Chapter 3775: A New Addition (391)


She paid the bill and was led to the private room by the service staff. Pus.h.i.+ng the door open, she saw a group of people sitting in the private room. When they saw her, one of them stood up and came over. “Chu He, right? I’m Aixue, the one who introduced you into the chat group!”


They met during the prenatal checkup. After that, she added Chu He to the WeChat group. However, they had not seen each other since then. Although Aixue had suggested that they went for prenatal checkups together, their timings did not match, so they hadn’t met up again.


“Come, sit down! Everyone’s been waiting for you!”


Chu He sat down and asked curiously, “Did no one pay on my behalf? Luckily, I have some money in my WeChat. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to enter.”


The women looked at each other.


Aixue immediately asked, “Who’s in charge of paying?”


Everyone turned to look at a woman sitting in the corner. The latter smiled and said, “Hey, I thought she wouldn’t come! So I didn’t pay for her.”


Chu He replied, “I didn’t say I wasn’t coming. It’s just that we agreed to pay together. You should have paid my share.”


There was nothing wrong with what Chu He said. Since they were paying the bill in advance, they should have settled her share.


When the woman heard this, she became a little odd. She was obviously angered by what Chu He said, but she controlled her anger and retorted, “You speak as if someone is eyeing your 40 yuan! You were late, who would know if you were turning up? It’s just 40 yuan? I’ll transfer it to you.”


“Don’t bother.” Chu He couldn’t be bothered with the money. 40 yuan was not a big amount. It was just a matter of principle and she wanted to make things clear. She was more concerned about principles.


When the woman heard this, she felt even more upset! Chu He made it sound like she was being calculative!


Aixue immediately tried to smooth things over, “Aiya, let’s talk about settling the bill later. However, Chu He, you’re really too much. You actually forgot about today’s gathering. I have to criticize you for this.”


Chu He smiled. “I’ve been staying at home to take care of my pregnancy. I forgot the date. I thought today was Friday.”


“Aren’t you working?”


Chu He replied, “No, I’m not working.”


“Eh, you’re only five months pregnant now. I was still working when I was five months pregnant.”


Chu He said, “I used to work as a police officer. Because I’m pregnant, I can’t go on missions, so I applied for maternity leave.”


“Aiya…” Everyone sighed, “Civil servants are fortunate!”


“That’s right. When I was pregnant, I applied for maternity leave with the supervisor. In the end, the supervisor said that I could only apply for maternity leave after eight months. So I worked eight months before staying home to rest.”


“Aw, me too. I used to work as a customer service officer. I had to stare at the computer screen every day, and I had to engage with those clients over trivial issues. It was really annoying.”


“I’m so envious of Chu He, resting at home. Doesn’t your husband say anything about that?”


Chu He did not understand. “What would he say?”


“For example, staying at home all day, not working, not earning money, and not doing ch.o.r.es.”


Chu He pursed her lips. Resting at home was what Gu Jinglian wanted her to do. Actually, she had already quit her job. Gu Jinglian had forced her to stop work as a police officer. She thought about it and felt that the salary was really not worth much to Gu Jinglian. In addition, she was pregnant with twins, and that was really important to everyone in the Gu household. Hence, she agreed to stay at home so that they wouldn’t worry. The fact that she was resting was a great relief to Butler Fu.
