“Huanhuan, you’re right. If we don’t teach her a lesson this time, she might do something even worse in the future.”
Ye Haiming clearly agreed with Ye Huanhuan's statement.
Gao Yalan: "Huanhuan, as long as you don't kick Xiaoru out of the house, I have no objection to how you punish her. After all, she was raised by her mother since she was a child."
Ye Huanhuan nodded, indicating her understanding.
"However, Huanhuan, shouldn't you explain what's going on with the baby in your belly?" Ye Haiming asked Ye Huanhuan with a frown.
She had originally planned to tell Ye Haiming about her pregnancy after the NT scan, but now that the scan was only a few days away, and given that her condition at S University was stable, there was nothing left to hide.
She confessed truthfully, "Dad, on the day Herbert Smith came to S City, didn't you ask me to go to the hospital for a check-up? That's when I found out I was pregnant."
Ye Haiming felt betrayed, and a surge of anger welled up within him. He growled at Ye Huanhuan in dissatisfaction:
"Why are you only telling me about something this big now?"
"Honey, don't be angry."
Gao Yalan, fearing Ye Haiming would lose his temper, quickly stepped forward, patted Ye Haiming on the back, winked at Ye Huanhuan, and said:
“I told Huanhuan not to tell you. I heard from Aunt Wu that babies in the womb are very secretive. The fewer people who know, the better. The more people who know, the more likely the baby will run away. That’s why I didn’t let Huanhuan tell you.”
The thought that the mother and daughter had kept it from him for so long, and about something so important, made Ye Haiming unable to control his anger.
Although Gao Yalan explained the reason, it did not eliminate his dissatisfaction at all.
He took a deep breath, trying to control his emotions, and said to Gao Yalan:
"Honey, don't believe those superstitious sayings. How could the child be stingy?"
Gao Yalan frowned and said somewhat aggrievedly, "But I'm worried about the baby too. People say that you have to keep it a secret for the first three months, otherwise you're more likely to miscarry. This isn't just superstition."
Ye Haiming shook his head helplessly. Although he understood his wife's concerns, he didn't agree with her statement. He turned to Ye Huanhuan and asked seriously:
"Huanhuan, is this the reason you didn't tell me?"
Ye Huanhuan hadn't expected Gao Yalan to take the blame upon herself. Faced with Ye Haiming's question, she nodded and replied:
"Yes, I was planning to tell you in the next few days, but I didn't expect things to turn out like this."
Ye Haiming really couldn't understand what Ye Huanhuan was thinking.
"Since you know you're pregnant, why do you insist on going to S University to study business management? Wouldn't it be better to stay home and rest during your pregnancy?"
"I'm just pregnant, not paralyzed. No one says you can't go to school if you're pregnant."
"you!"
Ye Haiming was speechless for a moment after being refuted. After a while, he asked again, "Then whose child is in your belly? Is it really your ex-husband's?"
Ye Huanhuan said calmly, "Does it matter whether it is or not?"
"What about Tang Shao? Aren't you with him now? Does he know you're pregnant? Does he know that the child in your belly is your ex-husband's?"
Ye Haiming's questions came one after another, but Ye Huanhuan's attitude remained calm: "He doesn't know."
Ye Haiming was furious. He couldn't imagine what the consequences would be if Tang Yi found out that Ye Huanhuan was pregnant. He would probably stop the Millennium Mountain project immediately.
So he said urgently to Ye Huanhuan, "If that's the case, why don't you get rid of this child? What's the point of keeping it?"
Ye Huanhuan firmly refused: "I will not abort this child!"
"You bastard!"
Ye Haiming growled, "Do you know how much economic loss it would cause the Ye family if Young Master Tang found out and used this as an excuse to stop the Millennium Mountain project?"
Ye Huanhuan didn't care at all, and she replied:
“Since he likes me, he should accept all of me. I’m just pregnant, and I haven’t done anything wrong. If he’s going to stop the project just because of this little thing, it only proves that he’s not a trustworthy partner.”
At this moment, Ye Haiming could no longer contain his emotions and angrily cursed:
"You idiot! I think you've got your brain caught in a door, how dare you say such a thing!"
Ye Huanhuan had anticipated Ye Haiming's reaction, so she had already prepared a countermeasure.
"Dad, don't worry. I'm confident I can handle this well and it won't affect either of our businesses. Besides, the child is innocent, and I won't easily abort him."
Ye Haiming glared at Ye Huanhuan, his heart filled with disappointment and anger.
"You have confidence? What makes you so confident? Do you think Young Master Tang will spoil you like your mother and I do?"
Ye Huanhuan straightened her back and looked at Ye Haiming with a firm gaze.
"Dad, this is my own life, and I will take full responsibility for it. I will definitely keep the child, and as for the cooperation with the Tang family, I will find a way to preserve it."
"you!"
Ye Haiming pointed at Ye Huanhuan, but ultimately said nothing more. "Since you put it that way, I'd like to see what your plan is!"
“Huanhuan, in our eyes, you are naturally perfect in every way. But you are divorced, and you are currently pregnant with your ex-husband’s child. Tang Shao isn’t stupid. Do you really think he would disregard all of this and insist on being with you?”
Gao Yalan had tried her best to make her words sound less sharp and harsh; she just hoped that Ye Huanhuan could see reality clearly and not be too blindly confident.
After all, there aren't many men in this world who can accept a woman carrying another man's child as their wife.
She didn't want to see Ye Huanhuan get hurt and hoped she could handle the relationship rationally. At the same time, she also hoped Ye Huanhuan could seriously consider her future and make a wise choice.
