northernbook Chapter 271 Double Surprise
Chapter 271 Double Surprise
After a long journey, He Zhuo drove the company's business car to pick us up at the airport. Zhou Minghe's mood improved again, and he looked at me with more eagerness.
I know why he was happy. In his opinion, I had already made my choice. Even when he saw Su Beicheng leaving unwillingly, he must have been secretly happy in his heart.
Watching Zhou Minghe pushing my suitcase briskly out of the airport, my already calm mood suddenly became a little interesting.
I remember reading in a book that if you want to outperform 90% of people, you must first remove the concept of gender and abandon the idea that you are a woman. Just think of yourself as a human being, without the weaknesses of a man, and reduce the weaknesses of being a woman.
Men’s weakness is that they are easily attracted by beauty, while women pursue being loved and always like to fall into the abyss of emotions.
Men who fail in investment and women who are trapped in love will waste time and energy.
If you put aside these two weaknesses and have the logical thinking of a man and the sharp intuition of a woman, you will be invincible.
What I need to do now is to strengthen my internal control over my desires, no longer be easily influenced by others, and make correct and rational decisions at every moment.
It’s not that I don’t love Su Beicheng, I just choose to reduce the harm and save myself in this dead-end relationship.
Zhou Minghe stood beside the car and looked back at me.
He Zhuo smiled and joked, "Oh, I thought it was some big star who arrived, but it turned out to be our sister Jingjing. You walked into my dream in those few steps."
I was stunned. Was it because I was walking so fast just now that I had relaxed my emotions?
"Do you think of her as the object of your dreams?" Zhou Minghe stared at He Zhuo coldly from the side.
He Zhuo shuddered and immediately stood up straight: "How dare I? I have always treated Jingjing as my sister."
"You'd better not let your imagination run wild." Zhou Minghe was very strong and domineering.
He Zhuo narrowed his eyes. As smart as he was, how could he not see that Zhou Minghe was jealous?
I bent down and got into the car, Zhou Minghe followed me in, and He Zhuo quickly put my suitcase in the trunk for me.
Zhou Minghe stared at me and asked, "Are you still sad?"
I shook my head: "No, I just want to work hard now."
"Turning sadness into motivation to make money?" Zhou Minghe bit his lip. "I thought you would transfer your feelings to me."
"How do you know there isn't one?" I looked at him with bright eyes.
Zhou Minghe was stared at by my bewitching eyes. His expression paused for a moment, and then the corners of his lips rose.
When we got home, we were both very tired. We took a shower, ate something, and prepared to rest.
The next morning, Zhou Minghe said to me, "If you still feel tired, don't go to the company in the morning. You can come over in the afternoon."
"Is it okay?" I just wanted to go to the hospital for a check-up, so I sent a text message asking Zhou Yin to accompany me, and Zhou Yin agreed.
"Well, you continue to rest." Zhou Minghe changed his shoes and went out.
Zhou Yin is a very casual girl with a distinct personality. She is also very rational and thoughtful. The reason why she and I can become friends is probably because our personalities resonate with each other.
Especially when she heard that I was going to be a single mother, Zhou Yin's friendship with me reached a new level. She also agreed that women can have offspring without getting married, because she said that when she is successful in her career in the future, she also plans to follow this path.
I actually feel that it might be caused by her family reasons. Her parents must have had problems after marriage, but she chose not to tell anyone.
Zhou Yin drove over to see me, and I saw that she had changed her car. She used to drive a Porsche, but now she drives a small BMW.
"Did you change your car again?" I asked her with a smile.
"Don't mention it. My car was parked outside for a night and two tires were pried off. The spare tire in the trunk was also stolen." Zhou Yin looked depressed.
I was stunned: "No way, there is such a thing."
I got in the car, and Zhou Yin said angrily, "I didn't expect this to happen, but it did. I'll have to learn from it."
After arriving at the hospital and undergoing a series of tests, the doctor told me that I was pregnant with twins. She also told me the genders of the children very clearly, one boy and one girl.
Zhou Yin widened her eyes and stared at my lower abdomen.
My breathing gradually became rapid, and my inner excitement made my fingers tremble when I took the order. I always thought that I was only pregnant with one child, and no matter whether it was a boy or a girl, I would give all my maternal love to him.
But now, the doctor actually said that I was pregnant with twins, a boy and a girl. This was another surprise on top of the surprise.
"Wow, they're twins, a boy and a girl." Zhou Yin reached out and hugged me, smiling even happier than me. "This is very rare, Jingjing. You're so lucky."
As she held me in her arms, I gradually accepted this surprise, and my heart was filled with turmoil. Does this mean I have to work harder to make money?
After all, the cost of raising two children is greater than that of raising one child.
"Jingjing, are you so happy you've gone mad? Why don't you smile?" Zhou Yin released her hand and pinched my cheeks: "Don't be afraid, this is a gift from God. In fact, two children are definitely better. They won't grow up alone and will always have a companion. I have a younger brother than me..."
Zhou Yin fell silent after she finished speaking, lowering her head. "But he has the same father as me but different mothers. He's only seven years old, and I've only met him a few times. He's actually very sensible, not as naughty as other children. He's always happy to hug me and call me sister when he sees me, but I... I just can't fall in love with him."
I was stunned. I didn't expect Zhou Yin to say this to me so suddenly. Hearing the disappointment and sadness in her voice, I turned around and hugged her: "Zhou Yin, thank you for sharing your worries with me."
Zhou Yin forced a smile. "I really don't understand. I had the impression that my parents were actually in love, but why... now that I've grown up, they only maintain a superficial harmony. In reality, they've been living their own lives for a long time."
I looked at her confused expression and couldn't find words to comfort her.
"Everything will be fine. You have grown up now and are an excellent talented woman." I said with a smile.
Zhou Yin seemed to be comforted by my words. She nodded and said, "Yes, I am already independent. When I return to China next time, I will ask them to stop putting on a show for me. If they want a divorce, I will agree."
I nodded, and couldn't help but think, Zhou Yin's family must be wealthy, but why can't wealthy people let their relationship go deeper? Is it because there are too many temptations and too many choices?
At noon, I invited Zhou Yin to dinner. Thinking back to the sound of a small train I heard during the B-ultrasound just now, it was the baby's heartbeat.
"Jingjing, you are working at Zhou Minghe Company now. How do you feel about it?" Zhou Yin asked me curiously.
"It's okay, he's a very nice boss." I said with a smile.
"Will Zhou Minghe harass you?" Zhou Yin asked again.
I was taking a sip of water when her words nearly made me spit it out. I quickly grabbed a piece of paper, put it to my lips, and smiled, "He and I have an okay relationship. He's not that kind of person."
