âYouâre right. I donât have the right to ask about you anymore,â Ji Shiting said hoarsely. âI wonât force you if you donât want to tell me. However, youâd better ensure that this doesnât have any serious consequences, otherwise...â
The man sounded calm, but Ye Shenggeâs face paled.
She bit her lips and retracted her hand. âDonât worry. Iâm an adult. I can be responsible for myself. Whatever happens to me has nothing to do with you.â
Ji Shiting sneered and got angrier.
That woman had been rejecting him ever since he got hurt, but she had never been so firm and cruel.
âYe Shengge, how can you say I donât have the right to ask about you when you want to get benefits from me?â The man sneered, but there was some pain in his voice. âSince youâre determined to draw the line with me, you better be prepared.â
Ye Shengge bit her lips and said, âI understand.â
The womanâs calm and indifferent face was like a huge sarcasm, as if all his determination was a joke.
Ji Shiting was furious.
He clenched his fist, wanting to suffocate that woman or press her down and torture her until she couldnât speak anymore. He wanted to see if she would still dare to treat him like this.
However, he also knew that if he did that, he would only receive intense resistance and rejection.
The man sneered, looked away and walked to the door.
Ye Shengge listened to his footsteps until the door closed. She took a deep breath and sat back on the sofa.
He would only be able to not ask anything if he was angry.
After a while, Lin Qi walked out of the room and came to her.
âSister Shengge...â She sounded choked.â Do you really not remember who the babyâs father is? â
Ye Shenggeâs eyelashes fluttered. After a while, she put her hand on her belly.
The warmth of Ji Shitingâs palm was still there.
âIâm afraid we canât go to the hospital anytime soon,â she said. âUnless I decide to abort the child.â
She had planned to go to the hospital to confirm it, but Ji Shiting was already suspicious. If she went to the hospital, she wouldnât be able to hide it from that man.
Lin Qi nodded.
Ye Shengge suddenly recalled something. She grabbed Lin Qiâs wrist and said, âBy the way, thereâs a record of you buying things in the convenience store, right? Perhaps heâll ask...â
âYou donât have to worry about that.â Lin Qi patted her chest. âI saw the CCTV in the convenience store, and I thought, Youâre already a big star, and Iâm by your side every day. What if I get recognized? So I asked a man to buy it for me. That way, at least there wonât be any video evidence. I just casually bought a pack of sanitary towels.â
Ye Shengge was dazed, and she couldnât help laughing, âNot bad. Youâre getting smarter.â
âItâs all thanks to Brother Tianyi. Heâs been giving us lessons whenever heâs free, teaching us how to protect the artistsâ privacy. The principle is to never leave any videos, so Iâm very cautious when I see the CCTV,â Lin Qi said.
Ye Shengge nodded and said, âLetâs sleep.â
