In the evening, I dressed up carefully and arrived at the party venue with Shen Yulin. Seeing classmates I hadn't met in a long time filled me with warmth. Everyone was chatting enthusiastically, reminiscing about past memories. However, when they inadvertently asked about the father of my child, the atmosphere suddenly became awkward. It dawned on me that they didn't know about my relationship with Shen Yulin. Feeling a bit embarrassed, I looked at him, and he graciously took my hand and said, "It's mine."
The classmates showed surprised expressions and began to whisper among themselves. At that moment, Liao Jian walked over and sarcastically remarked, "I didn't expect you to be such a responsible person; you have a child but still aren't willing to give her a title." Shen Yulin's expression darkened, but he maintained his politeness, saying, "I was abroad during that time and just returned. I'll take care of it once the baby arrives."
Liao Jian sat beside me, his gaze filled with tenderness and nostalgia as he softly said, "It's been such a long time! Although you're pregnant, you really haven't changed at all." Hearing this made me feel a bit awkward, and I quickly replied, "You're the same too; still just like before. By the way, are you married?"
Liao Jian slowly shook his head, an indescribable hint of affection in his eyes as he lowered his voice and said, "There's someone I've always kept in my heart, and that person is still unmarried." At that moment, Shen Yulin's expression grew even darker; he exuded a cold and distant aura that seemed to drop the temperature in the room several degrees.
The classmates at the neighboring table who had been chatting or eating were drawn to our side's commotion. They all stopped their activities and turned their curious gazes toward our table. For a moment, the entire scene became unusually quiet as everyone seemed to silently observe the unfolding situation, waiting to see what would happen next.
Feeling that those around us were on the verge of an explosion—like a ticking time bomb—I thought it was bad and quickly tightened my grip on Shen Yulin's hand while signaling him with my eyes to stay calm! Liao Jian seemed to sense something was off too; a wave of disappointment washed over him, but he maintained his composure and said calmly, "Fanxing, we must have dinner together sometime." As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his glass and slowly stood up with a smile to toast the classmates, indicating that he had urgent matters to attend to and needed to leave first.
I finally let out a long sigh of relief; being caught between two men was incredibly uncomfortable. Liao Jian left, but Shen Yulin's jealousy was still palpable. He sat silently, repeatedly picking up and putting down his glass as if it contained not wine but his dissatisfaction. His eyes occasionally glanced at me, but whenever our gazes met, he quickly turned away to pretend to look elsewhere. The atmosphere was extremely awkward; no one spoke except for the occasional clinking of utensils and soft coughs.
I looked at Shen Yulin with some concern, wondering if he was still sulking. Just then, Shen Yulin suddenly pouted and leaned his head gently on my shoulder in front of many classmates while mumbling, "Baby, after all these years, he still likes you. I'm not happy!"
