Before he died, my grandfather forced me to marry the richest man in the capital.

Duty room.

Su Xue carefully observed her best friend's face and expression.

Tang Junyao gently patted her. "What's wrong? Don't worry, I'm not affected at all. I'm not obsessed with him. At most, I'm just naive and made a mistake because he's handsome. Now I've turned back in time and only care about what's in my belly."

Su Xue was relieved. In the past, she would have joked that she was so powerful that she had scolded Lu Man until she was scared out of her wits.

Suddenly remembering the pile of parenting books on my desk, I thought, "Oh no, my books are still on the desk. I deliberately didn't explain, will they suspect anything?"

"Parenting books?"

Su Xue nodded repeatedly.

"No, you've forgotten what department you're in. She won't suspect anything, don't worry. Take a few minutes to rest and get ready for your night shift."

Just as she closed her eyes, Su Xue was startled by another thought: "Yao Yao, it seems like my brother has given up on me. He's been missing for several days and hasn't called me. What should I do? Is he still angry?"

Tang Junyao was also a little upset. "Let's have Su Yu come over for dinner another day so we can properly apologize."

at that time.

After leaving Lu Man's ward, Lu Jinnan went to Tiss.

Lu Man wouldn't joke about something like this. This is a big deal, and he needs to find someone to share the burden. Han Yue is undoubtedly the second choice.

Upon entering, you'll see Tiss's top escort coming out.

Lu Jinnan smiled and said, "Miss Wei, you're here so early. Young Master Han is truly blessed to have an employee like you."

Wei Ning smiled and said, "Young Master Lu is joking."

A cold voice came from inside, "Come in and talk."

Lu Jinnan adopted a nonchalant attitude. "What's wrong? Can't we chat a little longer? You're protecting me so tightly."

Han Yue looked at him like he was an idiot, completely ignoring his teasing, and said, "Speak quickly if you have something to say."

Lu Jinnan then remembered his own melon, got up, went back to close the door, and sat down. "Young Master Ji has left a seed outside."

Upon hearing this, Han Yue's eyes widened slightly, and he asked suspiciously, "Where did you hear that? Who?"

"Lu Man said it herself, that she's pregnant with Young Master Ji's child. She shouldn't be so bold as to say such a thing. No wonder she wanted to divorce her sister-in-law. Do you think Young Master Ji has lost his mind? How could he be interested in someone like Lu Man? I wouldn't even look at my own relative."

Han Yue reminded him, "Your relative." He hadn't noticed that Lu Jinnan considered Lu Man as a relative.

Lu Jinnan said casually, "She is a relative, but my dad and I have never liked her. She's a family of bloodsuckers. Today she came to my company asking me for money and projects. I refused, and then she fainted. If she hadn't been pregnant, I would have suspected she was trying to scam me."

Han Yue knew that the Lu family had been helping the Xu family in recent years, but Xu Zhong had never been cut out for business. No matter how many projects you gave him, they would still fail in his hands and couldn't be sustained for long. After so many years, it was indeed the limit.

Han Yue ignored Lu Jinnan's words and called Ji Hancheng, asking, "Where are you?"

The man opposite me spoke in a cold, succinct voice, "Company."

Han Yue: "Laitis".

"I'm not coming; I'm working overtime."

Han Yue grinned and said bluntly, "No matter how much you add your ex-wife, she's gone. Let's talk about your illegitimate child."

Ji Hancheng, sitting opposite him, looked puzzled and asked in a deep voice, "What illegitimate child?"

Hearing the words from the other end, Han Yue smiled, already having a pretty good idea of ​​what was going on. "Someone said she's pregnant with your child, aren't you going to come and acknowledge it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the call was disconnected.

About 30 minutes.

The man, dressed entirely in black that blended seamlessly with his complexion, entered with an icy expression. "What's going on?"

Han Yue continued to mock, glancing at Ji Hancheng's lower body as he spoke, "How would I know what you did? Ask yourself."

Ji Hancheng recalled that over the years, apart from that woman, he had never touched anyone else, nor had he ever had such thoughts. Even with Lu Man, there was no kissing, let alone holding hands. So it couldn't be Lu Man. Could it be that heartless woman who was pregnant?

After thinking for a moment, he tried to ask, "Is she pregnant?"

Han Yue pretended not to know, "Which 'her,' your ex-wife or Lu Man?"

"Tang Junyao".

Lu Jinnan, who was sitting and listening to the opera, seized the opportunity at this moment, "Damn, bro, you slept with your sister-in-law?"

Ji Hancheng was in a bad mood and coldly threw out a sentence at him, "It was legal to sleep with him, do you have a problem with that?"

Lu Jinnan shook his head. It wasn't like he was sleeping with his wife, so what objection could he have? If he had an objection, Ji Hancheng would suspect something was amiss.

But who was it that said that what the state recognizes doesn't mean he recognizes it? Now that he's slept with her, does that mean he recognizes it and it's legal?

Real dog.

Han Yue lit a cigarette and put it in his mouth, then tossed the whole pack to Ji Hancheng and gestured with his chin toward Lu Jinnan, "Let's ease things up, let him tell you who's pregnant."

