Eternal Love: The Billionaire's Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 169 - 163: Is It Love or Torment

Wu Lin really prepared a table full of dishes. Leng Yichen casually picked up a piece of fish and put it in his mouth, but tasted Ming Xuan. It went without saying that these dishes were not made by Wu Lin herself. They were directly packed and brought over from Ming Xuan and then replated.

"I specially borrowed the hotel’s kitchen today and made many dishes under the guidance of the chef. What do you think?" Wu Lin was all smiles, as if she was the happiest woman in the world at that moment. She anticipated that every night in the future she could dine with Leng Yichen at the same table, not in a luxurious hotel suite, but in Leng Yichen’s home, their home.

"Hmm, not bad." Leng Yichen replied blandly, yet his palate recalled the various fish dishes Bai Yiran once made for him. Just because he once mentioned wanting fish, Bai Yiran had prepared a table full of assorted fish dishes. It was the best fish dish Leng Yichen had ever had in his life, he thought, while his mouth felt like he was chewing on wax.

"Oh! By the way!" Wu Lin suddenly remembered something, "I forgot to bring the wine. I’ll go get it~ I specially bought a bottle of delicious red wine today!"

With that, Wu Lin stood up gracefully to fetch the red wine.

During the time Wu Lin went to get the red wine, Leng Yichen received a phone call. After hearing the contents, the irritation in his heart deepened, and his face turned dark.

Bai Yiran was with Yin Tianshen, and hadn’t returned yet.

In an instant, Leng Yichen imagined a series of scenes with Bai Yiran and Yin Tianshen together, causing him to grip the chopsticks in his hand tightly, and with a crack, the wooden chopsticks broke.

Wu Lin quickly returned, and Leng Yichen had already composed himself, with no hint of anomaly, except for the pair of broken chopsticks silently condemning him.

Leng Yichen casually tossed the broken chopsticks onto the table, "They’re broken, get a new pair."

Wu Lin was slightly surprised, but didn’t pay much attention. She was more concerned about how to get Leng Yichen to drink the bottle of red wine.

While getting new chopsticks for Leng Yichen, she also poured him a glass of wine, "Try it quickly, this is the bottle I specially bought today. The boss said it’s the most expensive wine in their store, the taste must be great!"

Leng Yichen glanced at Wu Lin and slowly raised the glass to drink, but frowned after savoring the taste.

The most expensive wine doesn’t mean it’s the best. Leng Yichen glanced at the luxurious red wine bottle, estimating that 80% of the cost of this bottle was in the packaging.

Leng Yichen put down the glass but refused to take a second sip. He was almost obsessively picky about red wine, and this bottle was simply a terrible piece of work for him.

Little did he know, Wu Lin spent nearly twenty thousand yuan to buy this bottle of wine, or rather, the bottle.

"What? Not good?" Wu Lin noticed that Leng Yichen only took a sip and didn’t pick up the glass again, feeling anxious. She had little knowledge about red wine; to her, the taste was the same, and this wine was so expensive, it must have its merits. Yet it seemed not to have won Leng Yichen’s favor.

The most crucial part was that Leng Yichen only drank one sip, meaning the hidden additives in the wine couldn’t exert their expected effect.

Thinking that they had reached this point, Wu Lin didn’t want to miss this opportunity, so she stood up and walked to Leng Yichen’s side, and lifted his glass, bringing it to his lips.

"I specially bought this wine for you, just take another sip~"

Wu Lin’s voice was sweet and syrupy, her body soft as if boneless, snuggled against Leng Yichen.

Despite only drinking a sip, Leng Yichen began to undergo subtle changes.

Wu Lin noticed Leng Yichen’s gaze turning hazy, knowing the effect kicked in. Initially, she thought one sip of wine wouldn’t bring any reaction, but evidently, it was just right. After all, if she could do that with this man while he was conscious, it would be best.

With these thoughts, Wu Lin put down the glass and boldly sat in Leng Yichen’s lap.

Over the years, no man had been able to resist her charm. Although Yin Tianshen was so indifferent to her now, he had been captured by her back then.

Wu Lin couldn’t believe that under the influence of such additives in the wine, Leng Yichen wouldn’t desire her!

Wu Lin’s soft body writhed in Leng Yichen’s embrace. She could even clearly feel his breathing becoming heavy. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

"Yichen~" Wu Lin gazed dreamily, her face gradually approaching Leng Yichen’s, "I love you~"

Leng Yichen began to get excited, but he continued to envision another charming face in his mind while looking at Wu Lin.

Bai Yiran and Yin Tianshen actually parted at noon. After leaving the coffee shop, Yin Tianshen took her directly to Ming Xuan. Bai Yiran didn’t understand why Yin Tianshen always thought she liked Ming Xuan’s dishes, bringing her there for meals every time.

In fact, Bai Yiran wasn’t particularly fond of such small and expensive dishes. She ate them just to avoid wastage. But today, no matter what, she couldn’t eat, every bite felt like she was suppressing the urge to vomit.

So, without finishing the meal, Bai Yiran mentioned the busy coffee shop and left. Yin Tianshen seeing her discomfort didn’t insist.

Separated from Yin Tianshen, Bai Yiran didn’t return to the coffee shop, instead going to a nearby hospital. Only recently did she realize she had almost two months without her period, coupled with a drastic change in appetite. All this made Bai Yiran alarmed.

Upon receiving the doctor’s confirmation, Bai Yiran felt as if she had been struck by lightning.

She was pregnant.

Yet, she had broken up with Leng Yichen.

This child came at a bad time...

If she told Leng Yichen she was pregnant now, he might think she wanted to use the child to gain some benefit. So, should she terminate it? Bai Yiran gently touched her belly. She initially didn’t want to have a child because she felt not mature enough to raise one. If she hadn’t conceived, it wouldn’t matter, but now a life was growing in her belly, Bai Yiran could even feel its unformed breath, which made her unwilling to let go.

Then, should she be a single mom?

Just the thought of the term "single mom" made Bai Yiran feel weak, the ethereal uncertainty enveloped her mind.

Exiting the hospital, to save money, Bai Yiran took the bus and subway back, taking about two hours from downtown to the outskirts. Since the separation from Leng Yichen, Bai Yiran hadn’t driven, the Volvo purchased under her name was still parked in the Leng family’s garage, coexisting with multimillion-dollar luxury cars.

Getting off the bus, Bai Yiran walked toward the coffee shop. The early winter sky darkened especially fast; it was not yet seven, but already pitch-black, with few pedestrians on the road, and those who were, passed by with bowed heads in haste.

Bai Yiran felt a deep sense of solitary grief.

The coffee shop was less than two hundred meters ahead. Bai Yiran could even clearly see the illuminated sign and hear Lou Jing’s exaggerated voice.

Yet she was grabbed by a large hand from behind less than two hundred meters from home, forcibly pulled into the Maybach familiar to her beyond words.

The familiar and intense masculine scent enveloped her instantly.

"Leng Yichen..."
