Chapter 1380: I Only Want You (78)
He said, “What a coincidence. I’m a volunteer too. I’m in charge of teaching them a foreign language.”
Jing Chu could not tell that he would be the type to volunteer. However, she did not talk to him much since they were barely even acquaintances.
“I have a house in the same estate as yours too. We’re really fated to meet each other.”
Shaking her head, Jing Chu said, “No, we’re not.”
“What’s your name?”
“Not telling you,” she said.
“My name is Tang Zhijing.”
Remaining calm, she said, “What your name is has nothing to do with me. You don’t have to tell me specially.”
What a strong-headed girl...
Tang Zhijing was at a loss for words.
However, he was extremely curious about her.
“I’m really sorry for what happened yesterday. I know you meant well.”
Upon hearing his words, she said in a mellower tone, “Good that you know. However, your girlfriend seemed to have misunderstood me.”
“She’s not my girlfriend.”
“Not your girlfriend? Why did you get intimate with her in the car? Are you a beast? Do you just mate with a random person?” Jing Chu asked curiously.
Tang Zhijing rubbed his nose awkwardly and said, “Um... of course not. Let’s not talk about her. Are you married yet?”
“No.”
“Do you have a boyfriend?”
“Yeah, what do you want?”
“I don’t want anything. I was just asking casually.”
Jing Chu stared at him apprehensively and said, “I doubt you’ll ever get a wife or a girlfriend.”
“I have a wife.”
“...”
She was extremely surprised to hear his answer. “Is your relationship with your wife estranged?”
“I thought you would call me a scum.”
She probed, “You haven’t answered my question yet.”
“We got married for the sake of our business’ interests. We’re only married in name and we date other people in private.”
Jing Chu asked in puzzlement, “What do you mean?”
“Why do you seem to be so ignorant?” He explained the purpose of his marriage to her before continuing, “She has a boyfriend too. We stay out of each other’s affairs.”
Jing Chu remarked, “What’s the point of having such a marriage? You might as well live separately. You’ll be happier and enjoy more freedom.”
“However, not everything will turn out perfectly.”
Finding his words to have made sense, she asked, “How long have you been volunteering in this orphanage for?”
“Two years.”
“Two years? I really couldn’t tell that you were a volunteer,” Jing Chu said in surprise.
He smiled and said, “I look like a thug, don’t I? You just started volunteering here, didn’t you?”
“Yes. I’m too bored at home so I decided to come out and get some work done.”
“We’ll get to meet frequently from now on, then. I come here once a week.”
“I come here twice a week.”
“I shall come twice a week too, then. Shall we make arrangements to meet at the same time?”
She replied, “Why should I do that? We’ll come at whatever time is most convenient for us. Let’s leave each other alone.”
“...”
——
“Is he in?”
Qin Guo answered with a nod, “Yes.”
Tian Tian entered straight away. Pei Yi was in the midst of working. Upon her arrival, he took a casual glance at her and asked, “What’s the matter?”
“The IVF procedure is successful,” Tian Tian said while handing him a medical report.
After taking a glance at it, Pei Yi said, “Good to hear. You shall rest at home and nurse your pregnancy from now on.”
“That goes without saying.” Tian Tian sat down and continued, “I heard that it would do the fetus a lot of good if the father is consistently there throughout the course of pregnancy.”
“I’ll accompany you when I’m free. However, I’m very busy lately and I’m sure you know about that too.”
Knowing that he would only speak to her in such a calm manner when he was in a good mood, Tian Tian said, “Alright, then. Don’t worry about Mother. I’ll accompany her.”
“Okay, thank you. I visit her every day.”
Tian Tian watched him while he kept his eyes peeled onto the document in his hand. When she first met him, she felt that he was nothing more than just a handsome face who had nothing to his name. She had never expected him to possess so much potential, which was truly shocking.
If only I didn’t reject him back then. I wouldn’t have to go through so much trouble.
It’d be incredibly difficult to win his heart now.
“Shall we have lunch together?”
“Sure,” Pei Yi agreed.
Tian Tian sat on the couch and played with her mobile phone quietly.
She continued to do so all the way until the afternoon. They then had lunch together.
“Would you prefer a boy or a girl?”
“The gender doesn’t matter to me.”
“It matters. I want a boy. Mother wants a grandson too.”
Pei Yi rebuked, “Heaven decides the gender of the child, not you.”
“It’s alright. If this one’s a girl, I’ll give birth again.”
Pei Yi stared at her in disdain and gibed, “Do you really think I’ll let you have two of my children?”
Tian Tian said softly, “It’d be livelier at home if we have more children. I’m the one giving birth but I’m not complaining. You’re not the one suffering. Are you afraid that you can’t provide for them?”
He remained silent and ignored her. However, Tian Tian left happily, all smiles.
On the other hand, Pei Yi had a sullen expression on his face.
When Qin Guo entered to clear the dishes, he glared at Qin Guo and said sternly, “If you dare to spout any nonsense to Tian Tian when I’m not around, you’ll get it from me. You’d better keep your mouth shut.”
“Ancestor, I wouldn’t dare to do that.”
Pei Yi quipped, “There’s nothing you wouldn’t dare to do. Don’t get on my nerves. Otherwise, you know what will happen.”
Qin Guo nodded and retreated.
——
Jing Chu learned about Tian Tian’s pregnancy from the news report in March.
Tian Tian was photographed when she was at the hospital.
It was obvious that she was pregnant because she was extra careful with her step and had her hand placed on her belly at all times.
Jing Chu was perplexed.
Pei Yi has already developed a habit of sleeping here every night. How did he have the time to visit Tian Tian and make her pregnant?
She posed her question to him directly, for it felt much better to voice her qualms out instead of bottling them up.
Pei Yi placed a finger under her chin and raised it slightly. “Why? Are you getting jealous? Am I not allowed to sleep with my lawful wife?”
A sullen expression formed on Jing Chu’s face.
Well, he was speaking the truth, after all. Tian Tian was his lawful wife while she did not have a proper status at all.
She had no right to question him.
“Are you angry?”
“No...” She moved his hand away and got out of bed. “I’m going to the bathroom.”
He grabbed her and pulled her into his embrace.
“You’re angry.”
Jing Chu shook her head and said, “No, I don’t have the right to get angry at you. Master Pei, you’re wealthy and powerful. You have every right to impregnate or kill anyone. I’m in no place to interfere.”
How bitter...
Pei Yi guffawed and said, “See, you’re upset.”
“If I bedded another man and got pregnant with his child, would you be happy?”
He squinted and said, “Are we in the same position?”
“No, it’s a joyous thing for you to be a father.” She let go of him and headed to the bathroom.
