My Mysterious Husband

Chapter 318 You Must Abort the Child (2)

In the evening, just before dinner, Jingyan Ye came home exhausted. Without looking at the living room, he said, “I don’t want to eat dinner.” Then he went upstairs. After he took a few steps, Venus said, “Pingan, come here first.”

“Mom, I’m tired today. I want…” Jingyan said as he turned. Then he saw Xuan Zhao, standing in the living room, and said coldly, “What are you doing here?”

Xuan immediately hided behind Venus, like a frightened rabbit.

“Why are you so fierce? Who makes you angry? Come here.” Venus said unpleasantly.

As soon as Jingyan saw Xuan, he knew her intention of coming here. “No wonder she didn’t go to work this afternoon and her phone was off. It turns out that she comes to my home to get succor.” Jingyan thought.

Helplessly, Jingyan walked to the living room and sat down on the sofa wearily. “Mom, shall I take care of this myself?” Jingyan said patiently.

Venus snorted and said, “What do you want to do? Ask Xuan to abort the child?”

Jingyan looked up at Xuan, and didn’t say anything.

“I taught you when you were little that you should be responsible as you are a man. It’s your fault what happened that night. How can you ask Xuan to abort the child? Do you have any idea how bad an abortion can be for a woman?” Venus said indignantly. Then Venus noticed that Jingyan was tired and there were heavy dark circles under his eyelids, so her heart was softened. Venus sat down beside Jingyan and said, “Pingan, I know what you are thinking. But now that things have happened, why don’t we find a way to have it both ways?”

Jingyan clasped his hands together and didn’t speak for a long time.

“I don’t want this child. It’s OK to call me a man who cheats on a woman or say I am irresponsible. I just don’t want this child. With this child, I will be stuck with Xuan forever. I am afraid I won’t even be qualified to say I love Yiyao Duan when I see her next time.” Jingyan thought.

The atmosphere was at an impasse and no one wanted to compromise. Kerry was sitting beside reading the newspaper as if it had nothing to do with him and he was just a spectator.

Kerry didn’t want to make his wife angry or embarrass his son, so the best thing to do was to shut up.

“I am back.” Ruyi’s voice came from the door, “Oh, why are there so many people today?”

Ruyi skipped into the living room and saw Xuan sitting in the corner of the sofa. Although Ruyi didn’t know Xuan well, she knew who Xuan is when she saw Jingyan’s facial expression.

“Nothing happened for the past more than a month. Why is she here now?” Ruyi thought.

Chuxue Ye sat next to Jingyan and asked Venus with a smile, “Mom, who is she?”

“She is Xuan Zhao.” Venus said.

“Xuan Zhao?” Chuxue pretended to be confused and wagged her head to think for a long time, saying, “Oh, I remember that she is the one who took my brother to the hotel when my brother was drunk.”

What Chuxue said was so profound that everyone present could not help being embarrassed. Even Xuan’s heart was racing.

“Hello, Miss Ye.” Xuan stood up and greeted Chuxue.

“Sit down.” Chuxue looked at Xuan with a faint smile on her face and said, “Although you have had sex with my brother, I have a question I’ve been keeping under my skin for a long time. I want to ask you as I see you today.”

“Go ahead, please.” Xuan said nervously.

Chuxue crossed her legs and said, “My brother was drunk that night. Why didn’t you just take him back to Ye’s villa, but took him to the hotel? Don’t you know it’s dangerous for a girl to be alone with a man at night?”

Xuan’s face turned red gradually and she said, “I didn’t think about it at that time, and I didn’t know where your house is.”

“Really? I heard you are my brother’s secretary. Why don’t you know where your boss lives?” Chuxue asked.

Xuan lowered her head nervously and said, “I didn’t do my job well. I really didn’t know where Mr Ye lives.”

“So how do you know where he lives today? By the way, you are here on your own, right?” Chuxue said.

Xuan bit her lower lip and didn’t know how to answer. She was afraid that the whole thing would be exposed, so she stood up and said to Venus, “Mrs Ye, you don’t have to press me for an answer. Since you don’t want the child, I will raise it by myself. Don’t bother taking care of the child.”

“Child? Are you pregnant?” Chuxue said in surprise. “No wonder she comes to our home. Fortunately, I was wise enough to take the pill.” Chuxue thought.

“Ruyi!” Venus said and gave Chuxue a warning look. Chuxue curled her lip and didn’t say anything more.

“Don’t be angry. Chuxue has been spoiled since she was a child. If she has any questions, she must make them clear.” Venus said softly to comfort Xuan, “Just sit down. Let’s talk about it slowly.”

Xuan didn’t mean to leave, so she sat down again.

“Pingan, just say something.” Venus poked Jingyan in the arm and said.

Jingyan opened his eyes and said emotionlessly, “I don’t want this child. You can either say I am cold- blooded or irresponsible. In a word, this is my attitude.”

What Jingyan said deadened the atmosphere again. Xuan was very sad and looked at Venus, a straw for her to clutch at. Venus couldn’t bear to see Xuan like that, but she also couldn’t scold Jingyan again and again. Then she turned to look at Kerry and said, “Just say something.”

Kerry put down the newspaper leisurely and said, “It’s up to you. I’m all yours.”

“Dad, you are such a peacemaker.” Chuxue said to tease Kerry.

Kerry winked at Chuxue and they two smiled self-consciously.

After thinking for a while, Venus said, “Since you all don’t declare where you stand, I will do that. After all, this child is related to us by blood. Xuan is also a victim. As she insists on keeping the child, we can’t do a thoughtless thing. Just keep this child. We can afford to raise a child.”

Xuan was exulted and she almost knelt to Venus. “Thank you, Mrs Ye.” Xuan said.

Venus is a kind person. Thinking that Xuan’s pregnant, and Xuan’s mother’s not with her, Venus said, “You need someone to take care of you now. So why don’t you live here…”

“Mom,” Jingyan interrupted Venus immediately and said, “She can’t live here.”

“Xuan’s mother is not with her and she needs someone to take care of her.” Venus said.

“Mom, we have so many residential holdings and she can live anywhere with a nanny. Why you ask her to live with us?” Jingyan said.

After hearing that, Venus was angry. She lost her temper with her son for the first time and said, “It all your fault. It’s not a big deal that you don’t want to be responsible for it, but how can you behave like that?” Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“OK. Just let her live here. I will leave.” Jingyan said. Then he turned and walked to the door of the villa.

Chuxue was surprised by this series of events and she ran after Jingyan, saying, “Brother.”

Venus pointed to the view of Jingyan’s back and asked Kerry, “Is he venting his anger on me?”

“Don’t be angry. I will give him a lesson.” Kerry said.

“Who am I doing this for? If he hadn’t been drunk, I wouldn’t have to make peace here.” Venus shivered out of anger and said.

Seeing Jingyan leave and Venus is angry, Xuan said guiltily, “Mrs Ye, I’d better leave here. I don’t want you to come conflict with Jingyan for the sake of me. I will take a good care of the child.”
