Chapter 390 The protective and devoted woman VS The soft-hearted man who harbors a grudge 48
Jiang Zhiyi walked to the window and looked downstairs a few times. Not far away, a familiar black car was parked.
She clenched her hands, hesitant, unsure whether to go down to see him.
She stayed in the room for almost half an hour, feeling restless. After thinking for a long time, she finally decided to go downstairs.
Things always have to be faced eventually; the longer you delay, the more troublesome it will become.
Besides Fu Chengyan, she couldn't think of anyone else she could ask for help.
Inside the car.
"What do you want from me?" Jiang Zhiyi asked first, sitting in the passenger seat without looking at him.
The road outside the car was lined with tall, straight trees with lush foliage.
This road has always been quiet and secluded, with very few people and cars passing by, and occasionally even small birds will perch on the road.
Through the windshield, she saw a leisurely little sparrow, but it seemed to find it a bit boring and quickly spread its wings and flew away, completely free.
While she was lost in thought, Fu Chengyan handed her a delicate little earring.
This is something she accidentally left in the private room.
Jiang Zhiyi reached out and took it, only then remembering that she had indeed found one earring missing when she got home that day.
However, she didn't pay much attention to such an item at the time, assuming that it had been dropped on the road outside, and didn't think about looking for it, since it was just a small trinket worth tens of thousands of yuan.
"You came here today just to deliver this?" she asked.
"Hmm." Fu Chengyan raised an eyebrow in response, then took out a new pair of earrings. "I saw some nice ones at the auction a few days ago and bought them on a whim."
"Oh." Jiang Zhiyi didn't pay much attention and simply took the box and put it aside.
She fell silent again, continuing to think, unsure of how to begin.
She couldn't be 100% sure he would help her.
But she also had a gut feeling...
After what has happened these past few days, she knows very well that Fu Chengyan has not given up on her.
He probably wouldn't want to have someone else's child.
If he's willing to help her, things are very simple; it's just a piece of cake for him.
"What's wrong? Are you unhappy?" he asked.
"No." She shook her head, unwilling to admit it.
"Really? You seem unhappy." His hoarse voice carried a hint of nonchalance.
"No..." she said again, frowning. She realized that he could see right through her now.
"If you say no, then no... That's for the best." He didn't say much more, and pulled the person closer.
He touched her earlobe, leaned over to take off her current earrings and put on new ones.
However, Jiang Zhiyi immediately panicked, thinking that he was going to do something to her.
She reached out and pressed against his chest, then instinctively protected her stomach. "No!"
She called out, feeling a little anxious.
"What's wrong?" He simply hugged her tightly.
Jiang Zhiyi lay on top of him, worried that he was pressing on her stomach, but she couldn't break free at all.
"It really won't work..." She suddenly lost control of her emotions, feeling both wronged and scared.
He has already caused her a huge mess, and she has no idea what to do now, and he still wants to treat her like this...
Tears suddenly streamed down my face.
Jiang Zhiyi raised her hand to hit him, but he quickly grabbed it back.
He squinted at her for a while, clearly seeing the little movements she made while protecting her belly.
Fu Chengyan asked again, "What's wrong? Why are you in such a bad mood today? Did your good lover upset you?"
His fingers gently brushed against her face, and a tear was caught on his fingertip.
Jiang Zhiyi's chest heaved.
He keeps talking about his lover, but how good is he? Doesn't he even look at himself in the state he's in?
Seeing that he was still staring at her, Jiang Zhiyi steeled herself and decided to tell him what had happened.
"I am pregnant……"
As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Chengyan paused, his face instantly falling.
The atmosphere inside the car gradually grew cold.
She carefully chose her words, composed herself, and said, "Since you came to see me today, I have something... something I'd like to ask you for help with..."
“I don’t want this child. I’m still young, and I don’t want to have a child so early. But Ji Chen definitely won’t agree. Could you help me… help me arrange a doctor? I want to abort this child, but I can’t let him know.”
As Jiang Zhiyi spoke, her voice grew softer, ultimately revealing a lack of confidence.
Seeking help from a former lover with whom she has broken off relations to abort her current lover's child...
This kind of thing seems unreasonable and is indeed a bit embarrassing.
Fu Chengyan didn't react for the time being, as if he was angry with her.
Jiang Zhiyi thought for a moment and then said, "Only you can help me now, and I hope you can. Of course, if you're unwilling, that's fine too; I won't force you. I'll find a small private clinic myself then..."
"Shut up." Fu Chengyan interrupted her directly.
He looked at her evasive eyes, but his thoughts drifted away.
Something's not right... something's not right...
That's so strange.
for a long time.
He asked tentatively, "Do you think I'm a fool? Don't you think what you just said is false? This child isn't his, it's mine?"
Jiang Zhiyi's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly denied it, "No!"
“That’s it,” Fu Chengyan affirmed directly.
"No!" Jiang Zhiyi became even more anxious.
