Chapter 721: Chapter 721: Come Back to Me, Be My Wife
The doctor had sensibly left, leaving the space to the two of them.
He Jingyao suddenly folded the test report and placed it on a small table nearby, then sat down beside her, slightly leaned over, and cradled her face in his hands.
The man’s face remained calm, his handsome features cold and harsh, but underneath his eyes it seemed as if a storm was brewing, carrying a surging and powerful force.
Zhixi stared at him, her heartbeat gradually accelerating.
His Adam’s apple bobbed again, his fingertips gently caressed her lips, then pressed down, kissing her deeply, yet he did not invade further, just gently covering her for a while before letting her go.
“You’re pregnant,” his voice was still low and husky, but his tone was certain.
He suddenly laughed, a sound like a sigh of relief after a calamity escaping his throat.
He pulled her tightly into his arms and repeated, “Zhixi, you’re pregnant.”
Her tears once again started to flow.
“Yes… I’m pregnant,” she said softly. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ novel⁂fire.net
It turned out, it wasn’t that he had no reaction or doubted her, but that he was… shocked to the point of not knowing how to react.
“I… just now thought I was going to lose you again,” he laughed hoarsely, “Su Zixi, if you dare to do what you did before, I’ll really be angry.”
Zhixi shook her head forcefully in his embrace, her tears becoming more torrential.
“You won,” he suddenly whispered into her ear, “Su Zixi, you won.”
Zhixi raised her head in a daze, not catching on, as tears continued to fall from her eyes.
“Pregnant women shouldn’t cry,” he frowned slightly, somewhat roughly wiping away her tears.
“Jingyao…” she murmured, “You said… I won, what does that mean?”
“It means, I can no longer live without you,” he said quietly, “Come back to me, be my wife… I don’t want to waste any more time.”
Zhixi opened her mouth, but it felt like something was stuck in her throat, her tears falling even more furiously.
While wiping her tears, he continued softly, “It’s not because you’re pregnant again… but because, I suddenly realized that accidents happen all the time in this world and even with wealth and power in my hands, I can’t necessarily fend off the fickleness of fate. Four years have been enough of a lesson; I don’t want to waste time on meaningless conflicts and you mustn’t… mustn’t leave me again.”
Zhixi cried and vigorously nodded, “Okay… I promise you.”
He Jingyao chuckled softly, his forehead against hers, his voice still hoarse, “Now you are content.”
She cried so much that she could no longer speak, only able to embrace him tightly, her tears soaking his collar.
He Jingyao was somewhat helpless as he lifted her face and gently wiped her tears, “No wonder you’ve been so temperamental lately. I heard from Uncle Li that hormonal changes during pregnancy can make women very moody, turns out it’s true.”
It was all because she was pregnant with his child again.
He thought he would never have such luck and blessings again, and she suddenly gave him such a surprise. Although he hadn’t expected it, the news had still stunned him for a long time.
So, it turns out all of this is real, and he was not dreaming.
