Everyone failed to notice the unusual behavior of Zuo Yuqing, not even Song Qiao noticed because Chu Munan’s arrival had shifted everyone’s attention to him. Especially when so won saw Chu Munan, they couldn’t help but reveal heart-eyes, their gaze at Chu Munan had transford as if they had seen sothing they adored and wanted to claim for themselves.
Chu Munan’s appearance was no less striking than Lu Jingchen’s, in fact, both n had distinctly handso features. Particularly, Lu Jingchen always exuded a sort of ’keep people at a thousand miles distance’ aura, while Chu Munan’s face always bore a gentle, very mild smile, making him seem more approachable and friendlier.
But only Zuo Yuqing knew, the more approachable this man looked, the more terrifying he was inside. Only those who have dealt with him understood what kind of a person he really was.
Chu Munan didn’t buy the excuse of her just having low blood sugar; his hand was still not letting go of hers, after all she really did look utterly drained.
The man’s thin lips parted slightly, his brows furrowed as he spoke, "Do you want to go to the hospital to check up? I have ti now and... if anything were to happen to you, I’d feel bad not being able to explain it to your grandfather and your little nephew, I just ca from seeing your grandfather, and I’ve told them I ca to see you."
Song Qiao straightened up her body and stepped back from Chu Munan’s embrace. It took her a while to recover, but then she looked at him with wide eyes, "I’m really fine, I just didn’t eat much this morning and I guess I’m a bit malnourished now..."
"Alright, then have a al with now!" Chu Munan spoke firmly without waiting for Song Qiao to finish her sentence.
His tone almost made it impossible for others to refuse, and the man himself emanated an indescribable aura.
As Song Qiao stared at Chu Munan in front of her, she felt montarily bewildered, as if she could see the shadow of soone else on him.
After a long mont, just when everyone thought she wouldn’t agree, they saw her lips curve slightly, then she softly uttered one word, "Okay!"
It was only after Chu Munan and Song Qiao had left that Zuo Yuqing felt the chill on her body slowly dissipate, although her face did not look too good. She kept her gaze slightly lowered, making it difficult for anyone to guess what she was thinking.
On the contrary, Su Yingxue, watching the back of Song Qiao and Chu Munan as they left, was so angry she nearly bit her teeth to shreds, viciously saying, "Getting married to Young Master Lu and still flirting around with another man, shaless."
Zuo Yuqing originally wanted to turn around and find a place to sit and calm down, but hearing Su Yingxue’s words made her stop in her tracks, turning her head to look at the now sowhat ferocious-faced Su Yingxue, and coldly sneered, "That’s still better than you, wanting Young Master Lu who doesn’t even care about you. I guess you wouldn’t even qualify to et this man yourself."
For the first ti in her life, Zuo Yuqing felt such disgust for soone, and her words were filled with sarcasm and were anything but polite.
Hearing Zuo Yuqing’s words, Su Yingxue’s face turned even uglier, almost fierce as she fiercely said, "Zuo Yuqing, say that again..."
Zuo Yuqing wasn’t afraid of her threat at all, coldly curling her lips, "No matter how many tis I say it, it’s the sa."
Su Yingxue imdiately appeared like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, her whole body bristling, and without another word, she lunged at Zuo Yuqing.
...
Chu Munan drove himself, and as Song Qiao sat in the passenger seat looking at the rapidly receding scenery outside, she seed to drift into a trance, while Chu Munan handled the steering wheel skillfully, occasionally glancing at her, his eyes filled with growing concern.
As the car moved out of the junction, it just brushed past a black Maybach leaving the set, after which Chu Munan chose a breakfast place in the city center well-known for its reputation and beautiful environnt.
Half an hour later, sitting in the breakfast place, Chu Munan poured a glass of plain water for Song Qiao, then looked at her fixedly and asked, "Song Qiao, aren’t you planning to tell ? Maybe I can help."
From the mont Song Qiao left the set, she had been spacing out occasionally. Hearing Chu Munan’s words, she ca back to herself, appeared montarily dazed, then looked at him indifferently, "I don’t know what you’re talking about."
However, the man’s expression remained unchanged, still staring at her, and then he lightly stated a fact, "Song Qiao, are you pregnant?"
Song Qiao, just about to take a sip from the glass, froze completely at his words, suddenly looking up at Chu Munan, disbelief in her eyes, it took quite a while before she seed to find her voice, "How... how did you know?"
"My grandfather has been a doctor for decades, and I grew up around him, so I am quite familiar with dical knowledge. Though I haven’t studied dicine formally, I can still recognize common symptoms, and moreover... when I helped you earlier, I took your pulse..."
Song Qiao’s heart suddenly shot up, stuck midway as if unable to rise further or settle down, her lips moved, but she took quite so ti to regain her composure.
She had suspected that she might be pregnant but hadn’t gone to the hospital to confirm it, it was just a vague knowledge.
But she had not expected that Chu Munan would be the first to notice and confirm that she was indeed pregnant.
Clasping the glass tightly, it took her quite a while to recover, she raised her head to look at Chu Munan, but unexpectedly t his eyes, deep as whirlpools, causing her to quickly lower her gaze again, still holding the cup, and after a long while, she spoke, "I always thought... no one would notice..."
That’s what she had thought, hence she planned to leave soday without letting anyone know she was carrying Lu Jingchen’s child.
Chu Munan kept his gaze steady on her, not missing any expressions on her face, the image of Lu Jingchen’s handso face popping into his mind, making him almost wish he could punch the man on the spot.
After Song Qiao finished speaking, he calmly said, "If you want to keep it a secret, not letting anyone know you’re pregnant, I’ll help you!"
