When Yong Liwei noticed it, he shrugged at her. "Don't look at me. I'm innocent."

It only made her think that Tian Ruyi must have hated him so much.

"Anyway, I can't stay here tonight. I have some business to attend," said Yong Liwei.

"Again?"

"I'll make it up to you tomorrow. I'll free my schedule, I promise." He reached out and stroked her cheek with his thumb.

She inwardly sighed. She didn't want to be clingy to him so she held back her desires to keep him back with her. 

"I'll accompany you," he informed her.

Lu Mengjie nodded again before finally replying, "take care on your way back."

After she watched him leave, she returned to her room and sat on the side of her bed, gently placing her hand on her baby bump. She closed her eyes and calmed her mind with the quietness in the room.

She would be lying to herself if she said that she hasn't been thinking of Si Hongqi lately. He was the last person she was with. She was sure that the car waiting for her belonged to him. The only question was… what happened? Why was she outside the car? Why was she walking on the side of the road, alone?

If she wanted to trigger those memories, she needed to meet the person who could help her and that was none other than Si Hongqi.

The only problem was… she didn't have time to look for him right now. Not with how things were around her.

She fell on the bed and heaved out a weary sigh. Her mind was tired of thinking of possibilities that happened that day. 

She gently stroked her belly as she muttered to herself, "I'm sorry for worrying you, peanut. Mommy will stop thinking of heavy thoughts."

She has been craving peanuts lately which was why she decided to give the child in her womb that nickname. Lu Mengjie closed her eyes, wanting to drift off to sleep.

…

The next day…

Early that morning, Yong Liwei visited and was the one who prepared food for the girls and after joining them for breakfast, he took Lu Mengjie to the hospital for her check-up. As usual, whenever she left the house, she would never forget to wear the same disguise she had. Blond wig and non-graded glasses.

"So far, the baby looked healthy. See this here? This shows that the baby you are carrying is a boy," the doctor said while pointing at the monitor while slowly moving the transducer on her baby bump.

A boy…

Lu Mengjie's eyes sparkled in delight. On the other hand, Yong Liwei's has hardly an expression on his face. No one could tell what he was thinking. His eyes were locked on the monitor ever since the doctor showed them the baby inside the pregnant woman.

She turned to him with a wide smile, "I guess I'll be naming our child."

He finally tore his gaze from the monitor just to look at her, this time with a small smile on his lips. "Yong Xiumin, it is a good name for our son."

Our son… Those words didn't seem strange at all. She smiled inwardly at the thought of how their child would look like.

After the doctor cleaned her belly, Lu Mengjie pulled down her shirt and slowly sat up with the help of Yong Liwei's support.

They stayed for a few minutes in the clinic, listening to the doctor's advice, and by the time they were done, it was almost lunchtime. The couple drove to a restaurant and ordered their food. While waiting, Lu Mengjie's phone rang.

She took out her phone to check who was calling. To her surprise, it was 'Bai Jingye' who appeared on the screen.

"Excuse me," she said before answering the call. "Hello?"

"Where are you?" His smooth, deep voice was heard on the other line.

"I'm outside," she replied.

"With Xiao Ruyi?"

"No. With my boyfriend."

After hearing her response, the line on the other side became quiet for a few seconds.

A sigh was heard next and was followed by a question, "what time will you be home?"

The woman turned to the man who was in front of her. She covered the mouthpiece and asked, "we won't be going anywhere after this, right?"

Yong Liwei blinked a few times upon hearing her question. They didn't have anything planned but… "I was planning on taking you somewhere."

Her eyes twinkled in delight that the side of her lips ended up being raised because of his words. "I'm not sure what time I would be back but I think it will be after dinner."

Once again, the other side became quiet.

"I'll see you later then?" Lu Mengjie continued.

"... Alright." It was as if Bai Jingye had no choice but to forcefully say that.

After the call ended, Lu Mengjie quickly asked her boyfriend, "where are you taking me?"

"I would have taken you to the amusement park if you weren't pregnant but what do you say in visiting art museums?"

She grinned at him, "why not both? We can still visit some non-thrilling rides in the amusement park. Aside from that, I love all kinds of arts, especially you."

He raised a brow in amusement. "Then I guess I have to thank my parents for making such a marvelous art."

Speaking of his parents, she suddenly remembered something… it was the night when he left just to check on his mother that was brought to the hospital. "Oh yeah… if you don't mind me asking, about your mother…" she trailed off.

She didn't have to continue with her question since Yong Liwei already knew what she was talking about. "My mother got into an accident-no, not an accident. It was an attempted murder," he replied. "It was a miracle that she survived."

An attempted murder…

"Could it be that… the people behind your mother's accident were the same people behind mine?"

He became quiet, somehow confirming her question with his silence. There was something else but he kept his mouth shut about it and instead, he redirected the topic, "let's not talk about this right now. You heard what the doctor said, avoid stressing yourself out since it will affect our son."

A small pout appeared on her lips. "Lang Lang's holding strong in me you know."

He paused and instead, he focused on two words, "Lang Lang?"
