Chapter 921 - 319: A False Alarm and Qi Siyu’s Disappointment (Part 2)

She also felt that at this age, having a child with Li Yuan was a good thing. On the way here, she was already imagining what the child would look like, whether they’d take after their father or mother, and whether they would be mischievous...

But when that middle-aged female doctor spoke those cold words, her mind went completely blank, turning into a muddled mess.

Originally, her mixed feelings of joy and worry turned into sheer disappointment. Even the comfort from Liang Jingjing and Li Yuan didn’t really reach her, making her feel like she’d lost her soul...

Li Yuan, who appeared relaxed, couldn’t understand why Qi Siyu seemed so low-spirited.

Not being pregnant, wasn’t that a good thing?

Could it be, she really wanted to have a child with him without any status or title?

What kind of thinking was this?

Li Yuan was utterly confused.

He put his arm around Qi Siyu’s shoulder, brought his mouth close to her ear, and teasingly whispered:

"Mrs. Qi, cheer up. If you really want a child, I’ll work harder tonight, maybe give it a few more tries, and who knows, we might just hit the jackpot!"

Hearing Li Yuan’s nonchalant words, Qi Siyu’s face instantly blushed, and her feelings of disappointment vanished without a trace. She glared at Li Yuan with beautiful eyes and extended her slender hand to give his waist a hard pinch.

"Hmph, you rascal, so annoying. Who said I want a child?"

Li Yuan gasped for air, "Hiss, hiss, hiss, alright, you don’t want one, but I do. Okay? Just don’t pinch me!"

This woman, her pinches were really strong!

If it weren’t for the thick clothes in this winter, she’d almost twisted a layer of flesh.

Qi Siyu turned her head away proudly: "Even if you want one, it won’t happen. I’m not giving you a child. Have your other girlfriends give you one."

Li Yuan chuckled softly, feeling a growing sense of caution in his heart.

This time, it was by coincidence and luck that Qi Siyu wasn’t pregnant. What about next time?

Can he still be this lucky?

Not just Qi Siyu, what if Xia Zhijin, Zhong Tingyue, or Bai Weixi face similar situations?

He couldn’t guarantee it.

Walking by the river often means getting your shoes wet. Sometimes, when emotions run deep, it’s hard to extricate oneself, and such things can happen.

Relying solely on the ’safe period’ for calculating isn’t really safe. Protection is needed during risky times.

Having children is fine, even a hundred of them, but not at this moment, and especially not with Qi Siyu first.

Right now, his relationship with Qi Siyu is still in the secret stage.

Although there are rumors about him and Qi Siyu at school, no one has concrete evidence, and he has intentionally covered it up.

At this thought, Li Yuan silently cursed himself,

Pfft, scumbag!

Since his rebirth, he indeed became very much a scoundrel.

In some respects, he deceived the feelings of Zhong Tingyue and Xia Zhijin by weaving a story with lies, ensnaring them.

Yet, in this story, there was no Qi Siyu, nor any other girl.

If they ever found out he was entangled with a university counselor, Li Yuan couldn’t imagine how Zhong Tingyue and Bai Weixi would react...

"Alas, they say don’t let bad women slip away, and don’t disappoint good women, but I truly let them down."

Li Yuan gazed gloomily toward the north,

because of his scoundrel behavior, he completely lost a magical girl who once had eyes and a world full of him.

"It’s getting late, let’s go have dinner and then take a stroll!"

Before Qi Siyu could say anything, Liang Jingjing excitedly spoke up:

"Sure, sure, it’s rare for Handsome Li to have free time, we should make the most of today and enjoy a stroll."

Qi Siyu, holding Li Yuan’s arm, had already regained her cheerful and bright smile.

She hadn’t spent time with Li Yuan for more than half a month, and she cherished this rare moment. After tonight, who knows how long it’ll be until she is with Li Yuan again...

...

Following that, Li Yuan began fulfilling his "boyfriend" duties, accompanying Qi Siyu and Liang Jingjing to experience the bustling nightlife of Modu.

