She Got Pregnant After a One Night Stand with a Werewolf

Chapter 144

The night was as dark as ink.

"Where are you taking me?"

Shang Xi asked in a hoarse voice. She was being carried bridal-style by Gu Wen, who was holding her tightly, hiding her in his suit jacket. She could feel his sturdy chest against her forehead.

Gu Wen was clearly in a good mood, his voice a seductive low rumble: "Don't be afraid, A-Shang."

Shang Xi felt him climbing stairs. Then they entered a room, and the night wind disappeared.

She felt Gu Wen sit down.

"What are you going to do?" Shang Xi stirred, preparing to get up, but a large hand gently pressed on the back of her head: "Don't move, A-Shang, just wait a little longer."

"What..." Before Shang Xi could finish, a sound reached her ears, as if... something had started up.

It's moving... This "room" is moving?

Ascending... ascending...

She licked her lips: "Are we on an airplane?"

"A-Shang is very smart," Gu Wen praised: "Yes, on a plane with your name on it."

Shang Xi remembered the last time, in that beautiful villa, the bags all over the house, and his mention of a plane...

"At this hour, where are we flying to?"

The plane was already soaring through the night sky.

Gu Wen looked out the window, gently curving his lips, and pulled the woman in his arms closer: "Look."

Shang Xi blinked her eyes. The cabin was dimly lit, but she looked out the window and was suddenly stunned.

In the inky black night sky, stars twinkled and shone. A dreamlike river of stars appeared before her eyes, beautiful to the point of breathlessness, like glowing diamonds.

It was completely different from what she had seen on the ground.

This spectacular sight was overwhelming, and she couldn't bear to blink.

She was now on a plane in the night sky.

Just like...

She had become... the plane her childhood self and grandmother had seen.

She had become... one of the planes dotting the night sky with the stars.

Gu Wen murmured: "Look down, you pure humans have also created a river of stars on the ground."

Shang Xi leaned forward slightly, lowering her gaze, her eyes wide.

"So beautiful..."

Multicolored lights covered the earth, with red, green, and pink lights, the most prominent being the golden streetlights lining the long roads, forming a golden dragon.

Now, what child on the ground was cuddled up to an elder, seeing the night sky and exclaiming in delight: "There's a plane!"

"A-Shang."

Shang Xi turned around.

Only to see Gu Wen standing there, holding a glowing little box.

He knelt on one knee, opening the luminous little box.

In the dim cabin, the glowing box was almost the only light source, and when it opened, a diamond ring lay quietly inside, gleaming beautifully.

Shang Xi stared at it without blinking: "You..."

"I once said I wanted to be your shooting star." Gu Wen's eyes had turned a green color in the light, as beautiful as emeralds.

Shang Xi stared into his eyes, unwilling to look away.

"I hope I can be your shooting star."

Gu Wen, seemingly unaware of the change in his eyes, blinked them and continued: "Tell me what kind of life you want, what you like, what you hope to obtain."

"There's no shooting star tonight, but that's okay. From now on, I will be your shooting star."

"A-Shang, be my partner."

Perhaps everyone wants to have their own exclusive shooting star.

But this wish is really too... impossible to realize, so they just wish to see a shooting star once.

Gu Wen stared at her, his green eyes glowing slightly, and Shang Xi almost fell into those two emeralds.

She murmured softly: "I already have a shooting star."

Only, it's a green one.

In the years when she was kicked around like a soccer ball, in the times when she was not cherished or valued, she had never imagined that one day, a werewolf unrelated to her by blood would appear, firmly choosing her, devoting everything, loving her as his life, wanting to be her shooting star.

"Okay." Her eyes curved into crescents as she stretched out her hand.

How could she not want to? She also loved this self-important, arrogant lone wolf.

This... lone wolf she deeply loved.

That... puppy who brought her snacks to the park every day, that... puppy who frantically ran through the streets searching for her when he found she was missing.

It turns out, from the beginning, she was his firm choice.

It turns out, long ago, she had already been cherished and cared for.

It turns out, long ago, she was not just a drifting weed, at least, there was a puppy who missed her.

The ring was on her ring finger.

She and Gu Wen embraced and kissed.

Sometimes, happiness is right in front of you.

