How many loves can be relived in the story of a devoted CEO pursuing his wife?

Chapter 50: What Awaits Them After the Storm Was Not a Rainbow

In the middle of the night, several bright lights flashed across the sky, which had been suffocating all day, enough to illuminate half of the sky.

Rumble---!

A series of sharp, crackling claps of thunder shook the earth violently, sending chills down people's spines.

The rain poured down in an instant, large raindrops pounding against the glass window. With the pattering sound of the rain, streaks of water were left on the glass.

Outside the window, everything was shrouded in mist and rain, the entire city enveloped in a hazy fog...

Exhausted, Liu Sisi's long, fine eyelashes fluttered as she was startled awake by the thunder.

She half-closed her eyes and instinctively snuggled into Lin Xuedong's arms. Lin Xuedong knew she was awake, and gently brushed a stray hair behind her ear with his finger, saying softly, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

"Hmm, you were woken up too?"

"It's alright." Lin Xuedong turned to hug her. After the passion subsided, their bodies were still naked under the covers.

Liu Sisi hesitated for a moment, feeling a little embarrassed, when she suddenly remembered what he had just said.

Now that they are husband and wife, she feels it's necessary to have a serious talk about whether or not to have children.

He had been very careful and had taken precautions. He was worried that she might not be used to it, so he was giving her a thoughtful form of protection.

But tonight, his performance and reactions were noticeably different from before. The process was filled with deep longing and yearning.

So she looked up at the man in the moonlight, and asked him nervously and expectantly, "Do you really want a child?"

Actually, what she really wanted to ask was whether they should have a child now?

Since the wedding hasn't even taken place yet, it feels like he planned everything.

Like a naive little rabbit, she stumbled step by step into his cage.

Lin Xuedong paused slightly, looking down at the pretty face nestled in his arms. He tapped her full forehead with his finger, his eyes brimming with joy. "Wife, I'm not getting any younger, it's time to be a father. Just bear with it a little. It's not much, let's plan to have two kids, a boy and a girl, okay?"

For some reason, Liu Sisi felt a sweet warmth in her heart after hearing his words. A man and a woman? They could both be as handsome and intelligent as him.

In a daze, she imagined him as a stay-at-home dad, taking care of the baby with everything from poop to pee...

Tsk tsk tsk, wouldn't President Lin's aura be destroyed in one fell swoop?

Thinking of this, Liu Sisi grinned and laughed like a child.

"What's wrong? What are you laughing at?" Lin Xuedong seemed to be infected by her laughter and asked with a smile.

Liu Sisi laughed until tears welled up in her eyes. She tried hard to suppress her surging emotions and started to whine to him. "If we have a child now, it might delay your work. You should think it over carefully."

"Sisi, remember this, nothing is more important than this. I have you, I have me, we have a home, and we have children. Hmm?" He loved her, and he longed to spend the rest of his life with her, sharing a life of mutual support and happiness.

"But I still love my job. If I get pregnant, will you take my job away from me?" She knew she was being a bit dramatic, but reason told her she couldn't lose herself so quickly. So the question was tinged with a hint of probing.

"This is a choice between fish and bear's paw, Sisi. Don't worry or be afraid. I'm here. I will protect you and your child from the wind and rain, and carry this family on my shoulders." He didn't answer directly, but his words made the matter undeniably settled.

Liu Sisi's eyes welled up with tears of relief. She reached out and wrapped her arms around Lin Xuedong's neck, murmuring softly, "Husband, give me a hug."

What followed was Lin Xuedong's tender and affectionate kisses. He gazed at her tenderly, his dark eyes reflecting his unwavering devotion to her in the flashing lightning.

The woman he had admired for so many years was now in his heart; she was showering him with tenderness, and she was willing to bear his children. To have such a wife...

"Sisi, I love you, I love you so much."

The lightning outside the window, like streaks of sword light, ripped through the night sky, mingling with thunder and rain, and still relentlessly ravaged the entire city.

The couple, lost in their tender romance, were unaware that what awaited them after this storm was not a rainbow.

Rather, it was a deeply unforgettable love that faded into the distance, a fleeting moment of beauty, a love that transcended time and space. Reluctant to part, they eventually returned to their own world, carrying a sense of profound loss and regret.

The storm raged throughout the entire weekend, and the outside world was filled with wind and rain.

Their original plans to visit wedding dress and ring shops were also dashed. They had no choice but to stay at home and continue enjoying their time together, warm and content.

"Ringling~."

After breakfast, Liu Sisi's phone rang; it was her mother.

Lin Xuedong finished tidying up the kitchen and came over. When he caught a glimpse of the incoming call out of the corner of his eye, a smirk appeared on his lips. He raised an eyebrow at the woman, giving her a knowing look that said, "Hurry up and answer the phone."

Liu Sisi glared at him, raised her finger in a "shh" gesture, and then pressed the answer button.

"Hey, Mom..." Before Liu Sisi could finish speaking, Zeng Meiyu launched into a rapid-fire barrage of questions at a loud voice.

"Sisi, what's been going on these past two weeks? Why have you been so quiet? I asked how things are going with Xiao Du, and her mom told me you haven't said a word to her. Are you busy with work? When are you able to come home?"

