Chapter 1519: Chapter 1524: I Am on Top 10
“Alright, I’ll prepare everything by noon then.” Lin Yin replied with a smile.
“Hmm, have you eaten yet?”
After chatting with her mom for a while, she hung up. Gu Qingxin looked at her phone, she hadn’t been home much recently and she felt like she owed her mother a lot.
She decided she would give her mother a present on her own birthday.
Having decided that, Gu Qingxin rose from her seat and went back to the restaurant.
“Your mom’s call?” Beiming Han placed some food on her plate.
“Yeah.” Gu Qingxin uttered in agreement.
“What did she want?” Beiming Han was still on alert concerning Lin Yin. Although the hypnosis was working, Bai Jingqing had said that it wouldn’t last.
“It’s nothing, just that she wants me to come home for lunch on Saturday. I agreed.” Gu Qingxin replied vaguely.
Beiming Han nodded but didn’t say anything more. Gu Qingxin kept stealing glances at him. Could it be that he really didn’t remember her birthday? Suddenly, she felt a pang of disappointment.
She lowered her head, almost burying her face in the plate.
“Are you comparing your face to the size of the plate?”
Gu Qingxin,”…”
…
Saturday came in the blink of an eye. Gu Qingxin’s shoulder injury had mostly healed. What was troubling her now was her slightly protruding belly. The weather was getting hot and she couldn’t wear too many layers. In the end, she decided to try on a loose-fitting tracksuit.
It worked; the bulge wasn’t obvious.
Beiming Han, fresh out of the shower, walked over and wrapped his arms around her, “Going home today?”
“Yes. Come with me.” Gu Qingxin turned and replied.
“I… I don’t have time this morning or at noon.”
“…”
So, he really doesn’t know it’s her birthday.
The disappointment in Gu Qingxin’s heart continued to grow.
She forced a smile onto her face and said, “You go ahead and attend to your affairs.”
“You’re upset.” Beiming Han turned her around, his brows slightly furrowed.
“Not at all, work is important.”
“I haven’t worked for you for quite some time now. Today, I thought it would be my turn.” Saying this, Beiming Han lifted her in his arms and out of the cloakroom.
“Didn’t we do it just yesterday?” Gu Qingxin looked baffled.
“Yesterday was you serving me, today I’ll serve you, my queen!” Beiming Han’s lips curled into a smirk, gently laying her onto the bed.
After all, she was pregnant. He didn’t dare to be rough with her, lest he hurt her.
Beiming Han’s lips trailed lightly from her forehead down, showering her with little kisses.
When Gu Qingxin was soon undressed, Beiming Han’s gaze fell on her slightly bulging belly. The protrusion disrupted the elegance of her body shape.
He forced himself to look away, pulled off his own bath towel, and made slow, tender love to her.
Gu Qingxin had never underestimated Beiming Han’s prowess. By the time they finished, the wall clock pointed to ten. Beiming Han left first. Gu Qingxin got dressed alone, her disappointment in her heart continuing to grow.
Gu Qingxin started to regret. Should she have told Beiming Han about her birthday?
Forget it, she had already prepared a gift for him. It doesn’t matter who gifts whom, it’s the thought that counts.
Gu Qingxin made up her mind to not let herself be unhappy. After all, it was her birthday today.
Today she had asked Bai Qianqian to accompany her home. Bai Qianqian also wanted to spend more time with her because her university admission had been finalized.
Only her mom knew she was going to study abroad.
Bai Qianqian planned to tell Gu Qingxin before she left. So she wanted to spend as much time with her as possible right now.
