She Got Pregnant After a One Night Stand with a Werewolf

Chapter 79

Nanfeng Courtyard.

The werewolves lay listlessly here and there over the sofas, stairs, and stair railings. They sighed heavily.

They did not manage to give Shang Xi her birthday gifts since she was not spending her birthday at Nanfeng Courtyard.

She just left with her cub in tow.

This was an outcome they had never expected.

Yesterday, they found out from the cub that today was Shang Xi's birthday. So they all prepared small gifts for her and envisioned how delighted Shang Xi would be when receiving their thoughtful gifts.

How she would praise their good taste.

But reality hit them hard on their heads, leaving all the werewolves numb.

Still dizzy, they could hardly believe what had happened and were reluctant to accept the fact.

"Shang Xi was my first human friend. Awooo..." Red tail's big ears drooped and his tail stopped wagging.

"I thought we had quite a good relationship. Why didn't she even take our gifts? Sigh! Sigh!"

"I can accept that she's not spending her birthday at Nanfeng Courtyard. But why didn't she take our gifts... Does she dislike them? Or...dislike us?"

Hearing this, the werewolves became even more dispirited.

Yellow tail slid powerlessly along the second floor railing down to the first floor. "But she would tell us stories. She always smiled at us."

"If she disliked us, she would have ignored us long ago."

But just now, I felt she was so distant from us. It's as if Shang Xi really doesn't like us at all. Sigh!"

"Why does she have to like you?" Cang Ling leaned against the wall with a bottle of wine in his hand. He took a sip. Earlier, he did not join the gift-giving queue either.

He gave a wry smile, "Just because you little wolves think she's nice and easy to get along with? So you like her?"

"Have you ever considered how you look in Shang Xi's eyes? Whether you're easy to get along with? Whether wolves are nice?"

Cyan tail lowered his eyes, "So Uncle, are you saying that in Shang Xi's opinion, we're not nice and hard to get along with? That we are bad wolves?"

After taking another sip of wine, Cang Ling slowly said, "Not so bad as to be called bad wolves. But there is something you did wrong, unjustifiable."

Seeing the dejected werewolves, his tone grew heavier. "Shang Xi is the mother of the Head Alpha's cub. No matter whether the Head Alpha acknowledged it at that time, she can be considered the lady of Nanfeng Courtyard!"

"The last time she personally cooked a meal for you, how many of you showed up? You all put on great airs! Why should she like you?"

The werewolves fell silent.

Black Tail said softly, "I went downstairs to eat."

The scars on Cang Ling's fierce face looked even more menacing. "Anyone else?"

Green Tail pursed his lips, the light in his eyes slightly dimmed, "She called me but I didn't go. I had no appetite that day."

With tears brimming his eyes, Red Tail sobbed, "I also couldn't eat. I thought Gray Tail was dead. Gluttonous as I am, even I couldn't eat a thing then. My throat hurt from all the crying."

"Uncle, I didn't sleep the whole night. I couldn't eat either..."

Cang Ling sneered coldly, "So what if you guys had no appetite? In Shang Xi's eyes, in that situation, do you know what she must have thought?"

"She must have thought: You were blaming her! Her cub's accident made you detest her! Reproach her!"

Cang Ling's words slammed into the werewolves like sledgehammers, crushing their hearts.

They widened their eyes in disbelief and shock.

"No..."

"How could I think like that..."

Murmuring to himself, Yellow Tail said, "I didn't. I never meant that! I have never blamed her! She's my only human friend. I like her the most!"

Black Tail pursed his lips. "Brown Tail did argue with me using that reason."

Shaking his head in disbelief, Cyan Tail's eyes flashed a hint of hurt. "But I never thought like that. I've always liked Shang Xi a lot. I'd be overjoyed if she could become the Head Alpha's mate. I've always thought this way."

"So...just because I didn't eat the breakfast she made that day, she has disliked me all this while?"

After getting along with Shang Xi for so long, Cyan Tail kept shaking his head, eyes wide open, seemingly finding it hard to accept this conclusion.

After that breakfast incident, they felt guilty about Shang Xi. At the same time, they were genuine and good to her not because she was the Head Alpha cub's mother, but because she was Shang Xi.

No matter her future relationship with the Head Alpha, her position in their hearts remains unchanged. She is their friend. If she ever faces danger, they will rush to help her without hesitation.

Now, feeling disliked by Shang Xi, all the werewolves became upset.

Sobbing, Red Tail said, "Wuwuwu...I must explain clearly to her. I only had no appetite at that time. She's my only human friend. I like her the most!"

Cang Ling shook his head, "Bunch of stupid pups! When she comes back tonight, don't go crazy. Talk and do less."

"Can't you see what kind of environment she wants? She doesn't want too much awkwardness. Think of her cub, compromise with her."

"You're not that young anymore. In the human world, over-the-top emotional displays will backfire someday." After a gulp of wine, images of his past self seemed to surface in his mind.

Back then, he was also wild in the human world, fearless, feeling he could leap, climb, was strong while humans were weak and powerless.

Just back from Snow Mountain, he was arrogant and proud, believing he could protect her completely. But reality hit him hard in the face. He couldn't even protect his own mate. He was useless trash.

Sitting in a corner sofa, Blue Tail lowered her eyes to look at the little gift in her palm. Thinking of what Shang Xi must have felt then, how distressed she must have been after cooking so much yet no one came to eat.

With the thought "they didn't come because they blame me" plaguing her, how painful it must have been for Shang Xi.

She had hurt Shang Xi so deeply.

It's only natural that Shang Xi dislikes them.

Besides, they were not close. Why would she accept their gifts? Her birthday has nothing to do with them.

Tears kept streaming down Blue Tail's cheeks nonstop. She's always so useless, crying at the slightest thing, besides crying, she can do nothing.

She is unpopular with the werewolf she loves.

She is also disliked by the pure human she admires.

She is weaker than pure humans.

How can someone like her ever hope to be Qin Ming's mate? In the werewolf clan and human world alike, he is capable and outstanding, so excellent and dazzling. It would be odd if he would fancy her.

At that moment...

The deep guilt towards Shang Xi, the agonizing feeling of her dislike, and Qin Ming's indifference all welled up in Blue Tail's heart. She started coughing uncontrollably with tears smearing her face.

She finally realized clearly. Qin Ming claimed he was still young and not ready to determine a mate not because he thought she was still young.

He just doesn't like her.

Yes, he just doesn't like her.

Something that could simply be conveyed in the three words "don't like you", yet he insisted on giving all sorts of "excuses".

She's right. She thinks those were excuses.

She will not expect anymore, not wait anymore, won't care anymore.

She doesn't want to like him anymore.

At the same time, on the other side...

Gu's Group Headquarters

Gu Wenkai convened a high-level meeting. He wants Shang Xi to live free from worries about material needs for the rest of her life. So he has decided to gift her some of his personal share holdings, which received unanimous approval.

From now on, no matter how she wants to live her life, he will help her.

He will accompany her from afar.
