Chapter 1407: She Didn’t Know Why She Was Pregnant
He Xiyan was extremely worried and her brows were creased into a deep frown.
“Why wouldn’t you know?” she said as she took her daughter’s hand in hers.
This was no laughing matter since she was pregnant before she was even married. If news of this were to be made public, her daughter’s reputation would be ruined.
“Is the baby Jiang Cheng’s?” she asked.
Xi Xi took a deep breath, stuck her hands in her pockets, and stared at the floor.
She nodded but her brows were locked in a deep frown and her confusion and distress were clearly reflected in her eyes.
“Mom…” she said as she turned to look at her mother. She hesitated for a while before she said, “I don’t know how I managed to get pregnant either. Although we’re living together, we’ve always used protection. How did I manage to get pregnant?”
He Xiyan sighed. She had been caught off-guard and felt unprepared to deal with this sudden turn of events.
What’s done was done and she couldn’t admonish her daughter because she could tell that her daughter was very distressed and looked upset.
“Let’s head back first,” she said as she led her daughter out of the hospital.
She even asked her daughter to put on a mask since she was worried about her daughter’s health and was also equally worried that the media outlets might find out and splash her daughter’s condition all over the news.
She had to go home and think about how they were to handle this.
“Mom, what do you think might have happened?” Xi Xi still couldn’t figure out how she managed to get pregnant when she had always asked Jiang Cheng to wear protection each time.

She couldn’t help but verbalize her confusion after they got into the car.
He Xiyan said, “It might have fallen off mid-way. You had been too careless.”
She suddenly had an urge to call Jiang Cheng over and give him a good talking-to.
She had previously thought that he was a mature and sensible man, so she couldn’t believe that he had managed to get her daughter pregnant in a matter of months.
Xi Xi looked out of the window and her fingers twisted the material of her skirt.
“I want to have this child, mom!” she said softly.
She didn’t respond earlier when the doctor had asked if she’d like to keep the child but she had known there and then that she wanted this child, her baby.
He Xiyan tamped down her frustration and tried her best not to berate her daughter.
She had to discuss this matter with her husband and figure out how to resolve it.
“Is Jiang Cheng aware?” she asked.
Xi Xi shook her head and said, “I haven’t told him. He said that he would be in Shen City over the next two days to close a deal.”
“Tell him to rush back tonight,” He Xiyan said.
How could that punk be so untrustworthy?
She gave her daughter some advice after they returned to the castle.
She told her what to look out for during her pregnancy, and told her to avoid drinking cold water, eat spicy food, intense exercises, wearing high-heels, and so on…
A woman was at her most vulnerable physically and psychologically when she was pregnant, so she didn’t want to berate her daughter while she was pregnant.
If her daughter was pregnant, then she would have to have the child no matter what.
Xi Xi locked herself up in her room and her usual exuberance was nowhere to be found. Instead, she seemed like she had withdrawn into herself. She looked at the medicine that the doctor had prescribed her today, took a cup of warm water and swallowed two pills.

He Xiyan called her husband Ye Hao but she didn’t give him too many details. Instead, she only asked him to be back earlier than usual.
She paced around the room and wondered what she should do.
She thought it was odd that her daughter didn’t know how she managed to get herself knocked up and even wondered if Jiang Cheng had deliberately knocked Xi Xi up.

"I know you're a virgin but have you never been touched?" He asked, sliding his other hand down onto her leg. "What makes you say that?" Kat breathed, bracing her hands on the counter. "You react like someone who's never felt another's touch," Nex whispered, slipping his thumb under the band of her shorts. "So, have you not?" Kat opened her mouth to speak but stopped when his hand slid up from her leg, gliding up her stomach and stopping just below her breast. "Not even here?" He asked, following the curve of her breast with one finger, not touching, staying just below as he dragged it back and forth. "What about here?" He asked, sliding his hand down from her ribs to the bottom of her shorts then around to her butt, fingers nearly grazing it as he inched them up, under her pajamas. "I can say with certainty, never here," he said, lowering his other hand under the waistband of her shorts, touching the top of her underwear. "No, you've definitely never felt that before. I can hear your heart racing, I can feel your breathing, I can smell your body responding like it's never experienced these sensations before," he whispered, sliding a finger just underneath the band.
