Ye Ya looked at Lu Tianyang's face, which was contorted with rage, the veins on his forehead bulging prominently. He had an expression that suggested he wanted to tear her apart. If she said she wasn’t nervous, it would surely be a lie.
“Ye Ya, let me tell you, I am not the kind of person you think I am,” Lu Tianyang said angrily, struggling to control the impulse to strangle this woman. What made it worse was that this insufferable woman was actually his cousin’s fiancée.
“Oh, if that’s the case, then how did you end up in a nightclub?” Ye Ya thought to herself. This Hong Jie was utterly unreliable; hadn’t she said it was absolutely safe?
“I want to ask you, how could you go there, Ye Ya? You are now Jing Hao's fiancée. You shameless woman, have you thought about what kind of death you deserve?” Lu Tianyang felt as if he were choking on blood, ready to spit it out at any moment.
After a whole night of forced smiles and being targeted by this villain's gaze, Ye Ya had never felt so exhausted. Instead, she found herself in a state of indifference, like a dead pig that wasn’t afraid of boiling water.
“So what do you want? Go tell the whole world to kick me out of the Jing Family. Go ahead and say it,” she retorted. Perhaps this was a way out; this marriage held no glimmer of hope, and ending it would be for the best.
Lu Tianyang did not expect Ye Ya to respond this way. He felt that this woman was truly shameless and couldn’t help but feel a sense of disappointment.
“Ye Ya, I’m telling you, from now on, stay within your bounds as a woman. If I find out that you do anything behind Jing Hao’s back, I will make sure your life is worse than death.” After saying this, Lu Tianyang shot her a look of disgust as if he didn’t want to see her again and left.
If life were worse than death, why wait any longer? She felt that she was already living in such a state.
However, she could at least confirm one thing: Lu Tianyang wouldn’t reveal what happened last night. He cared more about his reputation than she did; speaking about it would bring him no benefit.
Ye Ya didn’t dare to stay away for too long for fear of raising suspicion. When she returned to the banquet, she saw Lu Tianyang and Ye Qi laughing and chatting from a distance. Indeed, he was just a hypocritical beast.
The banquet lasted until after eleven o’clock. To show his sincerity, Jing Hao personally drove Ye Ya home.
Sitting in the car, Ye Ya stared out the window without saying a word.
“Ye Ya, what’s wrong?” Jing Hao couldn’t help but ask when he noticed her silence.
“Jing Hao, the banquet is over; we don’t need to pretend anymore. We agreed to stay out of each other’s lives from now on,” Ye Ya said bluntly, leaving Jing Hao speechless and choosing not to respond further.
In another car, Du Huiru looked at her son. As the legitimate son of the Lu Family, he was exceptional in both looks and abilities. The more she looked at him, the more satisfied she became. “Lu Tianyang, have you fallen for that girl from the Ye Family at today’s banquet? I won’t agree to that; her family background doesn’t deserve to enter our Lu Family.”
Du Huiru saw her son chatting alone with Ye Qi tonight and was afraid he might take a liking to such an unrefined woman. She quickly gave him a reminder; Du Huiru placed great importance on social status, and her only son certainly did not deserve a woman like that.
Lu Tianyang smiled. "Mom, I'm just talking to her." As for why he approached Ye Qi, Lu Tianyang's highly intelligent mind couldn't provide an answer right away. Was it simply because she was the sister of that foolish woman? Was he seeking revenge?
Returning to the Ye Family home, it was already past eleven. Ye Ya ignored the two women and went straight to her room. Thinking about everything that happened tonight, she touched her chest, still feeling a lingering fear. How could she have gotten involved with Jing Hao's cousin? Surely, there would be many more opportunities to meet in the future.
If Lu Tianyang ever revealed what happened that night, she feared her future married life would be doomed. She gently tapped her forehead, wondering if fate was against her. She had never done anything out of line, always living cautiously and prudently. Indeed, one should never do bad things.
With a soft sigh, feeling restless and unsure of what to do, she found solace in one thing: she and Jing Hao had reached a mutual agreement. She thought it would be best to have it printed in black and white.
Ye Ya had a restless night, plagued by two nightmares. When she returned to the company in the morning, Xiao Guo couldn't help but ask, "Manager, I know you've been busy planning your wedding, but you need to take care of yourself too. You have dark circles under your eyes."
It seemed the news spread quickly; most people in Quan Ning City probably already knew that Ye Ya was getting married to Jing Hao.
"Xiao Guo, please prepare for a meeting and notify everyone that it will start at ten." Despite her fatigue, Ye Ya never slacked off at work and had never acted superior just because she was Ye Zhen's granddaughter. The planning department respected her because she proved herself through hard work.
Moreover, in her grandfather's eyes, she was nothing special.
Work continued as usual. Jing Hao only contacted Ye Ya for necessary occasions and otherwise kept his distance, which made Ye Ya feel relieved. This emotionless marriage had its advantages after all.
Just as she stepped out of the meeting room, Ye Ya's phone rang. Seeing it was Jing Hao calling, she answered, "What is it now?"
On the other end of the line came Jing Hao's slightly displeased voice. "How can you not let me call my own wife? We're practically married."
