Even though there was a voice in her heart telling her that everything was real and that the oasis she saw was real and belonged to her, she still felt so inferior that she didn't dare to reach out and touch it.
Because she was afraid that if she stretched out her hand, everything would disappear.
She didn't know how long she had been squatting in the corner. In the end, her legs were almost numb. Bai Lu reached out to support herself against the wall and slowly stood up.
She held the wall with one hand and stood in the dark room for a few minutes. Then she slowly turned around and opened the door.
However, the moment he pulled open the door, his entire body froze.
It was only after he came to his senses that he wanted to close the door like a coward.
However, the man who had been waiting outside for a long time obviously wouldn't let her have her way. He reached out his long arm and pressed against the door.
"As long as I'm here, are you going to hide behind this door forever?"
Liang Feifan looked at her pale face and her dry and pale lips. He narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Is it so hard for you to accept that you know that the man is me?"
Before this, she didn't know anything about the man who had taken her virginity, but she still had the courage to keep the child in her stomach. But now … he just told her that the man was him, but she looked like she couldn't wait to avoid him.
Liang Feifan's face instantly turned cold. He increased the strength of his hand and pushed open the door of the study. Bai Lu couldn't help but stagger backward and almost fall. However, a large hand came across her waist and caught her in time.
Before she could resist or struggle, she was already pressed against the wall. She could feel the familiar masculine scent in her soul. His deep voice was cold, and it showed that he wasn't in a good mood.
"You only have the courage to bear the consequences of that, but you don't have the courage to face me?"
Bai Lu's heart trembled, but she still didn't dare to raise her head. Liang Feifan reached out and held her chin, forcing her to look up. "You don't dare to look at me? Hmm? "
"…"
She moved her lips, but she realized that she really didn't have the courage to speak. Because she didn't know what to say.
Her silence made Liang Feifan even more anxious. His original plan to communicate with her was thrown to the back of his mind as he unconsciously narrowed his eyes. Her gaze was still constantly dodging his gaze, but he just did not loosen his grip on her chin. His strength did not decrease but instead increased, and his tone became even colder, "Is there nothing you want to say to me?"
Panic had long been replaced by helplessness. Bai Lu knew that he couldn't run away, and he couldn't hide it.
Actually, she knew that her evasive actions made her seem very spineless and pretentious.
What's more, to put it bluntly, that matter was just a coincidence. No one was at fault.
Liang Feifan had also just found out. Why was she hiding from him?
"… Sorry." She took a deep breath and finally opened her mouth slowly. Her voice was especially hoarse. "… I didn't do it on purpose. I just … found it hard to accept. I never thought that two months ago, we had already … I really don't know how to face you. I was actually afraid that you would be angry …"
"That's not what I want to hear!"
Liang Feifan interrupted her. He didn't seem to have the patience to wait for her to jump out and tell him. This woman was sometimes like a clam that was tightly shut. It would take a lot of time for him to pry open her mouth. Since that was the case, he might as well get straight to the point.
He reached out and took out a piece of paper from his shirt pocket. He stuffed it directly into Bai Lu's hands. "When do you plan to tell me about this matter?"
Bai Lu's eyes blurred. With the help of the light from the long corridor, she could easily see what was written on the paper in her hand.
Her already pale face instantly lost all color. She pursed her lips and started to tremble. "… This is my … my …"
"Bai Lu, ten weeks pregnant." Liang Feifan's slender fingers flicked the paper in her hand. The corners of his mouth curved into a half-smile. "Huh? If I don't tell you, are you going to keep it from me forever? "
"You … How did you know?"
This question sounded like an idiot. How did he know? Since he already knew about what had happened two months ago, how hard was it for him to find out about her pregnancy?
However, Bai Lu still felt a sense of trepidation.
Would he think that she was a woman who had deliberately approached him? Would he think that she had premeditated the pregnancy? Now that he was so aggressive, did it mean that … the so-called next step was to drag her to an abortion?
Bai Lu's thoughts were as negative as they could get.
She knew that she was very negative sometimes.
