Chapter 316: No Choice, She Acted Like a Spoiled Child to Me

~7 min read 1,386 words

Sheng Yu held her tightly in his arms, his thumb wiping away the tears at the corners of her eyes, a lingering sense of fear haunting his heart; did she know how dangerous it was for her to be in Kyoto City if something had gone wrong?

He wanted to reprimand her, but he couldn't bear to do it at all, leaving him only with helplessness and a heart full of joy; he couldn't help but pull her closer, "You've grown bold, who let you come?"

Zhu Yuan looked up at Sheng Yu's eyes, which were even redder than her own, her heart aching, and she said righteously, "I let myself come."

There really was nothing he could do about her.

Sheng Yu let out a laugh, lowered his head to press his forehead against hers, and said hoarsely, "You."

Such an intimate gesture made Zhu Yuan feel much more at ease.

On the way back to Kyoto City, she had felt empty inside, always feeling unsettled.

She knew that at this critical juncture, she could not let him have any worries, and staying in Licheng was the best choice.

She hugged Sheng Yu tightly, her nose tip gently rubbing against him.

Sheng Yu felt at peace, savoring her reliance, when suddenly her belly moved.

His hand paused, and he only then remembered that the car speed from Licheng to Kyoto City certainly wouldn't have been very fast, but she had to sit in the car for such a long time, and he was a bit worried about her health.

"Qiao Mai, call an obstetrician over," Sheng Yu said, meeting Zhu Yuan's puzzled gaze, and explained, "To give you a check-up."

"I don't..."

Zhu Yuan was just about to say she was fine, when she heard Qiao Mai and Enzo crying with joy: "The baby is still there!"

Just now, they had been immersed in the joy of Zhu Yuan suddenly appearing at the hospital and hadn't paid attention to her belly; plus, she was being held by Sheng Yu, so they hadn't seen clearly.

It wasn't until Sheng Yu called for an obstetrician that Qiao Mai subconsciously looked at Zhu Yuan's protruding belly.

That's great!

That's really great!

The two looked at each other and hugged in excitement!

While the obstetrician was giving Zhu Yuan a check-up, Sheng Yu stood guard outside the door, not moving an inch.

He glanced at Pei Ling, who was also standing outside the door, and said with a dark face, "Didn't I entrust you to look after her? And you just brought her back to Kyoto City?"

Pei Ling's gaze fell leisurely on his face, "No choice, she acted like a spoiled child to me."

Sheng Yu narrowed his eyes.

Acting like a spoiled child!

Scanning Sheng Yu's reaction, Pei Ling sneered, "She called me brother."

The corners of Sheng Yu's mouth twitched, and just as he was about to speak, he heard a noisy commotion coming from the elevator side.

"Sister-in-law is back?"

This was Yuan Fengye's voice.

"The child is still there!"

This was Qi Jing's voice.

"Where is Young Master Yu? Is Young Master Yu alright?"

This was Situ's voice.

The three of them asked Enzo simultaneously.

Enzo suddenly felt he had a lot of face; three people asking him such an important question at the same time, as if he held some incredible secret.

He immediately straightened his posture, cleared his throat, and said, "Everyone, please stay calm."

Situ frowned.

Enzo clenched his fist against his lips and cleared his throat again.

"Get lost!" Situ gritted his teeth, leaned on his cane to look around, saw Sheng Yu outside the examination room, and limped over.

During the explosion at the Sheng Group last time, he had pushed Sheng Yu away; Sheng Yu suffered minor injuries, while his own injuries were more serious.

One leg was injured in the blast, but fortunately, it didn't hit anything vital, and it would heal after resting for a period of time.

It could be considered a blessing in disguise; Chu Xin had been taking care of him these past few days.

"Young Master Yu," Situ stood before Sheng Yu.

Sheng Yu frowned, "Why aren't you resting in your ward?"

"I heard Yu Weixiong is dead, and I was worried about your safety."

He understood Sheng Yu too well; Sheng Yu was a person who valued loyalty and affection.

He had sincerely treated Yu Weixiong as family, only to be backstabbed by him; in the whole affair, Sheng Yu was the one who was most heartbroken.

"I wasn't injured," Sheng Yu said, "Go back to your ward quickly."

Yuan Fengye's arm was in a sling, and he walked over hurriedly, "Yu Ge, how is sister-in-law?"

"She's having a prenatal check-up."

Yuan Fengye's eyes widened, and he turned to look at Qi Jing; it seemed it was true.

The child was still there!

He stared longingly at that door, and when Sheng Yu saw him, he kicked him, "What are you so excited about?"

"I'm waiting for sister-in-law to come out," Yuan Fengye sighed, "I... Song Ci wants to divorce me, and I want to ask sister-in-law to give me some advice."

Sheng Yu really wanted to curse him and say he deserved it.

Even while hospitalized with injuries, he could still attract a bunch of flirtatious women to his bedside, making Song Ci unhappy.

According to Enzo, those women had found Song Ci, which made Song Ci post on her social media, telling them to pick a time to find her together; if they could shake her position as the legitimate wife, then they were really something.

Those women actually went to find Song Ci in a group, only to be thoroughly dealt with by her; not a single woman left with a smile.

After dealing with those flirtatious women, Song Ci handed Yuan Fengye a divorce agreement without a second word.

Sheng Yu didn't want to talk to him, "Don't bother her, solve your own problems."

"Yu Ge..." Yuan Fengye begged, "This time, Song Ci is playing for real."

He wanted to say something more, but Pei Ling swept a cold glance at him, "Speak again and I'll pull out your tongue."

Yuan Fengye fell silent in a second.

He knew that Pei Ling, a loan shark, was capable of anything; of course, it wasn't that he feared Pei Ling, but he truly knew he couldn't delay Zhu Yuan's examination here.

Yet in his heart, he was thinking about the matter of Song Ci.

He wanted to say something more, but Sheng Yu just said indifferently, "She was playing for real from the very beginning; it was you who didn't grasp it. What's the use of saying these things now? The wife is one you lost yourself, so find her back with your own ability."

Yuan Fengye stood frozen on the spot.

Scenes flashed through his mind from when he and Song Ci got married until now, and how many things he had done to anger Song Ci.

At the beginning, he just wanted to use marriage to bind Song Ci, and then do some things he thought were revenge against her, making her the "cuckolded wife" known to everyone in Kyoto City.

Although none of those things were real, they were just illusions he created purely to disgust Song Ci, but to Song Ci, those things were all real, along with the hurtful words he had said.

Especially since Sheng Yu said that Song Ci was serious from the start.

Those things he thought wouldn't hurt Song Ci had each landed like a knife on her.

And he had never thought that he would actually have a day where he fell in love with Song Ci.

When Song Ci threw a divorce agreement at him, his mind had gone blank.

He had thought that since Song Ci loved his money so much, she would definitely not leave him.

He had never thought that Song Ci would feel pain, or feel disappointed.

Yuan Fengye stood outside the examination room, lost and dejected, until Zhu Yuan finished her examination and came out; when he saw Zhu Yuan, the words he originally wanted to ask for her help with were stuck in his throat.

Losing Song Ci was his own fault.
