n his hand. His palm was large, and the cigarette seemed as small as a matchstick between his fingers.He puffed the flame to life, then took a long drag.Ho Xi came down from her desk and sat back in h...Wang Sao said.

Anran's body stiffened slightly, and Huo Yunsi also lowered his head to look at her, his gaze thoughtful.

Wangsao was also accustomed to seeing Gu Yunfan and Li Siqi act lovey-dovey, so at this time, she tactfully retreated first. The large restroom was left with just the two of them.

The atmosphere is quite delicate.

When An Ran was facing Lin Xi, Huo Yunsi wasn't there, so he didn't have any experience.

After a long silence, he asked gently, "How are you feeling Are you still uncomfortable"

An Ran covered her chest and shook her head slowly: "It's okay, just a little uncomfortable! ... Huo Yunsi, it's not necessarily pregnancy."

Perhaps it was a psychological effect, but she really wanted to be close to him.

Under the soft, dreamy lighting, she took the initiative to lean against him, her arms wrapped around his waist.

Huoyuns thoughts were also softening.

He lowered his head, extending a palm to rest lightly on her abdomen. It was still flat, but perhaps already nurturing another child of his. His gaze upon Anran was intriguing, his voice husky and undeniably seductive: “You've been eating quite a lot lately. Could it be because you're pregnant”

An Ran listened, feeling ashamed, her face buried in his chest the whole time.

Huò Yunsī expressed unspeakable tenderness.

This is his first time being a father, he's eager to know the news and keeps pleading, "Let's go to the hospital for a checkup!"

"The hospital is closed, how to check"

Huo Yunsi looked at her, then took out his phone and dialed Yan's secretary. Yan's secretary had just finished showering and his hair was still damp when he received a call from his boss.

"Please help me contact the best obstetrician in City B."

At night, Yan's secretary was in disarray in the wind...

Mr. Huo is having another episode!

Although it was summer, Huo Yunsi still brought his own jacket when going out and half-forcedly put it on Anran. Anran was rather helpless: "It's not cold, and besides, we might not even get pregnant! You're making such a fuss at night, what if nothing happens, it would be too embarrassing!"

Huo Yunsi sat in the driver's seat and fastened her seat belt meticulously. Finally, he gently stroked her belly: "There's none now, but with my abilities, I'll make you pregnant soon enough."

"You really want a child" Anran blushed slightly, trying to hide it.

Huo Yunsi supported both hands on the steering wheel, his eyes deep. After a moment, he said: “I’ve seen Rui Rui and Lu Chen when they were born, but I haven't seen Lin Xi as a baby... I want to see him.”

He spoke sincerely, his expression apologetic.

"I can hear the sadness in your voice," she gently said, "Didn't we agree Let's not blame each other, okay"

Her pale hand lay on his back, her voice soft.

"Aren't you going to the hospital At this time, do you still need me to comfort you"

Huo Yunsi's eyes deepened.

He didn't speak, but simply leaned in and kissed her lips softly. In a low, tender voice, he murmured, "Anran, I love you."

He was so looking forward to having a child.

He did all this because he loved An Ran. He just wanted to make up for the regrets of the past, to compensate her, to have another chance to take good care of her, and to make her feel happy.

Anran was somewhat moved.

Ho Yunsi bit her lip in displeasure: "Just confess your feelings to me."

An Ran feigned ignorance: "Confess what"

"Tell me you love me!" the man's voice was hoarse.

Originally, An Ran still wanted to tease him, but her gaze met his and she couldn't look away... After a long, long time, she whispered very softly, " Huo Yunsi, I love you too!"

He wore an impatient expression: "Do I look good"

" ...Aren't we going to the hospital"

Upon arrival at the hospital, after a blood test...Anran was indeed pregnant.

Huoyunsi looked at the document dozens of times before looking at Anran: "We have a daughter."

OB-GYN chuckled: "The child is still young, we don't know the gender yet!"

Huoyunsi folded the note and said, “It must be my daughter!”

In the elevator, he was already thinking about naming things. An Ran, however, gently stroked her belly, thinking of other things... Before, she tried hard to prove that she was capable and worthy of Huo Yunsi. But now her thoughts had changed. If two people were truly together, they would both make sacrifices.

Huoyunsi couldn't possibly let go of the Huo family.

The only thing she can do now is put her work on hold for a while!

Even though Gu Yunfan offered her very generous terms, and her future at the h city headquarters would be completely different, these things didn't appeal to An Ran as much.

She thought about these things, but did not tell Huo Yunshi directly.

After a long silence, the elevator doors opened and the two people were about to step out.

Standing at the elevator entrance was a man, none other than Si Wenli who had just called earlier tonight. He was dressed entirely in black and had visibly lost weight, likely due to the busy household affairs of the Si family taking their toll on him.

Three people looked at each other.

Si Wenli's lips moved, but Huo Yunsi spoke first: "Uncle Si, what a coincidence!"

He put on an act, but Si Wenli wasn't buying it.

He got straight to the point: “My elder brother had a last wish before he passed away. He wanted An Ran to take charge of the Si family's main company, so at this funeral, An Ran's identity is not just as my brother's child, but also as the future successor of the Si family.”

He looked at Anran and said softly, “I know you’re very strong. You follow Gu Yunfan to work, isn’t it just to prove yourself Now there’s such a good opportunity in front of you, I think any smart person wouldn’t refuse! … As for your older brother, he asked me to tell you that he has walked through those things and they should all be forgotten. What’s held in your hand is the most real.”

Si Wenli raised her head slightly, looking very mournful.

He repressed and repressed himself before continuing, “He said, he doesn’t ask you to call him father, he only hopes...”

Anran softly interrupted him: "I'm sorry, Mr. Si, I have no position nor interest in inheriting the Si family business. I think Anran should be the one to inherit it, not me!"

Si Wenli wanted to say something else,

Huoyuns thought turned his head, and said to Anran very gently: "You go wait for me in the car!"

Anran hesitated for a moment, but still followed his advice.

After she left, Huo Yunsi looked at Si Wenli and spoke softly: "..."

About five minutes later, Huo Yunshi got in the car.

Anran peered through the window and saw Si Wenli walk into another black motorhome. Soon, the motorhome left... She turned her gaze back to Huo Yunsi and asked, "What did you tell him"

Ho Yunsi started the car and smiled lightly, "I didn't say anything!"

An Ran didn't believe it.

……

Late at night, the mourning hall of the Si family.

A sleek black RV screeched to a halt, its door swung open, and a slender figure emerged.

Si Wenli slowly walked towards the mourning hall.

On either side, were pristine candles, with transparent wax slowly dripping down, like tears flowing for the departed.

Si Wenli walked straight to the end.

He burned paper money for his elder brother, knelt down and lit incense, the smoke rising in wisps.

He said softly, “Brother, An Ran is pregnant! She will soon give birth to the second child of the Huo family, perhaps another grandson, or a pearl in the palm of her hand. Anyway, she will live a good life from now on. Huo Yunsi loves her very much… I think we should not force her to inherit the Si family anymore! You think she is strong, but Huo Yunsi said that An Ran actually doesn’t have any big ambitions. She still likes to cook, raise dogs, and take care of children… Brother, I think Huo Yunsi understands An Ran better than we do! If you feel guilty for her, then fulfill her wish and let her live the life she wants!”sticks.She looked up at him and said softly, "Gu Yunfan, can we be normal You're married. Is this level of attentiveness appropriate"She pointed at the table full of food: “We shouldn’t have had this...
