“Two people eating?” Beike did not think in that direction at all. “Your soul?” Pei Jiao rolled her eyes at Beike. “Don’t speak if you don’t know how to speak.”
“Then why are there two people eating?” The confused Beike was still spouting nonsense. “Could it be that something happened in this hotel suite? Who else’s vengeful spirit is lingering here?”
Pei Jiao almost couldn’t help but throw the remaining chicken bones at Beike. “If you talk nonsense again, I’ll feed you mute medicine.”
Beike thought that before he even started to fly into a rage, she was already in the right. He walked forward and was about to say a few good words to her about the trip to Xingzhou.
However, before he could speak, he heard Pei Jiao say coldly, “I’m pregnant.”
Beike was stunned for a moment, as if he had not heard clearly. “What?”
Pei Jiao wiped her mouth with a tissue, then wiped her hands. Then, she slowly moved her hand to her abdomen and looked up at Beike. She repeated seriously, “I’m pregnant!”
As Pei Jiao finished speaking, the suite was almost dead silent.
Pei Jiao saw that Beike was standing there motionless, as if his acupoints had been pressed. She couldn’t help but laugh. “Are you very surprised?”
Beike barely came back to his senses. “Whose?”
Pei Jiao stood up. “It’s not yours anyway.”
She walked towards the French windows, planning to open the curtains a little. When she was done pulling the left side to the right, she was suddenly blocked by Beike. She asked, “Why are you standing here?”
Beike asked her with a serious expression, “Is it Wei Yu’s?”
Pei Jiao was very calm about this topic. “Who else could it be?”
“From your tone, you seem to be looking forward to you and his child.” Beike’s gaze moved down and stopped on Pei Jiao’s abdomen. Her eyes were dark and cold.
Pei Jiao raised her hand to cover her abdomen and also blocked Beike’s line of sight. ‘You’re not allowed to have any ideas about my son.”
“Yo! You’re already protecting your child!” Beike sneered. “Also, how long has it been? You even know its gender?”
Pei Jiao endured Beike’s sarcasm. “I have a feeling it’s a son.”
With that, she pulled back the curtains on the other side as well. The entire suite was suddenly brighter. She stretched her arms and yawned sleepily.
At first glance, it was still about two hours before dark. Standing here and looking into the distance, the prosperity of Xingzhou was not inferior to the capital. The rows of tall buildings were too much to take in. It had been a long time since she had come to admire the prosperity in such a calm mood.
Beike walked to Pei Jiao’s side and stood beside her in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. “I’m sorry, my tone wasn’t very good just now.”
Pei Jiao was magnanimous. “l forgive you.”
Beike suddenly said, “l didn’t look at the piece of paper you asked me to give Wei Yu.”
Pei Jiao knew very well. “l know you didn’t look. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have been so surprised just now.”
Beike smiled bitterly. “We’ve known each other for so long. You know that I’m a very disobedient person, right? If it were in the past, it would be impossible for me not to read it. Only last time, I followed the rules and never looked at what was on that piece of paper once.”
“What would happen if you saw it?” Pei Jiao turned to ask him.
Beike also looked at Pei Jiao and did not hide his selfishness. “It’s very likely that I will intercept it. Wei Yu won’t be able to see it.”
He thought that revealing his selfishness would make Pei Jiao angry.
However, Pei Jiao only smiled faintly. “Whether you intercept it or not, I will come to Xingzhou to pick him up.”
This time, Beike was truly speechless. He sighed and turned to leave. When he was almost at the door, he turned back and reminded Pei Jiao, “Stay in the hotel tonight. Don’t go anywhere.”
Pei Jiao turned to look at him. “The operation is tonight?”
Beike nodded slightly. “Yes, so you should eat and sleep.. As long as nothing goes wrong, I guarantee that you will see him when you wake up tomorrow morning!’
