Guan Xuer had never seen Xia Yangyang so cold and forbidding before. Her tone changed as a result. “So you refuse to forgive me? Xia Yangyang, you already have so much. Why do you still have to take Haotian away from me? You can’t bear to see me happy, can you?”
Xia Yangyang was at a loss for words. What was Guan Xuer talking about? She was the one who had come between her relationship with Lu Haotian.
Why would Guan Xuer twist the facts to make it seem as though she was the evil and jealous one?
Xia Yangyang replied, “Guan Xuer, I have nothing else to say to you. Please leave as I’m working.”
She was about to turn and leave when Guan Xuer grabbed her arm. “Xia Yangyang, let me tell you something…”
“Xuer, what are you doing?”
Suddenly, a tall figure appeared at the door.
Lu Haotian marched over, with a furious expression on his face. “Guan Xuer, how many times have I warned you not to look for Yangyang?”
Instantly, Guan Xuer turned into a meek and pitiful woman. “I came to beg Yangyang for forgiveness. I kept pleading with her and told her that everything was my fault. It has nothing to do with you.”
Xia Yangyang had never known how good Guan Xuer’s acting was.
Lu Haotian’s expression and tone towards Guan Xuer softened substantially.
He spun around to face Xia Yangyang. “Yangyang, my dad got discharged from the hospital today. Let’s go to my house for dinner tonight, all right? Even if you’re mad at me, you can’t possibly be mad at my parents too, right?”
The Xia family and the Lu family were friends, and Xia Yangyang spent at least half of her childhood with the Lu family. Lu Zhenhai and Liu Xinru indeed doted on Xia Yangyang very much. They had always treated her like their own daughter.
Xia Yangyang asked, “When was Uncle Lu hospitalized?”
Lu Haotian noticed Xia Yangyang’s reaction and felt that he had a chance to make things better. “It’s the same old problem. This time, he did a coronary bypass operation. This morning, he was still asking about you and he mentioned that he hadn’t seen you in a while.”
Xia Yangyang was hesitating when Guan Xuer couldn’t keep mum any longer.
She burst out, “How about me then? If she goes with you, what should I do?”
There was a family dinner tonight at the Lu family and she was certain that Lu Haotian would come and look for Xia Yangyang. That was why she had come earlier. If Xia Yangyang agreed to go with Lu Haotian, his parents might be able to change her mind with their warm and tender words.
If that really happened, everything she had done would be in vain.
She would never allow them to reconcile.
To Lu Haotian, Guan Xuer had always been a soft and gentle girl. He hadn’t expected that she would make things worse for him. His expression hardened and he said coldly, “What does this have to do with you? Stop causing trouble.”
Lu Haotian was giving her a stern warning.
Guan Xuer replied, “I didn’t want to, but… I’m pregnant.”
Her confession was like a bolt of lightning.
Guan Xuer seemed to have transformed into another person. She took out a file from her bag and said, “This is the report to prove that I’m pregnant.”
Xia Yangyang saw that she had been pregnant for six weeks.
She asked, “Isn’t that less than fifty days?”
But that incident had happened more than three months ago.
Guan Xuer smirked as she stared at Xia Yangyang. “Yeah, we continued to meet up many times after that day.”
Lu Haotian shoved Guan Xuer and bellowed at her. “Guan Xuer, shut up!”
Xia Yangyang sneered as she turned to Lu Haotian. “Lu Haotian, do you think I’m a fool?”
Lu Haotian was flustered as he grabbed her hand. “Listen to me, Yangyang. I can explain.”
Guan Xuer, who had nearly fallen down after being shoved by Lu Haotian, had turned cold and bitter. That man had ignored the fact that she was pregnant and was only concerned with Xia Yangyang’s reaction?
And now, she hated Xia Yangyang even more.
In the midst of chaos, the door swung open.
Gu Qichen stood at the entrance, looking cold and aloof…
