It has been two months and one week since Qin Shimei last saw Ju-long. During the past months, a lot of things happened. The day when Qin Shimei used the pregnancy test and was tested positive, Zhi Ruo changed her working schedule so she can stay home more to cook for Qin Shimei. Zhi Ruo knew that Qin Shimei will eventually start to get mentally stressed out from school, work, and following up with her OBGYN so as a best friend, she didn't mind doing the cooking. But every night at six o'clock, Zhi Ruo would leave to go clubbing and would come back home at one o'clock in the morning like usual.
Another thing that happened is Qin Shimei's pale complexions turned healthier. Her immune system became stronger and she grew another two inches taller!
Last but not least, Qin Shimei told General Zhi and Auntie Zhi that she was pregnant, but she did not exposed the baby daddy's information but the Zhi couple were not bothered by it as long as Qin Shimei is happy. On the other hand, Qin Shimei wasn't planning to tell her family because she rarely saw them, but somehow her older sister Qin Bai leaked the news out, causing Qin Shimei and Xing Jian's engagement to break off. Qin Shimei was a little hurt when the engagement was called off; however, because of this, she realized that she did not truly love Xing Jian. Her feelings were more like how a fan felt towards their idol.
*************************************
Qin Shimei pulled over her black Lykan HyperSport car by the curb in front of a coffee shop across the street from her OBGYN. After parking her car, she stopped by the traffic light pole along with some people in front of her. The traffic lights changed and the pedestrian sign switched to green for Qin Shimei and other people to cross over. Qin Shimei was busy rubbing her small bump, thinking and making plans for the future so her baby can have a better life.
Qin Shimei wore a warm smile on her face when thinking back this morning before leaving the condo to her OBGYN appointment.
Twenty minutes before she left to her OBGYN.
Zhi Ruo pleaded Qin Shimei with a puppy dog eyes. "Little Shimei, can I please go with you to your ultrasound appointment today? Please? I haven't seen my baby since your first ultrasound!"
Qin Shimei rolled her eyes and let out a helpless sigh. "No Zhi Zhi, you have work today. We need money to pay for the bills and for baby stuff as well. We haven't even bought the crib yet."
Zhi Ruo pouted her lips. Pfft, as if they needed to worry about money. Although she wasn't a bounty hunter, she was sure that she could collect money from somewhere with her skills. Zhi Ruo needed to buy lots of baby toys for her godchild!
"Fine, but you better call me first when you find out the gender of my cute baby niece or nephew! This auntie is going to be the best auntie the baby will have in the whole wide world!" Maybe she could secretly teach the child a few tricks when Qin Shimei isn't looking?
"Yeah, just don't take my baby to go clubbing every night then I will award you The Best Auntie Winning Award Plaque."
Zhi Ruo rolled her eyes. She bent down to face Qin Shimei's tiny bump.
"Well, just so you know little one, this Auntie here is the best killer in the club." She straighten up and face Qin Shimei who is currently raising her left eyebrow. "What? The guys on the floor can't keep up with my moves. Can't blame them if I'm too flashy on the dance floor."
The corners of Qin Shimei's lips twitched when she saw Zhi Ruo flick her hair in a conceited way. Qin Shimei couldn't watch her shamelessness anymore and turned to the door.
Qin Shimei waved at Zhi Ruo. "I promise to call you first once I find out my baby's gender."
Turning her back, Qin Shimei did not notice Zhi Ruo's worried face. For some reason, Zhi Ruo's been having a strong vibe that something bad is going to happen today.
Zhi Ruo worriedly replied back. "Okay... wait, Little Shimei!"
Qin Shimei tossed her head around to look at Zhi Ruo. She was confused as to why the female looked so worried. Zhi Ruo helplessly smiled at Qin Shimei and said, "Be careful on your way out."
"Don't worry, nothing is going to happen." She let out some chuckles and turned to exit out.
Even after the door closed, Zhi Ruo stared at the empty spot where Qin Shimei stood with dull and glassy eyes. Her fingers itched behind her back, feeling the small and cool blade hidden from her roommate's view. Maybe... should Zhi Ruo go out and check?
Back to the present, Qin Shimei let out a light sigh but her focus is still on the small bump and with a warm smile on her face.
In a tall glass building on the very top floor, a handsome man with raven black hair and pure gold eyes sat on a dark brown leather chair. In front of him was a small white box and next to it was a dime sized tracking device, the same one that Qin Shimei placed on the semi truck! Ju-long grabbed the small device and burn it to ashes.
Ju-long got up from the chair and walked to the window. He's been feeling unsettled since this morning. He couldn't sit still and his consciousness has been telling him that something bad would happen to Qin Shimei.
He looked down at his hand, glancing at the small white box. Ju-long opened the white box to reveal a beautiful engagement ring with wedding bands. Below the beautiful ring was a black ring with silver lining around it.
A glint of gentleness was seen in Ju-long's eyes but it quickly disappeared
A glint of gentleness was seen in Ju-long's eyes but it quickly disappeared. He hoped to see the rings to help stop the unsettling feelings inside his heart, instead the feeling became stronger. The white box in his hand vanished in thin air. Ju-long moved his gaze straight ahead, looking at the city below him. But his lips began to frown.
Ju-long saw big, stormy dark clouds with flashes of thunder hanging over the city in a rapid speed. Ju-long's eyes narrowed and his frown got deeper. The dark clouds were abnormal. There were mixes of purple and blue coloring to it. But the cloud only hung around around the area where Qin Shimei's OBGYN clinic is at! Ju-long's heart started to pound loud and fast. Once the first wave of thunder striked down, the earth trembled and heavy rain fell down.
