After being reborn, the aloof female CEO became a paranoid.

Although I already knew I was pregnant, I still couldn't help but cry when the doctor announced the news.

Suddenly I remembered that Zhou Yu is now working at the Bodu Academy of Painting. If he gets pregnant at this time, can he still stick to his dream?

Will Zhou Yu still go to work at the Bodu Art Academy, which he has always longed for, once he finds out he is pregnant?

This man... will probably go.

Hearing the doctor's words, Zhou Yu was stunned for a long time, but then his face revealed an uncontrollable joy.

Very good!

Their child has finally arrived, and they can finally have a complete family.

The arrival of this little life is not only the fruit of their love, but also, for Zhou Yu, the happiness he has always been pursuing.

He once loved her deeply, but she hurt him time and time again for other men, until he later learned that they had an unborn child.

He, as the father, only learned that the child had existed in the world when he saw the bloody D&C surgery report and pregnancy test results.

The only proof that it existed was two thin, cold lab reports...

Thinking of this, Xu Xinran's eyes became dark and unbearable.

She suppressed the mixed feelings in her heart and gently hugged Zhou Yu. "Zhou Yu, can you hear me? We have a child! We finally have a child! That's wonderful... No matter what happens in the future, I will stand by your side. I will protect you with my life and never let you and the child suffer even the slightest harm again."

Xu Xinran looked at him with slightly red eyes and a smile on her face, "Zhou Yu, is there anything you want to eat? I won't eat anything too spicy this time, it's not good for the baby."

Xu Xinran suppressed her chaotic emotions, raised her head slightly, and tried to express her love in a protective manner.

But the moment Xu Xinran's pink lips touched Zhou Yu's face, what she saw was not the joy and excitement of nervously welcoming a new life, but hesitation and a fleeting expression, an expression that was both evasive and hesitant to speak.

Xu Xinran froze, as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over her head, making her feel as if she had fallen into an ice cave.

Xu Xinran's lips moved slightly, her hoarse voice strained and labored, and it took her a long time to manage to speak, "Zhou Yu, you...you don't actually want this child, do you?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu opened his mouth, but after hesitating for a moment, he ultimately did not utter a single word.

It's not that he doesn't want the child; he's happy to have a baby with the person he loves.

But... it was too sudden.

This caught him completely off guard.

Although he loves children and had thought about having one before, the complex feelings he had after learning he was about to become a husband were not something he could easily change in a short time.

He needs to calm down and needs some time to process this.

Not receiving a reply from Zhou Yu, Xu Xinran's heart turned completely cold. She lowered her head slightly to look at him, taking in his struggling expression.

Xu Xinran curved her lips into a smile, feeling as if she had swallowed a bitter pill, making her too afraid to even move.

Having been given a second chance at life, I never imagined that their roles would be reversed, and completely reversed at that.

His love for her, his fondness for children, and his hopes for the future have all turned into clouds in the sky, as if they could dissipate at any moment.

But she became conflicted, hesitant, and anxious.

For so long, she has made so many efforts to win back Zhou Yu's heart.

But it seemed that no matter what she did, it was to no avail; his love for her could never be the same as it had been in their past life.

Xu Xinran forced a weak, unsightly smile as she endured the excruciating pain in her heart. "Zhou Yu, you should go home first. I... I suddenly remembered that I have some things to take care of at the company. I've been putting off work for so many days, and I need to go and resolve them. We can talk about the child later."

Seeing the woman's state, Zhou Yu suddenly became worried, "Xu Xinran, I think you might have misunderstood. I didn't mean it that way..."

Before he could finish speaking, Xu Xinran suddenly chuckled softly and gently took his hand. "I'm fine. I wasn't thinking anything. It's just that something really happened at the company... You should go back first. I'll be careful. We can talk about it when I get home."

Zhou Yu: "...Okay."

Back home, Zhou Yu sighed heavily, looked at the ultrasound report, and muttered to himself, "Baby, did your mom misunderstand your dad? Is she really angry?"

The manor was quiet, and no one could answer him.

……

Meanwhile, Xu Xinran drove to a bar.

The bar was dimly lit, with flashes of colorful lights.

Xu Xinran leaned her slender back against the leather sofa, her god-like, meticulously sculpted face hidden in the darkness, her eyes bloodshot.

She cried, and large tears fell from her eyes.

Laura stared at her helplessly, "Sister, stop crying, it's bad for the baby if you keep crying!"

Xu Xinran squinted, tears welling in her eyes, but they were swallowed by the dim light. "What should I do..."

"you……"

Laura was about to say something when she was interrupted again by the woman on the sofa who was crying uncontrollably. "What should I do... I really love Zhou Yu so much. I would give him my life, but I don't know what to do with him... What do I have to do for him to truly accept me?!"

“And our child, he used to love the child so much. He was willing to put aside his dignity and beg me to keep the baby when I got pregnant. Why? Why is everything different now? It's one thing for him to suddenly stop liking me, but why doesn't he like the child either? That's our child…”

Hearing the woman's words, Laura's lips twitched slightly. "Xinran, have you cried yourself silly? When were you ever pregnant? Isn't this your and his first child? And who's to blame for this mess? It's all your own doing..."

As they talked, Laura crossed her legs and sat down on the sofa with her, handing her a tissue. "Tell me, when you married Zhou Yu, how much did that young man like you? His eyes were full of love for you. You ignored the handsome man at home and insisted on going out to find some other man. Now you realize how good he was to you? Isn't it too late?"

Xu Xinran's voice was tinged with a hint of vulnerability, "I know it's all my fault. I've tried so hard to win him over. I trust him, and I'll stand by him no matter what happens, but... why doesn't he want to keep our child..."
