[Chapter 490 I Know You Are Lying to Me]
Lan Yuanzhou watched Lin Yin and Lin Yuan walk into the Huo family's gate, and stood there for a long time without moving.
As the night deepened, he leaned against the car door and lit another cigarette.
As the cigarette butt flickered, he recalled the scene when he first met Huo Nian on the set three years ago.
That day she was wearing a white dress, standing in the sun and smiling at him, her eyes curved into crescents.
She was so naive at that time that she didn't even dare to hang on wires. He taught her step by step.
"Brother Yuanzhou." Chen Xueyi's voice suddenly sounded behind him.
Lan Yuanzhou frowned and put out his cigarette, "Why are you here?"
"I...I'm worried about you." Chen Xueyi bit her lip, "Did Huo Nian...misunderstand something again?"
Lan Yuanzhou said nothing, his eyes fell on the jade bracelet on her wrist.
That was the birthday present he gave to Huo Nian last year.
“This bracelet…”
"Ah, this." Chen Xueyi covered her wrist in panic, "It's... a replica I bought."
Lan Yuanzhou's eyes turned cold, "Tell the truth."
Chen Xueyi's tears welled up instantly, "Yes... Huo Nian threw it away. I wanted to return it to her, but she said it was disgusting to look at and she didn't want it, so I wore it."
Lan Yuanzhou clenched his fists until his knuckles turned white. How could she just throw away the gift he gave her?
He had specially gone to an auction to buy this bracelet for her.
He turned around and was about to go to the Huo family, but was stopped by Chen Xueyi.
"Brother Yuanzhou, don't go! Huo Nian is emotionally unstable right now, what if he hurts the child..."
Lan Yuanzhou turned around abruptly, "What did you say?"
Chen Xueyi covered her mouth, as if she had let something slip. "I...I heard that Huo Nian is pregnant."
Lan Yuanzhou's head buzzed.
He shook off Chen Xueyi's hand and strode towards the Huo family.
When he arrived at the Huo family, he rang the doorbell.
Lin Yin opened the door and saw Lan Yuanzhou standing at the door with a gloomy face.
"Where's Nian Nian?"
Lin Yin blocked the door, "She doesn't want to see you."
"Cousin, please move aside." Lan Yuanzhou said in a hoarse voice.
"Brother Yuanzhou!" Chen Xueyi caught up.
Huo Nian walked down the stairs and saw Chen Xueyi behind him. His face turned cold, "Lan Yuanzhou, what are you doing here again? Go away."
Lan Yuanzhou stared at her belly and asked, "You are pregnant. Is the child... mine?"
Huo Nian was stunned. How did he know?
She bit her lip and denied, "No."
"You lied to me." Lan Yuanzhou stepped forward, "Why didn't you tell me?"
"Tell you what?" Huo Nian sneered, "Tell you how Chen Xueyi framed me again and again? Tell you how scared I am? Or tell you that I'm not sure if you will believe that this child is yours?"
Lan Yuanzhou was stunned. "Why do you think so? Of course I won't doubt you."
"Haha." Huo Nian sneered, "You won't doubt me. Have you doubted me enough? Last month, Chen Xueyi told you that she saw Gu Chen enter my room in the middle of the night. I explained that it was because the director changed the script temporarily and we had to shoot early the next morning. We had to rehearse the scenes in advance, so he came. Do you believe it?"
"You didn't write me a letter, and told me to delete Gu Chen and cut off our relationship. I didn't agree, so you went into a cold war with me for half a month."
"Lan Yuanzhou, you never believed me."
After saying this, Huo Nian's eyes turned slightly red, and he felt very aggrieved.
"Niannian." Lan Yuanzhou frowned, but the words were stuck in his throat and he didn't know what to say.
Huo Nian's body suddenly swayed and he held onto the handrail of the stairs.
Lan Yuanzhou rushed forward to support her, "Niannian..."
