Chapter 160 -160: Waiting for Her to Turn Over
“I don’t know what you like to eat, so I asked the kitchen to prepare a variety of dishes,” Lin Shuhuan said to Tang Yu.
“I’m not picky. Thank you,” Tang Yu replied.
“Three months pregnant, right? I couldn’t tell you were showing when you came in. Aren’t you too thin? You need to eat more,” Lin Shuhuan said.
“I’ve been to the hospital; the baby is healthy,” Tang Yu said.
“That’s good.” Seeing that all the dishes were served, Lin Shuhuan said, “Let’s eat!”
As they picked up their chopsticks to start, the sound of footsteps approached from outside the dining room, the steady, forceful pace did not seem like that of a servant.
Sure enough, Ye Yuli walked into the dining room and sat down in an empty seat, “Sorry, it seems I’m late.”
There was no sign of apology on his face.
“It’s fine, you arrived just in time.” Lin Shuhuan hadn’t seen her son for a long time, and a smile appeared on her previously indifferent face. “Let’s eat.”
The dining atmosphere was very quiet, creating a sense of oppression.
Tang Yu, hearing Ye Sihan’s words, just focused on eating.
Ye Sihan served her a bowl of soup and then started peeling shrimp.
He placed the peeled shrimp directly into Tang Yu’s bowl.
Tang Yu picked up the shrimp with her chopsticks and ate it naturally.
The other three people watched, each with a different expression.
“You got her pregnant with your child, are you planning to marry her?” Ye Yuli suddenly spoke, looking coldly at Ye Sihan. “Brother, will the next meal be your wedding feast?”
The atmosphere at the table became even more oppressive.
Ye Sihan, his dark eyes collected, calmly peeled shrimp, his silent aura intimidating.
Tang Yu felt uncomfortable; it was impossible for Ye Sihan to marry her. To even think in that direction was to degrade herself.
The agreement was that she would be free after the baby was born.
A flicker of resentment and contempt passed through Zhou Qinghua’s eyes—she did not want Ye Sihan to marry Tang Yu at all!
Tang Yu should live in the world of the poor for her entire life, looking up to her!
“Tang Yu is already three months along; a wedding dress won’t fit well now. Let’s talk about it after the child is born,” Lin Shuhuan broke the silence, being the one who least wanted Ye Sihan to marry Tang Yu. Women acting as mistresses to rich men and bearing their illegitimate children were common, and Tang Yu was just one of them.
“So, you brought her back just to have a child for you?” Ye Yuli asked with a cold face. “I’m sure there are plenty of women out there who would want to have your child!”
Ye Sihan turned his chilling black eyes towards Ye Yuli, his presence instantly filled with intimidating hostility.
Seeing this, Lin Shuhuan immediately tried to smooth things over, “Yuli, don’t start with your brother as soon as you come back, or I will get angry. It’s perfectly normal for your brother to want a child at his age. If you brought home a child without getting married, I would accept it too. However, a paternity test is necessary.” She glanced contemptuously at Tang Yu, “Tang Yu is three months pregnant and can undergo amniocentesis for paternity testing. Sihan, I think it’s better to be cautious.”
Tang Yu kept her eyes downcast, chewing the shrimp in her mouth slowly.
She could tell that Lin Shuhuan was reminding Ye Sihan that the child in her belly might belong to someone else.
Would Ye Sihan do it? It would be harmless for him.
“No need,” came Ye Sihan’s voice, devoid of warmth.
“I know you’re certain about the child, but it’s just for peace of mind, right? In case…” Lin Shuhuan wanted to continue.
“She wouldn’t dare,” Ye Sihan said, looking at Tang Yu with utterly abyssal eyes.
Tang Yu, so close to him, shivered, choking on the shrimp as she swallowed, “Cough, cough, cough! Cough…”
Ye Sihan gently patted her back and brought water to her lips, “Open your mouth.”
Tang Yu immediately opened her mouth and took a sip, her coughing subsiding. Her little face turned red, and her eyes misted over.
“Are you feeling uncomfortable?” Ye Sihan asked.
Tang Yu shook her head.
“It’s not hot now.” After testing the temperature, Ye Sihan handed her the bowl of soup.
Tang Yu lowered her head and drank the soup.
The dining table was so quiet that only the sound of Tang Yu drinking soup could be heard.
The way Ye Sihan treated Tang Yu was evident to Lin Shuhuan, Zhou Qinghua, and Ye Yuli.
But in Ye Sihan’s eyes, there was only Tang Yu.
Ever since the meal started, he had been serving her soup, peeling shrimp, and even patting her back when she choked. Were these things Ye Sihan would do?
It must be for the child, right?
Even though this was the thought, the air in the entire dining room was exceptionally oppressive.
