Jiang Nan met his probing gaze, resisted the urge to roll her eyes at him, and pointed to the sign at the corner of CT City.

Only then did he say with a forced smile, "Third Master, this is the gastroenterology department."

Xiao Beixun scoffed, "I knew you couldn't get pregnant."

Jiang Nanyou was ridiculed.

She continued to smile brightly at him, "What, Third Master, are you so eager for me to get pregnant?"

She gestured with her chin towards the CT scan room next door. "Even if it's her, it won't work?"

As Jiang Nan said those words, he felt his heart sink and throb.

The electronic broadcast was urging them on, and the female doctor's voice could be heard coming from inside:

"Is Jiang Nan here? Otherwise, we'll have to go too far."

Xiao Beixun's tall figure stood in front of her, casting a shadow over her.

It's blocking the way.

Jiang Nan wanted to push him away, but she wasn't bold enough to do so.

She maintained a polite smile, "Third Master, please move aside, I need to go in."

"Your fake smile is ugly," Xiao Beixun said abruptly.

It was like throwing a bucket of cold water over Jiang Nan's head.

Her smile remained unchanged, and she retorted sarcastically, "It's also ridiculous that Third Master looks so weak."

"..."

Xiao Beixun's dark eyes stared at her, his oppressive aura pressing down on her.

Suddenly, Ji Yishu's voice drifted from inside the room, "Brother Beixun..."

The voice was urgent yet filled with vulnerability.

Xiao Beixun shifted his sharp gaze from her face and strode away.

Jiang Nan hurriedly entered the CT room.

The doctor was examining another patient and told her that her turn had passed and she should wait.

She had no choice but to leave.

Just then, the phone rang.

It was Qi Nianci calling.

She answered the phone, "Auntie, what's wrong?"

Her voice was cool and aloof.

Qi Nianci was taken aback for a few seconds before explaining her purpose, "I'm having afternoon tea with Madam Xiao, and we were just talking about your engagement with Ziqian. Please come and sit down for a while."

It's been a little over a week since the engagement.

Seeing that the examination was not yet over, and that the nausea and discomfort in her throat had subsided, and considering that she had to face this matter eventually, Jiang Nan agreed to go.

She quickly walked out of the hospital building, got her car, and left.

At this moment, Xiao Beixun brought Ji Yishu out and saw her driving away. His eyes darkened slightly.

"Brother Bei Xun, I feel so bad, it hurts so much," Ji Yishu said pitifully.

Xiao Beixun did not respond.

Seeing that he didn't react, Ji Yishu raised her head in dissatisfaction. She saw him looking in the direction of the door and followed his gaze.

In the dim light, Ji Yishu saw the red sports car turn the corner and disappear completely from sight.

"Brother Bei Xun, I'm talking to you, what are you looking at?" Ji Yishu asked, puzzled and full of grievance.

Xiao Beixun said in a deep voice, "If you're not feeling well, go back and rest. I'll have the driver take you."

"Aren't you going to stay with me? I'm feeling so awful..."

Ji Yishu was very dissatisfied, but when she saw Xiao Beixun frowning, she immediately changed her tone.

"Then remember to come see me when you're done with your work."

Xiao Beixun nodded and asked Luo Ke to help her into the car.

Where did she go?

Xiao Beixun suddenly spoke, his voice still low and deep.

Rock's mind went blank for two seconds, but fortunately, he had been following him for a long time and quickly realized who the "she" he was asking about was.

"Ms. Jiang received a phone call and left without undergoing any examination."

Rock asked, "Should we check?"

"No need, let's go back to the company," Xiao Beixun instructed.

"Yes, Third Master."

Just as Luo Ke agreed, he remembered something and said, "Miss Jiang's project has been successfully signed. It was Young Master Ziqian who signed it with her."

Xiao Beixun's face was cold and hard, his thin lips pressed into a line, and he said nothing more.

Jiang Nan has arrived at the private room of the upscale club.

Pushing open the door, I immediately saw Qi Nianci sitting on the sofa.

On the coffee table were exquisite cakes and pastries, and two teacups.

Aunt.

Jiang Nan greeted her, but suddenly smelled a faint fragrance and became alert.

It's possible that the Tangde incident left a lingering trauma.

"Unfortunately, the First Madam had something to attend to on your way here, so she left first." Qi Nianci picked up the teacup in front of her and slowly took a sip of tea.

Jiang Nan, "So what did you all talk about?"

