Chapter 70

Once the two people finished, Guan Zhiyi's body was exhausted.
After taking a shower, Qi Chengyan lay beside her, stroking her hair.
"You're going to stay in Shanghai for how many days?" Guan Zhiyi asked in a low voice as she nestled in his arms, all weak and no strength.
"I have to leave the day after tomorrow."
"I see."Guan Zhiyi said,"But I have to be at the set from afternoon till night tomorrow."
"It's okay, just do your thing, don't worry about me."
"Alright...."
Qi Chengyan: "Did you meet with Xiaoran recently?"
"Him? Yes I did, our production team is staying in the same hotel." The moment she finished saying these words, her eyes opened at once,"Did you see those news?"
He always paid close attention to all the news related to her, so the news about her and Xiao Ran being pictured together naturally will not escape his eyes.
Qi Chengyan: "I saw it, wasn't it even got into the hot search?"
"Uh…. Those pictures were taken by fans, but marketing accounts stole it and turned them into such nonsense."
Qi Chengyan knew there was nothing between the two people, but seeing that there are still many people who adore this CP and even write paragraphs of fabricated stories in spite of everything, was making his eyes hurt.
"Huh? Brother." Guan Zhiyi said, looking up at him and reaching out her hand to pinch his face,"You can't possibly come running to Shanghai because of this, do you?"
Qi Chengyan let out a coughing sound,"I came because I have a job here."
"Oh~"
Qi Chengyan pinched her face back, "What? Do I look like I'm a jealous person in your eyes?"
Guan Zhiyi said ambiguously, "It's not like you haven't done this before......"
With narrowed eyes, Qi Chengyan lowered his head, shutting her mouth and hooked her tongue.
Touching like this, he could not help but kiss her for a while yet again, he kissed till his body was burning with eagerness. Guan Zhiyi sensed his reaction and immediately arched her back to retreat, she let out a kitten-like plea,"No more…"
Their tossing a moment ago lasted for a long time, she didn't dare to repeat it again.
Qi Chengyan lay on his side and looked at her, her eyes were still red from crying hard earlier.
Thereupon, he showed her a little compassion, saying slowly after some time,"I won't mess with you, go to sleep."
Guan Zhiyi: "Oh, but you haven't eaten yet. "
"Don't mind me, I'll order a take-out."
"Okay then."
"Do you want to eat anything? I'll order some for you too."
Guan Zhiyi shook her head, pulled the blanket up high, and stammered, "I'm not hungry, tired, want to sleep."
Qi Chengyan smiled, patting her head, "Fine."
At ten o'clock in the morning the next day, when Guan Zhiyi woke up Qi Chengyan was no longer in bed. She dazedly got up from the bed and went to the bathroom to wash up.
After looking around she found Qi Chengyan in his study. He was in the middle of videoconference in front of his computer.
Perhaps because he heard the noise from her footsteps, he raised his eyes as she entered the door, Guan Zhiyi saw him looking over, and promptly took a step back so as not to disturb his talk with the other side about business matters.
"I put the breakfast on the dining table, eat some to fill your stomach first." He suddenly opened his mouth.
Guan Zhiyi froze, and inside the screen, dozens of subordinates were all now staring at their own boss.
Qi Chengyan, however, did not feel anything was wrong. Seeing her standing there blankly, he asked, "What's wrong, you don't like to eat that?"
Although she still didn't know what the breakfast was yet, Guan Zhiyi hurriedly shook her head.
But her head shaking made Qi Chengyan think that she doesn't like the food, so he took off one of his earphones and said,"Give me ten minutes, I'll get you something else."
Guan Zhiyi opened her mouth, wanting to say that was not what she meant. However, with how there were other people on his side, she found it hard to speak and had no choice but to quickly leave the study.
After Qi Chengyan saw her walking out, he put the earphones back on and looked at the screen.
And at this moment, every single executive inside the screen has a dumbstruck look, the expression on their boss' face just now is too gentle, isn't it….they sure have never known that he actually can speak in such a tone too.
"Don't like to eat that?", "I'll get you something else."
Did he also personally cook that?
Come on, who can make him act like this, it must be the girlfriend that appeared on the news!
The executives' hearts were all excited, aching to consume the gossip, yet they didn't dare to show even the slightest of it on their face.
"What are you staring at?" Qi Chengyan frowned, "Marketing department, carry on with the talk."
The marketing department director came back to his senses and at once said,"Ah, Okay, President Qi."

Qi Chengyan time management was very accurate, the meeting ended exactly ten minutes later.
The moment he came out from the study, Guan Zhiyi was sitting at the dining table eating something.
"I thought you didn't like the food? Why don't you wait for me."
"I'm not saying I didn't like it. I said I don't dislike the food."Guan Zhiyi took a sip of milk and said, "Just now there were a lot of people on your side, I was embarrassed to talk."
Qi Chengyan sat next to her before saying, "What is there to be embarrassed about?"
"You were in a meeting…"
"It's okay, they're all our own people."Qi Chengyan held his hand out to rub the crumbs off the side of her mouth,"And you're their boss's wife, will they dare to have any opinion if you talk?"
Boss's wife….
A smile formed on Guan Zhiyi's eyes, she said while looking down,"I got it!"
At twelve o'clock, Liu Yun came to pick her up, Guan Zhiyi returned to the set for filming while Qi Chengyan went to work. Guan Zhiyi is very busy, so Qi Chengyan didn't go to the set and bother her, he directly went back after his work ended.
