Ye Xiaomeng was taken aback by Shu Pan’s words and took a moment before responding, “No, everything’s the same as before.”

From Xiaomeng’s hesitant reply, Shu Pan could guess what the problem might be. She then thought back to the scene at the restaurant the other day and couldn’t help but wonder, did Xiaomeng feel upset because she thought He Ming was seeing someone else?

But He Ming’s behavior didn’t seem like that of someone cheating, not with how worried he appeared.

“Sometimes what you see isn’t necessarily the truth. When you see something, you must gather the courage to ask about it. Don’t be afraid, and don’t keep it to yourself, or you’ll only make yourself miserable,” Shu Pan didn’t know the exact reason behind Xiaomeng’s distress, but she wanted to address it early on.

“Since when did you become a love expert?” Xiaomeng chuckled, grateful to have a bestie like Shu Pan.

“Nonsense. Call He Ming back soon; he’s really worried,” Shu Pan felt it was fair to give He Ming a chance, especially since he’s the father of the child. Besides, things might not be as they seem.

“Okay, I’ll head back soon too,” Xiaomeng felt it was enough; she had been a bit stubborn. It was time to face reality.

After hanging up, Xiaomeng called He Ming.

“Mengmeng, you finally called me back! Are you okay? Where have you been?” He Ming was truly frantic, his words now jumbled.

“He Ming, don’t worry, I’m fine. I’ve been at the beach for two days. I’ll be back tomorrow, and there’s something I need to tell you when I get back,” Xiaomeng comforted him, eager to share the news of her pregnancy with him.

She couldn’t wait to see his silly reaction.

After spending two days clearing her mind, Xiaomeng felt much calmer now.

She also figured out a lot of things. Happiness, she realized, had to be actively pursued. If she continued to be pessimistic, He Ming would soon grow tired of her.

“Okay…” He Ming felt nervous hearing Xiaomeng’s serious tone about wanting to talk when she returned. What could it be? Was she going to break up with him?

Phew, no way!!

He Ming’s heart was fragile now, unable to handle any more shocks. These past two days, Xiaomeng had really scared him.

“I’ll hang up then,” she said. After all, she’d be back tomorrow.

“I’ll drive over to pick you up tomorrow,” He Ming still couldn’t shake off his concern.

“No need, it’s convenient for me to catch a ride here. Just wait for me at home,” Xiaomeng flatly refused. She was tired of running around.

Finally, He Ming’s heart settled down.

Thankfully, nothing bad had happened. But when she got back, he still needed to talk to her seriously. She must inform him before going out for fun. She shouldn’t make it seem like she was running away from home, worrying everyone.

With her phone in hand, Xiaomeng gazed at the sea outside, her thoughts spinning.

Her happiness, her husband, she would protect with all her might. No one had the right to make her give up.

The next day, Xiaomeng checked out of the hotel early, packed her bags, and set off for home.

As soon as she reached the lobby, she saw He Ming standing at the entrance, probably waiting for a while.

“Why are you standing here?” Xiaomeng asked, puzzled. She hadn’t told him when exactly she’d be back.

He couldn’t have been standing here like a fool all morning.

It seemed like he had been waiting for a long time.

Suddenly, she felt a pang of guilt.

Seeing her asking so earnestly, with concern in her eyes, He Ming noticed that Xiaomeng, who had returned from her break, seemed a bit different from usual. But he couldn’t quite put his finger on what exactly was different.
