Chapter 449: Liu Qingqing Is Pregnant

Lin Wei chatted with Su Mingyue all night, and Chen Yang could only make do in the guest room.

He was actually quite curious what the two women were talking about to be able to chat for so long. Too bad the villa's soundproofing was too good.

After Su Mingyue finished breakfast and left, Chen Yang immediately pulled Lin Wei back home.

"Honey, what did you and Su Mingyue talk about? You actually chatted all night."

Lin Wei quietly looked at Chen Yang and asked in a scrutinizing tone, "Husband, did you do something bad behind my back?"

"No!" The only thing Chen Yang had done to let Lin Wei down was sleeping with Liu Qingqing. But that kind of thing, Liu Qingqing probably wouldn't mention to Su Mingyue.

Lin Wei repeated her question again. "Husband, are you sure you didn't?"

Chen Yang nodded without hesitation. Lin Wei comes from a police family, so even if he felt guilty he couldn't show it.

Lin Wei saw no emotional reaction on Chen Yang's face, furrowed her brows slightly, then sighed and muttered to herself, "Whose child could that be?"

Chen Yang sensed Lin Wei definitely had something on her mind and immediately asked, "Honey, what are you talking about? What child?"

Lin Wei suddenly laughed and teased Chen Yang, "Your beloved junior Liu Qingqing is pregnant, now hiding in Hong Kong preparing for the baby. I don't know whose seed it is..."

Upon hearing that, Chen Yang froze instantly. No wonder when he went to Su Mingyue's house to pick up things that day, Liu Qingqing ate bayberries—it turned out she was pregnant.

"This child can't be mine, can it?"

Chen Yang instantly became torn. At this moment he wished he could fly to Hong Kong right away to ask Liu Qingqing the truth. But he also worried that if the child really was his, Lin Wei would never get past this.

"Husband, your complexion looks awful—are you feeling unwell?" Lin Wei had been observing Chen Yang's reaction; seeing her husband stirred by the news of Liu Qingqing's pregnancy, her mood instantly turned complicated.

"No, I'm just surprised—I haven't heard she's dating anyone!" Chen Yang forced calm and asked Lin Wei, "Isn't Su Mingyue just making things up, joking with you?"

Lin Wei told Chen Yang, "You can ask Su Mingyue yourself if she's making things up. What I care about is whether the baby in Liu Qingqing's belly really isn't yours."

Chen Yang didn't answer directly, but said, "I haven't seen her in a long time. If you don't believe me, you can ask anyone around me, including Su Mingyue."

Upon hearing that, Lin Wei's mood improved considerably. She told Chen Yang, "Actually, if the child really is yours, it wouldn't matter. Your aunt has always wanted to add an heir to the Chen family. I'm busy with work and have no time for a baby. Letting Qingqing take one for the team would also be fine."

Chen Yang gave her a roll of his eyes. Given his understanding of Lin Wei, even if the baby in Liu Qingqing's womb were his, he couldn't admit it.

"Honey, you have to go back to Qingshui this afternoon again—why don't we try again?"

"Forget it! We've tried so many times..." Lin Wei let out a soft sigh, feeling a bit discouraged, and said, "Maybe we're just destined not to have children."

Chen Yang comforted her, "Maybe it's because your work pressure is too high. Try a few more times, and you'll surely succeed someday." After saying that, he directly pulled Lin Wei into the bedroom.

Perhaps out of guilt, Chen Yang performed with especial vigor this time.

Of course, he also genuinely wanted to have a child with Lin Wei as soon as possible.

With hundreds of billions in family wealth, it would be too wasteful if there were no heir to inherit it!

After their passionate interlude, Lin Wei's mood clearly improved a lot. She told Chen Yang, "Husband, I'm not distrusting you. I'm just a little angry—how can someone flat-chested get pregnant while I can't?"

Chen Yang didn't know how to answer that for a moment. In his impression, having a child shouldn't be too closely related to a woman's breast size.

"Honey, we're still young, no rush!"

"Not rush?" Lin Wei gave Chen Yang a serious look and asked again, "You're sure you're not in a hurry?"

Chen Yang laughed helplessly and asked her, "So should I be rushing or not?"

Lin Wei slowly sat up, pulling on her clothes while saying to Chen Yang, "That's the Chen family's business—I don't care about it. Anyway, if I get pregnant, I'll have the baby for you. If I don't, don't pressure me."

"All right, I won't pressure you." Chen Yang was actually quite content too. At least the current Lin Wei has been changing for him. When they first got their license, she had zero desire to have children.

After Lin Wei finished dressing, she suddenly shifted the conversation, eyeing Chen Yang suspiciously and said, "Husband, you're not in a hurry? Could it be that the baby in Qingqing's belly really is yours?"

Chen Yang felt like vomiting blood. How had they gone around in circles only to end up back here?

"Honey, why don't you take a day off and we go together to Hong Kong to ask Qingqing? If the baby in her belly really is mine, you can do whatever you want!" Chen Yang decided to go all-in. After all, he'd been with Lin Wei for almost a year, while he'd only been with Liu Qingqing once. Statistically, it couldn't be that much of a coincidence.

Lin Wei directly rejected Chen Yang's suggestion.

"Husband, I'm not going to Hong Kong. If you want to know whose child that is, go ask yourself!"

"I don't have that kind of free time. Over here in Xingcheng I just landed a project worth hundreds of billions, with a pile of things waiting for me to attend to!"

Chen Yang's bet was that Lin Wei wouldn't go to Hong Kong to confront Liu Qingqing. Since Lin Wei isn't going, he's even less likely to go looking for trouble.

Even if he were curious, he could wait until Liu Shijie returns to Xingcheng and then inquire indirectly.

After lunch, Lin Wei returned to Qingshui City together with Lin Jianguo and his son.

But Chen Yang's mind was full of the baby in Liu Qingqing's womb.

She picked up her phone intending to confirm with Su Mingyue whether Liu Qingqing was really pregnant. After thinking it over repeatedly, she decided to give up.

Su Mingyue's stance has always been fickle—sometimes helping Liu Qingqing, sometimes helping herself, sometimes helping him. If she were to report her inquiries about Liu Qingqing to Lin Wei, that would cause big trouble.

After thinking it over repeatedly, Chen Yang finally called Guo Jin in Hong Kong.

"Boss Chen, long time no see—I heard you made a fortune again, congratulations!"

"Manager Guo, same to you. Miss Zhu said you just bought a two-thousand-square-foot big house."

"Hehe, without you taking me to play the stocks, I could never afford such a house in this lifetime. When are you coming to Hong Kong? I'll treat you to a big meal."

"I have a big project to handle right now, so I can't get away. Still, there's something I'd like to ask you for help with."

"Boss Chen, say what you need—I'll go through fire and water to make sure I get it done."

"It's not a big deal. I have a friend named Liu Qingqing—you probably know her. She's settled in Hong Kong, unfamiliar with the place. If you run into her there, please look after her for me."

"Boss Chen, rest assured—I will definitely take good care of Miss Liu."
