Chapter 1127: She’s Carrying Lu Nanze’s Child (3)
Pregnant.
Qiao Yiyi looked excitedly at the test results in her hand, her eyes glistening with tears.
The child came at a critical time.
With this child, surely Second Brother would let her leave this place.
From the dejected woman that she had just been moments ago, she was suddenly inspired and touched.
Grabbing Zhao Yang’s wrist, she ordered as she looked steadily at him, “Zhao Yang, I’m now pregnant with Second Brother’s child! Call him immediately and tell him. Ask him to let me out. I want to get out of this place!”
When Zhao Yang heard these words, the look of excitement on his face suddenly vanished.
He looked steadily at Qiao Yiyi, who was now pacing to and fro the room in an agitated state, saying, “This child belongs to Second Brother, I wonder if it’s a boy or a girl. If it’s a girl, what do we name her? If it’s a boy, he will someday inherit Second Brother’s estate. That’s right, hurry up and tell Second Brother. I hear that we should be able to tell the gender of the child after three months.”
She was beside herself with excitement and emotions.
Seeing her like this made Zhao Yang feel increasingly sorrowful.
He opened his mouth and eventually had to say, “Ms. Qiao, Mr. Lu has never liked you, you should already know.”
Those words drenched her like a bucket of cold water, waking her up in an instant.
She spun around, looked at Zhao Yang fiercely and said, “What nonsense are you speaking? Second Brother likes me! Except that he doesn’t know it yet. If that tr*mp Qiao Lian didn’t exist, I’d be the person he liked.”
She said this is as though trying to convince herself. She paced the room and continued, “That’s right, you don’t understand Second Brother. He is an exceptionally nasty man and if he hadn’t liked me all these years, he wouldn’t have accepted me and wouldn’t have been intimate with me. He hates doing things against his own will. Didn’t you see that he never had another woman by his side in all these years? I admit, he likes Qiao Lian, but he likes me too.”
After she said this, she spun around and looked at Zhao Yang again. “Hurry up and inform Second Brother, tell him I’m pregnant.”
“And after that?” Zhao Yang suddenly felt that Qiao Yiyi was loathsome for behaving like this. It made her pathetic.
Qiao Yiyi paused. And after that?
That’s right. What then, after that?
It was true that, since she was now pregnant, the cards were stacked in her favor to get out of this place.
But given that the Second Brother was hitting on Qiao Lian, surely he wouldn’t set her free now. He would be afraid that once Qiao Lian knew about the existence of this child, the hopes of them being together would disappear.
In hindsight, Qiao Yiyi, who had initially been ecstatic about her pregnancy, began to have second thoughts.
She bit her lip.
After a moment, she looked at Zhao Yang and said, “Zhao Yang, can you do me a favor?”
Zhao Yang’s eyes narrowed at her words.
Looking at him, she continued, “This child in me is Second Brother’s firstborn and perhaps the only child that he’ll ever have. You have to understand, this child will eventually be the head of the Lu family. Zhao Yang, helping this child would be the same as helping Second Brother, do you understand?”
Zhao Yang hung his head and asked, “What are you thinking of doing?”
“Help me inform my parents that I’m pregnant.”
