Qin Yun also started chatting with Li Ning, learning that his team would soon return to the country, and all his work focus would then be placed domestically.

Qin Yun laughed, "When you come back in the future, if there are many things you’re not used to or don’t understand, you can always ask Sister Yueqian. Saying she’s a pillar in the entertainment industry wouldn’t be an exaggeration. She’s the face of the film industry, the strength. It’s definitely right to learn from Sister Yueqian."

An Yueqian lifted her beautiful eyes, casting an irritated glance at Qin Yun, "Stop your nonsense. Pei Yan is sitting right next to us. Aren’t you afraid of getting embarrassed talking to Li Ning like this? What blinds you, friendship or familial ties?"

Qin Yun was praising her to the heavens, though not entirely exaggerated, as her influence in the film industry was indeed extraordinary.

Li Ning had finally snapped back from the explosive news.

Accepting the fact that the goddess had a son.

He nodded vigorously, "I definitely will."

Li Ning still didn’t dare to look An Yueqian in the eye. During the subsequent chit-chat, he tried hard to control himself, refraining from sneaking glances at An Yueqian, his humble and low-value demeanor making Qin Yun sigh deeply.

This kid is so silly, a bit daft.

Though An Yueqian brought An Chengjin along, it was clear that An Yueqian was quite fond of Li Ning. At least, Qin Yun had never seen An Yueqian so relaxed around other men.

So, after having dinner, she found an excuse to take Li Ning out for a bit.

Li Ning was feeling quite down.

Qin Yun thought for a moment, then directly said, "Li Ning, you like Sister Yueqian, don’t you?"

Li Ning didn’t refute but rather nodded despondently, "Yes, I like her, very much."

After he spoke, he gave Qin Yun a smile, but that smile was somewhat bleak, making Qin Yun feel a bit heartbroken.

"You might not know, but I didn’t debut in Country F. I participated in a talent show and was a trainee in my home country back then, but the environment was chaotic. You know, there are all kinds of people in the entertainment industry, and they like to pick on those easily bullied trainees. I was targeted by a pervert and nearly bullied, but Sister Yueqian saved me. She might not remember it at all, but all these years, I’ve been keeping an eye on her. She’s the one who gave me the courage to come this far."

"I really like her. She’s the light in my world. Saying it may sound a bit adolescent, but if she hadn’t saved me back then, I might have ended up in ruin."

"But I didn’t expect Sister Yueqian to be married."

Li Ning sighed deeply at this point, looking dejected.

He seemed extremely defeated, as if he’d lost his faith.

Qin Yun couldn’t bear to see him like this and decided to lend him a hand. After pausing for a few seconds, she said, "I have some good news and some bad news. Which one do you want to hear?"

"Good news."

Li Ning chose casually and wasn’t really expecting much from this so-called good news.

"Sister Yueqian is divorced. She was unlucky in marriage. Her spouse turned out to be a jerk, and not long ago, she won the custody battle and took Chengjin back to live with her."

"What?"

Li Ning suddenly became excited, gripping Qin Yun’s hand and shaking vigorously, "Sister Yun, you mean Sister Yueqian is divorced?"

Qin Yun almost lost her balance from his forceful shaking and supported herself on the nearby wall to barely stand up, somewhat speechlessly saying, "Yes, that’s right, Sister Yueqian is divorced."

"That’s great!!"

Li Ning clapped his hands excitedly, then seemed to realize it wasn’t appropriate and scratched his head, "Sorry, I didn’t mean it that way."

But he couldn’t quite hide his excited emotions and, with a face filled with anticipation, asked Qin Yun, "Do I still have a chance?"

The look was like a wanderer in the desert finding the most precious water source.

Qin Yun nodded, "There’s still a chance. But your road ahead is long. Whether you can succeed depends on your own fortune."

"What do you mean?"

"Sister Yueqian considers you completely as a kid, not yet at the level of a grown man. She feels relaxed around you and even brought An Chengjin to see you. You should think about your current situation. Moreover, do you really not mind Sister Yueqian having a child?"

Li Ning understood immediately. In An Yueqian’s eyes, he wasn’t even in the range for considering as a potential partner, maybe just a somewhat pleasant-looking kid.

Li Ning laughed, "Is this the bad news you’re talking about?"

Qin Yun nodded.

He seriously thought for a while before replying, "No, because that’s her child. If she’s willing to accept me, I will treat that child as my own."

Li Ning’s answer surprised Qin Yun somewhat.

She didn’t expect Li Ning to not mind An Yueqian having a son; earlier, his sadness was due to believing An Yueqian had a husband and was already married.

Now realizing An Yueqian was divorced, he immediately regained vigor.

Qin Yun looked at him with satisfaction. She hadn’t misjudged; Li Ning is a very resilient and responsible person.

Li Ning didn’t know Qin Yun’s thoughts and sincerely thanked her, "Sister Yun, this isn’t bad news at all. Thank you so much for telling me this. If I can be with Sister An, you would be my benefactor."

Qin Yun waved her hand, not caring about these.

They returned to the private room the same way they left.

As soon as they pushed open the door, they heard the heart-wrenching sounds of someone vomiting from the bathroom, with An Yueqian and An Chengjin standing worriedly at the bathroom door.

Li Ning was startled by the scene, "What’s wrong with Mr. Pei? Is he feeling unwell? I’ll contact a doctor immediately!"

He took out his phone to dial emergency services but was stopped by Qin Yun, "No need to call a doctor; he’s just feeling a little unwell."

Qin Yun looked at An Yueqian, "Did he eat anything just now?"

An Yueqian looked puzzled, "Chengjin saw him not eating anything, and wanted to feed him some shrimp, but then he ran to the bathroom and started vomiting crazily."

What’s going on?

Qin Yun’s forehead twitched, "I knew something would go wrong."

Originally, she didn’t plan to have Pei Yan come over, precisely for this reason. He can’t eat anything, yet facing a table full of dishes is nothing but torture.

But he insisted, leaving Qin Yun no choice but to compromise.

Now this happened, he vomited so hard that An Chengjin thought he did something wrong and looked regretful.

An Chengjin saw Qin Yun come in and immediately asked worriedly, "Godmother, is Godfather okay?"

The little guy’s eyes were red with concern. Qin Yun quickly said, "He’s fine; it’s not your fault. Godfather has been feeling a bit unwell these past few days, which is why he’s vomiting."

"Then I’ll go get a cup of water for Godfather to rinse his mouth."

An Chengjin, upon hearing this, immediately ran off with his short legs to get water.

After a while, the commotion in the bathroom finally calmed down. Pei Yan opened the door and walked out, his whole face pale.

Qin Yun immediately went up to support him.

Pei Yan waved his hand, speaking weakly, "I’m fine."

Li Ning immediately took over, helping him over to the dining table. An Chengjin’s water was also brought over, "Godfather, rinse your mouth."

An Yueqian pulled Qin Yun aside, frowned, and asked, "What’s wrong with him? This doesn’t look like just a bit of discomfort."

She’d never seen a man vomit like that, as if trying to expel all his organs.

Qin Yun paused, then honestly revealed, "To be frank, it’s just ’morning sickness.’ I’m pregnant, and instead of me having it, he does. Vomits astronomical amounts, can’t eat anything, while everything I eat is delicious."

An Yueqian was shocked, "Can it even be like that?"
