Chapter 198: Chapter 198 Abort the child!

Momo was fiddling with Lego bricks and said lightly, “Don’t tell me there’s an affair.”

Han blinked, confused, “What’s an affair?”

Momo said, “You’re still young, you wouldn’t understand.”

Han looked blankly at Lin Qi.

It would be one thing if it were someone else saying this, but this guy was the same age as him.

Lin Qi tried to suppress a laugh, “Han, just ignore him.”

Momo sometimes says things that don’t match his age. What do normal kids know about affairs?

…

Huo Tingdong parked his car under an apartment building.

New City Apartment.

After returning to the country, Shuyan had rented an apartment here.

The apartment looked somewhat dated, built about ten years ago without segregated pedestrian and vehicle traffic, no underground parking, and haphazardly painted parking spaces on the ground.

The location was average; apart from convenient transportation near a subway line, the only advantage was the cheap rent.

Cheap as it was, the rent started at 8000 a month.

Huo Tingdong parked the car below the building, passers-by occasionally turning their heads to look.

“Bentley Continental GT…”

“That’s a luxury car only the rich can afford!”

…

Huo Tingdong entered the elevator hall. As the elevator went down, he glanced at the ads posted beside the elevator; the originally white walls were stained with various dirty shoe prints and grime, looking dirty and disorderly under the flickering lights, floating with indistinct dust.

His germaphobia kicked in; he tucked his hands into his trouser pockets, hung his head, and dared not to breathe too deeply.

Upon entering the elevator, he pressed the button for the 20th floor.

After reaching the floor, Huo Tingdong found the door number and rang the doorbell, but heard no sound.

The doorbell was broken.

Huo Tingdong knocked on the door lightly, and soon heard Shuyan’s voice from inside.

“Who is it?”

Huo Tingdong’s adam’s apple moved as he replied, “It’s me.”

“Tingdong…?”

After a while, Shuyan opened the door, her face slightly astonished.

Huo Tingdong looked inside the door, seemingly lost.

Having not seen her in several months, Shuyan’s face seemed slightly changed, her hair was cut a bit shorter, casually tied at the back with a hair band, wearing a loose dress, looking very much pregnant.

Shuyan showed a surprised expression, “Why are you here?”

Huo Tingdong said, “May I come in?”

His gaze suddenly fell on her slightly protruding belly; Shuyan’s belly was slightly bulging, evidently looking like she was pregnant.

Huo Tingdong narrowed his eyes but didn’t ask further.

Shuyan’s face looked a bit awkward, clearly unprepared for his visit.

Huo Tingdong raised his eyebrows, “Is it inconvenient?”

Was there someone else inside?

Shuyan hurriedly said, “No, I live alone. I just didn’t expect you to come. Please come in.”

She opened the door wider to let him pass.

Huo Tingdong stepped inside.

Shuyan said, “The floor hasn’t been mopped; just come in as it is.”

“Okay.”

Huo Tingdong walked in.

The whole apartment wasn’t big, a two-bedroom, two-hall layout, tidily organized even though the furniture was somewhat old, it was very clean.

Huo Tingdong sat down on the sofa.

Shuyan walked to the tea cabinet and asked, “Coffee or tea?”

Huo Tingdong said, “Either is fine.”

Shuyan said, “Let’s have tea, the tea leaves are good, they’re new.”

While she was preparing tea, Huo Tingdong watched her back for a long while before finally speaking, “Why did you suddenly come back to the country?”

Shuyan replied, “I couldn’t get used to living abroad, so I came back.”

Huo Tingdong asked, “Don’t you have a house? Why are you staying here?”

Shuyan explained, “I sold the previous house, switched to a school district house, it’s not yet renovated.”

She brought over the brewed tea.

Huo Tingdong wasn’t in the mood to enjoy the tea she made, his eyes fixed on her bulging belly.

Seeing that he had noticed too, Shuyan looked somewhat uneasy, “What’s wrong?”

Huo Tingdong asked, “Are you pregnant?”

Shuyan gently nodded, sat down on the sofa, “A little over two months, almost three, I can register soon.”

Huo Tingdong looked puzzled, “Whose is it?”

She got pregnant so suddenly, and unexpectedly, he had to ask.

Shuyan smiled, “Who the father is isn’t important, what’s important is that I’m the mother.”

Huo Tingdong was a bit angry, “How can that not be important? It’s very important. How did you suddenly get pregnant?”

Shuyan tentatively asked, “Are you concerned about me?”

Huo Tingdong was momentarily speechless.

He held the tea cup, sipping lightly after a long pause, then said, “Before your brother died, he entrusted you to me, I promised him I would take good care of you. Now, what’s this? Pregnant before marriage, suddenly pregnant, who is the father, can’t you say?”

Shuyan countered, “Does it matter who the father is? No matter who the father is, I will give birth to this child.”

Huo Tingdong’s face was cold, disappointment in his eyes, “So, you don’t want to be honest with me?”

Shuyan lowered her head, not wanting to speak.

Huo Tingdong asked, “Was it an accidental pregnancy, or…”

He suddenly felt he’d asked an utterly redundant question.

Did this even need to be thought over?

Besides accidental, there was no other possibility.

Shuyan said, “Tingdong, don’t worry, no one forced me. I got pregnant with this baby willingly. As for who the father really is, I’ll tell you when the baby is born.”

Huo Tingdong said, “Abort the baby.”

Shuyan’s face tensed, “Why?”

He was actually asking her to directly abort the baby!

Huo Tingdong continued, “You’re not married yet, you can’t even explain who the father is, what’s the point of having this baby?”

Shuyan’s face was half red, half pale, “I told you, it doesn’t matter who the father is, what matters is this is my baby, my own flesh and blood, I can’t possibly abort it!”

With that, she turned her head away, clearly resistant to Huo Tingdong’s words.

Huo Tingdong said, “Haven’t you thought about the future? What if once you have this child, that man doesn’t acknowledge it, what will you do then?”

He thought of Shuyan as a sister, thus her stubborn ignorance only seemed to him like she was bewitched.

Shuyan firmly said, “Then I’ll raise the child on my own. These days, single mothers are everywhere, if there’s no father to acknowledge him, my recognition is enough.”

Naturally, she couldn’t be honest with Huo Tingdong about whose child it really was in her belly.

Otherwise, he would have definitely forced her to abort the baby.

She had gone through so much trouble to get pregnant with this child, naturally, her plan was to try everything to keep it.

Huo Tingdong impatiently said, “Listen to me. You’re only a little over two months pregnant, abort it now while it’s less harmful to your body.”
