Shen Manting shook her head when she heard that. "Not at all. I've been having afternoon tea for the past few days. That's why I didn't have an appetite at dinner. I also cooked supper late at night. Of course, I have put on weight. Oh right! Have you book your flight yet? What time is the flight at?"

"My father booked the 3 p.m. flight tomorrow," Yu Lili replied. "By the time we reach Kingstown, it'll probably be after 6 p.m.. We'll go for dinner directly after that."

"Shouldn't you hide yourself and not go to Ou Ming? Otherwise, wouldn't this whole period have been in vain?" Shen Manting chuckled. "More than half a month has already passed. You haven't seen each other in so long. Will you be able to restrain yourself when you get to Kingstown?"

Yu Lili considered the question. Just the thought of it alone felt difficult. She gave a sigh and laid down on the beg hugging her blanket. Her heart was in knots. "I can't! This is so hard… It's so difficult!"

Shen Manting chuckled. There was envy in her eyes as she gazed at Yu Lili. "Have a good night's sleep then. Sleep well. I'm going to book my flight ticket. Send me the flight details."

"OK. Good night," Yu Lili said.

There was a smile on Shen Manting's lips as she left the room. In the darkness of the empty corridor, her eyes darkened. She reached out and stroked the subtle bump on her tummy. A long time passed before she walked back to her room.

Ye Youyou was wearing a pair of shades and a hat. As she dragged her luggage behind her, she could feel a sense of unease in her heart.

The footsteps of the man behind her were so light that she couldn't hear them. Ye Youyou paused for a moment and turned to look. Li Jinnan was still there walking behind her. His distance from her wasn't far, but it wasn't exactly close either. It was as if he was deliberately keeping his distance.

Ye Youyou released a sigh. It was fortunate that the guy at least had a sense of shame. The consequences would be disastrous if they were caught on camera together at the airport.

Upon exiting Kingstown airport, Ye Youyou intended to sneak off to flag a taxi on her own. But, she was dragged back by a hand on her collar. "The car is over here."

Li Jinnan's voice was low. He wasn't going to take no for an answer. "Where would you like to go?" he asked.

Ye Youyou didn't react with awkwardness at being caught that way. With a straight face, she replied, "GM Li, I can make my own way back."

"I'll give you a lift," he said. "Get in the car."

Li Jinnan's chauffeur quickly rushed over to open the back passenger door. Ye Youyou looked at the car and felt uneasy. She cleared her throat and called out, "GM Li…"

"Get in," Li Jinnan simply said.

His tone was clear, and his eyes were dark. Whatever Ye Youyou wanted to say died in her throat. She obediently got into the car, and Li Jinnan got in behind her.

Only when the car was on the expressway did she remove her shades and hat. She exhaled a long breath and said, "Kingstown is really hot."

Li Jinnan gave her a side glace and leaned his head on the head rest as he remarked, "Then strip."

Ye Youyou was speechless. She should have kept her mouth shut.

Soon, they were at Ye Youyou's apartment complex. She hurled her luggage out of the car. With an attitude of liberation, she waved at Li Jinnan and called out, "Bye, GM Li!"

With that, she turned and ran in. Li Jinnan watched Ye Youyou's back as he sat in the car. Helplessly, he rubbed his nose and asked his chauffeur, "Am I that terrifying?"

The chauffeur laughed. "Women get nervous when they see a handsome man."

Is that the case?

Li Jinnan was filled with doubt He turned to look in the direction that Ye Youyou had left. He realized that she didn't enter the apartment complex. Instead, she walked into a pharmacy.

Why was she going to a pharmacy?

Li Jinnan thought about it for a moment. The answer suddenly came to him.

"GM Li, I think Miss Ye has gone to buy some medication," the chauffeur said "Would you like me to check on her?"

"It's fine. Let's go," Li Jinnan said.

Taking it was for the best. Given out current circumstances, we couldn't have a baby.
