Chapter 403: Pregnancy

Yue Wanqing looked at Xiao Zhou. She did not look ill and also did not take it to heart. She was cooking something in the kitchen, so she walked into the kitchen.

Xiao Zhou came before the doors of the wine brewing room. She appeared to be in a dilemma, and she shut her eyes at the last moment, then she stretched out her hand to open the door to the wine brewing room.

Ning Qing came to Jian Han’s condominium unit, and pressed the doorbell.

After a long while, the door opened up.

Jian Han was dressed in a pyjamas suited to wear at home. She had a white cotton t shirt with blue stripes, matched together with loose blue long pants on the bottom. She did not tie her hair up, and her hair was messily let down over her shoulders.

“Older Sister Jian, what were you doing inside the house? Why did you only open the door now? Older Sister Jian, your face is so pale, are you really alright?” Ning Qing asked worriedly as she stretched her hand out to touch Jian Han’s forehead.

“I am fine.” Jian Han shook her head, and she stretched out her hand to hold onto Ning Qing’s small hand. “I was sleeping just now, so I didn’t hear the sound of the doorbell.”

“Sleeping? It is already noon now. Older Sister Jian, why are you still sleeping? Older Sister Jian is turning into a lazy piglet.” Ning Qing winked her eyes playfully while she spoke.

There was a weak smile on Jian Han’s pale face. She closed the door and brought Ning Qing over into the living room.

Ning Qing placed the thermos on the dining table. She opened the lid of the container. There was the fragrance of the soup made with corn brewed together with ribs. “Older Sister Jian, this is the bento that my mother lovingly prepared for you to eat. Older Sister Jian, eat it while it’s still hot.”

“Ning Qing, help me thank Aunty.” Jian Han thanked her, but she had a whiff of the soup. She lifted her eyebrows up. She put her small hand on her chest and held it in. It was only then that she controlled her urge to vomit.

“Older Sister Jian, what is wrong with you?”

Jian Han shook her head, “It’s nothing. Ning Qing. Have a seat. I will go wash up and brush my teeth.”

Jian Han went towards the washroom.

Ning Qing looked at her back. She had not seen Jian Han for just a few days, but Older Sister Jian had already slimmed down. The woman’s figure in the pyjamas was supple and frail, and it made anyone looking at her feel bad.

Ning Qing put the cap back on the thermos. She walked into the kitchen and opened the fridge. There were some vegetables and some meat inside the fridge, but most of it was from a long time ago, and the vegetables were wilted and could not be eaten anymore.

Ning Qing then went to search for rice. She wanted to make some rice for Older Sister Jian. She found the rice bag, but there was no more rice inside.

Ning Qing was disappointed. What has Older Sister Jian had to eat?

She thought for a moment. Ning Qing took her phone out of her pocket and dialled a number.

“Hello, Older Brother Dayuan….”

Jian Han went into the washroom. She closed the door, and Ning Qing was not by her side. She could not control the queasiness inside her anymore. She walked briskly towards the toilet bowl,and vomited.

She did not eat anything, and all she vomited was bitter bile water.

After she vomited, her entire being was just like a deflated balloon as she laid down on the floor. She had used all of her energy when she went to welcome Ning Qing. Her entire body did not feel too good.

There was a blankness in her eyes. She did not know what she was thinking about, and after a long while, she stretched her hand out slowly to touch her flat abdomen. Here… His child was here.

She fainted in the bar that day. Tang Fan took her to the hospital, and it was then that she confirmed her pregnancy.

Jian Han held onto the wall as she stood up. She stood before the sink. She looked at the woman who was pale as a piece of paper. Was this even still her? She was extremely frail.

No wonder he was bored playing with her.

She was no longer young anymore. 32 years old, compared to those 20 year old girls who were tender, beautiful, and young that she saw inside the bar. She was really old.

