In January in Shanghai, the temperature is still very low.
It just snowed last night.
Tang Xi stood at the door of the coffee shop, shivering from the cold.
Not long after, a familiar figure got off the off-road vehicle and walked towards her.
Before he even came close, Tang Xi's heart began to beat violently. After half a year, he seemed to be getting more and more high-spirited.
Her dark eyes didn't move away for a second, staring straight at the other person.
Compared with her who seems to be full of hope and unresolved feelings, the man is much more indifferent.
He walked up to Tang Xi, his eyes just passed over her face for a moment and then fell on her slightly bulging belly.
Then, he frowned and said softly, "Go in."
This tone was so cold that Tang Xi's heart clenched.
"Well..." She nodded and responded as obediently as usual.
The two of them sat down in a corner near the window.
After sitting down, the man called the waiter and asked him to bring Tang Xi a cup of hot water.
"Cheng Yi, I came here mainly to ask you, how to deal with this matter?" After the waiter left, Tang Xi hesitated, but chose to get straight to the point.
She rarely called him by his first name.
"After the appraisal, as long as the child is mine, I will naturally be responsible. Of course, I am only responsible for him/her." Cheng Yi did not hesitate.
After saying that, he pursed his thin lips slightly, and his clear face was filled with a layer of emotions that were difficult to distinguish between joy and anger.
Tang Xi's fingers curled up slightly, and she asked, "What kind of responsibility do you mean by responsibility?"
"Before the child is born, you don't have to worry about your daily life, I will arrange it. After the child is born, I will give you a sum of money. You are free to return to Nanyang or Suicheng if you want, as long as you cannot stay in Shanghai." Cheng Yi paused, and then added, "If you want to return to Suicheng, I can help you build connections. As for the outcome, it depends on your personal ability."
He is sober and calm.
In the end, the two reached an agreement, and Tang Xi had no reason not to agree.
After weighing the pros and cons, she knew that this was the best outcome for her.
On the same day, Cheng Yi arranged for her to go to the hospital for testing.
After the test, he handed her to his assistant and left.
"Ms. Tang, I'll take you back to the hotel first. When the results come out, I'll make arrangements for your accommodation." As soon as they got in the car, the assistant said to Tang Xi.
His words were relatively tactful, but Tang Xi understood the meaning.
"Well..." She responded, then turned her head towards the window.
This was her first time to Shanghai, a place she had only heard of from Cheng Yi before.
He doesn't talk much. Only when his love is strong, he will occasionally chat with her.
Although it was just a few words, Tang Xi always listened very carefully. She is still deeply impressed by every word she thinks about.
I don’t know when it started to snow again outside.
Tang Xi's eyes were a little hollow. As she watched, hot heat surged in her eyes. She lowered her head as if to hide it, but the crystal thing still fell down like a dam.
After returning to the hotel, she felt deeply tired and got into the quilt.
It's not that she hadn't thought about Cheng Yi's attitude, nor that she hadn't expected it.
But actually facing it is another matter.
Although he didn't say a word of accusation or unpleasant words, Tang Xi knew that in his heart, she had become the person who was full of scheming against him.
For two whole days, she didn't go out.
Cheng Yi's call came on the morning of the third day.
"Pack your things and come down."
