Chapter 151: No Room Left for Retreat
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Shangguan Rouxue had known that she was pregnant since the week before, but she kept it as a secret, because she wanted to abort the baby. But at this moment, she wanted to keep this child, otherwise Xie Zhuojun might not want to marry her!
Jing Yichen’s men had kept an eye out for Shangguan Rouxue all the time, so he knew about her visiting the hospital for the pregnancy test immediately. That was why he had restrained himself from throwing her off the staircases.
He mustn’t make Shangguan Rouxue lose the child, or Xie Zhuojun would cross the barrier and they might not get married in the end.
Jing Yichen had made numerous preparations just to wait until they got married so as to unveil Shangguan Rouxue’s truth. If they didn’t get married, then Xie Zhuojun would not have to suffer!
He was never going to let go of anybody that once hurt Shangguan Ning!
Shangguan Rouxue had no idea that thanks to the baby, she escaped from being punished for the time being. At this moment, she was busy thinking about how to keep Xie Zhuojun.
When Yang Wenshu heard that she didn’t plan to keep the child, she couldn’t help but get worried. “Why? Your baby is Family Xie’s grandson and they won’t let you decide on your own!”
“Don’t worry, mom! As long as I can marry Zhuojun first, then everything else will be fine. It will be much easier for me to make something happen to the baby in my belly.” Shangguan Rouxue told her what she thought without hiding anything.
She had loved Xie Zhuojun for so many years and devoted herself to him so much just because she wanted to marry him and be with him forever.
She was also very happy that she was pregnant with Xie Zhuojun’s child, and she had thought about keeping it.
But if she gave birth to the baby, her career would be largely affected and her body shape would be distorted. That she couldn’t tolerate!
Xie Zhuojun would not like her if she became fat!
If she didn’t have a glorious life as an actress, everybody would look down on her.
She was going to give birth to the baby for Xie Zhuojun, but now was not the time yet.
“But the baby needs to be kept well for these two months. No mistake should happen.” Shangguan Rouxue massaged her belly, sounding surprisingly cold towards the life in her belly.
Xie Zhuojun soon got to know about Shangguan Rouxue’s pregnancy. His subconscious reaction was that it couldn’t have been possible.
They used protection method each time and Shangguan Rouxue was always on the pill. How could she ever get pregnant?
Besides, he used to like children, and he would sometimes mention to Shangguan Rouxue that she could give birth to a baby for him. But every time she would say that they needed to wait two more years, because her career was developing very fast and she mustn’t be pregnant yet.
Shangguan Rouxue had been even more careful about getting pregnant, so how could it have ever happened?
The picture Jing Yiran gave to him emerged in his head and the spoiled look of Shangguan Rouxue when she was sitting in some other men’s arms also appeared clearly.
He had been irritable recently and at this moment, he couldn’t control himself and broke a crystal ashtray at home.
Wang Lu entered the study instantly hearing the voice. He had been smoking in the study after he knew that Shangguan Rouxue was pregnant.
“What is it?”
Wang Lu didn’t care about that ashtray which had been imported from Germany. She only cared about her son.
When she saw the wound on her son’s face and understood that it was Yang Wenshu’s work, she got so furious that she almost went to Yang Wenshu for justice.
And now when she saw her son furious rather than happy with Shangguan Rouxue’s pregnancy, she became even more concerned.
Xie Zhuojun leaned his head against Wang Lu’s arms like a young boy as he said furiously. “Mom, I don’t want to marry Xue! I saw her pushing Shangguan Ning off the staircases today with my own eyes today. She is way too heartless! I have seen her doing similar things many times. She has done that to Shangguan Ning and to others as well. I keep telling myself that she doesn’t do it on purpose but I can no longer lie to myself! She has always been pretending and she has always been lying to me!”
Wang Lu got startled. She said with disbelief, “How could that be possible? She has always been kind-hearted and she doesn’t even want to hurt small cats or dogs. She even refuses to eat meat because she doesn’t like animals to be killed! Did you see it wrong?”
Shangguan Rouxue had been a gentle and kind woman, which had left a deep impression on Wang Lu’s mind. She found Xie Zhuojun’s words totally incredible.
“No, I didn’t see anything wrong. She is a woman with no heart. I can’t marry her!”
Wang Lu was also very annoyed after hearing what her son said. If Family Xie really married such a two-faced woman, then they would not have a peaceful life any more!
But the experienced Wang Lu soon calmed herself down from anger.
“I am afraid that it is too late not to marry her now, Zhuojun!” She patted her son’s back and said lightly. “You have been engaged in front of all the friends and relatives, and she is pregnant with Family Xie’s child. Your wedding date is also set! If we break off the engagement, then our family will be ruined.”
“But…”
Wang Lu interrupted him seriously. “No buts! I love you, but you are an adult! You should be responsible for what you say and what you do. Breaking off the engagement is impossible. Don’t ever think about it. When you broke off with Shangguan Ning back then, our family almost became the laughing stock of the entire A City. Do you know how terrible was the rumor? Luckily, we had Family Shangguan who covered up the entire matter so that your reputation was kept intact.”
Wang Lu suddenly thought of what happened back then when she talked about this matter.
She said furiously, “Since Shangguan Rouxue is a woman with such deep thoughts, I am afraid that it couldn’t have been an easy thing back then!”
She had wanted to ask Xie Zhuojun about what happened back then, but she stopped herself every time she had the intention. She asked him numerous times but Xie Zhuojun always claimed that he didn’t remember exactly what happened then!
She knew that her son wasn’t lying. He really didn’t remember what happened!
Shangguan Rouxue was indeed a tricky person who had kept them cheated for so many years!
But if she thought that Family Xie were a meek family, then she was totally wrong!
“Son, don’t be too worried. Shangguan Rouxue may be full of tricks, but I think that she is totally in love with you. We don’t need to care if she is vicious towards others, as long as she can be the good daughter -in-law of our family, then all will be fine. She dare not to create any fuss with me around!”
A touch of coldness flashed across Wang Lu’s eyes. Shangguan Rouxue better stay obedient, otherwise she would not stay so kind!
Xie Zhuojun was her only son whom she had been pampering since he was little. The car accident years back that made him become a vegetative man almost broke her heart.
So after he woke up, she spoiled him even more. They never forced him to do anything and also helped with the business of the company regularly whilst Xie Zhuojun was only involved in it every now and then. When he said that he didn’t want Shangguan Ning back then, they had granted his request and broken off the engagement.
If Shangguan Rouxue had not gotten pregnant, she might have agreed to give Xie Zhuojun what he wanted.
