“Bei Bei, I beg of you, I’m only buying an ovum from you. There wouldn’t be any adverse effect on you. I really need a child!”
“But since you’re using my ovum, wouldn’t the child that you’ll give birth to be my child?”
“Of course not! Even though it’s your ovum, it will be implanted into my body and develop in my womb. After giving birth, it will naturally be my child.”
“No, that’s not it. Although it has been nurtured in your womb, it’s still a child related to me by blood. Not yours! …I’m sorry. I really can’t accept this. Sorry, Sister Bai. You should look for someone else instead…”
…
“Oh…”
In her dream, Ye Xingbei scrunched her brow up in unease. Her lashes fluttered a few times before she opened her eyes.
How strange.
She had dreamed of these things again.
It had been so long since she had remembered this matter whenever she was awake.
After all, she had not agreed with Bai Mengluan’s request to buy her ovum back then.
Massaging her forehead, she flipped onto one side and fell asleep again.
“Bei Bei, believe me. This baby is really your child! I’m getting married soon, so I can’t let my fiancé know that I gave birth to a child before. Quickly carry him away; he is your child so he has nothing to do with me!”
“No, Sister Bai, you’re mistaken. This isn’t my child. I rejected you at that time and I did not give you my ovum.”
…
“Ye Xingbei, how can you be so shameless—fooling around with men at such a young age and even giving birth to a b*stard? Our Jiang family does not have a daughter like you, so get out!”
Random objects showered down onto her as they smashed against her body.
“No, I didn’t… I didn’t…”
Amidst her dreams, Ye Xingbei couldn’t help shaking her head as fine beads of perspiration seeped out of her forehead.
“Ladies and gentlemen, the plane is about to land. Please return to your designated seats…”
The air stewardess’ sweet voice rang next to her ear.
Sitting up abruptly, Ye Xingbei wiped the sweat from her forehead.
Bai Mengluan, who had gone back on her words… And a baby, who had been forcibly stuffed into her embrace… The Jiang family that had chased her out of the house without listening to her explanations.
Sighing lightly, she tilted her head to look outside the seat window.
Jiang City.
After five long years of absence from Jiang City… She was back.
*
20 minutes later, Ye Xingbei walked out of the airport.
She was wearing a large pair of sunglasses that hid almost half of her small, palm-sized face.
A white shirt was on her upper body—black shorts on her lower body, and a beige trench coat on the outside—she also displayed a long pair of straight and fair legs.
Regardless of her appearance, figure or fashion style, she caused the gazes of the people waiting at the airport to brighten.
Especially since she was also followed by three tall and handsome men in suits behind her. One of them was pushing the luggage cart while the other two were tailing closely and guarding them.
Although they hadn’t met in five years, Jiang Siyou—who had been waiting outside the railings—still recognized Ye Xingbei at a glance.
Seeing how Ye Xingbei’s appearance attracted the gazes of everyone present, Jiang Siyou’s heart felt like it had been splashed by a bucket of sulfuric acid. All her organs were burning painfully with jealousy.
Although they hadn’t seen each other in five years, Ye Xingbei had become even more beautiful. Even if she used her harshest gaze to nitpick at her, Jiang Siyou could not find a single flaw. Her own beauty couldn’t compare to Ye Xingbei’s at all.
But, so what?
Gritting her teeth, Jiang Siyou thought viciously. No matter how beautiful she—Ye Xingbei—was, she wouldn’t be able to escape the impending fate of being a widow.
Moreover, the person whom Ye Xingbei was to marry, was the eldest son of the Gu family.
If she married someone else, she could still marry again once her husband died.
But when someone married a member of the Gu family, and if her husband died, she could only be a widow for her entire life!
Thinking of the imminent future, where she could see the scene of Ye Xingbei wearing mourning clothes while crying unhappily—as she would be a widow for a lifetime—the hate that Jiang Siyou felt in her heart abated slightly as the corners of her mouth lifted into a smile. When Ye Xingbei was about to pass by in front of her, the latter called her to a stop, “Bei Bei, you’re back? I waited for you for a long time!”
Hearing someone shout her pet name, Ye Xingbei stopped in her tracks and twisted her head to look over.
That was… Jiang Siyou?
Jiang Siyou did not seem to have changed in the five years of absence—charming curled hair, classical oval face shape and the sweet yet hypocritical smile on her face.
Staring at Jiang Siyou for a while, Ye Xingbei strolled leisurely towards her, “What are you doing here?”
Jiang Siyou was very dissatisfied with Ye Xingbei’s unceremonious tone.
However, even if Ye Xingbei was about to become a widow, she would still be a widow of the Gu family—she couldn’t afford to offend her.
As a result, she plastered an even sweeter smile on her face, “Bei Bei, knowing that you’re coming back today, Dad and Mom specifically asked me to fetch you home. Let us get into the car quickly, so that we won’t miss Grandpa’s final meeting.”
Ye Xingbei was dragged forcibly into the car by Jiang Siyou.
In the car, a hidden fragrance drifted around.
Strangely, Ye Xingbei had slept through the whole journey on the plane but after sitting in the car for a while, she actually fell asleep again.
When she woke up again, she discovered that she was sleeping on an unfamiliar bed and there was an unknown man lying next to her.
Ye Xingbei’s sleepiness disappeared in an instant and she abruptly sat up on the bed. Looking over at the man by her side with eyes wide open, she thought that she was dreaming.
As though he sensed it, the man opened his eyes.
Obviously, he had just woken up from his slumber, yet his gaze was as sharp as a sword. It made people unable to look at him directly.
“Who are you?” The man sat up and interrogated coldly.
Ye Xingbei pinched herself hard.
It hurt!
She wasn’t dreaming!
Recalling all the things that had happened before she lost consciousness, she trembled with anger.
She had been manipulated by Jiang Siyou!
The innocence that she had guarded for 21 years was ruined!
Jiang Siyou, she would never let her off!
Angry at Jiang Siyou’s malevolent deceit and angry with her own stupidity, Ye Xingbei’s whole body trembled with fury and she was unable to speak.
“Answer my question!” When the man saw that she wasn’t talking, he abruptly seized her chin and his gaze became even icier, “Woman, speak. Who are you? Who sent you here?”
“Let me go!” Ye Xingbei fiercely struck at his hand and pressed him for information angrily, “I’m the one who should be asking that! Who are you? Who sent you here? Why… Why…”
Staring at her, the man narrowed his eyes.
He had to admit that this woman before his eyes was the cream of the crop in terms of appearance.
In the past, many people used beautiful women to please him, but it was the first time he had seen someone as beautiful as this girl in front of his eyes.
One could not ignore that a lot of things on this earth depended on one’s appearance; someone who was beautiful would always be easily forgiven.
Besides, he seemed to have recognized who she was already.
