Chapter 309: Chapter 309 I Only Love You

She was about to lock the door, but Lu Lei was quick and kept the door open first.

“Linlin, can I come in?”

“Get lost!”

But Xi Wanlin, a pregnant woman, had been suffering from severe morning sickness lately, barely able to eat anything, and now she felt weak all over, no match for Lu Lei.

Soon, Lu Lei pushed the door open, entered, and then held Xi Wanlin.

“Let go of me!” Xi Wanlin hated him to the bone now, how could she have been divorced if not because of him?

“Linlin, I know you hate me, but everything I did was because I love you,” Lu Lei said, kneeling before her.

“If you really loved me, you should cut ties with me, then watch me live happily in the Li Family.”

“No, you wouldn’t be happy, because you don’t really love Li Hengze, you just used him. I’m your true love. It’s only that my family can’t compare to the Li Family, but I have also struggled. I’ve fought for so many years just to marry you; I’ve liked you since middle school. My love for you is real too.”

Xi Wanlin took a sharp breath: “Stop talking!”

Lu Lei insisted on speaking: “I can’t watch you go astray, tangled up with Li Hengze. You have such a long life ahead; you shouldn’t marry just because of family background and social status. I am your best match.”

Xi Wanlin looked at him resentfully, “Best match? Can you guarantee that you will love me for a lifetime?”

“I swear!” said Lu Lei.

“But I won’t be with someone who is unscrupulous for their goals!” Xi Wanlin declared.

Lu Lei gave a bitter smile, “Linlin, do you know why we’ve always been especially happy together? Because we are the same kind of people. You say I’m unscrupulous, aren’t you the same? In order to drive Su Meixi out of Yun City, you even did something illegal, remember?”

Xi Wanlin: “… I just wanted to drive her out of Yun City, I didn’t want her life, but you–your actions led to my divorce, you’re after my life!”

Lu Lei continued to hold her, “Linlin, you’re carrying my child, and sooner or later the Li Family will find out, then you will also be kicked out.”

“Stop talking! Besides, how are you so sure this child is yours? Li Hengze and I rarely took safety measures.”

“No matter whose child it is, I’ll acknowledge it. As long as you give birth to it, it will be our child,” said Lu Lei.

Xi Wanlin still didn’t want to see him, “Just leave, I want to be alone.”

“No, this is the hardest time for you, I should stay by your side, Linlin, what do you want to eat now? I’ll cook for you, or shall I buy your favorite food?”

Xi Wanlin’s morning sickness was severe, she threw up whatever she ate, plus she was in a bad mood, she looked utterly exhausted.

“I don’t want to eat anything, I just want to lie down alone.”

Lu Lei coaxed her: “Can you eat a few bites? Seeing you like this also makes me very upset.”

Mainly featuring deep affection and relentless pestering.

Xi Wanlin hated him, but she couldn’t make him leave either.

“Fine, do whatever you want, just don’t bother me!” said Xi Wanlin.

Lu Lei quickly held her, “I won’t bother you, but don’t reject my kindness toward you.”

He immediately ordered takeout, all very fragrant items, burgers, fries, hot and sour noodles, all appetizing dishes.

In the last few days, all Xi Wanlin had ingested was water and a few cookies to sustain herself, now with Lu Lei bringing all these things to coax her, she still ate a bit.

Watching Lu Lei trying to please her cautiously, she suddenly felt a bit less lonely.

Perhaps Lu Lei was right, they were fundamentally the same type of person, which is why they had that intensely passionate affair.

In the following days, Lu Lei continued to stay with her.

One day, he received a delivery, but he acted all secretive and wouldn’t let Xi Wanlin see it.

“What did you receive?” asked Xi Wanlin.

Lu Lei locked himself in his room, and after about ten minutes or so, the door opened.

Out came a bear, but it was clearly Lu Lei in costume.

He even danced around, hilariously to the point that Xi Wanlin couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

After Lu Lei finished dancing, he took off the bear head and smilingly asked Xi Wanlin, “Do you like it? If you do, next time should I dress up as a gorilla or an elephant?”

Xi Wanlin said, “Childish!”

“For you, what’s wrong with being childish once in a while?”

Then he went over to hug Xi Wanlin, and this time, she didn’t push him away. Right now, with everyone turning their backs on her, she indeed needed someone by her side, and since he was so caring toward her, she had no reason to refuse.

…

Su Meixi and Gu Wei had a lot of fun in Li City in the past few days.

They went boating, sampled local delicacies, and even visited an ancient city.

The itinerary was very relaxed, and they would go back to rest whenever they felt tired.

With their moods completely relaxed and constantly being in each other’s company in such a beautiful setting, their affection for each other grew daily, and every night was filled with sparks of love.

In such a situation, it should be easy to conceive, thought Su Meixi.

Like many such plots in TV and movies, where the main characters have been married for a long time without conceiving, but then become pregnant after a trip.

Maybe next month she wouldn’t need to buy sanitary pads.

…

Because the schedule wasn’t rushed, they enjoyed the trip without feeling tired at all.

After returning to Yun City, Su Meixi received a WeChat message from Dong Xiangming, mentioning that he had already provided psychological counseling to Chen Meizhi, and said her issues were manageable. She was indeed overthinking, which made her behavior increasingly extreme.

He conducted psychological intervention and prescribed some medications, believing that her condition would be under control soon.

He also mentioned that Chen Meizhi would do better in a different environment, but the decision was up to her.

Su Meixi thanked Dong Xiangming and wanted to pay for the treatment, but he declined, explaining that their psychological consultancy had several slots for psychological aid, and Chen Meizhi qualified for free assistance.

That day, Su Meixi also talked about this with Wang Bing.

Mainly because Wang Bing was a bit gossipy, she kept up with the updates after hearing about Chen Meiting’s situation from Su Meixi.

“These days, indeed, I haven’t seen Chen Meiting at the bar, it seems the psychological intervention has been effective,” said Wang Bing.

Grasping the essence, Su Meixi asked with a smile, “So you’re telling me you still go to bars daily?”

Wang Bing laughed and replied, “What else can I do if not go to the bar? Recently I’ve been on day shifts, and it’s boring going back to the dorm in the evening.”

“How’s your divorce proceeding?”

“The process is all done, just waiting to get the divorce certificate,” said Wang Bing.

“It’s a bit of a pity,” said Su Meixi.

“No need to feel sad for me. My mother-in-law was right, I shouldn’t block the toilet if I’m not gonna use it. And Chen Shu didn’t take the house; he gave me half of the house payment, and I plan to buy a smaller apartment.”
