Before I could react, her annoying ex-boyfriend, Li Xiang, popped up.
"Isn't this my little treasure? What are you doing here?"
Yin Cheng pinched me from behind.
I immediately replied, "I'm pregnant, and Yin Cheng is accompanying me for a check-up."
"You’re pregnant?"
Li Xiang stared at my belly.
Yin Cheng stepped forward and slapped him, "What’s wrong with you? Staring at her belly?"
Li Xiang looked confused, "How can you be pregnant? Can you get pregnant by yourself?"
What a mouth he has.
I pointed at him, "Yin Cheng, hit him."
Without hesitation, Yin Cheng slapped Li Xiang again.
"Get lost!"
Li Xiang rubbed the back of his head, "Alright then, I'll give you a ride back."
"No need, you can keep your car for your good colleague."
Yin Cheng said coldly, pulling me away.
Li Xiang followed us, mumbling, "I’m just giving her a ride since it’s on the way; why are you so concerned..."
He kept rambling until we got in the car and finally fell silent.
Yin Cheng remained sullen and didn’t say a word.
I thought their breakup was for the best; Li Xiang was really annoying.
That night, Li Xiang suddenly called, laughing mischievously, "I know why you're pregnant, haha!"
"Are you crazy?"
"Come out and play; hurry up, everyone’s waiting."
Li Xiang gave me an address.
I, someone who loves lively gatherings, never miss an event.
"Right away!"
When I arrived at the bar, I noticed Yin Cheng was also there.
Everyone was drinking, while she sipped on a bottle of Yakult.
I sat down and leaned closer to her ear, asking, "Why are you still hanging out with that jerk?"
Yin Cheng winked at me.
I didn’t ask further. Just as I picked up my drink, a large hand grabbed my wrist.
"What’s going on?"
I turned to see Zhou Chenyu. What was he doing here?
Zhou Chenyu took my drink and said, "You can’t drink while pregnant."
With that, he downed the entire glass.
I mouthed to Yin Cheng, "What’s happening?"
Yin Cheng pointed at Li Xiang.
Li Xiang approached with a grin. Yin Cheng moved aside, and he sat next to me.
"When did you and Old Zhou get back together? Why didn’t you tell us?"
He whispered in my ear, "My mom keeps nagging me about introducing you to someone. And here you are, quietly getting together with Old Zhou. If I hadn’t noticed your baby bump, would you have even admitted it?"
I slapped him on the back of his head. "Shut up!"
Li Xiang leaned over to Zhou Chenyu. "Old Zhou, teach me how to make someone like Cheng Yue obedient and willing to have kids."
He shook Zhou Chenyu’s leg. "Come on, help me out; my partner is causing a scene."
Zhou Chenyu pushed him away. "Be careful."
Li Xiang immediately sat up straight. "Sorry, sorry, I almost crushed Old Zhou's kid."
"Yin Cheng!"
I shouted; this guy had a big mouth and needed someone to put him in his place!
Zhou Chenyu, however, calmly said, "The child isn't mine."
"What the hell!"
Li Xiang jumped up, his eyes wide as he looked at me. "Cheng Yue, can you really reproduce asexually?"
Li Xiang was pulled away by Yin Cheng and didn't come back.
Zhou Chenyu fixed his penetrating gaze on me. "Let's talk."
"About what?"
"The child."
He glanced at my belly. "Even Li Xiang doesn't know whose child you're carrying. Who exactly are you seeing?"
We're already broken up, and he still cares about my business? Does he really think I'm his daughter?
I hated this about him more than anything—he was more parental than my actual parents, which was why I ended things with him. Now he was just getting worse.
"What does it matter to you whose child I'm carrying?"
In the dim light, Zhou Chenyu's expression darkened.
He suddenly stood up, grabbed my arm, and dragged me out to his car.
"What are you doing?" I shouted angrily.
