Rebirth: He Decides to Lie Flat
Chapter 508 - 508 503 Suspicion

Chapter 508: Chapter 503: Suspicion Chapter 508: Chapter 503: Suspicion Liu Wenhui burst out laughing when he heard what she said, almost doubling over. “It’s just you who’s responsible for the baby? The child has nothing to do with me? Do you have both male and female organs? Can you get pregnant on your own?”

“Stop flailing.”

He picked up Qi Lihong and brought her back to the corner.

Unable to break free, Qi Lihong simply stopped struggling, but the words she kept repeating were the same, “I’m not joking with you. I’m definitely keeping this child, but I won’t marry you.”

“What do you mean? Are you planning on being a single mother?”

Liu Wenhui’s face darkened, his arms holding her tightened, and he looked down at her, gritting his teeth, “Qi Lihong, have I spoiled you too much in the last two years? Have I let you think you can say and do whatever you want?”

But at that moment, Qi Lihong was not focused on Liu Wenhui’s emotions; she looked down, annoyed, and said, “What are you doing? Don’t press against my stomach.”

Liu Wenhui was speechless. “Some stomach, it’s just a fertilized egg right now.”

Qi Lihong: …

She placed a hand on her lower abdomen, her voice low but resolute as she emphasized again, “No matter what, I am definitely going to give birth to him/her.”

The world was not a beautiful place to her, and the only reason she was still trying so hard to live was because her mother’s greatest wish before she passed away was for her to break free from that ‘family’ and have her own life.

Her life was exchanged for by her mother’s death; that’s why she dared not die.

But living alone in this world, returning to lonely dreams at midnight, feeling loneliness, confusion, helplessness… all these emotions constantly wrapped around her heart, making her feel as though she was living without any hope.

Liu Wenhui’s family disliked her, so even though they were together now, she knew in her heart that their future was unlikely.

But now things were different; the sudden appearance of this little life had cast a ray of hope into Qi Lihong’s despairing life.

With her own flesh and blood, she now had an expectation to live on.

Once she gave birth to him/her, she wouldn’t be alone anymore; she’d have the only relative in this world.

No one understood the immense surprise and happiness she felt after finding out she was pregnant, so of course, nobody could stop her from bringing this child into the world, not even Liu Wenhui.

Thinking this in her heart, she murmured, “You know I don’t have any relatives, and my life didn’t mean much. But now it’s different, now that I have him/her, I won’t think about dying anymore…”

Liu Wenhui was stunned; he never knew that over these two years, the change in her temperament hid such thoughts.

He thought she had come to understand herself better and actually liked her current personality because she learned to fight back, to protect herself, and made things easier for him.

But he hadn’t realized her mind was so desolate deep down.

“Qi Lihong…”

“Don’t worry, I can support him/her on my own. After you get married and have your own children, we won’t bother you, and we won’t ask you for living expenses,” she assured him.

Liu Wenhui’s frown deepened, his face turning even darker than before. He reached out and pinched Qi Lihong’s chin, forcing her to look up at him, “You’ve planned quite far ahead, even considering my getting married and having children. What, don’t you plan to let him/her acknowledge their father?”

Qi Lihong was not afraid of him at all now and scoffed, “What’s the use of wanting him/her to recognize a father? With your mom’s endless nagging, I wouldn’t dare have such a mother-in-law. So between your mother and me, you can only choose one. Could you possibly choose me? I don’t think so, right?”

Bringing up his mother gave Liu Wenhui a headache, but obviously, this wasn’t the time to talk about that.

He asked her, “Does anyone else know about your pregnancy?”

Qi Lihong paused, not understanding why he was asking, “Jiawen knows, she accompanied me to the hospital for the check-up. We didn’t go to the nearby affiliated hospital, but to a farther one where her brother works.”

“Besides Mu Jiawen?”

We’ve known each other for years, and everyone knows what Mu Jiawen is like; it’s impossible to suspect her.

“Can you first tell me what happened? Is it related to my pregnancy?”

“Yeah, Mr. Chi received a message that someone reported you to the Education Department.”

Reported? At this time?

Qi Lihong was stunned. There were only a few days left until graduation, and someone chose this time to report her? Just to prevent her from getting her diploma?

It only took three seconds for Qi Lihong to know who it was.

“It must have been Zhang Ting. I was so happy when I got back from the hospital yesterday afternoon that I stared at that early pregnancy test for a long time in the dorm until Zhang Ting came back in, and only then did I put it away in the drawer. She might have snooped through my drawer.”

“Damn it!” Liu Wenhui couldn’t help but curse, “She’d better pray I don’t catch her stepping out of line, or I’ll see that she doesn’t get away with it.”

After all the hard work over four years of university, who wouldn’t want to graduate smoothly and receive their diploma?

Qi Lihong was completely fed up with Zhang Ting. What had she ever done to her? Whenever there was a conflict between them, hadn’t it always been her who started it?

What now? She was only allowed to cause trouble for her, and she wasn’t allowed to fight back?

“Just act as you normally would when you go back, and don’t pay attention to her. I’m going to see Mr. Chi and Jiang Yan now; we’ll handle this matter. Don’t worry, everything will be okay.”

Liu Wenhui was worried that if Qi Lihong confronted Zhang Ting, and she became backed into a corner and teamed up with Weng Minhong to attack Qi Lihong…

He couldn’t enter the ladies’ dormitory; he was powerless to help.

Watching Qi Lihong go back to her dormitory, Liu Wenhui then headed to Mr. Chi’s office.

Jiang Yan was still waiting for him. As soon as he returned, he blurted out, “Is it true?”

Liu Wenhui thought to himself that Mu Jiawen was really tight-lipped, not even mentioning a word to Jiang Yan. Just for that, he would give her an extra hongbao when the child was born.

He nodded and his face unexpectedly twisted, making Mr. Chi and Jiang Yan, who were used to seeing his boisterous demeanor, feel uncomfortable.

This damn…

“What’s with that face? Pack it in!”

Liu Wenhui wiped his face and laughed, “I’m going to be a dad, can’t you let me be happy for a moment?”

After finishing, he bragged, “Sorry, I can’t quite control it. You guys might not understand this feeling…”

“Get lost! As if you were the only one who has ever been a dad,” Mr. Chi scornfully glanced at him.

His wife had also just found out she was pregnant last month. Thinking about that, he couldn’t help but smile slightly.

Jiang Yan looked at them, speechless. Have the two of you forgotten something?

After catching Jiang Yan’s gaze, both of them snapped back to reality.

Liu Wenhui quickly shared Qi Lihong’s suspicion with them, “It must be Zhang Ting. She probably snooped through Qi Lihong’s drawer and saw the early pregnancy test.”

After finishing, he cursed again, “Damn, that woman is truly vile. No matter how bad their relationship is, they were classmates and roommates for four years. It’s not like they have any deep-seated grudges. Does she really need to stoop so low?”

Mr. Chi pondered for a moment, then said to the two of them, “I’ll talk to Zhang Ting tomorrow. If she admits it, I will try to persuade her. The best solution is for her to withdraw her report at the Education Department and tell the teachers that she was mistaken, that Qi Lihong, in fact, isn’t pregnant…”
