The military wife is pregnant and the tycoon, who has no heir, spoils her rotten.

Chapter 154 Writing a Little Note to Tell You
Gu Yunshen's heart clenched suddenly, as if struck by a heavy hammer. His heart tightened instantly, and an indescribable sense of panic spread through his heart.

He forced himself to remain calm, looked up at Lu Beiting, and tried his best to maintain his composure. He snorted coldly and said, "Hmph, why would I feel guilty?"
Knowing full well that we've never gotten along, why are you still asking me all these questions? Is there any point?

Lu Beiting narrowed his eyes, his gaze like a sharp scalpel, scrutinizing Gu Yunshen inch by inch.

Under this watchful gaze, Gu Yunshen felt extremely uncomfortable, and fine beads of sweat quietly appeared on his forehead.

After a while, Lu Beiting slowly withdrew his gaze, and the oppressive feeling that seemed to see right through him dissipated.

When Gu Yunshen saw Lu Beiting look away, the tension in his heart finally eased, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He instinctively gripped Qiao Sheng's hand tightly. Qiao Sheng winced in pain, a look of agony flashing across her face, but she dared not utter a sound.

Looking at the restrained expressions on their faces, Lu Beiting curled his lips into a mocking sneer, his laughter filled with disdain and contempt.

Then, he slowly sat down on a small stool to the side.

If you don't want to talk about it, then don't. We can always investigate.

He watched for a while longer, but found the two men's pretense utterly boring. Feeling a surge of annoyance, he got up and left.

This is Chen Yao and Qin Mingshan's territory. He figured that if the two of them really did something, they would naturally step in to deal with it, and he wouldn't need to bother with it here.

After Lu Beiting came out, he turned a corner and went straight to Qin Mingshan's office. "Oh, a rare guest!"

Qin Mingshan leaned back in his chair, toying with a sharp knife in his hand, the blade gleaming coldly under the light.

He looked up at Lu Beiting, his face showing a hint of mockery and teasing, but his eyes also revealed a trace of vigilance.

Lu Beiting sat down to the side, his expression calm yet somewhat cold, and said, "Gu Yunshen and this Qiao Sheng are a bit suspicious. We're going back now. You can handle it yourself."

Upon hearing that he was going back, Qin Mingshan immediately sat up straight. His previous lazy expression vanished instantly, replaced by a flash of excitement and curiosity in his eyes. He pressed on, "I heard Beishan is one of your soldiers? How is it? Did you embarrass me?"

Lu Beiting raised an eyebrow, a slight smile playing on his lips, and said with a hint of teasing, "Not bad, Xiaxia said she's better than you."

Upon hearing this, Qin Mingshan's smile froze instantly, and he rolled his eyes speechlessly.

Better than him? He doesn't believe it! This guy is just deliberately trying to annoy me.

"Get out of here!"

Qin Mingshan looked rather displeased and pretended to be angry as he began to shoo people away.

Lu Beiting should hurry back to his little territory. Who can stand his teasing? They always have to bicker every time they meet.

Lu Beiting snorted coldly and left with a hint of triumphant smugness.

When he returned to the Shen family home and did not see Xia Zhi, he knew in his heart that she was still fast asleep.

Shen Changming was still sitting on the sofa, not asleep yet. When he saw him, a hint of relief and concern flashed in his eyes, and he couldn't help but call out to him, "Beiting."

Upon hearing this, Lu Beiting stopped in his tracks, his face immediately adopting a respectful expression. He walked over and sat down opposite Shen Changming, saying, "Grandpa Shen."

Shen Changming nodded, looking at him gently, and said earnestly, "Beiting, Xia is a medical prodigy. Do you really want her to stay with you forever?"

Xia Zhi's achievements have gradually spread, and many people are inquiring about her. Medical universities are offering high salaries to hire her, and even the national government is interested in having her participate in research projects. Lu Beiting looked up at Shen Changming, his eyes filled with determination and tenderness, and said:

"Grandpa Shen, you're overthinking it. Xiaxia is free to go wherever she wants and do whatever she wants. It's just that the situation is special right now, and safety is the most important thing. From now on, she can do whatever she wants. I will fully support her."

Seeing that he had no intention of hindering Xia Zhi's career development, Shen Changming smiled with satisfaction and nodded.

"By the way, Grandpa Shen, we're heading back in a few days. Thank you so much for taking care of us these past few days," Lu Beiting said gratefully, his eyes full of sincerity.

Shen Changming waved his hand and said kindly, "You're too kind. You're like family. Get some rest."

Lu Beiting nodded and exchanged a few more pleasantries with Shen Changming.

He then turned and went upstairs. When he reached the door, he gently pushed it open, his movements extremely careful, as if afraid of making the slightest noise and waking Xia Zhi.

He tiptoed to the bedside and, by the dim moonlight, saw Xia Zhi sleeping soundly on the bed. Her face looked exceptionally serene in the soft light.

A surge of tenderness welled up in Lu Beiting's heart.

He turned around and quickly washed up, trying to control the sound of the water.

After washing up, he quietly got into bed. As soon as he got into bed, perhaps Xia Zhi noticed the movement, she turned over in a daze, leaned out and hugged him.

Lu Beiting was taken aback, then a doting smile appeared on his face, and he reached out and gently patted her back.

Then he shrank back slightly, as if afraid of touching her slightly protruding belly.

After staying at the Shen family's house for two more days, the group finally embarked on their journey home.

On the bus, Lu Beiting specially bought a small blanket so that Xia Zhi could cover herself with it when she was sleepy.

He looked at Zhang Yi, who was driving, with a questioning and confirming look in his eyes, and asked, "Is everything arranged?"

Zhang Yi turned to look at him, nodded firmly, and said, "Yes, Commander Chen and Battalion Commander Qin told us to go back with peace of mind, and that nothing will happen."

Lu Beiting smiled, a smile that conveyed a sense of reassurance and trust, and said, "Then let's trust him."

Zhang Yi couldn't help but chuckle twice, thinking to himself that Battalion Commander Qin had actually said he would definitely not let those people who were following them leave the city. If this matter wasn't handled well, given the battalion commander's petty nature, he would probably write notes to his superiors every day to complain about him.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yi couldn't help but laugh out loud, and the atmosphere in the car became more relaxed.

Xia Zhi gazed at the scenery rushing past the window, her thoughts drifting away. She gently stroked her slightly protruding belly.

There are only six months left until the resumption of the college entrance examination. By then, I will be in my late pregnancy, and I don't know if I will be able to take the exam smoothly.

However, the college entrance examination in this era shouldn't be too difficult.

Thinking this, she rested her chin on her hand, gazing wistfully out the window, her eyes revealing a hint of confusion and anxiety. "What's wrong?"

Lu Beiting noticed her unusual behavior and asked her in a low voice, his voice full of concern and his eyes showing a hint of worry.

Xia Zhi leaned against him and whispered, "I was just wondering if I'd still be able to take the college entrance exam."

Actually, it doesn't matter whether you take the exam or not, but in this day and age, going to university is like gilding yourself and having better career prospects.