Qi Nianci raised her red lips slightly, glanced at her with raised eyebrows, and said, "What else can we talk about? The engagement process will proceed as usual, but keep it simple and wait until your wedding."

Jiang Nan remained silent, her expression indifferent.

She has no interest in, and will not actually get engaged to, Xiao Ziqian, let alone get married.

Qi Nianci pointed to the seat opposite her, "Sit down, it's been a long time since we've had a proper chat together."

Jiang Nan sat down seemingly obediently.

Qi Nianci put down her teacup and smiled, "You've been like a completely different person lately. Not only have you been insisting on going to the company, but you've also bought a car worth millions."

"Nan Nan, when did you become so high-profile and vain?"

vanity?

Jiang Nan glanced over and smiled at her dazzling jewelry.

"My aunt is wearing that bracelet; it has a superb, smooth, icy texture. It must be worth over three million, right?"

"A pigeon-egg-sized gemstone diamond ring, five hundred?"

"That bag seems to be a limited edition too..."

Jiang Nan's voice was clear and crisp, and she had a smile on her face, but her words sounded particularly sharp and unpleasant to Qi Nianci.

Qi Nianci was furious. She squinted and said angrily, "Hurry up and get married. Once you're married, everything will be over. I can't control you anymore."

After saying that, she stood up abruptly, grabbed her limited-edition bag, and stormed off in her high heels.

A cold glint appeared in Jiang Nan's eyes. He gave a cold, curt smile and stood up to leave with an air of haughtiness.

We arrived at the parking lot.

Jiang Nan couldn't find his car keys; they were probably lost in the private room. He was about to go back to look for them.

Suddenly, two men in black walked towards her, looking like they had ill intentions.

Jiang Nan felt a sudden alarm bell ring in his heart and immediately began to think about what to do.

The two people were about to arrive in front of them.

Jiang Nan didn't care about anything else and turned to run.

Upon seeing this, the two men immediately gave chase.

Jiang Nan ran desperately towards the intersection. Seeing that she was about to reach the intersection, she felt that her high heels were in the way, so she quickly kicked them off and ran into the road.

Seeing a black car approaching, Jiang Nan didn't even look at the license plate number before running out and spreading his arms to stop it.

A sudden screech of brakes rang out.

Still shaken, Rock said, "Third Master, it's Miss Jiang."

Xiao Beixun, sitting in the back seat, raised his eyelids and saw her face full of panic in front of the windshield, her brows furrowing almost imperceptibly.

Rock quickly got out of the car.

Seeing her barefoot, he asked in surprise, "Miss Jiang, what happened?"

Jiang Nan was out of breath and couldn't speak, looking in the direction of the two men.

Seeing that things were not going well, the two men exchanged a glance and quickly turned and left.

Jiang Nan finally breathed a sigh of relief, but perhaps due to excessive fright, that nauseous and uncomfortable feeling returned.

She bent over and gagged uncomfortably.

At this moment, Xiao Beixun came to her side, his brows furrowed deeply. "Are you sick?"

"..."

Jiang Nan glared at him fiercely, vomiting so badly that she couldn't even muster the energy to curse him.

Seeing how uncomfortable she looked, Xiao Beixun picked her up and put her in the car.

"Go to the hospital."

An hour later, Jiang Nan was already lying on a makeshift hospital bed.

His face was pale and bloodless, which, far from being unattractive, added a strong sense of brokenness.

Unlike her usual aloof and proud demeanor, she evoked feelings of pity and tenderness.

Xiao Beixun withdrew his gaze from her face and asked in a low voice, "Who are those people?"

Jiang Nan shook his head blankly. "I don't know."

"You've offended so many people." Xiao Beixun's words were always sharp and unpleasant.

Jiang Nan was about to retort.

At that moment, the ward door opened, and the female doctor walked in smiling, holding the examination report:

"Ms. Jiang doesn't have a stomach problem; her vomiting and discomfort are because she's pregnant."

Jiang Nan was suddenly stunned.

Even Xiao Beixun's cold face showed a hint of surprise, and he looked at Jiang Nan with a complicated expression.

Jiang Nan took the test results and confirmed that she was indeed pregnant.

Her heart was instantly filled with excitement, and she jumped out of bed to wrap her arms around Xiao Beixun's neck:

"Xiao Beixun, did you hear that? I'm really pregnant! You promised to marry me, you can't go back on your word!"
