C29 Mild Depression
Lin Qian did not give me many good things, three years of love, I did my best to love him, and even filial piety to his parents and family, but the gifts or care from him are few.
Although I hadn't known Ou Jia Rui for long, the care and warmth he gave me was even more than what Lin Qian gave me these three years. Originally, I thought that my misfortune should have ended after parting ways with Lin Qian. However, when Ou Jingyi said those words, I realized that I might have made the same mistake again.
It was just that this dream was much better than a dream. It was something that others would willingly indulge in.
I looked at the photos one by one, and only when every picture, every message, and even every record of my conversations had been revisited and everything had been rehearsed in my mind did I fall into a deep sleep with sadness and uneasiness.
In the next few days, the various matters of Ou Jingyi's wedding were settled by me one after another.
Although Ou Jia Rui was willing to spend a great amount of money for this wedding, it did not mean that it was something worth paying attention to. The signatures of the people on the invitation card were all printed on the card by me while holding Ou Jia Rui's personal seal. During this process, Central European Jing Yi and Lin Qian had never participated in this before.
My job was basically over. All that was left was to organize the events on the day of the wedding and sit around and wait for my own payment.
In the meantime, I had offered to move out several times, but had been stubbornly rejected by O'Jia Rui.
I can only continue to stay in the Ou Family for the time being, holed up in my room all day and unwilling to go out.
Before I knew it, more than a month had passed, and the time for my second pregnancy test with the doctor had come again. This was my first child, and probably the only child in my life, so I had to be very careful with him.
I insisted on going to the maternity exam alone because I was worried about the fact that Ozara had been exposed to the media for her paternity test.
"I don't care how the media writes it. If you really don't want to implicate me, then wouldn't it be even more disadvantageous for me if the public knew that the child in your womb was me and even filmed you doing the pregnancy test alone?" Ojairi succeeded in persuading me.
In the same place, the chief physician, I could tell from her gentle attitude and careful admonition that the person who leaked the news was not the person who was as warm as my mother.
I can see that your husband has taken great care of you, and he seems to have gained a lot of weight recently. However, you still have to remember to exercise for a bit, so that when the time comes, you will be able to bear less pain. I nodded repeatedly and regretted that I had been cooped up in my room for so many days.
The doctor suddenly said to me, "You should go out and rest first. I'll talk to your husband about some matters. There's a lounge next door, and it's much better than my room."
I nodded and walked out of the room, but I was already suspicious. Last time, I told Ou Jia Rui in front of me about the things I needed to pay attention to, but this time the doctor wanted to specifically move me away. I was afraid that something was wrong with the baby, so I stood by the door and secretly listened to what was happening inside.
"Doctor, if you sent my wife away, what did you have to say to her?" I was surprised that Ocari had been so natural when he called me his wife.
The doctor nodded. "Mr. Ou, the baby is in good condition. I didn't lie just now." I felt a little relieved.
Ou Jia Rui continued to ask, "Is there a problem with Yao Yao?"
"The results showed that Miss Zhou appeared to be slightly depressed. From the conversation, I could clearly feel that although she was in good health, but her mental state was not good. Did something bad happen recently?"
Since she didn't know that Ou Jingyi had told me about her past, to Ou Jia Rui's knowledge, I shouldn't be unhappy at all.
"Nothing, could it be because of some physiological reason?"
"I don't think so. Antenatal depression usually occurs a month before pregnancy, but Miss Zhou showed up two months ago, even more serious than those eight or nine months of pregnant women. I have also seen some news recently, could it be that Mr. Ou is very busy at work, is it because of some negative news about the two of you recently that made Miss Zhou in a bad mood?"
"What you said makes sense, but she has never said these things, or showed any obvious displeasure, so I didn't care. Or was I careless? Then doctor, what can I do to alleviate her condition?" Ou Jia Rui seemed to be in a hurry.
"Right now, there are no big problems. You just need to take Miss Zhou and relax her mind. Try your best to not let her know anything that would harm you. Maintaining a happy mood will naturally recover." The doctor patiently answered and added, "It would be helpful to add a bit more vitamins. Do you think I should prescribe some medicine to Miss Zhou, or do you want a healthier diet?"
"Eat as much as you can. Try your best not to let Yao Yao know of your current situation. Thank you very much." Ou Jia Rui and the doctor exchanged a few more pleasantries before preparing to leave.
I hurried to the waiting room and pretended not to hear anything.
