4:05 and
Her body was burning with heat as strong as
volcanic lava, and the only one who could
save her, was the man before her...
She clung tightly to the cold marble-like skin,
her survival instinct eventually making her
give up all resistance...
Pain was accompanied by pleasure slowly
rising bit by bit, like a firework display going
off in her mind, making her feel like she was
a lone boat in a sea of fire...
Rising, then sinking, it was hard for her to
free herself--
"Hey, wake up.. It's cold here, don't catch a
cold--"
The pressure on her shoulders caused Ning
Xi to wake up abruptly; her disoriented gaze
met with the concerned eyes of the nurse. In
an instant, her guilty conscience made her
face blush, she wished she could crawl into a
hole in the ground as she avoided the nurse's
gaze in shame.
Damn, although it has already been such a
long time after that one drurnken night, that
hot night she had with Su Yan kept appearing
in her dreams from time to time.
Thanks to being drunk to the point of
unconsciousness, she did not have much
memory of that night, otherwise she would
not know how to face Yan-gege.
The nurse saw that she had finally woken up,
and passed the papers in her hands to her:
"You forgot to take your pregnancy health
results, Dr Zhang would like you to come again next
week!"
Ning Xi received the report, smiled sweetly, and carefully
placed the papers in her own purse.
Su Yan was still studying overseas, he was coming back
tonight. Thinking of the meeting tonight, Ning Xi unconsciously
tensed up.
Because the area Su Yan was at was too inaccessible, it was
only until the child was more than 7 months old that she finally
contacted him.
Thinking of the shock that Su Yan had when he found out she
was pregnant, Ning Xi was a little nervous.
Was it because she was particularly sensitive due to the
pregnancy? Ning Xi felt that Su Yan was not as happy as she
was about this.
The doctor reassured her saying that men were always like
that with their first child, their mentality would take some time
to change
But... it couldn't be that, even regarding marriage, she would
have to be the one to speak up?
The sun was burning brightly in the sky when she came out of
the hospital.
Ning Xi struggled to support her waist, just as she was about
to wave down a taxi, a dazzling red sports car rushed towards
her.
Ning Xi's heart thumped, and she retreated quite a few steps
back.
Only to hear a screeching sound from the brakes, as the red
sports car just brushed over the edge of her clothes, before
stopping abruptly.
Ning Xi's heart almost stopped; after slowly regaining her
footing, she saw a woman, wearing a body-hugging red dress,
toss her wavy hair as she stepped down from the car.
"Ning Xueluo, are you crazy?"
Ning Xueluo looked at her, laughing with deep meaning. With
crossed arms, as if strutting on the catwalk, she swayed as
she walked until she stood in front of Ning Xi. Using the
advantage of her high heels, she arrogantly looked down on
the big bellied Ning Xi: "What? Scared that l'l kill the bastard in
your stomach?"
Ning Xi subconsciously protected her abdomen, taking a step
back, she looked at her warily: "Ning Xueluo! Don't you go too
far!"
Despite knowing that Ning Xueluo had always been at
loggerheads with her, Ning Xi had not thought that she could
speak such vicious words.
"Going too far? You're the one who went too far! After getting
drunk and doing it with some wild man and getting pregnant,
then trying to make Su Yan become the father, tsk tsk... Ning
Xi, aren't you so shameless!"
Ning Xi froze, "What nonsense are you saying?"
"Hey, don't tell me you really believe that the man who slept
with you that night, was Su Yan?" Ning Xueluo laughed before
leaning back: "Saying that you grew up with Su Yan since you
were kids with every other sentence, saying that you're
childhood sweethearts, and you don't even know what his
figure is like?"
Ning Xi grew paler as she listened, despite standing under
intense sunlight, her wihole body felt cold.
Yes, the man from that night....
She had only thought.. Su Yan was fitter than she had
imagined after growing up.
Now with Ning Xueluo's malicious reminder, she then suddenly
recalled that, other than the body, the man from that night was
indeed very different from Su Yan....

-gege ( - An affectionate term from a girl, to an older guyshe has a romantic interest in. She is very obviously trying toget close to a guy if she uses this in front of him. It could also
be shortened to just-ge. The literal meaning is 'older brother.Think 'oppa' in Korean. The subtlety was hard to translate so l'l
