Chapter 66 Did He Do Something Wrong?
Chapter Sixty-Six: Did He Do Something Wrong?
She should have picked up some pregnancy tests when she went to the clinic to get her medication.
Better safe than sorry, she decided to go back to the clinic and ask the female doctor for some pregnancy test strips.
Holding the bottle in my hand, just as I was about to return to the infirmary, a dark figure suddenly appeared in front of me.
Yue Yirou was so frightened she almost screamed, but upon closer inspection, she realized it was a bodyguard, not Yan Ye.
"Miss Yue, did I frighten you? I'm so sorry," the bodyguard apologized to her.
"No, it's okay."
Yue Yirou shook her head, still shaken, and then tried to walk past the bodyguard to return to the infirmary to get the pregnancy test, but the bodyguard suddenly handed her a ring.
"..." Yue Yirou looked at the ring and then at the bodyguard, her face full of astonishment.
"Miss Yue, please don't misunderstand. This is something Young Master Lu Tingyun asked me to give to you."
Tingyun?
Why did Tingyun give her the ring?
Does he still want to continue fighting Yan Ye?
"Aren't you from Starry Night Pavilion? How come you are..."
“Miss Yue, although I am a member of Starry Night Pavilion, I cannot condone the young master's actions. Furthermore, I was moved by the genuine affection between you and Young Master Lu, which is why I helped Young Master Lu pass this ring to you. Miss Yue, you wouldn't tell the young master, would you?”
"No, of course not," Yue Yirou assured.
It was rare for someone in Xingye Pavilion to be willing to help her and Tingyun. She was so grateful that she would never expose him to Yan Ye.
“I knew Miss Yue wouldn’t do that. Then please accept this ring from Young Master Lu.”
The bodyguard then placed the ring into Yue Yirou's hand, the one that wasn't holding the bottle.
"Young Master Lu said that there is a secret hidden in this ring. I guess it is what Young Master Lu wants to say to Miss Yue. Young Master Lu is really very caring towards Miss Yue, which is very touching."
After saying this, the bodyguard disappeared into the darkness in the blink of an eye.
Yue Yirou stood there, stunned, holding the birth control pill in one hand and the ring in the other.
I don't know how much time passed before I came to my senses.
He opened his palm and looked at the diamond ring that sparkled in the night with a complicated expression.
Is Tingyun proposing to her?
What should she do?
Tingyun, why are you so foolish?
Since she had been out for quite some time and was worried that Yan Ye would be looking for her everywhere, she didn't go back to the clinic to get a pregnancy test. Instead, she unscrewed the bottle containing birth control pills, put the ring inside, and returned to the villa with mixed feelings.
When she returned to the fountain, she immediately saw Yan Ye pacing back and forth in the hall, looking agitated.
She knew he was waiting for her, or more accurately, waiting for her to sleep with him.
She stopped and silently opened the bottle in her hand. When her gaze fell upon the sparkling ring inside again, she felt an indescribable sadness.
Birth control pills, a ring from a loved one...
She thought that probably very few people in the world could understand this feeling.
After letting out a deep sigh, she poured out a capsule of birth control pills and put it in her mouth.
Then he screwed on the cap, held the bottle in his hand, hesitated for a moment, and continued walking with a blank expression.
Just as she reached the steps, Yan Ye rushed out of the hall and hugged her tightly.
"Yi Rou, you're finally back! I've missed you so much I'm going crazy."
Yue Yirou ignored him, letting him hug her expressionlessly, while tightly gripping the bottle in her hand.
The bottle wasn't big, but her hand wasn't big either; even holding it in her palm, she could still clearly see that it was a bottle.
If he finds out, can she hide it from him?
Yan Ye didn't care much about Yue Yirou's indifference. After all, she always had the same expressionless face towards him, and he had gotten used to her indifference.
He was content as long as she was still in the Starry Night Pavilion, as long as she knew she could return to this room.
"Are you hungry? Come on, I'll take you to dinner." Yan Ye hugged her tightly around the waist and led her into the house.
Yan Ye's attention was focused on her face, and he didn't notice the bottle she was clutching tightly in her hand. Yue Yirou secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Back in the hall, as she passed a vase on a table, Yue Yirou casually hid the vase she was holding behind it.
The living room was still deserted, with no servants or bodyguards in sight. She guessed that Xue Tao had told Yan Ye about bringing Ye Bao down for dinner and play today, and Yan Ye had agreed to his arrangement, so he simply didn't send any servants or bodyguards into the house.
That's good, at least it will make her feel more comfortable.
Dinner was already on the table, and Xue Tao was serving them soup.
Since no servants were brought in, these tasks naturally fell to Xue Tao.
But Xue Tao didn't complain or seem unhappy; on the contrary, he had a faint smile on his face.
"Miss Yue, you're finally back. If you hadn't come back, I think the young master would have gone out looking for you."
Xue Tao glanced at Yue Yirou while scooping soup from his spoon, and said with a smile.
"Alright, Xue Tao, this is none of your business. Go find a corner to cool off." Yan Ye was annoyed that Xue Tao was disturbing his and Yue Yirou's time together.
Having the servants and bodyguards stationed outside feels quite nice; it almost feels like home.
"Yes, young master. Enjoy your meal with Miss Yue."
With a smile, Xue Tao placed the bowl of soup on the table and then turned to find a corner to cool off.
"Xue Tao seems especially happy today, I don't know what medicine he took."
Watching Xue Tao's departing figure, Yan Ye couldn't help but mutter to himself.
Yue Yirou didn't care about any of that. With the birth control capsule still in her mouth, she didn't wait for Yan Ye to sit down and start eating. Instead, she picked up a bowl of soup and drank it while still standing, swallowing the capsule.
During the meal, Yan Ye didn't hug her. Instead, he sat down next to her and occasionally put food on her plate. She didn't refuse and ate it all, but her expression remained indifferent.
Throughout the meal, she didn't speak a word. When Yan Ye asked her questions, she would only occasionally give a faint response, a monotonous "hmm" or "oh."
Yan Ye initially tried his best to find topics to talk about with Yue Yirou, but after seeing her indifferent reaction, he gradually shut up and ate his food in silence, though he would still occasionally put some food on her plate.
After dinner, Yue Yirou sat quietly in her chair, waiting for Yan Ye to carry her back to her room as he always had. But after waiting for a while, Yan Ye remained quietly in his chair, watching her silently, seemingly not intending to do so.
I don't want anything better.
Yue Yirou stood up from her chair without saying a word or even glancing at Yan Ye. She left her seat, walked into the lobby, fiddled with the flowers in the vase for a moment, then placed her hands in front of her and headed for the elevator.
Yan Ye remained seated in the restaurant, his gaze fixed on that indifferent figure. The moment the elevator doors closed completely, a flash of intense pain crossed his eyes.
No matter what he did, he couldn't catch her eye.
Did he do something wrong?
Why be so cold to him?
He had endured it for so long. When they were in bed, he would say that he would sleep with her until she questioned her existence, but he only did it twice.
He wanted to see her smile at him, he wanted her to act coquettishly towards him, even if it was intentional to achieve his goal.
He still wanted to hear her call him Ye tenderly, wanted her to have a child for him, and wanted to build a home with her.
Seeing the pain in Yan Ye's eyes, Xue Tao stepped out from the corner, holding his phone in his hand.
"Young Master, I took some photos and videos about you and Miss Yue. I'm sure you'll be very happy to see them."
As Xue Tao spoke, he opened his phone's photo album and handed the phone to Yan Ye.
