Chapter 24: Surrogate Motherhood
Hearing Gongsun Yuqing's question, Leng Xi Geng looked back at her face, and the tangled brows and thoughtful eyes seemed to want to find something from the other party's face.
After a while, his inquiring eyes moved away from Gongsun Yuqing's face, stretched out his hand, took out a lighter and a cigarette, lit one, put the lighter in his pocket, raised his hand, took a deep breath of the cigarette in his hand, put it down, and then opened his mouth slightly, letting the smoke slowly overflow from his mouth.
"Is this answer important to you?" Looking up at the rising smoke, he spoke slowly.
Hearing his question, Gongsun Yuqing nodded reflexively.
"Yes, and, I- I hope you can tell the truth." Then, she suddenly realized that the other party couldn't see her nodding at all, so she spoke again, and the pause in the middle completely revealed her inner hesitation.
"Really? In that case, I'll tell you. ”
"Don't say it." Suddenly, Gongsun Yuqing wanted to shout like this, but clenching her hands and biting her lower lip, she desperately tried to stop herself.
"I asked you to marry because I wanted you to help me have a child."
"I asked you to marry because I wanted you to help me have a child, I asked you to marry because I wanted you to help me have a child, and I asked you to marry because I wanted you to help me have a child."
Hearing Leng Xigeng's words, Gongsun Yuqing's body trembled violently, she froze in place, and what the other party said kept echoing in her mind.
"Are you alright?" Bowing his head, looking at Gongsun Yuqing's reaction, Leng Xi Geng asked.
Hearing Leng Xigeng's question, Gongsun Yuqing recovered from her stunned and looked up, she found that at this time, she couldn't see the face of the person in front of her clearly.
"I'm sorry, I'd like to think about this before giving you an answer, is that okay?" opened her mouth, although she asked, but she didn't wait for the other party to speak, then turned around and walked away slowly.
With heavy steps and clenched her hands into fists, Gongsun Yuqing walked forward step by step, she knew that she couldn't turn back now, because the two gazes fixed on her back told her.
"I'm sorry, I'd like to think about this before giving you an answer, is that okay?"
Yes, this is her answer to Leng Xigeng, don't ask her why she didn't directly agree or refuse directly, because she didn't even know the reason.
If you really want to name a reason, maybe it's just because you don't want to lose the straw that might save your father.
Now what she lacks is money, and what Leng Xi Geng can give her is exactly like this, if she refuses directly, then the only hope will be dashed, but the other party's sentence "I asked you to marry because I wanted you to help me have a child." The words made her unable to say the word "good", because that sentence clearly stated her status in Leng Xigeng's mind - a surrogate mother.
The four words of surrogate mother made her feel heartache, although she was mentally prepared before listening to his answer, but when she really heard it, for some reason, she still felt a pain of pins and needles in her heart.
Heartache like a pinprick in a pins and needles? Did she like him? How so? She and Leng Xigeng have only known each other for two days, and they have only met three times this time, how could she fall in love with a man who has only known each other for two days?!
The possibility of a sudden thought, the blow of losing a job, the cold words of Geng, the father's medical expenses...... Within a few days, Gongsun Yuqing's heart began to become overwhelmed, and the only thing she could think of now was to leave, to leave this place with a man named Leng Xigeng.
Looking at Gongsun Yuqing's figure disappearing around the corner, Leng Xi Geng finally recovered from the shock, he froze in place, and still had an unbelievable expression on his face
