Chapter 220

"Lele, you... do you have a little baby?"

Another sentence, scaring people until their souls flew away.

Qin Zhixiu pulled out a tissue to help He Lele wipe her mouth and pulled her little hand toward the door. "I'll take you to the hospital."

"No, no!" He Lele backed away in horror.

"Lele," Qin Zhixiu hugged He Lele gently. "Don't be afraid, it's okay."

"No, it's not," He Lele swallowed, trying to calm down. She had been taking birth control pills on time, and her period had just ended ten days ago; it was impossible for her to be pregnant, and even if it were morning sickness, it couldn't be this early! So—it was absolutely impossible!

Calming down her heart, which had almost stopped from being scared by him, He Lele let out a long breath and pushed Qin Zhixiu slightly, but didn't push him away.

"Zhixiu—"

"... Don't worry, it's okay." Gently patting He Lele's back, Qin Zhixiu tried to comfort others for the first time.

Feeling his sincere care without any impurities, He Lele had a moment of greed, but still firmly applied force to signal him to let her go.

"No, I'm not pregnant, I just got a bit carsick."

"Really?"

"Mm."

"Then... can I stay?"

"..." Did he have to change the subject so quickly!

The next day, early morning.

Turning off the phone alarm, He Lele struggled to get up. Her head was still a bit heavy, but her stomach wasn't as uncomfortable. After clearing her head a bit, she hesitated, but still walked to the window to look at the bike shed downstairs—the motorcycle was gone.

Finally... did he leave?

He Lele sighed lightly. Although she felt very sorry for Qin Zhixiu, she could only use this method to protect herself. She never expected Qin Zhixiu to come find her and want to live with her outside!

She wanted to call Jiji at the time and let Jiji, this manager, take Qin Zhixiu back, but as soon as she took out her phone, she remembered she only kept Mu Wei and Qin Zhixiu's numbers; she had deleted everyone else's.

Call Mu Wei?

"Are you trying to drive me away?"

Qin Zhixiu's voice seemed to have magic, every sentence shaking her heart, making people just want to satisfy all his requests!

"Zhixiu, I... why do you want to move in with me?"

"... Family should live together, shouldn't they?"

"Yes, but we—"

Looking at Qin Zhixiu's eyes, which were suppressing desire and deep pain, He Lele couldn't say the second half of the sentence. But—her head hurt so much, and her stomach was so uncomfortable, everything was chaotic as if she were in a dream.

"I'm not feeling well today, why don't you go back today, and we'll talk about it another day, okay?"

Seeing Qin Zhixiu not speaking, He Lele hardened her heart and walked to the door to open it. After a long while, Qin Zhixiu picked up his backpack and helmet and walked out the door—

"Sorry to bother you."

The soft apology was like a heavy hammer hitting He Lele's heart, making her almost blurt out a request for him to stay.

No! No way! Her life had finally gotten back on track; she couldn't repeat the same mistakes. They... weren't people she could provoke.

After closing the door, she kept waiting, waiting for the sound of the motorcycle engine, but there was none. She kept finding things to do, trying hard not to think about Qin Zhixiu's disappointed look, until she finally turned off the lights, hid under the quilt, and forced herself to sleep!

She didn't expect she would really fall asleep...

Carrying the guilt she couldn't shake off, He Lele washed up while rubbing her temples. She didn't dare go out last night, so she didn't buy vegetables or cook dinner, and naturally, the lunch bento was also ruined. She put on the pantyhose and uniform suit uncomfortably, pinned up her long hair, put on a hair clip, and looked at her somewhat strange self in the mirror, forcing a smile.

No matter what, if she could smile, she had to smile.

After getting ready, He Lele opened the door.

Thump—a black heavy object fell directly at her feet.

Author's Note:

☆, (10 Fresh Coins) Chapter 193: Eating Everything with Gusto

Asking for leave on the second day of work, He Lele was speechless.

But she had to be glad she lived on the top floor, and the room opposite was the landlord's warehouse, which was unoccupied, otherwise, there might have been some gossip news today!