However, after experiencing her ex-boyfriend's betrayal and her former best friend's plot, other than her confidence in her work, she was already intimidated by the feelings between people.
She instinctively covered her lower abdomen and looked at him cautiously. She anxiously explained, "… Liang Feifan, I … I didn't mean to hide it from me. Before this, I really didn't know … didn't know that it was you. I really wanted to keep this child … I really thought about it for a long time. No matter what, the child is innocent. I won't abort it. If you don't want to acknowledge this child, don't worry. I won't disturb you, and the child won't look for you in the future — "
"What are you talking about?" Liang Feifan frowned and interrupted her.
What did this woman think he was? Abortion?
It didn't matter how negative her thoughts were, but did she think that he, Liang Feifan, was the kind of person who would casually joke about other people's lives?
His grip on her wrist hurt. Bai Lu struggled, but he tightened his grip. She had no choice but to say, "I said I want this child! If you don't want it, I — "
"What do you plan to do?"
"… I'll raise it alone."
"With your current job and income, do you plan to raise my child?" He raised his eyebrows and looked proud. He didn't look frivolous at all.
Liang Feifan had always had this kind of boldness. He was superior to others, and he was insufferably arrogant. He was a king, so his child …
Ha, it would indeed be different.
Bai Lu bit her lip and lowered her eyes. She was so upset that she couldn't speak anymore.
"You want this child, don't you?" Liang Feifan suddenly spoke again. His voice was low, and he restrained his coldness from earlier. There was a hint of temptation in his voice. "It's already two months pregnant. It's too cruel to say that it's an abortion. It's not impossible for you to keep this child."
Bai Lu suddenly looked up. Her eyes were bright. "… Really?"
Their Family Liang had an unshakeable status in City A, and their interpersonal relationships were very complicated. How could Bai Lu not know what the child in her belly represented?
But it was because of this that she was afraid.
"Do you really think I'm a cold-blooded animal? This child is also my child." Liang Feifan looked at her expectant face, and the haze in his heart dissipated. There was a deep light in his dark eyes. He said calmly, "Anyway, a person will eventually get married and have children. I know you didn't deliberately plot to be pregnant with my child, so I don't mind you giving birth to this child."
He knew this woman's personality very well.
If he was too domineering, she wouldn't be willing. If he gave in too much, she would hesitate. Liang Feifan knew very well that the best way to deal with someone like her who couldn't even be sure of herself was to loosen the reins only to grasp them better.
If she felt grateful, she would definitely not think too much about those trivial matters and would wholeheartedly "cooperate" with him.
Sure enough, the moment he finished speaking, Bai Lu grabbed Liang Feifan's wrist excitedly. "… Really? Was that true? You … You really think I can give birth to this child? "
"Yes." Liang Feifan's tone softened subconsciously. His tall body and handsome face seemed to give people an inexplicable sense of security in the dim environment. Bai Lu only heard his low voice. "But you have to listen to me obediently in the future. Trust me, I won't hurt you."
He wouldn't hurt her …
She knew that he was a very good person. She had always known.
"As long as this child is fine, I'll listen to you. As long as I give birth to this child, I won't cause any trouble for Family Liang. "
"Since it's Liang Feifan's child, then it's Family Liang's child. Do you think my elders don't know that you're pregnant with my child?"
Bai Lu was stunned and suddenly panicked again. "… You mean … You mean your parents already know?"
There was no need to hide such things from her. Liang Feifan didn't mince his words. "My grandfather already knows."
What … His grandfather already knows?
Bai Lu's mind raced. Regarding Liang Feifan's grandfather … When she was in university, she heard from Liang Jingxiao that their grandfather, Liang Wu-ming, was a very impressive person. However, because he was a soldier, he was very strict with the people around him.
But now, she was pregnant out of wedlock. Wasn't her behavior ridiculous for a disciplined soldier?
That old man wouldn't accept her at all, would he?
"… Then what should we do now?" She had no idea what to do and didn't know what to do next.
Liang Feifan held her hand. His deep eyes landed on her flustered little face until her face was a little hot. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you nervous?"
