First Marriage Then Love 《先婚厚爱》Chapter 120 Translation

Previous Chapter 


120 Does not care

Although Qin Yun is not willing to let An Ran go back, but seeing her son  busy every day till the middle of the night yet still have to drive more  than an hour back to the military compound, as a mother she will still feel  distressed about it. 

In addition, seeing that although An Ran was pregnant, but the pregnancy  symptoms were not serious. The morning sickness happens only when she  brushed her teeth in the morning and feels nauseous. At other times, she  didn’t any severe vomiting reactions, so she was relieved to let her go.  But before leaving, she still did not forget to remind her what she should  pay attention to. In addition, she specially brought her the materials she  had specially asked Su Yi Jiao to print, and let her follow the information  to pay more attention to her nutritional intake.

------

Back from the military compound, after just entered the door, An Ran sigh  with satisfaction. Su Yi Cheng closed the door behind him, and An Ran  suddenly turned and hugged him.

Su Yi Cheng was somewhat stunned by her sudden actions, but he quickly  reacted. He chuckled and held her, asked, "What's wrong?" His hand  gently stroked her hair, it seems to be longer than before, after An Ran  left her job she had kept her hair long at his request. He liked how she  looked with longer hair.

An Ran shook her head and whispered softly against his chest. "We're home  now." Actually, the compound is also very good, minus away Qin Yun's  anxiety of allowing this and disallowing that, the air and environment of  the compound are very good, there is no urban hustle and bustle, there is  no serious environmental pollution, but after all, living with everyone,  there is less freedom, just like holding him now like this, she have to  consider so much, for fear of letting people see and being make a joke  about it. But here at home is not the same. This is the home of the two of  them. No matter how you hug and kiss, no one will see no one will joke  about it.

Thinking of this, looking up from his arms, smiling at him and said, "I  want to kiss you."

Su Yi Cheng wrinkled his brows and looked at her, and asked quietly, "Are  you sure?"

An Ran didn't notice the strangeness in his eyes, pouted and said with a  red face, "If you don't then forget it." Turned and was about to leave, but  the hand was pulled by Su Yi Cheng at the moment she turned her head, and  without waiting for her response, Su Yi Cheng's kiss was directly pressed  down, holding her head in his hand, giving her a hot, lingering kiss, using  his own actions to prove whether he wanted it or not.

"PIANG!!" Suddenly there was a sound of something being knocked down behind  him.

An Ran suddenly refocused, withdrew from Su Yi Cheng’s arms and turned to  look. Only to see  Auntie Zhang standing behind the bar counter embarrassed   and hurriedly said, “I didn’t see anything!” And quickly closed her eyes  and turned around with her back facing them.

An Ran's whole person burst red, not only her face, even her neck began to  rise in red.

Su Yi Cheng endured a smile. When he first came in, he knew that Auntie  Zhang was already here, because her shoes were at the door, and today also  happened to be Saturday. It was the day when auntie Zhang came to clean it,  so when suddenly An Ran said she wanted to kiss him, he had asked her like  that. At that time, he had already seen auntie Zhang behind her. Even if he  didn't like to act intimate in front of others, he also didn't want to miss  her taking initiative, so he held her face and pressed down on her lips.

An Ran simply wanted to dig a pit and bury herself in it. She slapped hard  on Su Yi Cheng in total embarrassment and turned to go to the master  bedroom.

Seeing An Ran running into the bedroom, Su Yi Cheng shook his head with a  smile, and then turned to auntie Zhang and said, "Auntie Zhang, you go back  first, otherwise someone would not be willing to step out of the door this  entire day."

Auntie Zhang also smiled and reached out to untie the apron on her body.  Actually the cleaning was almost finished anyways. Suddenly she thought of  something and said, "Sir would you like me to prepare dinner first before  leaving?"

"No need to, An Ran said that she want to eat the dishes I made today, I  will do it for her." Su Yi Cheng said gently.

Hearing this auntie Zhang no longer said anything more. She untie the apron  on her body and put it in the kitchen. She said, "Master is so good to  madam."

