table for An Xia, opened the insulated lunch boxes that had been brought around Jiang Cheng, and placed them in front of An Xia one by one.

"But to be honest, this man is a bit pretentious, but he is very considerate. I came to your house today and found out that he actually assigned you a team of 20 nutritionists, plus all those kitchen helpers and assistants. There are so many people crowded in Tianzhu Garden. It's terrifying."

An Xia raised her eyebrows slightly, with a hint of surprise on her face.

Apparently this was the first she knew about it.

No wonder, after two weeks of eating nutritious meals, there was no single day that was the same.

"What do you think he means now? Is he really going to reform himself and become a good person? Or is he just pretending to do so on a whim?" Jiang Qingyu asked puzzled.

There's no way. I've met so many men, but none of them is more difficult to guess than Lu Beichuan.

An Xia shrugged: "I don't know."

Jiang Qingyu asked again: "What do you mean now? Do you want to try to develop a relationship with him again? I think if he is truly repentant and has changed, you can still give it a try. I just passed by next door and saw a pile of books on the table about pregnancy knowledge, with some drawings on them, as well as some notebooks and a pile of fairy tale books. It was like someone was preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination."

An Xia was not surprised by this. Lu Beichuan always came over to talk about something every day.

He shared some knowledge about pregnant women that he had just learned. Even though the baby was still eight months away from being born, he was already teaching her the breathing method to relieve the pain and contractions.

After sharing all this, I had nothing more to talk about but was reluctant to leave, so I started telling fairy tales to my baby.

The two thick fairy tale books on her bedside table were the ones that Lu Beichuan had already told his baby.

"I don't know either." An Xia sighed.

After having a serious talk with Lu Beichuan that day and sharing their long-pent-up thoughts, it was completely impossible for An Xia to say that she was not touched at all.

But she couldn't trust him and give him another chance to start over.

After all, all the harm was real.

She couldn't be so heartless as to forget all those bloody wounds and scars.

Jiang Qingyu saw that she looked worried and quickly changed the subject.

"Alright, alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Come eat. Qingtian asked me to bring a lot of work today."
