323 Reunion 18 (2/2)

An Xiaoning was rather taken aback by the piece of news but still congratulated her nonetheless. She also promised that she would attend their wedding.

However, Mei Yangyang said that they would not be holding a wedding for now because Long Tianze's parents had yet to learn about their marriage. Thus, they were planning to take things a step at a time.

An Xiaoning carried her luggage and made her way to the hospital ward alone.

Just as she laid down in bed, she received an update from Ma Jianguo.

They managed to hoax the management staff in Gu Dongcheng's estate into spilling the truth. As expected, Chi Rui'er had indeed bribed him with a sum of money to delete the surveillance camera footage.

The staff was brought to the police station, and they have begun searching for Chi Rui'er's whereabouts.

An Xiaoning instructed them to contact her once they'd found Chi Rui'er.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

After having her meal, she went to the rooftop of the hospital alone.

The gentle breeze caressed her face as she sat on the rooftop to gaze at her surroundings. An Xiaoning stared at the wallpaper on her mobile phone, which was a photo of Jin Qingyan.

Her heart was filled with immense sorrow at the sight of him.

From now onwards, she would be living alone with her child, and they'd be dependent on each other.

In order to keep this child, she would have to stay in the hospital throughout the course of her pregnancy and receive a daily shot of tocolytic.

All she wanted was to deliver the child safely and bring him or her into this world.

They would be a family once the child was born. So what if they didn't have a man?

She would still continue to live on well. When she meets Jin Qingyan again in the future, she would greet him like an old friend and tell him, ”Long time no see.”

In reality, she had a lot to say to him.

However, she kept it all to herself and resisted the urge to tell him what was on her mind.

For instance, she wanted to tell him:

”Jin Qingyan, did you know? I'm willing to go through thick and thin with you and brave through all storms together. But, I will never tolerate the idea of being replaced by anyone or anything in this world.”

”Jin Qingyan, did you know? Love is selfish. If you could easily replace me with another woman who looks exactly like me, this is not the kind of love I'm looking for.”

”Jin Qingyan, did you know? I, An Xiaoning, will continue to live on well even without a man.”

Mei Yangyang and Long Tianze were in a room on the twelfth storey of Shui Lou Estate.

Tonight was the night they would consummate their marriage, the very night he had been looking forward to for a long time.

Mei Yangyang came out of the bathroom clad in a bathrobe.

Long Tianze, who had showered before her, was lying in bed and waiting for her with a glass of wine in hand.

”Come here.” He placed the glass onto the table and gestured for her to approach.

Blushing with shyness, Mei Yangyang inched forward slowly in an awkward manner. As she reached the bedside, he picked her up and carried her onto the bed.

”It sure was hard to get intimate with you. You're too chaste and conservative. If only everyone was like you.”

”Aren't you conservative as well? Or have you already had a lot of experience before?” Mei Yangyang retorted.

”Of course not…” Long Tianze let out a cough and looked down at her cherry-red lips before saying softly, ”I'm coming for you.”

Mei Yangyang closed her eyes and froze in nervousness the moment he planted a kiss on her soft and gentle lips.

”Don't be afraid, I'll be gentle,” said Long Tianze as he pulled away and gazed at her from above.
