"No one's giving me trouble. You don't have to help me," said Zhuo Qianyun."I see. That's a relief." Yan Qiongying acted as if she cared for Zhuo Qianyun like a sister."By the way, let's have a meal together when you're free. It'll be my treat. We must celebrate our reunion after all these years," said Yan Qiongying."Well..." Zhuo Qianyun hesitated."You don't even want to have a meal with me? Others tried to beat you up when you were pregnant back then. I felt sorry for you and begged them to let you go." Yan Qiongying mentioned what had happened in the past once more.Zhuo Qianyun said, "Okay, let's have dinner together, but it's going to be my treat. I should thank you for helping me back then.""Whose treat it is doesn’t matter. That's settled, then. We'll go out for a good meal the next time I visit you!" With that said, Yan Qiongying left in satisfaction.Zhuo Qianyun sighed. For some reason, she felt vaguely uneasy. She had a feeling that Yan Qiongying seemed eager for
"Mr. Ye, it’s best if you stop getting your blood drawn for a while. We recommend the average healthy person donate blood once every six months. You’ve had your blood drawn twice in a short time. You need to wait six months before you can get your blood drawn again,” the doctor said.'Six months?' Ye Wenming smiled wrily. 'Six months won't do. Qianyun's baby might be born in less than six months. There won't be enough blood when we need it.'The blood bank did not have much bags of such rare blood types. "Let’s do it once a month, then,” said Ye Wenming. It was only once a month for just a few months. He hoped to have enough blood in the blood bank before Qianyun gave birth."That's too risky. If you do it once a month, it could kill you!" the doctor said."I know my limits, and I'll hire a professional nutritionist to take care of my diet. It won't have any impact on my body. If the hospital is afraid of being held accountable, I can also sign a disclaimer with the hospital," sa
Ye Wenming stabilized himself, but his eyes were still closed and his hand was on his forehead.Zhuo Qianyun only saw Ye Wenming's ghastly pale face in the moonlight. Even his lips seemed grayish. She was supporting him, so her hand touched his. She found it dreadfully cold.After a while, Ye Wenming finally opened his eyes slowly and stood up straight. "I'm going home.""What happened to you?" Zhuo Qianyun could not help asking. He seemed weak. Even though he was standing on his feet, he seemed shaky. It was as if he would fall any moment."Me?" Ye Wenming froze slightly before smiling nonchalantly. "I'm fine. I'm alright." However, only he knew that his body was so tired that every gesture seemed to weigh a thousand pounds.He should have gone back to have a good rest after having his blood drawn, but he longed to see her. Therefore, he came here again.Even though the store was closed, just seeing the lights inside made him feel closer to her."Are you sure you're alright?" s
"So you want me to live?" His eyes sparkled as if they were covered with a layer of starlight.She froze. The light in his eyes made her unable to look directly at him, and she could only vaguely say, "Whatever floats your boat.""If you want me to live, then I'll live. No matter how hard it is, I'll live!" he said.He had thought that she did not care about his life and might even wish he was dead. However, she did not want anything to happen to him. Even though she said it was only because of the children, it was something that could keep him going."Call your driver and ask him to pick you up," said Zhuo Qianyun."Ah, okay," he answered, took out his phone, and dialed the driver's number.When he finished the call moments later, he heard her voice ring out again. "My neighbor told me that you've been driving over and looking at the store these days."Bewilderment flashed across his face. He looked like a student caught by a teacher for doing something wrong. "I... I just..."
As soon as she took the medical kit over, she saw Ye Wenming picking up the glass shards that had fallen to the ground."What are you picking them up for? Stop picking them up!" she said quickly."I'm sorry I made such a mess... I'll clean it up," he said."No, I'll do it later!" Zhuo Qianyun took away the glass shards he picked up and looked at his hands. Fortunately, the glass shards did not puncture his skin, so it was relatively simple to tend the wounds.She quickly took cotton and gauze to stop the bleeding first. "Let me know if it hurts," she said.However, he did not say a word while she was stopping the bleeding for him. It was as if he felt no pain.Once she briefly treated the wounds on his hands, she looked up only to look straight into his eyes.Zhuo Qianyun turned away, but Ye Wenming said, "If I hadn't forced you to abort the baby, would things have been better between us? Would we... have gone back to the way things were? Perhaps... you would’ve fallen in love w
She must have stained them when she bandaged his wounds!Her bloodstained skin suddenly burned a little. Zhuo Qianyun bit her lip slightly and quickly turned on the faucet to wash her hands.The blood on her hands immediately washed away, but the burning feeling seemed to remain.His pale face and weak appearance kept flashing across her mind.‘Is he really just tired? I’ve never seen him like that before. Even when I was dressing his wounds, I could feel the iciness of his hands.’For some reason, she felt a certain uneasiness.'Gosh. Stop thinking about it.'Zhuo Qianyun shook her head to get rid of everything about Ye Wenming in her mind. She and Ye Wenming were opposites. Though they briefly crossed paths, it would be nothing more than an encounter!...The next day, Mrs. Zhuo found a glass missing. When she asked about it, Zhuo Qianyun said awkwardly, "I accidentally broke it when I got up to have a drink.""Oh, you didn't hurt yourself, did you?" asked Mrs. Zhuo, worrie
At the same time, she also gave herself a warning, telling herself not to fall for him. She must not fall for him and make the same mistake.Once she let herself fall, perhaps she would be doomed!...In the evening of the next day, Yan Qiongying drove over to find Zhuo Qianyun."Qianyun, we agreed to have a simple meal together last time. There's a new restaurant that's really nice. Why don't we go try it out? I even drove over to pick you up. You won't say no, will you?" said Yan Qiongying.Zhuo Qianyun hesitated slightly before smiling. "Let's have dinner together. Just give me a second." With that said, Zhuo Qianyun told her mother and son where she was going before picking up her bag and leaving the store. She followed Yan Qiongying into her car.Yan Qiongying took her to a high-end hot pot restaurant, which had become quite popular online recently. It was said to be targeted at the upper class.Zhuo Qianyun saw the elaborate furnishings and knew the food here would be expe
Zhuo Qianyun speculated but sat down calmly.Yan Qiongying introduced, "Everyone, this is my friend, Zhuo Qianyun. Qianyun, this is my man... Wu Huairen. The others are Mr. Wang, Mr. Ma, and Mr. Yu."Wu Huairen said to Zhuo Qianyun with a smile, "Ying Ying has been talking about you a lot these two days. She said you two have been friends for years. We can get to know each other through this meal today! I heard you're pregnant, so I ordered a sweet soup suitable for pregnant women. Why don't you try it out?"Sure enough, a serving of sweet soup was right in front of Zhuo Qianyun’s seat."Thank you," said Zhuo Qianyun."You're welcome." Wu Huairen's smile was obsequious."Miss Zhuo's pregnant? Congratulations! Why don't you call the father out to have a meal with us? The more, the merrier. We can make it a celebration for Miss Zhuo's baby!" said Mr. Wang.Zhuo Qianyun's heart sank. 'So... that's what they're after! These people want to get in contact with Ye Wenming!'That's why
