Chapter 738: Chapter 739: I’ll Arrange It

"Dongzi!" Li Sijie’s eyes suddenly reddened, she grabbed Song Xiaodong’s hands, choking up as she said, "Please don’t make me terminate the pregnancy, let me have the baby, I absolutely won’t disturb your life, I won’t let the child acknowledge you, I really just want to have a child, I really don’t intend to use the child to try to force you into anything."

Song Xiaodong was stunned for a moment, then, wide-eyed and slack-jawed, said, "You’ve been avoiding me because you’re afraid I’d make you terminate the pregnancy?"

"Will... will you let me have the baby?" Li Sijie asked, looking at Song Xiaodong in surprise.

"Of course!" Song Xiaodong replied affirmatively.

"Ah?" Li Sijie was even more dumbfounded, staring blankly at Song Xiaodong.

Song Xiaodong gripped Li Sijie’s hands back, softly saying, "After all, this child is mine, how could I not want him? I am the child’s father, how could I bear it."

Li Sijie excitedly said, "Then... then as long as you let me have the baby, I will definitely take good care of everything myself, really, I won’t cause any trouble for you."

"Don’t get excited, keep calm, otherwise it’s not good for the fetus." Song Xiaodong’s tone was even softer.

"Okay, okay, I’m not excited, I’m not excited," Li Sijie hastily calmed her agitated emotions.

After taking a few deep breaths, Li Sijie finally calmed down, and looking at Song Xiaodong, said, "Dongzi, I mean what I said, you just need to know it, don’t have any worries."

Song Xiaodong smiled slightly, saying, "Honestly, you being pregnant with my child was quite sudden, I wasn’t prepared mentally either, suddenly about to become a dad, I was also caught off guard."

Li Sijie quickly said, "It’s okay, it’s okay, just pretend you don’t know."

Song Xiaodong said, "How can that be okay? I am the father of the child, so I have to take up the responsibility of being a dad, I have to take you home."

"Take me home? Are you crazy?" Li Sijie was startled again and took a couple of deep breaths.

Song Xiaodong organized his words and said, "The situation at my home is already quite special now, Qingqing and Xuanxuan are with me, as well as Yingying, Su’er, and my sister, she isn’t my biological sister, this was even reported online recently, you might have heard about it."

Li Sijie’s eyes widened as she looked at Song Xiaodong and said, "All... all of them are together?"

"Yes, all together, and there’s also Shui Qingyue, you don’t know her yet, I’ll introduce you later, but this development was very sudden for me, and for the others as well, so I can’t bring you home immediately, I need to find the right moment."

"They... all of them are with you? All in your house?" Li Sijie suddenly showed great interest in this issue.

"Yes, but Qingqing and my sister are still in Tiannan, there are still some issues in their company, they can’t come to Minghe right now, they should be there before the New Year."

"They... they won’t get jealous? They won’t fight?"

"No, they are all very nice girls, very understanding, so there won’t be any fights, and when you come over, you will be able to get along with them too."

"This... this is unbelievable," Li Sijie muttered, but her eyes clearly showed a peculiar sparkle, although she wanted to have the child by herself, how could she not long for the child to live with his father? And given the situation at Song Xiaodong’s house, it seemed she might also have a chance to blend in.

Song Xiaodong thought for a moment, then said, "Here’s what we’ll do, Xuanxuan knows about our past, this matter still needs her help, when I go back I’ll talk to Xuanxuan, then let her break the news to everyone, that way it will be easier for them to accept."

Li Sijie gently bit her lip, saying, "Oh, I’ll listen to you."

"Yeah, I’ll handle this matter. Don’t worry, I won’t let you go through childbirth alone in misery. It’s unbelievable that I only found out now after such a long pregnancy; it shows I’m not fit to be a father yet."

"No, no... this... I don’t even know how to describe my feelings right now. I really didn’t expect that things would turn out this way. I’m truly happy, really." Li Sijie threw herself into Song Xiaodong’s arms, tears streaming down uncontrollably.

Song Xiaodong held Li Sijie, feeling somewhat mixed emotions. After a while, he calmed down.

He patted Li Sijie’s shoulder and said, "I’m going to make a call to arrange someone to take care of you."

"There’s no need, I can take care of myself."

"How can that be possible? You are pregnant; it’s too hard for you to be alone. Even if I hire a maid, I won’t be at ease. You just stay relaxed and focus on your pregnancy; I’ll handle the rest."

Song Xiaodong took out his phone and immediately called Su Yuya.

"Auntie, can you find me someone at the Su Family who knows how to take care of pregnant women?"

Su Yuya casually said, "There are such people available? But what for? It isn’t because you have a mistress who got pregnant, right?"

"Yes!" Song Xiaodong admitted straightforwardly, trusting Su Yuya immensely as she was like his right-hand man.

There was a distinct oddity in Su Yuya’s tone as she said, "Goodness... With so many people in your family, and you still keep a mistress. I really can’t understand you."

"It’s from before; I only found out about her pregnancy now, so I have to take responsibility. But I’m not yet ready to tell the family; that’s why I need someone to take care of her first, so I can be at ease."

"I see, you really know how to keep your options open. I feel so sorry for my two nieces. Where should I go, and what time should I arrange it?"

"As soon as possible, please. It’s around Tiannan; it won’t take long, and then I’ll bring her over."

"Okay, don’t worry, I won’t tell Xuanxuan and the others."

"Thank you, Auntie."

Song Xiaodong hung up the phone, then passed Li Sijie’s phone back to her, saying, "Alright, it’s arranged now. The person to take care of you will arrive in a couple of days."

Li Sijie looked at Song Xiaodong with a mesmerized expression and said, "Dongzi, I suddenly realize you really have a presence now. You truly carry yourself with an aura."

Song Xiaodong chuckled and replied, "Is that so? Haha, well, I am now the head of a major family, so of course, I have a bit of an authoritative air. Otherwise, people wouldn’t respect me."

Li Sijie said, "Is it just because of your status that they are willing to follow you?"

"Of course not, they are all people I met here, just like you. It’s just that the change in status helps to quell some rumors and reduces the pressure on them."

"I see... I think I will get along well with them." After saying this, Li Sijie blushed.
