Chapter 19 Madam, You Are Pregnant
"sorry."
A breeze blew through the rose garden, and the hair on her forehead brushed across her drooping brows.
Corey's arms were clasped against his thighs, his body held in a tense, straight posture. He lowered his head, his facial muscles tense, and repeated stiffly for the umpteenth time, "Mrs. Yu, I'm truly sorry. I was reckless."
Ning Yan didn't say anything. He sat on the chair and watched Yu Chengbai squatting on the ground to put on his shoes. "Next time, you must wear good shoes before going out. The stones on the road are sharp and it's easy to get hurt."
"Oh, it's okay, it doesn't hurt. We grew up in the underground city, so we're pretty tough." Ning Yan propped up his face with one hand, his eyelids drooping as he sighed nonchalantly, "Even if I get kicked, what's the big deal? Who made us so cheap?"
“…”
Corey stood even straighter and stiffer, his head lowered, his face pale and pale. "I'm so sorry, Madam Yu. I really didn't know he was your brother! Please forgive me!"
Ning Yan looked up at him innocently.
Cole had his head bowed tightly. From this angle, one could only see the corners of his mouth stretched into a straight line, with a submissiveness that was totally inconsistent with his character.
This is completely different from Ning Yan's impression of Corey.
In the past, Corey was a sinister, cunning and bad-tempered villain. In his eyes, those who were beaten by him deserved it and there was no reason to argue. Incompetence was the original sin.
He obviously recognized Lan Ze today, and he even apologized properly?
That's strange too.
"Do you know my brother?" Ning Yan tested.
"I know him." Corey's attitude was extremely polite, and he kept his head down as if he didn't dare to look at him. "He and I worked together for a while, but we weren't very familiar with each other."
Yes, the one who broke four of his ribs was not familiar.
Oh.
Ning Yan couldn't help but sneer.
"Mrs. Yu, I really know I was wrong! I'm willing to apologize to your brother, and I'm willing to let him fight back twice as hard!"
Ning Yan looked at him with complicated eyes.
I haven't seen Corey in a few years. What happened? Did he get hurt or was he taught a lesson by someone? Why did he suddenly become so cowardly?
If it were before, he would definitely be shouting loudly, asking others to kill him if they had the guts, and to hold it back if they didn't.
"You go back." Yu Chengbai suddenly spoke, his voice calm and without any obvious emotion.
Neither happy nor angry, like a cool breeze gently brushing across the sleeves.
He had already put on Ning Yan's shoes, stood up, and finally faced the man who had been standing in front of him for a long time, but he had no intention of looking at him. Instead, he walked past him and walked towards the maid who was jogging towards him.
Yu Chengbai reached out and took the cloak from the maid's arms, then leaned over and carefully covered Ning Yan with it. However, he addressed Ke Lei, "You don't need to come here anymore."
His tone was neither cold nor serious, but just normal. His expression was even particularly gentle because he was facing Ning Yan.
Cole's expression suddenly turned ugly, his pupils trembling, and he looked up in disbelief, "Mr. Yu..."
"You know, I don't really like fighting. Ilok Manor isn't suitable for you." Yu Chengbai turned around and finally looked at him with a calm and peaceful gaze. "You should go back to 735."
Corey looked heartbroken.
Ning Yan was stunned for a moment and asked, "735?"
Yu Chengbai thought he was curious, so he turned around and explained to him, "It's just a small organization in the company, you may not understand it very well."
"What do you do?" Ning Yan asked knowingly.
Yu Chengbai didn't answer directly. Instead, he frowned and thought for a moment before he said thoughtfully, "A...business department, I guess."
The buying and selling of human lives is also a business, there is nothing wrong with this explanation.
Ning Yan couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. He felt that Yu Chengbai was a really interesting person - he was afraid of scaring his delicate little wife.
It's a pity that Ning Yan is not the weak little wife in his memory.
He is the top performer in the 735 human life trading department.
"Mr. Yu!" Corey suddenly spoke, looking at Yu Chengbai with a hopeful look that seemed to make him give up everything. "I don't want to go back to 735. I don't want to go back. I want to stay in Ilok Manor..."
Don’t want to go back?
Ning Yan couldn't help but think wow, now that he was dead and Moros was gone, there were only those few veteran figures left in the entire 735.
It was a good time for Corey to take power, but he said he didn't want to go back to 735?
Crazy?
Someone who used to work hard to get into management, now has a position that is within his reach, but he doesn’t want it?
Corey was eventually kicked out.
The word "drive away" may not be appropriate. With Yu Chengbai's temper, he would politely ask people to leave even if they were at odds with him.
So, Corey was carried out by the servants of Ilok Manor.
