Depressed wife runs with the ball

Aunt Tian only saw the baby who had begun to take human form, and later, she never accompanied the baby to the prenatal checkup again.

Zhou Kecheng went to Zhou Xingzhi to discuss the equity issue, probably because he wanted to give his equity to Zhou Jihuai, so that Zhou Jihuai would become the largest shareholder.

Zhou Xingzhi recounted to him the mistakes Zhou Jihuai had made over the years, and selling the shares to him would be pushing Xinghui into the abyss.

Zhou Kecheng put forward a condition that the equity could be discussed separately, but the condition was that Zhou Xingzhi could not marry Chu Yue.

At first, he did not agree and even quarreled with the old man about this matter many times.

The old man felt that he was doing this for the Zhou family's own good, and for his own good. How outrageous would it be to marry someone whose mother was in prison? Even if he did marry her, people would still talk about this behind his back.

Most members of the board of directors would not agree with him marrying Chu Yue.

Mo Xiaoxiao had just found out after talking to Chu Yue about it. She got up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom and saw Zhou Xingzhi sitting in the study, looking tired.

She said, "Since it's difficult, let's separate."

The voice was clear, and every word rang out in Zhou Xingzhi's ears. He looked up in confusion, thinking she was talking in her sleep. He stood up, forced a smile, climbed onto her shoulders, held her hand, and asked, "Did I disturb you? Or can't you sleep? I'll stay with you."

"Zhou Xingzhi, let's break up. I don't love you anymore." Chu Yue repeated again, she was very calm.

Zhou Xingzhi's mouth twitched, then he smiled, thinking she was a little dazed and hadn't woken up yet. "Yueyue, we have a baby, a family of three, what nonsense are you talking about?"

"I'm not talking nonsense. I've thought about this matter very clearly." Chu Yue sat down on the chair he usually sat on and discussed it with him calmly.

"I went to see my teacher and asked her why I often felt suffocated in this relationship. Does getting married and having children mean that I have to give up everything I learned and take care of my husband and children? She said that good love should complement each other and should not control. I don't love you, please let me go." She looked up at him, tears in her eyes.

Zhou Xingzhi sighed deeply, unwilling to continue this topic with her. He turned on the computer and advised, "Go to sleep, baby, you must be sleepy."

Since then, he seldom came back. Even when he did, he would park his car downstairs and rest with his eyes closed, looking out the window of his room on the second floor.

On the day Chu Yue decided to leave, her aunt went out to buy groceries as usual. She took off the ring and took nothing with her except her underwear.

She called a car in advance to go to the high-speed rail station. This time, she wanted freedom! Escaping with a pregnant belly was something an art student would do.

When the aunt came back and didn't see anyone, she was so anxious that she called several times, but no one answered, so she could only tell Zhou Xingzhi about it.

As soon as Chu Yue got off the high-speed train station, Jiang Tao, who had arrived by plane, sent her back. He could even stroll around the platform, waiting for her to get off and find another high-speed train in business class.

"Ms. Chu, Mr. Zhou has been very busy recently. Please don't cause him any more trouble." After Secretary Jiang settled the person, he sent a message to Zhou Xingzhi saying that he had found the person and he was safe.

Chu Yue thought that if she took the high-speed train, at least she wouldn't be caught. But when she got off the train and saw Secretary Jiang, she felt like the sky was falling. If she arrested him, wouldn't he be under even stricter scrutiny?

After thinking for a long time, she tried to persuade Secretary Jiang to rebel. She asked, "Secretary Jiang, am I a prisoner? Why do I have to stay at home? Every day I'm either waiting for dinner or waiting for him to come home?"

Secretary Jiang remained silent. The boss had his reasons for making such an arrangement. Besides, this was the boss's family's private matter.

Secretary Jiang spent more time with Zhou Xingzhi than she did with him. Instead of trying to turn him over, it would be better to just lie to him. It was inexplicable, and I just spent the whole day on the high-speed train.

