Chapter 461 - The Pregnant Lady Is Here
Chapter 461: The Pregnant Lady Is Here
After she had fallen asleep, Lu Yi pulled the blanket over her body. She hadn’t been sleeping well lately, so once she has the chance she should really take a long rest. But judging by her behaviour, he didn’t know how long it would take for her to make a full recovery. First of all, Lu Yi was worried about the amount of weight she had lost for the past few days, for he did not know how many days it would be until she gain it all back.
What was most difficult was that ever since she was born, Yan Huan was the kind of woman who would eat a lot but not gain weight.
Other women did not dare to eat nor drink for fear that they would gain weight; but, he would have to beg her to eat, and also give her the amount of food equivalent to feeding a pig, only then did she gain some weight. But now all his efforts have gone to waste after merely a few days of his absence.
Now, Yan Huan fell asleep easily, mainly because she was too tired. When she was at Serene City she practically didn’t sleep at all, so now that she had finally gotten a pillow and blanket, she would naturally sleep well, and it was the kind that was difficult to wake up from.
Lu Yi opened the door and walked out, and when he returned, he brought his laptop with him as well. He sat down, placed the laptop on his legs and typed quickly on the keyboard.
His fingers were fast, so fast to the point of the unthinkable. Only the shadows above his fingers could be seen as they continuously went across each other, aligning parallel with each other and finally turning into a mess of fingers. He continued to do this until his fingers stopped.
Lu Yi frowned, and he seemed unhappy.
Indeed, he had guessed it right.
Before the earthquake, an ID tried to explain about the occurrence of the earthquake through the web, but at the moment in time, no one believed it.
Although this ID had sent its message from a cyber cafe, he only needed to investigate a little more to get the information he wanted.
Once again, he typed on the keyboard. He deleted everything to do with this ID, as if it had never appeared before.
He shut down the laptop, then reached out his hand to help Yan Huan pull up her blanket.
“How could you be so careless, what if someone found out about it?”
Again, he grazed his fingers across Yan Huan’s face, but he did not dare touch her. Her body was practically covered in injuries, where there weren’t cuts, there would be bruises. This whole journey wasn’t easy for her, but he didn’t know how long was she going to stay this stubborn.
In reality, you still don’t trust me fully, Lu Yi sighed softly. He shook his head, closed the laptop, placed it aside and laid down beside her. Of course, the light above the bed remained on, because Yan Huan was afraid of the dark.
Early in the morning, while Lu Yi was still asleep, he heard someone knocking on the gate. He took the watch he had set aside and looked at the time. It’s only about 5 a.m., is the milk delivery man this early today?
But soon, he knew that this was not the milk delivery man, because even for the milk delivery man, he would not bang on the door to this extent. This wasn’t knocking, this was exacting revenge on the door.
Yan Huan pulled at the blanket with her fingers in discomfort.
“Wanna sleep…”
“Okay, sleep, sleep, continue sleeping,” Lu Yi gave a few soft pats on her back, trying to comfort her.
He stood up and closed the door to their bedroom. Then, he walked out to open the front door. That person was still banging on the front door. This person definitely has a grudge against the door, or else who would come banging on the door at such an early hour? Yes, it was banging, not knocking.
The moment he opened the door, a woman rushed in feverishly. Lu Yi frantically got out of the way so that this woman wouldn’t bump into him. Of course, he was also afraid that this woman would be knocked over.
“My Royal Highness, slow down!” Lei Qingyi who was outside was shocked to the point that his heart had jumped to his throat, then to his eyes. He hurriedly went forward and reached out his hand to grab hold of Yi Ling’s clothes. She had another life in that tummy, and if this is lost, his mother will definitely hit him to death.
“Where is my Huanhuan?” Yi Ling asked Lu Yi with her stomach bulging. Lu Yi could only dodge carefully so as to not really hurt this woman who was treated as a national treasure of the Lei family.
“She’s asleep.” Lu Yi stood by the door and blocked Yi Ling’s path. “She’s too tired, so please let her rest for a while.”
Yi Ling’s hand which was raised in the air, dropped down just like that. Then, she turned around and as if letting out her anger, stepped on Lei Qingyi’s foot. These days, Lei Qingyi’s foot has been bearing the brunt of her anger as it would definitely have to be stepped on at least a few times every day.
But as long as his wife could disperse her anger, aside from having his foot stepped on, even if he had to cut off his leg, he would be willing.
Yi Ling sat down, but the expression on her face showed extreme dissatisfaction and anger.
“How did my Huanhuan end up in Serene City? Something so terrifying happened to her and yet none of you decided to tell me?”
Lei Qingyi quickly raised his hands in the air as a sign of surrender. Didn’t he explain himself already? How could he have known that Yan Huan had gone to Serene City? She could go wherever she wanted, and there was no need for her to report to him.
As for when something happened to Yan Huan, he really couldn’t tell her, nor did he have the courage to do so. Yi Ling was pregnant, and according to her stubborn attitude, she would definitely want to fly off to Serene City. It was chaos in Serene City, so how could he let her know? Nonetheless, Yi Ling found out in the end. He was too dumb as well for giving her his phone. Yi Ling couldn’t help herself and out of habit, went to look at Yan Huan’s weibo. No matter what, Yan Huan’s weibo was the result of her hard work. It felt as if it was another child of her’s, so naturally she would want to always update herself. Due to the child in her belly, the people in the Lei family stopped her from using her phone, though it was more because of what had happened to Yi Ling. However, she still found out about it in the end.
This was why she had come over at such an early hour, for no matter what she was adamant that she wanted to see Yan Huan.
“Why didn’t you tell me? It was precisely because you didn’t tell me that I only just found out about what had happened to Huanhuan.” Yi Ling reached out her hand to pinch Lei Qingyi’s cheeks harshly. When she felt that one hand was not enough, she pinched the other cheek as well. All the skin on Lei Qingyi’s face had been lifted up, but he could only smile. Now, Yi Ling’s emotions were very weird, so it was better for him to just go along with her. Or else if she really got angry, the one in her tummy would be bearing the brunt of it too.
Lei Qingyi truly felt that he was quite pitiful.
When he was young, he would be bullied by Lu Yi. After they had grown up, despite the fact that he was taller than Lu Yi, he would still be bullied by him. At home, he would be bullied by his mother. Then after he married his wife, he had to be bullied also by her. In the future, he might even be bullied by his own son.
His personality must be too gentle, or else why would everyone only know how to bully such an honest man like him?
It seemed as if his personality was really too gentle. But he was a truly venomous man, so how did he fall to this extent?
“Are the both of you done?” With his own fingers, Lu Yi knocked on the table lightly.
“My wife is sleeping. If you guys want to fight then can you bring the fight home?”
Yi Ling hurriedly released her hold and Lei Qingyi touched his face. Thank goodness, my face and skin are still here.
Lu Yi sat down, but the expression on Yi Ling’s face was even worse now. She will remember what he did today.
“Yi Ling…” Lu Yi called out Yi Ling’s name.
