"Brother Mingxun, you wouldn't believe what she says, would you?"
Jiang Xinjie whimpered, "Qianxun is always like this, she just can't stand to see me prosper. It's my fault too; why did I fall in love with you? We both love the same man and that is bound to cause trouble."
"Alright, quit crying."
Li Mingxun embraced Jiang Xinjie, "I believe you and more importantly, I trust what I see."
"Brother Mingxun, you are so good to me."
Jiang Xinjie placed her face near Li Mingxun's chest and added faintly, "I've known Qianxun for many years. She's a flirtatious woman, changing men so frequently that it is shocking. I advised her, but she never listened."
"You don't need to concern yourself with her matters."
Li Mingxun calmed Jiang Xinjie while his mind unconsciously wandered back to 'that' night.
Luo Qianxun sure was a good actress, pretending that it was her first time.
The thought was laughable.
"I'll go and wash the cherries."
Li Mingxun helped Jiang Xinjie lie down.
"Hmm."
Jiang Xinjie watched Li Mingxun walk to the kitchen, a smirk graced her face.
She was enjoying her stay in this VIP hospital room, all of this provided by Li Mingxun.
How could she possibly let go of such a lucrative ticket to an easy life?
No matter how steadfastly Luo Qianxun refuses to sign the divorce papers, she can't hold out for long.
--
Luo Qianxun left the hospital and walked slowly along the street alone.
She could no longer hold back her tears as they slid down her cheeks.
"Grandma, what do I do?"
Luo Qianxun wiped her tears, she deeply missed her grandmother. But she had passed away.
Would her grandma regret pushing her into this marriage with Li Mingxun, knowing that she was not happy?
Even though Li Mingxun did not love her, she did not regret the leap she took in having him in her life once.
Now, she just wanted to protect the child inside her and deliver them safely.
"Qianxun?"
Bai Lang was about to enter the hospital in his car when he spotted Luo Qianxun just ahead.
He immediately made a U-turn and pulled up next to her, "Where are you going? Let me give you a ride."
"No need."
Luo Qianxun shook her head, "Why are you here?"
"I work at this hospital."
Bai Lang's words made Luo Qianxun pause, "You work here?"
"Qianxun, how little have you paid attention to me?"
Bai Lang looked helplessly at Luo Qianxun, "After graduation, I joined this hospital. I've been on an annual leave for few days and just came back on duty today."
"Sorry."
Luo Qianxun flashed a bitter smile, she had spent the entire year in a haze, her whole heart focused on Li Mingxun. She simply had no energy to be concerned about anything else.
"Qianxun, you don't seem well, do you feel unwell anywhere?"
Bai Lang got out of the car, opened the passenger door and said, "Come to the hospital with me, I'll perform an examination."
"That won't be necessary."
Luo Qianxun shook her head, "I've studied medicine halfway through. I know my body's condition. I'm just hypoglycemic."
She didn't want to return to the hospital with Bai Lang as she didn't want her pregnancy to be discovered just yet.
Moreover, she was a pharmaceutical student and although she wasn't a doctor, she knew the basic medical knowledge.
"Senior, you should quickly get back to work. I'll just stroll around and go home later."
"Alright."
Bai Lang didn't persist, "If you need anything feel free to call me. I haven't changed my number."
Truth be told, he checked his phone subconsciously every day but Luo Qianxun had never contacted him since graduation.
To say he wasn't disappointed would be a lie.
Even though she got married, they were still friends, weren't they?
