CHAPTER 84: CHAPTER 84: GOAL ACHIEVED

At night, Gu Wanwan lay on the bed, tossing and turning while looking at the blood test report.

Was she really pregnant? Initially, she was just a bit worried, but she didn’t expect it to be true.

She didn’t know if this was good or bad. After struggling for a long time, she still didn’t dare to tell her own Li Yulan.

"Brother Mingchen, what should I do? I’m really pregnant."

After sending this message, Gu Wanwan’s heart skipped a beat.

Even though they were about to get engaged, she always felt uneasy inside.

"Ding-dong—"

Gu Wanwan looked at the WeChat notification, "Since we’re all getting engaged, pregnant is pregnant. Even if the Ye Family doesn’t acknowledge it, I can afford it, so don’t stress."

She pouted, what did this mean, was it just a matter of whether she could afford it or not?

After thinking for a while, Gu Wanwan dialed Ye Mingchen’s phone number.

But after just two rings, a cold voice message came from the other side of the screen: "Hello, the number you have dialed is currently on another call..."

Gu Wanwan sat up instantly. Did Ye Mingchen hang up her call? This had never happened before!

Could it really be like her father said, even if this marriage happens, her days won’t be good?

"Wanwan, I’m talking to my dad, can I call you back tomorrow?"

Looking at the message on WeChat, Gu Wanwan frowned.

It’s almost ten o’clock, what matter could they be discussing?

Judging by Ye Mingchen’s personality of hating to talk about work after getting off work, he was probably wandering somewhere he didn’t want her to know about and that’s why he hung up her call!

Gu Wanwan originally wanted to explode, but remembering what Li Yulan told her, she eventually suppressed her emotions: "Then let’s talk tomorrow! Brother Mingchen, you should rest early, the engagement will be busy."

Ye Mingchen replied instantly: "Okay, good night."

Gu Wanwan tossed her phone aside, the reply was fast indeed, undoubtedly he was out playing.

Indeed, men never cherish what they have won.

When Gu Ningyue was around, Ye Mingchen and she sneaked around happily.

After their relationship was exposed, due to various pressures, Ye Mingchen seemed to enjoy taking it all upon himself, displaying a macho attitude of protecting others.

But now, everything has settled, and Ye Mingchen no longer had the thrill of the chase, his attitude finally started to change.

However, she didn’t care anymore.

As long as she could become the Young Madame of the Ye Family, whether Ye Mingchen liked her or not didn’t really matter.

Thinking this way, Gu Wanwan closed her eyes, feeling a little comforted in her heart.

In fact, after pretending for so long, she almost believed herself that she really liked Ye Mingchen.

From the start, she had been scheming, taking advantage of Ye Mingchen’s dislike for Gu Ningyue to seduce him.

And Ye Mingchen, all along, was someone who appeared serious on the outside but liked novelty and excitement inside.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have disregarded the Ye Family’s reputation to be with her.

To put it simply, she just happened to fit right into Ye Mingchen’s trap!

But now, with her goal achieved, she should wake up.

Since she was already pregnant, she should find some time to get the certificate sorted out.

To prevent things from dragging on, leaving her with nothing in the end.

At dawn the next day, Gu Wanwan called Ye Mingchen and arranged to meet him at a café.

Ye Mingchen was wearing a white shirt, but the shirt looked a bit wrinkled, which wasn’t like Ye Mingchen’s usual style.

It seemed Ye Mingchen hadn’t had time to change clothes and came to meet her appointment.

"What’s wrong? Did something happen?" Ye Mingchen yawned and sat facing Gu Wanwan.

Somehow, previously, Gu Wanwan had an endearing, fragile charm to her.

But now, looking at her, she seemed no different from other girls.

Compared to the enchanting Gu Ningyue, Gu Wanwan seemed somewhat petty.

"I thought it over all night, Brother Mingchen, let’s find a time to get the certificate first?" Gu Wanwan touched her belly, "I always feel uneasy."

Ye Mingchen glanced at her, "So urgent? It’s not necessary! My dad has already given his consent, there’s no rush for this period."

Gu Wanwan’s face turned pale, her eyelashes trembled gently, like a butterfly about to fly but falling: "My heart rate has been speeding up recently, and I can’t sleep well at night, Brother Mingchen, let’s just get the certificate first! If this continues, I’m really afraid it will affect the child in my womb."

Ye Mingchen was silent for who knows how long, finally nodding, "I’ll go back and discuss it with my parents, to see what they think. If they don’t agree, this matter will have to wait."

He didn’t seem to care about the child in Gu Wanwan’s belly, but just didn’t want Gu Wanwan to use this matter to trouble him, hoping to maintain his own independent space.

Upon hearing this, Gu Wanwan didn’t insist, showing a smile on her face, "Brother Mingchen, are you busy today? It’s been a long time since you’ve accompanied me shopping."

"Not today, there’s something at the company." Ye Mingchen said indifferently, "Another day, I’ll take you shopping."

Gu Wanwan pursed her lips, suppressing the imbalance in her heart, "Okay! Brother Mingchen, do take care, I’m heading back first."

Ye Mingchen nodded, "I’ll see you out."

Gu Wanwan agreed, but before Ye Mingchen could pay the bill, a woman walked in from the door.

She was wearing a thin-strapped red dress, walking in the sunlight like a swaying red rose, making her already pale self even more overshadowed.

"President Ye." Her voice was crisp, like a thunderclap in Gu Wanwan’s heart: "What a coincidence?"

Ye Mingchen’s gaze fell on You Shuying, his smile was two-thirds brighter than it had been with Gu Wanwan: "Mm, bringing my girlfriend over for a drink."

You Shuying glanced at Gu Wanwan, extended her hand with a smile, "Hello, sister-in-law, I am President Ye’s studio pharmacist. I heard you’re getting engaged, congratulations."

Even though she was smiling, Gu Wanwan felt as if she’d been overshadowed.

But under these watchful eyes, she had no choice but to reluctantly extend her hand for a handshake: "Thank you!"

"Is President Ye leaving?" You Shuying asked.

Ye Mingchen nodded, "Yes!"

You Shuying smiled and said, "Take care, President Ye. I’m meeting someone and need to wait here for a bit."

"Goodbye."

Ye Mingchen left with Gu Wanwan, as they departed, Gu Wanwan looked back.

You Shuying was supporting her chin with her hand, revealing a charming smile in the sunlight.

When she noticed Gu Wanwan turning back, she even waved at her.

Her lips were moving, but Gu Wanwan couldn’t hear what she was saying.

She just felt like the unease in her heart grew stronger.

No, she had to get married to Ye Mingchen as soon as possible, she just had to!
