His confession was real and her pregnancy was also real.
Yet she didn’t believe him when he finally decided to tell the truth?
This was the most aggrieved day in his life!
“Bengbeng, I am not lying. You are really pregnant…”
“Enough!”
Tan Bengbeng stopped him and pushed his hands away.
She took a step back.
She frowned in disappointment.
“I can tolerate anything that you do as long as you do not harm Xiao Mumu. However, at times like this, you still want to tell me meaningless lies like this?”
“I am speaking the truth!”
“Then you were lying when you said that you had undergone a vasectomy?”
“…”
Qi Yan blinked his eyes in guilt. “It was not exactly lying, I saw that you were afraid and had to…”
Tan Bengbeng looked at him coldly. “What about now? You saw that I was afraid again and had to…”
“…”
“You are always like this, you only care about yourself. You don’t care about anything, how important it is, you treat everything like a joke. I cannot tell when you are serious or when you are joking. However, there is one thing that I am very sure of. I am Xiao Mumu’s secret guard and it is my duty to protect her. Now, she is in danger and I have to save her!”
Tan Bengbeng took a few steps back and wanted to leave.
“Is our child not more important that Nian Xiaomu?! What about me?” Qi Yan asked through his clenched teeth. “I can get people to go and rescue Nian Xiaomu now. You can just stay at home, I promise that I will bring her back safely…”
“Yes.” Tan Bengbeng’s soft reply made him pause in his words.
Qi Yan looked at her in shock.
Her cold gaze looked exactly like the first time he had seen her on the island.
Cold, distant and vigilant…
Qi Yan’s pupil shrank when he met her gaze.
He watched her lips move as she spoke clearly.
“Qi Yan, I am grateful that you saved my life, for Tang Yuansi’s illness and for Old Master. I am very grateful for everything. However, I am Xiao Mumu’s secret guard, I will never leave her. The first rule of being a secret guard is that no one is more important than your master, including my own life. As long as Xiao Mumu is okay, I don’t care about anything. If you cannot accept that, then don’t follow me anymore…”
Tan Bengbeng looked up at the crescent in the sky after saying that.
The bright moonlight shone on her red eyes and light reflected off the tears in her eyes.
She took a deep breath and walked out of the door.
“…”
Qi Yan was stunned.
He watched her leave.
Her words were replaying in his mind.
This was the first time she had spoken so much.
The moment he did, it was to break off all ties with him.
Was this his karma?
He had lived a carefree life for so long. This was the first time he was bound down by a woman.
He would give her his heart, but she didn’t want it.
She only had Nian Xiaomu in her mind. What was he?
She didn’t even care about their child…
Qi Yan clenched his fist.
He clenched it so hard that veins were popping up.
He clenched his teeth and forced himself to let it go.
When he came back to his mind, she had been gone for quite some time. He was about to run after her when a phone rang.
He looked at it and realized it was Tan Bengbeng’s phone.
