Chapter 286: Shall We Raise Him Together_1
“Don’t go, he didn’t threaten me… It’s all because of me.” Jian Yufei grabbed his hand, her eyes dimming. “Xiao Lang, I’m grateful for the beautiful dream you gave me, but it’s time to wake up.”
“Yufei, are you trying to kill me with anxiety!” Xiao Lang desperately held her shoulders. Jian Yufei’s stomach suddenly turned, and she pushed him away, rushing into the bathroom to vomit.
She vomited for a long time, almost to the point of expelling her bile.

Lowering her gaze, she washed her hands and rinsed her mouth before turning around.
Xiao Lang opened his mouth slightly: “You…”
“This is how it is.” Jian Yufei nodded, “Even after taking contraceptive pills, I ended up pregnant. It’s completely fate. Xiao Lang, the child I’m carrying is Ruan Tianling’s, I can’t get engaged to you.”
Xiao Lang’s eyes widened in shock. He had imagined countless reasons why she might not want to get engaged with him, but he had never considered this scenario.
Jian Yufei bit her lip and looked down, clenching one arm with her hand.
She dared not look at Xiao Lang’s face, afraid to see disappointment and alienation. She understood that she was no longer worthy of him.
The man sighed, walked to her, and tenderly embraced her, his hand comforting her head.
“Yufei, you are being foolish. You think because you are pregnant, I will abandon you, that you are not worthy of me? I don’t care about any of this. Don’t let your imagination run wild.”
Jian Yufei slightly widened her eyes, hardly daring to believe her ears.
“Xiao Lang, I’m carrying someone else’s child. This is Ruan Tianling’s child. Doesn’t it bother you at all?”
“Do you intend to keep this child?” Xiao Lang asked her in return.
Jian Yufei paused, and after a while, she replied in a soft voice, “I don’t want to have a child with him, but the child is already on its way. I can’t bring myself to terminate it… Xiao Lang, I can’t terminate this pregnancy. That’s why I want to keep it.”
If she hadn’t had the experiences of a previous life, perhaps she would have considered termination. But she had already lost one child and didn’t want to lose another.
Only those who have never been mothers wouldn’t understand her feeling of reluctance.
Xiao Lang held her tighter and smiled slightly. “Alright, let’s have this child. From now on, he will be our child. Let’s raise him together, okay?”
Jian Yufei pushed him away, asking incredulously, “What are you saying?”
“I said let’s raise him together.”
“No!” She shook her head vehemently, “That can’t be! I can raise him myself. Xiao Lang, you don’t need to be burdened by me. You should find a clean and pure girl to marry, not me!”
A frown appeared between Xiao Lang’s brows. Clearly, he was not pleased with her words.
“Do you have so little faith in me?”
“Yufei, listen to me, I love you and I won’t abandon you for any reason. This child is yours, so it will also be mine. Let’s raise him together, okay?”
Jian Yufei was left feeling desolate.
Can she really marry him and raise a child that is not his together?
She was well aware of the unhappiness a blended family could bring to a child. But Xiao Lang wasn’t her stepfather, he was not that kind of man.
She knew he would treat her child well, but she really didn’t want to drag him down…