Su Yi Cheng smiled, raised his hand and looked at the time, took off his  suit jacket and put it on the sofa. He said, "If I am not good to my wife  who am I to be good towards then?" He said and went to the kitchen.

-----

Because she was in the military compound for one week, An Ran missed  father Lin’s surgery, but fortunately, the operation was very successful.  Now, father Lin only needed some rehabilitation, but regarding if the cancer  will relapse can be determined only after the operation. He will have to go  back to the hospital for review periodically.

On the second day after returning from the military compound, Su Yi Cheng  and An Ran went to the hospital to visit father Lin after the operation. He  look to be in very good condition, and this time, mother Lin’s face also had  a smile. Not like the melancholy look from before.

Su Yi Cheng only stayed in the hospital for a while and asked about some of  the basic situations of father Lin. He hasn’t started talking for too long  when his mobile phone starting ringing. It’s a call from Secretary Zheng. Not  knowing what was spoken but after the call Su Yi Cheng immediately returned  to the office after speaking to An Ran.

An Ran chatted with father and mother Lin, mother Lin also reminded her to  be careful after knowing she was pregnant, but An Ran saw a hint of sadness  from the face of mother Lin. An Ran knew that she was reminded of Lin Li’s  child who had no chance to be born.

After staying in the ward for a while, mother Lin asked Lin Li to take a  walk with An Ran round the garden in the hospital.

Today's Lin Li seems to be somewhat unsettled, her silence seems a bit  suspicious. The two sat down on the aisle in the garden.

Without waiting for An Ran to ask, Lin Li said frankly, "I saw Cheng Xiang  yesterday."

An Ran paused, but did not know what to say, just looking at her.

Lin Li smiled, but her smile was bitter. "He didn't see me, behind him was  that woman."

"Lin Li..." An Ran looked at her with some concern.

Lin Li turned to look at her, slightly shook her head. "I'm fine, telling  you that was just that I don't want to lie to you. I can't say that I don't  feel anything at all, it's still very uncomfortable."

An Ran didn't talk, just reached out and held her hand.

Lin Li also held her hand back, and she couldn’t help but shed her tears.  She told herself that that man was in the past and told herself not to feel  sad for that person again, but maybe not enough time has passed, and then  thinking about that image again, her heart feels uncomfortably tight.

An Ran knew that whatever she says right now is useless, but looking at her  like this, she also feel sad for her. She hugged her and they both cried  for a while.

When they let go, they saw each other's swollen red eyes and the two  could not help but laugh.

Rubbing her eyes, Lin Li said, "I am preparing to go find a job tomorrow,   wish me good luck."

An Ran nodded and looked at her and said, "Tomorrow will be a success!"

Lin Li was so annoyed yet amused and rolled her eyes at An Ran, said,"Can  you not give a better good luck speech?" It's not as if looking for a job  is a walk in the park!

"Mrs. Su." The two were talking and laughing when a beautiful female voice  suddenly sounded from behind them, interrupting their conversation.

An Ran turned her head and saw that Tong Xiao Jie was standing a few steps  behind them. Looking at her, her face with a smile that's unlike a smile.

"How come it's her?" Lin Li whispered, turning to look at An Ran.

An Ran paused slightly, but quickly reacted, only looking at her and giving  a faint nod, "Ms Tong."

Tong Xiao Jie approached them, and then stood in front of An Ran. Her mouth  was still in a half-hook, saying. "Actually, I prefer people to call me  Mrs. Mo." Seemingly defending their sovereignty and territory, she likes  others to put on the label that connects her to Mo Fei, as if it would  prove that Mo Fei only belongs to her alone.

An Ran absentmindedly nodded and said, "Indeed I should call you Mrs. Mo,  it's my mistake, I hope Mrs. Mo doesn't mind."

"I don't mind, just remember it from now on." Tong Xiao Jie seems to hint  at something else entirely within her words, her eyes hinted with a deep  meaning that others can't fathom.

An Ran nodded, smiled and did not speak. If in the past she had minded Tong  Xiao Jie even a little, then right now she really has nothing against her  at all, because she has really totally let go of Mo Fei, Tong Xiao Jie is  of no concern of hers now.

