Her thoughts were in disarray, and she didn't know how to explain it.
If it weren't for the child in her womb, she would never have chosen to study abroad.
But this matter was supposed to be kept from Fu Nanxiao in the first place.
She just didn't expect that her decision would be discovered so soon after she made it.
Before she could figure out what to say, Fu Nanxiao's phone suddenly rang.
As soon as he answered the phone, he said impatiently, "Wait!"
Jiang Yilai watched him hang up the phone, pursed her lips, and whispered, "Why don't you go and do your work first..."
"Tell me your reasons," Fu Nanxiao interrupted her. "You chose not to discuss your reasons for studying abroad with me!"
Jiang Yilai's mind went blank.
She clenched her fists nervously and stammered, "I want to pursue further studies..."
"Excuse."
Fu Nanxiao interrupted her again, his eyes filled with suppressed anger: "Is it because of what the old man said today? I told you, you don't need to take it to heart. I never thought of it that way, and I don't care!"
“But that’s what others think, and that’s what I think too!” Jiang Yilai bit her lip. “Fu Nanxiao, everyone knows how I married you. On the surface, there is indeed a big gap between us. This gap isn’t something you can just ignore! I care, and my pride cares too!”
"So what!" Fu Nanxiao's voice was icy: "So you chose to study abroad. If I hadn't found out today, when were you going to tell me?"
Jiang Yilai's eyelashes trembled: "If I told you, would you agree?"
So, she wasn't planning to tell him at all?
Fu Nanxiao felt a raging fire burning in his chest. Whenever he thought of Jiang Yilai's sudden disappearance, the violent feeling in his heart surged out uncontrollably.
It almost drove him to madness.
Fu Nanxiao gritted his teeth and said, word by word, "Jiang Yilai, I will never agree to let you leave me even for a moment!"
Jiang Yilai's heart sank.
This was the worst possible outcome she could have imagined.
She tried to persuade Fu Nanxiao: "Fu Nanxiao, I'm just going abroad to study..."
Fu Nanxiao's eyes were cold: "What use do you think it is to study abroad and come back? You could earn a lifetime's worth of money and it wouldn't be as much as one deal I have!"
Jiang Yilai's words caught in her throat.
She looked at Fu Nanxiao, feeling a tightness in her chest.
Her primary reason for studying abroad was to protect her child.
But I genuinely want to improve myself.
Old Master Fu's words today were like a heavy hammer blow to her heart.
Jiang Yilai gave up on trying to persuade Fu Nanxiao.
She stared straight at him, unyielding: "So I'm going to be imprisoned by you, have people follow me, have my privacy invaded without any scruples, and be your caged bird for life?"
Her eyes were defiant: "Fu Nanxiao, I'm not doing this for you to improve yourself, I'm doing it for myself."
Fu Nanxiao stared at her intently, his dark eyes flashing with emotion.
After a long pause, he suddenly turned around, slammed the door, and left.
Inside the room, Jiang Yilai suddenly squatted down on the floor.
She was flustered and unable to think calmly.
She couldn't imagine how Fu Nanxiao would respond.
What if he is adamant about not letting me go abroad?
Jiang Yilai instinctively covered her lower abdomen with her hand, looking worried.
That night, Fu Nanxiao did not go back to his bedroom to sleep.
Jiang Yilai also slept very restlessly.
She was always awakened by nightmares, and then felt inexplicably panicked as she looked into the dark, empty room.
So she overslept the next day.
