Chapter 991: You Might Be Pregnant

"I..."

Cai Xiaotang's mind had already gone blank.

Stared at by him like this, and in the current situation, she no longer knew what to say.

Immediately after, she heard the person before her continue to ask: "Is there... anything else you want to know?"

"What else? What else did I say?"

Cai Xiaotang really did ask back immediately, the panic in her eyes no longer hidden, exposed for all to see.

Li Xiao, however, stopped answering, only staring at her fixedly, the expression in his eyes complex and impossible to decipher.

The atmosphere suddenly went quiet.

Cai Xiaotang was still pinned beneath Li Xiao, her face already flushed beyond measure; after waiting a moment, she finally said helplessly: "You first..."

"What are you afraid of?"

The two spoke almost at the same time.

Li Xiao's speaking speed was slightly faster; as soon as the words fell, he saw the expression of the person pinned beneath him change abruptly.

"What do I have to be afraid of?"

Cai Xiaotang's heartbeat was already completely chaotic, yet she stubbornly refused to admit it; as she spoke, she couldn't help but reach out to push Li Xiao's shoulders.

But she suddenly realized the two were pressed even tighter together, and she instantly became even more rigid; she couldn't continue, nor could she pull back, and could only remain deadlocked like this.

Li Xiao also paused; memories of last night swept over him instantly, and along with the impulse and desire rising at this moment, they instantly stained his eyes.

He couldn't help but curl his lips again, deliberately pressing down.

The soft sensation against his chest kept provoking his nerves; he forcibly suppressed the impulse to take the person before him, and deliberately said in a low voice: "Can I interpret your current behavior as... the effects of the drug from last night not having fully worn off yet?"

"

"I'm already fine!!!"

Hearing this, Cai Xiaotang instantly bristled; she immediately stopped caring about how ambiguous their current posture was, hurriedly continuing to reach out and push the person before her, while speaking at a rapid speed.

"I already said last night was just an accident! We aren't minors! And I was drugged by someone! So none of it counts! Everything I said was just gibberish from the drug's effects; you don't need to take it to heart at all!"

As she spoke, she used all her strength to try and push away the person pressing on her.

But no matter how hard she tried, Li Xiao remained unmoved.

Forcibly suppressing his temper to let her finish, Li Xiao finally couldn't take it anymore and grabbed her wrists, easily pulling them above her head!

"Cai Xiaotang, so your meaning is, even if it hadn't been me last night, if it were another man, you would have had that same reaction?"

He spoke almost through gritted teeth, his expression becoming somewhat stubborn.

Why was it so hard to hear a single honest word from her?

Did she really think she could hide from him?

Li Xiao's gaze was almost predatory.

Cai Xiaotang was also stopped by his question, subconsciously stammering: "N-no..."

"Then that means only I can do it, and even so, you still want to leave me?"

Li Xiao immediately pressed on, his tone aggressive.

Cai Xiaotang's pupils shrank sharply; she finally realized she seemed to have said something she shouldn't have just now.

Li Xiao, however, didn't give her a chance to speak, continuing in a hurried tone.

"Do you know that everything you said before is logically unsound? If you were truly fed up with days of living in fear, then when you saw me again, you wouldn't have hesitated, and it would be even more impossible for you to agree to some divorce trip, because as long as I am by your side, I am a ticking time bomb to you, aren't I?"

"You were so desperate to leave, yet now you dare to stay by my side? Aren't you afraid that even here, various dangers might suddenly occur? Or is it that you are planning to leave for a reason you can't speak of, and until now you are still hiding it from me, refusing to tell the truth!"

He had never shown this side of himself to Cai Xiaotang.

Leaving almost no room for maneuver, hard to the extreme.

Before, he hadn't wanted to make her unhappy, and he had wanted to respect her thoughts.

But after last night, and the environment the two were in now, this was the best time, and also the last chance.

Even if...

The methods were a bit more "despicable," a bit more "shameless"!

Because he had never intended to give her up at all!

The game of "divorce" had been played for long enough; it was time to wrap it up!

"Li Xiao, let me go first."

Cai Xiaotang's wrists struggled incessantly, wanting to break free from Li Xiao's shackles.

But it was simply impossible.

Li Xiao not only didn't let go, but held her hands even tighter, then suddenly lowered his body, directly leaving not a sliver of space between the two.

The scent of the ambiguous room from last night had not yet completely dissipated in the air.

At this moment, it seemed to become even more intense.

Meeting those bottomless eyes, Cai Xiaotang instinctively sensed danger and subconsciously held her breath.

"There is one thing, I think, you should have the right to know."

Li Xiao spoke slowly, a trace of an elusive smile on his lips.

But it wasn't as gentle as usual; instead, it was somewhat cruelly sharp.

The trace of "banditry" he had always deliberately hidden in front of Cai Xiaotang seemed to have fully evaporated at this moment.

A flash of confusion quickly crossed Cai Xiaotang's eyes.

The next second—she saw Li Xiao's beautifully shaped thin lips open and close gently.

"Yesterday, we spent a very wild night, and...

we didn't use any protection."

"What..."

Upon hearing this, Cai Xiaotang's heart skipped a beat, and a buzzing sound filled her ears!

The whole night... without... protection?

That means...

The memories of last night in her mind were a chaotic mess; she widened her eyes in terror, too shocked to even make a sound.

Immediately after, she felt a scorching palm slowly press against her lower abdomen.

Li Xiao's low, hoarse voice followed.

"Here... there might already be our child, so, what do you intend to do?"

Cai Xiaotang remained dazed, as if she hadn't heard a thing; her mind was in complete disarray.

A child...

She had never thought about this matter.

No, to be precise.

She didn't like children at all!

Except for Baobao's three little rascals, she had never imagined that one day, she would have a child of her own!

But even if she were to have one, it shouldn't be under these circumstances!

"Baby."

Seeing her dazed expression, Li Xiao couldn't help but lower his head and plant a kiss on her forehead.

His gaze, however, was not as gentle as usual, but rather somewhat resolute.

"I don't want to force you, I only wanted an honest answer, but now...

I've changed my mind. I can tell you straight: I never intended to divorce you, nor did I intend to let you leave. But since you insist on not telling me anything, I have no choice but to use some special measures."

Li Xiao's tone was nonchalant, but his burning palm had already begun to wreak havoc, suddenly pulling Cai Xiaotang's waist upward with a sharp tug!

A burning kiss landed on her chest.

Along with it, Li Xiao's voice, inexplicably carrying a hint of coldness yet alluring, sounded out.

"Getting pregnant isn't that easy... but I don't mind staying in this room for a few more days, until I truly get you pregnant... with our child."
