Daily life of working as a substitute bride for a wealthy family

On a sunny morning, Sheng Yang found his wife still huddled tightly in his arms.

I finally feel like my heart is at peace.

Did she finally develop an attachment to him?

A gentle kiss fell on Xiang Ran's forehead, and Sheng Yang tiptoed out of the room.

Although I only slept for a few hours, I felt full of energy.

The autumn air is so clear and crisp that even the sky seems to be extra blue...

-

Xiang Ran got up late, around noon.

My stomach is growling with hunger.

Thinking of everything that happened last night, she was stunned for a moment.

I finally accepted the reality that I was going to be a mother.

For some things, once you accept them, you will no longer resist them and will have internal motivation.

Xiang Ran doesn't really like egg yolks.

But she also ate half of the yolks of two boiled eggs for lunch.

It’s just that my nose is a little stuffy after all the trouble last night.

But he didn't dare to take any medicine randomly, so he just lay in bed and rested.

I received a call from Su Yue just after I fell asleep.

"Miss Xiang, I need your help with something. Could you please ask President Sheng and President Song Nan to delete the surveillance video of my young lady from the Xincheng branch of the Xiangrui Liya Hotel?"

"Ah? Is something wrong?"

"My daughter scratched someone yesterday after she drugged him with alcohol. We paid for him to be calmed down temporarily and even found a doctor to give him some cosmetic stitches. There shouldn't be any major problems later. But to be on the safe side, I want to delete the surveillance video of the daughter at the restaurant."

Xiang Ran was confused: "How should I tell Sheng Yang?"

"It's hard to explain in a few words. Just call and tell him I'm asking for his help with my niece's matter. I'll tell President Sheng the details. And don't worry. Even if President Song personally checks the video, he won't suspect it's you. My daughter was wearing big sunglasses when she went out that day."

"Okay then. But there's something I need to tell you. Sheng Yang wants to get a marriage certificate before I give birth... Is Miss Su willing to get the certificate? Do you want to do some work?"

"After what happened yesterday, our young lady has calmed down. She should agree to get the marriage certificate with Mr. Sheng later. Don't worry."

-

Xiang Ran called Sheng Yang and said that Butler Su wanted to ask him for help with something.

Sheng Yang was surprised.

"Do you know what it is?"

"It was his niece who accidentally scratched someone. Now she's been compensated and the man has been appeased. But she's worried the man will change his mind, so she wants to delete the hotel surveillance footage. That hotel belongs to Mr. Song, and he probably wants you to go and say hello."

Sheng Yang said on the phone: "I've always been reluctant to get involved in matters like this, but since my wife has asked, I should go and say hello to Song Nan. It should be fine."

Xiang Ran breathed a sigh of relief: "Then I'll let Butler Su call and talk to you himself, okay?"

"No problem, but call back in twenty minutes. I'm... in a meeting."

"Oh, you're in a meeting? Then I'm hanging up."

"Wait, honey, why do you sound stuffy? Are you catching a cold?"

"Oh, I don't think I have a cold. You should go to the meeting quickly."

Xiang Ran hung up the phone and sniffed.

Clear runny nose.

It seems like I really have a cold.

I slept too late last night, so I had to wrap myself up in the quilt and sleep, sweating all over...

-

Xiang Ran slept until almost dinner time.

Sure enough, I started sweating and felt much better.

When I got dressed and went downstairs, I heard that there seemed to be guests on the first floor.

When she went downstairs, she saw that the person sitting on the sofa was Professor Zhao.

Sheng Yang invited Professor Zhao to his home?

"Wife, come and let Professor Zhao take your pulse. Is your nasal congestion better?" Sheng Yang pulled her to sit down.

Xiang Ran: “…”

Professor Zhao took her pulse and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Mr. Sheng. Madam has a bit of a cold and seems to be sweating. Don't take any Western medicine. Cook some scallion and ginger soup for her tonight."

