Chapter 539 Push him away (1/2)

Morning calmly passes by as Yue Ling and Lu Tian returned to their home in the afternoon to be with Inu.

Due to the weather being warmer than the past few days, the couple finished their lunch and decided to enjoy their afternoon in the back courtyard.

Lu Tian had cleaned up and changed into comfortable clothes. He was now wearing a black long sleeve shirt with gray marled shorts. Every so often, Inu, who was running around would run back to him and give the aloof man a ball to play fetch with him.

Yue Ling sat on an outdoor couch set up on the patio deck as she watched the human and furball. She had also change after washing herself. She was now wearing a simple long sleeve midi dress made of ribbed material in a shade of beige.

As she continue to gaze at Lu Tian, she could see a smile curl on his lip from time to time because of Inu. She couldn't help but sigh inside. She can see why so many women are infatuated by him.

If you were to take away his usual cold and aloof demeanor, everything about him is the perfect image of every woman's dream man. Of course, he is shameless at times, but can be a romantic person too.

He has always been the one to tell her that he is the luckiest man to have met her, but in truth, it is the other way around. She is the luckiest woman to have met him.

However… once he finds out that she cannot get pregnant anymore, will those words still remain?

How will she break the news to him and how will he react?

Will he become disappointed and leave her?

”What's wrong? Are you not feeling well?”

His deep voice trails into her ears and she blinked her eyes. She had been so lost in her thoughts that she didn't even realize when Lu Tian had appeared in front of her.

Not only him, even Inu was poking out his adorable head from behind the man. The little guy's expression was as if saying, 'Favorite human, are you okay? What's wrong?'

Staring at the big and little figures, a soft smile curls on Yue Ling's lip. She lightly shook her head and answers.

”It's nothing and I'm alright.”

Lu Tian walks over to her and sits down on the space next to her. Despite her answer, he was still worried because he knows that she is really good at hiding her feelings.

Stretching a hand towards her, he touch her forehead to make sure she is really fine.

Feeling his slightly cold palm on her head, Yue Ling sighs inside again. She lifts her hand and held his. Lowering it, she place it on her lap without letting go.

She lowers her head to look at his larger hand and gently trace the callouses on his palm.

Although she has not prepared herself to tell him, she knows that she cannot keep this a secret forever. He, more than anyone else has every right to know.

After hearing, if he decides to leave, she will understand. Even if she is crushed by this decision, it is better to part ways while they are not yet married.

Coming to a decision, she inhaled sharply and looks up at him with a smile.

However, the moment their eyes met, she felt a tinge of pain stab her in the heart. A part of her does not want to tell him, but…

”Tian, I have something I need to tell you.”

She stares deeply into his eyes and her smile grew smaller, but it was not completely gone. Now it was a smile that held so many unexplainable feelings.

”I… I cannot have a baby anymore.”

Lu Tian's expression did not once change. He only stares down at her as he thought about her words.

'I cannot have a baby anymore.'

He had overheard the conversation between her and Grandfather Ji, but to hear her personally say it to him, he can hear the pain in her voice. Even he felt like her pain was shot into him.