He figured it out the day after Ji Hancheng and Tang Junyao had their relationship. Having been in the underworld, he knew all too well why a man looked so dejected. Although he had never been a slut, he had many underlings, and with the Tiss establishment, he was used to seeing such things every day.

Ji Hancheng took a drag of his cigarette and blew smoke rings at Lu Jinnan, "You're like a snail, hurry up and say it."

"Lu Man is pregnant, and they say it's your child. She's at your sister-in-law's hospital right now."

The fingers holding the cigarette paused for a moment, then he immediately stood up. "You're coming with me. I've never fucking touched a hair on her head."

A smile flickered in Han Yue's eyes as he said to the hurried man, "Explain yourself properly."

Lu Jinnan turned around and yelled at Han Yue, "Shut up." It's all because of this guy. I haven't even had a chance to sit down properly before I have to go to the hospital again.

He really didn't want to see that so-called cousin anymore; she was too scheming.

Xu Mingkai was urged on by Ji Hancheng, so he drove very fast.

Grandpa was completely bewitched by her. No matter how the family tried to persuade him, he insisted on recognizing her as his granddaughter.

As soon as the car came to a stop, Ji Hancheng got out. Lu Jinnan said to Xu Mingkai hesitantly, "Find a parking spot. Young Master Ji is dealing with his illegitimate child, so he'll be a little slow."

Xu Mingkai was completely dumbfounded. What? What the hell? An illegitimate child? So the young mistress divorced Young Master Ji because Young Master Ji cheated on her, and then the young mistress couldn't stand it and got a divorce.

After they left, Xu Mingkai, who had imagined a whole drama unfolding before his eyes, found it hard to process.

When they arrived at the emergency room, Lu Man's ward was already empty.

Because Lu Man went to the inpatient department to schedule an abortion, she needed to have a check-up beforehand.

Using his good looks, Lu Jinnan inquired about the situation and learned that his cousin had been moved to a different hospital room, naturally assuming it was to protect her pregnancy.

Ji Hancheng had a fierce look on his face, and the nurses who saw him consciously took a few steps back; his aura was too cold.

One nurse said, "This man is handsome, but he's too cold. I don't dare to get close to him. The boy next to him is much more cheerful."

The other nurse nodded. "Yes, let's get to work."

I arrived at Lu Man's hospital room.

Lu Man, who was lying in bed playing on her phone, was startled and a little guilty because she didn't expect Ji Ye to come at this time. She was afraid that this man would expose her in front of Lu Jinnan without giving her any face.

Feeling guilty, Lu Man preemptively said, "I want to talk to you alone."

Ji Hancheng paused for a moment, then gestured for Lu Jinnan to leave.

Lu Man took a deep breath and said, "I'm sorry, Acheng, I didn't mean to say the child was yours. The child's father is an important person I can't offend. Please forgive me. We just drank too much. It's not what you think. I'll have an abortion. Can you keep this a secret?"

It means, can you take the blame for me?

His face was contorted with rage, he was extremely displeased, and he said coldly, "What does this have to do with me? This child isn't mine. Whether you hit him or not is your business. Don't try to pin this on me. From today onwards, call me Master Ji. You can't call me Ah Cheng."

Lu Man had expected him to get angry from the very beginning when she handed the child over to him, but she still held onto a sliver of hope and made one last test, which could be considered her last test, hoping that he would let her off the hook because of her grandfather's dying wish.

"Ah... Once people find out about this, you know I won't be able to keep my only career. The trending topics haven't been taken down yet, and I've already declined the invitations from several companies to be a dance judge. Please help me one last time. I promise I won't bother you again, okay? Can you help me one last time for Grandpa's sake?"

When Grandpa Lu was mentioned, Ji Hancheng remained silent for a moment. After understanding the situation, his eyes turned icy cold, and he asked sternly, "Have you been spreading rumors with anyone else?"

Lu Man shook her head hastily, "No, absolutely not."

Then Ji Hancheng warned, "Lu Man, Grandpa Lu is not your get-out-of-jail-free card for life. You can't use it an unlimited number of times. Count the number on your fingers carefully. Don't let me find out that you continue to spread rumors. You know the consequences. I'll calculate the interest."

Her voice was flat, but every word reminded and threatened the reason for her safety.

After saying that, he strode out.

Lu Man was left with a blank stare, her expression somewhat complicated. She gave a self-deprecating laugh.

Seeing Ji Hancheng emerge with a gloomy face, Lu Jinnan quickly followed and tentatively asked again, "If Young Master Ji really isn't your child, should we explain that to your wife?"

He stopped in his tracks. "She knows?" he asked, his eyes narrowed and his brows furrowed.

Lu Jinnan recalled that he had never met his sister-in-law, so he should not know her. He then said with certainty, "I don't know."

A few seconds later, the arrogant man came online and said, "She's already divorced, what's the point of explaining? Why should I explain to her?" This heartless woman, she's divorced and hasn't even sent a single message.

Why should he lower himself to find her?
