Shangxin did not notice the change in her expression and bit her lip upon hearing her question.
“We have not discussed the baby. I wanted to ask, but I couldn’t find the chance to. He treats me really well. Ever since he heard that I am pregnant, he has been a bit dense. Even when he goes to sleep, he refuses to let go of me like he is afraid that I will disappear…”
Shangxin was blushing as she spoke. Soon, she was too embarrassed to continue.
She thought about the changes in Tang Yuansi over the last few days and she was still in disbelief.
That’s why she was even more certain that Tang Yuansi cared about her and he would want the baby.
Nian Xiaomu led Shangxin to a chair and ordered a cup of warm milk for Shangxin and a cup of water for herself before she asked, “Then, he never said that he wanted to marry you?”
Upon hearing the question, Shangxin bit her lip and remained silent.
“You are already pregnant and Tang Yuansi is still not considering marriage? Has he not thought of it or does he want you to be an unwed mother?” Nian Xiaomu saw her reaction and guessed the answer.
Shangxin had never considered this.
Since she knew that she was pregnant, her biggest worry was that Tang Yuansi wouldn’t want the child.
But, for the child, she had to try one more time.
Tang Yuansi’s reaction was already way beyond her expectations.
She never expected him to be so happy and surprised when he found out that she was pregnant.
It was as if he had always anticipated for them to have a baby…
Happiness influenced her.
It had made her forget about everything else.
Until now…
Nian Xiaomu’s reminder made her realize that Tang Yuansi never mentioned anything about their future.
Including if he wanted her and the baby.
“Shangxin…”
Shangxin stopped Nian Xiaomu from continuing and explained, “Don’t worry, I’m okay. I am still the Shang Family’s daughter. Even if Tang Yuansi doesn’t want me, I can still go home. My parents dote on me and I have earned a lot of money through the years. I still have the Tang Corporation to inherit. Even if I am alone, I can take good care of the baby…”
She wanted to tell Nian Xiaomu that no matter what, she wasn’t going to give up on her baby.
Even if Tang Yuansi didn’t want the baby, she would give birth to the baby!
“Shangxin, don’t get agitated, I didn’t mean it that way.” Nian Xiaomu picked up her cup and drank from it.
She lowered her eyes and it covered her hesitation.
She didn’t know if she should tell Shangxin about meeting Tang Yuansi at the hospital.
Shangxin was pregnant, if any accident happened…
But, she didn’t say, she was afraid that they would part ways due to a misunderstanding.
Nian Xiaomu hesitated for a very long time, finally, she placed the cup down. She said slowly, “Have ever thought that maybe Tang Yuansi keeps avoiding you not because he doesn’t like you—but because of something else?”
Shangxin blinked in confusion.
It was as if she couldn’t think of any other reason that could cause that to happen.
Nian Xiaomu continued, “I change my question. Do you know if Tang Yuansi has any illness? The very serious kind, like terminal diseases… I know I sound like I am cursing him but, I really don’t mean it that way. I just…”
Shangxin answered, “I know that Brother Xiaosi has congenital heart disease.”