When he left, Corey was still shouting, "Mr. Yu! Sir! Please let me stay in the manor. I don't need to be a housekeeper! I just want to stay by your side. I can protect you, sir!"
Corey had such rare strength that he could knock down a large group of people with just one punch, but he didn't use any force against those frail and skinny male servants.
Only after he was completely silent did Ning Yan turn to look at Yu Chengbai and asked in surprise and curiosity, "Does he like you?"
"..." Yu Chengbai seemed a little helpless. He bent down to tidy up the hair beside his ears and sighed with a smile: "Weiwei, I don't like men, and neither does he."
Ning Yan knew that he didn't like men. She knew it when they first met.
But it's not certain about Cole. He hasn't been nice to anyone in all these years, but he gave up the 735 that was within his reach just to stay in Yu Chengbai's manor.
Maybe she really likes men.
Anyway, Ning Yan didn't believe that someone as ambitious as him would suddenly want to be a housekeeper for a small business owner, unless Cole also lost his memory.
"Sometimes, I really can't do anything with you." Yu Chengbai suddenly sighed with a smile, reached out to pull at his cloak, and whispered, "He hurt Aze, you just sent someone to call me. You ran over here in such a hurry that you even lost your shoes. What if you get hurt?"
How can I appear to be frightened if I don’t run away with my shoes?
Ning Yan reached out and hugged his neck, still pretending to be pitiful: "You didn't even see it, he suddenly rushed over and hit our Aze, and kicked Aze hard to the ground. He was scared to death, so of course I came to find you."
Ning Yan is a straight man who runs a gay bar and is very successful. He can flirt and act coquettishly with anyone and never feels any burden at all.
The same goes for Yu Chengbai. As long as we don't go to bed, it's quite interesting to occasionally act out the love story of a loving couple with him.
Who made Yu Chengbai so easy to bully?
Moreover, this man is very handsome.
He just likes to tease serious people like this and then see them blush.
"Are you scared? Terrified?" Yu Chengbai began to worry. He lowered his head to carefully examine his expression. Then, perhaps remembering his wife's former gentle and timid nature, he immediately said, "I'll call a doctor."
"..." Ning Yan was just acting coquettishly with him, wanting to hear some sweet words from him that were not in line with his personality.
But this piece of wood is not good.
The doctor quickly arrived at the manor. It was the same doctor who had witnessed Ning Yan's madness when he had just woken up. Today, he wished he could stay a few meters away from Ning Yan.
Ning Yan couldn't stand his humiliated look and sighed, "Actually, if you don't want to come, you don't have to. There are many doctors in S City, right?"
The doctor looked back at him with a look that said, "You said that easily." Then he asked a few questions as if to go through the motions. After receiving the answer, he pondered for a while and suddenly asked something else: "How is Mrs. Yu sleeping recently?"
Ning Yan exclaimed sincerely: "Very good, very good!"
He was not kidding. The faint body fragrance on Yu Chengbai must be body fragrance. It was like magic.
For several days, he slept very soundly, sleeping without any dreams until dawn.
"Madam, I've been studying Chinese medicine recently. Come, please extend your hand so I can take your pulse."
Ning Yan had an inexplicable yearning and unwavering belief in traditional Chinese medicine. Upon hearing this, he immediately rolled up his sleeves and extended his right hand.
Then she looked at him expectantly, curious about what he could see.
The doctor closed his eyes, stroked his beardless chin, and asked, "When was your last period, Madam?"
Ning Yan didn't react and looked at Aya blankly: "What period did he say?"
"It's my period, ma'am." Aya had been standing by Yu Chengbai's side after hearing his instructions before he left, paying close attention to the doctor's words. Upon hearing this, she immediately said, "Two months. I haven't had my period for two months."
The doctor suddenly opened his eyes, showing a look of surprise, and said excitedly: "Madam, it's a pregnancy pulse! You are pregnant!"
Ning Yan: “…”
Aya covered her mouth all of a sudden, as if she was pregnant, and almost cried with joy: "Madam, did you hear that? You are pregnant! You are pregnant with your husband's child!"
"..." Ning Yan's expression was wooden. After a while, he turned to look at the doctor and looked at him deeply: "Are you sure?"
"Yes, ma'am! I'm absolutely sure! You must take good care of yourself recently!"
“…”
"I'll go tell the master! I'll go tell the master the good news right now!" Ning Yan didn't have time to hold the excited Aya. He watched her run away and finally disappear at the door.
Ning Yan sat on the sofa with a constipated expression, his brain frozen.
If he said now that she was not pregnant, would Yu Chengbai drag him to the hospital for a check-up?
After the test, won’t it be clear whether you are a boy or a girl?
