Chapter 17 You Are Pregnant?

She was upset with my answer, and she still doubted it, “That’s impossible. There’s no way you can look so good without makeup.” I appreciated her compliment, but I was well aware of my beauty. After all, my ex-husband took advantage of my beautiful look in exchange for his promotion. Speaking of that, the desire to dig out the truth had been in my genes. However, at this moment, I felt worn-out and I really wanted to let go of the bloody truth. Yao Keyi continued to do her makeup while I shifted my attention back to the phone to keep myself busy— Until Sang Qi finally showed up in the elevator. “He’s here,” I reminded her. In the very next second, Yao Keyi had rushed up to him, dragging me along with her. She walked very fast even with those high heels and almost ran into Sang Qi. Sang Qi’s assistant, who looked tall and strong, reacted quickly and stopped us in time. Sang Qi caught the sight of us and frowned. He didn’t seem to be in a good mood and was definitely not pleased with this encounter. I was a bit hurt when I found that he looked at me in the same way that he looked at Yao Keyi. He thought we were the same, and I was just another woman who wouldn’t stop badgering him. However, that wasn’t the truth, and I couldn’t care less. Yao Keyi seized me by the arm and pushed me to Sang Qi, “Darling Sang, be careful with this woman! She’s just trying to get close to you, but she’s a terrible person.” The lobby was busy at present, and considering the fact that Sang Qi just had a meeting here, many of his acquaintances were probably still around. I spoke to Yao Keyi in a low voice, “This is not the right place to talk.” She glared at me, “Stop playing nice! I know what you are thinking!” Sang Qi ignored her and strode out of the lobby. Yao Keyi hurried to follow him all the way to the parking lot. Her desperately chasing after a man made me very uncomfortable. Sang Qi’s assistant opened the door for him and he got in without giving us another look, “Yao Keyi, I made it clear yesterday. You can’t be my girlfriend.” Oh, she was dumped. That explained why she came after me so angrily. “No!” Yao Keyi cried and grabbed Sang Qi’s arm, “You can’t leave me for this woman! Do you know that she’s married? She’s a slut and she’s pregnant with another man’s baby not long after getting married!” Obviously, Yao Keyi had looked into my background thoroughly. Hearing that, Sang Qi froze and turned to me, “You are pregnant?” I could tell that his confusion was an instinctive reaction. When digesting surprising news, people tended to be confused at first and then they would gradually accept the fact. His initial reaction showed he didn’t know that I was pregnant. If he just slept with me, it was perfectly understandable that he didn’t know about it. Yet, he kept me in that villa and ordered me to give birth to the baby. What was wrong? I didn’t understand. Judging from his expression, he wasn’t acting. I began to tremble all over, not sure if it was because of the coldness or fright. I felt terrified to realize that I actually hoped for Sang Qi to be the father. Why? Was it for his appearance or his wealth? I freed myself from Yao Keyi’s control and walked to her car. She shouted behind me, “Where are you going? Come back and tell him everything!” Since she wouldn’t let Sang Qi go, she didn’t come after me at once. My snacks were still in her car, which was not far from Sang Qi’s, so I said loudly to Yao Keyi, “Open the door. I need to get my snacks.” Sang Qi had pushed her away and now she was dealing with his assistant. She was too busy to respond, but I was sick and tired of her love game. “Open the door, Yao Keyi!” I raised my voice and picked up a brick, “If you don’t, I’ll just smash it!” She glanced at me, “Don’t you dare!” She thought I didn’t dare, but apparently, she didn’t know me well. I hit the window with a lot of force, but the first attempt failed. It seemed that the quality of her sports car was worth its price. Just as I was about to give it another try... Yao Keyi rushed to me, crying out, “Crazy bitch!” She was worried about her car. Once she opened the door for me, I got in. She didn’t quite follow my actions, “What do you want?” “Take me home.” We were far away from the city center and it was hard to get a taxi here. Besides, I didn’t want to waste the money I earned with my pride and dignity. Before Yao Keyi could react, Sang Qi’s car sped up and left us behind. She broke out and shouted, “Darling Sang! My darling!” I took out a piece of gum and started to chew while she cried. She started the engine while the tears washed away her makeup. When she calmed down a bit, she started to swear at me, “Even if I can’t be his girlfriend, you won’t have a chance, you slut!” “I never want to be with him.” The gum was so chewy that even my cheeks felt sore. “You are lying.” “I just met him a few days ago. Why would I want to be his girlfriend?” “But he’s rich and handsome! Why don’t you want to be with him?” She was amazed. “That makes no difference to me.” I was amused by her reaction, “There are numerous rich men in this world. Do you want to date every one of them?” “You can’t fool me! You like him. You are just afraid to admit it.” I was afraid of nothing. But when I turned around and looked toward the front, I had to admit that I literally freaked out. “Watch out! Yao Keyi!” She paid no attention to driving while arguing with me. So, she panicked when she saw a car dashing towards us. She screamed and steered right abruptly. Her car narrowly avoided a crash with the oncoming car, but she was also about to hit the fence right next to the sidewalk. “Brake! You idiot!” I shouted to remind her, but it was too late. The airbag deployed itself due to the huge impact. I felt a sharp pain in my face. I put my hands over my belly instinctively to protect the baby. Luckily, it wasn’t hurt. Thank goodness, I survived. Yao Keyi burst out crying, “Help! Help! My face! It must be ruined! Can anyone help?” I struggled to turn to her. There was no blood on her face and her loud screaming indicated that she was not seriously injured. “Did you get a nose job?” She was terrified, “Is my nose broken? Did something fall out?”
