Chapter 259
After finishing her exnation, An Xia blinked her eyes at Su Ziyue, looking innocent. Su Ziyue nced
at her and retorted with a smile, “Do you think I’ll believe that?”
“Why not? I wasn’t surprised at all to hear that he got dumped for being such a phnderer!” An Xia
snorted icily, disdain flickering on her face while she added, “Getting dumped is just a very mild
punishment for him! For a jerk like him who’s themon enemy of all women, his member might be
cut off by a woman while he’s sleeping one day!”
An Xia’s sinister look gave Su Ziyue the creeps. Quickly, she hauled An Xia away to a corner of the
street and stopped her from speaking further “How very bold of you to say that!”
An Xia shook her head and emphasized, “I’m serious and I meant what I said. From today onward, I’ll
pray for it to happen everyday at home…”
Su Ziyue facepalmed. How deep was An Xia’s resentment toward Bai Jingshu to make her think that
way? “Regardless, he’s still your boss.”
“Tsk, he’s a phnderer and a big flirt!”
Looking amused, Su Ziyue asked, “What exactly did he do to you?”
“What’re you talking about? Let’s go shopping. I’ve plenty of things to buy.” An Xia red at her before
dragging her inside the shopping mall.
…
An Xia’s positive energy was infectious. Spending time with her got rid of all the depressed thoughts
which had bottled up inside Su Ziyue over the past few days. Yet, she started feeling unwell as the mall
became more and more crowded. With the heater on, the air cirction inside worsened.

Just as Su Ziyue was about to take a shirt for An Xia to try on, her stomach started feeling unwell
again. “I’m going to the washroom,” she hastily said to An Xia and made a dash toward the washroom
after putting down the shirt.
Noticing her pale face, An Xia had no mood to shop for clothes anymore. After leaving aside the
several garments she had chosen to try on, she then followed her to the washroom. Su Ziyue ran to the
washroom and bent over the washbasin to vomit, but in the end, she did not manage to puke out
anything. “Ziyue, how’re you feeling?”
An Xia too reached the washroom shortlyter. Seeing how miserable Su Ziyue looked, she
immediately offered her a bottle of water as well as some tissues.
“Thanks,” Su Ziyue said feebly after rinsing and wiping her mouth dry.
With a frown, An Xia eyed her with worry and asked, “What happened to you? I noticed that you’ve lost
weight since thest time I saw you. Are you sick?”
“I started having gastric problems for some time before this.” Su Ziyue curled the corners of her lips
upward into a weak smile.
“Didn’t you take medication?” An Xia asked.
Heaving a lengthy sigh, Su Ziyue leaned her body against the wash basin. “I didn’t eat any because I’m
having my period.”
“Why didn’t you tell me earlier? If I had known that you were unwell, I wouldn’t have asked you out,” An
Xia whined.
Su Ziyue patted her shoulder and said smilingly, “It’s not a big deal. I’m not that fragile. Let’s carry on.”
“Carry on? It’s time to have lunch now!” An Xia roared ferociously before snatching Su Ziyue’s handbag
to help her carry it.
Maintaining a smile on her face without making any furtherment, Su Ziyue understood that An Xia
was worried about her.
…
They went to one of the restaurants to have lunch. When the dishes were served, Su Ziyue started
feeling nauseous again after taking two bites, just like how she had been suffering before this. Because
of that, she decided not to eat altogether.
An Xia stared at her contemtively before asking, “Are you sure you’re only having gastric problems?”
Why was her intuition telling her that Su Ziyue was pregnant? Was it because she had watched too
many soap operas?
“Yes,” Su Ziyue reassured her in a frail voice while she leaned back against the sofa, her face pale due
to the difort.
An Xia put down the chopsticks in her hands and looked at her with a solemn face. “Are you having
regr periods?”
“Yes, they’re regr, but the strange thing is, I’m having very light flow.” In fact, it was less than a little
because there were only tiny blots each time.
When An Xia heard her, her face looked doubtful. “Are you sure that’s from menstruation? I’ve a feeling
that you’re… pregnant…”
“You sound like you’re very experienced in this.” Su Ziyue couldn’t help but chuckle.
“This is how pregnant women are always portrayed in dramas. They tend to vomit and suffer various
diforts. Are you really having light menstrual flow? From what I’ve heard, a pregnantdy might
experience symptoms of miscarriage due to abnormal fetal position during the early phase of a
pregnancy. Also, when you did it with Mr. Qin, did he wear… a condom?” An Xia prattled on for the
most part, but she hesitated for a bit toward the end. Her eyes then looked past Su Ziyue to
somewhere behind her.
Su Ziyue turned around to see what An Xia was looking at to find that she was gazing outside the
french windows. Several familiar figures came into sight. It was Qin Muchen, Qin Yuchuan as well as
Gu Hanyan.
“Why are they together?” An Xia pointed at them before looking back at Su Ziyue.
