However, his offers did not entice Bu Xianxian at all. Although she had been dating Shi Shaochuan for quite some time now, she had only done it for the sake of money. She did not in the least bit love him.
How could she possibly marry him and give birth to his child? Wouldn't that mean that she would be tied down for the rest of his life?
Jin Qingyan was the only person she was willing to be tied down to. Others can forget about it!
Bu Xianxian was not entirely brainless, and she had also figured out that Shi Shaochuan would definitely keep a close eye on her if she were to tell him straight that she was planning to get an abortion. If that were to happen, she would lose her freedom too. Hence, she decided to comply for now.
However, Shi Shaochuan had also thought of the things she had figured out.
He was well aware of what she was thinking.
Shi Shaochuan said coaxingly in a tender voice, \”Xianxian, don't worry, I'll definitely take responsibility. I'm different from those irresponsible men. Since I promised to marry you, I'll definitely do so and give you and our child a complete family.\”
\”What if it's a girl?\”
\”We'll keep her too.\” However, he probably wouldn't marry her if it were to be a girl.
Bu Xianxian was filled with displeasure, for she had dreaded getting pregnant the most.
She wanted to abort it secretly behind his back before telling him.
She was afraid that by then…
\”Xianxian, if you abort the child behind my back, don't blame me for being nasty to you.\”
\”What do you mean?\”
\”I mean exactly what I said. Don't act rashly.\”
Bu Xianxian snapped, \”Since you want a child so dearly, why didn't you make your former wives give birth to more children for you? I really can't figure out why you didn't get intimate with An Xiaoning at all throughout the two years of your marriage with her. If you had made her give birth to your children…\” Jin Qingyan wouldn't have wanted to marry her! she thought to herself.
She dared not voice it out loud.
\”What if I had made her give birth to my children?\”
\”Nothing, I just can't understand why.\”
\”Why should I have made her give birth to my children? Is she fit to be the mother of my child? I'll never get intimate with her even if she were the last woman on earth.\”
Finding that he had great taste in women, she asked, \”Does that mean you think that I deserve to give birth to your child more than she does?\”
Somehow, she felt a sudden sense of superiority.
\”Of course, you're far better than she is.\”
If only Jin Qingyan thought the same, Bu Xianxian thought to herself.
Before Shi Shaochuan left, he assigned two bodyguards to keep close tabs on Bu Xianxian all day, regardless of where she goes. Although Bu Xianxian appeared to be enjoying freedom on the surface, she was, in fact, living no different from a prisoner.
It was not that easy for her to get an abortion.
Since she didn't have any friends, she decided to go home to inform her parents about her pregnancy and, at the same time, seek their opinion.
After hearing her words, Mr. and Mrs. Bu were shocked out of their senses.
\”Are you really pregnant?\”
Bu Xianxian answered with a nod, \”Yes.\”
\”What do you plan to do about it, then?\”
\”Mother, I don't want to keep the baby, but that person insists that I give birth to it.\”
\”Why don't you want it?\” Mrs. Bu asked again.
\”I don't love him anyway. I'm only dating him for the sake of money. I don't plan to spend the rest of my life with him.\”
Mrs. Bu said, \”Xianxian, your father and I didn't agree to let you go under the knife just so you could exchange your looks for money. We still hope that you'll be able to change your views and settle down with a man who treats you well. How could you get together with a man purely for the sake of money?\”
\”I just don't want the baby. He's twice-divorced and has a daughter from his second marriage. His parents are dead. That's why he wants to keep this child. He's wealthy.\”
