Ye Xiaomeng had always been thankful to have met He Ming, believing it was a blessing from above. However, now she dared not think that way anymore. It seemed that even the heavens weren’t particularly favoring her.
She didn’t know why he lied to her. If he had openly admitted to sending a female classmate home, she wouldn’t have thought much of it, as it’s only natural.
However, he was ambiguous or hesitant, which made her feel something amiss.
She said calmly, “He Ming, I think I’m very accommodating in that aspect. I don’t have anything to say about what you like. But now that I’m pregnant, there’s no way…”
Ye Xiaomeng choked up and couldn’t continue.
“Mengmeng, no, I didn’t.” He Ming was so anxious that he wanted to kneel to her.
“Think about it. Recently, other than the occasional social gatherings after work, I’ve always been back home very quickly. The rest of the time, I’m at home with you. How can I have time to look for other women? How could I have the energy to be with other women? A female classmate drank a little yesterday, so I gave her a ride home. That’s all.”
He Ming quickly confessed. He was really unlucky. There would always be some minor problems during good days.
“Then why did you lie to me in the beginning?” Ye Xiaomeng stared at him, trying to read from his expression.
“I was afraid that you would overthink. Therefore…” He Ming felt that he had a knack for attracting trouble. Everything was going well, but then such minor problems would arise.
“An excuse.” Ye Xiaomeng looked skeptical.
“If you don’t believe me, I can call her right now before you.” He Ming looked calm. He didn’t do anything unfaithful to Xiaomeng, so he wasn’t afraid.
“I’ll call her now.” Seeing Xiaomeng was silent, He Ming continued.
“Go ahead.” Ye Xiaomeng turned around and looked at his helpless expression. Her messy thoughts calmed down a little. “You call in front of me. Switch on the speaker.”
Hearing what he said, Ye Xiaomeng agreed.
He Ming felt a little hurt. Xiaomeng didn’t believe him.
However, he was not afraid. He really did not do it, so he nodded obediently.
He took out his phone and dialed the number. Soon, the call connected.
Yao Ning’s cheerful voice came from the other end of the phone. “He Ming, it’s you?”
“Yes, did you drop your lipstick in my car yesterday?” He Ming asked. Other than her, there was no one else.
“Oh, no wonder I couldn’t find it when I came home. It was actually in your car. That’s great. Just leave it with Auntie if it’s convenient for you. I’ll visit her when I’m free and get it back.”
What Yao Ning said was reasonable, but He Ming broke out in a cold sweat. Wasn’t it obvious?
He looked at Ye Xiaomeng beside him. She was sitting on the sofa, looking pale and expressionless.
“Alright.” He Ming could only bite the bullet and agree.
After hanging up the phone, He Ming slowly came to Xiaomeng’s side and explained, “She was the attending doctor when my mother was admitted the last time. She’s also my classmate. I only knew about it when we met at the hospital.”
Ye Xiaomeng sneered. She suddenly felt she was a joke. No, a fool, a big fool.
She called her Auntie affectionately. She had a good job and was a good person. What about herself? She had always been despised.
It turned out that she was the bad one. After comparison, she seemed worse than others.
“I’m redundant. Look at how harmoniously your family gets along. What else are you hiding from me? Don’t treat me like a fool.” Ye Xiaomeng was disheartened.
So, it turned out it was the same girl she had seen at the hospital previously. She was really outstanding, and Ye Xiaomeng couldn’t help but feel inferior in comparison.
