Chapter 241 241: Emotional Fluctuations
Lei Qian didn't even dare to dream about having a child because of his cousin and his mother eyeing his wealth like a pair of snakes. As for his uncle, it was better to not even start on him. That man was jealous and greedy but had no ability, so he could only chew on soft rice and let his wife do whatever she wanted.
With free reign, his aunt had done whatever she wanted against his family. She had no qualms. In fact, she once hired a bunch of thugs and had them cause havoc in her own house and even injured herself. Fortunately, Lei Qian got wind of the fact and immediately flew out of the country with his family or else the blame would have fallen on his head.
How could he even think of giving birth to a child when he was surrounded by snakes from all directions?
"Then what about now?" Bai Meiyue asked in a nonchalant voice. She blinked her eyes and questioned in a soft voice, "Now that the world has ended, have you thought about marrying and getting a child?"
Lei Qian smile turned cheeky when he heard her question. He raised his hands and hugged Bai Meiyue's waist before saying to her, "What's wrong, your highness? Do you want to marry and have a child with me?"
Bai Meiyue rolled her eyes. she stepped on the feet of the flirtatious man.
"Ouch, why are you getting angry at me now?"
"I was just asking," Bai Meiyue snorted coldly. "When did I say that I am willing to marry you?"
The last time she dared to trust men, one sold her off to an old man and the other sold her son away for a few supplies. She would be a fool to trust another man after learning her lesson.
The reason Lei Qian was so kind to her was because she was the only one in his eyes at the moment but when that woman —the one who stood next to him in her past life—appears, would this man still be loyal to her?
Even if she couldn't remember him, Lei Qian must have sensed something amiss, right? Why didn't this man come to look for her in the last life? If she couldn't reach out to her, this man could have always found her!
He didn't look for her but instead raised another woman by his side. Bai Meiyue didn't dare to have too many hopes from this man either.
"But you said—"
"I was asking you a general question," she said to him without showing much emotion on her face. She simply shrugged and asked, "Since the mood was right, I simply questioned what came to my mind. Who would have thought you would take it seriously?"
After speaking, she paused and asked, "Well?"
"Well what?" Lei Qian rubbed his toes that were hurting slightly and raised his head when he heard Bai Meiyue's prodding tone.
"Do you?"
"I —can think about getting married," Lei Qian honestly answered as he straightened up and slowly began speaking. "But I cannot think of having a child. I don't know where my cousin and his family are at the moment. Without handling them, I will not think of having a child. What if the child gets caught up in the crossfire? Wouldn't an innocent life be lost for no reason?"
When Bai Meiyue heard his response, she pursed her lips and didn't say anything. She was originally wondering if she should tell Lei Qian about their son but when she heard him talk about his cousin and aunt, she decided to hide the truth from him.
It was better to keep Bai Cai's existence from Lei Qian.
She was going through so many sufferings because Bai Meiyue wanted to build a world where her son would be able to live a peaceful and comfortable life. Since Lei Qian's life was filled with so many troubles, she might as well hide Bai Cai from him.
The last thing she wanted was her poor son to be dragged down by his father.
"Whats wrong? What are you thinking?" Lei Qian asked when he saw that Bai Meiyue was looking at him with a complicated look in her eyes. And what was with this sudden chilly feeling on his spine?
"It's nothing; you should go out. I need to take rest."
Then, without wasting time with Lei Qian, she kicked the man out and went to sleep.
The convoy set off for the City Hospital in the afternoon when the number of zombies on the street had gone down. Bai Meiyue climbed up in the SUV together with her brothers and just like before, Lei Qian followed her without showing any signs of embarrassment.
He was simply following the ideology that as long as I don't show that I am embarrassed, it will be the turn of others to be embarrassed.
Seeing this Bai Meiyue simply rolled her eyes and turned her back on him. Since he wanted to act as her driver, she was going to work him to death!
This bastard who had the audacity to make her pregnant but not take responsibility, he deserved to die without any descendants.
Or maybe he simply didn't like her enough to have a child with her?
Having seen the good things Bai Qingshi had done, Bai Meiyue was really suspicious of men, especially men from high society. Bai Qingshi was a phoenix man but he still did such a thing. How good of a person could Lei Qian be when he grew up with a silver spoon in his mouth?
The more she thought about it, the more Bai Meiyue felt furious. She turned and glared at Lei Qian, wishing she could freeze the balls of this bastard until they fell off. Such a despicable man should be turned into eunuch lest he harm someone else.
Lei Qian, who was glared at until he could feel her glares burn into his back: "...." Now, what did I do ?
What do you think?
