Yu Sheng was utterly shocked!
She looked at Li Susu, but didn't say a word for a long time.
Li Susu raised an eyebrow: "You don't seem too happy to hear I'm pregnant?"
At this moment, Yu Sheng's heart was in turmoil.
She forced herself to remain calm and said, "I'm not upset, I'm just a little surprised. If I remember correctly, you told me that you and my brother aren't really together."
Li Susu nodded without denying it and smiled, "I did say that, but will it affect my pregnancy? We're both adults. It's normal to feel happy when we feel something, isn't it?"
In today's society, this is indeed a very normal thing.
But her values wouldn't allow it, and she never expected something like this to happen to Shang Yan and Li Susu.
After all, one was a noble young man who had been devoted to his beloved for many years, and the other was a well-educated and cultured young lady from an official family.
Yu Sheng was somewhat disappointed in the two of them, or more accurately, somewhat disappointed in Shang Yan. She didn't reply to Li Susu's words, but just smiled slightly.
After her transformation, Li Susu didn't care what Yu Sheng thought of her. All she wanted now was to be with Shang Yan by any means necessary. So, she tossed her hair and said:
"I really like your brother, but he has a crush on someone else, so he's never accepted me."
That day, after I saw the photo of your brother holding you, I thought you were the white moonlight in your brother's heart, that married woman, which is why I went to the concert hall to talk to you like that.
Later, I found out you weren't. I apologize for my excessive behavior that day—I'm sorry!
Yu Sheng no longer had the energy to ask Li Susu why she and Shang Yan were pretending to be together, nor was she interested in it anymore. She just felt that her feelings for Shang Yan were a bit ridiculous.
She couldn't help but wonder, if she had known a day earlier that Shang Yan was the kind of person who was very casual about sex, would she still have had those feelings for him?
She dared to say with absolute certainty—No!
So, she should thank Li Susu for telling her she was pregnant and for telling her that she and Shang Yan were 'keeping up with the times'.
Yu Sheng originally felt ashamed, embarrassed, and uneasy because of the inappropriate feelings she had for Shang Yan, but now, all those feelings have been severed.
She suddenly felt relieved. She took a sip of water, smiled, and said to Li Susu, "I accept your apology... Also, I want to say thank you."
Li Susu asked in confusion, "Thank me for what?"
Yu Sheng naturally couldn't tell her why he was thanking her, and casually said, "It's nothing. Oh, by the way, since you and my brother aren't really boyfriend and girlfriend, and you're pregnant now, what are you planning to do?"
Li Susu touched her belly and said with a smile, "I plan to get married because I'm pregnant!"
Yu Sheng was quite surprised, "My brother agreed?"
Li Susu nodded, a look of blissful contentment on her face: "It was your brother who proposed the shotgun wedding."
Yu Sheng hadn't expected this.
Based on her understanding of Shang Yan, she assumed that he would make her abort the pregnancy after learning that Li Susu was pregnant.
Unexpectedly...
It seems he quite likes children.
Yu Sheng then asked, "When do you plan to take care of this?"
"I plan to get married before the New Year. You know my family background. If word gets out that I'm pregnant out of wedlock, I'll be criticized. So you must keep it a secret for me."
When Li Susu said her last words, she gripped Yu Sheng's hand tightly, her eyes conveying a pleading look.
Yu Sheng withdrew her hand and said, "I understand."
After thanking Yu Sheng profusely, Li Susu began asking Yu Sheng questions such as where she bought her wedding dress, took her wedding photos, and held her wedding banquet.
Yu Sheng was annoyed by her questions, so she made an excuse to go to the restroom and got up to leave.
At the food pick-up area not far away, Shang Yan appeared to be picking up his food, but he was actually keeping an eye on the two women's movements. When he saw Yu Sheng get up and leave, he glanced at Gu Ye, who was on a work call, handed the tray to the waiter, and followed her.
Yu Sheng had originally planned to go out for some fresh air, but when she came out of the restaurant and stood at the door, she suddenly felt that she might as well go back to her room.
She already had little appetite, and now she couldn't eat a single bite.
Most importantly, I don't want to see Shang Yan.
With that in mind, she decisively walked towards the elevator.
It's still early, and there aren't many people using the elevator.
She walked over, pressed the up button, and waited a few seconds before the elevator arrived.
After entering, she pressed the button for the eighth floor. The elevator doors slowly closed, and just as they were about to close completely, a hand got stuck in the middle. Yu Sheng was startled. After seeing the man standing outside the door, she froze for a moment. The word "brother" welled up in her throat, but she ultimately didn't say it.
She nervously clenched her hands at both sides and avoided looking into his eyes, but she could still see him striding in from the corner of her eye.
After he came in, he pressed the close button.
After the elevator doors slowly closed, only the two of them remained in the small space.
Although Yu Sheng had severed her feelings for Shang Yan in her heart, she still couldn't help feeling nervous when facing him.
After all, the two of them did something inappropriate last night.
She didn't care how he got out. She just wanted the elevator to get to the eighth floor quickly so she could escape this closed, oppressive, and suffocating space.
Although Shang Yan couldn't see Yu Sheng's expression, he could still sense her unease.
Actually, he felt a little uncomfortable inside.
If it weren't for last night, he could have suppressed his emotions when facing her, but after last night, his heart was always restless and surging when he faced her, as if that emotion was about to burst forth at any moment.
When the elevator reached the third floor, Shang Yan realized that if he didn't speak up soon, he would miss his chance, so he said, "Yu Sheng, last night..."
