Hiding her pregnant belly! The wicked ex-wife of the true young master has awakened.

Jinzhi slowly applied whitening essence to her arms and legs. "What nonsense are you talking about? Why would I avoid you if I have nothing better to do? I thought you were going back to Yuncui Mountain tonight too."

"Yuncui Mountain is also my home. I haven't seen my parents in a long time, so I came back to visit."

The more natural and relaxed her tone, the heavier Ye Yu's heart became, yet his voice remained gentle:

"Jinzhi, we're married now, husband and wife. There shouldn't be any secrets between husband and wife. You can tell me anything you're unhappy about or anything that's bothering you."

Jinzhi had a face mask on, and when she spoke, her voice was muffled and buzzing. She didn't dare to move her cheeks too much when she spoke.

"No, I've had a very happy and comfortable time these past two days."

Ye Yu hated how he felt.

"Yes, I feel very happy and comfortable with Zhou Yinche, but I don't even want to talk when I'm with him."

Jinzhi paused for a moment while pressing her face, her voice devoid of emotion, "You're spying on me?"

"Yes, I did go out with Zhou Yinmo and Zhou Yinche today. I didn't tell you because you were busy with work, I didn't want to bother you. It's normal to go out with friends. You can also go out with friends when you're not busy with work."

"Your affairs have never been a distraction for me. When I'm not busy with work, my heart is always with you, no matter how busy I am. I have no time to go out and have fun, and I don't have as many close friends as you do."

A close friend?

Jinzhi felt there was a barb in his words.

"If you don't have close friends, you should look for the problem within yourself. It has nothing to do with me. I need to take care of my skin and get my beauty sleep. I'm hanging up now. You should get some rest too."

Before Ye Yu could speak, Jin Zhi hung up the phone.

Ye Yu became even more certain that Jin Zhi was prejudiced against him. He picked up the little blue baby from the bed, grabbed his car keys, and went out to continue calling her.

I called twice but no one answered.

He lowered his voice to send voice messages.

"Jinzhi, don't try to confuse us. The main point of our discussion is why you're avoiding me, and what I did to upset you."

"You went to bed early the other night, which isn't like you. I can feel you're avoiding me. Why? If you don't tell me, we'll see."

Yang Jiamei yawned as she went out. "Where are you going so late at night? Zhizhi is staying at the Jin family's."

Ye Yu didn't turn his head back.

"I'm going to the Jin family's place too, I won't be back tonight."

Yang Jiamei cursed, "You ungrateful little devil!"

Ye Yu drove at high speed all the way to Yuncui Mountain, his mind racing as he reviewed the events of the past few days.

Ye Yu wasn't actually exceptionally intelligent; his strength lay in his ability to think critically and reflect on his experiences.

No matter how difficult the problem, he can always find a breakthrough.

Upon entering the house, I encountered Wen Manchun, who had come out to pour water. I called out "Mom" and headed towards the elevator.

Wen Manchun noticed that his aura was off and said, "Talk things out calmly. Zhizhi responds better to gentle persuasion than force."

Ye Yu hummed in agreement, closed the elevator door, went straight to the third floor, quickly walked towards the master bedroom, and pushed the door open.

Inside the room, Jinzhi was changing into her pajamas with her back to the door.

She had taken off her beige pajamas halfway, revealing her fair back and beautifully shaped neck.

Apart from a slightly protruding lower abdomen, her limbs remained slender.

She felt uncomfortable wearing her pajamas and wanted to change into a nightgown. It was late at night, and no one was coming up from the third floor, so she didn't lock the door.

Hearing the noise at the door, he turned around and glanced back.

Ye Yu was carrying her Abebe in her hand.

She wasn't uncomfortable at all; with her back to him, she took off her pajamas and quickly changed into a new nightgown.

She turned and walked towards him.

Take the Abebe from his hand.

Having grabbed her, Ye Yu didn't let go, his deep gaze fixed on her.

Jinzhi said good-naturedly, "I was in such a hurry today that I forgot to bring it. Thank you for bringing it for me. Since you're here, go wash up and go to bed early. Tomorrow we still need to help Mother Yang think of what kind of business to start with for the new shop."

She tugged at it, but still couldn't budge it.

