Chapter 120 Who Is the Child's Father?
g a composed expression as he sat calmly beside Yan Luoxi.The sudden arrival of Luo An triggered an alarm in Yan Luoxi's mind, causing her to subtly increase her vigilance.With his thin lips slightly...Chapter 120: Whose Child Is It
An grievously hurt Li An, who was filled with resentment and injustice, suddenly raised his head when Shao Junhe spoke like this. His eyes shone brightly as he stared at Shao Junhe, "What do you mean by that What do you mean by saying Yan Luoxi doesn't care for you"
Shao Junhe's heart felt heavy and bitter after Li An asked him this question. He gave a wry smile, "Yan Luoxi never liked me from the very beginning. During this period of time, it was all me pestering her to stick around while she repeatedly chased me away, not wanting me to follow her. She doesn't need my protection."
Li An's brows involuntarily furrowed as a result. If Yan Luoxi and Shao Junhe's relationship were truly like what Shao Junhe described, then their relationship was very distant. In that case, where did the child in Yan Luoxi’s belly come from Could it be that they had drunken sex after which she became pregnant…
The last time Li An secretly saw Yan Luoxi in Yantai, she was three months into her pregnancy and showed no signs of it on her body. Overwhelmed with grief and anger as well as heartache, he subconsciously believed based on what the maid said that Yan Luoxi had only just become pregnant. She spent every day together with Shao Junhe; naturally, the child in her belly was his.
"Yan Luoxi is currently pregnant and she doesn't want you following her around; are you going to leave her alone over there" Li An's voice carried a strong sense of displeasure and jealousy. How could Shao Junhe do something so irresponsible Since he got Yan Luoxi pregnant, how could he just abandon her
Shao Junhe lowered his head in dejection as he said somewhat dazedly, "Luoxi isn't in Yantai; she returned to Zhu Kou City with her mother."
"And what about you Do you plan on giving up like this" Li An's eyes burned intensely as they fixed onto Shao Junhe. His hand under the blanket clenched into a fist out of anxiety and frustration.
"What else can I do if I don't give up!" Shao Junhe let out a long sigh, smiling candidly at Li An, "Yan Luoxi doesn’t like me even the slightest bit while you keep her in your heart. I can no longer be an obstacle between you two.
If you still deeply love Luo Xi and promise not to hurt her again, go ahead and win her back. Even if you've wounded her deeply, she still has feelings for you.
Sao Junhe hesitated a moment before continuing: "But all of this is predicated on the condition that you can truly accept the child in Luo Xi's womb, and that your family can also accept it. If you cannot accept the child, then don't disturb her peaceful life."
Hearing about the child in Yan Luoxi's womb, Li An felt as though something had fiercely collided with his chest.
Up until now, he still deeply loved Yan Luoxi and wanted to win her back. However, the child in Yan Luoxi’s womb was Sao Junhe's; how could the Sao family easily allow Yan Luoxi to leave with their child And would his parents be willing to snatch away a pregnant woman from the Sao family
The entanglements and connections involved were complex. The issue not only pertained to feelings but also blood relations, family ties, and if he forced himself to be together with Yan Luoxi, future conflicts would be endless.
Li An had left Yantai in despair for this very reason back then, and now the problem remained unsolvable.
The hope that had briefly lit up in his eyes dimmed again. His heart ached fiercely with each wave of pain as he said through gritted teeth: "Douzi, after this incident, I’ve finally come to my senses. I admit that I still love Yan Luoxi, but from now on, I will never do anything foolish for her.
Go ahead and pursue Yan Luoxi however you like; don’t consider my feelings. Seeing you both live happily makes me at ease."
Lian’s words were clearly insincere. Sao Junhe looked at him with a puzzled expression, "You’re not indifferent to Yan Luoxi, but rather, you can't accept the child in her womb, right"
Lian felt distressed as Shao Junhe's question made her feel anxious and bewildered. She couldn't help but wonder when had Shao Junhe become so irresponsible, acting without considering the consequences.
His voice grew weaker with each word he spoke, "I can accept the child in her womb, but can you bear to let that child go Can your family agree for that child to take my surname Would my parents allow me to claim your child as mine"
"What My child" Finally understanding Lian's words, Shao Junhe was both amused and exasperated. "You're saying the baby in Yan Luoxi’s womb is mine because I got her pregnant"
Wasn't it Lian felt slightly dazed as if she couldn’t quite process what was happening.
Suddenly, Shao Junhe found the situation incredibly absurd and burst out laughing. "If Yan Luoxi were willing to let me touch her, if this baby in her womb truly belonged to me, even if she chased me away or hit me with a knife, I wouldn’t leave her!"
Shao Junhe's words thundered through Lian’s mind like a sudden clap of lightning. She was stunned and shaking from the good news.
"The baby in Yan Luoxi’s womb isn’t yours!" Lian blinked hard, making sure she wasn't dreaming. As she blinked again, her brain finally processed what he had said.
How could this be How could it be like this
The child in Yan Luoxi's womb was not Shao Junhe’s; the self-torture, despair, and madness she had experienced during these days were all her own delusions!
Shock, confusion, joy, and excitement—various emotions welled up within Li An like a drop of ink spreading uncontrollably in clear water. The child Yan Luoxi was carrying wasn’t Shao Junhe’s, could it be his own!
He had been so insanely jealous here, not knowing that Yan Luoxi was already pregnant with a child for him and he would soon become a father.
How could such an amazing and wonderful thing exist in the world
Li An’s face flushed red with excitement as he looked at Shao Junhe before him with boundless gratitude. "Brother, you’re too kind! After being together with Yan Luoxi for so long, both of you still remained chaste for me and left me an opportunity. How should I thank you"
Then, he suddenly recalled Shao Junhe’s solemn expression just now when he asked him and his family whether they could accept the child in Yan Luoxi's womb.
If this baby were his, why would Shao Junhe use the word 'accept'
Li An’s heart, which was boiling hot a moment ago, suddenly cooled down several degrees.
In just such a short time span, Li An felt as though he had gone back and forth between heaven and hell multiple times.
Tolerating the conflicting emotions on his face, Li An tentatively asked Shao Junhe: "Bean Sprout, did Luoxi tell you who the child in her womb belongs to"ering. He was becoming more neurotic, furious, rude, unbearable!Li An frowned at her, scrutinizing her from head to toe for quite some time before finally shaking his head and giving a cold "cluck" li...
