Chapter 36: Pregnancy Before Marriage?
Seeing the two women sitting and chatting happily, he stopped in his hurry.
Gu Luojin's appearance drew the attention of the two women to him.
"Ziyi, why didn't you tell me you were coming?"
She said, looking aggrieved, "I called you so many times, but you didn't answer."
"Oh, I rarely look at my phone when I'm filming."
To prove that he hadn't lied to her, Gu Luojin immediately opened her phone's call log.
Meng Ziyi interpreted this behavior as Gu Luojin caring about her and proving to her on the spot that he was indeed focused on filming and was not deliberately ignoring her.
The smile on his face widened even further.
In Nazha's view, Gu Luojin was proving his innocence to her, that he had not been in private contact with Meng Ziyi.
This man always puts her first, and I think about that.
Naza's indifferent lips suddenly curved into a slight smile, like a taut balloon suddenly deflating.
Although she immediately turned her face away to try to hide it, a hint of happy smile clearly flashed in her calm eyes.
Checking a call log, he saw both women simultaneously displaying satisfied expressions, leaving him unsure of their true feelings.
He sat down next to Nazha, eating the snacks Meng Ziyi had bought.
"Ziyi, how long are you planning to stay this time before going back?"
"Alright, Ziyi just arrived. She can stay as long as she wants. Why are you rushing her?"
Nazha immediately adopted the role of the legal wife, placing Meng Ziyi in the position of an outsider, thus clearly demonstrating the difference in their relationship in just one sentence.
Gu Luojin felt he couldn't crack the melon seeds anymore; he knew the contest had begun.
"Senior Nazha is the best. Being older means being more mature. Luo Jin should learn from her how to navigate social situations."
"They just arrived and they're already urging me to leave. They want me to spit out the food they ate, and then I'll leave."
"You said it? Then I'm going to really throw up."
Meng Ziyi knew Gu Luojin's character of keeping his word. When they broke up, he said he would quit, leaving her in an awkward position. If she hadn't been so magnanimous, she would have kicked him off the bed long ago.
After the two broke up, Gu Luojin never took the initiative to contact her.
This is where her ultimate weapon came in handy; Meng Ziyi touched her stomach.
"Chocolate, look at your dad, he doesn't care about you at all. You took such a long flight to see him."
Naza's body stiffened instantly, and her assistant, Yama, was stunned.
The two were pregnant out of wedlock?
Is this kind of bombshell inside information something a mere assistant like her should be allowed to hear? She'll probably be silenced by Brother Gu later.
Gu Luojin covered his forehead. He had miscalculated; Meng Ziyi had actually brought the dog along.
"Don't get me wrong, the dog's name is Chocolate."
Meng Ziyi put the puppy down from her arms.
The puppy ran towards Gu Luojin, finally seeing its male owner whom it hadn't seen for months.
It licked Gu Luojin's ankle and rubbed against his feet.
This is because the male owner is the most generous to it, feeding it dog food until it can't eat anymore.
The female owner is very stingy, setting fixed times and quantities, and even wants it to lose weight—what a joke!
A dog lives its whole life, isn't it all for these two bites of food?
The ground was a little dirty, so Gu Luojin picked it up.
"Chocolate, look how thin you've become."
He held it in his arms, but it no longer felt heavy.
Chocolate understood Gu Luojin's words and made whimpering sounds to indicate that she was being abused.
"Ziyi, look how you're feeding it. If you're not feeding it properly, bring it over for me to feed."
Upon hearing this, Chocolate squealed with delight.
"Shut up, Chocolate." The mistress's imposing manner was etched into its very bones.
It stopped its appeal, dared not utter a sound, and lay in Gu Luojin's arms, wagging its tail.
This surprised Nazha and her assistant.
"Xiao Gu, this dog really understands human speech."
"It really understands."
"If you don't believe me, tell it that you want to celebrate your birthday, and it will wag its tail immediately."
"It really is true."
