While Su Rui is still at school, Gu Yu Cheng was in a meeting at the company.

[Gu Company’s conference room] ‒ “Referring to the target in the original plan, we are currently at ……”

The project manager was in the middle of a business report when he noticed a sudden change in the expression of his chairman.

Was there something wrong? Or did I make a mistake somewhere?

It didn’t seem like it …

Yang Jie was puzzled. However, because of the change in Gu Yu Cheng’s expression, his heart was in a state of uncertainty, and his tone of voice began to stutter.

Noticing that the chairman did not stop him at this moment, Yang Jie had no choice but to harden his neck and continue with the following report.

Not just Yang Jie, but also the other people in the conference room, including Wang Zhou, were subconsciously nervous because of the change in Gu Yu Cheng’s expression and the atmosphere in the conference room.

However, they did not know that Gu Yu Cheng’s change in mood at this moment had nothing to do with the meeting or the project itself.

Gu Yu Cheng was currently holding his office tablet, which he uses more often when he is on business trips or at home.

Occasionally, at night, it would be used as Su Rui’s device for catching up on dramas, online shopping, or to look up some study materials.

Most of the apps and web pages on the tablet are registered to Su Rui’s account.

It’s not a secretive matter, so usually neither of them cared.

Just now, another competing company was mentioned, so Gu Yu Cheng looked it up in passing.

But to his surprise, he happened to see a row of historical search records in the drop-down bar.

[Is it possible to be pregnant if your period is delayed for 10 days?]

[Is it possible to get pregnant during a safe period and without contraception?]

[What are the symptoms of early pregnancy?]

[How to determine if you are pregnant?]

[Calculation of period of pregnancy]

[How long do you have to be pregnant before the pregnancy kit detects your status?]

……

The word “pregnant” stimulated Gu Yu Cheng, so much so that the moment he saw it, he almost couldn’t control himself and stood up from his chair.

As for the report going on in the conference table, Gu Yu Cheng didn’t even listen to a single word.

“Stop for a moment.”

Just as Yang Jie was rigidly making his report and was about to doubt his life, Gu Yu Cheng finally called ‘stop’.

“Chairman, is there… a problem with the project? Or is there a problem in how it is being reported?” Someone asked carefully.

Because Gu Yu Cheng had his head down, they could not see the expression on the chairman’s face for the moment, but they could feel the change in Gu Yu Cheng’s mood.

Gu Yu Cheng was a man who had never even blinked in the face of a ten billion dollar project, but at this moment his mood swings had actually made them aware of it.

Then it must be a huge matter!

While the crowd was speculating, they heard Gu Yu Cheng speak again, “Regarding the advancement of the project and the limited issues, as well as the financial aspects, they will be put under a special report.”

“In addition, let me just say one thing,” Gu Yu Cheng added after a pause, “This project is…”

“So, I hope that you can remember here that Gu Company is not short of time and that actual competitiveness must come first.”

“As mentioned, is there anything else that needs to be clarified or resolved during the meeting?” Gu Yu Cheng asked.

“The projects department?”

“Uh, no.”

“Marketing and PR?”

“Nothing at the moment.”

“The others?”

“Not at the moment either.”

“Alright then, the meeting is adjourned.” Gu Yu Cheng stood up and said succinctly.

Very quickly, he ended the meeting for the day.

While the people in the room were still somewhat unable to keep up with the fast pace of the chairman today, Gu Yu Cheng already left immediately holding the tablet and documents in front of him.

“Chairman, you’re going out?” Wang Zhou asked, picking up Gu Yu Cheng’s suit jacket and catching up.

“En, I’m not in this afternoon, so put anything aside first.” Gu Yu Cheng explained, taking the jacket from Wang Zhou’s hand.

“Is it…the matter of lady boss?” Looking at his boss’s face, which was tense or something, Wang Zhou asked tentatively.

The name “lady boss” is what Wang Zhou came up with for Su Rui after pondering for a while.

It sounded more congenial and wouldn’t make her sound old.

He was still not sure what the original flow of today’s meeting was like.

He couldn’t think of a second possibility that could make his boss so anxious that he even forgot to pick up his jacket, except for the fact that it was about Su Rui.

“En.” Gu Yu Cheng answered.

“Is there something wrong?” Wang Zhou asked with concern, “Do you need me to…”

“No need.” Gu Yu Cheng refused, but a slight aura that seared the eyes rolled under his eyes.

As he watched Gu Yu Cheng enter the lift and leave, Wang Zhou stood in place, still confused.

Why did he feel that their chairman was not only nervous, but also… excited in a way he couldn’t describe? Excited?

And worried?

This state of affairs is a bit complicated. Anyhow, Wang Zhou wasn’t exactly sure and didn’t quite understand.

……

[University] ‒ The moment she received the call from Gu Yu Cheng, Su Rui was also a little surprised.

At this time of the day, Gu Yu Cheng was most likely busy.

So, after figuring out this regular pattern, Su Rui basically would not look for Gu Yu Cheng during this time, and the two of them would rarely call as well.

“Wifey.”

“Yu Cheng?”

“Where are you?”

“I’m still at school,” Su Rui said. She added, “Just about to head home.”

On the way back, she would go to the pharmacy and buy a pregnancy test-kit.

After being reminded of this by Tang Xiao, Su Rui was a bit confused, and then she looked it up on the internet, thinking that it would be better to go and buy a pregnancy test kit.

This was something Su Rui couldn’t really discuss with Tang Xiao currently.

So, when Tang Xiao wanted to drag Su Rui to go shopping, Su Rui simply shoved Tang Xiao to Liu Ling, who came to report to school with a bunch of bags, and treated her (Liu Ling) as free labour.

Hearing Su Rui’s words, Gu Yu Cheng’s body stiffened abruptly.

“Wait for me at school and don’t go anywhere. I’ll come over.”

“Hmm? You’re coming over? Is there something wrong?” Su Rui felt a bit strange.

“Be good, find a place to sit first and wait for me to come over”, said Gu Yu Cheng, adding, “I’ll be there soon.”

“En, okay, then I’ll wait for you at the back of the teaching building, the side near the library.”

Although she was filled with doubts, Su Rui still agreed to Gu Yu Cheng and added a warning, “I have nothing to do here, so drive slowly.”
