Chapter 360 - You Sure Are (1/2)

Seeing the triumphant smile on Xu Mey's face, Jie knew what was going on in her mind. While Xu Mey's mind was actually not in alignment with Jie. She was lost in the words Ru told her; she indeed expected a better reason from her mother. Her heart wanted to hear something acceptable... Something a little more believable but all she got was a petty excuse.

"Should I give you a moment with them?" Hearing Jie's voice, Xu Mey shook her head in negation.

"Why do you want to leave? You are not a stranger but my husband. And I want you to stay right here." She gave him a reassuring smile. With much reluctance, she hopped down from Jie's lap and stood back up.

As she pushed the door open, both Xu Cheng and Xin Qian turned to look at her.

"Meymey, what are you doing here?" Xu Cheng paced up to her side with a concerned look. "How was the checkup? Is everything alright?"

Xu Mey extended her hand towards Jie and he passed her the report file. Xu Mey immediately showed her father the ultrasound scans. "Look. That's the fetus. A very healthy one with a strong heartbeat just like his mother."

"Ahem!" Hearing Jie's cough from behind Xu Mey made a face.

"And just like his dad as well." She had to add reluctantly. "Anyways, everything is absolutely fine."

Xu Cheng kept looking at the photo in hand with fascination in his eyes which slowly turned into tears that flowed down his face slowly. He never got a chance to be present at any of doctor's checkups during the time Xin Qian was pregnant. Xin Qian stopped him from even interfering in her life. Today, it felt like all his previous grievance was gone.

"Xu Mey, are you pregnant?" Xin Qian's voice broke a sweet moment between father and daughter.

Xu Mey was about to snap at her when Xu Cheng held her hand and shook his head saying, "It's not worth it." Xu Mey passed him an assuring smile since even she knew that this woman didn't worth her anger at all. Anger was also a feeling and it was something she didn't want to have for this woman anymore.

Both her parents wronged at different levels but they had a huge difference. No matter what, her father stayed with her while this woman ran at the first junction of their life.
