Chapter 359 - 360: Why Take Birth Control Pills?
Speaking of this tattoo.
Xia Yangyang couldn’t help but think about the past.
Xia Yangyang spoke in a flat tone: “Because when Lu Haotian was a teenager, he stole his mum’s hexagonal diamond ring to propose to me, and then got severely beaten once he went back. This incident left a deep impression on me. At that time, it was fashionable to get tattoos, so he got my name tattooed on his body. In a moment of impulsiveness, I got a hexagonal shape tattooed on mine. But these are all things of the past, this tattoo has no meaning to me now. Once we finish shooting this film, I’m definitely going to have it removed.”
Gu Qichen held Xia Yangyang in his arms: “It’s okay, I was just asking. As you said, these are all things of the past, no need to deliberately erase it.”
Gu Qichen was truly sick of his current self.
When did he stoop so low as to care about past misfortunes?
It was Xia Yangyang’s misfortune to have met that scumbag.
But why did he still feel so bitter inside?
He was truly confused.
Besides, if it wasn’t for the betrayal of that good-for-nothing, causing Yangyang to completely give up on him.
How could Xia Yangyang be by his side now?
The Xia Yangyang of today, the Xia Yangyang of the future, belongs to him. That was already enough.
Gu Qichen rubbed at Xia Yangyang’s head: “Okay, go take a bath, you must be tired, and you can rest earlier after you’ve washed.”
Xia Yangyang nodded, stood on her toes and pecked Gu Qichen on the cheek: “Don’t overthink about the tattoo, Only you are in my heart now.”
After finishing her words, she went into the room to take a bath.
A slight smile tugged at the corner of Gu Qichen’s mouth.
He felt as if his previous frustration had evaporated instantaneously.
Gu Qichen, what on earth is going on with you, getting bothered by such trivial matters.
Gu Qichen remained on the balcony for a little while before stepping back into the room.
But his gaze involuntarily fell onto Xia Yangyang’s bag placed on the sofa.
Xia Weiwei’s words suddenly resurfaced in his mind.
Gu Qichen frowned.
He walked straight up to it and opened Xia Yangyang’s handbag.
As expected, he dug out a box of Desogestrel.
Gu Qichen looked at the box.
Indeed, it was a box of contraception pills.
Unconsciously, his heart felt as if it had been slashed by a knife.
Contraception pills, Xia Yangyang has already taken half of them.
Gu Qichen couldn’t describe his feelings.
He only felt that his emotions had been on a roller-coaster in the past few minutes.
When Xia Yangyang came out of the bath, Gu Qichen was sitting on the edge of the bed.
He held a small box in his hand.
Xia Yangyang felt her heart tighten.
It seemed as if she had already predicted something.
Gu Qichen looked solemn. Xia Yangyang walked over: “Ah Chen, what’s the matter?”
Gu Qichen slowly opened his palm: “What is this?”
Xia Yangyang felt a sudden cessation of breath: “Contraception pills.”
“How long have you been taking them?”
“I have been taking them all along, these are long-term contraceptive pills, they don’t harm the body at all.”
Gu Qichen raised his head; his eyes were dark and deep, calm, and emitted an intimidating aura: “Why?”
Xia Yangyang didn’t know why she felt nervous.
But in the end, she said: “I don’t want to have children so early on, I haven’t graduated yet. And I’ve been shooting TV dramas non-stop, and now shooting a movie. If I were to become pregnant, it would be a burden to the film crew.”
Xia Yangyang was telling the truth.
She didn’t not want to have children, she just didn’t want to have them so early.
She knew her grandfather was longing for a grandchild and having to wait was tormenting him.
However, she had her own difficulties…
Gu Qichen looked away.
He didn’t show any change of expression.
But Xia Yangyang could hear a hint of disappointment in his voice.
Gu Qichen calmly said, “Don’t take it anymore, I’ll use a condom next time.”
Xia Yangyang knew, in fact, that Gu Qichen wanted to have a child.
He simply didn’t insist on it because it wasn’t her wish.
Before, they hadn’t used condoms, choosing to let nature take its course.
However, Xia Yangyang knew that given their frequency and Gu Qichen’s capabilities,
If they were really leaving it up to nature, she would have gotten pregnant by now.
Gu Qichen had already lifted the covers and laid down.
Xia Yangyang could sense the icy chill around this man.
He seemed to be somewhat angry.
It was her fault for not telling him in the first place.
Xia Yangyang lay down on the edge of the bed, moved closer to him from behind, and hugged Gu Qichen’s waist, making her body nearly touching his back.
If it were any other day,
Gu Qichen would have already turned around to embrace her.
But today Gu Qichen remained motionless.
With his arms folded across his chest, Xia Yangyang could sense his rigidity.
Gu Qichen, who was motionless initially,
Caught hold of her fidgety hand and asked somewhat angrily, “Xia Yangyang, aren’t you going to sleep?”
Seeing that Gu Qichen had turned his face to her,
Xia Yangyang swiftly squeezed into his arms, “Uncle Gu, are you angry?”
Upon hearing ‘Uncle Gu’, Gu Qichen became even angrier.
Gu Qichen’s handsome face looked stern, “Do you think I am that old in your heart?”
In fact, Xia Yangyang called him that on purpose.
This man was clearly upset with her because of the contraceptive pills and previous tattoo incidents.
But because of his male ego, he would suppress his anger.
Xia Yangyang knew that these words would definitely provoke him.
Somehow, Gu Qichen was always sensitive about being seven years older than her.
Before, whenever Xia Yangyang mocked him by calling him “Uncle”, he would clearly look displeased.
But Xia Yangyang burst out laughing, “Don’t you know Uncle is a nickname? If you don’t like me calling you Uncle, then I will call you, little darling? My little sweetheart?”
Gu Qichen:
Xia Yangyang snuggled deeper into Gu Qichen’s arms, revealing only her head.
The room lights were off.
But the curtains on the floor-to-ceiling windows weren’t closed.
Looking at the soft smiling face in his arms, Gu Qichen felt both annoyed and helplessly amused.
Xia Yangyang traced circles on Gu Qichen’s chest, “Don’t be angry anymore, I know it was my fault for not telling you earlier. I’m also aware that grandpa has always wanted us to have a child. How about we start trying right after I finish shooting for this show? Is that alright?”
By the time the shooting for this show would be over, Xia Yangyang would have also graduated.
He closely inspected that face.
Xia Yangyang had a beautiful face. Especially now, with her makeup removed, her skin looked as enticing as a peeled egg, making one want to take a bite out of it.
Gu Qichen freed one hand and caressed Xia Yangyang’s face, her brows, and her eyes.
He then suddenly asked, “Yangyang, do you love me?”
Xia Yangyang was taken aback, “What’s gotten into you today?”
Gu Qichen was behaving strangely today, asking all sorts of odd questions.
Gu Qichen remained silent.
But Xia Yangyang quickly responded, “Of course, I love you and only you.”
She rarely took to such gushy talk.
Her cheeks flushed reflexively as she spoke the words.
Gu Qichen simply gazed at her fixedly.
Xia Yangyang couldn’t understand what was going on with him.
But she guessed that he must be jealous.
She had witnessed how childish Gu Qichen could become when he was jealous..
