Chapter 154
Chapter 154: The Upgraded Runaway Pregnancy
Even after several years, talking about the past still made Li Zhao Yang feel sour inside, especially now that he knew there might have been a misunderstanding.
“We can talk about this later. Right now the important thing is to find Jing Zhu and our child as soon as possible.”
He straightened his collar, which had been messed up while dodging hits. For once he was being serious. He turned to Du Yu Xi.
“You just said An An found my child? How did she find him? Where did she find him? Where is the child now? And is the child’s mama with him?”
Listening to Li Zhao Yang fire off question after question, Du Yu Xi stayed calm. She could tell the one he cared about most was that last question.
“Ahem, I don’t know all the details either. I was shocked when she told me and only got the general idea. If you are really so anxious, I can call her now and ask again…”
“Okay, okay, okay, help your brother ask. If you can really find your sister-in-law and nephew for me, I will give you and An An a big red envelope.”
Du Yu Xi: “…” Sister-in-law and nephew already? Brother, are you not adapting a bit too fast?
Under the burning gazes of the Li family, Du Yu Xi dialed Du An Rao’s number.
By then, Du An Rao had already gone back to the main hall and was eating the unlucky apple she had dropped earlier.
The people in the room could not hear what she and Du Yu Xi were saying. Their mouths kept chatting, but their minds were not in it.
The moment Du An Rao’s phone rang, everyone looked over.
She thought they were all waiting for a callback from Qiu Ji Chen, so she explained awkwardly: “It is my sister. I will go upstairs to answer it.”
“No need, you can answer it here.”
“Yes, yes, no need to go upstairs.”
They had been scratching their heads all day because they could not get in on the Li family’s drama. Now that they finally saw a chance to eat some melon, there was no way they would let it slip.
Seeing that everyone insisted, Du An Rao could not keep arguing. She picked up the call.
As soon as the call connected, Du Yu Xi got straight to the point, asking for the kindergarten’s address, the child’s name, and which class he was in.
On these details, Du An Rao actually knew less than Fifth Aunt’s family, so she had to ask second cousin-in-law right there.
Second cousin-in-law glanced at her own daughter: “Xiu Xiu, do you know which class Brother Yi Heng is in?”
“Of course. Brother Yi Heng is in the Little Sunflower Class next door. He sits by the window. Every time class is over and we call him, he comes out to play with us.”
Second cousin-in-law: “…” She really knew a lot.
Second cousin: “…” His precious daughter already knew how to ask handsome boys out to play at such a young age. Was this what they meant by “daughters are not yours once they grow up”?
No, it must be that little fox outside who took the initiative to hook her in. This Li Yi Heng kid needed special attention from now on!
Du An Rao passed the little girl’s words to Du Yu Xi exactly, and then added: “Li Yi Heng’s mother is probably raising him alone. She usually picks him up and drops him off by herself, and sometimes she even delivers food on the side.”
“Delivers food?” Du Yu Xi was surprised too.
“Yeah. By the way, did you tell cousin about this already? He should have some idea now, right?”
Without thinking, Du Yu Xi glanced at Li Zhao Yang not far away, his face full of worry. She said with some dislike: “Don’t mention it. My cousin is a total blockhead. He still cannot figure out how this child even came to be. When he talks about the past, he stutters and makes no sense. I am afraid this child and the child’s mother are both a huge mess in his heart.”
Du An Rao pouted and nodded in agreement.
[Isn’t it just one big mess?]
Everyone in the living room pricked up their ears at the same time, afraid to miss even the slightest clue.
This first love of Li Zhao Yang’s was called Lv Jing Zhu. Simply put, their story was a plus-size version of Du Hong Yun and her husband’s.
The young couple had been getting along well and their feelings were stable. Then someone just had to jump out and cause trouble.
The people who had their eyes on Li Zhao Yang and the ones who liked Lv Jing Zhu joined forces. They used a group dinner as an excuse to get both of them drunk and took them away separately. But something went wrong halfway through. In the end, it was still the two who were meant to be together who ended up sleeping together.
Their luck was bad though. After they slept together, something urgent happened at Lv Jing Zhu’s home and she got a call. She left in a hurry, and one of the schemers who had been waiting outside took advantage of that.
When Li Zhao Yang woke up, he found a strange woman lying beside him. He thought the person he had slept with the night before was her, and that he had done something wrong while drunk and betrayed Lv Jing Zhu.
Real love and responsibility left him stuck. On top of that, the two schemers stirred things up in the middle. Very soon, Lv Jing Zhu found out about him and that woman and misunderstood everything.
Li Zhao Yang believed that the person he had slept with that night was the strange woman. Lv Jing Zhu, on the other hand, thought he was two-timing her, like a walking teddy bear, with her in the first half of the night and another woman in the second half.
Because of her parents’ messy relationship, this Miss Lu had always stayed far away from two-faced scumbags. She had thought Li Zhao Yang was an exception. She did not expect she had given her heart to the wrong person. Add in a certain two-faced childhood friend adding fuel to the fire, and she decided to break up with Li Zhao Yang for good and cut all ties.
Li Zhao Yang had wanted to save the relationship, but that woman misled him. He believed he had really done something wrong to Lv Jing Zhu and felt too ashamed to face her.
Seeing how strongly she refused to see him, he could only accept the breakup with pain and watch her from afar instead.
If that woman had not gotten too full of herself later and slipped up while gossiping with her best friend, he never would have realized he had fallen into someone’s trap from the start.
Once he learned the truth, he was overjoyed. He rushed back to school to explain everything to Lv Jing Zhu, only to find that she had already disappeared. She did not even show up for graduation.
It was like she had vanished into thin air. No matter how hard he tried to search, he could not find any trace of her.
What he did not know was that the reason Lv Jing Zhu disappeared so completely was because that two-faced childhood friend who had a crush on her had quietly erased her tracks from behind the scenes.
Because of that, the two of them missed each other for several years. By the time they met again, their child was already in kindergarten.
After straightening out their love story and hatred, Du An Rao could not help complaining.
[As the saying goes, if you swing the hoe well enough, there is no corner you cannot dig up. No matter how deeply in love the Li family cousin and his white moonlight first love were, they still got torn apart by others, right? But really, you two got drunk and slept together, yet the girl woke up first and left, while the guy did not notice anything and did not even realize the person beside him had changed. I just want to ask one thing, Cousin Li, are you maybe not very good as a man?!]
Everyone: “???”
Seriously… that is the point you focus on?
