Chapter 169 The wet cloth makes people breathless

On the third day after meeting Jiang Qinyuan, Lin Shutang ran into Tang Yue at the mall. When he saw her, she was bending over to pick up an orange that had fallen on the ground.

Lin Shutang quickened his pace and walked over, picking up the last one before her.

"Thanks."

"Sister Yue."

Tang Yue's belly was much bigger than before. She had no makeup on her face and wore loose maternity clothes. She no longer looked like the strong and decisive woman she used to be at work.

Hearing the familiar voice, Tang Yue looked up. Thinking of her current state, she called out awkwardly, "Shutang."

Lin Shutang helped her sit down on the chair beside him. After a long silence, he spoke: "Sister Yue... the father of the child."

Tang Yue touched her belly, as if she was thinking about something.

Lin Shutang thought she would not say anything more, but then he heard her answer: "He doesn't know the existence of this child."

"Why don't you tell him?" Lin Shutang was puzzled. Raising a child is a matter for two people, isn't it?

The next second, Tang Yue spoke: "This is the child I stole without his permission."

She forced a smile, trying to pretend that she didn't care, but Lin Shutang could sense a bitter taste in it.

She couldn't get a glimpse into the story, and such an answer was too heavy.

After returning to Luyuan, Lin Shutang was still feeling depressed. He felt as if he was covered in a layer of wet cloth. Although it was very thin, it was so stuffy that he couldn't breathe.

At night, she didn't sleep well and dreamed of many things. Dreams are obviously difficult to remember, but after she woke up, those fragments were unusually clear.

It was as if she was really pregnant, really abandoned, and really gave birth to the child and raised it alone.

She must have been sad in the dream, and when she woke up, there were tears on her face.

However, she didn't have time to fully appreciate the sadness because she heard rustling sounds at the door.

Lin Shutang slowed down his breathing, fearing that it would drown out the noise outside.

She got up from the bed without putting on her slippers, and her mind was on the news she saw yesterday - recently, a group of burglary gangs specifically targeted wealthy areas.

She slowly approached the bedroom door and picked up the golf club that Li Yansheng had placed at the door. In her mind were the words he had taught her - if you encounter a home robbery, run if you can, but if you can't, act quickly before the enemy notices you, attack his vulnerable points, act quickly, and don't hesitate.

She raised the club above her head, and the light was turned on from the outside switch at the moment the door opened with a "click".

The sudden stimulation of the light made Lin Shutang dazed for a moment, but he quickly took action.

However, he failed and was intercepted halfway through the action.

"You know how to launch a surprise attack, that's good, but I told you it has to be fast, fierce and accurate." It was Li Yansheng.

Lin Shutang let go of the club, still feeling a lingering fear. On the one hand, he had not yet completely recovered from the fear, and on the other hand, he was afraid of almost hurting Li Yansheng.

After a moment, she came back to her senses: "Why did you come back?"

Such a question was asked in an obviously aggrieved tone, as if there was another layer of meaning: Why did you come back just now?

"I finished the work ahead of time and came back." Li Yansheng put down the golf club and picked her up by her hips.

Lin Shutang suddenly jumped into the air, and his hands subconsciously wrapped around his neck.

When Li Yansheng's kiss came over, she tilted her head to avoid it.

Li Yansheng frowned.

This was the first time she had reacted like this since they had been together.