"Don't touch me!" Huo Nian shook off his hand, "Lan Yuanzhou, we're done."
Lin Yin sighed, "Yuanzhou, you should go back first. Nian Nian needs to rest."
Lan Yuanzhou stood there and watched Huo Nian turn around and go upstairs.
Her back looks so thin that it makes people feel distressed.
…
In the darkness of the night, Huo Nian stood in front of the window, watching Lan Yuanzhou's car disappear around the corner.
Her hand was gently placed on her lower abdomen, and tears silently fell.
Lin Yin pushed the door open and came in. "Are you okay?"
Huo Nian shook his head, "Sister-in-law, I want to move out."
Otherwise, Lan Yuanzhou comes over from time to time, and it would be bad if my father and brother knew about it.
She didn't want to complicate things.
"Okay." Lin Yin hugged her, "I'll accompany you."
Downstairs, Lin Yuan held the cat and looked up at the lights on the second floor.
"Are Mom and Aunt Nian Nian crying?"
The housekeeper touched her head and said, "Miss, it's time to go to bed."
"But why did my cousin uncle leave?" Lin Yuan tilted his head, "Didn't he come to look for Aunt Nian Nian?"
The housekeeper did not answer, but just gently turned off the lights in the living room.
The other side.
Lan Yuanzhou drove away from the Huo family with Chen Xueyi sitting in the passenger seat.
"Brother Yuanzhou..." Chen Xueyi said with red eyes, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault. If it weren't for me, you and Nian Nian wouldn't have quarreled, and she wouldn't have even told you that she was pregnant."
Lan Yuanzhou pinched his brows tiredly and said, "It has nothing to do with you, don't blame yourself."
"I'm sorry, Brother Yuanzhou." Chen Xueyi bit her lip, as if she had made up her mind, "Nian Nian is very possessive of you and doesn't want you to have other women around you. I think I should stay away from you. I really don't want you to quarrel because of me."
Lan Yuanzhou slowed down the car, looking thoughtful, "Nian Nian is pregnant... Director Li has a play that will be filmed in Haicheng, I can introduce you to play the role of the second female lead."
What this means is that he agreed with Chen Xueyi's words.
There was a hint of disbelief in Chen Xueyi's eyes. She said that to make herself look aggrieved and considerate, thinking that Lan Yuanzhou would not agree.
I didn't expect that he actually wanted her to leave.
Just because Huo Nian is pregnant?
It seems that he cares a lot about Huo Nian's child.
How can this be possible...
Thinking about something else, Chen Xueyi still looked well-behaved. "Okay, thank you, Brother Yuanzhou. Nian Nian is pregnant. Pregnant women cannot stand mood swings. You have to accompany her and make her happy."
Lan Yuanzhou was not very enthusiastic towards Chen Xueyi. He nodded calmly, "I know."
Chen Xueyi forced a smile, but a gleam of light flashed in her eyes.
The next day, Lin Yin accompanied Huo Nian to move. Huo Nian already had an apartment outside, so he moved there without much effort.
It was three hours later that Huo Jingze learned the news.
At the home in Gubei No. 1, Huo Jingze handed the cup of water in his hand to Lin Yin who was lying on the sofa, and asked in confusion, "Why did Nian Nian move out for no reason?"
Lin Yin agreed to keep the secret and lied, "She is already an adult girl, she must have her own privacy, so she just moved out."
Huo Jingze looked at his wife who was sipping water and narrowed his eyes. "Are you hiding something from me? Yinyin."
He leaned down with his tall figure, and gently lifted his wife's chin with his fingers, "Do you know whose child is in Nian Nian's belly?"
Lin Yin's heart skipped a beat.
How could this man guess so accurately?
She looked straight at Huo Jingze and blinked her big innocent eyes, "How should I know?"
Huo Jingze kissed her lips and said, "Don't look at me innocently with those big eyes. I know you are lying to me."
"How could I lie to you?" Lin Yin felt a little guilty.
