Chapter 387: Divorce and Marry Me

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

At that moment, the bedroom was deathly silent.

Gu Qingcheng observed the changes in Huo Sicheng’s expression.

She was disappointed.

In Huo Sicheng’s eyes, she clearly saw a flash of worry when he heard her say that Miss Li was pregnant.

He was worried about Miss Li in front of her.

Did he ever worry about her feelings?

She had been bothered by the matter with Miss Li, and had been holding back, waiting for his explanation about Miss Li.

Now, before he could clarify anything, there came the news of Miss Li’s pregnancy!

He was killing her love for him, making her love seem utterly foolish.

Huo Sicheng concealed the worry that appeared in his eyes. He saw how Gu Qingcheng’s beautiful, resentful, and angry eyes were fixed on him, as if she could skin and debone him at any moment.

He understood why she had hit him. The reason was Miss Li’s pregnancy.

“Qingcheng… ”

“Gu!” Gu Qingcheng sharply interrupted Huo Sicheng, “Gu Qingcheng!”

Huo Sicheng, seeing Gu Qingcheng so angry, looked pained.

But to call out Gu Qingcheng’s full name in such an atmosphere and situation, he found it impossible to speak.

“It’s not my child.” His voice was low and soft yet extremely firm.

Gu Qingcheng scoffed upon hearing this.

If Miss Li’s child wasn’t Huo Sicheng’s, then whose was it?

If Miss Li’s child wasn’t Huo Sicheng’s, why did she, in the dead of night, seek out Huo Sicheng instead of any other man?

Even more so, why did Miss Li insist on Huo Sicheng flying thousands of miles to France to accompany her? Why not find someone else?

Even though she and Huo Sicheng had a secret marriage, Huo Sicheng could have revealed his marital status to Miss Li. Miss Li, even if pregnant, should understand that they were a couple, and it was inappropriate to disturb them at night.

If Miss Li had waited until morning to ask Huo Sicheng to accompany her to France, it wouldn’t be a problem. But the fact that she urgently sought him out at night and repeatedly requested his company, made it obvious to anyone that there was something fishy between Huo Sicheng and Miss Li.

Moreover, was Miss Li orphaned and friendless? Couldn’t she find anyone else to accompany her and had to seek Huo Sicheng to travel across thousands of miles?

Huo Sicheng was lying to her!

The matter between Miss Li and Huo Sicheng was already a nightmare in her heart, unsettling her day and night.

Now, she didn’t need to address it anymore, as Miss Li’s pregnancy and her active pursuit of Huo Sicheng made everything clear to her.

If she hadn’t gone out to meet Huo Xuan and hadn’t learned from the butler about Miss Li contacting Huo Sicheng, she was certain that Huo Sicheng wouldn’t have told her about Miss Li’s pregnancy.

Regarding Miss Li, no matter how many times she asked him, he always remained silent.

He said Miss Li’s child wasn’t his because he knew she, Gu Qingcheng, was his wife. If he admitted in front of her that Miss Li’s child was his, she would immediately divorce him.

Now, as long as he kept denying it, she couldn’t do anything, after all, she didn’t even know what Miss Li looked like.

Her heart ached, the pain spreading throughout her body, making even breathing difficult.

But she had no way to deal with him. Hitting or scolding him was pointless. It was better to resolve this matter properly.

“Whether the child is yours or not doesn’t matter, let’s go, I’ll take you to the

airport.” She stood up and walked towards the door.

“It’s not my child, why should I go to France.” Huo Sicheng spoke firmly, “I can’t explain Miss Li’s matter to you right now, but I won’t go to France, and

I’m very sorry that Miss Li’s matter has upset you.”

Gu Qingcheng stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Huo Sicheng.

“I don’t need your apologies, nor do you need to explain anything about Miss Li to me.” She said meaningfully, “All I know is that Miss Li is pregnant and wants you to fly to France immediately to accompany her. She is a pregnant woman, and the first three months are critical. If she miscarries due to emotional agitation, I don’t want to bear the wicked blame for forcing a miscarriage.”

Seeing Gu Qingcheng urging him to go to France, Huo Sicheng’s emotions became tense. He opened his mouth as if to say something, then fell silent.

Gu Qingcheng was angry, but her anger had reached a point where she became calm.

Her heart still hurt.

But her shattered heart was numb to the pain.

“I’ll wait for you in the garage.” She opened the door and walked out, “If you’re not in the garage in half an hour, you’ll bear the consequences.”

Huo Sicheng watched Gu Qingcheng leave, his usually cool and collected expression now filled with anxiety.

Gu Qingcheng’s personality was such that she could do anything. When she said he would bear the consequences, he knew very well he couldn’t afford them.

After all, she had previously reminded him about the agreement they had signed. Their marriage was contingent on this agreement.

“Wait for me.” He pressed the button on his wheelchair to follow her, “I…”

His voice stopped abruptly, as Gu Qingcheng was staring at the butler at the door.

Gu Qingcheng’s eyes, sharp as knives, were fixed on the butler, “Did Miss Li call again to urge you?”

The butler, frightened, lowered his head and respectfully said, “Yes, Miss Li kept calling for the young master.”

“Shut up!” Huo Sicheng’s voice rose sharply.

Gu Qingcheng, hearing Huo Sicheng’s voice behind her, didn’t look at him but at the trembling butler.

“Butler, ignore him.” She asked the butler, “Tell me, what else did Miss Li say?”

Faced with Huo Sicheng’s angry rebuke, the butler dared not answer Gu Qingcheng’s question.

“What?” Gu Qingcheng looked at the butler, her voice sharp and authoritative, “Butler, you dare to disobey my order?”

The butler’s legs went weak, almost kneeling on the spot.

The young master told him to shut up.

The madam told him to answer.

He couldn’t disobey either, feeling helpless and caught in a dilemma. Gu Qingcheng raised her voice, sternly demanding, “Speak!”

Terrified, the butler could only respond to Gu Qingcheng: “Madam, Miss Li called for the young master, she said… she said the young master must immediately go to France to see her. She said if he doesn’t go, she’ll commit suicide, she… she…’

Gu Qingcheng’s face turned ashen, and she demanded harshly, “What else did she say?”

The butler replied, “Miss Li said that the young master, being married now, shouldn’t forget her, his old flame, and shouldn’t be so heartless towards her. She’s in great pain, she needs the young master, desperately needs him to be with her. Only if the young master arrives, she can be at peace. She hopes the young master will quickly go to France to see her.”

Gu Qingcheng laughed, her laugh turning into a sob as her nose tingled and her eyes welled up with tears.

So, Miss Li knew about Huo Sicheng’s marriage, yet still called him in the middle of the night, which was a direct insult to her.

Huo Sicheng said the child Miss Li was carrying wasn’t his, right?

If Miss Li’s child wasn’t his, then why would Miss Li say that he was heartless towards her just because he got married and had a wife?

This clearly meant that Miss Li was accusing Huo Sicheng of forgetting his lover now that he had a wife!

“Huo Sicheng….” she said, turning to look at Huo Sicheng behind her, still laughing, “You heard everything Miss Li said, do you still claim the child isn’t yours?”
