Marital problems spiral out of control

Seven years into their marriage, on the day Wen Hua became pregnant.

Fu Shishen's beloved is also pregnant.

……

Outside Ruijin Hospital, Jiangzhou.

Wen Hua sat in the car, clutching a test report in her hand, which read "Confirmed Pregnancy".

After seven years of marriage, she finally had another child.

The baby is seven weeks old, and the fetal heartbeat can be heard.

She thought Fu Shishen would be very happy to hear this news.

The moment she picked up her phone, she suddenly fell silent because she saw Fu Shishen.

Wen Hua's gaze was fixed on the outside through the car window.

Fu Shishen discreetly escorted a woman towards the hospital.

It was just a fleeting glimpse, but she still recognized her; it was Jiang Ruan.

She is a top-tier actress and has many collaborations with the Zhou Group.

She and Fu Shishen took more photos together in a year than she did in their seven years of marriage.

She and Fu Shishen had a secret marriage, so no one knew she was Mrs. Fu.

The ambiguous relationship between Fu Shishen and Jiang Ruan led everyone to believe that Jiang Ruan was Fu's wife.

Fu Shishen is present at every major event Jiang Ruan holds.

When they first got married, Wen Hua was also a little bothered.

Fu Shishen's words were concise and to the point: Jiang Ruan could bring great profits to the company, and as Mrs. Fu, she should be generous and proper, and not be jealous for no reason.

Of course, we shouldn't offend Jiang Ruan over such trivial matters.

Wen Hua believed it.

But now that she has seen it with her own eyes, that uncomfortable feeling is still vivid in her mind.

Suddenly, my phone vibrated, and a gossip headline popped up on the app.

Actress Jiang Ruan, dressed loosely, is suspected of being pregnant.

Is Jiang Ruan pregnant?

Wen Hua panicked a little, but she quickly calmed herself down, took a deep breath, and picked up her phone to call Fu Shishen.

Her eyes were fixed on him the whole time, until he discreetly led Jiang Ruan into the hospital.

The call has been connected.

"Shi Shen..." Wen Hua spoke first.

But before she could finish speaking, Fu Shishen interrupted her: "I have something else to do."

"I have something to tell you," she said cautiously.

"We'll talk about it when we get back." This time, Fu Shishen hung up the phone immediately.

Wen Hua stared quietly at the phone that had just been hung up, her heart pounding, and a sense of panic becoming increasingly apparent.

"Don't overthink it. Jiang Ruan just works a lot with Shi Shen, so going to the hospital was just an accident." She reassured herself again and again.

The car was already driving smoothly towards the villa.

……

Fu Shishen returned at 8 p.m.

"Shi Shen, you're back." Wen Hua walked gently toward him, instinctively taking the briefcase and suit jacket from his hands.

A faint scent of perfume wafted from Fu Shishen, but it wasn't his own.

She paused for a moment, then subconsciously thought of Jiang Ruan.

"I'm going to take a shower," he said indifferently.

After saying this, Fu Shishen turned and walked towards the master bedroom on the second floor.

Wen Hua was already used to this blandness.

She followed him upstairs.

The misty shower room reflected the man's perfect physique: broad shoulders, narrow hips, and long legs.

His shoulder blades swayed with the splashing motion, his profile was strong and resolute, his features were deep-set, his nose was high and straight, and his thin lips carried a hint of aloofness.

She had seen this scene countless times, but it still made her feel uneasy.

She composed herself and bent down to collect Fu Shishen's dirty clothes.

Just then, Fu Shishen's phone, which was inside his suit jacket, suddenly vibrated.

Wen Hua quickly walked towards the laundry basket, found her phone, and was about to give it to Fu Shishen.

As a result, the moment the phone was taken out, a pregnancy test report was also pulled out.

The black and white text on white paper was somewhat glaring.

Wen Hua's hands trembled slightly as she picked up the paper, but she suddenly lost the courage to open it.

They had been married for seven years, and although it was a secret marriage, their relationship was very good. Fu Shishen would never do anything to betray her.

But then she suddenly saw the name of the patient.

Ginger is soft.

Seeing the two clear words, Wen Hua's heart trembled.

Her fingers curled, gripping the phone tightly.

Therefore, the previous gossip was not false, but true.

Jiang Ruan is pregnant!

The news left her stunned and speechless.

The phone rang for a while and then I hung up. Several more messages popped up.

[Shi Shen, why aren't you answering the phone?]

[The baby was very well-behaved during today's checkup.]

My birthday is coming up soon, what should I get you this time?

Happy 10th anniversary, Shi Shen!

One after another.

Wen Hua's fingers, gripping the pregnancy test report, turned slightly white. She tried hard not to cry, but tears had already fallen and landed on the report.

Soon, she heard Fu Shishen's footsteps return.

Wen Hua hurriedly wiped away her tears and stuffed her phone and the sheet back into his coat.

Before she could calm herself down, Fu Shishen walked in, drying his hair: "My phone rang?"

Wen Hua lowered her eyes to avoid his gaze and hurriedly walked out of the restroom, saying, "Really? I didn't notice."

"Wen Hua, what did you want to talk to me about earlier?" Fu Shishen suddenly asked.

Fu Shishen fiddled with the phone in his hand, his expression showing no sign of anything amiss. Even his earlier displeasure at being interrupted was well concealed.

Wen Hua composed herself and looked quietly at Fu Shishen: "It's nothing serious, I'm just a little bored staying at home all the time, and I want to go out and work."

Fu Shishen frowned, his expression turning grim as he looked at Wen Hua: "Wen Hua, you are Mrs. Shen. You should know what you should and shouldn't do. Don't bring up work-related matters again. There's absolutely no way you'll do that."

His tone was forceful, brooking no questioning from Wen Hua.

Wen Hua did not respond.

Her stomach was cramping in waves, and the pain made her brow furrow.

Fu Shishen ignored him and turned to leave with a cold face.

"Shi Shen." Wen Hua suddenly called out to Fu Shi Shen.

"Is there anything else?" Fu Shishen's impatience grew stronger.

"How about we have a child? With a child, I won't be bored," Wen Hua said quietly.

There was a hint of probing in his words.

"I've been very busy lately and haven't had time to think about this," Fu Shishen said coldly.

Wen Hua didn't say anything more.

The news of her pregnancy was even more difficult to bring up in such a conversation.

Fu Shishen was about to say something when the phone rang again. He took his phone out of his suit pocket and turned to answer it.

Wen Hua didn't linger, afraid that Fu Shishen would notice her unusual behavior.

Soon, she went back to the kitchen.

In the kitchen, a clay pot was simmering with seafood porridge, bubbling gently and emitting a faint fishy smell, which suddenly made me feel nauseous.

She covered it, enduring the pain.

Seafood porridge was Fu Shishen's favorite.

She doesn't like it.

Yet, during the seven years of their marriage, she was still able to enjoy meals with him.

Because in Wen Hua's world, only Fu Shishen remains.

Fu Shishen was everything to her. She devoted herself to their marriage, enduring all kinds of grievances, but Wen Hua never said a word.

Occasionally, when Fu Shishen softened his tone towards Wen Hua, she would feel that her marriage was filled with honey, sweet beyond measure.

So sweet, yet deadly.

The fact that she and Fu Shishen had no children became a stain in the eyes of the Fu family.

The disdainful looks from the Fu family members stung Wen Hua every time.

But she did have children once, only they are gone...

Her chaotic thoughts made Wen Hua somewhat distracted.
