Chapter 4 I’m pregnant, but the child is not yours!
Zhu Guihua also looked up and saw Gu Jingming. She was stunned for a moment. “When did your cousin’s son become so handsome? I should have agreed to your marriage back then…” Zhu Guihua was still muttering to herself. Ye Qingtao couldn’t stand it anymore. “Mom, don’t you just look at his appearance? Don’t you think this man looks familiar?” At her daughter’s reminder, Zhu Guihua stared at Gu Jingming again and again, then suddenly exclaimed. “Isn’t this the man you saved this morning? It turned out to be your cousin!
You two are so destined!” Although the two families had occasional contact, they were distant relatives and rarely saw each other. Zhu Guihua had only seen him a few times when he was a child, so it was normal that she couldn’t recognize him now. Ye Qingtao doubted her mother’s statement. The food was served on the table. There were ten dishes and one soup, all of them were hard dishes. Ye Qingtao had been recuperating at home for a while, eating simple meals every day. Her mouth had long been tasteless. Now, looking at this table of food, she was particularly satisfied. She was about to eat heartily when the bride was brought to the stage, crying and being held down. The bride was wearing a bright red wedding dress, and her makeup was completely ruined by tears. From a distance, her figure was okay, but it was impossible to tell what she looked like.
Zhu Guihua ate the pork belly while muttering to herself. “The groom is so handsome, why is the bride crying so miserably?” As soon as Zhu Guihua spoke, the auntie next to her, perhaps because she had been holding back for a long time, couldn’t help but show off her presence. “I heard that the groom was injured while on a mission…
He’s not going to be able to have children anymore!” Ye Qingtao thought to herself, what a pity, he’s so handsome, but he’s a useless person. However, she had just taken his pulse, and besides some external injuries, his body was still quite strong. As long as he recuperated well, there shouldn’t be any sequelae. “What’s going on?” Suddenly getting a big piece of gossip, Zhu Guihua’s eyes sparkled with gossip. The two aunties saw that they had found a kindred spirit and quickly pulled her aside. They saw them whispering and talking non-stop, completely ignoring her presence.
Ye Qingtao sighed softly and ate her food by herself. Because of her, her mother had been the subject of gossip in the courtyard. Now that she had come to the provincial capital, she finally got to eat other people’s gossip, and she was naturally enjoying it. The noise on the stage became more and more intense, and the wedding turned into a farce. The bride was pushed onto the stage, her parents holding her down and forcing her to go through with the wedding.
“Gu Jingming is so excellent, it’s your blessing to marry him!” “Don’t think about anything else, just marry him and live a peaceful life!” “Gu Jingming is the youngest leader in the army, the bravest officer. You won’t be poor if you marry him!” The bride’s parents took turns persuading her, and the bride cried her heart out. “I won’t marry! I won’t marry! No matter how good Gu Jingming is, he’s still a useless person!” “I’m so young and beautiful, am I going to ruin my life like this?” “Are you really my parents? Why are you forcing me to marry him?” The bride argued fiercely with her parents, and Gu Jingming remained silent with a cold face. Even the emcee stood awkwardly aside, the bride’s father kept gesturing to him to continue the wedding.
Gu Jingming’s face was so gloomy that it could drip water. This was the woman his grandmother forced him to marry with her life? Because the situation was too complicated today, the emcee didn’t dare to say a word, he skipped all the previous words and finally asked one question. “Ma Yuting, are you willing to marry Gu Jingming?” Ma Yuting was about to say no, but her mother covered her mouth and her father pressed her head, forcing her to nod. “I, don’t… want to…” Ma Yuting’s voice was broken, and finally turned into “I do.” When it was Gu Jingming’s turn, the emcee asked again, “Mr. Gu Jingming, are you willing to take Ms. Ma Yuting as your wife?” Before Gu Jingming could speak, Ma Yuting shook her head tearfully. Her parents held her down tightly, Ma Yuting broke free from her parents’ grip, she shouted to the crowd.
“I’m pregnant, the child isn’t yours!” As soon as these words came out, the scene immediately became a frenzy. With such explosive news at the wedding, how could anyone not be curious? Ma Yuting’s parents were so frightened that they collapsed to the ground. Ma Yuting took advantage of the chaos and rushed off the stage, escaping into the crowd.
Gu Jingming also wanted to cancel the wedding immediately, but thinking of his grandmother who was lying in bed waiting for him to get married, he felt a headache. His grandmother always said that her time was running out, and her only wish before she died was to see him get married. He also knew his own situation, and he guessed that normal girls wouldn’t want to marry him. Now that Ma Yuting had escaped, she had lost face for both families on the day of the wedding, this marriage was definitely not going to happen. He had indeed had some problems with his body when he was on a mission years ago. If it wasn’t to fulfill his grandmother’s wish, he wouldn’t be here today. Now that things had turned out like this, there was no way to salvage the situation.
Gu Jingming rubbed his temples in pain, preparing to cancel the wedding in public. “Today’s wedding…” Gu Jingming’s voice was very loud, echoing throughout the entire restaurant. Ye Qingtao had just eaten a piece of cake and felt her mouth was a little dry. She stood up and reached for the teapot on the opposite side, naturally pouring herself a cup of tea. Everyone in the restaurant looked at her, including Gu Jingming. Ye Qingtao was embarrassed by everyone’s gaze, she looked up in confusion, she had been eating too seriously and didn’t know what had happened. When Gu Jingming saw her, his dim eyes suddenly brightened. He recognized Ye Qingtao, the girl who was eating happily, wasn’t she the one who gave him a shot in the butt this morning?
Gu Jingming slowly walked towards her from the stage, Ye Qingtao stood there, not knowing whether to sit or stand. Until Gu Jingming walked in front of her, he reached out his hand to her. “Beautiful girl, will you marry me?” Gu Jingming knelt down on one knee, Ye Qingtao was surprised and couldn’t react. Before she transmigrated, she was an unmarried woman of a certain age. In this life, she was either doing surgery or developing new drugs. She thought that dating was a waste of time, love was too brain-burning, and she shouldn’t waste her prime years on it.
She had done so many surgeries for people, and she also knew how painful it was to give birth, so she instinctively avoided it. The man in front of her was tall and handsome, his face was angular and sharp, he was indeed very attractive.
If she stayed at home, she would be forced to marry by her parents. If she had to choose to marry in this life, he was a good choice. “As long as you’re willing to marry me, I’ll give you all my salary after we get married, I’ll do the housework, and I’ll take care of the children, what do you think?” Before Ye Qingtao could respond, the crowd was already in an uproar. “Agree to him!” “Agree to him!” “Marry him!”
