The Film Queen’s Little Bunny Wife - Chapter 58

Will she have a child of her own? Ling Hanyan had never considered this question in her life.

Before meeting Tu Jiaojiao, she was known in the industry as a notorious lone wolf, always alone and having nothing to do with children.

After getting together with Tu Jiaojiao, she put the thought out of her mind even more. Not only were they both women, but Jiaojiao was still like a child in her eyes.

She knew that Minuoka and Tu Yueming were a couple and had an adorable child, Tu Mixuan.

However, she had always assumed that Tu Mixuan was conceived through scientific means until she realized that the Moon Rabbit clan possessed this unique racial talent.

A feeling of helplessness surged in her heart, but the slight tremble in the hand gripping her phone revealed an inexpressible excitement and joy inside Ling Hanyan.

“Jiaojiao, where are you? I’m coming to find you right now.” After processing the news, she could no longer contain her emotions and just wanted to rush to her Jiaojiao’s side.

Since her scenes for the day were finished anyway, she found Director Fang Zhiqiang and asked to leave early.

Director Fang was quite surprised. Although Ling Hanyan hadn’t achieved massive fame before, her reputation among directors in the industry was excellent they said she was hardworking and willing to endure hardship.

He frowned slightly, wondering if Ling Hanyan was getting carried away now that she was becoming famous.

However, the usually quiet and reserved woman had an irrepressible smile on her lips, and once she opened up, she couldn’t stop talking: “Director Fang, my girlfriend is pregnant. We just found out, and I need to go be with her. Oh, by the way, I haven’t announced this publicly yet, so I hope you can keep it a secret for me!”

“Okay, then… then you go. Congratulations…” Fang Zhiqiu had only seen male actors use this excuse to ask for leave before, and for a moment, his mind couldn’t quite process how to respond.

After Ling Hanyan eagerly left, the script supervisor came to call him, and he vaguely heard him muttering, “Is this content I get to hear for free?”

A popular actress personally revealing she’s a lesbian!

And her lover is pregnant, with happy news approaching!

This kind of news would cause an explosive sensation if any gossip rag got wind of it!

Fortunately, his personality wasn’t the type to air an artist’s personal affairs publicly. Since he promised Ling Hanyan to keep it confidential, he definitely wouldn’t talk.

But who could her girlfriend be?

If she was an outsider, Director Fang certainly wouldn’t know her, so he made a small-scale guess within the crew, narrowing his focus to two people: one, Ling Hanyan’s assistant Xiao Liang, and two, Tu Jiaojiao.

Ling Hanyan left in a hurry, and Xiao Liang was asking around, unable to find her after coming out of the restroom.

So, it could only be Tu Jiaojiao!

Thinking of the inherently cute and charming girl who played Ruan Binghua so naturally, Fang Zhiqiu’s eyes suddenly lit up.

He had thought before that Ling Hanyan was as cold as ice, only melting when she was in front of Tu Jiaojiao. In a subtle way, they were a very good match.

If it really was Tu Jiaojiao, then the two were indeed a great match.

Moreover… as the director of the film, Fang Zhiqiu knew much more than others.

If he wasn’t mistaken, Tu Jiaojiao’s identity was far from simple, much more than she let on.

It seemed… the entire film was an investment by the Tu Group, and the famous CEO Tu Yueming had a sister who rarely showed herself in public.

At this thought, Fang Zhiqiu gasped. He seemed to have stumbled upon something significant.

He had been contemplating whether a mere makeup artist was worthy of a future Movie Queen, but now he had to worry about whether Ling Hanyan was worthy of the Tu Group.

This was Ling Hanyan’s first time visiting the hospital Tu Jiaojiao often went to. When she arrived, she realized it was entirely private and not open to the public.

It was only open to the Moon Rabbit clan and their close relatives. On the outside, it looked like a quiet, private art gallery, nothing like a hospital filled with the smell of disinfectant.

The receptionist saw someone approach, stood up, and asked, “Hello, may I ask what you are here for?”

People often wandered in out of curiosity, which is why she asked.

Ling Hanyan regretted her rashness; she had forgotten to ask Tu Jiaojiao what her appointment was for and where she was right now.

So, she could only tentatively ask, gesturing beside her ear: “I’m looking for Tu Jiaojiao, she’s about this tall…”

Before she could finish, she noticed the receptionist’s expression visibly warm up, and her attitude became much more enthusiastic.

She stepped out from behind the counter and led the way, walking ahead: “Oh, you’re looking for the Little CEO Tu. She is resting; I will take you to her now.”

Little CEO Tu…

Ling Hanyan savored the three words in her mouth, catching an unusual scent, and her eyes darkened slightly.

“Yanyan, I was going to pick you up. I didn’t expect you to find your way here yourself.”

Seeing Ling Hanyan following behind the receptionist, Tu Jiaojiao felt a pang of guilt.

Yanyan’s expression was serious. She was so smart; she must have guessed her identity…

A receptionist wouldn’t treat just anyone with such kindness…

This was truly frustrating.

She should have told her earlier…

Now, Tu Jiaojiao was filled with only regret. She used a soft, sweet voice to try and appease Ling Hanyan, hoping to ease her displeasure.

“Are you okay? How can a woman get pregnant with another woman?” Unexpectedly, Ling Hanyan was not concerned about her identity at all.

She walked straight into the room, closed the door, sat by Tu Jiaojiao’s bed, held her hand, and squeezed it, her words full of concern.

“Maybe it’s because I’m a rabbit. I’m not sure how the specifics work,” Tu Jiaojiao’s cheeks felt hot, and her anxiety subsided significantly.

