Seeing the lipstick in his car now, she would be even more prone to overthinking.
After all, a woman had seated and left a lipstick with ulterior motives.
Did she do this because she wanted her to find out and make a scene so that she could reap the benefits?
She wouldn’t do as she wished, but He Ming’s attitude of hiding it was really despicable.
He thought she was a fool that he could manipulate, but he was wrong.
She would ask him nicely. What was his intention?
“Don’t overthink. Take good care of your pregnancy and ask him properly when the time comes,” Shu Pan persuaded.
“How about we meet up tonight and talk?” Shu Pan continued, but Ye Xiaomeng wanted to go back and ask He Ming tonight.
She was straightforward and didn’t like to beat around the bush.
Ye Xiaomeng thought about the matter all day and thus was gloomy and depressed.
In the past, she wouldn’t overthink. But now that she was pregnant, she was worried about many things.
Soon, it was at night, and He Ming came to pick Ye Xiaomeng up.
On the way home, Ye Xiaomeng was silent without uttering a sound. She was brewing her emotions and determined not to let him lead the conversation this time.
“Xiaomeng, what do you feel like eating?” He Ming asked with concern.
“Anything.” Xiao Meng’s voice was a little stiff.
“Then let’s go for noodles, okay?” She ate a lot of noodles that day and didn’t vomit.
Xiao Meng seemed to have guessed what he was thinking.
“Alright. He Ming, did you send anyone home yesterday?” Ye Xiaomeng couldn’t help but ask.
“No, I didn’t. Why did you ask this?” He Ming felt that it was better to avoid unnecessary trouble. Xiaomeng had been unreasonable lately. He didn’t see the point of getting worked up over trivial matters.
When Ye Xiaomeng heard what he said, she took out the lipstick angrily and asked fiercely, “I found this in the passenger seat. Whose lipstick is this?”
He Ming was stunned and frowned. “Isn’t it yours?”
However, upon closer inspection, it was indeed not Xiaomeng’s favorite color. It was bright red. Moreover, Xiaomeng rarely put on makeup after she was pregnant and basically did not use lipstick anymore.
He Ming felt very regretful. He had indeed shot himself in the foot.
It would not have been a big deal if he had told the truth. After all, it was normal to send his classmates home.
However, he was rather puzzled. How could it be such a coincidence? There was only a lipstick on the seat. It was such a personal item.
He Ming suddenly felt as if he was on fire. Since he was young, he had never understood the feeling of being wronged. Only now did he know how scary it was.
“I remember now. It indeed isn’t yours. I guess my classmate dropped it when I sent her home yesterday.”
He Ming felt that it was better to be frank. She would find out anyway. Moreover, there was nothing between them in the past.
Sitting on the sofa, he looked at Xiaomeng’ with a sorrowful expression. Suddenly, he grabbed his hair tightly as if he wanted to pull off all the hair on his body just to clarify this matter. “If you insist on me saying it, I really didn’t do anything unfaithful to you. I really don’t know how that lipstick ended up in the car. Besides you, I really don’t have any other woman.”
Ye Xiaomeng sneered. “How many men would openly admit to having an affair outside? You usually like to be in the car the most. Tell me, did you get in the car with another woman behind my back…”
She couldn’t continue speaking. Just thinking about that scene disgusted her. Sometimes, she really lacked confidence in love and marriage. It was through seeing his efforts and witnessing his devotion to her that made her believe in love.
Now, she hoped that he would not disappoint her.