However, the only thing lacking was the presence of Liang Jingjing as a third wheel, who stayed by their side, making Li Yuan somewhat reserved.

He was too embarrassed to directly send Liang Jingjing away, and Qi Siyu didn’t indicate anything about it, so he could only accept it with reluctance.

At Riverside Park, a place etched in Li Yuan’s memory.

Here, he recalled the days spent walking with Jiang Zhiyu in the river breeze.

That day, he ran into someone from a media company wanting to sign Little Fish, which she promptly declined, showing off with the Lamborghini car key Little Fish had given him...

That day was also the first time he sang on stage, in front of an audience, performing "Natural Beauty" and "Love Confession Balloon", which suddenly made him popular, kicking off his overwhelming musical journey...

In this scenario, however, the person beside him had changed.

Li Yuan sighed inwardly, as there were times when he missed that angelic, fairy-like girl intensely, yet he could no longer find her...

"This park has quite a good atmosphere, although it’s a bit crowded, very lively." Liang Jingjing commented.

Seeing Li Yuan lost in thought, Qi Siyu asked curiously: "Li Yuan, do you have something on your mind? You don’t seem very happy?"

Just after finishing their meal and during their shopping soiree, Li Yuan was quite enthusiastic; how come after suddenly arriving at the park, he became silent?

"It’s nothing, just reminiscing about some past." Li Yuan shook his head, dispelling the lingering thoughts in his heart.

The past is like smoke, now just memories,

The loss he cannot retrieve, he can only silently keep in his heart, a person he once met in his life...

After hearing this, Liang Jingjing joked: "Li Yuan, you weren’t thinking about some girlfriend of yours, were you?"

Every one of them was well aware of Li Yuan’s wandering affections, so there was nothing to avoid, as Qi Siyu wasn’t even Li Yuan’s official girlfriend.

Li Yuan laughed in embarrassment, saying nothing further.

Suddenly, a burst of song reached his ears, with a very familiar melody.

[I know, those summers, just like youth, never come back]

[Replacing dreams can only be something that’s reluctantly accepted]

[I know the boasts I made will also be laughed off along with youth]

[Letting me be confined in the city, to remember you]

Hearing the distant song, Li Yuan suddenly stopped in his tracks, the tune was familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before, from a familiar person.

Seeing Li Yuan stop, Qi Siyu curiously asked: "Li Yuan, what’s up?"

Li Yuan smiled slightly without answering, his gaze followed the direction of the music, looking into the distance.

The sound of the song was coming from a corner of a small square not far ahead.

Looking in that direction, Li Yuan, holding Qi Siyu’s hand, chuckled: "Let’s go for a walk over there."

Qi Siyu and Liang Jingjing naturally had no objection, following Li Yuan’s lead, moving towards the corner of the square, following the sound of the music...

As they approached, they finally saw a crowd gathered around the corner of the square.

A female version of "Anhe Bridge" drifted over in the quiet yet somewhat lively night.

[I know those summers, they won’t return, just like you]

[I no longer have expectations for anyone]

[I know this world has too many regrets every day]

[So goodbye]

Listening to the melodious and somber voice, Liang Jingjing curiously commented:

"Hey, Li Yuan, isn’t this the ’Anhe Bridge’ you sang?"

As a university music teacher and Li Yuan’s girlfriend, Qi Siyu had long since committed all of Li Yuan’s songs to memory, knowing them by heart.

Listening to this "Anhe Bridge," she understood why Li Yuan had come to join the fun here.

However, seeing Li Yuan’s contemplative expression, Qi Siyu felt a bit puzzled and curious, wondering,

Who did Li Yuan write this song for?

As far as she knew, at the "Milk Tea Girl" award ceremony, every song Li Yuan sang was written for his different girlfriends.

Including this "Anhe Bridge"...

Li Yuan didn’t respond but listened attentively to the song, trying to identify the source of the voice.

It was someone he knew!