Sheng Yang also smiled and said, "Wife, did you hear that?"

Xiang Ran: "I see. You're so long-winded. Professor Zhao is right in front of me, how could I not understand?"

Professor Zhao laughed heartily. "Mrs. Sheng has always been interested in Traditional Chinese Medicine. I'll come up with a few prescriptions for pregnant women based on different cold symptoms. I'll note the dosage for you to study. But honestly, common colds are self-limiting. Proper rest and medication aren't necessary."

When leaving, Professor Zhao asked Xiang Ran to stay: "Mr. Sheng, just send me out. I have to rush to the Sheng residence soon."

Sheng Yang: "I've arranged a car and asked Xiao Chen to take Professor Zhao. You can stay in the room."

-

After Sheng Yang sent Professor Zhao back, he asked Xiang Ran, "Did Professor Zhao go to the Sheng residence to check your grandfather's pulse?"

"No, he went to treat my uncle. He was supposed to go to Sheng's house first, but I was afraid that my uncle might get angry and make you, a pregnant woman, angry, so I asked the professor to come and take your pulse first."

"Sheng Yang—are you too nervous?"

"Yeah, I was scared by you before." He hugged her, "I said I would learn how to be a good father."

From Sheng Yang's perspective, his wife lowered her head slightly, and her neck was as white and shiny as solidified fat.

He couldn't help but kiss her: "Wife, why do I feel that your skin is better after you get pregnant?"

Xiang Ran felt numb from his kiss and turned around to ask, "By the way, did Butler Su come to see you later?"

"Well, Song Nan called me back. He said that Housekeeper Su's niece and her ex-boyfriend had an argument in the hotel and she slashed the man's face with scissors. But the matter has been settled, and some videos that were unfavorable to his niece's health have also been deleted. You're pregnant, don't worry about these insignificant people."

But remembering Song Nan's mention of Housekeeper Su's niece secretly drugging him in the restaurant, he specifically warned her, "Don't get involved with women like that in the future, understand?"

"Oh, I know."

Sheng Yang patted her head and said, "Unlike my wife, you are always so open and aboveboard. You would 'fight' with me in bed if we disagreed, and you would just shrug when you were angry. You never do anything behind my back."

Xiang Ran shrank his neck and smiled bitterly: "Am I such a person?"

"Yeah." Sheng Yang blinked, "Let's go have dinner. I'll read poetry to the baby tonight..."

-

Sheng Yang does what he says.

From then on, as long as he came home not too late, he would read poems to the baby in his belly before going to bed.

Xiang Ran didn’t know whether the baby could hear her or not, because he usually coaxed her to sleep first.

This can’t be blamed on Xiang Ran.

It's really that Sheng Yang wants his son to become successful.

Every night he reads poetry in Mandarin, Wu dialect, English, German, and Cantonese in turn.

One day, he didn't take his cell phone, let Xiang Ran lie on his lap, and started reciting poems.

“Du bist mein ,ich bin dein (Your body belongs only to me, and my body also belongs only to you)

Dessen sollst du gewiss sein (You should understand my deep affection)”

Xiang Ran interrupted him: "Is this a German poem?"

"Yes. Did you hear that?"

Xiang Ran's second foreign language is Japanese, so of course she couldn't understand it.

She asked, "No, what do you mean by these two mumblings?"

"It probably means study hard and make progress every day!" Sheng Yang lied to her.

Xiang Ran shook her head. "Foreign languages ​​are so complex. Our Chinese is so concise! But is it time to instill a learning consciousness in children so early?"

Sheng Yang made a "hush" sound and continued to recite...

“Du bist verschlossen in meinem Herzen (I want to lock you in my heart)

I lost my key (I lost my key)

du musst fur immer drinnen sein (In this way, you will remain in my heart forever).......

-

Not long after, Sheng Yang heard his wife's gentle breathing.

Her fair and clean face, with a velvety texture like a peach on a June branch, makes people fall in love...
