Chapter 222: Zheng Yue is Pregnant

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

It was late at night when Nan Kang returned to Zheng Yue’s house.

He pushed open the door and saw Zheng Yue lying on the table with a few dishes in front of her, as if she was waiting for him to come back.

It was clearly a beautiful and warm scene, but there was no warmth in Nan Kang’s eyes.

Thinking of the secretary’s report today, he narrowed his eyes and put the things aside. He walked to Zheng Yue and carried her to the bedroom.

“Oh… you’re back.” Zheng Yue was jolted awake.

Her voice was groggy. She opened her sleepy eyes and saw Nan Kang’s face in front of her and subconsciously smiled.

Then, Zheng Yue remembered the food she had prepared. “Have you eaten? I made some…”

Nan Kang placed her on the bed. “I’ve eaten.”

His answer was short and flat, with a hint of imperceptible alienation. Zheng Yue was not fully awake yet and did not realize that something was wrong.

“Go to sleep.” After saying that, he took off his coat and lay on the other side of Zheng Yue.

It was already very late. When Nan Kang came back and saw that Zheng Yue had waited for him till she had fallen asleep, he didn’t want to think about the suspicious points about her. Under the entanglement of rationality and emotions, he chose to close his eyes and fall asleep.

However, Zheng Yue gradually sobered up. She thought of the pills she had just made today and looked at Nan Kang beside her. After thinking for a moment, she took the initiative to lean forward and hook her arm around Nan Kang’s arm.

She kissed Nan Kang lightly, her actions clearly dishonest.

Nan Kang couldn’t sleep anyway, so he opened his eyes and looked at her. “Take your medicine.”

The anger in his heart was small, but Zheng Yue’s actions were like a small flame, causing this anger to swell and gradually occupy Nan Kang’s brain.

He spoke briefly, but Zheng Yue was overjoyed. She took out the fake pills she had prepared long ago.

She had placed the reshaped vitamin pill in the packaging of the contraceptive pill beforehand so that she could take the pill out in front of Nan Kang. She then put it in her mouth and obediently let him confirm it.

Deception was easier than expected, and Zheng Yue’s plan went smoothly.

Every day pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye as Murong Qiao helped Zheng Yue while dealing with her company’s matters.

Now she was at the set of Wulin Universe and had just attended the opening ceremony.

An Nuo was sitting beside Murong Qiao. She had beautiful makeup on her face and couldn’t sit still.

“This is my first time playing the female lead!” she said excitedly.

When she was chosen as the female lead of Wulin Universe, she still couldn’t believe it. She didn’t expect to become an artiste before she graduated from acting, and have such a good position from the beginning.

Murong Qiao glanced at her. “Nervous?”

Yu Xiao also sent a message to Murong Qiao in the name of inviting the author.

Fortunately, she was not so busy these two days. Thinking that she had not seen An Nuo for a long time, Murong Qiao agreed. Moreover, she remembered the change in the female lead of “Fearless”.

In order to prevent such a thing from happening again, it was necessary to take this opportunity to meet the actors.

“A little, but Director Yu Xiao is very easy to get along with. The production team is also very good.” An Nuo sighed.

Although it was a new environment, fortunately, a portion of the actors in Wulin Universe this time were from the CG company. Everyone had only met a few times, but An Nuo was good at adapting.

An Nuo was a good person and had a cheerful and lively personality, so it was hard not to like her.

Murong Qiao listened to her and nodded from time to time. Suddenly, she felt her cell phone vibrate.

She took it out and saw that it was a message from Zheng Yue.

[Qiaoqiao, I’m pregnant.]

Zheng Yue was sitting in the corridor of the hospital. She was wearing a fisherman’s hat and dark sungla.s.ses with a mask that covered her entire face. She was dressed in black and sat there quietly.

“Mom, she’s so scary.” The child beside her tugged at the corner of her mother’s clothes and said.

The child took a look at the dark monster and felt this woman was very strange.

The child’s mother glanced at Zheng Yue and frowned as she pulled the child away.

It didn’t seem right for such a young girl to visit the gynecology and obstetrics department. It was best to stay away from her.

Zheng Yue could not tell what she was feeling at this moment. She clenched her cold hands together, trying to ignore the gazes of others.

[Where are you, Qiaoqiao?] She couldn’t help but send Murong Qiao a message.

After her tireless efforts, Zheng Yue realized that she had been feeling nauseous for the past two days. Moreover, her emotions were not right. Most importantly, her period that came on time every month had not arrived.

She bought a pregnancy test kit and secretly used it when Nan Kang went to work, only to see two bars appear.

Zheng Yue took a deep breath and suppressed the joy in her heart, forcing herself to calm down and think about what to do next.

She had to keep the child. If she told Nan Kang that she was pregnant now, he would definitely ask her to abort it.

[Five minutes.] Murong Qiao replied.

After knowing that Zheng Yue was pregnant, Murong Qiao immediately bade farewell to An Nuo and took a taxi to the hospital address she mentioned.

When Zheng Yue saw this message, she was relieved, but she was still a little nervous.

This time, she didn’t tell Nan Kang that she was going out. She deliberately covered herself tightly, afraid that someone would recognize her.

Moreover, Nan Kang especially liked to ask her to stay by his side for the past two days. He wanted her to partic.i.p.ate in everything, big or small. He said that he wanted to nurture her, but Zheng Yue was a little resistant.

If she was really pregnant and the changes in her body gradually became obvious, she would be exposed if she hung around Nan Kang.

Just as she was letting one’s imagination run wild, Murong Qiao finally appeared at the end of the corridor.

“Qiaoqiao!” Zheng Yue stood up.

She subconsciously wanted to raise her voice, but when she realized that it would show her presence, she hurriedly lowered it.

Murong Qiao quickly walked to Zheng Yue’s side and looked at her “fully armored” appearance.

She came in a hurry and her breathing was fast now. “How is it? Did you do a checkup?”

Murong Qiao didn’t expect Zheng Yue to be so hardworking. She actually received news so quickly.

Zheng Yue shook her head. “No, I don’t dare to do it myself.”

She sounded scared and a little helpless, as if she didn’t know how to deal with this matter.

“Can I trouble you to register me, Qiaoqiao? 1-1 really don’t want to be seen by them…” Zheng Yue hesitated.

Her tone was pitiful as she carefully tugged at the corner of Murong Qiao’s shirt.

Murong Qiao looked at her. Even with the sungla.s.ses covering her, her gaze seemed to be able to meet Zheng Yue’s. Her clear eyes stared at her quietly, making Zheng Yue feel even more guilty.

Being looked at like this made Zheng Yue feel like her thoughts had been seen through. Murong Qiao’s gaze was as sharp as a knife and could easily cut open her flesh and open it.

She pursed her lips and tightened her heart. After a long time, she finally saw Murong Qiao nod and agree.

Murong Qiao let her sit here first. “I’ll go to the counter to register.”

After saying that, Murong Qiao turned around and went to the registration area of the hospital. However, when she turned around with her back facing Zheng Yue, she sneered.

Zheng Yue’s voice was soft and weak. It was like a drop of water falling into the sea among the crowd in the hospital. It did not cause any ripples, so others naturally did not hear it.

Zheng Yue’s thoughts naturally could not escape Murong Qiao’s eyes.

She looked afraid, but it was because she was afraid that Nan Kang would find out, so she asked Murong Qiao to help cover it up.

“h.e.l.lo, registration.” Murong Qiao queued up to the front. “Pregnancy checkup.”

Her tone was as normal as if she was eating and drinking, so she did not attract much attention..
