âWhy do you come here?â Deng Jingjingâs smile gets cold.
Yan Hua has noticed that she said âwhy do you come hereâ instead of âwhy do you go home.â Obviously, she doesnât regard Lang Ruoxian as a part of the family.
âThere is a file that Dad needs to sign.â Lang Ruoxian nods his head toward Yan Hua as if he didnât hear what Deng Jingjing said.
Deng Jingjing curls her lips: âDonât you know that? He went golfing with friends early in the morning.â
âWell...â Lang Ruoxian frowns and then smiles. âItâs my fault that I didnât tell him in advance. I can put the documents in the study room, and I will ask the secretary to fetch it after Dad signs it.â
Deng Jingjing sees Lang Ruoxian has gone into the study room and turns her eyes to Yan Hua: âDonât you know what I mean? Since you have a child of Lang Family, we are a family. Donât worry. I wonât harm you anymore.â
âHeheâ¦â Yan Hua smiles, but unfortunately Deng Jingjing is too conceited to find the indifference in her eyes.
When Lang Ruoxian comes out, Deng Jingjing suddenly stands up: âRuoxian, arenât you free today?â
âI have a meeting to attend in the afternoon.â Lang Ruoxianâs smile has been indifferent, but Yan Hua always finds it cold-blooded.
Deng Jingjing points to Yan Hua with her chin: âItâs still early. You go to the mall with Yan Hua to buy something for the baby.â
âAuntie, thatâs OK. Aunt Hongyue has already...â
âShe canât represent us!â Deng Jingjing interrupts her, âJust go! You can go shopping at ease with Ruoxian to accompany you.â
Therefore, Yan Hua is sitting in the car of Lang Ruoxian, so confused.
âSeat belt.â He sees her sitting still, so he leans over to help her.
Yan Hua is shocked. She hides from him and belts herself up.
âAre you afraid of me?â Lang Ruoxian looks at her with a spurious smile.
Yan Hua curls her lips: âNo, Iâm not.â
âThen why are you so nervous?â
âIâm not nervous.â
âYou are wearing my seat belt.â Lang Ruoxian picks up a belt.
Yan Hua is so embarrassed, no wonder she found the seat belt is so short. She thought her abdomen became bigger again...
She hands Lang Ruoxianâs seat belt to him, and belts herself up again. Then she leans against the back of the car seat and looks out through the window.
âWhy are you so thin?â The man drives the car and asks her after a while.
Yan Hua looks at him eccentrically: âI have gain more than 10 jin.â
âWhy are you staring at my abdomen?â After she said that, Lang Ruoxian keeps staring at her abdomen.
âLook at the woman outside.â The red traffic light is on now, and Lang Ruoxian points to the roadside.
Yan Hua turns her head and sees a pregnant woman who is very fat. Sheâs not fatter except her abdomen, and the other parts of her body seem even thinner due to her bigger abdomen.
âIt varies from person to person. Some pregnant women will get fatter, but some are just like me.â Yan Hua glances at Lang Ruoxian. âDonât you think that all the pregnant will become fat?â
Lang Ruoxian steps on the gas again and turns the steering wheel, saying, âAt least getting a little fatter proves eating much.â
âBut I do eat much.â Yan Hua believes he has misunderstandings about pregnant women. âMy baby absorbs it well, so Iâm not fat. Those who are fat really eat too much and the fetus doesnât absorb it well. Itâs almost absorbed by the mother.â
Yan Hua, babbling on and on, tells him a lot of common senses. She suddenly stops speaking.
âThatâs it?â Lang Ruoxian curves his lips and shows a suspicious smile. âGo on.â
âNo, I get tired.â Yan Hua finds that she canât take it lightly when she is with this guy, or she will be leaded by the nose...
Lang Ruoxian snorts and says no more. Itâs quiet in the car, and the warm wind blows on Yan Huaâs face, making her sleepy. Someone pushes her gently after some time.
âWeâve reached.â Lang Ruoxian pulls out the key to car.
Yan Hua rubs her eyes and finds that she is already in the underground parking lot. She is a little surprised when she looks at the time.
âWhy does it take so long?â It takes almost an hour to drive from home to this mall even if in the case of traffic jams.
Lang Ruoxian has helped her open the door: âThere are too much traffic jams on the way today. Do you want to buy something?â
âLetâs look around first!â Yan Hua naturally follows his topic. âIn fact, there is really nothing to prepare. Isnât it all arranged?â
Lang Hongyue has knocked through Yan Huaâs bedroom and the room next to it. The next room has been decorated as a baby room. There are all that is necessary and the most high-class.
âThe things bought by others are not the same as what you like.â When the elevator door closes, Lang Ruoxian says that.
Yan Hua takes a step back and looks at the man wantonly.
Which one is the real him? What role does he play in Lang Family? And⦠Yan Hua remembers that the man in a wheelchair who kidnapped her a few months ago, almost looks the same as Lang Ruoxian.
âYouâ¦â She opens her mouth, but she doesnât ask anything.
