Chapter 1038: What Was The Point Of Giving Birth?
Between him and Little Tian, neither bore romantic feelings towards the other. If she was unwilling to marry, he would not force her, but he hoped she would give birth to the child, because he would raise the kid himself!
Little Tian relaxed when she got the reply. She even seemed to be smiling.
While she was pleased to hear his answer, Ming Yan had more to add. “I’ll keep the kid and compensate you with money! I know you don’t want to marry me, and I won’t force you. Since you’re pregnant, it’s best to carry the baby to term. That way, no harm comes to your body, and the baby gets a chance to live. Let’s keep it, alright?”
Ming Yan spoke with sincerity, in a gentle and patient tone. At the same time, he looked forward to and yearned for the child residing in Little Tian’s belly.
Now it was Little Tian’s turn to blink. He just wants the child, and not me? But that’s not what he said before!
Frustrated, Little Tian pursed her lips, unsure of what to say.
She had rejected him every single time, but now that he really said it, she did not feel pleased at all!
Ming Yan observed the many changes in her mood, wondering what he had said wrong. He kept on waiting for her reply.
Time ticked past slowly but Ming Yan remained patient. He stayed silent, not wanting to disrupt Little Tian’s thoughts, as he waited.
Yet Little Tian felt troubled by his gaze. She frowned at him, “I’ll keep the baby, but not for you. Think about the life they would have without a father or mother!”
She did not wish for her kid to be born without either parent.
Otherwise, what was the point of giving birth?
Ming Yan knew what she meant.
“I’m fine with that. When would you like to get married? Three days from now?”
“Anything will do!”
As soon as she said that, Little Tian turned to leave the same way they’d come.
But Ming Yan did not chase after her.
He found it odd that she readily agreed to marry him and mother their child but, nevertheless, he would take up the full responsibility!
Only when Little Tian vanished from sight did Ming Yan slowly go back to the inn Liu Duo and the gang were currently staying at.
After Wang Xiangyun left, she returned to Mingyun Building and locked herself in her room once more. She was tearing up.
Why had she been feeling so unbearable?
“My lady, I’m back.” Little Tian knocked on the door and entered.
She intended to look for her next door, but changed her mind. She supposed Dongfang Ming wanted nothing to do with her. Staying there would be useless.
Wang Xiangyun dried the tears at the sound of her voice. She turned around and forced a smile. “So, how did it go? Have you two settled things?”
She tossed her sorrows aside to focus on Little Tian.
Little Tian could tell Wang Xiangyun had been crying. She approached her lady and wiped away her tears. “It’s settled. It’ll be held three days from now. But, my lady, I’m worried about you. I don’t trust the next servant to take care of you after I leave.”
She was ready to marry Ming Yan and have their child, but at the same time, she could not let go of Wang Xiangyun. She felt terribly conflicted.
One could not have it both ways. Aye…
“Don’t you worry. “Wang Xiangyun pulled Little Tian over and lightly patted the back of her hand. “Since Ming Yan will take you as his bride three days from now, I’ll see to it that your wedding goes perfectly! We’ll go to the clothing store in a moment and get you a fitting bridal gown. We won’t stay too far apart, so do come visit me often.”
