"President Shen, there’s a flight in two hours, we can still make it if we go now," Assistant Chen quickly brought up the flight information.
Shen Yi nodded, "Okay, book that one."
As he spoke, Shen Yi had already pressed the elevator button and swiftly entered, pressing the floor number right after.
The hotel where he was dining was the same one he had been staying at before. It would be enough time to pack up his luggage and leave within two hours.
On his way to the airport, Shen Yi received a message from Ye Wanwan, telling him she had already returned home and specifically wanted to let him know.
Shen Yi immediately video called Ye Wanwan. When she answered, she was sitting at the dining table eating, but she seemed to be in a bad mood.
Perhaps because she had been crying, her eyes were still red, and she gazed at Shen Yi in the video with a particularly aggrieved expression.
"I am already on my way now, and I will be home tonight," Shen Yi said softly.
Ye Wanwan nodded and then considerately asked, "Will this not delay your work?"
"No," Shen Yi shook his head without hesitation, his gaze stayed on Ye Wanwan’s face in the video as if he was carefully observing her expression.
He had always known that Ye Wanwan did not want a second child, so when he heard her inform him of the pregnancy, his uncontrollable joy was quickly overshadowed by concern.
Saying she did not want a second child before was one thing, but now that the baby was on its way, saying she didn’t want it was another matter entirely.
Shen Yi did not know what Ye Wanwan was truly thinking at the moment, which is why he chose to rush back.
Whether or not they would keep the baby, he would support Ye Wanwan’s decision and face it together with her.
"Why don’t you eat first, have a rest after your meal, and I will be home soon." Shen Yi did not have the ability to read minds and couldn’t just glance at her and know what Ye Wanwan was thinking; it was better to get back first and then discuss anything else.
"Alright, be careful on your way," Ye Wanwan said softly.
After hanging up the phone, Shen Yi looked out of the car window at the rapidly passing scenery, his expression somber.
Ye Wanwan did not return home until around one o’clock. The housekeeper did not know whether Ye Wanwan would come back for the meal, so Auntie Yang had Zhouzhou eat lunch on time.
When Ye Wanwan arrived, Zhouzhou was already about to take a nap, but upon hearing noises, he couldn’t help but come downstairs.
Zhouzhou was sensitive, and upon seeing Ye Wanwan for the first time, he could tell that her mood was off. His originally exuberant mood became cautious.
"Mommy," Zhouzhou called out to Ye Wanwan softly.
Ye Wanwan was in a bad mood, especially upon seeing Zhouzhou, her emotions peaked!
She felt as if she had betrayed Zhouzhou!
In her previous life, she had not treated Zhouzhou well at all, never considering him her own child.
In this life, she had vowed to love Zhouzhou wholeheartedly, to give all her maternal love to Zhouzhou alone!
But now that she was pregnant, with another child on the way, she felt she had betrayed Zhouzhou!
Ye Wanwan looked at Zhouzhou, and her already red eyes instantly became uncontrollable, welling up with tears.
"Mommy~" Zhouzhou pouted, a mix of worry and fear in his voice. He walked up to Ye Wanwan and reached to take her hand.
