After a blind date, a wealthy heir asked me to marry him.

Fu Cheng finished chewing the steamed dumpling in his mouth, stood up and said to his wife, "Get some rest."

Then, he turned and walked into the room.

"Aren't you going to eat the steamed dumplings?"

Fu Cheng didn't respond and went straight into the room.

Lu Shiyi glanced at her husband, then looked back at the food on the table. "Alright, if you're not going to eat it, then I'll eat it. We can't waste food."

She moved to Fu Cheng's previous seat, ate snacks, and watched TV.

She found her husband a little strange, but she was used to it, so she didn't think much of it.

After finishing her meal, she lay on the balcony for a while to digest her food, and then went to sleep.

The next day, as usual, Lu Shiyi went to the study hall after breakfast.

She was having lunch with her best friend and Yao Yao in the afternoon, so she asked a member she often worked with to look after them while she was away.

The rest of the morning was mostly quiet, with few people coming to inquire.

Around noon, Lu Shiyi was about to heat up his food when someone came in through the door.

She quickly put down her lunchbox and greeted him warmly, "Hello..."

The next second, the person froze on the spot, "Mr. Fu? What brings you here?"

Since their marriage, her husband had never been to her study room before; this was the first time.

Fu Cheng looked up and met his wife's wide, round eyes, and for a moment he found her rather adorable.

He strode up to Lu Shiyi and said softly, "Why are you so surprised?"

Lu Shiyi was indeed very surprised. She never thought that her husband would take the initiative to come to her workplace, and he hadn't even told her in advance.

After regaining her composure, she asked, "Is something the matter?"

Fu Cheng looked around the study hall. Hearing his grandfather say that Lu Shiyi had run the entire study hall all by herself, he couldn't help but feel a little admiration for his wife.

It's really not easy for a girl to run a study room all by herself.

Fu Cheng withdrew his gaze and looked at Lu Shiyi, "It's nothing, I was just passing by and thought I'd drop by."

He had a dinner party with a client in this area today. After dinner, he remembered that his wife's study room seemed to be nearby, and he had never been there before, so he came over to take a look.

"Oh, then you sit down first, I'll go heat up some food."

Lu Shiyi turned around and hadn't taken two steps when she turned back and asked, "Have you eaten? If not, I'll order you some."

The portion she's heating up now is only enough for her to eat alone.

Fu Cheng: "I've eaten, you don't need to worry about me."

He came over intending to stay for a while and then leave, as he had an important meeting in the afternoon.

Lu Shiyi returned after heating up the food and sat down opposite Fu Cheng. "Since you've already eaten, I won't stand on ceremony."

As he spoke, he picked up his chopsticks and began to eat heartily.

Fu Cheng watched silently from across the table, not uttering a word, but thinking to himself, "Even if you're being polite, what can you do? Feed me a couple of bites?"

However, he was startled by his own thoughts in an instant; they were so inappropriate...

Lu Shiyi ate for a while and saw that her husband was sitting quietly across from her, not eating or talking, which made her look rather pitiful.

Since he came specifically to see me, it wouldn't be very friendly to do so, so I thought I'd chat with him to relieve my boredom.

As soon as she opened her mouth, her husband interrupted her, saying, "Focus on your food and don't talk."

He had long seen through his wife's intentions; he didn't need her to make small talk.

Lu Shiyi: "..."

She had just lowered her head to continue eating when her phone rang.

Lu Shiyi glanced at the caller ID; it was Yao Yao calling. She looked up at her husband and said, "You can answer the phone, right?"

After saying that, she pressed the answer button without waiting for Fu Cheng's response.

"Hey, Yao Yao"

Lu Shiyi was answering a call with one hand while still putting food into her mouth with the other.

"Yaoyao??"

Suddenly, she raised her voice and slammed her chopsticks down on the table.

"Yaoyao, don't cry, tell me slowly."

On the other end of the phone, Lu Shuyao was crouching at the toilet door, clutching her stomach.

With a sob in her voice, she said, "Sister, I accidentally fell and it seems my water broke. My in-laws went out this morning and haven't come back yet. No one is answering their phones, and no one is answering Hao Kai's phone either. I'm so scared. I feel like I'm about to give birth."

When Lu Shiyi heard that no one was home, he immediately became anxious.

But she still comforted her younger sister, "Yaoyao, don't worry, just wait at home and try to stay in bed and not move around. I'll take care of the rest."

After saying that, Lu Shiyi hung up the phone first.

Before her husband could ask, she said, "Yaoyao's water broke, and she'll probably give birth soon. She's all alone at home right now, so I have to get there quickly."

As he spoke, he didn't even bother to eat anymore, and rushed towards the door with his phone in hand.

Fu Cheng, sitting opposite her, stood up, grabbed her wrist, and said in a steady tone, "It's too far and takes too much time. You should call 120 for an ambulance first, and we'll go straight to the hospital."

After hearing this, Lu Shiyi realized that calling an ambulance was the fastest and safest option. He had been too anxious and hadn't thought of that.

"Okay, I'll call 120 right now."

As she spoke, she immediately dialed 120.

At the same time, Fu Cheng went out and drove the car directly to the entrance of the study hall.

He specifically changed into a Buick minivan when he came over.

After Lu Shiyi finished making the call, she saw that her husband was already waiting in the car.

She was about to get into the car when she suddenly remembered that her husband had to go to work in the afternoon. "You still have to go to work. I can take a taxi by myself."

Fu Cheng commanded in a low voice, "Get in the car first."

Upon hearing this, Lu Shiyi quickly and obediently got into the car.

Which hospital?

While fastening his seatbelt, Lu Shi answered, "Nanshi First Hospital."

This is the hospital near my sister's house. It's about a ten-minute drive to her house.

Fu Cheng set up the navigation and set off immediately.

On the way, Lu Shiyi called his sister back to tell her to keep an eye on the doorbell, as the ambulance would be there soon.

Then I called my brother-in-law Li Haokai, but no one answered.

At this moment, Li Haokai was in a meeting with an important client. He had seen the call when his wife, Lu Shuyao, called earlier, but he didn't answer. He thought that his parents were at home, so what could be so important, even though his wife had called three times in a row.

He considered this client extremely important, as it directly impacted the success of his upcoming major project. Therefore, when he saw his wife repeatedly calling, he became furious. Who was he working so hard for? Didn't she understand why he wouldn't answer her calls? She was so inconsiderate.

Immediately, he stuffed his phone, which was already on silent, into his pocket.

So when Lu Shiyi called, he didn't see it at all.

When her brother-in-law didn't answer the phone, Lu Shiyi then called her sister's parents-in-law, but without exception, no one answered.

She angrily put away her phone and stood with her arms crossed for a while to calm herself down.

After a while, Lu Shiyi turned to her husband, who had been focused on driving and hadn't said a word, and asked, "Are you sure it's okay if I'm late for work?"

Fu Cheng said calmly, "Missing one day of work won't kill anyone."

In his mind since childhood, family has always been the most important thing...
