My Dangerous Billionaire Husband

The next morning, Leng Zhiyuan went downstairs for breakfast.

Seeing that she was alone at the table, she asked the servant, “Where is my father?”

“Young Lady, the master went out early this morning.”

Leng Zhiyuan looked at the clock. She had gotten up very early today, and it was only six o’clock. “What time did my father go out? Has he been very busy lately?”

“The master left before dawn. He seemed to be very busy these past two days. He often stayed in the study all day without coming out.”

So busy?

“What about my brother?”

“The young master is not on the mainland. He returned to Hong Kong a week ago.”

“Hong Kong?”

“Yes, it seems that the Young Master and Miss Bai patched things up.”

Bai Lingyun, the young lady of the Bai family, was the fiancee of Elder Brother Leng Hao. A while ago, the Bai family insisted on calling off the wedding because the Leng and Bai family had fallen out over Elder Brother Leng and Ye Xiaotao’s relationship.

Bai Lingyun was back together with Elder Brother?

It seemed that Elder Brother went to Hong Kong to chase Bai Lingyun.

Leng Zhiyuan suddenly felt sorry for her father. She and her elder brother were both busy with their love affairs and left all the household matters of the Leng family to their father. No wonder he was so busy that he was nowhere to be seen and had such a bad temper.

She thought of Ye Xiaotao again. She wondered, how was Ye Xiaotao?

So that’s the end of the little girl and her Elder Brother?

Leng Zhiyuan felt that her thoughts were ridiculous. What could they do even if they did not call it off? It can’t be that Elder Brother would make the girl be responsible? Even if she really wanted to take responsibility, Elder Brother wouldn’t even want it.

After breakfast, Leng Zhiyuan was basking in the sun in the back garden. It was a rare moment when she had time to relax, but just then, her mobile phone rang in her pocket. She took it out and looked at it. It was an unknown number. She picked it up. “Hello…”

“Hello, is it Sister Leng?” A deliberately lowered voice that seemed furtive sounded.

Leng Zhiyuan thought the voice sounded a little familiar. She carefully thought about it. Surprised, she responded, “Ye Xiaotao?”

“Yes yes, sister Leng, you still remember me. I’m so moved.”

“You… What’s the reason for your call?”

“It’s like this, Sister Leng. I have been feeling a little sick recently. I want to go to the hospital for a checkup, but I do not have anyone to accompany me. I’m most afraid of places like the hospital. Can Sister Leng accompany me?”

Leng Zhiyuan’s lips lifted into a smile as she lightly laughed. “What about your classmates? What about your daddy, mommy, and elder brothers? Are all of them not accompanying you? Why did you think of looking for me?”

“Sigh.” Ye Xiaotao sighed and sadly replied, “My classmates are having lessons. Today’s class is taught by the devil old man. They dare not skip class as attendance is taken. My father is busy earning money, and my elder brothers are busy earning my father’s money. Oh, except for my third brother. My third brother is so busy that there’s no sight of him these days. As for my <ommy, I don’t have a mommy, but I have three aunts.”

Three aunts?

Leng Zhiyuan guessed that they were the little wives of Ye Xiaotao’s father.

“My three aunts are very kind to me. They care about me, but only in front of my father. As soon as my father turns around, they like to make fun of me, saying that I am a child without a mother and that I have been lacking maternal love since I was a child, that I am very pitiful… Sister Leng, let me tell you, my third aunt is only two years older than me…”

Ye Xiaotao’s chattering was as if she was talking to herself. Leng Zhiyuan thought that she was indeed quite…pitiful. Although she was deemed as the precious pearl of the Ye family, she seemed very lonely.

Leng Zhiyuan strangely felt her heart throb. She had good vibes from this Ye Xiaotao, maybe because she was innocent like a piece of white paper, or maybe they were both the same as they had no mother since they were young.

“Sister Leng, I have to go. Today, my daddy is out, so I can sneak out. The central hospital, Sister Leng, come quickly.”

Ding, ding.Ye Xiaotao had already hung up the phone.

Leng Zhiyuan:…

Did she agree to go?

…

The hospital

Leng Zhiyuan walked into the hospital lobby, and a small figure rushed over. “Sister Leng, you finally came. I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”

Ye Xiaotao happily held on to Leng Zhiyuan’s arm. The 20-year-old girl’s cheeks were pink, tender, and delicate. Her delicate features were tender and innocent from her pampered life, especially her big eyes which were sparkling and lively.

Leng Zhiyuan pulled back her arm. “Where are you feeling unwell?”

“I feel sick all over. I can’t eat, and I feel like vomiting no matter what I look. I can’t concentrate in class. I constantly want to sleep,” said Xiao Tao, who went on to hug Leng Zhiyuan’s arm without any care for manners. She pouted her red lips. “Sister Leng, am I going to die?”

Leng Zhiyuan was helpless. She glanced at her arm which was being hugged and was right next to Xiaotao’s delicate white face. She had no choice but to take her upstairs. “You won’t die. Don’t worry.”

“Oh, is that the case?” Ye Xiaotao looked down at her toes in low spirits. “But the servant at my house said that my mom died of massive bleeding after giving birth to me in the hospital.”

Leng Zhiyuan was taken aback. She suddenly understood why Xiaotao did not dare to come to the hospital. It was probably a natural fear.

“I see everyone has moms, and they didn’t die when they gave birth to their children. But my mom died so suddenly. Will I end up like my mummy?”

“No!” Leng Zhiyuan replied firmly. She noticed the low spirits of Ye Xiaotao today, so she changed the subject. “Anywhere else that you feel uncomfortable?”

Ye Xiaotao thought for a while. “It’s just nausea, vomiting, lethargy. By the way, sister Leng, I haven’t had my period for two months.”

What?

Leng Zhiyuan suddenly stopped. She looked at Ye Xiaotao.

Ye Xiaotao saw that her face changed all of a sudden, and she was also taken aback. “Wahh!” She started bawling. “This is it, Sister Leng. Did I get an incurable disease? I must have gotten an incurable disease! I don’t want to die. I’m still young. I’m still beautiful like a flower. If i just die like this, what a pity it would be, Wuwu…”

Ye Xiaotao’s crying immediately attracted the attention of people in the corridor. Leng Zhiyuan quickly took her hand and led her out of the hospital.

…

Ye Xiaotao was waiting outside a drugstore, and Leng Zhiyuan came out shortly after. She gave the things in her hands to Ye Xiaotao. “There’s a washroom over there. Go in and take a test.”

“Sister Leng, what is this?” Ye Xiaotao took a look at what she had in her hands. “Pregnancy test stick?!”

No matter how innocent she was, Ye Xiaotao understood once she looked at the words on the packaging. She opened up her little cherry-like mouth and was stunned. She couldn’t believe it.

“What, Sister Leng, you’re saying I’m pregnant?”

Looking at her, Leng Zhiyuan did not know whether to cry or laugh. She shrugged. “I’m afraid so. We’ll know after the test.”

Ye Xiaotao ran all the way into the bathroom. She took the test according to the instructions. There was a five minutes wait for the results. For these five minutes, her hands were clasped together and shivering. While calling out to the gods for help, she even almost knelt down. Why was her life so dramatic? She could actually be pregnant?

What a huge joke this was.
