The man’s exquiste dressing and noble air made her feel a sense of unfamiliarity and distance.
She knew that he had the ability to find out the date of her getting pregnant, but she could not admit that the child was his.
This was the lifeline she wanted to depend on and the hope of her life.
“Mr Ye, after you left, I came to work in Wen City. I was not in a good mood at that time and got drunk in a bar and had a one night stand with a man.”
Ye Qing narrowed his dark and slender eyes and his tall body came close to Gu Meng.
“Which man?”
Faced with his powerful and intimidating oppressiveness, Gu Meng could only step back. Her body was pressed against the door and Ye Qing stood only a step away from her, putting his big hand on top of her head as he looked down at her.
Gu Meng’s eyes fell onto his chest. The first two buttons of his white shirt were unbuttoned, revealing his exquisite collarbones. The fitted fabric outlined his straight back and his strong, broad shoulders. His deep, dark eyes were staring fixedly at her, making her feel flustered.
Gu Meng’s hands clenched into fists, her fingers digging into her palms. She felt a slight pain and her nose was filled with his unique scent mixed with the faint smell of tobacco and cologne… Her mind was in a mess, but she did not flinch or show any weakness.
She locked eyes with him. “It’s none of Mr Ye’s business which man it was. When we were in the fishing village, we said that we would not contact each other again. My private affairs have nothing to do with you. Mr Ye, please abide by our agreement!”
Ye Qing looked at Gu Meng’s thin yet charming face and frowned slightly. “The premise of not contacting each other is you are not pregnant with my child!”
“I said that it’s not your child. How can I make you believe me?”
Ye Qing held Gu Meng’s wrist that was about to push him and his well-defined face cae close to her, his dark eyes becoming sharp. “Tell me who was the man you slept with. I’ll go and ask him myself.”
Gu Meng did not expect him to be so persistent and said with a frown, “Do you think I will have the contact information of a man I had a one night stand with?”
“Ha.” Ye Qing laughed. “You were interested in other men after sleeping with me?”
Gu Meng could not help rolling her eyes in her heart. Although he had the ability to be confident, he was really too arrogant!
“Mr Ye, if you must know, the man who had a one night stand with me had better skills than you.”
Ye Qing’s handsome face darkened in an instant.
His hand that was holding Gu Meng’s wrist tightened and he looked unhappy. “Gu Meng, I’ll ask you for the last time. Whose child is it?”
Before Gu Meng could say anything, an arrogant male voice sounded. “It’s mine!”
Ye Qing looked back and saw a young man in a striped polo shirt with both hands in his pants pockets walking over.
“Brother Fu.” Gu Meng seemed to have seen her savior when she saw Fu Cheng. Pulling her hand out of Ye Qing’s palm, she went to Fu Cheng’s side.
Fu Cheng slung his arm around Gu Meng’s slender shoulders and he had no trace of fear when faced with Ye Qing’s dark and sharp eyes. “Mister, no matter who you are, don’t even think about bullying my woman in my territory.”
As Fu Cheng stared at Ye Qing, he found that the man looked familiar. After thinking about it carefully, his eyebrows raised. “So you’re that heartless Mr Ah Dai. Why, you abandoned Xiaomeng and now you’re back to pester her?”
Ye Qing had no impression of this Fu Cheng in front of him, but he must have known him in the fishing village.
“Mr Ah Dai, to be honest, I’ve liked Xiaomeng for a long time, but she used to like you and I didn’t get her heart. You abandoned her and I finally got the chance to take her to bed and make her pregnant with my child. So, please leave and don’t disturb my life with Xiaomeng again!”
Ye Qing’s lips pursed into a straight line and he looked at Gu Meng with dark eyes. “You’re together with him?”
Gu Meng did not dare to meet Ye Qing’s murderous eyes that seemed to be shooting out fire. She did not understand. He did not like her, so why was he so angry? Shouldn’t he be happy that she was with another man and would not bother him anymore?
Fu Cheng pressed Gu Meng’s head into his chest and their bodies were intimately close. Gu Meng was grateful for Fu Cheng’s help. Although he usually ridiculed her, he was very righteous at this moment.
Gu Meng bit her lip and said, “Yes, I’m with Brother Fu.”
Hearing this, Ye Qing left with a dark expression. It was only after Ye Qing’s figure disappeared that Fu Cheng released his hold on Gu Meng’s head. “Why do I find that Mr Ah Dai looks like our King?”
Although Ye Qing and Mu Sihan were twins with similar facial features, after Ye Qing had regained his memories, he had surgery on his scarred face and in addition, he was thinner than Mu Sihan, so they did not look exactly the same.
Gu Meng looked at the direction where Ye Qing had disappeared to. “Because he is the King’s elder brother.”
“F*ck!” Fu Cheng cursed and took out his phone to search on the Internet. As expected, there were pictures of the King’s brother, Ye Qing. “Ah Dai is the Third Prince?”
Gu Meng hummed in reply.
Fu Cheng knocked Gu Meng’s head. “Why didn’t you tell me in advance?”
Gu Meng saw Fu Cheng’s guarded expression and could not help bursting into laughter. “You’re afraid?”
Fu Cheng raised his chin. “Who’s afraid? Can he force an ordinary girl just because he’s the Third Prince? As long as you don’t want to, no one can force you.”
Gu Meng looked at Fu Cheng and said boldly, “Boss, you’re not in love with me, aren’t you?”
As soon as her voice fell, her forehead was flicked at by the man. Fu Cheng glared at Gu Meng with an awkward expression. “Why would I fall in love with a woman like you who has gotten pregnant before getting married?”
Rubbing her forehead, Gu Meng hummed in response.
After Gu Meng entered the house. Fu Cheng ruffled his short hair and followed in impatiently, “Silly girl, what are you thinking? He’s the Third Prince. You really don’t want to tell him that you’re pregnant with his child? Maybe you can be a phoenix and become the Third Princess Consort!”
Ever since knowing the identity of Ye Qing, Gu Meng knew in her heart that they would not have any ending. Even if he remembered her, he would not be able to be with her because of the huge difference in their status.
After getting pregnant, her mind was on her child and work and she seldom thought of him. If she had some more time, she felt she might be able to put him behind her.
“Whoever wants to be Third Princess Consort can go and do so. I think I’m living well now.”
Fu Cheng looked helplessly at Gu Meng. “I used to think you were foolish in the fishing village and I was right. You’re so faithful to a man, but in the end, what did you get? He had regained his identity, and did not even give you any status after sleeping with you.”