A month later, there was still a week left before she completed filming.
This afternoon, Guan Zhiyi still hasn't come out of the waiting room even after she finished eating lunch from the production team. Mao Mao waited outside for a while and still hadn't seen her figure, so she went in to look for her, as a result, she found Guan Zhiyi vomiting in the bathroom.
"Sister Zhiyi! What's happened to you?"
Guan Zhiyi rinsed her mouth with water, "My stomach feels uncomfortable."
"Are you okay? Is it serious? Let's go check it at the hospital first."
Afraid of delaying the production team, Guan Zhiyi said,"The director's side…."
"I'll tell sister Liu Yun and ask her to notify them."Maomao said,"Your health is important, you haven't had any proper rest recently, you'd better go see a doctor to check."
"Alright....."
Mao Mao helped her go out, as she was leaving, she pulled a padded jacket and put it on her. "It's freezing today. Don't catch a cold."
"Um."
In the end, Guan Zhiyi went to the hospital accompanied by Maomao and Liu Yun. After thorough examinations, there was indeed a problem with her stomach, the doctor prescribed her medicine before she left the hospital.
On the way back, she received a call from Qi Chengyan. With her body all huddled up in the large padded jacket, she whined like a baby at him.
But when she heard Qi Chengyan anxiously say he's going to fly over, she immediately stopped her miserable little complaint,"I just rambled nonsense to you…. doctor had prescribed me medicine. I'm fine."
Qi Chengyan was still worried about her,"I've kept telling you before, don't diet all the time, you never eat on time, do you think your stomach can handle all that?"
Guan Zhiyi pouted her lips,"Can you not lecture me?"
Hearing her weak voice, Qi Chengyan felt both angry and distressed,"You'll finish filming in one week, right?"
"Yeah...."
"I'm coming over tomorrow and I can go back together with you then."
"No, you don't have to, really!"Guan Zhiyi said, "It's just a small thing, I'll go back soon, I'll find you as soon as I return, okay?"
Qi Chengyan: "I'm still not at ease even if you said so…"
"In that case, contact Liu Yun and have her report to you every day."Guan Zhiyi said, "She is your subordinate, she won't dare lie to you."
After that, Guan Zhiyi had to persuade for a while, before at long last dispelling Qi Chengyan's thought to fly over.
A week later, the filming ended, she went to the airport with the staff to return back.
Before boarding the plane, Liu Yun hurried over and held a phone towards Guan Zhiyi's face,"Zhiyi, whose padded jacket did you wear to the hospital the other day? So fluffy."
Not understanding what she was talking about, Guan Zhiyi asked,"What?"
"See it for yourself."
Guan Zhiyi took the phone, lowered her eyes and looked at it, on the screen, she was presented with dramatic and bold headline: Guan Zhiyi Is Suspected To be Pregnant
This headline can easily make people frightened…..
The article was more or less about someone revealing that Guan Zhiyi has morning sickness on the set, and pictures of her going to hospital are spreading around. In the pictures, she was often seen protecting her stomach with her hands, wearing a large padded jacket that covered her belly….
Once she's done reading everything, Guan Zhiyi felt perplexed,"This news....is too ridiculous."
Liu Yun: "There's nothing new going on in the circle these days, this reporter sure is trying really hard."
Guan Zhiyi laughed helplessly,"Those people really have nothing to do, it even get into hot search….am I going to pull a child out ten months later?"
Liu Yun: "You also can work hard, if you'd like to."
"If I really do give birth, the one who'll be crying is you, my great agent."
"...."
In this circle, there's bound to be a lot of groundless gossip, so neither Guan Zhiyi nor Liu Yun paid much attention to the news. Moreover, they're going to board a plane soon and can't take care of this matter now, they thought they could just post a clarification on Weibo when the plane landed.
However, the same cannot be said for those who are still clueless in the imperial capital. Guan Yuanbai almost jumped off the sofa when he saw the news at home.
"What's going on…."
Even though he knew that the news on the internet might not necessarily be true, he still felt a little uneasy. So he immediately made a call to Guan Zhiyi, but her phone was turned off.
With how much Guan Yuanbai worries about Guan Zhiyi, there's no way he could just brush it off. Thus, he directly went out to find Qi Chengyan. By chance, he just contacted Qi Chengyan a moment ago, that guy is currently at his home.
When Guan Yuanbai entered Qi's family house, Qi Chengyan was chatting with Elder Qi, Guan Yuanbai politely greeted Elder Qi before saying to Qi Chengyan, "Something's up, come out for a moment."
Qi Chengyan still hadn't seen the news nor aware of what's going on, so he followed him and asked once they reached the door, "What's the matter?"
Guan Yuanbai turned around, composedly said,"Xiaowu is pregnant?"
Qi Chengyan was absolutely not expecting him to say that, he froze, "Who said that."
"News."
Twisting his eyebrows, Qi Chengyan took out his phone and rummaged through it.
Guan Yuanbai was immediately relieved to see that Qi Chengyan had no idea about it,"Looks like it's not true, that scared the hell out of me, I was about to bury you alive."
"......"
Qi Chengyan did not utter a word.
Seeing that he kept staring at the phone on his hand without saying anything, Guan Yuanbai's smile gradually disappear,"What's with your expression?"
Qi Chengyan smoothed his lower lips, raising his eyes to look at Guan Yuanbai,"Actually…. I'm not really sure whether it's true or not."
"???"
