Before my uncle flew into a rage, I pulled Jing Tian along and ran away.
My uncle shouted angrily behind me, âYouâre still wearing your pajamas. Where are you running to? Get your ass back here and change before you go out!â
I looked at my own clothes and then at Jing Tian, who was neatly dressed. Jing Tian said with a smile, âGo change. Iâll wait for you in the restaurant.â
He shot a glance at my dark-faced uncle. âDonât be afraid. Heâs just angry because heâs being pursued. He canât experience the happiness of pursuing his lover.â
I walked past my uncle with a knowing look on my face. âShouldnât you be glad that Mai Qi only used her tricks on you and not on others?â I exclaimed
My uncle was stunned.
I sighed again. âYou really donât know how lucky you are!â
Before he could slap me, I had already flashed into the bedroom. I leaned against the door and laughed uncontrollably.
When I arrived at the dining room, Mai Qi yawned as she went downstairs. I looked her up and down. âHmm, youâre dressed conservatively today. What are you trying to hide?â
Mai Qiâs expression didnât look too good. She rolled her eyes at me. âYouâre the one who should be questioned. I heard that Jing Tian was thrown out by Aunt Lan yesterday. Did you take her in?â
I smiled but didnât say anything.
Mai Qi frowned as soon as she took a step down the stairs. âOuch!â.
âWhatâs wrong?â I held her up.
Mai Qi covered her stomach with her hands. âNanxing, my stomach hurts.â
Stomach hurts? An image of a child flashed across my mind. I whispered in her ear with a smile, âAre you overindulging yourself?â
Mai Qi bit her lips and didnât say anything. She tightened her grip on my hand.
I hurriedly helped her up and shouted, âCall Mr. Li and little uncle! Quickly call Mr. Li over!â
Little Uncle ran up three steps and picked Mai Qi up. âWhatâs wrong? Whatâs Wrong?â
âHer stomach hurts. Quick! Carry her to the bed! Call Mr. Li over!â
Mai Qi lay on the big bed with a pale face. There were fine beads of sweat on her forehead, and there were tears on her face.
Little uncle was like a cornered animal. He almost growled. He looked at Mr. Li, who was sitting by the bed to check his pulse. He wished that he could stare at him from the top of his head to see what was written inside.
Mr. Li put down Mai Qiâs hand. He first turned around and glared at little uncle. Then, he said to the group of us, âEveryone, go out. Iâm going to apply the needle.â
I quickly turned around and chased everyone out. When I closed the door, I shut myself in.
Mr. Li glared at me but didnât chase me out.
âSir, whatâs wrong with Mai Qi? Is it serious?â My uncleâs breathing was very careful, and he was so nervous that he was about to explode.
Mr. Li placed his needles on the bedside table and said slowly, âTong Le, youâre going to be a father. You have to abstain from abstinence and restrain yourself.â
What?n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
We didnât understand.
Mr. Li shook his head and sighed as he applied the needles. âYoung people donât know whatâs important! If something were to happen to you, wouldnât you regret it?â
âWait, wait, master, what did you say? What do you mean?â I stared at Mr. Li with widened eyes.
Mr. Li said indifferently, âWhat I mean is that the two of them are going to be parents. The child in Mai Qiâs stomach is almost two months old. Sigh! With such a heartless pair of parents, this child will have to fend for himself in the future!â
Mai Qi cried out in surprise.
Mr. Li was displeased. âDonât move!â
My youngest uncle was dumbfounded. âI, I, Iâm going to be a father? Mai Qi is pregnant?â
Mr. Li snorted coldly and couldnât be bothered with him.
