140 Young Love (2/2)

But before he could utter a word, the voice of a cup being kept on the table at once crept the Gazebo into utter silence.

Every head turned to the sound, looking at Old Master Li expressing an expressionless face and inspecting Lei Xinyi with a hawk-like gaze.

Then a smirk took over his face, ”Aren't you a feisty petty thing, hmm? That makes me wonder where all that boldness is coming from?”

Li Yuan sharply turned to glare at Lei Xinyi. He f*cking searched every nook and cranny of the planet to save her from the Vulture's sight and she comes running into it.

He had the urge to smash her head against the closest pillar; she made him that frustrated.

Running a hand over his face, he seized Lei Xinyi back in his arm, who tried to struggle subtly by pushing him away.

”She gets emotional because of her 'condition'.” Li Yuan said looking at his Grandfather who looked amused that he had found a fresh chess piece to eliminate.

Lei Xinyi stopped struggling and looked at him puzzled, ”What condition?”

Li Yuan opened his mouth to tell her they'll talk about it later when Old Master Li scowled and nodded, lazily drawled ”Yes, of course... the pregnancy hormones.”

His words stopped every movement under the Gazebo.

”Who is pregnant?!”

”Pregnancy?!”

”What the hell?!”

All three women shrieked at once. It was an equal shock to all.

Lei Xinyi turned to Li Yuan, trying to free herself from his embrace. She glared incredulously at Li Yuan, who looked laid back as if he hadn't just claimed his supposed 'virgin' fiance pregnant.

”What the hell is going on?!” Lei Xinyi asked without suppressing any anger in her tone.

Li Yuan held Lei Xinyi's hand and pressed it, trying to convey a message which she received, and her eyes widened in disbelief.

Li Yuan smiled at her and cupped her face, ”I know, Darling, we decided to keep it a secret but Baby, they are family.”

Lei Xinyi felt like all the blood rushed to her head. She pushed away from his embrace, stood up, and stared at him skeptically.

The pain in her head was blinded by now, she was feeling dizzy that she swayed and stumbled when she tried to regain her composure.

Li Yuan stood up to hold her, but she took a step back and stumbled two steps backward. The world was spinning around her.

”Xinyi, let's talk about it.” He extended his arm at her to hold her.

Lei Xinyi shook her head and pointed a shaking finger at Li Yuan, ”Ho...How could yo...”

At once her pupil dilated and her complete body gave away and she embraced the floor awaiting the fall.

”Sh*t!”
