Chapter 297 You don’t trust your own man, but you trust the mistress?
When they returned home, Xing Yu told Lin Yan everything about Wen Xi's pregnancy without hesitation.
After hearing this, Lin Yan remained silent.
This kind of thing just popped up out of nowhere.
Unable to digest for a while.
I could only ponder what he said over and over in my mind.
She was about to ask something when the doorbell suddenly rang, breaking the silence in the living room.
Xing Yu stood up and walked towards the door. When he saw the person standing outside, he couldn't help but look down: "Why are you here?"
Wenxi was holding a bag in her hand, with a perfect smile on her face, and her tone was as natural as if she was a friend visiting.
"Xing Yu, today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. I made some dumplings at home. Thinking that Lin Yan's taste might change since she's pregnant, I decided to send some over."
"No need." Xing Yu refused directly and prepared to close the door: "She is pregnant now and can't eat many things. You can leave."
He didn't want Wenxi to get close to Lin Yan, and he was even more afraid that she would say something that would irritate Lin Yan.
But at this moment, Lin Yan came over, reached out and held Xing Yu's hand that was about to close the door, and smiled at Wen Xi: "Wen Xi, thank you, I'll take the dumplings. Would you like to come in and sit for a while?"
Wenxi shook her head: "No, I just came to deliver some dumplings, nothing else, I won't bother you anymore."
Lin Yan took the bag from her hand and deliberately glanced at Wenxi's lower abdomen.
She was wearing a loose coat and there was no sign of pregnancy at all.
Wenxi noticed her gaze, but instead of avoiding it, he met her gaze.
The two people's eyes met in the air. They appeared calm on the surface, but the undercurrent in their eyes was like a volcano that could erupt at any time.
"Wenxi, I heard that you are pregnant?" Lin Yan suddenly spoke, her voice surprisingly calm.
After saying this, the corners of Wenxi's smiling mouth froze.
Lin Yan continued slowly, "I just found out that Xing Yu told me about your pregnancy."
Wenxi didn't expect Xing Yu to tell Lin Yan about this so soon.
She didn't expect Lin Yan to ask her so directly.
Wen Xi calmed down, remaining calm, and said softly, "Lin Yan, this has nothing to do with Xing Yu. It's not his fault... He was drunk that night and didn't know anything. Ultimately, he did nothing wrong. I don't need him to be responsible, and I don't want this to disrupt your relationship."
"No." Lin Yan interrupted her, her eyes instantly cold, and her voice sharp: "It's his fault that he can't control his lower body."
After she finished speaking, she suddenly turned around, raised her hand and slapped Xing Yu on the cheek.
A crisp slap was heard, and Wenxi stood there, not knowing what to say.
Lin Yan turned to look at Wenxi, her words powerful, "I'm sorry, Wenxi. I just found out about this, and I lost control of my emotions. I slapped him on your behalf. Please apologize to me and to the child in your belly on his behalf."
"Don't worry, I will divorce Xing Yu. Of course, it's not to help you two, but I just think he's dirty. I can't accept him physically and mentally having physical contact with other women."
Wen Xi's eyes suddenly turned red, and she advised her: "Lin Yan, Xing Yu loves you. You are pregnant now, you can't be so impulsive..."
"It's not an impulse, it's a choice." Lin Yan said, "You go back first. I need to have a good talk with Xing Yu about the divorce."
Wenxi left and the door closed. Before the air in the living room could relax, Lin Yan's wrist was grasped by a warm force.
Xing Yu gently propped her up against the door panel at the entrance. His tall figure loomed over her. The usually calm man's eyes were red at this moment. "Ayan, no, I won't divorce you. I will never divorce you."
He repeated it many times, his voice becoming more and more confident.
Lin Yan raised her eyes, her gaze first falling on his tense jawline, and then swept across the red mark on his right cheek that she had left.
She didn't respond, broke free from his hand, and turned to walk towards the kitchen.
Xing Yu panicked. She was most afraid that Lin Yan would not cry or make a fuss and would be indifferent to him.
He froze at the door and watched Lin Yan's back as she walked into the kitchen. His heart sank a little bit, and his mind was filled with the word "divorce" that she had just said.
He was afraid that she would lose heart and no longer want him.
After a while, Lin Yan came out of the kitchen with an ice pack wrapped in a towel in her hand and sat down on a chair in the dining room.
She put the ice pack on the table and glanced at Xing Yu who was still standing at the door.
The 1.9-meter-tall man looked like a large dog neglected by its owner, with a drooping face and a pitiful look.
She hooked her finger at Xing Yu: "What are you standing there for? Come over here."
Xing Yu took a step forward almost immediately and walked quickly to her, but he didn't dare to get too close. He stopped only two steps away, like a prisoner waiting for sentencing.
"Ayan...I..."
"Squat down." Lin Yan interrupted him.
"No." Xing Yu was determined to survive: "I'll kneel."
After he finished speaking, he bent his knees without hesitation, kneeling down in front of her with his tall body, looking up at her, his eyes full of panic and sincerity.
"Ayan, listen to me, this matter is still uncertain. I want to wait until she's a week pregnant and then do an amniocentesis to test her DNA. Let's wait until we know whether this is true or not before we say anything, okay?"
As he spoke, Xing Yu wanted to touch her hand, but pulled back when he was about to touch it.
His cautious look made Lin Yan's originally tense mouth corners slightly lift.
She picked up the ice pack on the table and put her hand over his swollen right cheek.
Feeling the cold touch, Xing Yu didn't dodge but stretched his face forward and looked at her obediently.
"Xing Yu." Lin Yan raised her eyebrows: "Why do you think I won't trust you?"
Xing Yu's mind raced, and a look of surprise instantly lit up in his eyes: "Huh?"
He didn't understand, but then he seemed to understand.
"Does your face hurt?" Lin Yan concentrated on applying ice to him, her voice softer. "The beating was a bit harsh, but Wenxi is a high-level player and hard to fool. I had to act more convincingly to make her let down her guard."
"Were you just...acting?"
Lin Yan nodded, put down the ice pack, rubbed the slap mark on his face with her fingertips, and looked at him.
"Yes, I'm acting. Xing Yu, we've been married for more than two years. I know you best. Even if someone stood naked in front of you, I believe you wouldn't do anything to let me down."
"I'm not a twenty-something girl. I'm not so naive as to believe everything I hear. You chose to be honest with me, isn't it just to resolve this matter better?"
"Marriage isn't always smooth sailing. To put it bluntly, it's like fighting monsters. You'll encounter many mistresses along the way. As long as the couple is united and trusts each other, I believe there are no obstacles that cannot be overcome."
"Xing Yu, you've given me 100% of your love along the way, and I want to give you 100% of my trust as well. I believe in you."
These words made Xing Yu feel mixed emotions and couldn't help but shed tears.
He stared at her: "Ayan, do you trust me so much?"
"You don't trust your own man, but you trust the mistress?"
"But...I don't believe in myself 100%."
