Chapter 12 Chapter 12 I'm Thinking of Marrying You
Before Ruan Xiangyi fell completely, Zhao Qingshi caught her and Ruan Lingyu exclaimed.
Ruan Fu didn't know why Zhao Qingshi came over. He felt a little embarrassed after encountering such a family background once or twice. "A harmonious family brings prosperity" is a coat that businessmen wear to the outside world. Now that the coat was ripped off, he asked with shame, "Why did Mr. Zhao come over so suddenly?"
"Ruan Xiangyi?" Zhao Qingshi lowered his head and called the person in his arms. Seeing that Ruan Xiangyi did not respond, his lips straightened and a gloom appeared between his brows. He took off his clothes and put them on her, then picked her up effortlessly.
He was about to leave with the person in his arms, but Grandma Ruan stopped him: "Zhao boy, this is my family's business, it's not your turn to interfere."
Zhao Qingshi stopped and looked at everyone present with cold eyes, his aura surging with fire. "I am the father of the child. You'd better pray that nothing happens to her, otherwise expect to receive my lawyer's letter."
Seeing Zhao Qingshi carrying Ruan Xiangyi away, Ruan Lingyu screamed loudly: "Why! Why did she do that?"
Lin Manshu realized it belatedly and fell on the sofa. Ruan Fu did not expect the final result to be like this. He had tried his best to build a bridge with the Zhao family, but later the two families cancelled the engagement. He did not expect that after going around in circles, he would still be in the same situation.
"Lingyu, when did your sister and Zhao Qingshi start dating?" he asked.
"How should I know how that bitch hooked up with him!" Ruan Lingyu pounded the table and broke down crying. She refused to believe what was happening before her eyes. Why? Why did she, Ruan Xiangyi, get the upper hand?
Today was an auspicious day for weddings. The sun had risen in the morning, but by afternoon, dark clouds had covered the sky and thunder had roared. Ruan Xiangyi awoke to find herself in an unfamiliar room. It was large, with an orange wall lamp on. She shifted and realized she had an IV on her hand.
Where is this? She wanted to sit up in confusion, but the door was pushed open and a strange woman walked in. Ruan Xiangyi moved back and looked at her warily.
"Who are you?"
Seeing her nervousness, Shen Jiaxue smiled gently: "Don't worry, I'm the doctor that Mr. Zhao invited."
Ruan Xiangyi thought slowly about who the Mr. Zhao she was talking about was.
After a while, Zhao Qingshi walked in and Ruan Xiangyi widened her eyes.
Seeing that she had woken up, Zhao Qingshi asked Shen Jiaxue: "How is she?"
"She's been given glucose. There's nothing wrong with her body. She just fainted from being too emotional and not eating for a day and a night." She handed him two tubes of ointment. "She has scars on her back from being beaten. Apply this ointment twice a day for a week."
"Thank you." After taking the ointment, Zhao Qingshi walked over and sat down beside the bed. Ruan Xiangyi pinched the quilt nervously.
"Are you hungry?" he asked.
It was such an unprecedented tenderness that Shen Jiaxue thought she had misheard.
Ruan Xiangyi glanced at the person behind him anxiously. Zhao Qingshi turned around and said, "You go back first."
After Shen Jiaxue closed the door and left, Zhao Qingshi looked at her and said, "There are no outsiders here now."
Ruan Xiangyi's nervousness did not relax: "Why are you here?"
“This is my home.”
Ruan Xiangyi choked for two seconds, then changed the topic and asked, "Then why am I here?"
"You fainted at Ruan's house, and I brought you back."
Ruan Xiangyi was stunned for a moment. She vaguely remembered seeing a figure walking towards her before she fainted, but she never expected it to be him. Suddenly, a cold hand touched her forehead, and she came back to her senses. He was testing her temperature. Ruan Xiangyi pushed his hand away and asked nervously, "Aren't you getting married today?"
"You remember it so clearly?" He said casually, took out his phone, tapped it twice, and handed it to her, "See if there's anything you want to eat. I'll have them deliver it."
Ruan Xiangyi was in no mood to eat. She threw off the quilt and was about to get out of bed, but Zhao Qingshi stopped her: "What are you doing?"
