Chapter 1333: What If He Wants the Child

On the coffee table were two empty bottles of red wine.

Chu Yao glanced over, “How many days’ worth is that?”

“Two days.”

“You haven’t drunk much; is it because the mood wasn’t right, or your sadness wasn’t triggered?”

Chu Yao teased as she went to the wine cabinet.

It was Miss Lu’s private collection, some bottles you couldn’t buy even if you had the money.

She picked the most expensive one, grabbed two glasses, and on her way back, noticed an empty milk tea cup in the trash.

She sneered, “The kid’s been here?”

“She was here.”

“What do you even have to drink with her?

You drink wine, she drinks milk.

You two aren’t on the same wavelength!”

Chu Yao filled a glass of red wine to the brim, leaving only half a fingernail’s width to the top.

She placed the glass in front of Lu Zhenzhen, shook the bottle with a good amount left, and decided against pouring it into a glass.

Drinking in small sips was pointless, so she drank straight from the bottle.

“What about the kid?”

Lu Zhenzhen lifted her eyelids and gave Chu Yao a fleeting look, “In the belly.”

“And Gao Zhe’s attitude?”

“Most likely his.

Can’t escape it.”

Chu Yao cursed, “What’s the use of you?

You keep such a close eye on him usually, yet he still managed to sneak away for a fling.”

She took a gulp of wine and suddenly realized, “Once isn’t enough.

Otherwise, why hasn’t your belly shown any sign all these years?

He’s been with that woman for a while, hasn’t he?

Quite the skill, cheating right under your nose!”

Lu Zhenzhen grabbed a pillow and threw it at her face, “You did that on purpose!”

“Yeah, on purpose.”

Chu Yao easily dodged it, making a “tsk” sound, “I can say nice things too, you want to hear?

I can go on, but those kind of words are useless.

With us, no need for pretense.”

Lu Zhenzhen glared at her, “Then you’re just stabbing me in the heart.

You’re pretty good.

Usually can’t refute me, but once you catch me in trouble, you go in hard.”

“Is this just a little problem?

Your man gave you an illegitimate child!”

Lu Zhenzhen’s temples throbbed.

Why did she feel more exhausted after a nap than staying up all night?

She must be out of her mind to call this troublemaker back!

“If you really can’t speak properly, shut up and stay quiet!”

“No can do,” Chu Yao took a sip of wine, grinned, “You’re the one who invited me back, so I’m going to make my presence known!”

“Serves you right!” Lu Zhenzhen glared at her, “How did you even get here?”

“I flew back.”

Lu Zhenzhen…

Chu Yao isn’t as bad as Nan Jiaojiao; at least Nan Jiaojiao doesn’t speak so harshly.

She really couldn’t even cry if she wanted to, being rebutted in just a few words left her both angry and annoyed, yet she couldn’t do anything about them.

Might as well drink.

Very soon, the bottle in Chu Yao’s hand was empty, so she went to grab a bottle of yellow wine.

Lu Zhenzhen reasonably suspected she was here just for free drinks.

After getting tipsy, Chu Yao rarely asked a sensible question: “If Gao Zhe wants to keep the child, what do you plan to do?”

What to do?

It’s been two days.

Gao Zhe seemed to have disappeared.

No sign of him in person, not a single phone call, no message on WeChat.

But Lu Zhenzhen knew he was in Rongcheng City.

He hadn’t gone anywhere, just hadn’t come to her place.

Knowing what’s going on but finding it hard to play dumb was driving her crazy.

They agreed on a three-day deadline, but Gao Zhe did nothing.

Or maybe he did, but it didn’t involve her.

“I don’t know.”

Chu Yao looked at her steadily for a couple of seconds, then turned her head to laugh.

She leaned against the sofa, sitting on the carpet, one leg bent, resting her hand holding the wine bottle on her knee.

“The day after tomorrow, I’ll go with you.”