After obsessing with it for so many years, it's only recently she realized  that those things are nothing but emotional burdens. Even if Mo Fei didn't  leave  her then, even if Mo Fei had came back to her a few years ago, she  wouldn't be able to accept him again, because she couldn't accept the  betrayal at all. The reason why she persisted for so many years may be  because she felt grievance for herself. Because even the reason for the  breakup is so unclear, actually, the obsession is just for an explanation.

Some people and things are simply not worth holding on to. When Chen Cheng  told her that the person who had stolen the design was Mo Fei, she suddenly  felt that it was so ridiculous of her to be persistent and unable to let go  of such a man, it makes no sense.

"Mrs. Su is not asking me about what I am doing in the hospital?" said Tong  Xiao Jie, looking at her, her face looking smug and seemingly showing off.

An Ran smiled and shook her head and asked, "What does Mrs. Mo’s coming to  the hospital have to do with me?"

Tong Xiao Jie paused, then chuckled softly and said, "Indeed it really  doesn't matter, but I sincerely hope for Mrs. Su to wish me well  personally."

An Ran raised an eyebrow and asked, "What for?"

Tong Xiao Jie looked at her, then spoke up and said, "I am pregnant, I hope  Mrs. Su will give both me and Mo Fei your blessings." Her eyes looked  straight at her, as if she wanted to see through her.

Hearing this, Lin Li subconsciously turned her head and looked at An Ran,  but she saw that there was no change in the mood on An Ran's calm face.

Looking at her eyes, An Ran smiled easily, and as she wished,  "Congratulations to you and Mo Fei, I give my best wishes to you both."  Then looking at the pair of high heels she worn on her feet that's with 10  cm high heels, She frowned and said, "Better try not to wear high heels when   pregnant. Wearing high heels is too dangerous. In addition, it is not good  for blood circulation."

Her calmness was beyond the expectations of Tong Xiao Jie. She thought that  she still hadn't let go of Mo Fei, but her calmness made her feel that she  had guessed wrong, or had she really let go of Mo Fei?

Pausing and looked at her for a while, only then does Tong Xiao Jie respond  a little embarrassed, nodded with a smile, and said only, "Thank you."  After saying it and watching her for a while, then turned and left.

Lin Li looked at her leave and turned to look at An Ran. After a while, she  asked, "Anzi, you... really don't mind, really let go?"

An Ran looked at her funnily and asked, "Do you think that I look like I  haven't let go?" She is going to be a mother soon, if she still can't let  go, she really deserved to be damned then.

Lin Li shook her head in a smile and said, "Your family's Leader Su really  has his ways, able to claim you completely in such a short time. It must be  some high level methods."

"Pppffftt" An Ran laughed out loud, but it is undeniable that Su Yi Cheng  really is charming. He is a gentle and considerate man. It is too difficult  to refuse such a man. It is too easy to fall in love with him, seemingly  without effort. Their lives have nothing to do with the ups and downs of  the TV dramas, their lives are plain, simple yet real, letting people feel  that happiness can be within their fingertips. Of course, this kind of  plain and real is not lacking in warmth and small romances. Meeting Su Yi  Cheng is really the luckiest thing in her life!

Holding Lin Li’s hand and looked at her, she seriously said, “You will meet  one too, you will meet the man who really dotes on you, indulges you, loves  you, but he is still on the way, don’t go too fast. Slow down and wait for  him to catch up."

Lin Li looked at her and forced down the tears that wanted to swell up. She  rolled her eyes annoyingly at An Ran, smiled and said, "Anzi, you are such  a busybody."

An Ran did not speak, just laughed, Lin Li also laughed, both of them in  laughter.

-----

Su Yi Cheng looked at the company information that Director Zhang  had recommended to win the bid, and looked at the name of the corporate  legal person of the company. He paused for a while.

Seeing him not moving or talking for a while, Director Zhang, who was  sitting in front of him, probed, "Deputy Mayor Su?"

Su Yi Cheng returned to his senses and looked up at him. He said, "En, is  this the winning bidder everyone has voted for, to be in charge of the  reconstruction of the old city in the north of the city?"

Director Zhang nodded. "En, yes. Everyone agrees that this company is  competent enough to handle the task."

