When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase-Chapter 555: Mrs. Sheng’s Secret (5)

Even though she was pregnant, Tang Yanqi still didn’t want to quit her job. She liked this job and hadn’t been working long; quitting now would make her seem too flippant about work.

Although Sheng Jianan did not agree, he still respected her opinion. Tang Yanqi wasn’t an ordinary girl; she had her own ideas and could protect herself. Rather than restricting her in everything, Sheng Jianan understood that what she needed more was respect and recognition.

However, Sheng Jianan had his own persistence. He transferred Xiao Li back to continue being Tang Yanqi’s personal driver and also prepared a revamped car for her. The car wasn’t very fast, but its safety was top-notch.

Tang Yanqi’s lunch was also specially prepared. Every noon, Xiao Li would bring her the freshest ingredients.

Strangely, apart from feeling nauseous from the smell of egg tarts that one time, Tang Yanqi didn’t experience anything similar. On the contrary, her appetite was much better than before, and she ate significantly more. Her once thin and almost meatless face now gradually appeared fuller.

Coincidentally, it was the weekend, Sheng Jianan had to go out, and Tang Yanqi invited Qi Cheng and the others to her villa. She hadn’t told them about her pregnancy until now. As soon as she mentioned it, Qi Cheng immediately jumped up, "I want to be a godmother."

Bai Bing shot her a glance, "How can someone without a boyfriend be a godmother?"

"Who says you can’t be a godmother without a boyfriend?"

"You just can’t."

Listening to their bickering, Tang Yanqi and Bai Xue exchanged a look. Bai Xue was as gentle as always, while the little woman in love seemed to have a brighter glow.

She placed her hand on Tang Yanqi’s belly, "Tangtang, do you feel anything now?"

"It’s still too early. Apart from feeling it in my heart, I don’t feel anything physically yet."

Tang Yanqi’s belly was still very flat. She was naturally thin, showing no signs of pregnancy at all.

After lunch, the four of them basked in the sun in the garden. Tang Yanqi started talking about something she discovered earlier. After listening, Qi Cheng and Bai Bing both simultaneously raised their middle fingers.

"Damn, how much more shameless can this woman get?"

"To come up with such a way to fan the flames at that time—it’s true that the most venomous heart is a woman’s."

Bai Xue didn’t join in cursing but instead asked, "Tangtang, did you tell Mr. Sheng?"

Tang Yanqi shook her head, took a sip of juice, and looked indifferent, "Those things are in the past. They did those things to try and separate Jianan and me, but they failed. Since they failed, there’s no need to bring it up again. Besides, if he knew and went to settle accounts with his mother and Shen Yao, wouldn’t that also hurt him?"

Qi Cheng flared up, "So you’re just going to endure it?"

"It’s not enduring. It’s pointless. No matter what, that is his mother."

Bai Bing nodded. She was more rational. Although Tang Yanqi’s approach didn’t sound satisfying, in the end, even if Sheng Jianan and Mrs. Sheng severed their mother-son relationship because of it, would it really be good for Sheng Jianan or her?

"What if she makes trouble for you again in the future?"

Tang Yanqi chuckled softly, her eyes slightly raised, "Do you really think I’m that easy to bully?"

She didn’t say anything because she didn’t want her loved ones to get hurt, even if just a little. Just like when she avoided Sheng Jianan to keep him from any trouble.
