Ye Qilan took a deep breath, forcefully swallowing the rage welling up in his chest.
He was the one who wronged Su Hongxing, turning her into the person she’d become. He was the one who had done this.
Having two more annoying characters around Qingmu Garden was no big deal, it was tolerable, absolutely not an issue!!
He stepped forward and tossed the two irritating males aside, taking the space next to Su Hongxing himself. Speaking gently, he said, “Let’s go home first.”
When they returned home, he’d find a way to deal with these two annoying men behind their backs.
“I don’t want to go home. You were the one who said staying at home all the time was awful. I’ve finally come out for once, I’m not going home until I’ve had enough fun.” Saying this, Su Hongxing fumbled through Ye Qilan’s pockets. After she found his phone, she began to dial with practiced precision.
Ye Qilan could only nervously watch from the side, afraid that Su Hongxing would call Cao Zhen.
What would happen if Cao Zhen wanted to take Su Hongxing away?
Just as he was fretting, Su Hongxing got through and called out another man’s name: “Xiao Ji, which hospital are you at now? Is your child dead yet?”
Hearing the word “child”, Ye Qilan’s heartbeat quickened.
His face turned pale as he looked at Su Hongxing. Seeing his gaze, she kept talking on the phone, all the while smiling in a way that sent chills down his spine.
“Alright, I’m coming over to see Zhou Luhe now.” Su Hongxing said, then hung up the phone.
She started out first, but Ye Qilan quickly caught up and grabbed her arm: “Su Hongxing, let’s go home.”
She can’t go to the hospital and she can’t see Zhou Luhe again.
No matter the outcome for Zhou Luhe’s pregnancy, it would be devastating for Su Hongxing. They had been in alignment recently, with nobody daring to bring up the topic of children in front of her.
Even Su Hongxing herself seemed to have forgotten that she was ever pregnant.
But not long ago, Zhou Luhe’s comments had provoked Su Hongxing, driving her mad. From then on, pregnancy and children became taboo subjects for Su Hongxing.
“No, I have to see Zhou Luhe since I accidentally pushed her earlier.” Su Hongxing shook off Ye Qilan’s restraint and quickly forged ahead.
Ye Qilan truly felt helpless. He wanted to be good to Su Hongxing, but he didn’t know how to please her. Knowing that seeing Zhou Luhe in the hospital would upset her, he was unsure of how to prevent it.
Although he had every intention of being kinder to her from now on, he was at a loss upon seeing her present state.
Everyone said he was greedy and would end up with nothing. Was that not the path he was on right now?
In the end, Ye Qilan could not overrule Su Hongxing, and accompanied her to the hospital where Zhou Luhe was.
Even stranger was the fact that she brought along the two men bought by “The Red House”.
Xiao Ji was waiting at the door of the ward. Knowing that Su Hongxing was coming, he was both excited and expectant.
Zhou Luhe, seeing him , felt bitterly frustrated. She was his wife, nearly miscarrying their child due to Su Hongxing’s rough push, yet Xiao Ji was still pining for the very person who had caused the accident.
“Xiao Ji, my stomach feels bad,” Zhou Luhe announced.
This was a reminder to Xiao Ji. He was a father now and no longer had the freedom to fantasize about other women.
Xiao Ji turned to Zhou Luhe, returned silently to her side, and coldly said, “I remember always using contraception!”
Why was it that Zhou Luhe became pregnant at this very moment?
“Perhaps it’s divine intervention, don’t you think the timing of this child is perfect?” Zhou Luhe responded with a small smile.
Xiao Ji took precautions, but she had tampered with those precautions. Once she bore Xiao Ji’s child, wouldn’t that tie him to her forever?
