Chapter 85:
“You’re afraid of losing face yourself, aren’t you?” Zhao Yunrui said, broken jar broken falling, “I don’t care anyway, in their eyes I’m just an idle rich second generation, what do I have to fear.”
Previously, it was due to family pressure forcing him into a marriage alliance, now the Meng Family project has problems, everyone avoids it like the plague, the marriage alliance has no benefits, the Zhao Family also wants to find an opportunity to break off this engagement.
Meng Yan held back, “I think there’s no need for us to make such a scene, letting people in the social circle laugh at us, it won’t benefit you or me.”
“Isn’t it you who’s suspicious all the time? Always looking for trouble, which man can tolerate you like this?” Zhao Yunrui poked at her sore spot, “You don’t have any demeanor of a proper young lady, compared to your younger sister Meng Shuyou, you’re far inferior.”
Sure enough, Meng Yan was so angry her chest heaved, “On what basis do you compare me to an illegitimate daughter!”
Her voice sharp, she said: “If you weren’t still involved with your ex-girlfriend behind my back, would I be like this?”
Zhao Yunrui hated her like this the most, “I said that day it was just a coincidence I ran into her, she was drunk, I just sent her back to her room.”
Meng Yan didn’t believe this excuse, “If I weren’t there, you’d have rolled into bed with her, right.”
Zhao Yunrui was too lazy to argue, “Believe it or not, we’re breaking off the engagement anyway.”
Meng Yan took a breath, pulling back her reason.
This engagement absolutely cannot be broken off.
She calmed down, placing her hand on her lower abdomen, “I’m pregnant, think it over clearly, do you still want to break off the engagement.”
Zhao Yunrui’s expression froze, “What did you say?”
Meng Yan repeated, “I’m already pregnant, you handle it.”
Zhao Yunrui was suspicious, “Are you lying to me?”
How could it be such a coincidence, why get pregnant at this critical juncture when any other time would do.
Meng Yan looked at him calmly, “I can give you the pregnancy test result when I get back.”
–
At seven in the morning, Shu Man woke up on time.
Meng Shuyou was still sleeping, she had drawn a draft last night and only slept at one in the morning.
Shu Man didn’t disturb her, sitting alone on the bed looking at a story picture book.
She was mostly very quiet, her mind like that of a young child.
Meng Shuyou slept until seven-thirty, opened her eyes and looked beside her, “Older Sister, why are you awake already.”
Shu Man curved her lips at her.
Meng Shuyou reached for the mobile phone by the pillow, checked the time, “Let’s wash up and go out for breakfast.”
She got up from the attendant bed, took Shu Man to the bathroom to freshen up, and even braided a pretty fishtail braid for her.
At eight, they finished packing and went out.
They ate breakfast at a breakfast shop near the hospital, and after eating went for a stroll in the park.
The two sisters had some resemblance in appearance, with the same hairstyle, high attractiveness, high rate of people turning to look at them on the road.
The weather outside was quite hot, the sun getting stronger, at ten they returned to the hospital.
Waiting for the elevator on the first floor.
Shu Man stared at the numbers jumping on the display screen.
“Ding—”
The elevator door opened.
She looked up and saw the person inside, scared into retreating repeatedly, tightly grabbing Meng Shuyou’s arm, “Yaoyao… bad person…”
Meng Yan looked at the two sisters in surprise, walked out of the elevator, “Meng Shuyou, when did you come back?”
Meng Shuyou ignored her, pulling Shu Man behind her to soothe her, “It’s okay, I’m here.”
Meng Yan frowned, “You came back to the country but didn’t go home, aren’t you afraid Dad will blame you?”
Meng Shuyou met her gaze, countering: “Why should I be afraid? Do you still have anything you can threaten me with?”
Meng Yan opened her mouth, speechless.
Indeed, the Meng Family had cut off all her economic sources, yet she was still living well.
“What are you doing at the hospital? Want to come find trouble with my older sister again?” Meng Shuyou’s gaze was icy cold, “I haven’t settled the score from last time with you, try touching her once more, and I’ll make you pay the price.”
Probably from spending too much time with Pei Yuzhou, she had two parts of his oppressive aura.
Meng Yan was intimidated by her, almost showing weakness, barely steadying her mind, “I’ll say it again, she fell by herself accidentally, it has nothing to do with me, you have no evidence, why slander me?”
Meng Shuyou knew Meng Yan too well, there was nothing she wouldn’t do, “You’d better pray I don’t find evidence.”
Meng Yan gripped her handbag tightly, her gaze unintentionally falling on her wrist, wearing a full diamond inlaid platinum bracelet, one look and it was clear it was very valuable, “You’ve found yourself a sugar daddy outside?”
“What does it have to do with you?” Meng Shuyou didn’t want to tangle with her, “Get out of the way.”
“No wonder you’re not afraid at all.” Meng Yan stepped forward and grabbed her wrist, “This bracelet isn’t cheap, right? Abroad, which old man did you hook up with who’s so generous?”
Meng Shuyou was just about to struggle free when Shu Man suddenly came over and bit down hard on Meng Yan’s arm.
“Ah—”
Meng Yan screamed, forcefully pushing Shu Man away, “Crazy!”
Shu Man stumbled, nearly falling.
Meng Shuyou timely supported her, “Older Sister, are you okay?”
Shu Man steadied herself, timidly shaking her head.
Meng Shuyou had no more patience, she could tolerate grievances to herself, but her older sister was her bottom line, “Meng Yan, I warn you, stay away from us, otherwise I won’t be polite to you.”
Meng Yan clutched her painful arm, anger pent up in her chest, “How won’t you be polite to me? What can you do to me?”
Meng Shuyou’s eyes darkened, her voice cold and emotionless, “You really think I don’t dare to touch you, huh?”
“Try touching me.” Meng Yan touched her belly, fearless, “I’m pregnant, if anything happens to me, neither the Zhao Family nor the Meng Family will let you off.”
Meng Shuyou was stunned for a moment, “You’re pregnant?”
Meng Yan curved her lips, “Yes, you want to see the joke of me breaking off the engagement? No way.”
Recently there had been quite a few gossips in the social circle about her and Zhao Yunrui, many people waiting to watch the show, she was determined not to let them have their wish.
Meng Shuyou reminded her, “Then stay home obediently and nurture the fetus, don’t come out being an eyesore.”
“You—”
More and more passersby gathered.
Meng Yan couldn’t gain the upper hand, and didn’t want to cause a scene at the hospital, so she could only leave angrily.
High heels clicked crisply on the floor.
Meng Shuyou couldn’t help suspecting, was she really pregnant or falsely pregnant, walking so fast in high heels of seven or eight centimeters.
Shu Man’s tense body relaxed, she spoke softly: “Yaoyao…”
Meng Shuyou came back to herself, took her hand, “Older Sister, I’m fine, let’s go upstairs.”
–
The next day, Dr. George and the expert medical team arrived at the hospital.
The white coat in the lead was a fifty-something American man wearing round-framed glasses with graying temples, “Miss Elara.”
Meng Shuyou was very polite, “Professor, hello, thank you for coming all this way, my older sister will be troubling you.”
“No problem.” He said: “Let me see the patient’s previous check-up reports first, to understand the basic situation.”
“All here.” Meng Shuyou handed over the folder, thick stack inside, all check-up results from these years preserved perfectly.
Shu Man saw so many unfamiliar faces in white clothes in the hospital room, hugged her knees and shrank toward the edge of the bed.
