Chapter 400: 405 The person I love, is you! _1

Zhou Ziqing looked at him with a hint of mockery and arrogance, she said close to him, "I understand perfectly, of course I don’t need to ask the doctor, but do you need me to find a doctor to explain to you what the 77% means?"

The tension on the man’s cheeks increased, and he remained silent.

Zhou Ziqing’s eyes started to well up with tears again, asking with grief. "You’re not going to deny it, are you?"

The man looked at her, his eyes cold. "What do you want me to admit? Admit that Duoduo is my child? Do you want everyone to know, so you can humiliate yourself? Do you want everyone to despise you?"

Damn it, he didn’t want to be dragged into this scandal. If this matter sees the light of day, it would be a huge embarrassment for him!

Zhou Ziqing’s tears flowed more freely. Choking up, she said, "Yes, I don’t want to say, I don’t want to embarrass myself. But it is unfair to Qin Muchuan to be falsely accused this way, isn’t it?"

"Ha ha..." The man with the cigar gave a cold laugh, mocking and staring into Zhou Ziqing’s eyes. "Can you really consider Qin Muchuan’s feelings? If you could, Duoduo would not exist, don’t you think?"

His words shattered any semblance of a conscience Zhou Ziqing had left.

Indeed, her integrity, her conscience, was that fragile.

"I won’t speak, I don’t want to say anything. You don’t need to mock me. What do you propose we do now? It is clear that Duoduo is your child. We can deceive everyone for now, but what if Qin Muchuan discovers the truth someday? What should I do then?" Zhou Ziqing said, even starting to throw a tantrum.

The man before her was nothing like Qin Muchuan. In front of Qin Muchuan, she needed to pretend to be kind.

But not with this man.

The middle-aged man, on the edge of old age, understood what she wanted but asked her to say it out loud. "What do you want to do? Are you trying to expose everything?"

Zhou Ziqing wasn’t stupid, things hadn’t reached that point yet, there was no need for her to be so uncaring with her words yet.

She sat on this old man’s lap, arms around his neck, even stealing a kiss on his face. "What could I want? My only goal is to be with you. For now, claiming the child is Qin Muchuan’s, isn’t it to get some money from him? You don’t think I am planning to be with him due to Duoduo, do you?"

The old man looked at her, this young woman. "So you truly don’t want to be with him anymore?"

"I don’t want to make our relationship so complicated..." Zhou Ziqing said.

The man scoffed, not putting any faith in her words. "Ha, do you really care about our problems? Now that you know you can’t get to him, you’re trying to deceive me, aren’t you?"

"What kind of woman do you think I am?" Zhou Ziqing retorted, somewhat angry. "Besides, if I was such a woman, why wouldn’t I have chosen to marry him back then? You should know, I had a chance with him back then. If I had said I was pregnant, he would have married me even if he had a child."

The old man thought it over, there seemed to be some truth in her words. "Then why didn’t you marry him back then? What’s the real reason you decided to go abroad?"

Zhou Ziqing turned to look at him, her eyes full of grievances. She held his face in her hands. "If I say I did it because of you, would you believe me?"

The old man looked at her, uncertain. "Really?"

"Why would I lie to you? What’s in it for me if I do?" Zhou Ziqing whispered.

The old man thought it over and indeed, she would have had a chance. And because she didn’t choose him, was it really because of him?

Zhou Ziqing understood that the man in front of her seemed to believe what she said, so she decided to strike while the iron was hot. "Maybe you won’t believe me when I say this, but I really want to tell you that back then, you were more attractive than him. You were mature, worldly, and handsome. I really liked mature men. You completely fulfilled my fantasy of a man. I was fascinated by you. I was enchanted by you. Don’t you remember? I didn’t even answer Qin Muchuan’s calls to be with you..."

Swallowing hard, the man thought about the exciting time six years ago. He had been truly smitten with her.

In fact, to keep her, he had given up on many other women, he had let them all go!

And she had been so young, so innocent back then, like an unripe apple, but she always pretended to be mature, her eyes always so cold.

He had always been very attracted to her.

He had always thought that she was with him just for the sake of saving money to go abroad. Apparently that was not the whole truth.

She might actually have liked him.

"What you’re saying, is it true?" he asked, uncertainly.

"What do you think? Is what I’m saying the truth?" Instead of answering, Lin Xiangwan asked him.

The old man stared intently at her. Zhou Ziqing showed him her cheek and looked at him with a naive expression she used when she was a young girl.

He held her tighter, speaking sadly. "Why didn’t you tell me earlier? If you had told me, I would have never let you leave!"

Zhou Ziqing let him embrace her, she nestled into his arms. "You have a family, you had no plans to divorce your wife. I didn’t want to be a mistress. I was a top student with a lot of ambition. I would never agree to a secret, hidden relationship."

"Now, how about now?" The old man asked, worried.

"Things are different now, I’m getting older, and Duoduo needs a father. I want to settle down." Zhou Ziqing replied, sounding desolate and tired.

"Mm, then you stay here, no more running around!" The old man said.

"If you truly could let me lean on you, give me a safe harbor, I would never leave. I willingly want to be with you!" Zhou Ziqing said, her eyes filling with tears.

"Ok, ok..." The old man repeatedly comforted her, gently rubbing her back. "From now on, just tell me what you want, and I’ll give it to you if I can!"

Zhou Ziqing pulled his arm, pouting her lips. "I don’t want anything from you!"

"You don’t want money either?" The man asked.

Zhou Ziqing rolled her eyes, and stated emphatically, "Don’t think that money is for me, if you give it to me, it’s for your daughter!"

When the man heard her say ’daughter’, he spoke less. "Alright, you can decide whatever!"