Ye Yu gripped the rabbit's neck, the veins on the back of his fair hand bulging clearly, the veins standing out even more against his cool-toned skin.

"Let's deal with these matters first, rather than worrying about tomorrow."

"What is it?"

Jinzhi said in a calm tone, "Ye Yu, what's going on between us? If there is, it's because you let go. This is my teddy rabbit."

Ye Yu bent his knees and sat on a chair to the side. He grabbed the rabbit's wrist and pulled Jinzhi into his arms as well.

He pressed her down onto his lap, gripping her waist to prevent her from moving.

He patiently asked again, "Jinzhi, why have you been avoiding me these past two days?"

Feeling annoyed by his dark gaze and having his hand on her waist, Jinzhi tugged at her rabbit.

"I said no, no, you're so annoying! Is it possible that you're too clingy? Don't you ever feel tired after get off work? Can't you rest by yourself?"

"I'm just living a normal life. Who do you think you are? How much face do you have that I should avoid you?"

"Even married couples need private space, don't you understand?!"

She was getting a little emotional, and was furious. "Give it back! This is my little blue one. If you like it, buy yourself one. If you don't give it back, I'm going to call for my mom!"

She kept talking.

Ye Yu stared at her face, watching her vividly accuse him, not missing the impatience in her eyes.

With a slight upward lift of the brow bone and a slight upward flick at the corner of the narrow eye, the aura becomes relaxed.

Suddenly, a sentence came out.

"Jinzhi, are you jealous?"

Jinzhi's eyes widened, and she stomped her slippered foot hard on his leather shoe. Taking advantage of his momentary lapse in concentration, she used all her strength to snatch back her little blue shoe, pounded it against his chest a few times, and then quickly stood up while holding it in her arms.

"Are you talking in your sleep because you're too tired from work? Am I just being jealous for no reason? Jealous of whom? Your parents' or your friends'?"

Ye Yu frowned slightly.

"Don't swear."

He reached out to take her hand, but Jinzhi dodged it.

He grabbed the hem of her skirt.

Jinzhi patted his hand but didn't let go.

"Are you jealous of me, Jinzhi? Did you see... at school that day?"

Jinzhi interrupted him with a cold laugh, "Jealous of you? Ye Yu, don't be ridiculous. I don't even like you, why would I be jealous of you?"

Ye Yu's gentle expression faded slightly, and the corners of his eyes lowered slightly.

"Jinzhi, I know you don't need to keep reminding me that we have a child, and that it's enough that I love you."

Do you like her?

Looking at his pretentious face, Jinzhi felt he was increasingly hypocritical. She was either jealous or just thought he was hypocritical, saying one thing and doing another.

The better he treated her, the more she felt he was hypocritical.

She was too lazy to pretend anymore and grabbed the back of his hand.

Ye Yu wasn't without pain; when she grabbed his hand with her manicured nails, red marks quickly appeared on the back of his hand, but he didn't let go.

Jinzhi rolled her eyes and said helplessly, "Ye Yu, I'll just tell you the truth, and let's talk about our future, so you won't use the excuse of 'liking' to disgust people anymore."

Disgusting person?

Ye Yu's face tightened, and before he could question her, he heard her say, "Before the marriage, you said you married me because of the child. The child was conceived when I was infatuated. It's my fault."

"But they are innocent, and we need to register their household registration. If you have any other intentions outside, we will get a divorce after the child is born and the household registration is completed. You can have all the children if you don't want them."

"We're all decent people, there's no need to hide things. Whoever meets someone they like should say it openly. I'm not a mean or unreasonable person. As long as you don't cheat on me, I won't make you leave with nothing."

"You've been wronged by our identities, so the assets will be split 50/50..."

Ye Yu, unable to bear it any longer, interrupted her.

"Jinzhi, are you delirious from a fever? Do you think I'm using the guise of 'liking' to disgust people? We've only been married a short time, and you're already thinking about divorce, dividing the kids, and splitting the assets?"

"You're really something, thinking so far ahead and so thoughtfully."

"But let me fucking tell you, I have no intention of having affairs, I haven't cheated, and there's absolutely no way I'm getting a divorce. Don't even think about it!"