Ye Ya rubbed her temples lightly. "Jing Hao, cut the nonsense. Just tell me what you need; I won't interrupt your time with beautiful women. I'm busy too."
"Ye Ya, has anyone ever told you that you have no femininity at all? It's a shame this young master has to marry you; it's like marrying a tomboy. Anyway, enough chit-chat; come over this afternoon to try on your wedding dress." Jing Hao joked while still holding another lively foreign girl in his arms.
Ye Ya vaguely heard voices on his end; the woman's voice sounded so sweet it could melt bones.
"Got it. I won't disturb your lovely time." With that, Ye Ya decisively hung up the phone.
Recently, in order to ensure the wedding went smoothly, Grandfather arranged for a trusted assistant to be assigned to Ye Ya, so that someone could take over her duties when she was unavailable.
In the afternoon, Ye Ya arrived at the wedding shop on time, but Jing Hao had not yet arrived. She sat in the waiting room, biding her time.
Next to her was another couple, deeply in love as they selected their wedding photos. Watching them made her feel a bitter irony about her own situation.
“Baby, I think this one is great! How about we choose this one to hang at the entrance of the hotel for the guests?” The man was considerate and gentle, while the woman seemed delicate and dependent. Suddenly, she looked like she wanted to vomit but couldn’t. She couldn’t help but pinch the man beside her. “It’s all your fault! You made me look bad in this wedding dress! Didn’t you say it would be fine? How could I end up pregnant?”
The man quickly apologized, but their relationship was based on affection, and even their playful banter was filled with sweetness.
In that moment, an ominous thought surged in Ye Ya's mind. That night with Lu Tianyang, they hadn’t taken any precautions. She remembered Hong Jie saying that the nightlife at Niulang was quite respectable, so she hadn’t thought much of it.
But who would have guessed that Lu Tianyang wasn’t the refined gentleman she imagined? Looking at the woman beside her and recalling how she had been feeling nauseous in the mornings lately, Ye Ya thought it might just be due to lack of rest. Plus, calculating the days, Aunt Flo should have arrived by now, yet she hadn’t shown up.
Oh my God, could such a cliché situation really be happening to her? Ye Ya felt a chill creeping up from her toes; it was an unknown fear.
The more she thought about it, the more anxious she became. She called Jing Hao and told him she couldn’t make it due to personal matters and asked him to reschedule. Jing Hao was understandably displeased, but there was nothing he could do. In the end, Ye Ya suggested he find another woman with a similar figure to hers to try instead; there was no need for her to be there.
Ye Ya was truly scared. After leaving the wedding shop, she headed straight to the hospital; only after an examination would she feel truly at ease.
Damn it! How could such a huge blunder happen? It completely caught her off guard.
At the hospital, she quickly got a number and soon it was her turn. The doctor was a woman in her forties who looked at Ye Ya and asked, “What seems to be the problem?”
“Doctor, I want to know if I’m pregnant. I’ve been feeling nauseous in the mornings lately, and my period doesn’t seem to have arrived,” Ye Ya said uncertainly, gripping her hands tightly. When she felt nervous, she would hold onto herself as if that could give her strength.
“Take this form to pay for your examination; a nurse will take you for tests shortly,” the doctor said while giving Ye Ya another scrutinizing look as if she recognized her from somewhere.
“Thank you, Doctor.” Ye Ya didn’t like being looked at like that; she felt a twinge of regret for coming here impulsively since she had recently become one of Ning Cheng's hot topics.
Indeed, one must always remain calm in any situation to ensure they can navigate through difficulties. Recent events had been overwhelming for Ye Ya, making her feel foolish.
After paying the fee, Ye Ya followed the nurse into the examination room. After more than half an hour of tests, she walked out with a weary expression. The results were not yet available, so she could only sit outside and wait.
She prayed that heaven would not be too cruel to her. She loved children, but at this moment, it felt like it wasn't the right time for a child to come into her life. How could she protect a child in such circumstances?
After waiting for another half hour, the doctor called her in. Sitting there felt like waiting for a verdict; Ye Ya was extremely anxious, so much so that her nails were digging into her flesh without her even noticing.
"Doctor, what are the results?" she asked nervously and cautiously, as if afraid to disturb something.
The doctor handed over the report and pointed at it. "Miss Ye, the test results indicate that you are pregnant. The child is less than a month along, which is a very unstable time. You must take extra care to rest; otherwise, there is a high risk of miscarriage. You need to be cautious during the first three months of pregnancy."
Ye Ya barely heard the rest of what he said; one thought was clear in her mind: she was pregnant. She was pregnant. She was pregnant.
Leaving the hospital, Ye Ya felt as if all her strength had been drained away. The report in her bag made her extremely anxious. What should she do now? Did this mean she had to marry into the Jing Family with this child? If the Jing Family discovered that this child was not Jing Hao's, what would she do?
Moreover, she and Jing Hao had already discussed their future; he would find out sooner or later. Would he be willing to bear such a huge betrayal?
But should she terminate this pregnancy? Ye Ya gently placed her hand on her belly, thinking about the small life growing inside her. Was this a punishment from heaven or a blessing? Child, how can I protect you?
