Ye Moxuan quickly withdrew his hands; the smile on his face looked as if he was mocking her.
“So you’re not even going to deny it?”
Being so readily to admit that the bottle belonged to her and so eager to snatch it back showed how much that bottle meant to her.
He suddenly recalled what she had told him before: she had wanted him to take precaution but he didn’t want to. Even if she were to get pregnant, what was wrong with that? She didn’t want to bear a child for him, but he purposely wanted her to bear his child.
He didn’t realise that she was so against the idea of bearing his child even to the point of buying contraceptive pills.
Han Muzi wanted to snatch back the bottle, but Ye Moxuan was one step ahead of her. She could only bite her lips and watched in silence as he kept the bottle away.
Since she had been discovered, there was no use in denying it.
Even so, she had no intention of hiding this fact from him.
Thinking of this, Han Muzi said, “I don’t have any intention of hiding this from you. I have told you before that you should take precaution. If you don’t plan to use protection, aren’t you leaving me with no other choice but to take these morning-after pills?”
Hearing this, Ye Moxuan nearly laughed out of frustration.
His breath was caught in his throat and in the end, he could only manage a sneer
“I leave you no choice but to take contraceptives? Why? Must you take these pills?”
“If you don’t want me to take these contraceptives, then take proper precautions. Why are you yelling at me?” Han Muzi shot back at him.
The two of them continued to exchange heated words but Ye Moxuan realised something wasn’t quite right.
He wasn’t angry about her taking the contraceptive pills, rather… it was with her refusal to bear his child. If that was the case, then wasn’t it her ultimate goal to not have any ties with him?
“I’m yelling at you?” In his anger, Ye Moxuan clenched his fist and squeezed the pill bottle, causing the sturdy bottle to warp and bend under the pressure subjected to it.
Han Muzi was surprised by his sudden display of strength.
“If you didn’t resist me like this, would I yell at you? You would rather bear your ex-husband’s child but wouldn’t want to have anything to do with me? Why?”
He quickly leaned down and held her chin between his thumb and forefinger and said, “You don’t want to bear my child? Do you think it’s a shame to be pregnant with my child?”
Even though her chin was hurting, she dared not struggle much as she was afraid that her own jaw would suffer the same fate as the prescription bottle.
“Why must I bear your child? I have nothing to do with you!”
“What about your ex-husband then? What kind of relationship do you have with that man? I can’t believe a man who would raise a mistress behind your back would be cherished to such an extent!”
Han Muzi’s expression started to change under the verbal assault from him. Before she knew it, she blurted out, “Whoever said the child was Lin Jiang’s?”
Ye Moxuan’s stormy expression changed to one that was dumbfounded when he heard this.
Stunned with herself, Han Muzi realised that she had exposed a very important secret.
Her face started to pale and she looked toward Ye Moxuan’s handsome countenance.
Just now… what had she said?
Did she just expose her secret?
In a flash, Han Muzi quickly dove back under the sheets of her bed and gathered the blankets around her, wanting to pretend that nothing ever happened.
Ye Moxuan clasped his hand around her petite shoulders and dragged her from the bed. Once she was upright, his hands firmly held onto her slender waist, fixing her in place in front of him.
“What did you just say? Say it again!”
Her thoughts were in disarray and she was afraid that if she said any more, she would give herself away. But what else could she say at this moment to save herself from this situation?
“Tell me the truth!” Ye Moxuan glared at her. “If the child is not Lin Jiang’s, then whose child was it?”
Han Muzi closed her eyes and gritted her teeth. Since it has already come to this, it couldn’t be helped.
“Ye Moxuan, do you really want to know the answer to this question? No matter whose child it is, it will never be yours, so why do you ask? Do you really want me to tell you whose child I bore?”
No matter whose child it is, it will never be yours….
This sentence got Ye Moxuan’s heart all riled up.
That was true. When she first stepped into his house, she was heavily pregnant. No matter whose child she bore, it would never be his.
Damn it!
In his anguish, Ye Moxuan started to squeeze her arms, nearly breaking her bones with his strength.
“Ouch! It hurts! Let go of me!”
Han Muzi pushed at him with all her might. “Do you want to break my arms? Let go! Let me go!”
“Damn woman! I cherished you so much! I don’t mind it even if you bore someone else’s child, but you are so shameless. Whose is it? Tell me, whose child is it?”
Hot kisses rained down like a storm, almost causing Han Muzi to suffocate. When she tried to push him away, he grabbed both her hands and held them high overhead before he pressed them against the bed behind her.
His movements were rough when he was taking off her clothes. His cold voice sounded as if it came from hell itself.
“You don’t want to have anything to do with me? I’ll make sure you are involved with me. You want to take morning-after pills and not bear my child? Then I’ll make you pregnant with my child. You want to take the pills? I won’t allow it.”
When he said these words, his black eyes flashed with determination. It was backed with a will to carry out his threats.
Before Han Muzi could refute him, he pressed himself down on her and sealed her lips with his own.
The sound of the tumbling bottle could be heard.
The warped bottle dropped and rolled around on the floor. Ye Moxuan gave it a kick and it went tumbling into a corner. At the same time, a mixture of clothing started to rain down from the bed.
…
This time, Han Muzi couldn’t get out of bed.
When she woke, both her legs were sore and numb. She felt pain all over her body and she couldn’t even lift her arms.
And the worst part was, her strength was completely spent and she was faint with hunger. She simply couldn’t move even if she wanted to.
At this moment, the door was pushed open and Ye Moxuan came in bearing a bowl of porridge and set it down in front of her. “Time to eat.”
He put the bowl aside on a side table before he fished Han Muzi from the pile of blankets and dressed her.
“Bastard, don’t touch me——”
Han Muzi wanted to scold him but she lacked the strength. When the scolding came out of her mouth, it was without bite.
Especially when she looked as if her life hung by a thread.
While Ye Moxuan was trying to dress her up, she kept resisting. After a while, he said in a cold voice, “It seems you still have strength left. Do you wish for me to continue? Hmm?”
When she heard this, her eyes flashed in annoyance.
“Despicable!”
“If you continue to obstruct me like this, that would be the least of your worries.”
Unable to say anything else, she closed her eyes in despair and let Ye Moxuan help with dressing her up.
When she closed her eyes, she felt as if she had been turned into a puppet. Anything she did depended entirely on the puppet master’s discretion, and she… couldn’t do anything.
Woe to me.
She just wanted to take contraceptives. Who knew it would have brought such disaster upon her?
If only she had kept the morning-after pills hidden. If he had never discovered them, she would be able to take them without problems and not have anything to do with him in the future.
“Forget about eating those morning-after pills. I will be by your side for the next few days, watching over you 24/7 until you are pregnant with my child.”
Upon hearing this, Han Muzi’s eyes snapped open and it was filled with fury.
”Despicable! How could you do this?”
Would he really force her to bear his child?