When the elevator reaches the floor for motherhood supplies, Lang Ruoxian leans to one side and asks her to get out of the elevator first. When Yan Hua walks past him, she hears the man say:
âYou donât have to figure out everything. Being too serious is not necessarily a good thing.â
Yan Hua looks back at him after walking several steps: âItâs better to be serious about something. After all, Iâm bound to you by no ties. I donât want to see that Iâm still grateful to you after you harm me some day.â
âLook at that man!â
âSo handsome!â
âItâs a pity that he has already married. And his wife is also so beautiful...â
A few women who enter the elevator whispers, and Yan Hua leaves indifferently at once. Lang Ruoxian follows her leisurely. There are not so many people in the morning. The shopping guides find that they look rich, all being particularly enthusiastic to introduce goods to Yan Hua.
âYou are so nice to your wife!â In a shop selling smart dolls, a shopping guide is introducing a surveillance doll with a camera for Yan Hua. And Lang Ruoxian, standing on the place not far away from her, is waiting for her.
A beautiful young shopping guide comes close to him, with her eyes staring at him.
Lang Ruoxian wears a faint smile on his face. The young shopping guide is stunned by him, paying no attention to the disgust in the manâs eyes. She is still imagining that such a man is who she wants.
Rich, handsome, and more importantly gentle.
âLet me introduce other products to you!â Qi Lili believes that itâs her opportunity to change her life. She is immediately full of fighting spirit.
Lang Ruoxian looks at her, says thank you very gracefully, and then follows her. After Yan Hua selects a smart doll, she sees Lang Ruoxian come out of the fitting room.
â...â What did he try on?
Then, a beautiful shopping guide runs out at once while buttoning up her clothes in a muddle. Other shopping guides look at their blushing colleague and then at Yan Hua with strange eyes.
âSelected yet? âLang Ruoxian takes the paper bag in her hand like nothing happened, and goes out of the store with one hand behind her.
After they get very far from the store, Lang Ruoxian finds that Yan Hua still secretly watches him, so he turns his head sideways to her: âWhat do you want to ask me about?â
âWhat did you do to that girl just now?â Yan Hua really doesnât suspect that Lang Ruoxian did something bad.
It is impossible that Lang Ruoxian would be interested in doing that in the fitting room, let alone the fact that the girl just has a normal face compared with those in upper class. Although she canât see the man clearly in these months, she still knows a little.
âDo you want to know?â
â... You must tell me.â
âOh, then I wonât tell you.â
Yan Hua: â¦Humph!
And in the store, several shopping guides surround Qi Lili and talk to her with envy.
âOh my god. You are so good at finding chances.â
âHow about him? What does he do? â
âSuch a brute! His wife is pregnant. I canât believe that he did that with other woman...â
Everyone is talking, but Qi Lili remains silent.
âWhy donât you say anything?â One of the shopping guides touches her.
Qi Lili wants to smile but fails to do that. The truth isnât like what they imagine. That man... That man...
âCome in!â Qi Lili pushed the door of the fitting room and began to unbutton. Lang Ruoxian looked at her.
But the man stood still at the door. Qi Liliâs shirt was to be taken off, so she was anxious to reach out to pull him. However, he got out of the way, and his gentle eyes became angry.
âDo you think you are more beautiful than my wife?â
Qi Lili stuttered with a frigid smile on her face: âI... Iâ¦â
âYouâre so ugly and even seduce men.â He showed the disgust through his eyes, as if she was a so disgusting dirty thing.
Qi Liliâs face was flushed. It was the first time for her to do such thing. She had thought she could put herself under the patronage of a higher-up. But she didnât expect that...
The man turned around and walked away. She tied her buttons with panic and ran after him because she wanted to beg him not to tell others about it. But she found that he did not say anything at all and just left with his wife.
âCan you just stop asking?â Qi Lili feels so embarrassed.
After a long period of time, all the other shopping guides in the mall believe that she has become a fancy woman for a rich man, and joke with her every day. A male manager who used to be nice to her never talks to her again after that.
After a long time, Qi Lili knows that the manager had liked her. After hearing that she has hooked a rich man, he finds that she is the wrong person and immediately stays away from her.
Qi Lili regrets it so much, but unfortunately there is no remedy for repentance.
âHave you gone shopping with Ruoxian today?â When Lang Hongyue comes back at night, she goes straight to Yan Huaâs room.
Yan Hua is playing with the smart doll and raises her head. She says: âYes. Eldest Auntie asked him to take me to go shopping.â
âDeng Jingjing...â Lang Hongyue says with anger, âDo you remember my words?â
âYou said so many words. I donât know which one you mean.â Yan Hua certainly knows whatâs her meaning. Her baby is just like a piece of fat now, so both the eldest brother and Lang Hongyue want to take a bite of it.
Lang Hongyue is not satisfied with her attitude and throws the doll in her hand away: âDonât be too close to Lang Ruoxian, and donât fall in love with him just because he looks good. You are his sister-in-law. What if there appear affairs between you? If you donât care about it, what about your baby?â
âI know that I am his sister-in-law, so I will only be his sister-in-law.â Yan Hua feels puzzled. âDoes the fact that I talk to him mean that I like him?â
âItâs the best that you understand it.â Lang Hongyue stands up bitterly and says, âIâm afraid that you will forget your identity.â
