Chapter 1330 Yun Rui Juanchen: I have a child

"What if...what if he really doesn't want this child?" Yang Xiaotang murmured to himself, with fear in his voice.

It's not that she hasn't thought about aborting the child and starting her life over, but when she thinks that this little life is the fruit of her and Qi Ruixiang, and the testimony of her first true love, she can't bear to do it.

Unable to fall asleep after tossing and turning, Yang Xiaotang sat up and walked to the window. The street below was empty, with only the occasional passing car, its headlights casting two fleeting streaks of light in the night before quickly disappearing into the darkness.

She thought of the days she had spent with Qi Ruixiang, the warmth he felt when he held her, and the tenderness he occasionally showed, and suddenly a strong sense of resentment welled up in her heart.

Why could Gu Yunxi easily get his love, while she gave everything but only got his suspicion and hesitation?

The next morning, Yang Xiaotang was awakened by a knock on the door. She rubbed her swollen eyes and opened the door to see Yan Wanqing standing at the door with breakfast in hand. A gentle smile appeared on her face. "Are you awake? Come wash up and eat. I made some millet porridge."

Yang Xiaotang nodded and walked into the bathroom. The woman in the mirror looked pale, her eyes red and swollen, the fatigue beneath them unconcealed. She turned on the faucet and splashed cold water on her face, trying to sober herself up. But the thought of Qi Ruixiang brought back the resentment and uneasiness in her heart.

During the meal, neither of them spoke, only the soft clatter of dishes and chopsticks. Yan Wanqing tried to ask Yang Xiaotang about her opinion several times, but was interrupted by her evasive gaze.

She knew that Yang Xiaotang was not ready yet, so she did not force her. She just silently picked up some food for her and asked her to eat more.

Qi Ruixiang, on the other hand, did not go home all night. He drove aimlessly around the city until dawn, when he stopped in the parking lot downstairs of his company.

He leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and replayed in his mind the look on Yang Xiaotang's face when she said "I'm pregnant", and her aggrieved words "You are my first man".

It's not that he doesn't want this child, it's just too sudden.

He and Gu Yunxi had been together for so long, and she hadn't taken any precautions and still hadn't gotten pregnant. He even thought there might be something wrong with him.

But when he was with Yang Xiaotang, he had taken precautions every time, but she still got pregnant unexpectedly. This sudden surprise made him feel a little overwhelmed.

More importantly, his feelings for Yang Xiaotang are too complicated.

He admitted that he was attracted to her, liked her initiative, liked her stubbornness, and even when he was making love with her, he would temporarily forget about Gu Yunxi.

But he knew in his heart that this liking was more of desire and habit than love.

He couldn't give Yang Xiaotang the love she wanted, and he wasn't sure if he could be a good father...

But he cannot be irresponsible either.

Yang Xiaotang gave him her first time and now she was pregnant with his child. He couldn't escape like a coward. Even if there was no love, he would still shoulder the responsibility.

Qi Ruixiang took out his cell phone and called his assistant. His voice was a little tired but very firm: "Help me book a doctor at the best private hospital and find the most authoritative obstetrician and gynecologist. Also, find me an apartment with a good environment in the city center. The sooner the better."

Although the assistant was a little confused, he immediately agreed: "Okay, Mr. Qi, I'll arrange it right away."

After hanging up the phone, Qi Ruixiang leaned back in his chair and breathed a long sigh of relief. He didn't know if his decision was right, nor did he know what the future would hold.

But he knew that he couldn't let Yang Xiaotang face all this alone.

He will give her the best care and provide the child with a stable home. Even without love, he will fulfill his responsibilities as a man and a father.

At around ten o'clock in the morning, Qi Ruixiang finally dialed Yang Xiaotang's number. The phone rang for a long time before it was picked up. Yang Xiaotang's voice was a little hoarse and alert: "Hello?"

"It's me." Qi Ruixiang's voice was low and calm. "I've already booked a hospital. I'll take you for a detailed checkup this afternoon. Also, I've found you an apartment in the city center. The environment is great, perfect for taking care of your baby."

Yang Xiaotang was stunned. She hadn't expected Qi Ruixiang to make such a sudden arrangement. She thought he would hesitate for a long time, or even persuade her to abort the child. "You... what do you mean?"

"I don't mean anything." Qi Ruixiang's voice was emotionless. "Since the child is here, stay. I will take the best care of you and fulfill my responsibilities."

"Responsibility?" Yang Xiaotang's voice suddenly rose, with a barely perceptible tremor. "Qi Ruixiang, is it because of responsibility that you kept this child and treated me well?"

Qi Ruixiang was silent for a moment before he slowly spoke: "Yes. I will be responsible for you and the child and give you a stable life."

These words were like a blunt knife, stabbing Yang Xiaotang's heart.

She knew Qi Ruixiang was telling the truth, but she couldn't help but feel sad. What she wanted was not responsibility, but love, and his sincere care.

Couldn't this man just lie to her?

"I understand." Yang Xiaotang's voice turned cold. "I can go to the hospital by myself this afternoon. No need to trouble you. I won't live in the apartment either. I have my own place to live."

"Xiaotang, don't be angry." Qi Ruixiang's voice was filled with helplessness. "I know you're upset, but this is the best arrangement right now. You're pregnant and need good care. The place you live is too noisy and not suitable for pregnancy."

"None of your business is my business!" Yang Xiaotang said, then hung up the phone. She threw her phone on the sofa, tears streaming down her face like beads from a broken string.

She knew Qi Ruixiang was doing this for her own good and was fulfilling his responsibilities, but she couldn't help but feel sad. She would rather Qi Ruixiang be a little harsh on her and persuade her to abort the child than force himself out of responsibility.

Qi Ruixiang, who was on the other end of the phone, sighed helplessly as he heard the busy tone coming from the receiver. He knew Yang Xiaotang was upset and that he had hurt her feelings.

But all he could do now was to make it up to her and fulfill his responsibilities in this way.

He did not call Yang Xiaotang again, but sent a message to Yan Wanqing, telling her the address and time of the hospital in the afternoon, asking her to help persuade Yang Xiaotang and take her for a check-up.

When Yan Wanqing saw the message, she was watching TV with Yang Xiaotang.

She hesitated for a moment, then showed the message to Yang Xiaotang: "Xiaotang, Qi Ruixiang has already arranged a hospital. I'll go with you this afternoon. No matter what, let's go check on the child first."

Yang Xiaotang couldn't help but shed tears as she read the message. She knew Yan Wanqing was doing this for her own good, but she also knew she couldn't joke about her child's health.

Finally, she nodded and said in a hoarse voice, "Okay, I'll go."

In the afternoon, Yan Wanqing accompanied Yang Xiaotang to the hospital.

Qi Ruixiang had arrived early. He was wearing a black suit and standing in the hospital corridor. He was tall and straight, but he couldn't hide the fatigue in his eyes. When he saw Yang Xiaotang, he wanted to go up and say hello, but was stopped by her cold eyes.

The examination went smoothly and the doctor told them that the baby was healthy and six weeks old.

Holding the medical report, Yang Xiaotang's hands trembled slightly, and she felt both happy and sad. She was happy that the child was healthy, but sad that the child's arrival did not bring her the love she wanted.
