Chapter 239
The couple continued strolling around the amusement park, with Feng Qingyi pulling Qin Yuchuan along to take many photos together.
"There's a photo printing booth up ahead. Let's go print a few pictures. Which ones do you think look good?" Feng Qingyi handed her phone to Qin Yuchuan, letting him choose. He spent a long time looking but couldn't decide on the best ones.
"Qingyi, I think they all look great!"
Feng Qingyi thought for a moment. "Then let's print them all out, a set for each of us to keep."
Qin Yuchuan nodded. "That sounds good."
After the photos were printed, Feng Qingyi gave Qin Yuchuan a set.
"These are for you. I'm going to put mine in my photo album. Come to think of it, this is the first time we've taken photos together!"
"If Qingyi enjoys it, we can take more in the future."
He wanted to preserve these beautiful memories with her too, and photos seemed like a nice way to do that. Looking back at them in the future would surely feel meaningful.
The couple didn't go on any more rides, just walked and chatted, talking about little things that had happened in their lives recently. Even though they were just casually strolling around, it was already quite late by the time they finished dinner and headed back.
At the villa, Nan Yue was eating takeout, with a strong unpleasant odor permeating the living room.
Feng Qingyi covered her nose as she walked in. "What are you eating? It smells awful!"
Nan Yue looked up at Feng Qingyi. "I'll eat whatever I want. It's none of your business."
If they hadn't ditched her, she wouldn't be in such a miserable state today. She had tried to hail a taxi for ages without success, then had to take the bus, only to get on the wrong one. After transferring to the subway and wandering around for hours, she finally made it back.
Qin Yuchuan said, "Miss Nan, this doesn't seem to be your home. I hope you can be more mindful of your behavior."
Nan Yue retorted, "You... I... I came specially to visit my cousins. I don't know why they all dislike me so much. You can't side with her just because she's your girlfriend."
"They were the ones who were unreasonable first. I came all this way to visit, and not only did they kick me out, but they've been targeting me at every turn. It's not fair to me."
"Miss Nan, you jest. Of course I should side with Qingyi since she's my girlfriend," Qin Yuchuan replied.
Feng Qingyi tugged on Qin Yuchuan's sleeve. "It's really too smelly here. Let's hurry upstairs."
Back in the room, Feng Qingyi asked, "You just said you'd side with me. Would you still side with me if I did something wrong?"
"That's a question worth considering. It would depend on the nature of the situation," Qin Yuchuan answered.
Feng Qingyi pressed, "What if it was something very serious?"
Qin Yuchuan replied, "In front of others, I would side with you regardless of whether you were right or wrong."
Feng Qingyi caught his implied meaning. "So you're saying you'd side with me in public, but settle accounts with me when we get home?"
"Is Qingyi so concerned about this because she's done something she shouldn't have?" Qin Yuchuan asked lazily.
Feng Qingyi plopped down on the sofa. "I was just asking hypothetically. Besides, what wrong could I possibly do?"
"Didn't you say you had work to take care of tonight? When are you planning to head back?"
Qin Yuchuan sat down next to Feng Qingyi. "Are you so eager to get rid of me?"
"I was just asking. You always misinterpret what I say," Feng Qingyi pouted.
Qin Yuchuan played with a strand of her hair. "Oh, misinterpret, do I?"
"Yes, I really do want you to stay with me all the time, but obviously you can't do that right now. I don't want to interfere with your work just to keep me company."
At first, she had been quite anxious about being with him. They were from different worlds, with different ideas and perspectives. She didn't know how they could make it work long-term.
But over these days, he had given her enough security, even promising that in the future he wouldn't make her live with him in Shengjing.
"That's a good idea." Going back like this would indeed attract attention. It was better to change.
Feng Qingyi said, "Then you change. I'll step out for a bit."
"We're already so close, Qingyi doesn't need to be shy. Besides, it's not like you haven't seen before," Qin Yuchuan remarked.
"...You've changed!" Feng Qingyi still pushed open the door and walked out.
...
A few days later, Feng Qingyi inexplicably received a call from Nan Yue's mother.
"Qingyi, I heard from Yue that you have a boyfriend now? And that you're pregnant before marriage, is that true?"
Feng Qingyi was stunned. She was pregnant? How come she didn't know about it herself?
"Aunt, don't make things up. Yes, I have a boyfriend, but I'm not pregnant."
Nan Yue's mother continued, "I know you don't want to admit it. After all, you young people care so much about face."
"Getting pregnant now is not good for your body. You should get rid of the baby soon. You're so young, how could you be so careless!"
"What kind of top university graduate are you, doing something like this? Aren't you breaking your grandparents' hearts?"
Feng Qingyi retorted, "I only call you 'aunt' out of respect for my grandparents. I'll say it one more time - I'm still in school and I'm not pregnant."
"Don't go around spreading rumors and worrying my grandparents. Otherwise, I'll throw your precious daughter out, and I've already done it once before."
"You've already done the deed, and now you won't even let people talk about it..."
Feng Qingyi didn't wait for her to finish before quickly hanging up and blocking her number.
Capital City, Recording Studio.
Feng Zhixing was accompanying Nan Yin as she recorded songs for her new album when he suddenly received a phone call in the break room.
Upon hearing the content of the call, Feng Zhixing's entire demeanor changed.
Seeing his sudden change in expression, Nan Yin asked, "Honey, who was that? What happened?"
Feng Zhixing replied, "My in-laws called to say Qingyi is pregnant."
"Qingyi is pregnant! Who told them that?" Nan Yin inquired.
Feng Zhixing said, "Apparently, it was your sister who told them."
"Qingyi is so far away from them, how could they possibly know about her pregnancy before we do? I bet it's just Nan Yue making things up and telling her mother again!" Nan Yin speculated.
Feng Zhixing responded, "We should go check on Qingyi and see if it's true."
"Go where? Do you think Qingyi is the kind of person who lacks discretion? You should trust your daughter; she wouldn't do something like this," Nan Yin argued.
Feng Zhixing countered, "Of course I trust my daughter, but I'm not so sure about that Qin Yuchuan. What if he forced himself on her? Our daughter might not be able to fend him off."
"We should hurry to Jing University to check. I won't be at ease until I see for myself!"
Nan Yin sighed, "If you want to go, go by yourself. I have work to do today."
Feng Zhixing suggested, "Then let's go together in the evening. I'll call Feng Qingci first to ask about it."
After the call, Feng Zhixing became even more worried. "Honey, I think there's a real possibility this is true. Qingci said they're sharing a room. If they weren't careful with protection, it wouldn't be surprising if something happened. We really should go check."
Nan Yin sighed again, "Alright, I'll go with you to take a look."
Although she felt that both Yuchuan and Qingyi were not the type to act recklessly, and that premarital pregnancy shouldn't happen to them, seeing her husband's concerned expression, she decided to go along to check things out.
