Capítulo 1352: Chapter 1350: [Special Episode] Wedding (87)

She raised her hand, gently stroking her still-flat belly, “In the past, we never had children because we were always focused on work. As a result… the doctor told me that taking too many contraceptive pills affected my body, and I might never be able to get pregnant. This time, it’s completely a gift from heaven. Now I just hope to safely give birth to this child and raise them well; nothing else is important anymore.”

Gu Shi smiled and supported her arm.

“Congratulations to you both. I think he will definitely be a healthy little guy.”

“Mmm.” The editor-in-chief returned her smile, “Gu Shi, you’re not young anymore either. You should consider life’s major events.”

Gu Shi lowered her gaze, “I don’t have your good fortune!”

The editor-in-chief held her hand and led her to sit on the sofa.

“Although you haven’t been at the magazine for long, I really admire you. As far as I know, quite a few people are pursuing you.” The editor-in-chief raised her lips, observing her for a moment, “In your heart… there must be someone, right?”

“This!”

Gu Shi was a little flustered.

Since joining the magazine, the editor-in-chief had been very attentive to her, from her start to her getting the hang of it now, the editor-in-chief had given her great trust and help.

In her heart, Gu Shi also saw the editor-in-chief as a sister and a mentor.

Now being seen through, she just felt a little embarrassed.

“I’m not trying to pry into your privacy.” The editor-in-chief raised her hand to straighten her hair, “I just want to offer a suggestion. Actually… you don’t always have to wait for a guy to pursue you. If you like someone, you should take the initiative to pursue him. Let me tell you, I pursued my husband first!”

“Really?” Gu Shi raised her face, “Then… how did you do it?”

“At that time, he was the top student in the school, and there were many girls after him. I was also afraid, insecure… How could I, with no chance against the school beauty, stand a chance? Later, until graduation was approaching, we went out for a farewell dinner, and everyone was paired up except for us. He offered to walk me home. When he was leaving, I thought if I didn’t say anything, I might never have the chance. What the heck, at worst, he’d just reject me. So I called out to him and said, ‘Since you’re single too, why don’t we just make do with each other!'”

Gu Shi laughed, “And what did he say?”

“He said…” The editor-in-chief beamed brilliantly, “Sure!”

Gu Shi was immediately filled with envy, “That’s wonderful.”

“Later, he told me that he had actually liked me for a long time, but thought I never looked at him directly, and assumed I wasn’t interested in him.” The editor-in-chief spread her hands, self-deprecatingly, “Look at me like this; I don’t even measure up to half of your looks or figure, and I succeeded. So why don’t you give it a try?”

“I…” Gu Shi lowered her face, “I’m different from you. Your husband liked you, but… the person I like… it’s impossible for us to be together.”

“Is he… married?”

Gu Shi shook her head.

“Has a girlfriend?”

Gu Shi shook her head.

“Have you confessed?”

Gu Shi shook her head again.

“Then how do you know he doesn’t like you?”

“He mentioned it a long time ago.” Gu Shi took a deep breath, controlling her emotions, “Let’s not talk about this. Editor-in-chief, is it still possible to change the cover story for the next issue?”

“Because this issue is a special anniversary edition. I sent the content to headquarters this morning. I heard the cover is Leng Qianyu, and headquarters couldn’t get him for quite a few times, they were thrilled to hear our topic, and decided to sync the Europe edition with ours, all featuring Leng Qianyu, with your interview for the cover story.”
