Chapter 260

Rong Dai: Shao Ting, Miss Qiao is pregnant. She finally got Zhou Jing\'s answer today.

Seeing her message, Huo Shao Ting\'s mouth corners involuntarily rose up, forming a shallow arc. His eyes were full of unrestrained tenderness, and all the exhaustion was gone.

He understood her meaning and immediately texted back: As your husband, I still need to work harder. I will definitely do my best when I get back, striving to fulfill my wife\'s wish as soon as possible.

Sitting on the sofa, Rong Dai saw his response. Her charming face revealed an annoyed expression, but her heart was filled with sweetness and longing.

He had only been away for a few days, yet she already missed him immensely.

After chatting for a while, Huo Shao Ting had to get back to work, so they stopped messaging.

After ending the chat with Huo Shao Ting, Lu Nianzhi called.

"What\'s the matter, Sister Nianzhi?"

Lu Nianzhi seemed to be jogging on her end, slightly out of breath: "I was worried you might forget tomorrow\'s wine reception, so I wanted to remind you. I\'ll come pick you up at 4pm tomorrow afternoon."

After acknowledging Lu Nianzhi, Rong Dai ended the call. She then went to her wardrobe to pick out clothes for tomorrow and reviewed the questions she might be asked. Only after that did she go to wash up and rest.

The next morning after getting up, washing up, and having breakfast, Rong Dai went to the embroidery room to work.

Her designs were novel, and her embroidery skills exquisite.

Although time was tight, she did not cut any corners. She would rather miss the deadline than produce shoddy work.

Early in the morning, Qiao Wanzhou went straight to the hospital to accompany Zhou Jing. After the doctor came in for rounds, she quietly went to get a pregnancy test done.

Seeing the results, she grabbed the report, wanting to run and tell Zhou Jing the news. But looking at the report, she immediately slowed down to small steps instead.

"Zhou Jing!"

Back in the hospital room, Zhou Jing\'s manager was also present. Seeing her red-rimmed eyes, he instantly fell silent.

The news these two had caused in the past few days was already giving him a huge headache!

Fortunately, they had come together now. As for the online commentary, they planned to hold a press conference.

"Why are you crying again? Did you run into reporters?"

Seeing her teary eyes, Zhou Jing\'s heart clenched again.

He owed her a debt he could never repay in this lifetime.

Qiao Wanzhou shook her head, tears streaming down nonstop, but she did not speak.

Her appearance frightened Zhou Jing badly. He struggled to sit up in bed but accidentally tumbled down instead.

"Be careful!"

The manager was exasperated. He quickly went to help Zhou Jing up and settled back in bed.

"I...I\'m pregnant."

After getting Zhou Jing comfortable, Qiao Wanzhou finally said in a trembling voice, holding up the test report.

Zhou Jing froze instantly. It took him several seconds to react to what she had said.

"Wanzhou, is this...is this true?"

Qiao Wanzhou nodded, her beautiful eyes brimming with tears.

"I..." Zhou Jing was also overcome with joy and could not speak coherently. He hurriedly reached for her hand as the manager pushed a chair over for her to sit down.

These two really were...quiet when quiet, astounding when they spoke!

The two gazed intensely at each other, Zhou Jing gripping her hand. After a few seconds, he finally said, "Once I\'m discharged from the hospital, I\'ll contact Uncle and Auntie right away."

She had waited twelve years for him. Even if the Qiao family disagreed, he would still do this.

He would strive to obtain the Qiao family\'s consent. She was so dutiful and righteous. He could not let her become unfilial because of him.

No matter how difficult it was with the Qiaos, he had to resolve it.

It was his responsibility.

He could not let Wanzhou lose her natal family because of him. That was the place she had lived for nearly thirty years. He could not take away the place where she had once lived.

That would be too cruel to Wanzhou.

Wanzhou would compromise for his sake, but he knew she would be heartbroken.

Qiao Wanzhou also gripped his hand, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Let\'s not worry about that for now. We\'ll discuss it after you\'re discharged from the hospital."

When Rong Dai told her last night, she still could not quite believe it. But it turned out to be true after all!

In the hospital room, the two gazed at each other with great affection. The manager felt his teeth aching from the sweetness and tactfully left.

After finishing her morning\'s work, Rong Dai personally cooked lunch. After eating and taking a short nap, she got up to wash up and get ready.

Once she had changed into an evening gown for the reception, Lu Nianzhi happened to arrive at her door.

After picking up Rong Dai, the two headed to the private wine reception.

The venue was a private villa, a fusion of Chinese and Western architecture. Stepping inside, one could instantly smell the fragrances of flowers and wine.

Lu Nianzhi brought Rong Dai to meet her friend.

"Rong Dai, this is Mr. He Zhengli. His vineyard produces very famous red wine."

"Old He, this is Ms. Rong that I told you about before."

Lu Nianzhi was dressed practical and intellectual as always today. The lace sleeves added a touch of femininity, introducing the two in a graceful and casual manner.

Rong Dai had applied light, natural makeup that made her features appear more defined and delicate. Her innate nobility and elegance shone through.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. He."

Tall Rong Dai bent down slightly, taking the initiative to extend her hand.

He Zhengli was nearing fifty, but was impeccably groomed and looked to be only in his forties.

"Ms. Rong, I\'ve heard a lot about you. I\'m finally meeting you in person today."

He Zhengli smiled broadly, barely touching Rong Dai\'s hand before letting go.

"Pardon my intrusion. Not knowing Mr. He\'s hobbies besides red wine, I happened to have several aged teas at home. Please accept them, Mr. He!"

As Rong Dai spoke, she passed over a prepared gift box.

She would not have done this at a large reception.

But Lu Nianzhi had said this was a small private gathering. Although Nianzhi had made arrangements, Rong Dai knew from her experience as queen in her past life the basic etiquette for socializing.

There was a good old Chinese saying: courtesy demands reciprocity.

With courtesy, relationships can develop!

He Zhengli did not stand on ceremony, accepting the tea. He then led the two into the winery.

They had arrived a bit early, so there were not many people in the winery yet. But the prepared fine wines, pastries and delicacies filled the air with tempting aromas.

"Ha Wei hasn\'t arrived yet. Let\'s sit here for a while. People from Brocade Embroidery Workshop may come later too."

Lu Nianzhi carried a glass of champagne with Rong Dai to sit in a corner, lowering her voice to say.

Rong Dai loved the aroma of champagne. She held it under her nose for a light sniff, her beautiful eyes surveying the reception venue.

She was not curious at all if Brocade Embroidery Workshop showed up.

Since they could come, why couldn\'t Brocade Embroidery Workshop?

Moreover, Brocade Embroidery Workshop had worked with TK for many years. Failing to secure TK\'s first fashion show in China this time had already impacted Brocade Embroidery Workshop negatively.

If they did not win the competition this time either, Brocade Embroidery Workshop\'s reputation would certainly suffer. So it was unsurprising they would attend this reception.
