Chapter 344 - Man Up (1/2)

Even after listening to Xu Mey, a certain green-eyed individual didn't react. Xu Mey kept gazing at Ru's tall frame looking over the blinking lights of the skyscrapers in the distance.

"Sensei, why are you so quiet?" Xu Mey chose to break the thick silence since she wasn't comfortable with it anymore.

"Did you talk to your father?" asked Ru, not looking back at her.

"No." Xu Mey bit out softly.

"Why?" Xu Mey lifted her eyes to see Ru's green orbs searching for something in her eyes.

"I don't know how to talk to him. I know for a fact that dad doesn't know anything about having a son." Xu Mey spoke in a confident manner.

"And how are you so sure?"

"Sensei, if he knew he had a son... He would never have let that woman take him away."

Xu Mey was confident about this. She had heard from Fan Bingbing that her father broke down back then because that woman even threw their daughter away and left him.

Ru nodded her head giving her tacit agreement. She finally sighed and took a seat beside Xu Mey.

"Do you mind if I take your pulse?" Ru's sudden question surprised Xu Mey but she still shook her head and stretched her wrist towards her. Placing her slightly calloused fingers on Xu Mey's delicate wrists, Ru closed her eyes briefly. When she let her go, Xu Mey could see a ghost of a smile on Ru's face.

"What's wrong?" Xu Mey asked anxiously.

Ru shook her head and said, "Nothing is wrong as of yet. But try not to get agitated. It's not good for your health or the one inside of you."

"So... What about that son? I mean your twin brother."

Xu Mey held Ru's wrist and dragged her through the corridors before pointing Xiamu who was seated on a chair with his head rested on the wall behind him.

"There he is..." Xu Mey drawled her words as she pointed at Xiamu.

"Are you sure?"

"I might not be before but after I heard him calling me sis, I'm sure."

As if feeling someone's gaze on himself, Xiamu opened his eyes and turned his face towards Xu Mey. She was so alarmed that she even pulled Ru with herself and hid behind a wall.

"Why are we hiding?" Ru asked with slight amusement.
