When Xue Xue opened her eyes again, the first picture she saw was the white ceiling.
She moved her sour and stiff body, and when she blinked her eyes, she saw Lu Zhou who was sitting on the edge of the bed and taking a nap.
Lu Zhou woke up when he noticed that Xue Xue was moving. In other words, he didn't really fall asleep at all.
"Lu…"
Xue Xue opened her mouth, only to realize that her throat was so dry and painful. Lu Zhou also seemed to notice it. After helping her to sit up, he quickly poured a glass of water from the small coffee table beside the bed.
"Drink slowly, don't be in a hurry."
Even though she heard what he said, Xue Xue drank the water all at once.
Then, she turned her head to look at Lu Zhou, and from the beginning, she stared at her man with a very intriguing gentle gaze.
"This is the hospital." Xue Xue had an epiphany in her mind, and she had her guesses, but before she was made sure of it, she still asked cautiously. "What's wrong with me…?"
The girl's eyes were red, and the tip of her nose was also red. She was unspeakably pitiful and cute. Lu Zhou's eyes were even more soft after seeing them.
"It's okay, you're alright." Lu Zhou took her cold hand and said soothingly. "You're just… Xue Xue, you're pregnant."
The man spoke very slowly and every words were clear, but together, it became a sentence that Xue Xue couldn't understand.
Pregnant?
Her eyes widened little by little.
Lu Zhou suddenly sighed.
"I know it's hard for you to believe, but…" Lu Zhou's voice was soft and low, and his big hands that wrapped around Xue Xue's hands were warm and powerful. "Xue Xue, I want to ask, are you willing to marry me?"
After learning about the pregnancy from the doctor, he also thought a lot. It could be said that this was a completely unexpected thing, whether it was for Xue Xue or for Lu Zhou.
He never thought that when he was forty years old, a new life would suddenly pop up, and the person who would give birth to this new life was the ex-girlfriend of his son, a girl who broke into his life in an unexpected manner .
However, after all his thoughts settled down, Lu Zhou found that he did not reject it at all.
With regard to having another child, the fact that the mother of this child was Xue Xue gave him a surprising joy.
Moreover, Lu Zhou discovered that the idea to get married came in his mind suddenly.
There was not much hesitation.
Unlike Lu Zhou in the previous life who gave Xue Keyue two choices. In this life, Lu Zhou only said one sentence of such to Xue Xue.
After a long, painful silence, Xue Xue finally refocused on the face of the man in front of her.
It was a very good looking face. The years did not kill his charm, but instead carved out an incomparable grace for him.
Such a man, with such a tone, such a gesture, when he proposed to any woman, no one would be able to resist it.
However, what Xue Xue gave after thinking about his proposal was not an answer, but another question.
"Lu Zhou, do you love me?"

Lin Yijia came to visit after learning that Xue Xue was pregnant.
As a god sister.
The two talked very speculatively and very happily. They didn't focus much on the fact that the child's father was Lu Zhou, but around the child itself.
"By the way, Xue Xue…"
Xue Xue looked up from the catalog of baby products and looked at Lin Yijia who was hesitant to speak.
"Sister Yijia, do you want to ask about Lu Yao? If so, I'm sorry, it was Lu Zhou's decision, and I can't intervene."
Regarding Lu Zhou's "punishment" on Lu Yao, Xue Xue had learned a little bit from Lu Zhou's phone call to Wen Bin, but the man obviously didn't want her to be in touch with these things, and Xue Xue was also happy.
To be honest, since meeting Lu Yao that day and stabbing Lu Yao viciously, Xue Xue felt that her whole person's heart had broadened, just like when the sky had cleared after a storm and the dark clouds had passed by after a rain, she knew all of these were the emotions that belonged to the original owner, and it was the last love and hatred for Lu Yao that remained in this body.
After venting out, it then disappeared.
Xue Xue felt free, and she didn't bother to pay more attention to Lu Yao, a man who had she had no feelings for.
Instead, Lin Yijia was stunned after hearing Lu Yao's name.
"I know, I didn't come to intercede for him." Then, she heard her solemnly say. "He did something wrong in this matter, he deserves it."
Xue Xue glanced at Lin Yijia in surprise, and found that the woman seemed different from the original owner's memory.
Didn't it say in her memory that Lin Yijia love Lu Yao to the end?
Looking at Xue Xue's eyes, Lin Yijia probably knew what she was thinking. After all, she had kicked Xue Xue to successfully "ascend to the throne" not long ago, and she and Lu Yao talked about marriage with the media.
But now…
Should it be said that the wheels of fortune had turned around and it was a retribution?
"I discovered something recently." Lin Yijia waved her hand. "Well, let's not talk about him, Xue Xue, I actually have another thing to ask you…"
"Huh?"
If it was not because of Lu Yao, Xue Xue really didn't think that Lin Yijia had anything else to ask her.
"That is, Xue Xue, you are an orphan, right?"
Xue Xue was taken aback but then nodded.
The calm appearance made Lin Yijia even more difficult to express what she wanted to say.
Although nothing had been determined yet, she still resisted the churning emotions and asked. "Then… would you want to find your family?"
This question really knocked Xue Xue down.
She was almost instinctively about to shake her head, but suddenly she was blessed with the thought of what the system had said at the beginning.
"I thought about it." She restrained her instincts and whispered in a tone that was both sad and forcefully pretending to be indifferent. "However, I don't want to anymore."
"They could leave me in the orphanage back then, probably, they just don't want me."
"Since they don't want me anymore, then, what's the point of me looking for them?"
