Su Kexin’s expression appeared troubled. After all, this was the Cheng’s family house. It was not exactly fitting that she, a guest, should request that the host give them some time alone.Fortunately, Cheng Luo did not seem to mind. “Okay, sure. You two have a nice chat. I have some business to deal with outside anyway.”He was curious as to what Su Kexin wanted to speak to Cheng Ruo’er about, but since Su Kexin had already made a request to speak to his sister privately, he could not stick around any longer.Su Kexin gave Cheng Luo an apologetic smile. He returned it with a smile of his own, indicating that he did not take offense. The minute Cheng Ruo’er saw Cheng Luo leave, she dropped her façade. She looked at Su Kexin provocatively with a smug expression on her face. “Su Kexin, I heard that you’re pregnant.”“How did you know that?” Su Kexin was shocked. She had only told Gu Chi and Old Master Gu about her pregnancy. She hasn’t even told Su Yafen, so how did Cheng Ruo’er fi
Su Kexin had guessed that Cheng Ruo’er would not believe her so easily. She continued her explanation hurriedly, “I’m not lying. Su Yafen is indeed your biological mother. She’s been diagnosed with leukemia, and you’re her only blood relative. Only your bone marrow can match hers.”Cheng Ruo’er did not understand what Su Kexin was saying. She was so enraged that she almost lost her mind.“You’re insane.” She gave Su Kexin one last glance and chose to ignore her. She turned away and started walking upstairs.“Wait, you can’t leave!” Su Kexin rushed forward to stop her. “Not long after you were born, you were abducted. And my mother was the one who saved you, right?”“How do you know about that?” Cheng Ruo’er looked at Su Kexin suspiciously.“Cheng Luo was the one who told me. After that, I asked my mother to verify it too. My mother told me that the girl she picked up wasn’t you at all. But when she saw on the television that the Cheng family had lost their daughter, she wanted to
“Cheng Ruo’er, open the door!” Su Kexin yelled as she hit the door. “Let me finish speaking. Mom is in critical condition. You can’t just watch her die and do nothing about it.”Even though there was no response, Su Kexin refused to give up and pressed the doorbell relentlessly. She had to bring Cheng Ruo’er to the hospital today. She was Su Yafen’s only hope.“Cheng Ruo’er, just come with me to the hospital. If you take the test, you’ll know that I'm not lying. Please come out…”At that moment, Cheng Ruo’er was sitting on her bed. Hearing the relentless sounds of the doorbell coming from the door, she felt incredibly irritated.She angrily called over a maid and said, “Chase the woman outside away. If I still hear her yelling at the door later, you won’t have a job anymore!”“Yes, miss,” the maid replied and hurried downstairs.“Cheng Ruo’er, open the door. I just want to talk to you.” As Su Kexin continued yelling, the door suddenly opened.When she saw the door open, Su Kexin
“Okay.” Su Kein nodded gently. Her reply sounded casual, but her mind was still full of thoughts about the baby.Gu Chi felt a little awkward as he watched Su Kexin drink the soup silently. He spoke up to break the silence, “Kexin, where did you go today? Why did you come back so late?”“Nowhere. I just went to the hospital to accompany my mother for a while.” Su Kexin did not want to tell him about her and Cheng Ruo’er at the moment. If she did, he would surely think that she was targeting Cheng Ruo’er on purpose.“How’s mom?”“She’s fine.”He nodded, unable to find any more topics of interest. After all, he had never been a chatty person. The couple fell into silence once again.After finishing the bowl of soup, Su Kexin strengthened her resolve and lifted her head to look at Gu Chi. “Gu Chi, I have something to tell you.”“What?” Looking at her solemn expression, Gu Chi was curious about what she wanted to say.She inhaled deeply and said, “I want to keep this baby. If you s
Gu Chi would not believe that Cheng Ruo’er had framed her. If she told him about this now, she could not guarantee that things would look good for her.Now that they had managed to somewhat mend their relationship, she did not wish to start another argument with Gu Chi over Cheng Ruo’er. Perhaps she would tell him about it at a later date.Gu Chi did not ask her any more questions and hugged her tightly. In the silence, they could feel the warmth between them. It was something that they had not felt in a long time.Just like that, a few days passed since Gu Chi had agreed to let her keep the baby.Su Kexin and Gu Chi had been spending their time together rather happily. Even though it was obvious that Gu Chi was still not in the best mood, he never brought up the topic of getting an abortion again. They no longer had any arguments about it.When she saw that Gu Chi had silently accepted this child, Su Kexin was not only touched, but she was also determined. She must hurry up and p
“What?!” Su Kexin felt as if she was struck by lightning when she heard the doctor’s words. She thought that Gu Chi had booked a maternity inspection for her, so why was the doctor about to carry out an abortion? Suddenly, something clicked in Su Kexin’s head, and she felt like her world had just collapsed. Was it possible that Gu Chi had been lying to her the whole time? Perhaps he could not accept the child and decided to play along so that he could come up with a plan to force her through an abortion!Su Kexin broke free from the nurses’ grip and jumped down the bed. She quickly ran out of the operating room barefoot. Her tears streamed down her face as her heart filled with despair. How could Gu Chi treat her like this? She did not believe it. She must find Gu Chi now and ask him clearly! After running out of the hospital, Su Kexin found Yang Zuo standing by the car near the entrance. Without a single care as to how she looked right then, Su Kexin grabbed Yang Zuo by the arm a
Puzzled, Su Kexin slowly walked into the house. When she saw what laid before her eyes, her body froze in an instant.Were her eyes playing tricks on her? What were those things scattered on the floor? Stockings… A woman’s blouse… She looked in the direction of the scattered clothes.Whose clothes were these? Were they Cheng Ruo’er’s? Where was Gu Chi? Many questions passed through her head. Su Kexin’s body trembled as she felt her heart throbbing painfully. Then, her sight turned dark. She quickly regained her composure and steadied herself, though she kept her eyes closed as she did not dare to open them out of fear that she would see something she did not want to.She silently prayed in her heart that everything she saw earlier was just an illusion. She was just losing her mind and being delusional because she was too furious. Everything would be gone when she opened her eyes. After taking a moment to comfort herself, Su Kexin slowly opened her eyes once again. However, not
Just as Su Kexin was praying in her heart, she heard the sound of Gu Chi’s phone ringing from their bedroom. At this moment, Su Kexin’s heart sank into her stomach because she knew that this was Gu Chi’s ringtone. She was the one who had selected this ringtone for him just a few days ago when she was bored and had nothing to do. There was no chance of her mishearing it. Was it still possible that the man in the house was not Gu Chi? Su Kexin continued shaking her head in disbelief. She still refused to confirm her suspicions. She only hoped that Gu Chi would pick up the phone soon and tell her that he was not at home. If he did just that, she would believe him entirely. However, God did not seem to hear Su Kexin’s prayers as Cheng Ruo’er’s coquettish voice sounded once again. Su Kexin did not get to hear anything from Gu Chi, but the call already ended just as Cheng Ruo’er’s moaning stopped. “Sorry, the number you have dialed is unavailable. Please try again later…” Hearing t
