It is July, the height of summer, the hottest season.
Ji Yuqi was obviously sweating all over, her dress was soaked, but when she heard Pei Yucheng actually questioning whether the child in her belly was Fu Sheng, it was as if in an instant, she fell into an abyss of ice that was so deep that it was freezing to the bone.
Five years later, that night, they had clearly had physical contact.
But.
But he had no intention of taking it upon himself.
The only reason is Ning Ruyan.
Ji Yuqi remembered very clearly that when the crew of "Shuangli" had just moved to the 7A scenic spot for filming, she accidentally heard Jin Li helping Ning Ruyan make an appointment with the top expert in obstetrics and gynecology outside Ning Ruyan's lounge on the set.
Jin Li was trying to comfort Ning Ruyan: "The doctor hasn't even seen you yet, why are you so discouraged?! This doctor's reputation as a 'top expert' isn't earned for nothing. I heard that as long as you make an appointment with her and receive her treatment, 80% of patients will become pregnant within six months..."
At that time, Ji Yuqi left without listening to the rest of the words.
But didn't Jin Li's words clearly indicate that Ning Ruyan was already in the process of preparing for pregnancy?!
With his permission, anyway.
so.
Now, knowing that she might be pregnant, he didn't admit it was his idea at all. Was he afraid of being exposed and making Ning Ruyan sad, or... did he simply not want to have any other children besides Ning Ruyan's?!
In that case—
Ji Yuqi raised his face as high as possible, forced to face the man's furious gaze.
In the dim light of the jungle, looking at the man with blood in his eyes, she felt like laughing even though her cheeks were aching.
Sarcastic.
Sad.
If he doesn't want to admit that the child is his.
Even certain that it belongs to another man.
So... why is the anger and rage still so strong?!
He is only thirty years old, but he has a successful career, a beautiful wife, and his life is almost perfect.
But he only allowed himself to have a house full of children.
She is not allowed to have any joy or happiness.
Is she only worthy of living under his shadow, struggling miserably, and having no good ending? !
Why.
Why?! ! ! !
so.
When Pei Yucheng suddenly released his hand that was pinching her jaw and wanted to continue carrying her out of the flower garden, Ji Yuqi took advantage of his unpreparedness and kicked him hard in the lower abdomen.
While Pei Yucheng was dodging in a panic, she turned around and ran towards the deeper flower garden.
I clearly remember that the rockery was just ahead.
However, when he stumbled over there, he found that it was a dead end.
In the flower garden.
The old tree with lush branches and leaves blocked out the dim streetlights coming from the other side of the road. Ji Yuqi retreated further inwards and saw Pei Yucheng's tall and strong figure approaching, his shadow becoming even longer.
There were deep recesses of artificial landscape stones on all sides. Ji Yuqi had nowhere to retreat. Her thin body was pressed tightly against the cold landscape stones. When Pei Yucheng's tall shadow enveloped her tightly, Ji Yuqi felt so oppressed that she had difficulty breathing.
She stared warily at the man who stopped less than a meter away from her, her voice trembling: "Pei Yucheng, stop! If you come any closer, I'll call for help. Tonight's banquet is full of powerful people. If you alarm them and let everyone see you, the head of the largest chaebol, bullying a girl like me, it will definitely have a bad impact. If you don't want to be ridiculed..."
While threatening, Ji Yuqi took out his cell phone to call for help.
She had an extremely strong intuition that if Pei Yucheng took her away tonight, not only would she not be able to keep her child, but she would also probably end up in a miserable situation.
