Chapter 1144 - 1164: Actually, I’m Pregnant
But at this moment, as Tang Yan breathed in the scent on her body, he felt very unfamiliar with it, even a bit stifled."Tang Yan... you... what’s wrong?" Qi Yue clasped her hands together, looking uneasily at Tang Yan who was focused on driving beside her, and asked.
Ever since she came out, he had only said two words and hadn’t opened his mouth again.
This silent and cold Tang Yan made her feel like he was a stranger, and at the same time inexplicably nervous.
Was it that this outfit of hers didn’t look good? Or had he waited too long and gotten a bit impatient? But... he was clearly the one who asked her to come.
"Nothing." Tang Yan glanced at her, saw her anxious face, and still managed to force a smile at her.
Honestly, what right did he even have to be angry?
Her pregnancy was that man’s business, what did it have to do with him? She was just a passerby he happened to save, and besides, he had already said that after tonight, if she wanted to leave, she could leave at any time.
Yet he didn’t even know why, he was just furious inside.
Because she hadn’t told him the truth about being pregnant? Or because he felt he’d been deceived?
She wasn’t as simple as he had imagined?
Tang Yan’s expression was very ugly, and he continued to say not a single word.
"Right... later, you know what you’re supposed to do, right?" Tang Yan asked faintly.
Qi Yue nodded. "Didn’t you tell me before, I just need to nod or smile whenever you speak..."
The streetlights were just coming on along the roadside. Tang Yan’s face wasn’t very clear under the lights. Qi Yue thought for a moment, and suddenly, something occurred to her; her expression changed slightly.
One hand moved to rest on her lower abdomen.
She turned her face and glanced at Tang Yan.
Could it be... that the people at the beauty salon had told Tang Yan about her pregnancy?
That had to be it, otherwise why would he suddenly seem so unfamiliar, and clearly look like he was angry.
Qi Yue bit her lower lip. She was doomed; she should have told him earlier.
Now, would he think she’d been deceiving him?
It wasn’t like she’d really wanted to lie to him... She had originally planned to tell him last time, but then thought that once this was over she was going to leave.
Maybe after that, they would never see each other again.
She wanted the impression she left him with to always be a good one, not some label like "a wayward girl who got pregnant out of wedlock."
But she hadn’t expected that in the end, he would still find out.
Qi Yue felt awful all over. Just the thought of him being disappointed in her hurt worse than being stabbed with a knife.
She glanced at Tang Yan and stammered, "Tang Yan... you, you’re..."
"Beep-beep—!" Just then, a car in front of them, which had been going a bit slowly, suddenly stopped for no apparent reason.
Tang Yan’s face darkened as he slammed on the horn.
Qi Yue jumped in fright, her words cutting off halfway.
The car in front finally sped off.
Tang Yan, face still dark, shot Qi Yue a look. Suppressing his anger, he still couldn’t help asking irritably, "What were you trying to say?"
Looking at the way he was right now, Qi Yue suddenly felt a bit helpless.
"I’m sorry... actually, there’s something I’ve never told you..."
"What is it?" Tang Yan asked with a half-smile that wasn’t quite a smile.
"Actually... actually I... in my belly I..."
Tang Yan suddenly stepped on the brakes and pulled the car over to the side of the road.
He silently rested both hands on the steering wheel. The streetlamp cast a sallow light over his fine features, and his gaze slowly landed on Qi Yue’s face.
Meeting his indifferent eyes, Qi Yue felt her heart pounding wildly.
