Jing Shao is infertile, but his nanny is pregnant with his child.

Jin Aiyun wiped away her tears, but more welled up. Zhou Jianguo reached out and wiped them away for her. "Okay, don't cry. You can go see him anytime you miss him."

Jin Aiyun sniffed and said irritably, "How old is he to go see him!"

Zhou Jianguo decided to shut up.

Lu Yan smiled, pursing her lips.

It must be said that all four of Zhou's sons are successful, and Jin Aiyun played a decisive role in their success.

The words Jin Aiyun just said to Zhou Changjiang are enough to prove that she is a person with a great vision.

If it were a more indecisive mother, Zhou Changjiang would never have been so determined to stay in Hainan for so many years.

Jin Aiyun wiped away her tears. "I don't miss him at all. Go home and catch up on your sleep. If you're hungry, just get up and eat something."

As she spoke, Jin Aiyun looked at Lu Yan and said, "Little Lu, you should go back to sleep too. We'll probably sleep until eight or nine o'clock. You don't need to make breakfast for us. If you want to, you can make yours. If you don't want to, you can eat at the army canteen."

Lu Yan nodded, "Okay, Auntie."

Lu Yan went back to sleep.

She was half asleep when she heard a loud bang outside, followed by Zhou Jianguo's voice.

"The whole compound is buzzing with the news. What do you suggest we do now?"

Lu Yan rubbed her eyes, sat up, grabbed her clothes and put them on. She opened the door and heard Zhou Jianguo say something.

"Thank goodness your older brother left today. If he knew, how could he go back in peace? When will you finally give me a break!"

Lu Yan walked over and saw Zhou Jianguo and his wife sitting at the table, with Zhou Yanxing kneeling in the middle with his head on the ground, and Zhou Yanchen sitting beside him with a cold face.

Lu Yaguang stood in front of Zhou Yanchen, looking at Zhou Yanxing with concern.

Zhou Nuannuan bit her lip, extremely anxious.

Lu Yan blinked, walked over, stopped in front of Zhou Nuannuan, and said in a low voice.

"What's wrong?"

"Everyone in the compound is saying that my fourth brother was all lovey-dovey with his ex-girlfriend, and that he was about to get married but then dumped her."

Lu Yan: "Who said that?"

Zhou Nuannuan's eyes reddened with anger. "Everyone says it was my fourth brother's boyfriend who said it!"

Lu Yan blinked and looked at Zhou Yanxing, who was kneeling on the ground.

Zhou Yanxing looked at the ground. "Dad, I am dating her, but I've never even held her hand, let alone kissed her. You can't believe outsiders if you don't believe me!"

"What good is it if I believe you!" Zhou Jianguo pointed at him. "If I believe you, will anyone else believe you? The fact that this news has reached the compound means it's been circulating for a while now. Everyone in our family knows about it by now. What good is it if I believe you! What good is it if the whole family believes you!"

Jin Aiyun pressed her forehead, too angry to say a word.

Zhou Yanxing raised his head. "Why should I admit to something I didn't do? I'll go tell them right now!"

As he spoke, Zhou Yanxing stood up and started to walk out.

"Stop right there!"

Zhou Jianguo yelled at him.

Zhou Yanxing stopped. "I can't let myself be wronged like this!"

"You don't need to go out and explain," Lu Yan said from the side.

Zhou Yanxing looked at her, "Sister Yan, you know, there's nothing between us, I haven't even touched her."

Lu Yan: "I believe you are useless. No one will listen to you even if you go door to door to explain. Those who are willing to believe you will speak up for you even if you don't explain. Those who are unwilling to believe you from the bottom of their hearts will think that you are presenting false evidence even if you put the evidence in front of them. They will think that you are bullying a female comrade because you are the son of a leader and you are unwilling to take responsibility."

Zhou Jianguo pointed at Zhou Yanxing and said, "Listen carefully to what Comrade Lu Yan has to say. You're twenty years old and still acting like a greenhorn! How did I give birth to such a brainless son like you?"

Zhou Yanxing lowered his head after being scolded, his self-esteem greatly hurt.

Lu Yan glanced at him, pursed her lips, and said, "It's no use being anxious now. You should think about how to deal with that woman when she arrives."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yanxing suddenly raised his head.

"She's coming?"

Zhou Jianguo snorted, "Don't you use your brain? Where did this come from?"

Zhou Yanxing was stunned for a few seconds. "You mean Liang Ling spread it herself? Why? Doesn't she care about her reputation?"

Zhou Yan said coldly, "Is reputation more important than being the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family?"

Zhou Yanxing still didn't believe it. "Impossible. It's possible that her friend spread it. Her friend wants to date me, so she deliberately spread it."

"What good does spreading such rumors do for her friend?" Lu Yan asked slowly. "Once you get involved with such rumors, Liang Ling is very likely to cling to you and force you to marry her. Then, will Liang Ling's friend still have a chance?"

Zhou Yanxing was speechless.

"Even if you don't marry Liang Ling, people will still gossip about you. Under those circumstances, would you still marry her friend? To put it another way, even if you did marry her friend, you would be disregarded by your family because of this, and her status would plummet. Is that what her friend wants?"

Zhou Yanxing closed his eyes, a chill running down his spine.

He couldn't believe that the girl he had liked for so long was so mean.

Seeing his pale face, Lu Yan said, "Of course, it's also possible that I'm wrong, but you'll soon find out whether that's true or not."

Zhou Yanyan suddenly looked at Lu Yan.

Lu Yan did not explain.

Zhou Yan said coldly, "Whoever spreads the rumors will be the first to come looking for you."

Zhou Yanxing stared at him blankly, his mind completely empty.

Lu Yan explained to him, "If it's a rumor spread by her friend, her friend's motive is to make you see your partner's true colors completely, to prevent you from having any lingering ties, and then to take the opportunity to comfort you and enter your heart."

Zhou Yanxing looked at Lu Yan, who said again, "If it's your boyfriend coming to find you, then she only has one purpose: to use this rumor to force you to marry her."

Zhou Yanxing's mind went blank.

Lu Yan: "You should think about what to do first."

Zhou Yanxing's mind was in complete chaos; he didn't know what to do.

"I'm going to talk to Liang Ling now and get to the bottom of this."

"What you should be doing right now is finding someone to testify!" Jin Aiyun finally snapped.

She already has enough of a wife like the second son's wife.

Liang Ling looks a hundred times more despicable than Liu Huifang!

If another one comes along, she'll never live again!

Zhou Yanxing didn't know who to turn to, and no matter who he asked to testify, everyone would say they were giving false testimony because of his father's status.

Zhou Yanxing plopped down on the ground, feeling cold all over.

He felt he was going to be forced into marriage, just like his second brother.

At that moment, the security guard at the compound gate rushed in from outside.

"Sir, there's a comrade outside named Liang Ling who claims to be Comrade Zhou Yanxing's girlfriend and wants to come in to wish you a Happy New Year."