She repeated what the doctor had said and looked up at Ling Hanyan, seeing deep worry in her eyes.

Tu Jiaojiao quickly raised her hand to stroke Ling Hanyan’s head, sat up, and embraced her: “Yanyan, do you want a child? I can probably only give birth to girls.”

“Let’s get married first.” Ling Hanyan’s expression was serious. Her usual composure had flown out the window, and she was emotionally stirred. “While the bump isn’t obvious yet, let’s get married quickly.”

“Huh?” Gee! Fast forward to marriage!

Tu Jiaojiao got excited, her voice carrying an undetectable nervousness, stammering, “Haven’t we not announced it yet? Sec-secret marriage?”

Upon careful consideration, a secret marriage might not be so bad.

As long as the person she married was Yanyan, that was all that mattered. She came to this world originally to find Ling Hanyan.

Now, to be able to meet her, fall in love with her, and spend the rest of their lives together—the thought filled her with immense happiness and satisfaction.

“We can announce it!” Ling Hanyan stated confidently.

The one who was pregnant was Tu Jiaojiao, but Ling Hanyan seemed to have lost a bit of her common sense.

The thought of her, Tu Jiaojiao, and their baby forming a small family made her so excited that she didn’t know what to do.

She pulled out her phone and scrolled aimlessly: “Sister Mao said that as long as The Legend of the Crane Spirit Empress is released, we can announce our relationship. I’ll tell her right now, and then immediately post a public announcement on Weibo…”

“No rush,” Tu Jiaojiao pressed her hand down. “You usually shouldn’t talk about a pregnancy until three months are complete.”

“That sounds right,” Ling Hanyan’s eyes flickered. “Then can I tell my mom?”

Tu Jiaojiao: “…”

It was rare to see Yanyan look so eager, like a puppy, and she really didn’t want to disappoint her.

“You can tell her… but I’m a little scared,” Tu Jiaojiao gripped Ling Hanyan’s hand, drawing strength.

She carefully listed her concerns, “I haven’t met Auntie yet. What if she doesn’t like me? What if we don’t get along… She didn’t know you had a girlfriend before, did she?”

Ling Hanyan realized she had a point. Although she didn’t think her mother would have any issues with Tu Jiaojiao, she understood Jiaojiao’s worries.

Before meeting Tu Yueming, she had also been worried about whether the other person would dislike her.

“Then, should we go meet my mom first? We talked about meeting her before, but work was too busy, and things kept piling up. We never had a chance.”

“Mm…” Meeting the parents.

Tu Jiaojiao’s cheeks were flushed and warm. After a long pause, she softly replied, “Okay… you see when you have time, and we’ll buy some gifts and go find her.”

“Let her come here,” Ling Hanyan unexpectedly stated seriously. “You have a baby, so you can’t fly. My filming schedule is also quite tight, and I can’t take the time off.”

Having made this decision, she told Tu Jiaojiao that she was going to call Ms. Jin and immediately walked out the door.

Tu Jiaojiao lay back on the bed, nervously picking at her hands.

The doctor said the Moon Rabbits have strong reproductive capabilities and usually don’t miscarry, but she still needed to stay in the hospital for two days for observation.

Oh, right. She hadn’t called her sister to report the happy news.

Before Ling Hanyan came, the “Sister’s Girl” was too focused on her anxiety.

When Yanyan arrived, she talked to her about this and that. Only now did she remember that she should inform Tu Yueming about such a major event.

Now that she was in a relationship, her heart and eyes were filled with Yanyan, and her dependence on her sister had lessened she had grown up, in a way.

Sure enough, her sister was also very excited when she heard the news.

After listening carefully to Tu Jiaojiao and Ling Hanyan’s plan for meeting the parents, going public, and discussing marriage, she was very happy and even more satisfied with Ling Hanyan.

She was rushing to go back and pack the clothes Tu Mixuan wore when she was little.

Just as she hung up the phone, Ling Hanyan returned.

Her expression was much more composed. She walked over and kissed Tu Jiaojiao on the lips.

“Jiaojiao, thank you.”

It was a random, unprompted statement, yet it held a lot of meaning.

She never imagined someone would love her this much and be so attractive to her.

She never imagined how comfortable and happy it would be to establish a stable relationship with someone else, nor did she imagine a life with a biological connection to her existing in this world.

All of this was brought to her by Tu Jiaojiao, on a gentle breeze through that bamboo forest, one step at a time.

The two expectant mothers affectionately chatted for a while, trying to adjust to the process.

Ling Hanyan was unusually tactful and did not ask why the receptionist had referred to Tu Jiaojiao as the Little CEO Tu.

Her Jiaojiao was easily startled.

Since Jiaojiao couldn’t be discharged and they couldn’t go home to rest, they had to open the most famous domestic parenting website on their phone.

They diligently studied various pregnancy precautions and postpartum care tips.

They spent the entire afternoon studying tedious knowledge, but they absorbed it with great interest, wishing they could immediately become as adept mothers as Tu Yueming and Minuoka.

They also hoped their child would be as sweet and adorable as Tu Mixuan.

This excitement for impending motherhood continued until the day Ling Hanyan’s mother arrived three days later.

Ling Hanyan went to the airport to pick her up, leaving Tu Jiaojiao alone at home.

However, she wasn’t lonely. Big White, Little White, and Cotton Candy were lying beside her. After two days without their owner, the furry companions were incredibly attached to her.

Tu Jiaojiao stroked the furry friends while indulging in whimsical musings, “I hope Auntie likes me… If she doesn’t, I’ll slap a hundred million on the table and say, ‘Here’s a hundred million, let your daughter be with me.'”