Back at the villa, it was already evening, and Auntie had prepared dinner. Zhou Xingzhi sat on the sofa, his face gloomy and tired, his suit jacket unbuttoned. Chu Yue passed him by, not wanting to eat, and instead left her suitcase outside the door, heading straight upstairs.

"Stop." The voice was calm, like the peaceful white clouds before the storm. "I'm tired and want to rest." Chu Yue still stepped onto the stairs willfully. Aunt Tian saw that the atmosphere was not right and advised: "Miss Chu, eat a few bites at least. Even if you are not hungry, the baby in your belly is hungry too."

"I have no appetite." She still wanted to go back to her room to rest.

"Sit down and eat." Zhou Xingzhi stood up, his voice filled with irresistible majesty.

Chu Yue had already stepped onto five or six steps, but still refused to compromise, protesting silently step by step.

Zhou Xingzhi had been feeling depressed for a long time, and finally exploded at this moment. He stepped forward and pulled her down the stairs. Chu Yue staggered and fell to the ground.

"What exactly do you want me to do to satisfy you? Have I spoiled you too much, making you more willful?" He frowned, his lips trembling slightly, trying hard to suppress the pressure he had been under for the past two months.

Chu Yue covered her belly, feeling wet underneath. Aunt Tian hurried over to support her, saying timidly, "Mr. Zhou, Miss Chu is still pregnant."

Zhou Xingzhi was helpless. He stared at Chu Yue for a long time, then let go of his fatigue. He said slowly, "Eat a few bites at least."

Chu Yue felt something was wrong, and there was a pain in her lower abdomen. She grabbed Aunt Tian's sleeve and said nervously, "It seems like I'm bleeding."

"What?!" Hearing this, the aunt became alert and said to Zhou Xingzhi, "Mr. Zhou, we need to take him to the hospital."

Zhou Xingzhi was also frightened and annoyed. He half-knelt down to pick up Chu Yue, asked his aunt to get the car keys to open the door, and without even changing his shoes, he put her in the back seat of the car and drove to the hospital.

When the doctor examined her, Chu Yue looked frightened and even didn't want Zhou Xingzhi to touch her. She was so emotional that the doctor had to ask her to wait outside.

After he left, Chu Yue begged the doctor, saying that Zhou Xingzhi was not her husband, and that as long as she told him that the child had been aborted, she would be free.

The doctor knew Zhou Xingzhi and couldn't believe he would do such a thing, but she also knew that the two were not married. She asked the nurse to leave and helped Chu Yue to the bed to rest.

"Ms. Chu, you're probably experiencing prenatal anxiety. Don't be nervous. Pregnant women will experience a small amount of bleeding. Mr. Zhou, as the child's father, accompanied you for the prenatal checkup last time, didn't he?"

Chu Yue sneered. If accompanying someone to the prenatal checkup meant he could be a good father, then what about the morning sickness, sleepiness, and embarrassment he experienced during the checkup?

"You should have a good rest and take care of your baby in the hospital." The doctor put an oxygen tube on her. Chu Yue turned sideways, unwilling to see anyone.

When Zhou Xingzhi pushed the door open, she pretended to be asleep. He tucked her in and sat by her side all night, watching over her until her aunt came to bring her breakfast in the morning before she went to the company. Seeing Chu Yue's low mood, her aunt advised, "No matter how much you quarrel, you can't take it out on the children."

After Chu Yue became pregnant, her mood became unpredictable and her mind became sensitive. This sentence sounded like she was taking her anger out on the child, but it was clearly Zhou Xingzhi who pulled her down the stairs.

He put down the spoon for porridge, lay down dejectedly, and uttered three words in a depressed tone: "I'm full."

"Why did you only eat so little? You didn't eat last night. You must have a good nutritious breakfast." Aunt Tian took a look and saw that you only ate an egg and drank a few mouthfuls of white porridge. The milk and fried dumplings remained untouched.