"Let's go." O'Jarry picked up the coat I was holding and draped it over my shoulder.
"Oh, okay. What did the doctor just tell you?" I asked tentatively.
"The doctor said I took good care of you," he said in a relaxed tone. "It's just that I still need you to add more vitamins to increase your immunity, and I also want you to do more happy things. Don't be too tired, and help lay the foundation for the future."
But it was because he was so relaxed that my mood became heavier.
When I got home, the first thing I did was go to the fridge to find some fruits. I took out an apple and was about to take a bite when Ou Jia Rui snatched it away: "How do you eat it when it's so cold?" Then he told the servant to make me more healthy vegetables and fruit salad when I was free, and to keep the other meals as usual.
While waiting for the servants to start cooking, I sat on the sofa with Ochira and watched TV on both sides.
When the doorbell rang, I subconsciously thought it was Ou Jingyi. I had already prepared the principle of "We will fight when the enemy comes, we will fight when the enemy comes." When the servant brought the visitors in and saw their faces, my head dropped again.
They were Lin Qian's parents. This time, they were dressed in even more luxurious clothing than last time. Now that they were ranked on the Ou Family List, their quality of life must have risen by several levels as well.
Instinctively, I tried to go upstairs, but it was at that moment that Ojira stepped in front of me.
Mother Lin and Father Lin appeared a little flustered. "Director Ou, we came today to discuss something with you." It wasn't Father Lin who spoke first, knowing that they weren't here for me and the child in my belly. I relaxed a little, got up, and went into the dining room to wait for the servants to finish cooking.
Ou Jia Rui politely invited the two of them to sit down. "If Uncle Lin has anything to discuss with me, just make a phone call. I'll have to trouble the two of you to come here."
Lin Qian's mother couldn't help but start a conversation, and her voice even carried a hint of sobbing, "Isn't our family's Lin Qian and Jingjing's wedding coming up in a few days? Who would have thought that such a thing would happen? " Mother Lin cried as she spoke. Ou Jia Rui quickly handed over a few tissues.
"Auntie, don't be in such a hurry. Speak slowly."
Last night, a bunch of hoodlums from society came and beat up our Lin Qian. Our Lin Qian had no other choice, he kept saying that he was Jingjing's fiancé, but in the end, it was him that got beaten up. When our old couple rushed over, our child was beaten black and blue.
Ou Jia Rui frowned slightly: "I will help you investigate the origins of this group of people. It's just that how is Lin Qian's current situation?"
Mother Lin said with tears and snot running down her face, "Skin wounds are a small matter, it's just that Lin Qian's right leg was broken by them, it's probably difficult for him to get out of bed within a month. What do you think we should do now?"
"Then how about we postpone the wedding a little bit, or should I arrange for Lin Qian to not have to walk as much as possible on the day of the wedding?"
Lin Qian's parents were people who cared a lot about face. "How ugly is that? Moreover, the invitation was already sent out. Changing the time might not be an auspicious thing."
While I was still confused about who Lin Qian had offended recently, the servants had already brought the dishes to the table. I didn't care about Lin Qian's condition at all, so I didn't listen to the rest of it and started to eat wholeheartedly. After all, in my heart, only the baby in my stomach was the top priority.
After a long conversation between Ou Jia Rui and Lin Qian's parents, I put down my chopsticks and walked into the living room after hearing the sound of Ou Jia Rui opening the door to see them off.
Ou Jia Rui just returned: "Are you full yet?"
"Yes." You should go and get some food. I'll go for a walk in the garden. "
"Alright, let the servant accompany you."
After a while, the door opened without warning. This time it was Ou Jingyi.
When she saw me, she was also somewhat shocked. "Zhou Xinyao, why are you still here?"
This question of hers made me uncomfortable, but I merely smiled and nodded at her, pretending that I didn't mind at all.
"Why don't we go in and have a chat?" She invited me again.
I thought I'd been walking for a while and followed him into the living room.
As soon as Ou Jia Rui finished eating and was looking at the documents on the sofa, she knew from the voice that it was Ou Jingyi who had come to cause trouble. She didn't even raise her head as she asked, "What do you want now?"
Ou Jingyi wasn't angry at his attitude, she merely asked, "Lin Qian's parents came to find you at home?"
"Yes, Lin Qian was beaten."
It seemed as if Lin Qian being beaten had nothing to do with him. Ou Jingyi sat down next to Ou Jia Rui and said: "These two old things have too many things to do with each other."
