Chapter 138 Becoming a Father
It was already merciful of her not to get rid of Gu Huan herself!
She would not continue to support an ungrateful person.
Su Yuan stood up and pursed her lips. How boring! She had only said a few words when Gu Zhiquan fainted.
He is a grown man, but his ability to withstand pressure is not as strong as Zhou's.
After teasing Gu Zhiquan, Su Yuan was in a good mood and turned back to her yard.
At night, she was thinking about how to talk about this matter with Gu Yu and Cheng Lang. How should she bring it up?
She's not a shy person, but...
This matter is indeed a bit embarrassing.
Just when Su Yuan was tossing and turning in bed, Cheng Lang came.
It was the first time that Cheng Lang came late at night. Su Yuan was slightly stunned to see Cheng Lang looking exhausted but with a happy look on his face.
Did Cheng Lang... pick up gold?
"Brother? You... do you have any good news?"
Cheng Lang's eyes fell on Su Yuan's belly.
Su Yuan: ...
Cheng Lang knows?
How did he know?
Does the Marquis of Zhennan’s Mansion have Cheng Lang’s spies?
Or is there a secret guard monitoring her?
"Brother sent secret guards to monitor me?" Su Yuan said with an unhappy look on his face.
Cheng Lang walked over and sat next to Su Yuan. "It's not surveillance, but protection."
He did send two secret guards to take turns protecting Su Yuan. It wasn't that he didn't trust Qingying, but Qingying was the secret guard he gave to Su Yuan. Occasionally, Su Yuan would send Qingying out to do things. Su Yuan also gave Shao Qing to Gu Yu. How could he feel at ease when there was no one to protect her?
The secret guards would not tell him ordinary news, but if there was something important, they would still come to report to him.
The secret guard relayed everything Su Yuan said to Gu Zhiquan today.
Su Yuan and Gu Zhiquan have never slept together, so this child can only be his.
He's going to be a father!
He didn't have much interest in children at first, but if the child was his and Su Yuan's, he was still full of expectations.
Su Yuan pouted, "I wanted to give you a surprise, but now... you know everything."
Cheng Liang held her hand and said, "I want to hear it from you in person."
He heard the news from someone else, so how could it be more meaningful if Su Yuan told him in person?
Su Yuan pursed her lips. She felt a little awkward, but she still spoke, "Brother! You're going to be a father!"
"You can call me Su Yan from now on. Su Yan is the name my teacher gave me. Did you know that?" Cheng Lang asked.
Su Yuan: ...
She really didn't know!
Cheng Lang is also a cannon fodder in the book, so the author naturally won't spend much time introducing him.
The original body had always looked down on Cheng Lang and had never paid any attention to him, so she naturally didn't know.
Su Yuan shook her head honestly, "I... don't know."
Cheng Lang didn't feel disappointed at all. "You'll know later. You..."
Cheng Lang hesitated to speak, and Su Yuan understood, "Speak silently!"
After she finished speaking, her face became hot unconsciously. You could tell without even looking that her face must have been extremely red.
So... embarrassing!
Looking at Su Yuan's visibly red face, Cheng Lang also felt uncomfortable.
The first time he stayed over wasn't as awkward as it is now.
Cheng Lang looked away, his ears completely red.
Seeing Cheng Lang's shy face, Su Yuan's heartbeat suddenly calmed down a little.
It can be seen that neither of them is an expert in love!
Seeing Cheng Lang so uncomfortable, Su Yuan's heart leaped with joy. She called out again, "Su Yan! Su Yan!"
You’ll get used to it after calling it a few times!
"Okay! Stop...stop shouting." Cheng Lang held her in his arms and told her to stop shouting.
Originally, he wanted Su Yuan to call him by his given name to make the two of them seem more intimate.
But now...
His heart was beating wildly and his whole body felt like it was on fire.
This feeling was unfamiliar to him.
Su Yuan took the opportunity to hug him, "Su Yan, are you shy? Don't you think your handwriting is very similar to my name?"
Was this intentional by Li Yanhua? Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?
Cheng Lang smiled, he had known it for a long time.
Therefore, few people know his calligraphy, probably only a few old people like Li Yanhua and Li Chong know it.
Now there is one more person, Su Yuan.
"Hmm!" Cheng Liang said "Hmm" heavily.
If Su Yuan hadn't married Gu Zhiquan, he...
will not!
At that time, Su Yuan looked down on him and even hated him. Even if Su Yuan didn't marry Gu Zhiquan, it would not be his turn to get involved.
The girl he likes in front of him is different from the girl who married Gu Zhiquan.
He has nothing to be jealous of.
"Su Yan! You're going to be a father, are you happy?" Su Yuan asked with a smile.
Cheng Lang nodded and said, "Of course I'm happy! But..."
He felt regretful that he could not be a father openly.
But it doesn't matter! He had never planned to get married and have children, so now that he has his own flesh and blood, it's already a pleasant surprise.
Don’t be so greedy!
"What is it? You feel unhappy that you can't be a father uprightly?" Su Yuan let go of him and asked.
It’s too troublesome to divorce and remarry!
She doesn't want trouble!
Besides, this Marquis' Mansion is not bad, and she doesn't want it to be given to those old guys from the Gu family.
There was no clan leader to deal with on Cheng Liang's side, but on the Gu family's side, she was worried about leaving Gu Yu alone.
It’s good like this now, just being in the spotlight once is enough.
Complaining to the emperor has already made her the center of attention. If she divorces and remarries, won't she be pushed to the forefront of public opinion?
No matter which world it is, the power of public opinion cannot be underestimated.
She doesn't want to be the first one to stick out!
"It's not that I'm unhappy, it's just that I feel a little regretful." Cheng Lang explained.
Su Yuan held his hand and said seriously, "If this baby is a son, we will let him inherit the title of Duke Li. If this baby is a daughter, I will let her become the daughter of the Zhennan Marquis Mansion. What do you think?"
Cheng Liang bit his lip. Regardless of whether they were men or women, he wanted them to inherit his Duke's Mansion!
but……
In fact, there was not much wealth to inherit from their Duke's Mansion. There were only fertile fields, shops, and a title.
Women are indeed unable to inherit titles, and this world is indeed unfair to women.
Now that he has a child, he should make some plans for the child so that the child will have nothing to inherit.
Gu Yu has a title of marquis, fertile farms and shops, as well as the tens of millions of dollars of the Li family's wealth.
Their children can't be too bad!
Cheng Lang secretly made up his mind to make some plans for the children.
Originally, he had no intention of accumulating any property.
"Okay! I'll listen to you." Cheng Lang agreed.
Since she is a daughter, it is natural for Su Yuan to raise her, and it is my duty to stay with Su Yuan.
"Yu'er doesn't know about this yet. I want to wait until Yu'er comes back from vacation and then tell him slowly." Su Yuan continued.
Cheng Lang squeezed her hand and said, "Yu'er will definitely be happier than me."
When Gu Yu knew that he was going to have a younger brother or sister, he would definitely be happier than anyone else!
Su Yuan knew that Gu Yu would want a younger brother or sister, but...