Zhou Qinghua fetched two glasses, filled them with wine, and walked over to Ye Sihan, “Big Brother Ye, I was thoughtless before, and I deeply regret it. Please forgive my ignorance. Help yourself, I’ll drink this wine.”
Having said that, he downed the wine in his glass in a few gulps.
Ye Sihan’s face was expressionless, his presence oppressive, making people wary.
Seeing this, Zhou Qinghua immediately realized, “Please also forgive me, Tang Yu, including what I did to you when we were studying. I was young then, arrogant, building my happiness on the pain of others. I deserve to die! Tang Yu, can you overlook this, for the sake of having been classmates, and let Big Brother Ye not be angry anymore? This is my wine of apology!”
He then downed another two glasses.
Tang Yu had not expected this turn of events.
So, this was the real purpose behind Zhou Qinghua’s appearance.
If Lin Shuhuan wanted Ye Yuli to marry Zhou Qinghua, the Zhou Family couldn’t afford any mishaps.
However, whether to forgive Zhou Qinghua or not was no longer Tang Yu’s decision to make.
After all, it also involved Ye Yuli.
Tang Yu was all too aware of Ye Sihan’s obsessive possessiveness.
A single wrong word could not only offend Lin Shuhuan but also provoke this terrifying man.
And yet, Ye Sihan wouldn’t let her off the hook, “What do you say?”
Tang Yu remained composed, “I’m pregnant now and shouldn’t stress myself, you decide!”
Using the child as an excuse couldn’t be better.
Zhou Qinghua hurriedly continued to plead, “Big Brother Ye, I really made a mistake, since the incident, I’ve been reflecting every day and have decided to behave properly from now on. If I err again, you can kill me! Please forgive my ignorance for the sake of Aunt Lin and Yuli?”
Lin Shuhuan also added her plea, “Qinghua just likes Yuli too much, that’s why she went to trouble you. Tang Yu, let’s just let bygones be bygones, shall we?”
Tang Yu frowned slightly, why involve Ye Yuli? It sounded as though she was competing with Zhou Qinghua for Ye Yuli, which caused all those issues!
Being close, she immediately sensed the chilling shift in Ye Sihan’s aura.
Ye Sihan, after wiping his hands with a hot towel handed by a servant, spoke with a cold voice, “What about the marriage between the Zhou Family and Yuli?”
His question seemed unrelated to Zhou Qinghua’s plea for mercy, but one could quickly discern the profound implications within.
That’s why listening to Ye Sihan required a level of intelligence not everyone could muster under such oppressive dominance.
Lin Shuhuan, realizing the significance, promptly said, “Isn’t the engagement already in place? Naturally, the marriage is still on.”
Zhou Qinghua, hearing this, felt a secret joy and looked admiringly at Ye Yuli.
However, the latter’s expression turned ugly, “The marriage was canceled long ago.”
Lin Shuhuan frowned and scolded him, “What are you doing? Do you want the Zhou Family to be destroyed?”
“I only found out later that the Zhou Family’s troubles were because of you,” Ye Yuli’s cold gaze turned to Zhou Qinghua, “At first, I pleaded for your family out of ignorance, but now I think you brought this upon yourselves.”
“Unacceptable, I have the final say!” Lin Shuhuan asserted. “Listen to yourself, what kind of talk is that? Hasn’t the Zhou Family been good to you? Haven’t your Uncle Zhou and the others treated you well? If there’s a chance to save them, why wouldn’t you, instead of abandoning them to their fate? And, why must you make things so difficult with your brother?”
The more she spoke, the angrier she became, and tears streamed down her face.
Ye Yuli’s face darkened to the extreme.
After Ye Sihan finished cleaning his hands and had dried Tang Yu’s as well, he finally spoke, “Let the marriage continue, and let the Zhou Family’s matter be dropped.”
He then took Tang Yu and left.

Completely indifferent to the tense atmosphere left behind in the restaurant.
From leaving the villa to getting in the car, Tang Yu had not said a word throughout.
With those words from Ye Sihan, the decision was made for Ye Yuli.
Yet, Tang Yu felt that Ye Yuli would agree.
Just like how he had agreed to break up with her upon Lin Shuhuan’s request.
She wasn’t blaming Ye Yuli but acknowledging the nature of humanity.
It was the pressure from loved ones that makes one the most helpless in this world…
Zhou Qinghua drove away from the villa, her face twisted in anger.
Her life’s biggest joke had unfolded today, all because of Tang Yu, deepening her resentment towards Tang Yu!
If not for Tang Yu, would she be this unfortunate?
All that about asking for forgiveness and acknowledging her ignorance, those were all against her will!
No hurry, once she turned her fortunes around, she wouldn’t let Tang Yu off the hook! Dreaming of becoming valued by having Ye Sihan’s child? In her dreams!
