Marrying a childless superior, she became pregnant and lived a carefree life in the 1970s.

Chapter 296 Bad Romance Arrives, Just Cut It Off

The scan results came out in just a few seconds.

Just as she guessed.

It's not that Chunxing can't give birth, but that Zhang Jianjun can't give birth.

Gu Jianing's expression immediately turned ugly, even more so than when Niu Cui brought Zhang Qiumei to her door to make a scene.

What she hates most is this kind of hypocritical man who uses women as a shield.

It's clearly their own problem, yet they try to shift the blame and blame onto the woman.

She remembered what the military wives said about how Niu Cui, her mother-in-law, forced her former daughter-in-law to divorce, and now she was using the inability to have children to curse and pressure Chunxing.

Gu Jianing's gaze fell on a woman with a little girl who was peering at her from outside the door.

That must be Chunxing.

Although she had only seen him once from afar, Gu Jianing still recognized him.

Chunxing may be completely unaware of this, and may even feel guilty and ashamed for not being able to have a child with Zhang Jianjun.

Zhang Jianjun, however, concealed the truth.

Hypocritical and shameless!
Meanwhile, Zhang Jianjun, who was being dragged along by his mother who was crying and complaining, suddenly noticed that Gu Jianing was looking at him strangely.

He didn't know the reason.

Zhang Jianjun genuinely had no idea that his sister had taken a liking to Sheng Zexi.

He even brought his mother to confront Sheng Tuan's wife.

Speaking of which, he did know Gu Jianing's identity.

After all, he has risen to a fairly high position now.

However, since his family didn't mention Sheng Zexi and his wife in front of him, he didn't bring it up either.

Unexpectedly, this oversight led to this incident involving his mother and sister.

The reason Zhang Jianjun noticed Sheng Zexi and his wife was because...

It was because of this house back then.

He originally thought the house was his, but he didn't expect that the house would be assigned to Sheng Zexi, who was transferred to Huansha Island.

Because he was unwilling to accept it, he specifically went to investigate Sheng Zexi's identity.

The investigation did indeed uncover some such cases.

For example, Sheng Zexi has a father who is a leader in the Beijing Military Region, and his wife is an outstanding doctor.

But that's all he found.

He tried to get promoted to a higher level, but his superiors discovered this and he was warned.

As mentioned above, both Sheng Zexi and Gu Jianing are people who were instructed by their superiors to be protected.

Information must not be leaked.

Zhang Jianjun was disciplined for conducting an unauthorized investigation of the couple.

It was from that moment that Zhang Jianjun realized that Sheng Zexi and his wife were not simple people, and that he should not provoke them.

Of course, Zhang Jianjun was jealous of Sheng Zexi.

They were jealous of his powerful background, his father's high status, and his abilities—he was 10 years younger than them, yet he had become a regimental-level cadre just like them, and his future was bright.

She was jealous that he had such an outstanding and beautiful wife as Gu Jianing, who had given birth to twins for Sheng Zexi, and was even pregnant with another one now.

And he.

Nothing at all.

You can't even have children!
However, no matter how jealous or resentful Zhang Jianjun was, reason told him that he couldn't provoke Sheng Zexi and his wife.

Therefore, when he occasionally encountered Sheng Zexi, his attitude was always very good.

I never expected that his mother and younger sister would be so brainless as to come to Gu Jianing's door and make a scene.

Zhang Jianjun was furious.

Are these two crazy?

Actually, if Sheng Zexi were interested in his younger sister, that would be a different story.

He was quite happy to have a brother-in-law like Sheng Zexi.

But the key point is that Sheng Zexi is said to have a very good relationship with his wife. I heard that the family even takes a walk together every night after dinner. And Gu Jianing is so outstanding.

Anyone with eyes can see that no one would choose Zhang Qiumei over Gu Jianing.

Zhang Jianjun knew he couldn't let the matter escalate.

After thinking for a moment, he immediately stepped forward with a smile and said, "Dr. Gu, I'm so sorry."

“My mother and younger sister are just talking nonsense, don’t take it to heart.”

"Don't worry, I will definitely teach them well when I get back."

"I'll make them apologize to you. You're a magnanimous person, so please don't hold it against them."

As he spoke, he quickly gestured to Niu Cui and Zhang Qiumei, "Quickly, apologize to Dr. Gu."

Niu Cui never expected that her son, whom she had always been proud of and who had always been her powerful backer, would actually ask her to apologize to a little girl.

This was unbearable for Niu Cui, who had always felt superior.

So, Niu Cui stubbornly refused to apologize.

Zhang Qiumei originally thought that her brother had come to stand up for her.

Unexpectedly, she was the one who had to apologize.

Zhang Qiumei already felt extremely embarrassed by being humiliated by Gu Jianing, and now that she had to apologize, she felt even more ashamed.

Zhang Qiumei's pride wouldn't allow her to do that.

Over here, Zhang Jianjun was almost scared to death looking at his mother and sister, who were silent and stubborn.

At that moment, a magnetic, deep voice came from outside.

"No need to apologize."

"I have already reported this to my supervisor."

"The leader will send someone over soon. The leader will decide what to do and how to handle it."

"It's Sheng Tuan who's back."

All eyes were on the tall man who had taken off his hat and entered.

That's right, the person who rushed over was none other than Sheng Zexi.

Sheng Zexi was training when he heard that someone was going to cause trouble at his house and make trouble for his wife.

He couldn't sit still, so he discussed it with his comrades, switched shifts, and came back.

On the way there, they happened to overhear some friends talking about why Zhang Qiumei and Niu Cui had come to visit.

He immediately changed course and went to his supervisor's office to report the matter before returning home.

"Brother Xi..."

Gu Jianing didn't expect Sheng Zexi to come back at this time.

Sheng Zexi stepped forward and took Gu Jianing's hand. "Are you alright?"

Gu Jianing shook her head. "I'm fine."

"Where are the children?"

"I'm sleeping in the room and haven't been woken up. Actually, I can handle this myself. If you come, wouldn't it just delay your training?"

Sheng Zexi squeezed Gu Jianing's fingers. "It's okay. I'll switch shifts with my comrades. Nothing is more important than you and the baby."

Although Amber and her children are there to protect them, they certainly won't let Gu Jianing and the children get hurt.

But Gu Jianing was heavily pregnant, and Xingxing and Yueyue were still young, so how could he be at ease?

"Although I didn't cause this, it's ultimately because of me, so it's fine for me to handle it."

Gu Jianing: Okay, that makes sense.

Zhang Qiumei's troublesome romantic entanglements are all because of this man's face.

However, Gu Jianing also knew that this matter could not be blamed on Sheng Zexi.

This man is very, very good.

However, he is so outstanding and handsome that it's normal for some people to have designs on him.

If unwanted romantic advances come along, just nip them in the bud.
