Not ready

Somewhere in country S.

The old man was sitting inside his study room, sipping his favourite jasmine flavoured tea.

" Sir Mr Simon met Mr Xie Yufan outside Yang Mansion." The subordinate said.

" Is Yufan okay?" The old man asked.

" Yes Sir Mr Yufan is fine."

" Good. What about Ming?" The old man asked.

" Miss is out for a vacation with Mr Li and some friends." The subordinate said.

The old man nodded his head and said," Okay. Keep an eye on Simon and that weird Chen guy." The old man said before gesturing the subordinate to leave.

.....

Next day.

Li Singtan woke up when someone knocked at his room door.

Carefully removing Xie Ming's legs and hands from his body, he got up and opened the door.

" What is it?" Li Singtan asked.

" Good morning sir. There is a call for you in the wireless from country S." Steven said.

Li Singtan nodded his head and left along with Steven.

....

" What is it Han Zihao?" Li Singtan asked.

" Good morning sir. I wouldn't have disturbed you if it wasn't something important. The board meeting of Chen Enterprise is scheduled this afternoon. As the second highest share holders you and Mr Yang are expected to be there. I have already selected someone who will be representing you from Li Corporation and I have asked Mr Yangs assistant to chose one from Yang Enterprise as well." Han Zihao said.

" Hmm. Inform Uncle Chen about the meeting and our plan. He is the biggest share holder so he must be present too. It's time to take over Chen Enterprise and the hand it over to someone more capable." Li Singtan said before hanging up the call.

Li Singtans plan was not to take over Chen Enterprise but to kick Chen Siquan out and hand over the shares that he and Yutang owned and the CEO position to Uncle Chen. He was also planning to resume all the collaborations with Chen Enterprise which he had terminated, after uncle Chen takeovers the company.

As Li Singtan was busy with his own thoughts, Yutang came down from his room followed by Mike.

"Good morning boys." Mike exclaimed happily. This was probably the best morning in the last eight years.

Yutang chuckled and said," Look at you all energised after finally using your rusted tool."

" They worked completely fine." Mike said.

Li Singtan sighed and said," Chen Siquan agreed to attend the board meeting."

" Woah I thought he would never agree." Yutang said.

Mike nodded his head and said," Attending the board meeting at this moment is equivalent to giving away his CEO position."

" Let's go for a walk and discuss few things." Li Singtan said to which the other two happily agreed.

....

Few minutes after the three men left, Yixi and Anna came out of their rooms.

" Good morning An." Yixi said.

Anna smiled and said," Good morning."

Pointing towards Anna's neck, Yixi chuckled and said," Seems like someone had a rough night."

Touching her neck, Anna smiled and stuck her tongue out.

" Where are they?" Yixi asked.

" Mike told me that they are going for a walk." Anna said before walking towards Ming's room.

Yixi nodded her head and followed Anna.

.....

Inside the room.

" Where is she?" Anna asked pointing towards the empty bed.

Suddenly Ming came out of the washroom wiping her pale wash with a towel.

Anna and Yixi rushed towards her and asked," What happened?"

" I don't know. I started feeling pukish again." Ming said before sitting on the couch.

" Morning sickness." Anna murmured.

"Huh?"

" Ming when was the last time you had your periods?" Anna asked.

" It was-" Ming widened her eyes in shock when she realised something.

Grabbing Anna's shoulder, Ming said," Anna I did not have my periods. Neither this month nor last month."

Anna smiled and said," I knew it."

Yixi gasped and said," Oh my God. Ming are you pregnant?"

Ming gulped in nervousness looking at Anna with pitiful eyes.

Anna shrugged her shoulders and said," Don't look at me like that. I cannot say anything before running few test on you but the sighs are quite evident."

" But we are not ready for this. Singtan is not ready for this." Ming said.

Yixi rolled her eyes and said," Girl you got to use protection if you don't want one."

" Let's not tell the boys about it before we confirm anything. I don't want to freak Singtan out for nothing." Ming said.

Ming closed her eyes to control her overwhelming emotions. Deep down she wished she was pregnant but she also knows that Singtan doesn't want to have a baby so soon.

Touching her stomach when she thought about the little life which was made up of Singtans and her flesh and blood, she felt happy.

" Just to be cautious you have to stop eating few dishes okay. I'll make a list for you. You can take a pregnancy test the very next day after we reach country S okay." Anna said.

Ming caught Yixi hand and asked," What if?I am pregnant but Singtan doesn't want this baby?"

" Are you crazy Ming? Why wouldn't he want this baby? I am sure that Mr Li is going to be happy." Yixi said.

" Yes Yixi is right. Singtan loves you a lot and this baby is inside you so he is definitely going to love it." Anna said with a bright smile on her face.

Ming sighed and said," I hope so he does."
