I'm Pregnant with the Villain's Child

Chapter 55 – She didn’t dare to move (4)

What was he doing by sitting there and unwaveringly looking at her?!

Did he think she was still a gullible young girl that he had so easily deceived in the past life?

Lin Zhan’s intimate gaze was too conspicuous. It put Ye Qing in an especially uncomfortable position.

Lu Beichuan chuckled. “Mr. Lin, why do you keep looking at Ye Qing?”

Lin Zhan’s eyes sunk. Since that night when Ye Qing had left him for her younger sister’s sake, he had set down his resolve to take Ye Qing away from this vortex. As soon as he entered here, he recognized his girlfriend, who he had been living with day and night.

Lin Zhan lowered his eyes. “It’s nothing.”

Ye Qing slightly smiled and thoughtfully added spare ribs to Lu Beichuan’s bowl. “He’s not looking at me. He’s looking at Zhenzhen.”

Lu Beichuan looked at her with a brooding gaze. His sharp eyes were like a knife that pierced through her heart as he said in a sharp voice, “He’s looking at Zhenzhen?”

Ye Qing’s hand slightly trembled around the chopsticks she was holding. She had been behaving very cautiously in front of Lu Beichuan this entire time and didn’t dare to overstep even once. However, Lu Beichuan’s attitude towards her remained cold. It could even be said that his attitude towards her was at the level of disgust. As soon as she slightly thought of Lu Beichuan’s sweet as honey gaze towards Ye Qing in her past life, she would immediately feel as if her plans had been thwarted.

She forced herself to smile. “Lin Zhan is Zhenzhen’s boyfriend.”

“What?” Mother Lu gaze incredulously went back and forth between Lin Zhan and Ye Zhen.

Lu Shaoren also doubtfully looked at her. “What’s going on?”

Ye Qing was smiling as she explained, “It’s like this. Our parents wouldn’t agree to Zhenzhen and Lin Zhan getting married, so the two of them ran away together. I saw how worried our parents were. Our mom even got sick from worrying too much, so I asked Beichuan to help me find Zhenzhen. Fortunately, Beichuan found her today.”

Ye Qing glanced at Ye Zhen. It was obvious that she was warning her to cooperate.

“So it’s like that...” Lu Shaoren looked at Lin Zhan as he continued, “So she’s the girlfriend that you spoke of.”

Lin Zhan’s expression was extremely ugly. He knew that Ye Zhen had taken Ye Qing’s place in marrying Lu Beichuan, but he could also easily tell that it was Ye Qing sitting next to Lu Beichuan right now and not Ye Zhen. However, he felt as if he was looking at a stranger when he heard Ye Qing’s words. In his memories, Ye Qing was a kind-hearted, magnanimous, and prideful woman. But, the woman before him had changed into someone that was cold-blooded, cautious, and acquiescent.

She was clearly the one that had run away with him, but she had calmly pushed the blame onto Ye Zhen!

Lin Zhan tightened his grip on the chopsticks. The veins on the back of his hand were raised up.

Right at the moment when he couldn’t bear to keep quiet any longer, someone kicked him below the table.

He instinctively looked at Ye Zhen. Sitting across from him, Ye Zhen had her head lowered, and her face was slightly flushed. She secretly smiled at him and shook her head. He was surprised to see that she was looking at him with a pleading gaze.

The sparkling lights from the chandelier above the dining table were reflected in her eyes. It was as if her eyes contained resplendent stars.

At that very moment, the anger in Lin Zhan’s suddenly disappeared. The hand that was holding the chopsticks relaxed.

From Lin Zhan’s point of view, Ye Zhen had been utterly medicorce since childhood, but she had been braver than anyone else at the critical moment. When her older sister had heedlessly run off with him, she had been willing to sacrifice her happiness and future to save her older sister and her family by marrying a comatose person.

Now that the comatose person had woken up, she was willing to step to the side without having gotten any benefit for herself. She was even willing to bear the burden of her older sister’s prior actions and damage her own reputation by doing so. In contrast, her older sister was eagerly dumping the consequences of her actions onto her younger sister.
