Jiang Nan smiled and replied, "Sure, where would you like to meet, Third Master?"

Xiao Ziqian saw all of this.

Xiao Ziqian's heart skipped a beat.

Whose messages are she looking at that makes her so happy?

Jiang Nan has changed a lot during this time. Could it be because of this person?

Sensing Xiao Ziqian's gaze, Jiang Nan looked up and swept it over. "Is there anything else?"

Xiao Ziqian turned around to face her again, his brows furrowed, and his tone became much more subdued.

"Jiang Nan, have you been meeting someone you shouldn't have lately?"

Jiang Nan was surprised. Could it be that he knew something?

However, she quickly felt relieved.

If Xiao Ziqian really knew something, he wouldn't have asked that question.

Jiang Nan's cold face instantly showed dissatisfaction. "You're interfering with my privacy before we're even engaged, Mr. Xiao. I think we're really not suitable for each other."

Xiao Ziqian didn't expect her to be so angry. Not wanting to affect their engagement, he had no choice but to control his temper.

Gently coax, "Don't be angry, I was just worried about you and was just asking casually."

Jiang Nan's face was indifferent.

Xiao Ziqian glanced at her. "I'll go back first and contact you later."

He hesitated before leaving the office.

As soon as the person left, Jiang Nan's expression turned cold.

Thank goodness.

Before their engagement, she was pregnant with Xiao Beixun's child.

With this child, even if she can't marry Xiao Beixun as she wishes, she can at least get the engagement called off!

As for the Jiang family's businesses, she will find a way to manage them.

Jiang Nan left work early that evening, took a shower, put on subtle makeup, and changed into a light green sleeveless dress.

The cinched waist design accentuates a perfect figure, with a slender waist that could be encircled by one hand, a slightly upturned bottom, and long, straight, slender legs.

Her proportions were perfect, her figure graceful and elegant, and her face, with its skin clinging to her bones, exuded an unparalleled sense of sophistication.

Before leaving, Jiang Nan received an address from Xiao Beixun.

Jinggang Club, the most upscale establishment in the port city.

Those who come here are all rich and powerful; Jiang Nan went there last time to look for him.

After replying with an "OK," Jiang Nan prepared to leave.

Half an hour later, when they arrived at the clubhouse, Xiao Ziqian called.

"Nan Nan, are you done with your work? Shall we meet?" Xiao Ziqian's tone was as gentle as ever.

She used to really like this kind of gentleness.

Now?

Nausea!

Jiang Nan opened the car door, her voice icy cold, "No time."

After saying that, he hung up the phone, got out of the car, and went upstairs.

Xiao Ziqian was in a VIP room at the Jinggang Club when he was hung up on and almost crushed his phone.

Seeing his expression, Wen Wan guessed the outcome and asked knowingly, "Brother Ziqian, what did my cousin say?"

Xiao Ziqian felt that Jiang Nan had been acting strangely lately, and a feeling of unease rose in his chest. "She refused to see me and hung up the phone without saying anything."

Wen Wan recalled what her mother had said before, and pretended to gasp, "Could it be that my cousin has met some man outside? Think about it, she made an excuse to move out and then went to work at the company for training..."

"They're still refusing to see you, saying it's fine, but that's like lying to a three-year-old."

Xiao Ziqian already had some doubts.

Upon hearing this, his gaze towards Wen Wan instantly turned serious. "Could it be that she has already done something to betray me outside?"

Wen Wan felt a surge of anger when she realized that he had fallen for Jiang Nan because of those words.

But when she thought of her and her mother's plans, she suppressed her dissatisfaction.

Then, deliberately stirring up trouble, she said, "My cousin has always been noble and well-mannered. She probably wouldn't have done this without someone instigating her..."

Xiao Ziqian's knuckles turned white as he gripped his phone, a gloomy look rising in his eyes as he gritted his teeth in resentment.

"I'd like to see what kind of man she's found who can compare to me!"

His concerned expression stirred a pang of jealousy in Wen Wan's heart.

That damned Jiang Nan! She looks like a pure and innocent young lady, but she's actually a slut who knows how to seduce people!

She couldn't take it anymore.

If things continue like this, Xiao Ziqian might actually develop feelings for Jiang Nan.

Guided by the club manager, Jiang Nan arrived at the door of the top-tier private room.

Suddenly my nose felt sore, and I felt like sneezing.

But she was a noble young lady, so she suppressed that feeling.

"Miss Jiang, Third Master is waiting for you inside." The manager pushed open the door to the private room, his attitude respectful and polite.

"Thanks."

Jiang Nan entered the private room with elegance and poise.

The room was lit with warm yellow lights.

Rock stood guard beside the sofa.

In the very center of the sofa sat Xiao Beixun's tall and imposing figure.

He leaned back lazily against the sofa, the overhead light casting a shadow on his face, obscuring his expression, yet the aura emanating from him was undeniably noble and imposing.

"Third Master."

Jiang Nan's pupils contracted slightly, and she walked confidently to him, calling out softly.

"Pretty punctual."

Xiao Beixun raised his hand to look at his watch, but said nothing more.

He was sparing with words and mysterious and aloof, which was his biggest impression of Jiang Nan.

"come over."

Xiao Beixun spoke in a deep voice, glancing indifferently at Luo Ke.

Rock immediately understood, nodded respectfully, and walked out.

Only two people remained in the private room.

Jiang Nan walked over cooperatively, but as soon as she got to his side, her wrist was suddenly grabbed.

With just a gentle tug, she fell into Xiao Beixun's arms and sat sideways on his lap.

Jiang Nan panicked, afraid of falling, and subconsciously raised her arms to hug his neck tightly.

She immediately turned her face away, looking at him with displeasure, "Third Master, are you trying to scare the baby out of my belly?"

Xiao Beixun frowned. "You have a sharp tongue."

Before Jiang Nan could say anything else, he raised an eyebrow and asked, "Were you just pretending all along?"

Jiang Nan is known in the circle for her noble and elegant demeanor, and for being a model of a well-bred young lady.

She could certainly hear the sarcasm in Xiao Beixun's words, but she shrugged indifferently, "It's just a persona. Third Master is the same."

Everyone says he is abstinent, aloof, and self-disciplined.

Who is a person who practices self-discipline and propriety, yet acts recklessly in a private room?

Instead of getting angry, Xiao Beixun laughed, "You've got some nerve, deliberately trying to seduce me and use me. Aren't you afraid I won't fall for it?"

afraid?

In the past, I might have been afraid.

But if she didn't do it, she would face certain death.

Rather than be killed in a cowardly manner, she'd rather take a gamble.

As it turns out, she was halfway to success.

"Third Master, no matter what, I am indeed pregnant with your child..."

Jiang Nan tilted her head slightly, observing his cold, hard face. "Don't you want your own offspring?"

Xiao Beixun's large hand landed on her flat stomach, his thin lips curling into a cold smile. "Are you so sure that the child in here is mine?"

Jiang Nan glanced at him, her eyes open and firm. "I, Jiang Nan, am a lady from a prestigious family. Not just any man can touch me."

She leaned closer, her red lips warm against his, her eyes filled with pride.

"Only a man like you deserves to be with me."

Sensing her current arrogance and confidence, a hint of amusement flickered in Xiao Beixun's dark eyes:

"I'll give you a chance. Do a paternity test. If it proves the child in your belly is mine, I'll help you."