"I can't stay here. I want to go back."
"Go back and get beaten again?"
"Zhao Qingshi, we can't do this."
"What?"
"We agreed on that day."
"Not meeting?"
"Um."
"Ruan Xiangyi." Zhao Qingshi bit the three words and slowly raised his eyes, his patience exhausted. "I haven't settled the score with you about this matter yet, but you brought it up first."
Ruan Xiangyi suddenly had a strong premonition that the worst-case scenario had happened again.
"Why didn't you tell me you were pregnant?" Zhao Qingshi looked at her with a darker look in his eyes. "You even told me we'd never see each other again. What's the matter? Do you think I'm that irresponsible man?"
Ruan Xiangyi shook her head: "I just don't think it's necessary."
Zhao Qingshi sneered: "Your speech is becoming more and more sophisticated now."
“…”
Ruan Xiangyi quietly raised her eyes and asked hesitantly, "Then...how did you know?"
She felt like she was broken down by the fate that hurt her. When she didn't know, people around her didn't notice anything unusual about her. It had only been a few days since she found out, and everyone who should know knew.
"Think about it yourself. Talking about you forgiving me and not wanting to meet again, doesn't that sound strange?" Zhao Qingshi sneered. "We've met so many times before, but you never mentioned it."
She continued to ask: "And then?"
"I asked someone to check it out, but I didn't expect to find such a big surprise."
“…”
From his tone, it seemed like this was something worth being happy about. She felt like vomiting. She had clearly taken birth control pills, so how could she still get pregnant?
She frowned.
Zhao Qingshi looked at her furrowed brows and thought of the abortion appointment call she had made at the hospital at noon. He felt a surge of depression for no reason. "Ruan Xiangyi, such a big thing happened, and you never thought of asking me for an explanation? You're so clueless, I don't know how you got a job at a TV station."
Ruan Xiangyi looked at him, speechless. How could she not have thought about it? At that time, she even thought about dying with him.
"You just stay here for the next few days," he said firmly, "I'll take care of this matter, and you're not allowed to go anywhere until it's done."
"But..." He interrupted her, "No buts."
Just as she finished speaking, she heard someone knocking on the door. Zhao Qingshi closed the door and left. Before leaving, he gave her a reassurance: "I'll take care of everything. Just stay in your room."
Zhao Qingshi opened the door, and just as he did so, he was met with a slap in the face. Xun Yin, with the red flower still on her chest, said, "Zhao Qingshi, what do you mean? What did you promise me the other day? And what did you do today? You canceled the wedding just like that. Do you even care about me?"
Zhao Wen also got angry this time, his face sullen. "Zhao Qingshi, you're a mature adult. If you say you don't want to get married, then don't get married. What do you want the woman to think?"
"I will personally go to the Li family to cancel the engagement. I will meet any demands they make." Zhao Qingshi said, "I cannot marry Li Wenyin."
"You don't want to marry her? Who are you going to marry?" Zhou Xunyin asked in a shrill voice.
"I have my own plans."
"You've grown so independent, I can't control you anymore?" Xun Yin threatened. "If you don't marry Wen Yin, you'll never recognize me as your mother again!"
"Is it because of that woman?" Xun Yin suddenly noticed a pair of women's shoes on the ground and walked in angrily. "You brought that woman home? Call her out. I want to ask her how her mother raised her to destroy other people's families!"
Xun Yin was about to push the master bedroom door open when Zhao Qingshi stopped her: "Mom! Have you had enough of this?"
Xun Yin slapped him in the face again: "Zhao Qingshi, if you don't give me an explanation today, no one will have a good life today!"
There was a stinging pain on his face. Zhao Qingshi was about to speak when the door behind him suddenly opened and Ruan Xiangyi walked out.
The world is quiet.
"Why did you come out? Didn't I tell you not to come out?" Zhao Qingshi blocked Xun Yin's sight, "Go in quickly."
Ruan Xiangyi shook her head at him. She had heard everything they said, and she couldn't sit there and listen to them quarreling peacefully.