Xiao Du? Who is he?

Lin Xuedong frowned and stared at her, waiting for her to explain.

"Mom, I recently took on a new project, so I'm quite busy. Also, that... I don't think Xiao Du is a good match for him." Liu Sisi had a headache. She blinked her big eyes at Lin Xuedong, her gaze innocent.

"Why is it suddenly inappropriate? Du Zhentao sent you a WeChat message, you should at least give him a reply. All you do is say you're busy, busy, busy, are you trying to drive me crazy?" Liu Sisi frowned, sighed softly, and rubbed her forehead. She had completely forgotten about it. Du Zhentao had sent her a message, but she had completely ignored it because she was rushing to finish the 5G project proposal.

“I’m sorry, I forgot. I’ll find some time to talk to him next week.” She tried to calm her mother’s anger.

Zeng Meiyu had her eye on Du Zhentao; he's reliable and comes from a good family. "What are we talking about? Tell me first what's wrong with him?"

"Mom~. I..." Liu Sisi choked for a moment. Seeing her embarrassed expression, Lin Xuedong nudged her with his elbow, solemnly signaling her to stop trying to fool people.

Liu Sisi looked up at him, sighed deeply, and murmured, "Mom, I'm in a relationship."

"???" Zeng Meiyu on the other end of the phone was stunned at first, and then remained silent for a long time before reacting. "What?! When did this happen? Who is he dating? What kind of person is he? Liu Sisi, let me tell you, you mustn't make a mistake, you'd better come home right now and explain it to me properly!"

Zeng Meiyu's roar was even more deafening than the thunder and rain outside. Liu Sisi wrinkled her eyes and nose and subconsciously pulled the phone.

The next moment, her chin was pinched and gently shaken. She squinted and saw a handsome face in front of her. Lin Xuedong mouthed to her that he would go home with her tonight to meet his mother.

"???" Liu Sisi's eyes widened instantly, her heart tightened, and her expression was blank.

"Hey?! Sisi, are you listening to me?" Zeng Meiyu asked impatiently.

“Mom, I… it’s pouring rain here. I’ll bring him back this afternoon when the rain gets a little lighter, and we can have a simple meal together tonight. Is that alright?” Liu Sisi was caught in the middle, not knowing whether to go or not. She slapped Lin Xuedong’s hand away, looking as if she were going to her execution, and said to her mother on the phone.

Zeng Meiyu was taken aback. "Tonight?"

"Okay, we'll come back together this afternoon and eat out tonight. Don't bother with all that, okay?" Liu Sisi repeated herself.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Xuedong immediately straightened her posture, reached out and gently rubbed her fair cheeks, asking in a sarcastic tone, "Tell me honestly, who is that Xiao Du? What's your relationship, hmm?"

Liu Sisi raised her hands and grabbed his wrists, trying to stop him. Staring at him, her mouth pursed into a little pig's snout, she tried to mutter, "Stop rubbing! You'll get wrinkles! Speak properly."

Lin Xuedong stopped what he was doing, and instead cupped her face in his palm, squeezing out a sound through his teeth. "Say it quickly~".

"He was a blind date arranged by my mother, and we didn't really have any interaction. We just had one meal together on the day of the blind date."

"Then what?"

"That's it. Oh, and my mom and his parents were also there for that meal." Liu Sisi's dark eyes darted around in their sockets, afraid that the man might misunderstand something.

"Didn't you just say you'd find some time to talk to him? Does this mean there's more to the story, huh?" Lin Xuedong narrowed his eyes unhappily.

Liu Sisi felt wronged, and she looked at Lin Xuedong with a pitiful expression. "There was no follow-up. I just wanted to politely and formally refuse them. Please don't make wild guesses, okay?"

It's fine to refuse, but the problem is that he's really unhappy about having to meet them!

Lin Xuedong is a clear hypocrite; he's forgotten about his relationship with Zeng Ziyan. He's still maintaining his current demeanor, neither arrogant nor outspoken.

"Ah Dong?" Liu Sisi asked softly, speaking the truth. Why was he throwing a tantrum?

Lin Xuedong let go of her hand and stood up, pretending to ignore her. "Stop yelling, it's annoying."

Oh! He's really angry? Is it really that big of a deal?

Liu Sisi irritably smoothed her hair and stood up as well.

She didn't know how to coax a man, so she held her breath, grabbed his wrist, and shook it back and forth, trying to keep her voice down. "I'm telling the truth. My parents were there, so it wasn't appropriate to say anything openly. That's why I thought I'd wait until I had time to meet him and talk things out clearly. But then things got busy, and I forgot about him. You know, these things can't be left ambiguous; you have to see them through to the end, right?"

Lin Xuedong turned around and looked down at her. He didn't know why, but hearing that she was going to meet another boy alone made him very unhappy.

He secretly despised himself, wondering how he had suddenly become so petty.

After a moment of silence, he took a deep breath and said to her, as if to show restraint, "This won't happen again, okay?"

"Mmm~." Liu Sisi breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in agreement.

She was genuinely panicked. Why was she panicking? She realized she was caring about him more and more.