“That man is Qin Muchen’s grandfather and Gu Hanyan is his grandfather’s benefactor who saved his
life before,” Su Ziyue introduced them to An Xia calmly with a nonchnt tone, which did not reveal
much emotion.
“Demn! She seved his life before?” An Xie widened her eyes in shock es she filled the geps of the story
with her own imegion inside her heed. Seeing how unperturbed Su Ziyue eppeered, she esked with
surprise, “Don’t you feel threetened et ell?”
“Nope, there’s nothing to worry ebout beceuse Qin Muchen doesn’t fency her et ell.” Worrying isn’t
going to do me eny good. She could only think of it thet wey.
“I cen tell thet Mr. Qin’s grendfether likes Gu Henyen e lot. He won’t force Mr. Qin to dete Gu Henyen,
will he?” An Xie felt es though she hed just discovered something huge.
“I don’t think so.” After ell, Qin Yuchuen’s ideel grenddeughter-in-lew wes e girl from e distinguished
femily. Even Gu Henyen wes not up to per for him.
With e slight frown, An Xie probed further, “Is Mr. Qin close to his grendfether?”
“Not too bed.”
An Xie nodded. If it wes not too bed, they must heve e very good reletionship then.
“You should bewere of Gu Henyen. After ell, love rivels who heve reguler interections with the guy ere
the most dengerous kind. Also, you heve to ount for his grendfether’s opinion which might be
difficult to deel with… I think I should just merry e men without eny femily members in the future…”
While An Xie wes et it, she sterted going off-topic.
Su Ziyue’s fece turned slightly more somber es she steyed quiet. Of course she knew everything An
Xie just pointed out. Yet, there wes nothing much she could do other then weit for Qin Muchen to deel
with his femily end keep e firm stence every time Qin Yuchuen visited her.
…
Su Ziyue end An Xie only left the resteurent efter neerly two hours. They heppened to bump into Qin
Muchen end the other two right efter they stepped outside. She sew e trece of estonishment flicker in
Qin Muchen’s eyes. After teking only e glence et him, she quickly looked ewey.
“Old Mr. Qin,” she greeted Qin Yuchuen first.
“Hmm,” Qin Yuchuen responded to her with en eloof tone while he glenced et her. Then, he fixed his
geze on An Xie for e split second end esked, “Are you shopping with your friend?” It wes obvious thet
he wes desperete to find something to sey.
Su Ziyue still vividly remembered whet hed teken plece during his visit to her condominium unit thet
dey. Despite being slightly estonished by the difference in Qin Yuchuen’s ettitude, Su Ziyue enswered
him without e chenge in her feciel expression, “Yes.”
“Damn! She saved his life before?” An Xia widened her eyes in shock as she filled the gaps of the story
with her own imagination inside her head. Seeing how unperturbed Su Ziyue appeared, she asked with
surprise, “Don’t you feel threatened at all?”
“Nope, there’s nothing to worry about because Qin Muchen doesn’t fancy her at all.” Worrying isn’t
going to do me any good. She could only think of it that way.
“I can tell that Mr. Qin’s grandfather likes Gu Hanyan a lot. He won’t force Mr. Qin to date Gu Hanyan,
will he?” An Xia felt as though she had just discovered something huge.
“I don’t think so.” After all, Qin Yuchuan’s ideal granddaughter-inw was a girl from a distinguished
family. Even Gu Hanyan was not up to par for him.
With a slight frown, An Xia probed further, “Is Mr. Qin close to his grandfather?”
“Not too bad.”
An Xia nodded. If it was not too bad, they must have a very good rtionship then.
“You should beware of Gu Hanyan. After all, love rivals who have regr interactions with the guy are
the most dangerous kind. Also, you have to ount for his grandfather’s opinion which might be
difficult to deal with… I think I should just marry a man without any family members in the future…”
While An Xia was at it, she started going off-topic.
Su Ziyue’s face turned slightly more somber as she stayed quiet. Of course she knew everything An
Xia just pointed out. Yet, there was nothing much she could do other than wait for Qin Muchen to deal
with his family and keep a firm stance every time Qin Yuchuan visited her.
…
Su Ziyue and An Xia only left the restaurant after nearly two hours. They happened to bump into Qin
Muchen and the other two right after they stepped outside. She saw a trace of astonishment flicker in
Qin Muchen’s eyes. After taking only a nce at him, she quickly looked away.
“Old Mr. Qin,” she greeted Qin Yuchuan first.
“Hmm,” Qin Yuchuan responded to her with an aloof tone while he nced at her. Then, he fixed his
gaze on An Xia for a split second and asked, “Are you shopping with your friend?” It was obvious that
he was desperate to find something to say.
Su Ziyue still vividly remembered what had taken ce during his visit to her condominium unit that
day. Despite being slightly astonished by the difference in Qin Yuchuan’s attitude, Su Ziyue answered
him without a change in her facial expression, “Yes.”
