Chapter 364 Striving to Reassure Her
“Yi Rou, I don’t think it’s necessary, because I truly believe the child is mine, and I will never do anything to hurt our child, such as forcing you to have an abortion. However, since you’re still worried, fine, we’ll do another prenatal paternity test tomorrow.”
Yue Yirou stared at him blankly. His expression revealed a hint of helplessness. Could it be that she was overthinking things?
But just because she knew the birth control pills were fake, she felt uneasy about believing her.
After all, no matter what she said or how many tears she shed, he refused to believe her.
Moreover, the paternity test report was tampered with that time, and the doctor personally told him that he was not the child's father. She couldn't believe it, and she vowed that he would not overthink things or get stuck in a rut when he encountered certain situations in the future.
Seeing her furrowed brows, Yan Ye raised his hand and gently smoothed out her frown.
"Yi Rou, I was wrong before. I tended to overthink things. I know I was wrong. Please don't follow in my footsteps, okay?"
He then realized how much pressure and pain he had caused her when he had been overthinking things.
Yue Yirou: "..." She didn't want to overthink things, but he had been so suspicious in the past and liked to get stuck on things. How could she not overthink things?
She didn't struggle to break free from his embrace; she was willing to sit obediently in his lap and chat with him calmly. She had already done enough.
"After I get the prenatal paternity test done tomorrow, I won't overthink it."
"You said it yourself." Yan Ye reached out and tapped her nose. "After the test, if you still dare to have wild thoughts and refuse to stay by my side and focus on your pregnancy, I will..."
"What do you do?"
"I just..." Yan Ye lowered his head and covered Yue Yirou's mouth, showing him with his actions what he would do.
It had been so long since she had been kissed like this by him. Yue Yirou reached out and wrapped her arms around Yan Ye's neck, lost in his long-awaited passionate kiss.
She really missed his kisses.
It wasn't until Yan Ye laid her down on the big bed that Yue Yirou regained some of her senses from Yan Ye's passionate kiss.
She reached out to stop his hands from groping her: "No."
Yan Ye moved his hand to her lower abdomen and gently stroked it. He buried his face in the crook of her neck and breathed softly, "Yi Rou, after you give birth to the child, you have to make it up to me properly."
"..." Yue Yirou's face immediately became even hotter, but she still gently stroked Yan Ye's head and nodded lightly: "Mm."
Feeling a little embarrassed, she quickly changed the subject: "By the way, when did you get back?"
His hair was rather stiff, the same as the hair she found on the pillow and swept out from under the bed that day, so it was definitely his. But when exactly did he come back?
Did everyone else know he was back, and she was the only one kept in the dark?
Yan Ye remained silent for a long time before answering her: "Half a month ago."
"What did you say?" Yue Yirou lifted the head buried in her neck and shoulders with both hands, looking at the person in disbelief. "You came back half a month ago? Then where have you been hiding for the past half month?"
He'd been back for half a month, and he'd still sneaked into her room every night. She hadn't even noticed the strand of hair on her pillow. How could she be so stupid, or sleep so soundly?
Fortunately, it was him.
But wait, that's not right. Her sleep has always been quite light, especially during the time he wasn't around. How could she suddenly be sleeping so soundly?
Yan Ye smoothed a strand of hair from her forehead and smiled faintly, "I'm hiding in the next room." He added, "And under this bed," but didn't say the last part aloud.
"..." It was hidden in the next room, and she didn't even notice.
"Also, I noticed you weren't sleeping well, so I asked Aunt Wu to add some sleep-aiding ingredients to the soup." Yan Ye suddenly stopped smiling, stared at her, and said seriously, "Yi Rou, you really can't keep overthinking. For the sake of our child, you have to relax."
Yue Yirou lowered her eyes and remained silent.
“I came back the day you, Aunt Wu, and Gao Liang went out to buy baby supplies,” Yan Ye suddenly said.
Yue Yirou raised her eyes and looked at him with surprise. No wonder she felt that Aunt Wu and Gao Liang's smiles were a little strange that day. No wonder she felt someone was looking at her with burning eyes as soon as she stepped out of the store.
So, he was the pervert.
Yan Ye nodded.
Yue Yirou: "..."
In fact, Yan Ye's admission that he was watching her from the car was not an admission that he was a pervert. Of course, Yue Yirou knew this too. However, she had just finished thinking that sentence when he nodded, which made her feel a little speechless and also wanted to laugh.
But she held back.
Yan Ye didn't pay attention to any of that. He was thinking about how to put her at ease, how to make her trust him, and how to reassure her so she could focus on her pregnancy.
He was trying to reassure her.
"Yi Rou, do you know why I'm hiding?"
Yue Yirou looked up, neither shaking her head nor speaking, but she vaguely guessed why.
"Because I was worried that I would scare you, I was worried that you wouldn't believe me, I was worried that you would be so agitated that you would want to run away as soon as you saw me. Yi Rou, I really believe that the child is mine, and I really, really won't force you to have an abortion anymore. Can you believe me?"
He was terrified that she wouldn't believe him, terrified that she would try to escape from him, and terrified that she, with her big belly, would trip or suffer other mishaps while trying to escape.
Yan Ye now hates herself intensely. If he hadn't been so neurotic in the past, she wouldn't have distrusted him.
Yue Yirou stared at him blankly. For a moment, she wanted to believe him, but when she thought of his past, she forced herself to shake off the idea.
She couldn't believe it, she really couldn't believe it.
"Alright, Yan Ye, didn't I tell you? I won't overthink things after we do the prenatal paternity test tomorrow. It's late, let's rest."
Yan Ye stared at her, and after a long silence, kissed her lips: "Goodnight!"
After that, he lay down on his side beside her, and gently placed a large hand on her lower abdomen.
Feeling his gentleness, Yue Yirou's heart trembled slightly, but she quickly regained her composure and closed her eyes to sleep.
She felt uneasy; she was even worried that Yan Ye might suddenly change his mind and take her to have an abortion before the prenatal paternity test could be done.
But because she was too tired, or perhaps because she was leaning against Yan Ye's chest, she fell asleep quickly despite feeling restless and uneasy.
Yan Ye was still awake, looking at her gentle sleeping face, and sighed softly.
Several times, he wanted to pick her up from the bed, fly back to China, and imprison her until the child was born safely, but he restrained himself in the end.
He can't do that. If he does, he'll lose her trust even more, and she'll desperately try to escape from him.
Yi Rou, you said you'd trust me after the prenatal paternity test, you have to keep your word.
