Fu Shilv had spoken, and suddenly the surroundings fell into complete silence.
The woman who was about to sit on Xiao Rui's lap also halted, not daring to make another move.
The two of them exchanged glances, evidently still fearful of him; this was the type of man whose word was law, and they were afraid of being the target of his next move should they disobey.
The two women scuttled away dejectedly.
Xiao Rui's face showed annoyance, and he turned his head to cast a resentful glance at Shilv.
"Xiao Rui, give me a straight answer. If you don't want to get married, then let's just call it quits."
When Tang Hui asked this, her eyes were unblinkingly fixed on him, as if she intended to unearth an answer from his face.
Xiao Rui's eyes were cool and detached. Hearing her words, he looked back at Tang Hui and asked her, "If you really wanted to call it quits, why would you say you're pregnant? Now my family knows about the child and they're pushing me to marry you."
