Walking over to the balcony, he picked up his phone to call the villa.

After instructing a lot of things in one breath, he hung up the phone.

Standing outside for a while, he finally managed to restrain the surging joy in his heart.

Once he calmed down, his gaze immediately turned cold and deep.

Ye Mingmei hated him to the bones; if she knew she was pregnant, would she peacefully keep this child?

"Hmm..."

A low murmur came from the room.

Yu Xiuzhun’s brows moved, and he quickly walked inside.

Ye Mingmei shifted her body, her eyelashes trembling slightly, as if she was about to wake up.

Yu Xiuzhun walked to her side, and gently caressed her cheek with affection.

He lowered his head and kissed her lips.

At the same moment, Ye Mingmei opened her eyes.

Her dazed eyes, upon seeing the person in front of her, immediately turned angry.

"Awake? This is the hospital. Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?" Yu Xiuzhun gracefully stepped back, avoiding provoking Ye Mingmei, and spoke softly.

His deep and wicked eyes fixedly stared at her face.

Silently asking that question hundreds of times in his heart.

The final answer was always the same.

She wouldn’t.

She would never have a child for him.

Hospital...

How did she end up in the hospital?

Ye Mingmei was in a daze for a few seconds before subconsciously trying to get up.

As soon as she moved, the pain in her body was obvious.

She was stunned for a moment, her hand pressed against her abdomen.

She looked at Yu Xiuzhun in shock.

"You have a minor bruise on your side, and medication has been applied. You fainted due to excessive stress and lack of sleep, and also, your period arrived." Yu Xiuzhun repeated the prepared explanation without missing a beat.

The doctor had mentioned that Ye Mingmei would still experience slight bleeding in the coming days. Without this explanation, she would easily realize something was wrong.

"...Period?"

Ye Mingmei was startled for a moment, dumbfounded for a few seconds, before realizing what Yu Xiuzhun meant, her face blushing fiercely.

Her period had always been irregular, and upon careful calculation, this month it seemed to have been delayed again for a long time.

She never expected it to come at such an awkward moment.

"Don’t worry, it’s the female nurses at the hospital who handled it for you." As if knowing what she would be concerned about, Yu Xiuzhun explained before Ye Mingmei could ask.

"..."

With his thoughtfulness, Ye Mingmei held in a bellyful of anger, unable to vent it all at once.

Just as she was about to sit up, Yu Xiuzhun pressed down on her shoulder.

"Your current physical condition doesn’t allow you to get up. You need to rest in bed." Yu Xiuzhun tightened his grip, showing a tension Ye Mingmei couldn’t understand.

"I know my own body. I don’t need your concern!" Ye Mingmei pushed his hand away, stubbornly trying to get up.

The next second, she was directly pressed back onto the bed by Yu Xiuzhun.

"Yu Xiuzhun, what madness is this!" Ye Mingmei was furious, glaring at the man preventing her from getting up, wishing she could bite him!

"Yes, I’m the crazy one for worrying about whether you live or die. And you? How normal are you? You’re so reckless with your own body just to spite me. Ye Mingmei, do you think I’ll care if you wear yourself out? Let me tell you, someone like me has no heart and doesn’t know what it means to feel pain, so just give it up!"

"..."

Ye Mingmei was stunned by his sudden outburst, blinked her innocent eyes, and looked at him.

"Who told you I’m being reckless with my body to spite you? I just want to go to the bathroom."

"..."

"Mr. Yu, are you overthinking things?"

Ye Mingmei’s beautiful eyes twinkled with sarcasm, watching Yu Xiuzhun’s body stiffen in an instant, a smile she couldn’t suppress in her eyes.
