Meanwhile, shortly after Gu Yu Cheng left the house, Liu Yue had the family’s housekeeper come over to One Residence with a large bag of things.

“Mum, why did you bring so many things over?” Su Rui asked in surprise and looked at the things Mother Su brought.

With this stance, she almost thought that Mother Su was carrying her luggage and was coming over for a temporary stay.

Looking at the surprise in Su Rui’s eyes, Liu Yue explained, “These are some food I prepared for you at home, as well as things that you might need for your pregnancy.”

“I’m just afraid that you’ll have cravings when you stay at home. So I’ve divided all these food items to chill in the fridge. When you want to eat them, you can just have Yu Cheng take them out and warm them up for you.”

“And these may appear to be useless now, but you’ll know when you are further in the pregnancy. I’ll tell you how to use them later.”

Su Rui grabbed Liu Yue’s arm, leaned her head towards Liu Yue and said intimately, “Alright. Thanks, Mum.”

“Okay, okay, you are someone who is almost a mother, but you are still acting coquettishly.”

Mother Su smiled and glanced at Su Rui. Then, her gaze turned serious again.

“Very well, tell me, what happened? Why did you suddenly take such a long leave of absence?”

Liu Yue was aware of what kind of temperament her daughter has.

Her belly was not showing yet and since it was already planned before, Su Rui definitely would not take leave for no reason if she did not finish several exams this semester.

Being asked by Liu Yue, Su Rui knew that she could not muddle through with a random excuse. So she simply told the truth.

“I wasn’t feeling very well earlier.”

Of course, Su Rui did not tell why she wasn’t feeling well and the part about Bai Xin Yu.

As Su Rui spoke, she noticed Mother Su’s expression changed. She quickly added, “At that time, I went to the hospital for a check-up. It wasn’t very severe, except that the doctor suggested that it was better to rest at home for a week or two.”

Listening to Su Rui’s explanation, Mother Su’s expression wasn’t that great.

“If you were feeling unwell, why didn’t you inform your family?”

Su Rui smiled curtly at Mother Su and said, “I’m just afraid all of you would be anxious.”

“You think we aren’t anxious because you didn’t inform us?”

“I will say! Next time I will!” Su Rui assured.

“You still want there to be a next time?”

After several reminders, Mother Su suddenly looked straight at Su Rui.

“During this time, you and Gu Yu Cheng won’t be fooling around, right?” Mother Su asked, looking at Su Rui with a look of #torturing the soul.

Otherwise, why would she suddenly feel unwell for no reason?

These two young people living together without any elder watching, was just unsettling.

Su Rui’s expression froze when she heard Mother Su’s words.

“No, absolutely not!”

“It’s probably because I didn’t get enough sleep during that time when I was preparing for that big assignment.” Su Rui said as she found another random excuse.

Mother Su gave a reluctant nod.

“Then, let me ask you again. Does Gu Yu Cheng come home on time during this period? There’s nothing out of the ordinary, right?” When Mother Su said this, she subconsciously lowered her voice.

Hearing these words, Su Rui stared blankly for about ten seconds before she realized what Mother Su meant. She instantly didn’t know whether to cry or laugh.

“Don’t worry, Mum. He’s quite good.”

In fact, Su Rui wanted to say that Gu Yu Cheng was busy like crazy these few days. Not only did he not have that time, he probably didn’t even have sufficient energy and strength.

Moreover, Gu Yu Cheng wasn’t that kind of person either.

There was, however, a real abnormality.

“Mum, let me ask you a question.”

“What?”

“When you were pregnant with me, was Dad particularly anxious?” Su Rui asked.

“Anxious?” Hearing Su Rui’s words, Mother Su lightly snorted and continued, “It wasn’t until I gave birth to you that he reacted to the fact that he was a father.”

“He was so wood-headed, how could he get anxious…”

As she said that, Mother Su looked at Su Rui again.

“Yu Cheng is very anxious lately?”

“En.” Su Rui nodded.

“Isn’t it good for him to be anxious for you? It’s better than your dad…”

“No, I think he is a little too anxious.”

Regarding this, Su Rui also specially went online to look up the emergence and symptoms of prenatal depression in men.

“Mum.”

“Yu Cheng is back.”

Mother Su was still there when Gu Yu Cheng returned.

Looking at the vegetarian dim sum that Gu Yu Cheng brought over, Mother Su’s eyes sparkled and gave her daughter a second look.

This girl was really good at helping her husband score points from his mother-in-law.

But it is a good thing. Isn’t that what managing a marriage is all about?

And even though she had guessed the ‘truth’, Mother Su was still very happy to see the snacks that she had been into lately.

“Eh. Yu Cheng, you’ve changed your hairstyle.”

“En.”

“It’s pretty good. You look more spirited.”

“Rui Rui, what are you laughing at?”

“Nothing, Mum, have some dim sum.”
