Chapter 123: Secret Pregnancy
After returning to the imperial capital, Zhong Nianyao did not delay and went straight back to the Zhong family.
Although she didn't feel a sense of belonging to the Zhong family, she felt okay with the presence of Mr. and Mrs. Zhong. However, she was still considering whether to move out.
She felt that she would be more comfortable living alone. However, she felt that if she proposed it, Mr. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong would definitely not agree. Therefore, this matter still needed to be considered carefully.
When she returned to the Zhong family, Mr. and Mrs. Zhong were not at home, so Zhong Nianyao went straight back to her room to have a good rest.
However, as soon as he went upstairs, he met Zhong Mengfan.
Looking at the pink aura with a hint of black energy surrounding Zhong Mengfan, a dark light flashed in Zhong Nianyao's eyes.
Before, she had mentioned to the old lady that Zhong Mengfan might have encountered a bad peach blossom. It was not known whether the old lady Zhong did not understand or Zhong Mengfan was not convinced, but this bad peach blossom seemed to still exist and was even getting worse. And——
Zhong Nianyao's gaze couldn't help but fall on Zhong Mengfan's lower abdomen. There was an obscure light flashing in her eyes. She pursed her lips and said nothing.
"Zhong Nianyao, what are you crazy about?"
Seeing Zhong Nianyao's eyes fixed on his lower abdomen, Zhong Mengfan's eyes flashed with guilt, "You keep staring at me, what do you want to do?"
"It was just a glance, why did you react so strongly?" Zhong Nianyao retracted her gaze and said meaningfully, "Or do you have some shameful secret that's why you're so afraid of me seeing it?"
"I don't know what nonsense you're talking about." Zhong Mengfan glared at Zhong Nianyao fiercely. "You're such a rich girl, but you used to chase after that illegitimate child of the Li family. Now you've run away and become wild. It turns out that without parents to discipline you, you're just wild!"
Originally, Zhong Nianyao had no intention of getting entangled with Zhong Mengfan, but after hearing what Zhong Mengfan said, she stopped walking and fixed her eyes on him. Those deep eyes seemed to be able to see through all of Zhong Mengfan's secrets.
Under that gaze, Zhong Mengfan didn't know why she felt particularly guilty. She took a deep breath and was about to say something, but then she saw Zhong Nianyao approaching her.
Looking at Zhong Nianyao who was getting closer to her, Zhong Mengfan felt a little scared. She kept backing away until her back was against the wall and she could not retreat any further, then she stopped.
Then, she saw Zhong Nianyao's raised right hand. She was startled and spoke directly, "Zhong Nianyao, I tell you, if you dare to hit me, my parents will not let you go."
If she encountered such a thing normally, she would definitely push Zhong Nianyao away and leave. But today, for some reason, she just couldn't think of running away.
She vaguely regretted that she shouldn't have mentioned Zhong Nianyao's parents just now.
Zhong Nianyao's hand fell, but it did not fall on Zhong Mengfan's face, but on Zhong Mengfan's lower abdomen.
Zhong Mengfan's eyes suddenly widened, and when she looked at Zhong Nianyao, she couldn't hide her fear. Her lips trembled constantly, but she couldn't say anything. In fact, she would rather Zhong Nianyao slapped her directly.
Zhong Nianyao's hand was placed on Zhong Mengfan's lower abdomen. A smile appeared on her lips, but the smile did not reach her eyes. The words she said were even more icy. "Zhong Mengfan, you shouldn't mention my parents. Even if I don't have their upbringing, I didn't get pregnant before marriage like you! With this comparison, they should be very happy to see me now!"
"As for you, I wonder how your parents would react if they knew you were going to be a grandfather. Would they be happy? Or angry?"
After a few words, the color drained from Zhong Mengfan's face. If she hadn't been leaning against the wall, she would have fallen to the ground.
However, even so, she still forced herself to speak, "Zhong Nianyao, are you talking nonsense? If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will tear your mouth off right now."
"Whether it's nonsense or not, you know it in your heart." Zhong Nianyao shrugged and continued indifferently, "Facts speak louder than words. Whether you are pregnant or not, you can't fake it."
Zhong Mengfan's eyes were full of panic. She pushed Zhong Nianyao away and said, "You're crazy. I don't understand what you're saying at all."
After saying that, she hurried forward, ready to leave.
But after just a few steps, as if he had thought of something, he turned his head and looked at Zhong Nianyao with a fierce look in his eyes, "Zhong Nianyao, I warn you, if you dare to talk nonsense, I will not let you go."
After saying that, she left in a hurry, as if something was chasing her.
Zhong Nian Yao just laughed off Zhong Mengfan's threat. She turned around and walked towards her room.
After returning to the room, Zhong Nian Yao began to calculate with her fingers.
When she opened her eyes again, she couldn't help but frown.
She hadn't been lying just now. Zhong Mengfan was indeed pregnant. Although it was still early, she could still find out by going to the hospital.
Unexpectedly, she had only been away for more than ten days for such a thing to happen. To be precise, Zhong Mengfan had already been with that man before she left.
However, she really didn't expect that Zhong Mengfan would be so bold as to secretly conceive. This matter would definitely cause a huge uproar in the Zhong family. And, most importantly -
Zhong Mengfan really had to give birth to this baby.
It seems like I need to tell Mr. and Mrs. Zhong about this matter sooner rather than later. The longer I wait, the more likely it is that the matter will become a bigger issue.
As for Zhong Mengfan's threats, she didn't take them seriously at all, let alone be afraid of them.
Even if Zhong Mengfan wanted to retaliate, she wouldn't worry. Moreover, she had already directly exposed Zhong Mengfan today. Even if she really did nothing, Zhong Mengfan would not be at ease, and something would definitely happen.
The most important thing is that Mr. and Mrs. Zhong are truly kind to her. Although she doesn't feel a sense of belonging to the Zhong family, she doesn't want the Zhong family to cause any major scandal. Otherwise, it will still be Mr. and Mrs. Zhong who will worry.
