I Ran Off Pregnant, and My Ex-Boyfriend Found Out

◎ Radiant, charming host × unruly young heir of Beijing's elite

◎ She runs away while pregnant + rekindled romance, he has to win her back

Su Xishui never imagined she would see Tan Shao again in this lifetime.

Their breakup had been ugly. She pointed at his nose and cursed him, saying he would die without a child. He said she was shameless, cheating on him, and deserved to spend the rest of her life in misery.

Sometimes life really is unfair. Years later, her life was still as ordinary as ever, while he had become a prominent figure in the capital and the biggest sponsor of her show. Her boss had sternly warned her to treat him well and not offend him.

"Mr. Tan, a toast to you." With bills to pay, Su Xishui could only put on a smile and bend her pride for a living.

Tan Shao kept a cold expression the whole time and barely looked at her.

But when she got home that night, a Rolls-Royce with a Beijing A8 license plate was parked outside her old apartment building.

Tan Shao leaned against the car with his hands in his pockets. Beneath the streetlight, his ivory-pale face looked down at her from on high. "Su Xishui, I'm giving you one more chance. Come back to me."

She opened her mouth, but before she could speak, a little bundle in pale pink and cream toddled over to her feet, tugged at her pants, and called, "Mommy."

Realizing this was the illegitimate child she had with that adulterer, Tan Shao's face darkened. He slammed the car door and left at once.

She thought that was the end of it, but two days later, he threw a contract down in front of her.

She couldn't understand why he still wanted to keep entangling himself with her when things between them had come to this.

"Until I get tired of you." He pinched her chin and smiled, but his eyes were as cold as his fingers.

Su Xishui felt a deep sorrow in her heart, helpless and despairing.

Later, she accidentally learned he was going to enter an arranged marriage. Sitting on the floor, she murmured, "Then why did you come back to bother me? Do you think I'm an easy target because I have no one to rely on?"

Tan Shao felt inexplicably flustered. "Stop crying! Your eyes look like peaches. It's awful!"

Tan Shao began to wonder who the child's father really was.

A big round face, eyes like black grapes, lips as bright as cherries in season... There was no way the child was his. The kid was pretty cute, but that dumb little look was nothing like him.

Then one day, the baby was injured and needed a blood transfusion. Su Xishui's best friend stubbornly blocked him, visibly agitated. "No! Anyone else can do it, but not you!"

The next day, the paternity test came back with a 99.9% match.

Tan Shao's hand trembled as he held the report. Thinking of everything he had done lately, he suddenly felt utterly terrified.

He had a feeling Su Xishui really wouldn't speak to him this time.

☆ Both leads are each other's first and only. Lots of melodrama, and the male lead is a jerk at first.
