"What a lousy man!"
Bai Xiaolian was livid, "Li Mingxun really knows no limits, not only having an affair during our marriage, but he even got his mistress pregnant. What else does he plan to do?"
"He forced me to divorce him."
Luo Qianxun spoke lightly, as if she were only a bystander.
"Di...Divorce?"
Bai Xiaolian's eyes widened, "Li Mingxun keeps pushing the boundaries of my understanding of him. Is he forcing you to divorce so that Jiang Xinjie, his mistress, could take your place?"
"I didn't sign."
Luo Qianxun's voice was mild, showing no hint of strong emotions.
"Good for not signing."
Bai Xiaolian agreed with Luo Qianxun's decision, "As long as you don't divorce him, that scumbag and his mistress will not be able to unite. It doesn't matter if this drags on."
"Xiaolian, as my belly grows bigger, I won't be able to hide it. I don't know what I can do."
Luo Qianxun looked at Bai Xiaolian, "This is my child and I will have it no matter what. But if Li Mingxun knows, he will never let me have these twins."
"Qianxun, why do you insist on having these children? In the future, with two burdens, how could you get married?"
Bai Xiaolian frowned at Luo Qianxun, "You might as well give up while it's still early."
"I love Li Mingxun, and I love the children inside me. Even if it means being a single mother, I will have them."
Luo Qianxun's stubborn expression made Bai Xiaolian sigh helplessly, "One day, when Li Mingxun realizes that he has hurt the woman who loves him the most beyond repair, I wonder how he would feel. Jiang Xinjie, that restless woman, can fool him for a while, but not forever."
"Xiaolian, please keep this secret for me, don't tell anyone."
Luo Qianxun reminded Bai Xiaolian.
Bai Xiaolian nodded, "Rest assured, I wouldn't tell anyone, not even if I had to keep it locked inside my heart forever. Since you've decided to have the child, I can only support you. If you need any help, just let me know, and I will do my utmost to assist you."
"Thank you."
Luo Qianxun's eyes turned red. She felt like a deserted island. Having Bai Xiaolian by her side made her feel less alone.
"Silly girl, why are you so formal with me?"
Bai Xiaolian looked at Luo Qianxun, thought for a moment, and then said, "Can you take care of yourself all alone? Why don't you simply move in with me?"
"No need, your working hours are all over the place, I wouldn't want to disturb your rest. Plus, now that I'm pregnant, my routine is all over the place, it's better for me to stay at home."
Luo Qianxun declined firmly. One important reason she didn't want to leave the villa was that Li Mingxun would still come back.
Now that he wanted to force her into a divorce, he would definitely come to find her.
Even if their encounters were confrontational, she was still willing to see him.
At least, he came back.
"Alright then, you have to take care of yourself. Call me if anything happens."
Bai Xiaolian poured another glass of juice for Luo Qianxun, "Do you have enough money? Most of my salary is saved up, and there isn't much chance to spend it at the bar. I can transfer some to you."
Bai Xiaolian's life was quite simple. She either stayed home sleeping or was at work in the bar, keeping a simple routine.
"No need. My grandfather has the butler give me pocket money every month. The money I made from my part-time design work is enough for me."
Luo Qianxun saved up all the pocket money for any unexpected needs.
It seems now is the time to use that money.
"Alright"
Bai Xiaolian knew Luo Qianxun didn't want to bother her, so she didn't say anything more.