When it comes, you have to seize it, right?

Isn't that what we're searching for our whole lives?

On the way back.

Gu Wen was holding Shang Xi's hand tightly, and Shang Xi opened the door first.

As soon as the door opened, there was a popping sound, and streamers fell continuously, a roomful of people laughing and giggling: "Did the proposal succeed, Mr. Gu?"

"Congratulations to both of you!"

"A-Shang, are you going to have a wedding now?"

"Wow, the ring is on already!"

Shang Xi saw familiar faces, Zhou Ziyou, Knife Sister, Nan Si, and Gu's family had also come.

Even her former landlord from the flower shop, that mother and daughter, had come all the way from abroad. If she hadn't handed the shop over to them, how would their lives have been so good?

Shang Xi was too surprised to speak.

"Auntie Gong, Elder Sister Gong, you..."

"Shang Xi, seeing that you have found happiness now, I am happy for you too," the 60-year-old Auntie Gong said with a kind smile.

"When are you having the wedding? I'll shamelessly come for a feast."

Shang Xi's eyes reddened: "Yes, Auntie Gong, you and Elder Sister Gong must come."

The streamers had not finished falling, and Baby Shang quietly walked over and hugged his mother.

He asked seriously: "Mom, are you happy today?"

Shang Xi squatted down: "Baby, Mommy is very happy."

"I see." Baby Shang revealed a sweet, innocent smile: "Mommy has to be happy every day. If Dad makes you unhappy, we'll leave him, okay?"

Saying such things, yet his smile was so harmless.

Gu Wen also squatted down, pinching the chubby cheeks of the young pup, and tugged his lips: "Little watchdog, you'll never see that day."

Baby Shang squinted his eyes and smiled, utterly adorable: "I'm sticking with Mom. Dad better keep his promise."

Gu Wen clicked his tongue, unable to resist pinching his chubby cheeks again.

Gu's mother smiled broadly at Shang Xi, holding her hand: "I'm truly happy for you two, thank you for giving my pup happiness."

"I've prepared some things for you." Gu's mother brought out a stack of contracts, property deeds, and ten small boxes.

If Taosu had been there, seeing those ten small boxes, he definitely would not have been able to keep a straight face, his eyes widening. Those were Snow Crystals that could increase lifespan, extremely rare.

In the Snow Mountain werewolf clan, only the larger clans would have a few, yet Gu's mother brought out ten at once!! This indirectly showed that Gu's clan, whether in the human world or in the Snow Mountain, was wealthy and resourceful, with immeasurable family resources.

The typical werewolf lifespan is over 300 years.

Some werewolves who want to live longer will seek out Snow Crystals.

Some werewolves who are tired of living will choose to leave early.

Gu's clan's Snow Crystals... who knows how many they have.

Probably... they can live as long as they want.

Shang Xi first learned about the 300-year lifespan of werewolves at Nanfeng Courtyard.

At the time, she only felt a little sad, because she could only live for about 100 years, and her pup would have to bear the pain of losing his mother for so long.

Now.

Their family can be together happily forever.

Forever... in such happiness.

It's really hard for werewolves to find a mate they mutually love.

They are very fortunate.

It goes without saying that Gu Wen would cherish the partner he had finally managed to pursue.

On the balcony, Gu Wen held his baby in his arms, one hand holding Shang Xi's.

"Shang, when do you want to have the wedding? The wolf mother said she'll help us pick a date."

That's right, the date of a typical wedding is usually arranged by the elders.

Shang Xi had no elders of her own.

Gu's mother then took her hand, pulled out a human calendar, and looked for an auspicious day.

A wedding where everyone wishes you well, how can one not look forward to it?

Shang Xi curled her lips, her eyes crinkling into a smile like the moon hanging in the night sky.

The main text is complete.

Author's note: Up next is a side story, where Shang Xi will go to the Snow Mountain. There will also be stories for a few other couples - since I've written them, I'll make sure they all find happiness.

A reminder: This book has no steamy scenes, no explicit content. Let's just play it safe, as some of my peers have already been invited for a "tea chat". I don't want to put myself in harm's way. I understand everyone wants to see some action, but I also need to be responsible for myself and love myself. If I loved you all too much and went there, it wouldn't be worth it.