Fu Chengyan carefully observed all her reactions.
He's been negotiating for so many years, he's got a sharp eye, how could Jiang Zhiyi be his match?
He chuckled and said, "...You're not sure whose child it is, so you're in a hurry to abort the child and don't dare let him know. If it really were his, you wouldn't have come to me."
Given her personality, if the child could be kept, she would definitely keep it.
He had seen how she treated her younger siblings. She couldn't bear to abort such an innocent life unless she was forced into it and had no other choice.
Jiang Zhiyi's face paled slightly, and her lips moved, but she didn't know what to say in response.
The car remained quiet for a long time.
"I'll take you to the hospital for a checkup." Fu Chengyan helped her fasten her seatbelt and started the car to leave.
“If it’s mine, then get an abortion immediately. I don’t need this child. If it’s his… then you don’t need to worry about anything anymore. If you still don’t want it, I can help you arrange a doctor. Or if you regret it and want to keep his child, that’s fine too, then that’s between you and him.”
Jiang Zhiyi was stunned for a moment.
She then bit her lip and nodded, tacitly agreeing with him.
His arrangement was indeed the most appropriate.
However, she felt a strange unease that she couldn't quite put her finger on.
Perhaps it was because he was in a bad mood today, or perhaps it was because of... the decision he made to give up without hesitation just now.
However, she didn't have the energy to think about it too much; she just hoped to end these things as soon as possible.
...
A few days later.
Fu Chengyan brought the hospital's paternity test report, confirming that the child was indeed a member of the Fu family.
Jiang Zhiyi frowned as she looked at the clear text above.
"Then...then you...arrange for a doctor, the sooner the better." She clutched her clothes.
Fu Chengyan glanced at her a few times. "Since there's no doctor, you can move to my place and take good care of yourself. I'll have someone take care of you."
What do you mean by that?
"It doesn't mean anything. I want this child." Fu Chengyan's tone was calm, and there was no remorse on his face for going back on his word.
“You…” Jiang Zhiyi was somewhat at a loss.
She didn't expect him to change his mind at the last minute, or perhaps he said it on purpose, "I...I don't want it...I'm going to get an abortion."
A gust of cold wind blew in through the car window, and Jiang Zhiyi, who was dressed very lightly, couldn't help but shiver.
Fu Chengyan rolled up the car window, looked at her, and said in a tone that left no room for negotiation, "This is my child, my first child. If you dare to abort him, do you think I'll let you off? I want you to give birth to him."
He didn't want to say anything harsh to scare her, but he had no choice; this was the only way to control her temper.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, he coaxed her again: "Since you're already pregnant, then take good care of yourself. Are you really willing to abort? In a while, the baby's hands and feet will have grown. Such a tiny baby, can you bear to kill him?"
Jiang Zhiyi lowered her head and touched her stomach, a hint of hesitation flashing in her eyes.
He then pulled her into his arms and said gently, "Don't be afraid. I'll handle everything else. Just focus on your pregnancy. The baby is here, and I'm the father. If you and the baby don't rely on me, who else can you rely on?"
Jiang Zhiyi lay on his chest, still not saying a word.
She didn't say anything, but she didn't push him away either.
Like a little bird that has been soaked by the rain, it has temporarily taken refuge in a warm nest.
"This is God's arrangement, don't you think?" He gently kissed the top of her head.
Of course, this is also man-made.
That day in the private room, Fu Chengyan didn't touch her at all.
Jiang Zhiyi has a low alcohol tolerance; she got drunk after only a few glasses of fruit wine.
She was about to push open the door and go out when she was swaying as she walked, and Fu Chengyan stopped her.
Later, he kissed her, but she soon passed out in his arms.
She was so drunk that she was gesturing wildly, and it was unclear what she was dreaming about. She also complained that she was hot and wanted to take off her clothes.
After that, Fu Chengyan simply stayed by her side while she slept, without doing anything else.
Jiang Zhiyi slept all afternoon. When she woke up, she was sober and thought he had done something bad. Before leaving, she scolded him severely.
Later, she got pregnant and foolishly thought she might be carrying his child.
Fu Chengyan knew this child was crucial.
If Jiang Zhiyi hadn't been uncertain, she would never have come to him for help to abort the child.
But once she confirms that the child is that person's, she will most likely choose to give birth because she can't bear to part with the child, and then there will be no possibility between him and her in the future.
Fu Chengyan's promise to take her to the hospital for a check-up was just a pretext.
He wasn't magnanimous enough to tolerate her having another man's child.
His original plan was to wait for the fake test results, then lie to her that the child was his, and she would have to abort the child.
But who would have thought that she wasn't pregnant at all?
However, this is also a good opportunity.
Fu Chengyan looked at the forged appraisal report in front of him. This thing had to be put to use eventually.
Now he can take this opportunity to trick her back. As long as she stays by his side, everything else will be fine.
As for the other men... he has to settle some scores with them one by one.
