Chapter 132 President Meng's Fiancée
Meng Yaozhu shook his head: "I'm fine."
His heart was pounding, as if he were about to lose something.
After a short while, the meeting ended.
Back in his office, he processed some documents, and Secretary Kim came in to collect them.
Suddenly, the boss asked, "Where's Lu Qingqing?"
He hadn't seen her for several days. Meng Yaozhu didn't know why he suddenly thought of her; he just felt a void in his mind lately, as if no one was around him anymore.
"Lu Qingqing has asked for leave."
"You took another day off?"
She seems to be taking a lot of leave lately. Is she not feeling well?
"Bring me her medical examination report so I can take a look."
Secretary Jin returned quickly: "Lu Qingqing had something to do that day and didn't have a medical check-up."
Meng Yaozhu remembered this incident and then said, "Didn't we ask her to have a follow-up test later?"
"She didn't."
Meng Yaozhu frowned and leaned back: "Call her, I have something to ask her."
Secretary Kim called several times in a row, forcing herself to answer in the face of her boss's increasingly cold expression: "She's not answering..."
...
Lu emerged gently in less than twenty minutes.
Wen Wanwan rushed forward: "It's over so quickly? The baby's gone?"
The deer remained silent.
She looked at Shi Yang.
Shi Yang had the same question. She had never been pregnant or had an abortion, so she didn't know either.
Lu walked lightly to the bench and sat down without expression. After a while, her voice was heard.
"I intend to keep this child."
Shi Yang and Wen Wanwan looked at each other in bewilderment.
The deer gently stroked its belly, a soft expression on its face: "I just heard its heartbeat on the operating table, so strong, so healthy."
One at a time.
Listening to the baby's heartbeat, she suddenly felt the reality of her pregnancy; she was a mother.
Her child was growing healthily inside her belly, eager to come out and see the world.
But she wanted to take his life and prevent him from coming into this world.
Listening to his strong, steady heartbeat, she suddenly felt reluctant to let him go.
She got carried away and acted impulsively, and a little life quietly formed in her womb, but the child had to pay the price for her irresponsible behavior.
She wanted to keep the child and watch it grow up.
Wen Wanwan was overjoyed: "Really? You didn't abort the baby? The baby is still there?"
The deer nodded gently.
Shi Yang didn't know what to say, and looked at her with heartache: "Are you really sure? It will be very hard for you to be alone."
"I'm not afraid of hard work."
"Since you've chosen to keep him, why don't you let the child's father know?"
Lu thought for a moment and said, "I will find a suitable time to tell him that you are right and he has the right to know."
...
As soon as she left the hospital, Lu Qingqing received a call from Secretary Jin: "Darling, you finally answered the phone! President Meng hasn't seen you for days and he's furious. He's asking if you still want to keep your job?"
Lu gently rubbed her temples: "Tell him that I'm not feeling well today and that I'll be going to the company tomorrow."
Before Secretary Kim could finish speaking, she hung up the phone.
I took a taxi back to my neighborhood.
As soon as she got out of the car, car headlights shone on her.
She squinted and looked over; a man was standing next to the front of the car.
When she saw his face clearly, Lu Qingqing's eyes widened: "President Meng!"
She only took one day off, and he came to her door in person?
Meng Yaozhu strode towards her, looking her up and down.
I initially thought she was faking illness, but my anger vanished when I saw her pale face and weary eyes.
The voice softened slightly: "Are you really sick?"
His sudden appearance left Lu Qingqing flustered. She hadn't thought of what to say about the child and nodded haphazardly.
A long silence followed. Unable to bear the strange atmosphere any longer, Lu Qingqing spoke up, "Would you like to... come up and sit for a while?"
She regretted it as soon as she said it; in a moment of madness, she suddenly invited him upstairs.
I thought he would definitely refuse, but to my surprise, he said, "Okay."
Lu Qingqing led the way, with Meng Yaozhu following behind. As they went upstairs, Lu Qingqing was still regretting that she had said that extra word.
After entering, Lu said softly, "Mr. Meng, please sit on the sofa for a while, I'll pour you some tea."
Meng Yaozhu looked around and saw that it was a small, clean, and cozy two-bedroom apartment for singles.
There were fresh flowers in the vase on the table, which showed that she was a girl who loved life.
Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed a hospital examination report on the coffee table. He assumed that Lu Qingqing was feeling unwell and subconsciously picked it up to look at it.
Lu Qingqing came out of the kitchen and happened to see this scene. She rushed over and snatched the ultrasound report from his hand, her voice tinged with tension: "You, how could you touch other people's things like that?"
Meng Yaozhu didn't expect her to react so strongly: "I'm sorry."
"It's nothing, it belongs to me... my friend, but it's at my house."
She offered a flimsy explanation, but regretted it immediately afterward, realizing that Meng Yaozhu hadn't read the report carefully.
Frustrated, I made him some tea, wondering why I didn't take this opportunity to confront him directly.
She poured him some tea, sat down on the sofa opposite him, and said sternly, "To tell you the truth, actually I..."
Suddenly, Meng Yaozhu's phone rang at an inopportune moment, interrupting her.
Meng Yaozhu answered the phone. After hearing what was said on the other end, his expression changed drastically. He left with the words, "I'm leaving now," and got up to go.
Lu watched him rush out the door and bit her lip.
She had just heard a woman's faint voice coming from her hand.
The next day, she went to the company to hand over some work to Meng Yaozhu.
To everyone's surprise, Meng Yaozhu didn't come to the company today.
She and Secretary Jin secretly inquired about Meng Yaozhu's whereabouts.
Secretary Jin glanced around and said mysteriously, "President Meng's fiancée is sick, and he's taking care of her at the hospital."
Lu Qingqing was completely stunned; her mind was buzzing.
She heard a voice ask, "Mr. Meng has a fiancée?"
It was only later that I realized, oh, that was her voice.
Secretary Jin said, "Yes, she is President Meng's childhood sweetheart."
...
Shi Yang visits Qin Lan at the hospital every day.
Qin Lan felt sorry for her running over every day: "I have a caregiver here, and that old devil Ji Cheng'an too. Jin Yu will come too. Don't run over here anymore. The weather outside is gloomy, and it looks like it's going to rain. Go back quickly."
"Mom, let them come. I am also your daughter-in-law, and I also want to do my best to be filial."
She felt a maternal love from Qin Lan that she had never experienced from Song Zhihua, and in her heart, she had long regarded Qin Lan as her biological mother.
Qin Lan could not help but feel her heartfelt sentiments: "Silly child, how could I not feel your filial piety? Hurry back."
Shi Yang only decided to go home after she feigned anger.
She went to the garage to get her car and heard someone calling her.
"Shi Yang, we meet again. Don't you think it's fate that we're together?"
It was Liang Jin again. He leaned against the wall not far away and greeted her.
A strange feeling arose within her; it seemed as if she frequently encountered him in various places and at various events.
It was as if he was deliberately stalking her; he was like a parasite, always by her side.
