Chapter 1496: Feeling Guilty
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Wen Shan was startled and hurriedly closed the alb.u.m. She still felt uneasy so she opened it again slowly.
Mrs. Wen looked at her daughter who was sitting by the bed and looking at a photo alb.u.m. “You hurried home just to look at a photo alb.u.m?”
Wen Shan looked up at her mother and tried to calm herself as she changed the topic. “Isn’t my brother taking my sister-in-law for a maternity check? I heard that there are children who resemble their aunts, that’s why I came back to recall how I looked as a child. ”
Mrs. Wen’s mood immediately brightened when she thought of her pregnant daughter-in-law. She sat next to her daughter and said cheerfully, “It was the same when you were a kid too, but I hope the child will be like your sister-in-law.”
Wen Shan was speechless. ‘Mom, how can you say that to your own daughter?’
However, that was not the main issue. “Mom, will my brother come back today?”
“He won’t. Didn’t he just pick up Jingjing? I’m sure they’re heading back to their own house.” Mrs. Wen answered, then patted her daughter’s leg and got up to leave. “Are you staying for dinner?”
“No, no, I still have something to do at school. I am leaving now,” Wen Shan said, picked up her bag, and dashed out of the room.
“Hey, why are you rus.h.i.+ng around?” By the time Mrs. Wen reached the kitchen door, Wen Shan had already left.
Wen Shan went downstairs and waited for the bus. Considering that the child was about Ye Xicheng’s age, he should be only five or six years old. So the incident might have happened six or seven years ago.
It did not seem right. Her brother already knew his wife at that time. It was impossible for him to have an affair with another woman, wasn’t it?
Perhaps it really was just a coincidence?
However, that kid did look like her when she was his age!
“Coincidence coincidence.” Wen Shan was mumbling about it while getting on the bus. Fortunately, it was around four o’clock so there were not many people on the bus.
Wen Shan got on the bus, still a little confused. Suddenly, her phone rang. Wen Shan looked down and saw the caller ID. She groaned, wanting to throw her phone out of the window.
It was Nalan Chunbo.
Right now, she was feeling guilty, but she didn’t even know why.
The sudden appearance of that brat made her feel guilty, but she knew that she was still a virgin who hadn’t even had her first kiss. The main point though was that she didn’t know Ding Junqi at all. Could it be that the child was related to her brother?
Her sister-in-law just got pregnant. She would be furious if she found out.
Wen Shan did not dare answer the call.
The phone rang until it went to voicemail. Nalan Chunbo frowned at the phone in his hand, then dropped the phone in the pa.s.senger seat and drove away from the school.
Wen Shan looked at her phone that had stopped ringing, and was surprised by her sweaty palms. She didn’t even know what she was guilty of.
“Ah!” Wen Shan yelled in frustration, and the few people on the bus turned to look at her. An old lady nearby held her grandson tightly and looked at Wen Shan like she was a lunatic.
Wen Shan was speechless.
She had embarra.s.sed herself again.
[Where are you?]
Wen Shan looked at the text message from Nalan Chunbo. She was still feeling dazed and didn’t know how to reply.
The appearance of the little boy had confused her and she had no idea what to do about him, let alone how to face Nalan Chunbo.
[Wen Shan, reply my text]
Wen Shan gripped the phone but still refused to reply.
[You’re making me uneasy. Where are you now? I’ll fetch you.]
Wen Shan felt even more guilty this time. Should she call him back?
