Chapter 1521: Chapter 1520: Your Little Troublemaker

Gu Tong has always been in good health, never experiencing anything like this.

But now, she couldn’t tolerate even a hint of that fishy smell and actually started vomiting.

Xia Xi brought over a glass of water and said, "Drink some water to calm down. Your little troublemaker at home is really good at tiring people out. All day you’ve only had two or three bites of porridge, and nothing else has been touched. This can’t continue."

Originally, they were chatting just fine, and Gu Tong was feeling alright.

But suddenly, the discomfort came, and she couldn’t stop vomiting.

Li Yan felt a bit tender-hearted and asked, "Do you feel like eating anything?"

If you don’t eat for a long time, you’ll get malnourished. You really need to find a way to eat.

It’s just that Li Yan didn’t know what Gu Tong wanted to eat or what she should eat.

It’s said that pregnant women experience taste changes, but who knows if that’s true.

Gu Tong pursed her lips and said, "I just want some sour candied hawthorn..."

Candied hawthorn is considered sour.

Right now, she just wants to eat something sour enough to make your teeth ache.

It feels like it might suppress this nauseating feeling.

"That’s a good sign! I’ve heard people say, what’s it called again... oh, ’sour for a boy, spicy for a girl.’ You’re definitely having a son."

Li Yan frowned and said, "Having a son or daughter isn’t important. The key is that you haven’t eaten anything besides candied hawthorn; can your stomach handle that?"

Gu Tong rarely acts spoiled; she pouted and said, "I don’t want anything else."

Li Yan: "..."

Xia Xi: "..."

A certain assistant: "..."

Alright, you’re the pregnant one; you call the shots.

The assistant quickly caught on and said, "Then I’ll go buy the lady some candied hawthorn. There’s a snack shop nearby that sells all kinds of treats."

Xia Xi thought about it and said, "While you’re at it, buy some other sour things too; as long as they’re sour, just buy some."

"Sure, sure, sure."

The assistant agreed quickly; after a few words, he hurried out of the ward to go buy snacks for Gu Tong.

Gu Tong vomited for a bit more, and then finally felt somewhat relieved and said, "How did everything go for you today?"

Under normal circumstances, Li Yan should be at the company handling some matters today.

Li Yan pursed his lips and said, "I didn’t go to the company."

"Why not?" Gu Tong was a bit surprised.

After all, it was already a set plan, so changing it last minute doesn’t really make sense.

Moreover, Li Yan isn’t the type to go back on his word; once something is set, unless there’s an extremely special situation, he never changes it last minute.

Li Yan didn’t explain much and said, "There’s not much going on at the company; most things are just waiting to be dealt with, so I don’t need to handle them personally."

He’s not a pretentious person, but he also doesn’t wish to tell his wife everything he’s done. If he did, it would come off as seeking praise, so he’d rather not say and let things happen naturally.

Li Yan didn’t say, but Gu Tong could guess; they are husband and wife, after all. She understands him.

Yet Li Yan didn’t say a word, and Gu Tong didn’t expose him. Li Yan affectionately took her hand, and the other hand massaged her back.

Xia Xi watched the two of them being lovey-dovey, eating a bunch of "dog food" without even realizing.

She couldn’t help but think of her own Demon King; if only he were here, she wouldn’t just be watching others flaunt their affection.

Xia Xi changed the subject and asked, "By the way, Li Family branch purchased the program on Channel Three, right?" She picked up the remote control and opened the TV, ready to switch channels.

It’s not the Internet era now; people get information a bit slower. The branch’s new phone model launch needs promotion, and besides newspapers and influential magazines, they’ve decisively chosen TV advertisements as well.
