Chapter 1025: Venting
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The smile on Xu Qingzhi’s face froze.
Then, she gave a bitter laugh and said, “I’m sad. But instead of crying hysterically, why don’t we… vent in another way…”
Her voice gradually choked as tears gushed out without warning. They hit the ground vertically and splashed water.
Xu Qingzhi hurriedly covered her eyes and said, “This thing… isn’t very obedient.”
Shen Fanxing’s eyes reddened as well. How could tears be stopped so easily?
She went forward to hug Xu Qingzhi and bit her lips to suppress her emotions.
“Fanxing, do you think he missed the flight and has to take the next one back?… But shouldn’t he inform me? Even a text message would be good…”
“Or is he joking with me? But he’s never one to joke…”
Shen Fanxing didn’t say a word as Xu Qingzhi answered her own question.
She gave herself the most realistic and cruel answer.
Xu Qingzhi cried in Shen Fanxing’s arms, her shoulders trembling with sadness.
This was the worst she had ever seen Qing Zhi cry.
After a long while, Shen Fanxing patted her shoulder and said, “Alright, you’ve cried enough. You still have a baby in your stomach. Calm down. Don’t you want to eat hotpot? Sit down, I’ll wash the vegetables and boil the water.”
“Yeah.”
Xu Qingzhi nestled in the corner of the sofa, her face red from crying. She replied with a nasal voice.
Shen Fanxing went to the kitchen to prepare. Ten minutes later, she came out to call Xu Qingzhi.
When she came out, she saw Xu Qingzhi with her hand on her stomach. She looked at the weather outside the window and asked calmly.
“Fanxing, do you think I should have this child?”
Shen Fanxing’s expression changed slightly as she sat beside her and looked at her solemnly.
“Due to our relationship, I don’t wish to keep this child.”
Xu Qingzhi’s eyes trembled when she heard Shen Fanxing say, “We’re all grown up, Qingzhi. It’s not the time for us to be willful when we’re in school. We can’t be absolutely carefree now. We have too many things to consider.”
There are too many consequences for us to bear if we give up on this child. Let’s not consider the reputation of the Li and Xu families for now. When the time comes, the media will definitely announce your innocence to the world.”
Shen Fanxing noticed that there was no change in her expression. She had already expected all these consequences and was mentally prepared to bear them.
But how could she not understand her? How could she bear to?
Holding her hand, Shen Fanxing took a deep breath and said, “Stay. It has nothing to do with Limo.”
Xu Qingzhi’s eyes flickered. “It has nothing to do with him?”
Shen Fanxing smiled and placed her hand on Xu Qingzhi’s stomach.
“Yes, it has nothing to do with him. Just treat it as our child and let him take my surname.”
Xu Qingzhi stared at Shen Fanxing for a long time before blinking.
“Pfft…” She couldn’t help but laugh. “Hahaha, Fanxing, you…”
Seeing her smile, Shen Fanxing heaved a sigh of relief and smiled.
Xu Qingzhi was amused by Shen Fanxing’s thoughts and she collapsed on the sofa, laughing uncontrollably.
“This is a good relationship. Back then, when I said that we were together, you said that I couldn’t give birth to a child for you. Now, look, you’re pregnant! There’s no problem between us!”
As Xu Qingzhi spoke, she patted her flat stomach and said, “Hubby, come, give our baby a name.”
Hubby…
Shen Fanxing smiled and got into character quickly.
“…Since she’s our child, let’s call her Shen Xunuo. You have to keep your promise.”
“Promise?” Xu Qingzhi murmured and smiled. “Sure, let’s call it a promise.”
Shen Fanxing stood up and pulled her up. “Let’s go eat hotpot.”
Xu Qingzhi put on her slippers and smiled at Shen Fanxing as she walked.
“Hey, when the time comes, your Mr. Bo will explode. He will let you sleep with me for a night, and the next day, you will become the father of the child. Pfft, thinking of how he was worried that you would be abducted by me, how he would introduce a man to me, and how he would even send me a movie in the end, I find it funny. He really has foresight, Fanxing. Now, you have really become my husband?”
The word ‘husband’ gave Shen Fanxing goosebumps. Only then did she recall Bo Jinchuan’s jealousy. Her lips twitched.
She couldn’t imagine how Bo Jinchuan would react.
Things were really… unpredictable.
Speaking of which, there was a reason why Bo Jinchuan was worried that she would get too close to a woman.
No other woman would be able to become his ‘father’.
She would never say that he was jealous again.
The two women didn’t have a big appetite and they ate more vegetables than meat.
After dinner, Shen Fanxing and Xu Qingzhi went to the living room alone.
Not long after, Shen Fanxing heard her calm voice.
She turned off the tap and placed her hand on the sink. The kitchen fell silent and the sounds outside became clearer.
Standing by the window, Xu Qingzhi held her phone in one hand and looked at the edge of the city.
“Are you okay?”
“Yes.” His deep and indifferent voice was so stingy that he didn’t say a word.
“I thought you were the only one who crashed.” Her voice was still cold, but her tone was filled with sarcasm.
“I have something on and can’t go back for the time being.”
“Then when can you come back?” Xu Qingzhi asked again. “Limo, our wedding is the day after tomorrow.”
Li Mo remained silent for a long time before saying calmly,
“You want to marry me that badly?”
The smile on Xu Qingzhi’s face froze. “Now, I can’t wait for the whole world to know that we’re getting married. Do you think I can turn back? Have you thought about what I’ll face if I don’t get married?”
Li Mo suddenly gave a low laugh on the other end of the phone. “Then have you thought about what you’ll meet after we get married?”
Xu Qingzhi’s eyes trembled. “Limo… what do you mean?”
“You should be very smart. There’s no reason for you not to understand what I mean. If you want to get married, then get married. After all, you have such a huge bargaining chip in your stomach.”
The call was cut off. Xu Qingzhi took the phone from her ear, her face pale.
The bargaining chip in her stomach?
He also thought that the child in her stomach was a bargaining chip to threaten him to marry her?
No, it wasn’t.
She just wanted to be with him. She wanted to fulfill her wish and her baby.
The baby must have a mother and a father.
But if this was a forced, sinister, and purpose, then… forget it.
