Chapter 263 Would it be too selfish to leave the child behind?
In this setting, everyone seeks out people with privileged family backgrounds to chat with; those in the entertainment industry are probably the most looked down upon.
Because Lu Wanxing was pregnant, she went straight to a place to sit down when she arrived at the scene.
"Xingxing, what do you want to eat? Tell me and I'll get it for you."
Lin Qiao asked from the side.
"It's okay, I'll just have some cake. I can't eat too much, I'm afraid of going too high on sugar."
Lu Wanxing said with a smile.
Lin Qiao helped her put a few cakes in front of her, and then sat down herself.
"Go ahead and attend your social engagements. I can manage on my own."
"Forget it, I'll stay with you. Right now, the world is vast and you're the most important person. As for social engagements, don't we have enough of those already?"
Lin Qiao didn't leave immediately. Instead, she sat down next to Lu Wanxing, and the two began to talk quietly.
Bo Sinian hadn't originally planned to come tonight, but when he heard that Lu Wanxing had gone out tonight to attend some kind of banquet, he guessed that she would come here.
He immediately tidied up and prepared to attend the banquet, but unexpectedly, he ran into Xiao Xiao at the door.
She was with the Xiao family, and when she greeted him, Bo Sinian couldn't show any displeasure because of the elders present, though his expression wasn't exactly pleasant either.
Xiao Xiao seemed oblivious to his expression, and walked over to Bo Sinian's side, then gently took his arm.
"Brother Nian, I didn't expect you to come too. Let's go in together. I heard that a lot of big names in the fashion industry are here tonight."
Bo Sinian withdrew his hand without making a sound, then nodded lightly.
She didn't refuse after all, nodded to Xiao's parents, and left.
After leaving, he quickly walked a few steps, clearly not wanting to have any connection with Xiao Xiao.
Xiao Xiao's face turned red with anger when she saw him like this.
Do you despise yourself that much?
Or is it because of what I said to Lu Wanxing that they treated me this way?
"Brother Nian, are you still angry with me?"
After saying that, she still shamelessly stepped forward and took his hand.
The commotion they made attracted a lot of attention.
After all, Bo Sinian is someone who can be recognized at a glance in a crowd, and with a cute little person by her side, people can't help but think of the news that Bo Sinian had previously exposed about taking a pregnant woman to a prenatal checkup.
People couldn't help but start discussing it quietly.
Lu Wanxing happened to see Bo Sinian as well, but all she saw was Xiao Xiao clinging to his arm.
A sarcastic smile involuntarily appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Is this what they mean by "it doesn't matter"?
Lin Qiao also noticed Lu Wanxing's gaze. When she saw Bo Sinian pulling and tugging at another girl, she couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Who is that girl?"
Lu Wanxing shook her head. Someone sat down next to her and happened to be discussing the matter as well. Immediately, someone spoke up and said, "This is the little princess of the Xiao family. You don't know, the Xiao family dotes on her. Now that she has taken a liking to President Bo, the two families may be planning a marriage alliance. You've seen that the two families have a lot of cooperative projects recently, so good things are probably coming soon."
"Really? Didn't the news break a while ago that CEO Bo took a pregnant woman to a prenatal checkup? Does the Xiao family not care?"
"It's not that we don't care, but aren't these kinds of things common in wealthy families? As long as it doesn't happen in front of everyone, they usually turn a blind eye. Besides, these girls kept outside are ultimately useless; they can only be mistresses, to be teased when they have nothing better to do. How can they compare to the children from respectable families?"
These words were extremely grating to Lu Wanxing's ears.
After all, she doesn't care about herself, but she would be really upset if her child was called an illegitimate child by others.
She felt a tightness in her chest and even began to doubt whether it was right or wrong for her to keep the child, and whether she had been too selfish.
The child has a father, but cannot acknowledge him because he may have other children; she is not his only one.
Thinking about this, Lu Wanxing had the idea of taking the child back to Country A.
Perhaps once they reach the other side, no one will know who the child's father is. People might just think the child is an orphan, but they wouldn't suspect that the child is illegitimate...
"Star?"
Lin Qiao looked at her with some concern and called out softly.
Lu Wanxing shook her head, indicating that she was fine.
She simply said in a low voice, "Do you think it's a little selfish of me to leave the child behind?"
After saying that, he fell silent, while Lin Qiao frowned beside him.
"How could that be? This is your child, you have the right to keep her. As for what happens next, don't worry, there are so many godmothers and godfathers, aren't there? We will definitely not let the child suffer any injustice."
After Lin Qiao finished speaking comfortingly, Lu Wanxing just smiled faintly.
Han Xiulin had seen the news before, and Lu Wanxing said that she had returned to China, so he couldn't go abroad to visit her.
I came to the banquet and unexpectedly saw her wearing a mask, sitting in the corner. I wouldn't have noticed her if I wasn't paying attention.
He immediately walked over and handed her a glass of milk.
"Long time no see."
Han Xiulin smiled, his eyes filled with surprise at seeing her.
Hearing the sound, Lu Wanxing looked up, glanced at the milk in front of her and Han Xiulin's face, and then smiled as she accepted it.
"Long time no see. You seem to be busy again."
Lu Wanxing joked.
Han Xiulin had previously said he was very busy, but back then he was going abroad to find me and he reported on the situation every day. Later, he suddenly became busy and reported less, and would complain a few times when he had nothing to do.
I was so busy with work that I couldn't find Lu Wanxing in the end, and she had already gone back to China.
"Yes, you've definitely gotten busy. I guessed it when you came back to China. Are you planning to stay here now?"
"Yes, we'll stay put in the country and stop running around."
Lu Wanxing said with a hint of helplessness.
Han Xiulin looked at her belly and said, "That's good. The child will be born in China, where everyone is familiar with the family and can take care of the baby."
The two started chatting. Han Xiulin had actually seen Bo Sinian earlier, but he wouldn't mention another man in front of the girl he liked.
She wouldn't let Bo Sinian benefit from this; after all, he's a very busy person now, so let him be busy. Lu Wanxing asked her to help take care of him.
The two chatted casually, and it seemed that Bo Sinian had also noticed Lu Wanxing.
The main reason was to avoid Xiao Xiao's harassment and social obligations, so he deliberately found a corner to hide in.
I never expected to see Lu Wanxing...
