Chapter 755: I Never Intended to Let Go
“No.”
Feng Shanshan tried her best to keep calm and took out breakfast. “I know you can’t eat, but eat more. How can you recover from such a serious injury if you don’t eat?”
Tang Yan was stunned for a moment. Then, he stopped the busy Feng Shanshan and said, “I’ve already communicated with the chief. I won’t partic.i.p.ate in this kind of case anymore.”
“Sit down.” Feng Shanshan still appeared very calm.
Tang Yan felt a little uneasy. After all, there weren’t too many emotional fluctuations. This wasn’t Feng Shanshan’s personality, so he took Feng Shanshan’s hand and said, “After this case, I can rest for a few more days. I’ll stay at home to accompany you.”
“You want to accompany me…” Feng Shanshan rolled her eyes. “You sit down first.”
Tang Yan finally sat down.
With his hand covering his wound.
Feng Shanshan caught a glimpse of it and snorted coldly. “I don’t know if you’re going to accompany me or if I’m going to accompany you.”
In order to punish this man, Feng Shanshan did not intend to tell him about the pregnancy. And because the doctor had instructed her to stay in bed as much as possible for the time being, she simply tidied up the house and went to bed.
She could still feel the heat from Tang Yan’s body under the blanket.
Feng Shanshan finally felt at ease and fell asleep peacefully.
Tang Yan saw that Feng Shanshan was asleep and knew that she was always on tenterhooks. He ate a few mouthfuls of breakfast and returned to bed. He lay beside Feng Shanshan and held her in his arms.
In her sleep, Feng Shanshan was not at ease. She kept kicking the blanket and sometimes she would even mumble.
Tang Yan’s heart ached. He had never felt so deeply about how lacking he was as a man.
Then, he hugged Feng Shanshan tightly and comforted her gently, “I’m here, I’m back.”
Tang Yan wanted to hug Feng Shanshan and sleep like this for the whole day, but a call came from the bureau. “Captain Tang, there’s been another suicide incident at Changrong Electronics. This is already the fourth one in the past two years. Also, there’s something strange. The girl who committed suicide this time has a lot of similarities to the suicide case that we previously investigated.”
This was a call from Old Cheng.
He had only been back for one night, and these people already knew his whereabouts?
Initially, Tang Yan didn’t want to bother with it, but he knew about Sheng Kai taking over Changrong Electronics. Therefore, after making lunch for Feng Shanshan, he left with his injury.
When he arrived at the branch office, Old Cheng hurriedly went up to greet him. However, seeing that Tang Yan didn’t look well, he felt a little guilty. “Captain Tang, are you injured?”
“A minor injury,” Tang Yan answered.
“I don’t want to disturb you, but this matter is a little complicated.”
“I’ll go to the autopsy room first.” Tang Yan turned the corner and went to the autopsy room.
Professor Tang raised his head and saw him. He stopped what he was doing and glared at him. “Why are you here? You just came back and you’re already back at work? What about Shanshan?”
“She’s resting at home. I’m just here to report to the chief,” Tang Yan explained. He didn’t understand why the professor was so agitated.
“She’s resting at home?” The professor felt that Tang Yan was taking the situation too lightly.
“Do you know how sad she has been these few days? If it wasn’t for Xiao Qi’s help, you would be waiting to see a corpse now. You’re still able to come here so casually.”
“I’ll go back after I finish my report,” Tang Yan promised.
“You go straight back right now. I’ll deal with the chief,” Professor Tang ordered him. “You’re going to be a father, yet you still don’t put your mind on your family at all. If I were Shanshan, I would leave you. What a b.a.s.t.a.r.d.”
Tang Yan listened for a while and caught the main point of the professor’s words. “Who’s going to be a father?”
“Didn’t Shanshan tell you?”
“What?”
“She’s pregnant!” Professor Tang glared at Tang Yan with a look of disappointment.
Upon hearing these words, Tang Yan was stunned and his body stiffened.
After a moment, he turned around and left, completely ignoring Old Cheng who was shouting behind him.
No wonder she wanted to move into his uncle’s house. No wonder she had to lie on the bed to rest in broad daylight. No wonder… when she saw him, her tone was very calm. No wonder…
Tang Yan drove straight home. When he entered the house, Feng Shanshan was still not awake.
Tang Yan’s gaze then fell on her smooth lower abdomen. It was in this place that she had a child that belonged to the both of them.
He did not want Feng Shanshan to suffer so early, but when he really heard the news, the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up. He was elated. His mind was filled with the image of Feng Shanshan with the child. It was his own flesh and blood. Tang Yan felt like he was going crazy!
Feng Shanshan slept until the afternoon. It was Mu Qiqi who woke her up with a call. Feng Shanshan reached out to answer the call. Mu Qiqi asked, “Is Captain Tang not back yet?”
“Oh… he’s back,” Feng Shanshan sat up and answered.
“How did he look when he found out that you were pregnant?”
“I haven’t told him yet.” Feng Shanshan ruffled her hair. “I felt sleepy when I came home, so I slept until now.”
“Alright, you should rest.”
Mu Qiqi hung up and Feng Shanshan put down her phone. Then, she saw Tang Yan appear at the door of the bedroom.
“Have you slept enough?”
Feng Shanshan nodded and touched her stomach. “I’m a little hungry.”
“I’ll bring you to eat and then we’ll go to the hospital for a check-up. I want to see for myself.” Tang Yan helped her up.
Feng Shanshan was stunned for a moment. She looked at Tang Yan. “Weren’t you afraid of dragging me down the depths of danger in the past? Now that I’m pregnant, isn’t the danger even greater?”
“We’re getting married right away. I don’t want you and the child to be criticized by others. Whether it’s dangerous or not, we’ll talk about it in the future. I’ll take care of it.”
“And you’re now willing to marry me because of the child?” Feng Shanshan frowned. She sat by the bed and refused to get up.
“No, I never intended to let go. It’s just that the child appeared earlier,” Tang Yan explained. What he truly meant was that, “From the moment you were with me, I’ve treated you as the only partner in my life. It has and will never change.”
“You never told me.”
“You used to think that you didn’t want to have any emotional connection with me. Even if I told you, you wouldn’t care.”
That was true. Feng Shanshan was finally satisfied. She grabbed Tang Yan’s hand and stood up. “Actually, you’re going on a business trip. Do you want to investigate the case or do you want to come with me? I just hope that you can do what you promised me. When you have a child, you must be by my side.”
“Whatever it is, I only want to be by your side.” Tang Yan meant it because that was what he was thinking about the whole time he was on the mission. “In the future, I don’t want to get hurt anymore.”
“Listen, there’s no rush to get checked and married. Come with me to visit Qiqi and thank her tonight. It’s her and uncle and auntie who were worried about you these few days.”
