My Toxic Ex-Wife: BOSS, Stay Away！-Chapter 555 - 653: I’m Pregnant

Leng Yixiu was a bit surprised when he received Shi Yi’s call, "Miss Shi?"

"It’s me."

"I wonder what Miss Shi is calling about?"

"It’s very important. When is Mr. Leng available? I’d like to talk in person."

What could be so important that it needs to be discussed face-to-face?

Although Leng Yixiu was puzzled, he finally agreed. According to Shi Yi’s suggestion, they arranged to meet at a café near Shi Yi’s neighborhood. When Leng Yixiu arrived, Shi Yi was already there, having arrived ahead of him.

The man sat opposite Shi Yi, raised his eyes to look at her, and said in a deep voice, "I have a meeting this afternoon, Miss Shi, just get to the point."

"Mr. Leng, you’re very busy, but rest assured, I won’t take up much of your time." Shi Yi disliked beating around the bush and didn’t want to waste each other’s time. She was prepared to get straight to the point.

However, at that moment, an unexpected guest suddenly appeared in the café. Neither Shi Yi nor Leng Yixiu expected Gu Yilin to suddenly show up here.

"Yixiu, so you’re here. I called you just now, why didn’t you pick up?"

Leng Yixiu glanced at his phone, which had gone black, and explained mildly, "The phone might be out of battery. How did you know I was here?"

"Assistant Chen said you were here, so I came over. I was going to wait for you at home, but I couldn’t stand the long wait and was eager to tell you some good news. Dear, I’m pregnant!"

Gu Yilin’s words fell directly into Shi Yi’s ears. In that instant, she felt as if her heart had been ruthlessly pierced by something.

She instinctively raised her eyes to look at the man opposite her, only to see that his handsome face remained calm, but his deep eyes were filled with a myriad of emotions—daze, shock, and even joy. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

For a long while, the man didn’t react at all. Shi Yi thought that hearing this news, he was probably so happy that he didn’t know how to react for a moment.

Shi Yi’s fingers slowly tightened, and for a while, she couldn’t describe the feelings in her heart. She was pregnant; Gu Yilin was also pregnant. But the difference between them was like night and day. Gu Yilin was Leng Yixiu’s fiancée, so it was only natural for her to be pregnant with Leng Yixiu’s child. But she, hers was just an accident, and she might even be despised by many.

She suddenly wanted to know, if she told Leng Yixiu about her pregnancy, what would his reaction be. But she ultimately gave up the idea, the answer was all too obvious. If before, there was still a slight possibility that Leng Yixiu might accept this child, then after knowing that Gu Yilin was pregnant, he would absolutely not accept the existence of this child.

Gu Yilin, seeing that Leng Yixiu hadn’t reacted for a long time, jokingly said, "Silly, are you so happy that you’re stunned?"

The man finally came back to his senses, looking at her with a stern face, "Have you seen a doctor?"

"Uh... not yet. I only used a test strip first. I heard that brand of test strips is very accurate. I think there’s a high chance that I’m pregnant." Gu Yilin wrapped her arms around the man’s neck and whispered, "We’ll go to the hospital for a checkup to confirm it. When do you have time?"

Shi Yi looked indifferently at the two people interacting intimately in front of her, feeling that she was a completely irrelevant outsider. She felt there was no need for her to stay here any longer.

"Since Mr. Leng has other matters to attend to, I won’t disturb you." Shi Yi picked up her handbag and stood up from her seat.

It was only at this moment that Gu Yilin seemed to notice there was someone else sitting opposite Leng Yixiu. She turned her eyes to look at Shi Yi and smiled, "Yixiu, who is this lady?"

Leng Yixiu shifted his gaze to Shi Yi, "She is Leng’s former partner, the CEO of Lei Man Company headquarters—Miss Shi Yi."

"So, it’s Miss Shi. I’ve heard so much about you, meeting you in person is even better. Miss Shi is truly talented and beautiful."

"Miss Gu overpraises me, I hardly deserve ’talented and beautiful’. Besides, I am no longer the CEO of Lei Man. This news will be officially announced in a few days."

"You left Lei Man?" Leng Yixiu frowned and asked.

Shi Yi nodded.

"Because of the last incident?"

"No, I just felt a bit tired and wanted to take a break." Shi Yi smiled and prepared to leave, "Mr. Leng, Miss Gu, you two continue chatting, I won’t disturb you anymore."

Saying this, Shi Yi picked up her handbag and was about to leave, but was suddenly stopped by Leng Yixiu.

"Miss Shi, didn’t you ask me to meet you here, saying you had something to tell me? What is it?"

Shi Yi’s face changed slightly, then she calmly said, "Actually, it’s nothing urgent, Mr. Leng doesn’t need to worry about it."

Watching Shi Yi’s departing figure, for some reason, Leng Yixiu felt as if something was slipping away from his life. He quickly pulled his mind back, laughing self-deprecatingly. What was wrong with him? Shi Yi said it was not important, so why should he be so concerned about it?

Leaving the cafe, Shi Yi once again fell into a dilemma. She knew clearly that given the current situation, Leng Yixiu would never acknowledge this child. If she insisted on having it, the child’s future wouldn’t be easy, and perhaps it might even resent her in the end. But to abort this child, she couldn’t bring herself to be that ruthless.

She raised her head to look at the cloudless sky, silently telling herself to wait a bit longer, give herself more time to think.

Time silently slipped away, and before she knew it, it was the eve of Leng Yixiu’s wedding. Two days before the wedding, information about Leng Yixiu and Gu Yilin’s wedding was everywhere on the internet and television.

It was said that this wedding would gather social elites from various fields. To hold this wedding, Leng Yixiu spent a fortune. Everything from the setting of the wedding venue, the wedding dress, to the wedding ring, was designed by specialists, with every detail striving for perfection. It was said that it would be a fairy-tale wedding.

To this, Shi Yi only responded with a smile. She gently caressed her flat belly, her heart filled with mixed emotions. Inside her was a tiny life growing, while the child’s father was about to hold a wedding with another woman.

Shi Yi glanced at the golden invitation card on the coffee table, the corners of her lips curling into a mocking smile. Though she had no deep obsession with Leng Yixiu, she still didn’t want to attend his and Gu Yilin’s wedding.

She didn’t want to make herself too pitiable.

On the day of Leng Yixiu’s wedding, Shi Yi dragged her suitcase alone, walking step by step out of the neighborhood.

She booked a ten o’clock flight. While in the United States, she had always wanted to visit Jiuzhaigou, but never had the time. Now that she was free, she wanted to travel a bit, to relax her mind.

However, what she didn’t know was that as soon as she stepped out of the neighborhood gates, she was immediately followed by someone.