"If you tell it to do some work, it will immediately start snoring and pretend to be asleep."
"What breed is this dog? It's so smart!"
Pomeranian.
This made Naza consider getting a dog.
"Xiao Gu, how about we get a dog as smart as Chocolate?"
Gu Luojin felt that there was an element of metaphysics involved in this thing; every family should have at least one smart person.
When God was showering wisdom upon humankind, Mencius opened his umbrella, and thus, intelligence was transferred to chocolate.
This way, the biological balance won't be disrupted.
The chocolate, which had been docile just moments before, suddenly bared its teeth and looked ready to bite.
"Shut up, I wasn't talking about you."
Since no dog could threaten its position, it retracted its fangs, which it had never shown before, and lay obediently in its owner's arms.
"I don't have any problems, but there are a few things to keep in mind."
"It takes a long time to teach it to poop in the toilet and to learn to understand human commands."
"These two aspects alone will take several months; without patience and energy, education cannot be done well."
"Besides that, I also need to bathe it, vaccinate it regularly, and choose high-quality dog food. If I have to go on a business trip, I'll also need to find someone to take care of it."
Naza was immediately overwhelmed by the idea; it was too much trouble and she gave up on the idea of getting a dog.
"How long was the chocolate cultured?"
"It's only been a month, but its intelligence is probably higher than Ziyi's."
"Gu Luojin, are you trying to get yourself killed? Why don't you compare your intelligence to that of a dog?"
Meng Ziyi, who was standing nearby, protested his statement and strongly disagreed with it.
"My IQ is definitely higher than itss, is there even a need to compare?"
This is the proper place to sleep. The dog is sleepy, so it's going to sleep now.
Keep arguing, you humans.
The chocolate in its arms started snoring amidst the argument between its two owners.
"Give me the dog right now."
Meng Ziyi was very worried that Gu Luojin would take the chocolate away, and then she would be in despair.
Gu Luojin returned the chocolate to her.
The morning's exchange resulted in victories and defeats for both sides.
……
After the three of them finished eating out, Meng Ziyi also booked a room at the film set.
As his ex-girlfriend, she could only watch Gu Luojin and Nazha return to the same room, and she could only angrily return to her own room.
"What's wrong with that dog?"
Gu Luojin explained things to Nazha, which calmed her down.
In the afternoon, Meng Ziyi kept using the excuse of dogs to chat with Gu Luojin, which made Nazha very unhappy. She wanted to ask her assistant to buy a cat on the spot.
She wouldn't do something like blindly imitating someone else, nor would she deign to do it.
"I won't go easy on her tomorrow, you won't blame me, will you?"
"Hey, I have nothing to do with her now, you're my real girlfriend."
"Nazha, you know me, I'm definitely on your side."
He will speak up for whoever is by his side; there's no need for him to jeopardize his own happiness.
If Nazha is there, then definitely speak on Nazha's side; if Sister Meng is there, then speak on Sister Meng's side; don't offend either side.
"Just hearing that is enough."
Today, Meng Ziyi put on a beautiful makeup and launched a surprise attack.
Because her eyes were swollen from crying yesterday, she simply applied a sunscreen after waking up.
She only managed to hold her own because of her good looks; otherwise, she would have lost another round in the beauty contest today.
"Are you going back to your room to sleep tonight?"
Nazha paused for a moment, then said, "I'll sleep here."
"OK."
Her main concern was that Meng Ziyi was a restless sleeper and might sneak over in the middle of the night, which would mean she would end up with a hat on her head for no reason.
Gu Luojin started singing in the bathroom, and Nazha, who was getting a facial in the bedroom, laughed out loud at his singing.
If she doesn't give it to him for a while, his expression will definitely be quite interesting.
Considering Gu Luojin's good behavior today, and that she's always on his side, I'll give it to him.
Wang Lu's plan, by sheer chance, led to a temporary reconciliation between the two.
Gu Luojin believes that love is like a tide.
