Chapter 514: Why Have You Grown As Fat As A Pig

Lu Yi did not comment on it as he was not involved and did not know what had happened. Yi Ling had always been iron-willed, she would not have attempted suicide so easily. He wondered what Ding Ming had done to Yi Ling that could force someone with such a valiant personality to jump off the building.

Maybe this would be an unsolved mystery, a mystery that could not be unraveled even by Yan Huan. It was a secret that vanished with the death of Yi Ling in the past life.

Lu Yi parked his car in front of the Lei family’s house. Yan Huan had wanted to come over to visit Yi Ling, who was being taken care of by the Lei family. They had fed her so well that it seemed like she was being fattened up like a pig to be slaughtered.

Yan Huan walked in and was immediately startled when she saw Yi Ling, who was sitting on the sofa.

“Who is this fat pig?”

Yi Ling’s fragile heart shattered into a million pieces after she heard the words ‘fat pig’.

“Lei Qingyi, you bastard! Why did you feed me so much?” she cried with tears streaming freely down her face. Lei Qingyi rushed over once he heard Yi Ling crying.

“My dear, don’t cry. You may give birth to a crybaby if you continue crying like this.”

Despite that, Yi Ling continued to cry. Her family had hidden all the mirrors in the house, which was why she did not know how she looked. If not for the vaguely familiar features on that round face, Yan Huan would not have been able to recognize that this plump woman was Yi Ling who was almost triple Yan Huan’s size.

Yi Ling continued sobbing while Lei Qingyi’s forehead broke into a cold sweat.

“Look how beautiful she is,” Lu Yi suddenly spoke, with a mildly wistful tone. “Look at you, you’re as thin as a ghost. You should have a hearty meal when we get home.”

“Alright,” Yan Huan stuck out her tongue, knowing that she had said something that she should not have said.

Yi Ling stopped crying instantly. “Lu Yi, do you really think that I look nice?” Actually, Yi Ling had also thought that she was quite fat now, but her family had always reassured her by saying how nice and beautiful she looked this way. Pregnancy did cause her intellect to deteriorate somewhat, making her unable to differentiate between beauty and ugliness.

“Beauty is in the eye of the beholder,” Lu Yi calmly lowered his gaze. “You look beautiful like this. Qingyi can’t take his eyes off of you when he had never looked at other women this way before.”

“Yes, yes, that’s it,” Lei Qingyi kept nodding his head. “You were as thin as a lamp post before, so much so that I even thought you were a man. You look so much better now,” he stroked Yi Ling’s prominent belly. “As parents, we are willing to sacrifice anything as long as Little Lei is cute and healthy, right? Didn’t you always say that you’re willing to sacrifice your own flesh and blood as long as Little Lei won’t go hungry?”

That’s right, Yi Ling stroked her belly emotionally. Fine, I’ll get fat. I’ll be able to lose weight in the future anyway. Hopefully I won’t lose my breasts along with the fats though. She did not want to be mistaken as a man by others again.

Lu Yi squeezed Yan Huan’s fingers, a signal for her to behave herself.

Yan Huan received his message and she did not dare to say anything more.

However, Yi Ling’s situation was pretty scary. Yan Huan patted her own belly, thinking back to the time when she got pregnant in her past life. She could not eat or sleep and she became even thinner than usual. There was no one to help her with nutrition supplements and she had to draw blood every month. She ended up weighing only 70 kilograms. Her six-month baby bump looked like a normal three-month pregnancy bump.

She was willing to be as fat as Yi Ling for the sake of her baby too.

In addition to being forgetful, Yi Ling spent her days eating, drinking and sleeping. She was really living like a pig, falling asleep right after eating and then continuing to eat after waking up. She had now retreated to her comfortable bed to sleep.

The Lei family treated Yi Ling really well. Otherwise, Yi Ling would not be in this shape.

Lei Qingyi was exhausted. He was concerned about Yi Ling, especially when she progressed to the third trimester of her pregnancy. He became more restless and had to keep an eye on Yi Ling wherever she went. He was worried that his wife might accidentally fall down and hurt herself, causing a miscarriage or go into labor prematurely.

That’s why while Yi Ling had put on weight, he had lost quite a lot of weight instead.

When Lei Qingyi came out after tucking Yi Ling into bed, both Yan Huan and Lu Yi had their eyes glued to her phone. Yan Huan had placed her phone on Lu Yi’s knee. She had lost her game so many times that she was losing lots of points, so she took this chance to let Lu Yi make it up for her.

“Is everything settled at the office?”

Lei Qingyi asked Lu Yi.

“Hmm,” Lu Yi nodded. “The procedures are all complete. The office building is still under construction, but it will most likely be ready in two years. We don’t have a workplace currently but I’ve already found a place to rent temporarily. We will move out once the construction of the new building is completed.”

“Then we’ve come to an agreement,” Lei Qingyi sat down. He was serious, very serious.

Yan Huan sat there obediently without a word while listening to them. She looked at Lu Yi, who was still swiping at the screen of her phone. Oh, he was certainly good at multitasking.

“Hmm, I know. It shall be registered under Yi Ling’s name. She can start working after she recovers from giving birth.”

“Thanks then. My Yi Ling loves this field of work and as long as she loves it, I won’t let her give up on it,” Lei Qingyi reached out and patted Lu Yi on the shoulder.

However, there might have been too much force behind that pat, causing Lu Yi to loosen his grip on the phone which slipped out of his hands onto the floor. And then...

The screen cracked.

Lei Qingyi’s eyes widened. “Sorry!” he apologized hastily. “It’s an accident, it really is an accident.”

Lu Yi bent down to pick up the phone on the floor. The screen had cracked and the phone itself could no longer be turned on.

He popped open the back cover of the phone and retrieved the SIM card.

As for the broken phone, he threw it into the trash can.

“I’ll buy you a new one later,” Lu Yi said as he tidied Yan Huan’s hair.

“Okay,” Yan Huan nodded. Actually, she did not really feel sorry for the broken phone as she was already planning to get a new one. That phone was laggy when she was playing games. Besides, she had been using it for a year. It was time to get a new one.

“Let’s go,” Lu Yi stood up and held his hand out toward Yan Huan. Yan Huan clutched his big hand tightly and walked out with him as Lei Qingyi, the phone murderer, stood there awkwardly.

“About the compensation...”
