Chapter 137

~7 min read 1,331 words

A visible look of panic spread in Li Xiao's eyes. He hurriedly put down his chopsticks and got up to chase after her.

Seeing this, Li Wanchang frowned, turned to look at his wife, and said: "You go take a look, why is Xiao Zai, a boy, rushing forward?"

"Oh, Xiao Zai and Qiqi grew up together, isn't it normal to care about her." Mrs. Li said nonchalantly, picking up a piece of char siu and tasting it herself: "This isn't greasy at all, I specifically told Wang Ma to make 'lean char siu'."

After Lin Biqi rushed into the bathroom, she locked the door for the first time, then leaned on the sink and retched vigorously.

There was nothing in her stomach; she vomited until tears came out, but only vomited some sour water.

The sudden nausea also startled her. Thinking that her period had been late for several days, her brain couldn't help but start calculating the days frantically.

It was just about a month. She didn't take that box of contraceptive pills because everything that happened at the time and Brother Li Xiao's attitude toward her made her extremely resentful and unwilling.

She had a component of anger, but she wanted revenge more, so she deliberately didn't take it.

But at this very moment, she looked at herself in the mirror and felt uncontrollable panic.

She was only 19 years old. If she were accidentally pregnant, should she keep this child or not?

And Brother Li Xiao, would he acknowledge it?

The unknown and uncertainty plunged her into fear. She turned the faucet to the coldest setting, ignoring her exquisite makeup, and splashed it on her face frantically, trying to make herself calm down and wake up.

Until Li Xiao at the door became impatient and started knocking: "Lin Biqi, what are you doing? Open the door!"

Lin Biqi's body trembled. She pulled two face towels in a flustered manner to wipe her face, then turned around and unlocked the door.

Looking up, she met Li Xiao's cold and scrutinizing gaze.

"What are you doing?" Li Xiao stared at her and asked.

Lin Biqi lowered her head and whispered: "Maybe I've been losing weight too hard lately, my stomach can't handle things that are too sweet and greasy, so I'm a bit nauseous."

Although she tried her best to hide her unease, Li Xiao didn't believe her: "Don't you dare cause any more absurd things for me. That medicine, you took it, right?"

Sure enough, he wasn't here to care about her at all; he only cared about this matter.

A huge sense of humiliation wrapped around Lin Biqi. That was also her first time; she was the one who sacrificed the most!

"Do you have to treat me like this?" Lin Biqi looked up at Li Xiao with red eyes, looking at him with grief and questioning: "Do you have no love for me in your heart? Don't you know how harmful that medicine is to the body? Are you not even willing to care about me?"

But her sadness and sorrow were worthless in Li Xiao's eyes. Li Xiao hadn't forgiven her yet, so where did the pity come from?

"That was all brought about by yourself. Taking advantage of me when I was drunk, you should have been prepared to bear all the consequences." Li Xiao said coldly, leaning forward slightly to bring his face close to her, his momentum aggressive as he asked word by word: "So tell me, did you take that medicine or not?"

At this moment, the last bit of dignity inside Lin Biqi shattered. Her body swayed uncontrollably under her feet.

The next second, she suddenly reached out and pushed Li Xiao in front of her hard, shouting: "No! I didn't!"

Li Xiao staggered backward under the force and almost fell, but when he heard Lin Biqi's words, his eyes suddenly widened.

"What's wrong, what's wrong?"

Mrs. Li, who heard the quarrel, came over and looked at the two standing at the bathroom door looking at each other with strange expressions, feeling inexplicable.

"Stop fucking kidding me!"

Li Xiao only felt his head was going to explode. He reached out and grabbed Lin Biqi's wrist, looking at her with bloodshot eyes and scolding: "You're lying to me, right?"

"Xiao Zai!"

Seeing Lin Biqi in pain, Mrs. Li hurriedly stepped forward to pry Li Xiao's hand away with force, and turned to separate the two: "What are you doing? Qiqi is a girl, you can't hit her no matter how angry you are, can't you talk properly?"

Lin Biqi was heartbroken, her voice choked: "Auntie, I'm sorry, I'm very uncomfortable today, so I'll go first."

Mrs. Li glared at her son, turned around, and looked at Lin Biqi gently: "Shall I have the driver take you?"

Lin Biqi nodded without refusing. When she left, she looked at Li Xiao one last time, but there was no longer the attachment of the past in her eyes, only full hatred.

After Lin Biqi left, Li Xiao lost the ability to think, his mind full of the two sentences "she might be pregnant" and "what should I do."

Just an adult, he had never thought he would experience such an absurd thing. He was both at a loss and afraid.

"Xiao Zai!"

His father's voice suddenly sounded, scaring him into looking up suddenly, and he saw his father standing at the stairs with a stern expression, saying to him: "Come up with me!"

In the study on the second floor, Li Xiao stood at the door, while Li Wanchang stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the scene of his wife sending Lin Biqi away downstairs.

After a long while, he turned around, frowned, and pointed out: "You and Qiqi had a relationship?"

He was his father after all, this kind of thing couldn't be hidden from him.

But for some reason, knowing this from his father made Li Xiao feel less afraid. It was as if he had found a safe harbor, so he poured out all this dramatic everything.

"Dad, I bought her medicine, I just didn't want any further entanglement and trouble, I didn't want to have any relationship with her..."

Li Wanchang didn't fly into a rage, but instead looked at his son who was eager to explain everything and raised his hand to signal him to stop talking.

"This Qiqi, her intentions toward you were not simple to begin with, and she could even use such low and dirty means, heh!" Li Wanchang sneered with disdain: "Delusion of getting to the top by getting pregnant? Do you really think my Li family is so easy to handle?"

"Dad, there's no definite conclusion yet on whether she's pregnant or not." Li Xiao still didn't want to believe that Lin Biqi was really pregnant.

Li Wanchang looked at his son. He had been depressed for a long time because of his relationship with Shen Ci. As a father, he absolutely couldn't let these things torture his son anymore.

"Whether she is or not, I won't let her affect you. You don't have to worry about this, Dad will handle it for you." Li Wanchang said seriously.

With his father's words, Li Xiao felt relieved in his heart.

He nodded gently: "Thank you, Dad."

Li Wanchang said again: "Your mother shouldn't have interfered in your and Shen Ci's affairs. A few days ago, I told your mother to go find Shen Ci and have a good talk, apologize to Shen Ci, in short, stop interfering in your affairs."

"But as an elder, she will definitely feel that she has lost face. I will discuss it with her tonight and let her go see Shen Ci in these two days. Since you like this girl so much, your mother and I will no longer object."

The extra update is here.

Thanks to the babies for the monthly tickets.
