Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 848: Chapter 848: Can’t Conceal the Lower Abdomen No Matter What Chapter 848: Chapter 848: Can’t Conceal the Lower Abdomen No Matter What And it was embroidered with some gold threads which reflected different glimmers of light upon the slightest movement of the person wearing the qipao.

This was a very beautiful qipao, and it would surely look beautiful on Yan Yue as well.

However…

Yan Yue stood in front of a full-length mirror, looking at her reflection in the qipao and feeling dissatisfied no matter how she viewed it.

Her face was very beautiful, and the qipao was beautiful too, but the only unsightly part was her figure.

Her five-month pregnancy had made her abdomen particularly protruding.

If she were a bit plumper or had a larger frame, perhaps it wouldn’t be so noticeable.

But she was very thin, with a small frame, which made her belly stand out more prominently.

The women who wear qipaos usually have especially slim waists, which make them look attractive in the dress.

If she weren’t pregnant, she would look truly stunning in this qipao, no less than in a wedding gown.

But she was pregnant, five months along, and the bulging abdomen just couldn’t be concealed.

Even if the qipao was made a bit larger to make her stomach less obvious, it was still apparent.

When Master Su was taking her measurements at the time, he kindly suggested she should wear a wedding dress.

A wide wedding dress would suit her current shape best, as it would hide her belly.

At that time, when she heard what Master Su said, she felt particularly irritated and embarrassed.

She knew that a wedding dress would be better, but Ruan Tianling had said they were having a Chinese wedding, and if she didn’t agree, the wedding wouldn’t take place at all.

What could she do? She really wasn’t in a position to decide anything…

Thinking that the only wedding she’d have in her life would happen when she was at her least attractive, she felt truly aggrieved.

However, what else could she do?

She should feel fortunate that Ruan Tianling was willing to have a wedding with her at all…

But deep down, she just couldn’t genuinely feel happy about it.

Yan Yue’s mother, seeing her pale complexion, sighed and consoled her, “Yueyue, just endure it for now. Once you marry into the Ruan Family, there will be many glorious days ahead. We should look at the bigger picture and not fret too much over the present, right?”

“Mom, I want to find something to bind my belly tight,” Yan Yue said indifferently.

“That won’t do! You’re carrying the Ruan Family’s first great-grandchild–a very precious life. If you bind your belly, your in-laws will surely not look upon you favorably.”

“But the belly is so big, it really looks ugly!”

Yan Yue’s mother smiled and comforted her, “Where’s the ugliness? Even if my daughter were ten months pregnant, she wouldn’t be ugly. Plus, you’re pregnant–that’s a good thing, not that your belly is actually large. Try to be positive; after tomorrow, it’ll all be over. Come on, smile a little, don’t keep a stiff face. Ah, after tonight, my daughter will become someone else’s wife. How about letting mom stay with you tonight?”

Finally, Yan Yue cracked a slight smile, “Okay.”

*******************

The dawn broke.

Jian Yufei opened her eyes, feeling totally restless as she sat up in bed.

She was holding her wedding dress, having fallen asleep with it in her arms.

She thought about it all night and decided to take the risk and marry Ruan Tianling.

Even if the road ahead was difficult, filled with many unknown surprises, she was ready to face it bravely.

All she knew was that she did not want to leave Ruan Tianling, did not want him to take Yan Yue as his wife.

So, she had no choice but to marry him…

Thinking this, Jian Yufei let out a wry smile, truly hoping her choice was the right one.

She hoped that fate would stop toying with her.
