473: He is the love of my life.
Hearing Jiang Yufei's narration, Zheng Mengmeng said with a hint of disbelief, "Yufei, you truly love this man to the bone!
The price you're paying is too great, isn't it? Not only do you have no official status, but you also have to secretly bear his child alone.
Mingli and I both know that before you took a leave of absence without pay, you had already been promoted to a section-level Cadre.
A while ago, you even mentioned that after returning, you wouldn't go back to work within the system and would resign completely. Your sacrifice is too great, isn't it?
It's like a moth flying into a flame, completely reckless. Is it worth it, Yufei?"
Hearing Zheng Mengmeng's question, Jiang Yufei said with determined eyes, "It's worth it. If I can't be with him, my life will be meaningless.
Besides him, I won't love any other man.
If my world doesn't have him in it, it will become a gray world. If that's the case, what meaning does my life have?"
Hearing Jiang Yufei's words, Zheng Mengmeng slapped her forehead and spoke again, "I think you're truly beyond saving. When did you become so obsessed with love?
I remember when we were in college, so many excellent boys pursued you, but you never showed any interest or had a relationship. How did you end up falling so completely for a man now?"
"That's because I met the love of my life."
Jiang Yufei said without hesitation.
"Alright, I really want to see what kind of man makes you so infatuated?"
At this point, Zheng Mengmeng remembered calling Lin Zifeng, so she looked at Jiang Yufei and said apologetically, "Yuxi, I'm sorry!"
"What's wrong, Mengmeng? Why are you apologizing to me for no reason? Are you overworked? If you're tired, go back and rest! I can manage by myself, and besides, the Maternity Matron is here!"
Chen Yuxi said, greatly puzzled.
"No, Yuxi, listen to my explanation. When you went into the delivery room, I heard your cries of pain inside, and I was completely flustered outside.
I was afraid something would happen to you, and you had told me not to call your aunt and uncle.
I knew your phone's unlock password, so I opened your phone, wanting to find a good friend of yours for help. I found the person you talked to the most, the one you only marked with a 'Feng' character.
So I called that person and told him about your situation at the time. He said he would rush over as quickly as possible.
I was a bit muddled with anxiety at the time. Now that I think about it, not only did I pry into your privacy, but I also took it upon myself to notify him to come over. I was truly out of line. Yuxi, please don't blame me, okay?"
After saying this, Zheng Mengmeng looked at Jiang Yufei with an apologetic and somewhat nervous expression, afraid that Jiang Yufei would get angry.
Hearing Zheng Mengmeng's words, Jiang Yufei was stunned. She hadn't expected Zheng Mengmeng to call Lin Zifeng. Knowing that Lin Zifeng would rush over, her heart was filled with joy, and she had no intention of blaming Zheng Mengmeng at all.
Which woman doesn't want her man by her side when she's giving birth? Jiang Yufei was no exception.
It was just that Jiang Yufei was afraid of affecting Lin Zifeng, so she didn't let him come.
Moreover, Zheng Mengmeng had been running around taking care of her for the past two days, and it was all for her good. She had taken care of her a lot over the past six months, so how could she blame Zheng Mengmeng?
So, looking at the apologetic and pitiful Zheng Mengmeng, she smiled faintly and said, "It's fine that you called. Why would I blame you? Weren't you doing it for my own good?"
Hearing Jiang Yufei's words, Zheng Mengmeng breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "I knew our Yufei was the most generous.
After the doctor told me that both mother and child were safe, I called Mingli to report the good news.
Mingli told me that she wants to be the child's Godmother with me."
Seeing Jiang Yufei nod with a smile, Zheng Mengmeng spoke again, "Yufei, is this man you marked 'Feng' the child's father?
Otherwise, even the best friend wouldn't be so anxious."
Seeing that Zheng Mengmeng had guessed Lin Zifeng's identity, Jiang Yufei didn't deny it. Instead, she nodded and said, "Mengmeng, give me the phone!
I'll call him to report that we're safe. If he hasn't set off yet, I won't let him come. He's busy with work, and the journey is so long, so I won't make him go back and forth."
Hearing Jiang Yufei's words, Zheng Mengmeng handed the phone to Jiang Yufei.
Just as Jiang Yufei was about to call Lin Zifeng, the sound of a door opening and the Maternity Matron's voice echoed from the outer room.
"Sir, this is a private room. Who are you looking for? If you've entered the wrong room, please leave immediately."
"Hello, Sister, I'm Jiang Yufei's friend. Is Jiang Yufei staying here?"
Lin Zifeng's anxious voice followed.
"Oh, so you're Yufei's friend! Yufei is in the suite inside."
As the Maternity Matron's words fell, footsteps approached the inner suite.
Jiang Yufei looked at the door with shining eyes. As Zheng Mengmeng just stood up, the dusty Lin Zifeng walked in from outside.
They hadn't seen each other for over half a year. Lin Zifeng, who walked in from outside, had eyes only for Jiang Yufei. He casually put his coat aside, then took a few steps to Jiang Yufei's side, directly knelt in front of her, held her hands, and said with a worried expression, "Yufei, are you alright?"
"I'm fine, Zifeng, you don't need to worry. How did you get here so quickly?"
Jiang Yufei said with a smile in her eyes, which were also full of Lin Zifeng.
Zheng Mengmeng looked at the two in front of her and couldn't help but think, no wonder Yufei loves this man so much. This man's looks and temperament are the pinnacle among men.
Isn't he the quintessential Prince Charming type? No wonder Yufei is so devoted to him.
If it were any other woman, working with such a man for a long time, she would also fall hopelessly in love with him.
Just as Zheng Mengmeng was lost in thought, Jiang Yufei remembered her, so she said, "Zifeng, this is Zheng Mengmeng, whom I mentioned to you on the phone. She's my college classmate and roommate, and also one of my two best sisters.
Mingli is away on a business trip for work, and Mengmeng has helped me a lot these past two days."
Hearing Jiang Yufei's introduction, Lin Zifeng quickly stood up, extended his hand to Zheng Mengmeng, and said, "Hello, Zheng Mengmeng. It's a pleasure to meet you.
Thank you for taking care of Yufei."
Zheng Mengmeng shook hands with Lin Zifeng and said, "Didn't you just hear Yuxi's introduction? We're best sisters, and I'm also the child's Godmother! So these things are what I should do.
But I'm very curious about you. Since you appeared, your eyes have only been on Yuxi. Aren't you going to ask about the child?
If someone didn't know, they'd think the child came free with a phone top-up!"
"In my heart, the child isn't as important as Yufei."
After saying this, Lin Zifeng turned to Jiang Yufei and said, "Yufei, did you give birth to a daughter or a son? Where is the child?"
Hearing Lin Zifeng's words, Jiang Yufei felt as sweet as if she had eaten honey. She said with a smile, "I gave birth to a son."
Then she called out to Sister Zhang outside. The Maternity Matron responded and quickly brought the child in.
