Chapter 256: Can’t Hide Her Stomach
“But he still hasn’t mailed you the divorce paper.” He didn’t know what on earth Li Yunshen was thinking. What was the purpose of dragging it on?
“Perhaps he’s busy, he said he’ll give it to me.” She wanted to divorce as soon as possible, but an inner voice was also resisting that moment.
Women were such a strange animal; she hated his heartlessness so much yet she still longed for his relent.
But she thought that it was impossible between them, impossible! And she hoped that time could make her memories of him grow weaker.
“But it is a surprise that he decided to stop taking revenge on the Tang Enterprise.” Tang Lingfeng rubbed his chin, wanting to see her reaction.
Tang Xin only smiled lightly, “There’s nothing to be surprised about. His little girl is back so there’s no reason for him to continue.”
“Perhaps, but I didn’t even know that girl was still alive. She shouldn’t be alive.” Tang Lingfeng mumbled to himself.
“Second Brother…” Tang Xin suddenly looked up but hesitated.
“Mhm?” Tang Lingfeng looked at her confusedly.
“Nothing.” Tang Xin smiled. She wanted to ask about what had happened back then, but she wasn’t certain enough that she had enough courage to face the reality.
She glanced at her watch and tidied up the table briefly, “I’m going to buy some desserts, is there anything important you need to tell me?”
It was still an hour until her shift ended but thanks to the baby, she could arrive late or leave early.
“Nothing. Be careful, I’ll tell the driver to send you there.” As Tang Lingfeng was about to call the driver for her, his phone rang.
Tang Xin saw that he was busy with calls and turned his offer down. She waved at him and left the space.
“Uncle…”
Tang Lingfeng heard the voice on the other side of the call and his whole body became tense. Although his uncle wasn’t much older than him, his status was higher. Tang Xian’s existence alone was enough to make them acknowledge him — plus, his extraordinary leadership skills and the wisdom under his perfect looks caused others to admire him.
“What! Li Yunshen’s back? Just got off the plane?!”
Tang Lingfeng immediately looked up and saw that Tang Xin had already left the room. He quickly chased after her.
In the call, his Uncle urged him to pay close attention to Li Enterprise’s movements. If Tang Enterprise’s stocks kept on dropping then he would be switched out.
However, Tang Lingfeng wasn’t in the mood to worry about whether he would still be the CEO tomorrow or not. He was worried that Tang Xin may accidentally bump into Li Yunshen. If they met, then she wouldn’t be able to hide her stomach.
…
After they got off the plane, Li Yunshen said that he was buying desserts for Xia Zhixing, asked the Star Garden’s driver to pick her up, and gave Zhao Yang time off. He drove to the seaside villa and watched for half an hour outside in the car, but only the same people were coming in and out; the owner didn’t live here.
Li Yunshen was annoyed at the thought that she was living with another man this entire month and was receiving another man’s care — he smashed the steering wheel with his fist before finally going to buy the desserts that Xia Zhixing had wanted to eat when she was still in the States.
The familiar corner, familiar dessert shop, and a familiar silhouette.
Tang Xin got out of the taxi and walked to the shop with a smile.
On the other side of the road, a car slowly pulled to a stop and the baby suddenly kicked in Tang Xin’s stomach. She immediately stopped and smiled at it, “You are hungry too? Mommy will go buy it now.”
