I'm Pregnant with the Villain's Child

Chapter 291 – If he was gone, she wouldn’t be used to it (1)

Lu Beichuan and Ye Zhen’s fingers were intertwined, and their wedding rings were conspicuous, especially Ye Zhen’s diamond ring. Standing together, they couldn’t look more suited for each other.

“I don’t look to the past. I only look at the present.”

Lu Beichuan had also seen those online comments describing his relationship with Ye Zhen as one between a prince and Cinderella. They said there was nothing good about Ye Zhen and that she was so lucky in marrying him.

He was the only one that clearly knew that only a small fraction of Ye Zhen’s goodness was known to others.

When he was in a coma, everyone had been harboring ulterior motives. Ye Zhen was the only one that wholeheartedly looked forward to him waking up without ulterior motives. She was also the only one that believed without a doubt that he would wake up.

“Lu Beichuan, look at Ye Qing.” Mother Ye pulled Ye Qing in front of her and anxiously said, “She knows everything! She knows how to play the piano and the violin. She’s always been exceptional. She’s my pride and joy. Only Ye Qing is good enough to match you. Ye Zhen doesn’t know anything. How could she be good enough for you?!”

Ye Qing looked even more anxious. As she looked at Lu Beichuan, she had an apologetic look that was fitting for the occasion. She seemed to be apologizing for her mother. With a somewhat angry expression, she rebuked, “Mom, stop talking about that!”

A cold look flitted across Lu Beichuan’s eyes.

“Ye Zhen told Ye Qing and me that she would return Ye Qing’s place to her. Back then, she brought up going abroad in order to get away from you. It was Ye Zhen’s idea to replace herself with Ye Qing on the wedding day. She did so many things and it was all because she doesn’t love you. She wants to leave you! Why do you think she’s with you now? It’s all for your money! Otherwise, she would have left you a long time ago!”

Lu Beichuan furrowed his brow. He clenched his jaw, causing his face to become tense. His expression was so imposing that it was scary.

Mother Ye wasn’t finished. “Do you know about Lin Zhan? Do you know that Ye Zhen liked Lin Zhan so much? She secretly wore Ye Qing’s pretty clothing to go see Lin Zhan. She thought I didn’t know…”

Lu Beichuan wasn’t willing to hear anymore. Tightly holding Ye Zhen’s hand, he strode out of the police station. Even when they had walked a distance, he could still hear Mother Ye’s crying from afar.

“Only my Qingqing is good enough for you!”

Lu Beichuan and Ye Zhen remained silent the entire way out.

After they got into the car, Lu Beichuan abruptly pressed Ye Zhen down on the back seat. Ye Zhen didn’t even have time to say anything. It took a moment for her vision to refocus from his sudden movement. A flawless face suddenly loomed above her and got close to her. Lu Beichuan vigorously bit her lips. Their lips and tongues intertwined and his forcefulness almost knocked the breath out of her.

Ye Zhen instinctively tried to move her head away, but Lu Beichuan had a forceful grip on the back of her head. He wouldn’t let her move, much less escape. She could only accept the unexpected kiss.

“Mmm-” Ye Zhen fiercely pushed Lu Beichuan away. She gasped for air and glowered at Lu Beichuan, “What are you doing?”

Had he lost his mind?!

Ye Zhen resentfully looked at herself in the rear mirror. Her hairstyle was messy and her face was flushed. She cut a sorry figure.

“What’s wrong with you?!” Ye Zhen was shaking as she set out to tidy up hair and fix her makeup. Her heart was beating faster.

He had been fine at the police station. Why did he suddenly…

Lu Beichuan suddenly sat up on the side. He didn’t say a word. It took a few deep animalistic inhales and exhales until his breathing was smooth.

Lu Beichuan had a clear understanding of everything that Mother Ye said. He knew that Ye Zhen didn’t love him. However, knowing it was one thing. Hearing someone saying it was different.

Ye Zhen was with him because of their son and their contract. There were too many factors, but she had never said that she was with him out of love.

He wanted Ye Zhen to wholeheartedly fall in love with him. Love him because of him. A pure love between him and Ye Zhen that didn’t involve any other factors.

Ye Zhen opened the car window. A cool breeze poured in, cooling and calming them down. Their frazzled brains gained a moment of peace.

“What’s gotten into you?” Ye Zhen looked at him and whispered, “Is it because of what she said?”

Ye Zhen was referring to Mother Ye.

Lu Beichuan leaned back and closed his eyes. It was only when his breathing had completely calmed down that he opened his eyes again to look at Ye Zhen. Guilt became the primary emotion in his eyes.

Seeing that guilty look on him, Ye Zhen wasn’t willing to look him in the eyes. She perfunctorily said, “It’s okay.”

Right after she said that, he pulled her over to his side of the car. Face to face and hugging, Lu Beichuan rested his head on her shoulder. He asked, “Why did you remain at the Lu’s?”

Ye Zhen thought this question was silly. What else could it be?

“You’re so strange. Why are you asking this question?” Ye Zhen thought it over. She thought it was because Mother Ye’s words had stimulated him. After all, she had run away from him once.

“Answer me. Why?”

Ye Zhen really did seriously think about it. “I already have a kid with you, so I might as well make the best of it.”

Lu Beichuan stiffened. Soon after, he asked her in a hoarse voice, “Is it only because of our son? If we didn’t have a child…”
