1216 Draw Circles to Put a Curse on You (1/2)

”…”

Tan Bengbeng was taken aback and raised her head to look at him with a blank and astonished look.

”When did I say that I don't like children? When Xiao Liuliu was just born, I was the one who took care of her until she turned one. She always thought that she had two mothers.”

”…”

Seeing how he did not respond, Tan Bengbeng went on to ask, ”How much longer do you need to concoct the antidote for the family head?”

”I don't know, this can't be rushed. Moreover, the longer I take to concoct the antidote, the more time I get to spend alone with you. I'm not in a rush.”

Once he had finished speaking, Qi Yan caught a glimpse of Tan Bengbeng's darkened face and hurriedly changed the subject.

”Since you like children, why did you seem like you were hell-bent on not wanting to get pregnant?”

Qi Yan could still remember the look on her face back then.

Her small face was ghastly pale and there was a deep sense of terror flashing in her eyes.

It was the first time he had seen that look in her eyes since he had picked her up from the sea.

Before that, he had always thought that she feared nothing in this world… Yet, out of everything, she feared that she would get pregnant.

It was simply impossible for him not to be shocked or have a deep impression of this incident!

Upon hearing that he was intentionally delaying and not concocting the antidote, as well as his later questioning, Tan Bengbeng's eyes sank.

She responded out of spite, ”I'm not afraid of getting pregnant, it just depends on whose child it is. You're such a shameless jerk, what if the child turns out to be like you in the future? It'd be better off not being born!”

”…”

So, that was the reason she did not want to get pregnant. It wasn't because she didn't like children, but because she didn't want to have his child?

It wasn't the child that she didn't want, it was him…

Ouch!

Tan Bengbeng did not notice his unusual expression. It wasn't just recently that she had disliked him. In the past, he had heard such words from her too and even took pride in them and intentionally teased her back.

However, he was unusually quiet about it today.

Yet, Tan Bengbeng was worrying about the situation at the Mo Family and wanted to go back soon to help Nian Xiaomu.
