Chapter 1383: Realizing Her Feelings
Ye Qing stood in the yard and looked at Gu Meng’s room on the second floor for a while. It was hard to miss her drawing the curtains shut just now.
He had been busy with work recently and went for a visit abroad. He had just come back in the evening.
When he called the villa, Gu Meng did not answer his call, the servant did. Gu Meng was obedient every day, staying in the villa and did not go anywhere.
But he could feel her dissatisfaction with him.
Ye Qing did not intend to coax her, and he did not have the experience of coaxing women. Raising his long fingers, he loosened his tie slightly.
When he entered the villa, he took off his coat and the servant went forward to take it from him. As Ye Qing walked to the hall, he asked in a deep voice, “How is her appetite these days?”
“According to Your Highness’s orders, I have cooked the special dishes of the fishing village for her every day, and her appetite is better than before.”
Ye Qing nodded. “Her mood?”
“Miss Cen came in the afternoon and they chatted for a long time, so Miss Gu’s mood has improved a lot.”
Ye Qing glanced at the stairway.
He came but she did not come downstairs?
A frown appeared on his face.
This situation seemed to have started since the appearance of Dai Na, the daughter of the president from Y Country. She would avoid him whenever he came back. They were staying under the same roof, but it was difficult to meet.
The servant felt Ye Qing’s coldness and said cautiously, “Your Highness, why don’t I go upstairs and ask Miss Gu to come down?”
Ye Qing replied coldly, “No need.”
Every night before going to bed, Gu Meng would tell a bedtime story to the baby in her stomach.
She had a feeling that when the baby was born, she would be separated from him. So, she cherished every moment with him and wanted her baby to listen to her voice more.
After finishing the bedtime story, Gu Meng lay down to sleep.
…
The next day.
Gu Meng got up for breakfast. When she was about to enter the dining room, she heard the man’s deep voice. “Go and see if she has woken up.”
Gu Meng’s heart skipped a beat.
He was still here? He was usually busy with work and even if he came in the evening, he would leave early the next morning.
Why was he still here today?
Gu Meng turned around and went upstairs quickly.
The servant knocked on her door. “Miss Gu, His Highness asked you to go down for breakfast.”
Gu Meng opened the door a crack. “I’ll eat after he leaves.”
The servant had been working in the palace for a long time. She knew that Gu Meng was someone who was giving birth to His Highness’s child. But under the dignified air of His Highness, she did not dare to gossip or disrespect Gu Meng.
The servant said, “Miss Gu, His Highness is resting and will stay in the villa the next few days.”
Gu Meng frowned. Why didn’t he go back to the palace if he wanted to rest?
“If he doesn’t leave, I won’t eat.”
Gu Meng then slammed the door shut.
The servant went downstairs and looked at the man who was sitting in the dining room reading the newspaper while waiting for Gu Meng to come down. She gulped and said fearfully. “Your Highness, Miss Gu said that… if you don’t leave the villa, she won’t eat.”
Ye Qing’s handsome face darkened. Putting down the newspaper, he strode out of the dining room. When he arrived at Gu Meng’s room on the second floor, Ye Qing raised his hand and knocked on the door. “Come out to have breakfast.”
“I have no appetite if I see you,” the woman in the room replied.
Ye Qing had one hand on his waist and the other on the door, his dark eyes narrowed dangerously. “I’ll say it again, come out to eat.”
“I will eat if you leave.”
Ye Qing wanted to ask the servant to bring the spare key up, but then did not think that it was necessary. He had already tried his best to treat her well, but wasn’t she getting a little too arrogant?
His sharp face darkened and he said in a cold voice, “Gu Meng, if anything happens to the child, are you sure you can take that responsibility?”
Gu Meng sat on the bed and her eyes felt hot when she heard his words. Although she had come to terms with reality, his words still stabbed at her heart.
Taking the cup from the bedside table, she threw it at the door and snapped, “Then get lost!”
Ye Qing was obviously angry with Gu Meng. No one dared to talk to him like this. She was the first.
…
Gu Meng would really not leave the room if Ye Qing did not leave. She had some nutritional supplements in her room and would eat it when she was hungry.
Ye Qing stayed in the study the whole time. When it was time for meals, Ye Qing was the only one who ate and his expression was turning darker. Especially when the servant delivered the food upstairs and came back with it untouched.
The invisible war between the two made the servants afraid to even breathe.
Gu Meng slept too long in the daytime, so she did not feel sleepy at night. Drawing the curtains open, she saw that Ye Qing’s car was still parked in the yard.
It was obvious that he had not left yet.
Although she had the supplements, she had not eaten anything else the whole day. In the middle of the night, Gu Meng’s stomach began to growl.
Now that she was pregnant, it was not like when she was alone. Even if she did not eat, her child needed to eat. She did not dare to really use the child’s safety to spite him.
Gu Meng looked at the time and it was almost midnight. At this time, the servant and Ye Qing should be resting!
Gu Meng opened the door a crack and stuck her head to look outside.
It was quiet around and there was only a faint yellow corridor lamp turned on.
So Gu Meng went out of the door and went downstairs. She was already familiar with the environment of the villa and knew where the kitchen was even with her eyes closed.
After reaching the kitchen in the dark, Gu Meng opened the refrigerator, taking out the ingredients to cook a bowl of noodles for herself.
Once done with her eating, she cleaned up the kitchen, washed the bowl and prepared to return upstairs. When passing by the living room, she suddenly smelled a faint scent of tobacco.
She glanced at the sofa and saw a trace of scarlet in the dark. Apparently, someone was sitting there smoking.
Gu Meng’s heart was beating wildly. It was not because she was moved, but from embarrassment and panic.
She did not come out to eat all day and was caught when she sneaked out in the middle of the night. How could she not feel panicked?
Gu Meng pretended to be calm and looked away. She went upstairs with her back hunched. She only dared to let out her breath when she reached upstairs.
Entering the room, she was about to close the door when suddenly, a long hand reached over and slipped between the crack of the door.
Gu Meng’s heart that had calmed down thumped again. Raising her clear eyes, she met with the man’s dark eyes which were so deep they could devour people’s hearts.
He did not ridicule or blame her and just said with a cold expression. “Let’s talk.”
Gu Meng suddenly felt like a deflated ball, or like a clown, when she looked at his mature and indifferent face and his slender, deep eyes. She worked hard to perform on stage, only to find that there was no audience.
After the reality was completely broken, she could not cry or laugh and only felt an endless sorrow.
Perhaps she should have looked at herself first.
Throwing a temper, what right did she even have? In the end, she was just a tool for giving birth.
And who would care if she threw a temper?
