Rekindled Hearts: The Tycoon’s Reluctant Love

Chapter 295: Chapter 294: He Must Take Responsibility Chapter 295: Chapter 294: He Must Take Responsibility Xia Yiwan suddenly felt a wave of panic.

She had never expected to get pregnant after that night!

She wasn’t even married yet, how could she possibly have a child first?

If her dad found out, he would really break her legs!

Seeing the frantic look on Xia Yiwan’s face, Yanxi, unusually serious for once, said, “Tomorrow, go to the hospital for a check-up.”

Xia Yiwan bit her lip, “Should we find a pharmacy now and buy a pregnancy test to check?”

“Go directly to the hospital for results tomorrow!”

Xia Yiwan was at her wit’s end but seeing that Yanxi insisted on her going to the hospital, she nodded in agreement.

The pharmacy’s contraception was unreliable, so the pregnancy test might be just as unreliable. It was still best to go to the hospital to check!

Xia Yiwan barely slept that night.

Her mind was in turmoil, her thoughts a jumbled mess.

The next morning, she drove to the hospital immediately.

Yanxi was already waiting at the entrance of the hospital. Upon seeing her, he led her to the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department on the third floor.

After asking her about the date of her last period, the doctor directed her to get an ultrasound.

The ultrasound only took a few minutes.

After the procedure, Xia Yiwan waited outside. It wasn’t long before the doctor called her in.

The doctor handed her a piece of paper.

Upon seeing that she was indeed pregnant, Xia Yiwan’s mind went blank.

How could this happen?

Yanxi walked over and upon seeing the ultrasound report in Xia Yiwan’s hands, his handsome face immediately tensed up.

“Really pregnant?”

Xia Yiwan’s hand, holding the ultrasound report, trembled slightly.

“What should I do? I don’t want to be pregnant, and I don’t want to have a child so early!”

Yanxi frowned slightly, “I feel the same.”

“So I should abort it?”

Yanxi was about to say something when suddenly a well-dressed woman in high heels approached, “Yanxi!”

Yanxi turned his head and saw the woman standing not far away, surprised, “Mom?”

The well-dressed woman walked over to Yanxi and Xia Yiwan.

She glanced at the ultrasound report in Xia Yiwan’s hand. Xia Yiwan wanted to hide it, but it was too late.

Mother Yan looked at Xia Yiwan and then at Yanxi.

Then, she tightly pinched Yanxi’s ear, “You got the girl pregnant yet you don’t want to take responsibility?”

Mother Yan didn’t spare Yanxi any face, and her voice suddenly grew louder.

Others started looking their way.

Murmuring among themselves, pointing fingers.

Yanxi was usually thick-skinned, but at that moment, even he felt unbearably embarrassed.

“Mom, what are you doing, I’m already so old, why are you pulling my ear?”

Mother Yan let go of Yanxi’s ear and pulled him to one side, “You got someone pregnant, you have to take responsibility!”

“Mom, you think we live in ancient times? She doesn’t want it herself, what responsibility should I take?”

No sooner had he finished speaking than the back of his head was slapped by Mother Yan.

“Your grandmother’s illness leaves her with only one year to live, do you not know what her greatest wish is? She most wants to see you marry and have children. Now that you’ve got the girl pregnant, it’s the perfect time to marry and have children, to fulfill your grandmother’s heart’s desire!”

Yanxi was speechless.

How was marrying and having children, as said by his mother, as simple as going to the market to buy vegetables?

Yanxi was about to refuse when Mother Yan added, “Do you want to let your grandmother die with her eyes unclose?”

Mr. Yan and Mother Yan used to be busy with work, so Yanxi was raised by Old Lady Yan.

He had a deep affection for Old Lady Yan, who was diagnosed with a terminal illness, and the doctors said she had at most one year left to live.

She had repeatedly murmured in his ear several times, wanting to see him get married and have children while she was still alive.

But Yanxi had never thought—
“Mom, you know I can’t possibly get married, so stop pressuring me!”

Mother Yan was somewhat annoyed, “Because of that woman? How many years has it been since she left? Have you gone mad, intending to remain chaste for her for the rest of your life? Let me tell you, you’ve gotten that girl pregnant, now you must take responsibility!”

“You’ll have to marry her, whether you want to or not, otherwise, you’ll never be allowed to step foot in the Yan Family house again, and your grandma won’t acknowledge you anymore!”

“Because you caused her the loss of the great-grandchild she wanted most!”

Yanxi, “…”

Xia Yiwan had no idea what Mother Yan had said to Yanxi, but seeing Mother Yan’s ugly and fierce face, Xia Yiwan shrank her shoulders, feeling nervous and uneasy.

She also didn’t know what Mother Yan would think of her?

She must think she’s indecent, having relations with her son before marriage, right?

If she had known she would get pregnant, she wouldn’t have made such an impulsive decision that night, even if it killed her!

The situation seemed to spiral out of control!

Soon after, Mother Yan approached.

Looking at Xia Yiwan, who was nervously biting her lips, Mother Yan’s dignified and graceful face broke into a smile, “Little girl, don’t be afraid. The child in your stomach, our family’s deathly boy will take responsibility!”

Xia Yiwan’s eyes widened.

She didn’t need Yanxi to take responsibility!

Xia Yiwan hurriedly waved her hands, “Auntie, it was just an accident, you can’t blame Young Master Yan entirely…”

Mother Yan cut off Xia Yiwan’s unfinished words, “In the Yan family, we have rules. If you’re pregnant with a child, you must take responsibility!”

Xia Yiwan’s eyelashes trembled lightly, “What does auntie mean?”

“Get married right away!”

Xia Yiwan was so frightened, she practically jumped three feet in the air.

Marry Young Master Yan?

They had only met three times and were practically strangers, how could they possibly get married?

“Auntie, this… this is impossible…”

She had never thought of getting married!

“It’s okay, there’s still time, you can think it over.”

After leaving the hospital, Xia Yiwan and Yanxi each received a phone call.

Xia Yiwan received a call from Father Xia, whose roaring voice was thunderous.

“Xia Yiwan, you actually got pregnant before marriage, I just got a call from Young Master Yan’s mother. She said you’re pregnant and Young Master Yan will take responsibility for you, and you actually didn’t agree?”

Xia Yiwan’s scalp tingled, “Dad, do you think I should agree? I’m not even familiar with him!”

“If you’re not familiar, then why did you sleep with him? Has all the self-respect and self-love I’ve taught you since childhood been eaten by a dog?”

Xia Yiwan prodded her ear, “Dad, I… I was impulsive and made a mistake, but I shouldn’t have to pay for it with my marriage, right?”

Father Xia snorted coldly, “If you’ve made a mistake, you must learn to pay for it. The child in your belly is innocent. Besides, I think Young Master Yan is not bad. If it weren’t for you carrying his child, our family would never be able to climb up to the Yan family in this lifetime!”

Xia Yiwan, “…” Who exactly is her father?

On Yanxi’s end.

He received a call from Old Lady Yan, who was groaning in pain, “What sin did this old woman commit? Finally having a great-grandchild only to have it aborted, I might as well not wait a year to die, just go jump off a building and die now!”

Yanxi, “…”

“You don’t need to attend my funeral, just let your grandma pass away with unfulfilled wishes, to forever restlessly wander the Underworld!”

Yanxi’s expression darkened sharply, “Grandma, don’t curse yourself!”

“Then marry that girl and take responsibility for the child in her belly!”