Maybe these few years, he was unable to forget her, and maybe it was really as he said. He had not slept with her then, and he felt that it was a regret.

After sleeping with her, he realized it was just like this.

Jian curled the corners of her lips up. She smiled pathetically. She calmly took her toothbrush out and squeezed some toothpaste. She needed to wake up and lead her life well.

Because she had a child now.

Although the Heavens had given her too many obstacles, she was still very thankful. When she had nothing at all, Heavens gifted her a little life.

Her child.

Their child.

Jian Han brushed her teeth and washed her face. She took out a brush to tidy her hair. She confirmed that the woman in the mirror was clean and fresh before she opened the door.

She wanted to go out, but she heard Ning Qing making a call in the kitchen.

“Older Brother Dayuan, come over quickly to have a look at Older Sister Jian… Older Sister Jian’s house does not have any rice anymore. Not only that, but the vegetables in Older Sister Jian’s fridge are all wilted… Older Sister Jian locked herself at home and did not go out for five or six days. I also do not know what Older Sister Jian has eaten. Older Sister Jian has lost so much weight. Her face is pale as a piece of paper. Come over quickly. Older Sister Jian needs you to take care of her… Hello? Older Brother Da Yuan? Hello, Zhou Dayuan!?”

Jian Han could tell that Zhou Dayuan on the other end had hung up.

She lowered her gaze and looked at her own abdomen. She thought to herself, dear baby, it is alright if your father does not want you. It’s enough as long as you have Mama… I am very sorry. Daddy would not find out about your existence… Even if he finds out, he probably would also not believe that you are his…

Jian Han’s heart felt both cold and hilarious. The sink behind her, that day he needed to go on a business trip, and started to torture her in the morning, the two of them did not even leave the house. He hugged her at night and could not control himself. When she showered, he half pushed and carried her inside…

At that time, they were so happy.

Jian Han kept her feelings to herself and walked out the door. With a smile, she said, “Ning Qing, why are you angry? Who are you calling?”

Ning Qing quickly put her phone into her pocket. She did not dare to bring up anything that would make Jian Han upset and could only lie, “Oh, it’s Shao Ming.”

“Young Master Lu? Ning Qing, Young Master Lu would also make you angry?”

Upon bringing Young Master Lu up, there was a sweet smile on Ning Qing’s face. “He, likes to make me angry all the time, but in normal circumstances, I do not dare to get angry. He just makes me anxious… If I really get angry, he would come to coax me again…”

Ning Qing realized that had said too much. How could she be so evil? Older Sister Jian was still in the middle of being upset.

She spat her pink tongue out and looked at Jian Han.

She only saw Jian Han’s almond shaped eyes sparkling brightly in her direction, and she looked very interested.

Ning Qing felt her heart ache extremely badly, because in Older Sister Jian’s eyes, there was hope and jealousy that she could not hide at all.

Older Sister Jian craved bliss like that so badly.

“Older Sister Jian…”

Jian Han laughed lightly. “Ning Qing, I am fine. Listening to you and Young Master Lu’s story, I feel very happy, and I am very happy for you… Ning Qing, I have already bought my plane tickets to return to Singapore, both you and Young Master Lu have to continue living well.”

Ning Qing was taken aback. “Older Sister Jian, you want to leave?”

“Yeah.” Jian Han nodded her head. “I really want to leave this time. After I leave, I will probably not come back again. Ning Qing, we will meet again if there’s fate.”

The tip of Ning Qing’s nose became sour. She went forward to hold onto Jian Han’s elbow and nudged it cutely. “Older Sister Jian, don’t be like this. Why did you suddenly decide to return to Singapore? I am not even mentally prepared for it at all. No way, no matter what, Older Sister Jian also needs to wait for me to finish competing in the red wine competition before you leave. I have the confidence. I will definitely get the first position in the competition.”

