Chapter 554: Chapter 555 Personal Emotions

What a complex array of emotions that was, laden with worry and bitterness, joy and sorrow, hope and despair.

Nan Qing knew that the troubles, mixed emotions, and despair in Su Cheng’s heart were all because of Fu Han, while the joy and hope, along with the bitterness, were his own true feelings.

It was just a pity that all the emotions related to Fu Han completely overpowered his personal feelings, meaning that his feelings for Fu Han completely dominated his own.

For some reason, Nan Qing suddenly felt sympathy for Su Cheng. Previously, when Nan Qing liked Su Cheng, she focused more on her own feelings toward him, but now she suddenly realized that her feelings were not as deep as Su Cheng’s for Fu Han.

In the past, she had always believed that her fondness for Su Cheng surpassed his for Fu Han. She always felt that the fate and bond between her and Su Cheng existed from the moment of their birth, surpassing everyone, including their parents.

But now, after everything that had happened, Nan Qing had to admit that feelings couldn’t be measured by the length of time, and loving someone more didn’t equate to loving them for longer.

What matters between people is destiny. Feelings are a metaphysical issue, and love is the most difficult subject to study.

To this day, Nan Qing still hadn’t figured it out, and she knew that perhaps she may never fully understand it in her lifetime. But what did that matter, when she now had someone she liked, and that person also liked her back, and they were soon to welcome the fruit of their love? She knew this was a blessing from heaven, and she would cherish it.

Thinking this way, Nan Qing turned her head to look at Wang Yixuan, and sure enough, she saw that Wang Yixuan was also looking at her. It was clear that Wang Yixuan knew Nan Qing had just been looking at Su Cheng, but there wasn’t a hint of jealousy or displeasure on his face. Instead, there was even a sense of pity in his eyes.

When their gazes met, Nan Qing’s heart softened. She knew that Wang Yixuan understood her feelings for Su Cheng, just as he never avoided Nan Qing’s mentions of Su Cheng.

With this interlude, the already quiet atmosphere of the dinner became even more subdued, no, ’deadly silent’ would be a better description.

Everyone was an adult and could see clearly.

After dinner, the Nangong couple had only one cup of tea before they excused themselves.

Nan Qing asked her parents to take Wang Yixuan home first, as she proposed to take a walk outside with Su Cheng.

Su Cheng was daydreaming when he heard the news, and he was stunned. He didn’t immediately know how to respond.

It was the Huangpu Madame, grateful, who spoke for Su Cheng without hesitating, "It’s good to take a walk, it’s good to take a walk. The New Year is almost here, and our area is beautifully decorated. It’s just right for you two to go see it."

Su Cheng’s emotions today had been like a roller coaster. Seeing Fu Han at the Nangong Family was an instant high, no ascent needed, straight to the peak. However, two pieces of news broke out today, making Su Cheng incredibly sad.

If he had to say what he wanted to do now, maybe what he most wanted was to see Fu Han, to be by Fu Han’s side, to help Fu Han figure out what on earth was going on.

So when Nan Qing asked him out at this moment, he actually really didn’t want to; but his mother insisted on him going out, and he couldn’t defy his mother, so he had to comply with her arrangements.

As the Huangpu Madame said, with the New Year approaching, the villa area was decorated beautifully, with various colored lights hanging on the trees along the path; the trees on either side of the road were even connected by ropes, with large red lanterns every ten centimeters or so on the ropes.

It was just very ordinary, the most commonplace kind of lanterns. If Nan Qing saw lanterns for sale on any usual day as she walked down the street, she wouldn’t give them a second glance, but now she found them exceptionally beautiful.

The lanterns looked like a series of stars arranged in the sky, as if by making a wish to the heavens, it would come true instantly.

During the day when Nan Qing returned, she didn’t see many people, but there were more at night. There were young people walking side by side like them, there were jumping and bouncing children, and there were old people leaning on each other for support.

Nan Qing’s gaze was drawn to a little girl in front of her— an extremely pretty little girl with chestnut curly hair, snow-white skin, green eyes, a high nose bridge, looking cuter than the dolls in the display window.

Unconsciously, her hand caressed her belly, which was still flat, not at all like someone who had been pregnant for over a month.

Life really was miraculous, appearing in this world when you least expected it.

A smile began to form at the corners of Nan Qing’s lips, and she couldn’t help but think to herself how wonderful it would be if the baby in her belly were also a pretty little girl.

Su Cheng had walked about two meters before he realized that Nan Qing wasn’t keeping up and slowed down his pace. He looked back and saw Nan Qing’s silhouette, her profile illuminated by the lights and appearing exceptionally gentle, a stark contrast to her lively front.

Following Nan Qing’s gaze, he too saw the little girl squatting on the roadside picking up leaves, and he was stunned for a moment. Such a beautiful child, with wings, could be transformed into a fairy.

Thinking this, Su Cheng’s eyes softened as he looked back at Nan Qing, "You..."

He paused, finding it difficult to vocalize the rest of his thoughts. After waiting for Nan Qing to look back at him, he continued, "You... Nan Qing, how have you been feeling since you got pregnant?"

A smile slowly appeared on Nan Qing’s face, and a few seconds later, she tilted her head and laughed, "Not bad, It feels... as if there’s no difference at all."

Su Cheng had expected Nan Qing to say something earth-shattering but was taken aback by such a response.

He stood there stunned, his long, narrow eyes fixated on Nan Qing. Under the starry sky, her face seemed so beautiful.

Su Cheng had never ’gotten’ Nan Qing’s looks before; he always thought that she had nothing to do with beauty, at most that she was a cute girl. Even in the past, when male classmates asked Su Cheng to deliver love letters for them to Nan Qing, he would bluntly rebuke if they had gone blind.

In Su Cheng’s opinion, Nan Qing was just an ordinary girl with big, round eyes and a round face, perhaps just a bit cuter than the average girl.

His bond with Nan Qing had been sealed before he was even born. He was supposed to be born before Nan Qing according to the predicted due date, but he was actually born a week late, while Nan Qing was born a week early.

In the end, the result was this miraculous: they shared the same birthday, with just an hour difference in their times of birth.
