The lady is pregnant! Third Master, please restrain yourself after the marriage.

Xiao Beixun's eyes were dark, a hint of sarcasm flashing across his face: "The more confident you are, the harder you'll fall."

He straightened his well-tailored suit, put one hand in his pocket, and strode away.

The dark silhouette exudes nobility and unapproachability.

That aura of asceticism and detachment was completely different from the frenzy he had just displayed.

Jiang Nan's heart skipped a beat, and she blurted out instinctively:

"You're not giving me your contact information? What if I'm really pregnant?"

Xiao Beixun paused, raised an eyebrow, and scoffed dismissively:

"If you get pregnant, I'll give you the chance to become the third wife of the Xiao family."

The words fell.

The noble and tall figure had disappeared from Jiang Nan's sight.

She was stunned.

Xiao Beixun, did you agree?

However, his reaction just now struck her as odd.

They seemed certain that she couldn't conceive.

joke.

When she was examined, even the doctor praised her for having better physical condition than the average person.

To put it simply, she is highly fertile.

Regardless, she was determined to win over Xiao Beixun and make him her protector.

Only in this way can we have a chance to take back the company left by our parents.

She didn't go to the dinner party today; instead, she went straight home.

Strictly speaking, it was the home of my uncle, Wen Jizong.

When he was nine years old, his parents died in a car accident, leaving behind a huge corporation.

She was still young, so her uncle naturally took over the management.

From then on, she lived with her uncle.

In the blink of an eye, fourteen years have passed.

For the past fourteen years, she has been a glamorous, proud, pure, and noble young lady.

On the surface, her uncle treated her with kindness and care, which made her feel fortunate that, despite the passing of her parents, she still had the love and care of her uncle and aunt.

Unexpectedly, I overheard all of that two weeks ago.

Her uncle not only wanted to take over the company, but also planned to marry her off to Xiao Ziqian, and then find an opportunity to kill her and ruin her family.

Jiang Nan clenched his fists tightly, his hatred churning wildly in his chest.

At that moment, several footsteps and disgruntled voices came from the doorway.

"Where did Jiang Nan go?! On such an important day, he just ran away without saying a word."

"What if the Xiao family is dissatisfied with us because of this and doesn't agree to the marriage?"

"We've been planning this for so long, we can't let it all be ruined like this!"

came back!

Jiang Nan's eyes sharpened, and he turned and strode toward the door with a smile on his face.

"Uncle, Aunt, Cousin—you're back."

She wore a pure white long dress, which made her fair and flawless face look especially beautiful.

The three of them froze, exchanging glances.

They were afraid that Jiang Nan would hear what they had just said.

Wen Jizong said sternly, "Nannan, today is the day you and Ziqian are supposed to discuss your engagement. Why did you leave without saying a word? We, Ziqian, and his parents have been waiting for you for a long time, and we couldn't get through to you on the phone. This is outrageous."

Aunt Qi Nianci scolded, "If you have other things to do, you should tell us so we can make alternative arrangements. How have you become so willful?"

In the past, Jiang Nan would have blamed herself for being inconsiderate and making her uncle and aunt unhappy.

But now, she feels nauseous.

"Yes, cousin, you have no idea how embarrassed Ziqian was today. You left without saying goodbye, and he kept saying good things about you to his parents, making excuses for you."

This time, it was her good cousin, Wen Wan, who spoke.

In reality, she had already secretly hooked up with Xiao Ziqian.

With her elegant makeup and delicate princess dress, she approached Jiang Nan in a soft voice, wanting to take her arm.

Jiang Nan remained calm and composed, still smiling. "I broke up with Xiao Ziqian a few days ago, and I also told my uncle that I wouldn't get engaged anymore, but you didn't believe me."

"If the Xiao family is unhappy with me, that's fine too. Why don't you marry Xiao Ziqian, cousin?"

"That way, the marriage between the two families won't be ruined. Uncle and Aunt, don't you agree?"

After Jiang Nan finished speaking, he looked at the two hypocritical people.

Over the years, the two of them have outwardly shown her great affection.

In reality, he was secretly plotting how to kill her.

Jiang Nan felt as if her heart was being torn apart, as if someone had cruelly split her in two; the pain was so unbearable that she wanted to die.

But she can't die.

Wen Wan froze, a fleeting look of panic crossing her face.

Does Jiang Nan know something?

"Cousin, didn't you love Ziqian so much? Why did you break up with him? Besides, how could I marry Ziqian in your place?"

"Isn't breaking up normal?"

Jiang Nan snorted, "Didn't you say he was a good person? I have no objection to you marrying him."

Qi Nianci's expression changed: "Jiang Nan, what you're saying is getting more and more outrageous!"

Wen Jizong frowned, feeling that Jiang Nan had suddenly become a different person.

He used both soft and hard tactics, saying, "The Xiao family is the head of the four major families in Hong Kong. Ziqian treats you well. It's normal to quarrel. Don't make a scene and say you won't get engaged. Your uncle has been cultivating you for many years and only wants you to be happy and carefree for the rest of your life after you marry him. Don't act out now and disappoint your uncle."

Happiness without worries?

Jiang Nan sneered inwardly.

I don't want to get entangled with them any longer. I'm afraid that if we break off relations now, they might change their plans and kill me in a heartbeat.

She pretended to be hesitant, "Uncle, let me think about it some more. I'm still young, and I really don't want to get married so early. I also want to stay by your side and spend more time with you."

Wen Jizong immediately dispelled his doubts and patted her back with a smile to comfort her.

"Silly child, this will always be your home, and you can come back anytime. You've married into such a wonderful Xiao family, and I can finally give your parents a satisfactory explanation."

Qi Nianci smiled gently and lovingly, "That's right, your uncle and I just hope you can live a happy and carefree life. The Xiao family is a prestigious family, Ziqian loves you, and you love her too, isn't that perfect?"

"The Wen family will always be your home. You can come back whenever you want."

"Yes, cousin. Ziqian is such a good catch. If you really break up with him and don't marry him, what if another woman seduce him away?"

If Jiang Nan hadn't overheard their conversation that day, she would have been moved to tears upon hearing these words.

But now, she wanted nothing more than to tear off their ugly faces.

But she can't.

She also needs to be careful and protect herself.

Jiang Nan made up an excuse to brush off today's events.

Although the three found it strange, they didn't suspect anything further.

Jiang Nan returned to her room, took out a plastic bag containing medical preservation fluid from her bag, and inside was a wad of paper.

Jiang Nan looked at the crumpled paper and thought of her best friend Qin Huan, who was a doctor.

She thought of something and went to the hospital to find someone without saying a word.

Qin Huan was taken aback when he learned of her intentions: "You're only twenty-three! Why do you want to get pregnant? And whose is this?"

Jiang Nan couldn't tell her the truth. "Never mind that, just tell me if it's okay or not."

Qin Huan shook his head. "Although medical preservation fluid was used, the survival rate is very low. Your family owns a pharmaceutical company, so you should know that."

Jiang Nan looked disappointed. She had been secretly studying medicine all along, so of course she knew.

They just haven't given up yet.

Jiang Nan left the consultation room and walked out of the hospital gate with disappointment.

Looking up, I saw a tall, imposing figure striding towards the luxury car, his cold, hard face tense, giving off an unapproachable aura.

Xiao Beixun!

Jiang Nan's eyes lit up slightly. Not wanting to miss any opportunity, she lifted her foot to chase after him.