Ning Qing was acting cute, and Jian Han was unable to resist. She had a smile on her face in the end as she said, “Okay, Ning Qing, then I will wait for the red wine competition to be over before I leave. You definitely need to be the champion. If not, you will be letting me down.”

“Sure, Older Sister Jian, I definitely will.”

The day of the red wine competition

Ning Qing, Xiao Zhou and a few staff members sat in the luxurious business utility vehicle, and everyone was chatting. “Director Ning, this is your first battle after formally entering the world of red wine. The meaning behind this is special. We all have predicted that you would definitely be able to withstand the odds and be able to take over the headlines.

“That’s right, Director Ning. Others do not know anything about the wine that you have brewed. We still do not know. That is almost the brew among the angels on earth. From today onwards, our Yi Fan Red wine will create a new breakthrough for itself.”

Ning Qing gurgled in laughter. She was displeased as she said, “You all have such sweet mouths. Sure, after I take the championship and return, we will have a celebratory party. Everything would be on me.”

“Sure, Director Ning! It’s on the record.” Everyone broke out into laughter.

At this moment, Ning Qing turned her gaze sideways to look at Xiao Zhou. Xiao Zhou was looking outside the window, and it was obvious that she was not paying attention. If this were a normal day, she would be the first person to cheer out loud.

“Xiao Zhou.” Ning Qing held Xiao Zhou’s hand, smiled, and asked, “What beautiful scenery is outside the window? What are you so attracted to?”

Xiao Zhou turned her head around. She avoided Ning Qing’s bright, clear eyes and concealed it as she said, “Oh, I am only thinking, where are we going to hold the celebratory banquet tonight?”

“Xiao Zhou, it is still too early for you to be pondering such a concern. Who knows if I will meet with an incident in the red wine competition and fail? If I fail in this competition, our Yi Fan red wine cannot shoot to fame, and I am afraid that Yi Fan would have to take a longer route to success. Xiao Zhou, what do you think?”

Ning Qing specified the importance of the competition, and she looked firmly at Xiao Zhou.

Xiao Zhou guiltily lowered her gaze. She said, “Haha, Ning Qing, I believe you. You will definitely be able to succeed.”

Ning Qing did not say anything when she heard her words. She withdrew her hand that was holding onto Xiao Zhou’s hand and sighed deeply inside her heart.

The large hall of the competition was illuminated with sparkling lights. Not only did were most famous journalists and media outlets gathered together, but those with money, power, and status were all invited. It was a glamorous and luxurious event.

Everyone was chatting in hushed tones among the classical music that was playing in the hall. They were chatting happily. At this moment, the doors of the main hall was opened up by two attendants, and a figure walked in.

Lu Shaoming arrived.

The man was dressed in a handmade black suit. It accentuated his tall and handsome figure. He had a pair of strong eyebrows and a handsome face just like it was carved by Heaven. He had a cold and elegant aura that matched this kind of upscale event. The moment he made his entrance, he turned into the focus of everyone present at hand.

But this was not all; there was still someone behind him.

It was a tiny little person.

Lu Qinwen was nine months old today. He wore a white shirt and had a ribbon on his collar. He had a pair of light blue jeans. The tiny guy’s features had lengthened. His skin was perfect like a small snowball. He was powdery pink — exquisite like a piece of painting.

He was already very good at walking steadily. It was probably because of his surroundings. He walked behind Daddy and was stylish and steady, just like a tiny miniature version of a dominating president that was walking down the catwalk.

“Wow…” The gazes of everyone present at hand were all attracted to this tiny figure. Everyone was speaking in hushed tones. “Is this Young Master Lu’s son? His genes are way too strong; he is so cute!”

At this moment, a few formally dressed foreigners welcomed him. They held out their hands heartily and shook his hand. “Mr Lu, long time no see. It’s nice to see you here.”

Lu Shaoming placed one of his hands in his pockets. He shook their hands, He had an British accent, and his voice was charming and mesmerizing as he said, “Nice to see you too.”