Closing the folder and putting it back on the brown-black desk, asking,  "This company has just been established, for such a big project, can the  company really handle it?"

"Actually, we have investigated that this company has successfully  completed several similar projects in the United States before, but six  months ago without any reason it moved directly back to China. I checked  the projects they had done in the United States, and the response was very  good, so we absolutely believe that they can do a good job of rebuilding  the old district."

Su Yi Cheng did not speak, but just took the folder on the table again,  opened it, and looked at the two words written by the bidding company's legal  person - Zhou Han, and for a while, he seemed deep in thoughts.

Seeing that he had not made a decision, Director Zhang probed, "What does  Deputy Mayor Su feels there to be a problem with?"

A pause later, Su Yi Cheng shook his head, only faintly saying. "If  everyone had unanimously decided, I will agree to it according to the  decision."

"Okay, then I will arrange it to be done." Director Zhang nodded and said,  then he immediately got up and left Su Yi Cheng's office.

Squeezing his aching eyebrows, Su Yi Cheng leaned back on the leather  swivel chair. The mobile phone on the table sounded at this time, and it  was a phone call from Ye Zi Wen. He reached out for the phone and picked it  up. Respond tiredly, "Hello."

"Ah Cheng, come out for a drink tonight." Ye Zi Wen said directly.

"Impossible, An Ran is alone at home, I have to go back early." Su Yi Cheng  almost refused without needing to think about it.

"Su Yi Cheng, is Gu An Ran a child? She does not dare to be at home alone?  I didn't know that you are so henpecked, aren't you being too obedient to  her?!" Ye Zi Wen said with dissatisfaction, how many times has it been? It  seems that since he got married, they seem to have never come out to drink  together. Is it true of all married men? That would just be too horrible!

"An Ran is pregnant now, it's different." Su Yi Cheng smiled, did not seem  to mind what he said, indeed he spoiled his wife and did not mind being  called henpecked or even being a slave to his wife.

On the other side of the phone, Ye Zi Wen paused and laughed loudly. "Well  done, Ah Cheng, you really have your ways. Just how long have you been  married now, have you been extra diligent?"

"If there's nothing else I'll hang up now." Su Yi Cheng said faintly, he  will not discuss with him on how diligent he was.

Hearing him saying that he wants to hang up, Ye Zi Wen said hurriedly,  "Wait, Ah Cheng come out for a while tonight." Ye Zi Wen's tone  uncharacteristically became serious.

Su Yi Cheng raised an eyebrow and asked, "Is something wrong?"

"There is something I want to ask you." Ye Zi Wen said a little bit  desperately, "6 o'clock, waiting for you at the usual place."

Su Yi Cheng did not refuse, nodded, "OK."

Hanging up the phone, thinking about it, then calling An Ran number.

The phone was quickly connected, and the sound of pleasant laughter came  from the phone. "Hello, Great leader Su, are you finally done?" With a  ridiculing tone of voice, An Ran used this method to show her little  dissatisfaction. They had originally planned to go to the hospital to visit  father Lin. After that the two of them had planned to go on a date. A real  date after their mutual confessions, a date with no planning, doing  whatever they want to do, doing whatever they are happy with, but plans  never seems to be able to cope with changes, after a phone call, the date  irrevocably came to a premature termination.

"I'm sorry." Su Yi Cheng took the initiative to admit the mistake and  explained, "Something came up unexpectedly."

"I didn't say anything." An Ran muttered. Of course she know he was busy.  Naturally, she understood but at the same time she felt distressed. She was  afraid that he would not be able to rest and be too tired.

"En, my wife is the most understanding." Su Yi Cheng said with praise.

"Glib mouth." Although An Ran said this over the line, but she can't help  but smile a gorgeous smile.

Su Yi Cheng chuckled and asked, "Are you back from the hospital?"

"En, I am at my mother's house now, and mother asked you to come over to  eat at night." An Ran said.

Hearing that she was at her mother's house, this is exactly what he wanted.  He said, "Zi Wen wants to talk to me at night, tonight I won't go over.  After the chat I will go over to fetch you."

