The Devil's Sleeping Beauty

"Momma, you should eat less." Little Melon said as he placed the plates on the table. He jump off the chair before he touched his mother’s belly. "Momma’s tummy is getting big."

She chuckled at this. "Your baby sisters are growing, baby."

Little Melon gasped in surprise, "You ate Mello’s sisters? Momma, that’s bad!"

Xia Meilin ended up laughing at this. She sat on the chair and held his small hand, allowing him to rub her bloated belly. "Don’t worry, they’re alive. One day, they’ll come out of mommy’s tummy."

"How?" He tilted his head in confusion.

"With a doctor’s help of course." She smiled. She stared at her tummy, this was actually the first time where she was able to see her tummy grow bigger. When she was pregnant of Little Melon, she was in a coma. It was like in a blink of an eyes for her, one moment her stomach was flat the next moment it was big. It was a huge surprise for her when she learned that she was actually pregnant back then.

Xia Meilin was happy that she can see and monitor how her tummy was started growing big. She couldn’t help but be excited when she thought of seeing her twin girls.

"I hope my baby sisters won’t hurt momma." Little Melon said while rubbing her tummy. "It looks like momma’s tummy is going to burst."

"Are you excited to see them?"

Little Melon nodded happily. "Yes! Mello’s excited!"

"Me too." She grinned back at him.

"Oh my, both of you are early." Ji Ruo said as she entered the dining room.

"Good morning, grandma!"

"Good morning, little one." She smiled back at him. Seeing Little Melon’s bright face in the morning made her feel good.

"Breakfast is ready, Xiao Gua, why don’t you go call grandpa?"

Feng Ning arrived in the Xia manor later that day. He was wearing a black business suit and was waiting for Xia Meilin in the living room.

"It’s been a while since we last saw you Ning’er." Xia Jiamu said with a smile.

"How’s your parents?" Ji Ruo asked.

"My parents are doing well, grandpa. They’ll be coming here next month to spend Christmas here." Feng Ning placed the cup of tea on the table.

"Ah, sorry for making you wait." Xia Meilin said as she entered the living room.

When Feng Ning turned his head, he was surprised to see Xia Meilin... pregnant. It has just been four months since they last met and yet here she was, pregnant. He couldn’t help but wonder if what he found out was really true.

Xia Meilin looked beautiful than ever. Her eyes glimmered and she doesn’t look like she was been treated badly.

Xia Meilin turned to her grandparents and smiled. "Grandma, grandpa."

Ji Ruo nodded at her before she stood up. "Let’s go, sweetheart. Let’s give the young ones some privacy."

After Xia Jiamu and Ji Ruo left the room, Xia Meilin went to sit on the sofa. She rested her hands on her tummy before she looked at Feng Ning and smiled. "How are you, Ning-ge?"

"How can you be like this?" Feng Ning’s face turned serious. "You’re living under the same roof with your rapist." His eyes fell on her enlarged belly. "Did he forced you on that too?"

Xia Meilin was surprised with what he suddenly said. "What... what do you mean?"

"Don’t pretend, Xiao Mei. I have did some research and found out about the truth between you and him." Feng Ning lowered his head and clenched his fists tight. "This is why you were forced to marry him, right?"

Xia Meilin sighed. She rested her back against her the couch. Feng Ning didn’t disturb her for a couple of months, it was because of this. No wonder he wants to meet her now.

"I love him." Xia Meilin said seriously. "And he didn’t raped me."

"How can you still protect him?!" Feng exclaimed. He went to her and held her hands. "If you’re afraid of him, you don’t have to. I’m here, I will protect you, Xiao Mei."

Xia Meilin’s eyes softened. Feng Ning was really a nice guy. Even in her past life, he offered to help her and because of that, he became her light and hope.

But this time, Xia Meilin doubted what really happened that night. She knows Lu Yifeng, he wouldn’t sleep with a stranger like her unless something influenced his thoughts. If he wasn’t drunk, then that could only mean that he was drugged in another way. This was her belief and she was not going to change her mind about it.

"What happened that night was all because of Lin Qingge and her father. We were victims of them." She pulled her hand away from his hold. "I am not afraid of him, Ning-ge. I truly love him."

"Is he threatening you? Is this why you’re saying this?" Feng Ning continued on asking. He refused to believe that Xia Meilin could fall in love with a guy like him. "We can go to the police, we can use the media to help you. He wouldn’t be able to do anything about it, you can-"

"He’s not threatening me, Ning-ge." She cut him off. "In fact, he’s treating me well. I am living happily with him so if you’re here to destroy my relationship with him then you better leave."

When Feng Ning saw how cold Xia Meilin look at him, he felt like his chest was been stabbed by a knife.
