Chapter 142 I won't care about you anymore
As soon as she left the restaurant, Lu Qingqing's smile vanished.
"Mr. Xu, I have to go now."
"But your hands haven't been treated yet?"
"It's just a minor injury, I'll take care of it myself when I get home... Also, I was just talking nonsense, sorry..."
He ignored Xu Xiao's reaction and walked away.
Insert the key into the lock, turn the lever to open the door and enter the house.
"I'm back."
The sudden sound from the living room startled Lu.
"Mom? What brings you here?"
The mother deer looked at her expressionlessly: "Did you go on a blind date today?"
Lu pouted slightly: "So you came to check up on me in person after all this time? Don't worry, I went. His name is Xu Xiao, a teacher. He's a nice guy, but we're not a good match."
The mother deer didn't react much: "So, you really went?"
"Of course, would I lie to you?"
"In that case, explain to me what this is?"
The mother deer took out a stack of paper reports and threw them on the table: "I found these when I came to clean for you. You'd better explain them to me."
When the stack of prenatal checkup reports was taken out, Lu Qingqing fell silent.
"Say something."
After a long pause, she finally said, "It's just as you see it. I have nothing to explain."
"Lu Qingqing! You've gotten so bold! You're doing anything behind your parents' backs now!"
The mother deer launched into a tirade of abuse.
The deer remained silent.
The mother deer sighed, "Things are already like this, I won't scold you anymore. Who is the father of the child? I will come to your house tomorrow to talk about this. They must take responsibility for this."
"Mom, the child has no father."
The mother deer laughed angrily: "Without a father, you got pregnant out of thin air? You're kidding me, Lu Qingqing!"
Lu Qingqing knew that if she didn't give her mother a reason to completely give up today, her mother wouldn't let it go.
"Mom, the child's father already has a family!"
The mother deer swayed precariously: "What did you say?"
The deer gently repeated it again.
The mother deer's hand immediately fell, and the deer gently turned its head to one side.
"Lu Qingqing, have you no shame? What have you done?"
The mother deer wailed loudly, and the deer gently bit its lip, desperately trying to hold back its tears.
"Tomorrow, I'll take you to the hospital to have an abortion."
The deer gently raised its head: "I won't abort the child!"
"What did you say?" Mother Deer laughed angrily. "Are you trying to piss me off? Do you intend to become a single mother like those characters in TV dramas?"
"Mom, the child is innocent. I want to keep this child. I know you disagree, but I must keep the child. I will raise it myself."
The deer turned its back gently, unable to bear seeing its mother's heartbroken expression.
She heard a "thump".
When I turned around, the mother deer had collapsed onto the sofa.
Lu Qingqing's pupils contracted slightly: "Mom!"
...
Wen Wanwan's birthday is coming soon.
The Wen family held a grand birthday banquet for her.
Shi Yang planned to leave with Lu Qingqing. When she called Lu Qingqing, it took a long time for the call to be answered.
“My darling Qingqing, tomorrow is Wanwan’s birthday. I’ll come find you then, let’s go together.”
After a moment of silence, someone on the other end said, "Yangyang, I can't go to Wanwan's birthday party. My mother is sick, and I have to take care of her."
"Is it that sudden? Is it serious? I'm coming right now."
"Don't come yet. My mom has high blood pressure, she'll be fine after a few days of rest. She's in a bad mood right now and doesn't want to see anyone."
Lu Qingqing's tone was very dejected.
Shi Yang moved her lips: "Alright then, you need to take care of yourself while you're pregnant. If you need anything from me, just give me a call."
"Okay, please tell Wanwan for me tomorrow that I'll give her the gift later."
After exchanging only a few words, Lu gently hung up the phone.
Upon entering the ward, he grasped the mother's hand and said, "Mom, I'm sorry."
The mother deer closed her eyes, tears streaming into the white hair at her temples: "Deer Qingqing, I will never take care of you again."
The deer bit her lip tightly to suppress her sobs.
...
On Wen Wanwan's birthday, Ji Peiheng went to the countryside.
Although the new city project has been finalized, five migrant workers did lose their innocent lives due to the power struggles of powerful figures. Ji Peiheng went to the countryside early in the morning to personally comfort the families of these five victims.
Shi Yang went to the banquet venue alone.
Wen Wanwan was dressed like a princess today, and her personality was still as lively as ever. She tugged at her skirt and came towards her: "Sister-in-law, why are you so late? I've been waiting for you for so long."
There was some traffic on the road.
"I don't care, I don't care, where's my birthday present?"
Shi Yang took out an exquisite, antique-style cube box: "Open it and take a look."
Wen Wanwan unlocked the clasp, opened the box, and breathed out a breath.
It's a crown!
Shi Yang took out a crown and placed it on her head: "I designed this myself, I hope you will like it."
"I love it, I love it so much!" Wen Wanwan nodded frantically, her eyes glistening with tears. "It's so beautiful."
The silver diamond crown on her head reflected a dazzling light with her movements, so bright it was almost blinding.
Shi Yang smiled as he watched.
From the first time she met Wen Wanwan, she felt that she was like a princess, with loving parents and a brother. Her childhood and even her life were what she envied.
Even her smile was an innocent smile, untouched by darkness, like that of a princess who knew nothing of the world.
She hoped she could always retain this innocence and remain a happy princess forever.
While Wen Wanwan entertained the guests, Shi Yang found a corner to sit and eat some desserts.
Wen Wanwan specially prepared her favorite strawberry tart.
Today's occasion is not only a birthday banquet, but the Wen family also has another purpose, which is to find a suitable husband for Wen Wanwan. Therefore, many of the guests at the banquet are young noblemen.
Shi Yang had already been approached by several men, and she tirelessly told them that she was already married.
She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she felt as if a pair of eyes were watching her from the shadows.
She thought she was dressed very casually today, with light makeup, and didn't try to get close to people, but she was still being stared at.
She went to an even more secluded corner.
A waiter carrying a tray hovered near her: "Miss, would you like a drink?"
Shi Yang took a cup and sipped it a few times.
The dizziness started to set in, and only then did I belatedly realize that the alcohol content was a bit high.
The world before my eyes seemed to have become a double image, the glass chandelier hanging overhead made me dizzy, and the world seemed to be spinning.
She took a few uncomfortable breaths, stopped a waiter, and asked for directions to the lounge.
I went up to the second floor feeling dizzy.
The more she walked, the more uncomfortable she felt, and a strange heat surged into her lower abdomen.
Her whole body was burning hot.
What kind of alcohol did I just drink? Why is the aftereffect so uncomfortable?
Even more strangely, she seemed to hear a series of footsteps behind her.
It was like... it was like someone was following her.
She turned around, and the corridor was empty except for her.
She leaned against the wall, panting heavily, and continued walking forward.
I tripped over the carpet and fell forward uncontrollably.
At the crucial moment, a hand supported her waist.
My body pressed against a cold, damp body, like a chilling snake flicking its tongue in the dark night.
