Pampered by My Ex's Cousin-Chapter 166 - 160 The Child is Mine (2)

She followed the doctor’s instructions, paid the money, drank more water, and prepared for the ultrasound examination.

This hospital was somewhat remote, very crowded early in the morning with local residents, all speaking in a thick Hai City dialect.

Outside the ultrasound room, most of those waiting were mothers or grandmothers accompanying pregnant women for check-ups, all acquainted with each other, creating a noisy atmosphere.

With a throbbing headache, Ji Anning walked into the stairwell, extremely exhausted, and sat down on the stairs, bending over.

In a small, clear disposable cup, the water was still a bit hot; she held it with both hands, staring blankly out the window around the corner.

A pile of obligations, a pile of troubles, a pile of emotions.

Yet even this tired, even not knowing why she lived, she still wanted to live.

Her hands could feel that the temperature of the water was almost drinkable, she shifted her vacant gaze, bringing the cup to her lips.

Forgetting the purpose of her drinking, she sipped slowly, absentmindedly.

Still in a trance.

Sitting there with knees bent, her thin nightgown made her look exceptionally frail and petite.

Ji Chicheng spotted her at a glance, his heart painfully twitched, but he also sighed in relief.

He had been searching all night, and if he had not found her, he would have gone mad.

He quietly closed the stairwell door, the slight noise not affecting Ji Anning’s train of thought.

Ji Chicheng’s steps approached her gradually, walking behind her, his hands in his pants pockets, he turned and leaned against the staircase railing.

Then, looking down at Ji Anning with a sideways glance, he said, "The child is mine."

With an unruffled tone, this scene, this "play," he had rehearsed over and over in his mind, from the moment he resolved to have her, he had anticipated such a day would come.

He had always looked forward to this day, with her having no way out but to enter his embrace, into his city.

Everything was unfolding just as he had envisioned and planned, and, as expected, she was so lost and helpless.

But, he hadn’t accounted for driving her to a dead end, her in the blaze, that strong desire to survive, so resilient.

So, seeing her like this, he wasn’t as happy or proud as he had anticipated, only heartbroken.

Yet by nature always subdued, capable of cold mockery, he could do it.

Dominantly taking what he wanted, he could do it.

Silently giving, he could do it.

It was just that he wasn’t good at expressing love and care.

Thus, this statement, "The child is mine," in his understanding, was his declaration of love.

The child was his; if he didn’t truly like or love her deeply, how could he engage in such intimate acts with her, how could he let her carry his child?

Ji Anning’s body stiffened, her expression frozen, showing no response for a long time. Was it a dream...an illusion?

The man’s voice sounded again behind her, "I am that demon who slept with you." 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

Demon... Ji Anning stared in disbelief, her petite body trembling with each shaky breath.

It was his voice, his low, pleasant voice, filled with charisma, but he was that damned demon... the father of her child in her womb was him!!!

A hand, trembling, reached to her lower abdomen.

How could it be possible? Why would he?

"Being with me, Ji Jingfeng can give you everything, and what he can’t give you, I can also give you."

Like love, like a heart, she had always been the only one in his heart from the beginning to the end.