About Ye Zi Wen, An Ran suddenly thought of something, said, "Yi Cheng, you  try to test Ye Zi Wen tonight." She remembered the last time in the  military compound, the grievances and helplessness of the crying Su Yi  Jiao.

Frowning, Su Yi Cheng asked questioning, "What happened?"

An Ran briefly told him about what happened. "You try to test what is his  attitude toward Jiaojiao. If he really don't like it and it's impossible,  then Yi Jiao can let go." "Emotional matters can't be forced, the longer  you drag, the more it will hurt. Sometimes you need to be arbitrarily about  it. Even if it hurts, it is only short-term.

Su Yi Cheng was silent for a while, nodded and said, "Okay."

The usual place where Ye Zi Wen refers to is a high-level leisure club with  independent cafes and bars. It is the best place for people who like to be  quiet and do not want to be disturbed and looking for privacy. Of course,  the threshold for entry is also high. Normal people basically can't get in,  the annual membership fee is as high as one million. Ye Zi Wen was the  original designer of the Zhang Clubhouse, so he has lifetime membership  here. Because considering the identity of Su Yi Cheng, going to bars and  clubs will invite gossips and be made into front page news, so this is the  most common gathering place for them.

When Su Yi Cheng arrived, Ye Zi Wen was sitting alone at the bar and  drinking, he had opened a bottle of whiskey, and had already drunk most of  it.

Sitting next to him, he asked the waiter for a glass of water, and ordered  a serving of pasta. He didn't plan to drink, he had to drive to pick An Ran  up later. Turning around and looking at the person next to him, Su Yi Cheng  said coolly, "You told me to come is not to let me be your chauffeur and to  send you back right?"

Ye Zi Wen looked up and drank again, then turned his head and looked at Su  Yi Cheng. He asked, "Xiao Jiao has a boyfriend?" Two days ago, he saw her  being very affectionate and holding a man’s hand walking in the street. The  two even had a laugh and chatted happily, and in the past week, that girl  never even gave him a phone call. This has never happened before. For the  past two days he has always felt that something is wrong and his entire  being just felt uncomfortable!

Su Yi Cheng slightly frowned. It seems that he didn't even need to test  him, that someone is going to confess immediately.

He did not immediately rush to answer his question. He turned to take over  the water that the waiter handed over. Su Yi Cheng politely thanked him,  "Thank you."

Someone apparently waited with some impatience, and said dissatisfied,  "Hey, I am asking you."

Su Yi Cheng now then turned his head and looked at him. He shook his head  calmly and said, "I'm not sure."

Ye Zi Wen frowned. "How can you be her big brother, you don't care about  her at all!"

Su Yi Cheng took up the glass and drank. He said plainly, "She is no longer  a child, and she does not need to be look after."

"But she is still your sister!" For his indifference, Ye Zi Wen was  somewhat dissatisfied.

Turning his head again, Su Yi Cheng did not speak, just looking at him.

Ye Zi Wen was somewhat uncomfortable with his stare. "What are you looking  at?"

Su Yi Cheng said with a chuckle, "I thought that you already knew that  Jiaojiao was my sister more than twenty years ago."

Ye Zi Wen was stifled, and could not say a word.

Su Yi Cheng said with a slightly serious tone, "Ye Zi Wen, if you can't  give the feelings that Yi Jiao wants, then don't give her hope. After time  passes and not able to get your response, she will let go, one day. "This  is a warning to him from a brother that loves his sister!

Ye Zi Wen looked at him stunned. He had never thought that one day, she  would walk away. She had been behind him since she was a child. He really  didn’t think what would happen if one day she stop following behind him. He  had never, never thought about it!

Su Yi Cheng turned and stopped looking at him, drinking water and waiting  for the pasta.

"Zi Wen?" There was a low male voice behind him. Ye Zi Wen seemed to be  still indulged in his own emotions and did not respond. Instead, Su Yi  Cheng turned around and looked at the man who was a few steps away from  them. There was a slight surprise.

  6. Damn, he really needs to work faster on his feelings since Su Yi Jiao was literally thinking about giving up on him. Even An Ran said to give up. YXW needs to get his shit together, since she is 26 already with her mother nagging about marriage. Can't let her wait forever.
