Chapter 2042: Marriage, There's Nothing Wrong With That

However...

The expected collision did not happen.

Wei Yangyang only felt her body lighten, and then, with a dizzying spin, she was wrapped into a warm embrace!

On the other person's body, there was a scent familiar to Wei Yangyang.

The sense of security he provided also made Wei Yangyang deeply yearn for him.

Wei Yangyang guessed who this person was.

But... how could he be here?

Wei Yangyang cautiously raised her head. Then, she collided with a pair of deep eyes.

It really was Li Xingyan!?

In this instant, Wei Yangyang felt as if she were dreaming!

Looking at Wei Yangyang's panicked appearance, Li Xingyan felt heartbroken.

But the moment he thought about how this woman had carried a secret, left without a word, and had just nearly gotten hurt...

A ball of rage in Li Xingyan's chest "whooshed" into flames!

He even roared at Wei Yangyang: "Why were you standing there like a fool waiting to be hit? Where did all your previous Self-defense Technique training go!?"

"I, the things I learned are for defending against people."

"Then couldn't you have rolled to the side to dodge it first? Didn't Su Kexuan teach you that move before!"

"But if I did that, I would have hit my stomach."

"Then just take the hit!"

Take the hit?

That child would have been knocked away instantly!

Wei Yangyang couldn't let it go and wanted to argue with Li Xingyan.

But the words reached her lips...

Wei Yangyang suddenly felt so aggrieved.

And the more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt!

Finally, Wei Yangyang's lips puckered, and she just "waahed" and started crying!

Seeing Wei Yangyang's tears falling like rain, Li Xingyan panicked.

He lost the heart to lecture her and hurriedly explained: "I didn't mean to be fierce to you; I was just afraid you'd get hurt."

This excuse didn't work well; Wei Yangyang was still crying.

"If you cry too much, your eyes will swell up and you won't be pretty anymore!"

It was useless; Wei Yangyang continued to cry.

"How, how exactly can I get you to stop crying?"

Li Xingyan was truly at his wit's end.

The event manager, however, saw the situation and reminded them weakly from the side: "If your girlfriend is crying, don't explain—apologize first."

Apologize...

That's right, he hadn't admitted his mistake yet!

Inspired, Li Xingyan wiped the tear tracks from Wei Yangyang's face while saying, "I'm sorry, I was too fierce."

Wei Yangyang was still shedding tears, but she finally spoke: "You don't know anything at all!"

"Yeah, I don't know anything."

"I'm pregnant."

"Yeah, you're preg..."

Li Xingyan had intended to go along with Wei Yangyang's words to help her calm down.

As a result...

What did Wei Yangyang just say!?

Li Xingyan stared at Wei Yangyang without blinking, held his breath, and asked: "Can you... say that again?"

Wei Yangyang couldn't be bothered to repeat it.

Fortunately, the manager helped out: "Your girlfriend said she is pregnant."

"Pregnant... really, Yangyang, are you really carrying our child?"

Wei Yangyang gave a grumpy "mm."

And the next second, she was tightly hugged by Li Xingyan!

Li Xingyan's embrace was very forceful.

The breath he exhaled onto Wei Yangyang's neck was scorching hot.

As for the sound of his voice... he couldn't hide his excitement: "I'm going to be a dad, I will be a good dad and a good husband!"

"But, but I'm not ready yet."

"It's okay, we can learn together."

"So you mean the child will be born, and we will get married?"

"Of course!"

Li Xingyan said it very naturally, then realized something.

This made Li Xingyan suddenly turn serious.

He let go of Wei Yangyang and stared at her intently: "You don't want this child?"

Just a moment ago, when the danger arrived, Wei Yangyang had protected her stomach without even thinking.

This subconscious feeling made Wei Yangyang realize that she could no longer bear to part with the little life in her belly.

But...

"I don't want to get married so early!"

Wei Yangyang liked to do things according to a plan.

Clearly, marriage was not within her current plan.

So she felt anxious and also resistant.

Li Xingyan understood Wei Yangyang's thoughts.

He was silent for a moment, then asked gently, "May I know why you don't want to?"

"Because a change in status will disrupt my life plan."

"But aren't life plans meant to be disrupted?"

Hearing this, Wei Yangyang furrowed her brows slightly.

But Li Xingyan was not talking nonsense.

He began to give Wei Yangyang examples: "You only wanted to be a designer before, but now, you are already participating in company management."

"You didn't like attending social engagements before, but now, you can handle them with ease."

"You used to think I was scary and would cry if I was a little fierce, but now, we have become a couple."

"So you see, no one's plan remains unchanged; we all change as we go along the path of life. Now, you need to change your status and continue walking on this path!"

Li Xingyan's guidance was very effective, and Wei Yangyang's emotions stabilized a lot.

"Actually, there are also benefits to getting married early."

This sentence from Li Xingyan attracted Wei Yangyang's attention.

She raised her eyes and asked, "What benefits?"

"We will have much more time to spend together; we can see each other in the morning and see each other at night."

"Anything else?"

"I can cook for you myself."

"You can cook?"

Li Xingyan originally wanted to nod confidently.

But after recalling for a moment...

He smiled somewhat embarrassedly: "I can't right now, but I can learn."

Li Xingyan's smile made Wei Yangyang curl her lips as well.

She found it hard to imagine what Li Xingyan would look like busy in the kitchen.

Hmm... he should be able to handle it with ease too, after all, he is very capable at everything he does.

It's just that Li Xingyan would learn new skills for a change in status.

Then what about herself?

Wei Yangyang asked, "Is there anything I need to learn?"

"You don't need to learn anything."

"Really don't need to?"

"Mm, when you marry a wife and bring her home, you have to spoil her."

Li Xingyan was not saying sweet nothings.

He was a man of his word.

Wei Yangyang felt a bit embarrassed.

She lowered her gaze slightly and said, "You seem to have accepted the change in status very easily."

"Mm."

"Why?"

"Because I have secretly hoped for it in my heart, and now, the dream has come true."

Really?

The workaholic Li Xingyan would actually think about these kinds of things in his heart?

Wei Yangyang looked at Li Xingyan with great surprise.

And what she saw in Li Xingyan's eyes was a sincerity filled with smiles.

"Didn't you also want to raise a kitten? This time, it can be realized."

Raise a kitten?

Right, this was something said at the cat cafe last time.

Didn't expect Li Xingyan to still remember it...

Wei Yangyang pursed her lips.

In her mind, she even fantasized about the warm scene of a happy family of three, plus a kitten...

Hmm, actually, thinking about it, it seems marriage isn't so bad after all.

Wei Yangyang was no longer resistant.

She said, "We should also listen to the opinions of our families."

Li Beijue's expression darkened in an instant; he stood up abruptly and strode out.