"So it's you." Xun Yin didn't pay full attention to her the first time, but now that she was looking closely, she realized that she looked so seductive. Now it all made sense. "Your Ruan family has a good plan. You knew we didn't like Ruan Lingyu, so you sent you here to seduce Zhao Qingshi. Do you really think we are a rag collector?"
Zhao Qingshi's face turned cold, and he suppressed his temper: "Mom, all of this is my fault. If you want to hit or scold me, just go to me. Why say such harsh words? What did she do wrong?"
"You're doing it," Xunyin said sarcastically. Then, with her sharp eyes, she noticed the medical record on the table. It was Zhao Qingshi who had someone retrieve it. She picked it up and took a look at it. Her eyes almost went blurry. With shaking hands, she asked angrily, "Zhao Qingshi, tell me, what is this?"
Zhao Wen noticed something was wrong and took it to look at it. He said seriously, "Zhao Qingshi, this is not a joke."
Zhao Qingshi suddenly curled his lips: "Why would I play such a joke on you?"
Zhou Xunyin stood there motionless for a while, and there was no hope in her voice anymore: "You are the same as your father."
Zhao Wen also used this trick against her. One year after marrying her, he told her that his ex-girlfriend had given birth to a child for her and he promised not to take the child back. It was not until his ex-girlfriend died of illness that he finally took Zhao Yaozi back.
Ruan Xiangyi tugged at Zhao Qingshi's sleeve, motioning him to step aside, and then she took a step forward. "Auntie, Uncle, I'm sorry to meet you under these circumstances. Don't worry, I will arrange for the abortion, and I won't interfere in Zhao Qingshi's life. I promise you."
Zhao Qingshi frowned.
Xun Yin's expression didn't improve, and she sarcastically asked, "How much money do you want this time?"
Ruan Xiangyi shook her head: "Please believe me."
Xun Yin left in disappointment.
Zhao Qingshi's phone kept ringing since morning. He didn't have time to deal with it at the time. After ordering some light food for Ruan Xiangyi, he went into the study and never came out. Ruan Xiangyi couldn't sleep, so she sat on the sofa in the living room for two hours. At night, her morning sickness, which hadn't lasted for a long time, came back, and she ran into the bathroom.
Zhao Qingshi came out of the study after finishing his work. Seeing the door of the master bedroom was open, he walked in. Hearing some noise coming from the bathroom, he frowned and walked in quickly. Seeing Ruan Xiangyi lying on the toilet, he squatted down and patted her back with concern to relieve her morning sickness.
He thought of the time in Yuyao when she felt so uncomfortable too. He should have thought of it earlier.
After she finished vomiting, Zhao Qingshi went out and poured a glass of water in. Ruan Xiangyi took it and said, "Thank you."
Zhao Qingshi waited until she finished drinking the water and asked, "Is it always this uncomfortable?"
"Fortunately, not every day."
"Give it to me." Zhao Qingshi took the water cup from her hand and put it aside. Ruan Xiangyi wanted to leave the bedroom. The smell of him was too strong, and she was not used to it. Unexpectedly, Zhao Qingshi put one hand on the door frame, blocking her way, looking down at her and asking: "Ruan Xiangyi, have you ever thought about following me..."
Before he could finish his words, Ruan Xiangyi quickly interrupted him: “I haven’t thought about it!”
Zhao Qingshi's eyes became dark: "I haven't finished speaking."
"Neither of them. This was just an accident. We shouldn't let this kind of accident continue." Ruan Xiangyi raised her eyes, her gaze firm. "It's not fair to us."
"So what would be fair? Pretend the child doesn't exist and then each of us get on with our lives?" Zhao Qingshi asked. "Would that be fair to the child?"
"He shouldn't have existed in the first place." Ruan Xiangyi said heartlessly.
The atmosphere was silent. Zhao Qingshi suddenly laughed out loud at an inappropriate time. Ruan Xiangyi looked at him in confusion.
"You're right, he shouldn't have existed in the first place." Zhao Qingshi stopped laughing, "But do you know what I was thinking just now?"
Before she could ask, he met her eyes and said, "I'm thinking about the consequences of marrying you."
