C22 You Actually Let Her Go out Alone

"Yeah." Lu Yao stuffed the food into her mouth and replied frankly, "That's why I want to eat sour food."

"…"

After making sure that Lu Yao wasn't joking with him, Xiang Dongnan facepalmed, "You only said that you wanted me to do a play with you, but you didn't say that you were pregnant. Do you know about it, Shao Yunchen?"

"I know, I just saw him at the swimming pool! But I didn't tell him how old the baby was. " At this point, she paused and looked at him with a slightly embarrassed and apologetic expression. "Sorry, I was afraid that he would suspect so I said it was yours."

After all, she didn't get his permission, and since they were only ordinary friends, she felt a little embarrassed.

She didn't expect Xiang Dongnan to suddenly turn silent. After a while, he looked at her seriously, "Yaoyao, if you don't mind, why don't we try it?"

Lu Yao was so frightened that her face almost fell into the soup plate.

"Senior Brother, don't misunderstand, that's not what I meant." Lu Yao coughed and hurriedly wiped her mouth with a tissue. She said awkwardly, "I just wanted to keep this child. It was an emergency so I couldn't say it was yours. Don't think too much."

Xiang Dongnan's face didn't look like he was joking at all, his eyes were calm and honest, "I'm serious, you have to bear a lot of burden in raising your child, I can be responsible for all of this, moreover I respect your opinion and won't force you. "Answer me when you've decided."

Tiantian seemed to have understood Xiang Dongnan's words. She rubbed her head against Lu Yao with anticipation. She couldn't wait for Lu Yao to agree to her father's suggestion.

Lu Yao pursed her lips but didn't say anything.

Honestly speaking, after getting divorced from Shao Yunchen, she didn't even plan to find anyone to get married again. It was too tiring to manage a marriage, but Xiang Dongnan was right. The burden of raising a child was huge. Moreover, there were two old men on top of her. She wasn't sure how much she could handle in the future.

Touching her belly through her clothes, she could even feel her baby's heartbeat, beating with her heart.

After a long while, as if she had made up her mind, she nodded in frustration.

"I'll think about it."

Xiang Dongnan smiled warmly. He looked at Tiantian and seemed to be relieved.

Lu Yao didn't see Shao Yunchen on the cruise ship again for the next two days, or maybe the cruise ship was too big. She often took Tiantian to the various floors in the afternoon, so it wasn't strange that she didn't see him.

By the time the cruise ship arrived in Osaka on the morning of the third day, the sightseeing tour was over.

Lu Yao and Xiang Dongnan got off the cruise ship together. They saw Shao Yunchen in the shadow in front of them. They got off the ship with a few people. Soon, they were gone.

The hotel sent a car to pick up Xiang Dongnan and Lu Yao. She sat in the car and watched the scenery whizz past outside the window. The houses weren't very tall, but the streets were clean and tidy, giving people a very comfortable feeling.

She had been at sea for a few days, and it seemed like she hadn't really visited this place yet.

When they reached downtown, she called for the car to stop.

"Senior Brother, you and Tiantian return to the hotel first. I want to take a walk around." Lu Yao took out her camera from her travel bag and said with a smile, "I finally made it here. It's such a pity not to take some photos."

"No, you're pregnant. You want to go out and play? I'll go with you." Xiang Dongnan said worriedly. He insisted on accompanying Lu Yao.

Lu Yao rejected him with a helpless smile. "It's only been two months. It's not like I can't walk. I'll take care of my own safety. Besides, there's a phone call, so I'll call you as soon as I can."

"Alright, be careful then. Call me if you need anything." Seeing that she was adamant, the man could only give up.

"Alright, farewell."

After waving the cab off, Lu Yao walked slowly along the street, admiring the scenery. When she saw good signs or buildings, she would stop and take a few pictures.

Lu Yao's mood gradually improved as the sun was not too high and the warm rays shone on her body.

Although she didn't understand Japanese, she would always meet some tourists who knew English when she went to a lively neighborhood. After asking which restaurant had the best delicacies, she excitedly went to the restaurant with her camera.

When she finished eating and came out of the last noodle store, she noticed that it was already dark and the streets were brightly lit. There were even a few stalls on the streets in the distance, and it was bustling with noise and excitement.

"I've been playing for so long." Lu Yao raised her hand to check her watch, her delicate eyebrows slightly raised.

Afraid that her senior brother would be worried, she quickly took out her phone from her bag, intending to give him a call.

She pulled out the phone and saw that it had been turned off. She took out her bag and found that there was only five thousand yen left.

Lu Yao stood on the side of the road at a loss of what to do.

Sighing, she looked around and saw a convenience store nearby.

Xiang Dongnan waited until around 7 PM. Seeing that Lu Yao still hadn't come back yet, he called her. However, he couldn't get through and was worried.

After settling Tiantian in her room, he picked up his coat and left the room.

As he passed by the lobby on the first floor, he spoke in English, "Room 2207, there is a five-year-old child. I have urgent matters to attend to, so I'm a bit worried. Please keep an eye on him for me."

"Yes, sir."

Finally, Xiang Dongnan remembered something, took out his phone and opened the photo album, "I have a friend named Lu Yao, here is her photo. If she comes back later, please ask her to call me."

"…"

At this moment, the hotel door opened and a slender figure walked in with a group of people. They were going to take the elevator when they vaguely heard the conversation between Xiang Dongnan and the front desk. He frowned and walked over.

"What happened to her?"

Xiang Dongnan was shocked. He turned around and saw it was him. He frowned but didn't hide it and said, "She said she went out to take a look, but she still hasn't returned. Her phone can't be reached."

Although Shao Yunchen was Lu Yao's ex-husband, since he had asked, it would be faster to find him with one more person.

The man's expression immediately darkened. With a heavy tone, he said, "This is Japan, and she doesn't speak Japanese. She's still pregnant. Can you just let her go alone?"

Previously, although he didn't go back to his apartment, when he occasionally drove with Lu Yao to buy groceries, he found her very confused. She couldn't even distinguish between north, south, east and west when she crossed the road, let alone in a place like a foreign country.

The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. A hint of anger even rose within him.

He passed the luggage to the person behind him and whispered a few words to him. The person nodded and quickly brought the others into the elevator.

Shao Yunchen took out his phone, looked at Xiang Dongnan, and said in a cold voice, "Where did she get off from? Tell me the address."
