At the foot of the mountain, Shu Sheng sees a car hurtling towards him and almost orders people to shoot. When he clearly sees Lang Ruoxian, he who has been anxious for two days finally sets his mind assured.
âYoung Master!â He rushes up and almost gets hit.
The first word said by Lang Ruoxian when he gets off the car is, âSend someone to protect Yan Hua.â
Shu Sheng blinks blankly, and then quickly says, âXiaokai is in G City. He has already sent someone to protect Miss Yan. Young Master... Do you know something?â
âYoung Master has been found!â Xiaokai runs to Yan Huaâs house excitedly, âThey have been already on the plane back.â
Yan Hua is holding a bottle of yogurt for Gungun in her hand and nearly falls it onto the ground with a shake of her hand.
âHoo...â She breathes a sigh of relief. âIt is okay to find him. It is okay to find him.â
âHe has not been injured either, but he is not in good spirits, as if he hasnât eaten for two days...â Xiaokai says, blah, blah⦠Gungun who is watching cartoons looks up.
âWhereâs Uncle?â He suddenly runs to Yan Huaâs side, âMommy, is uncle really gone and he will never come back?â
âI donât want Uncle to leave. You let him come back. Wowâ¦â
âYoung Master didnât leave! Didnât leave!â Although Xiaokai doesnât know why Gungun says so, it is always right to coax him. âHe is on the plane now and will be at home in the evening!â
âReally?â Gungun looks at him with tears in his eyes.
Xiaokai grins, âThatâs true!â
âMommy?â Gungun looks at Yan Hua again.
Yan Hua wipes his little face with a paper towel. âOf course. Why will Uncle Xiaokai lie to you?â
âCan I eat pudding now?â Gungun embarrassedly smiles, without sorrow and anxiety in an instant.
Yan Hua touches his head and says, âGo!â
âDid he know that Deng Jingjing was dead...â
Xiaokai nods. âShu Sheng has told him, as if... Young Master has guessed?â
Yan Hua shows suspicious eyes.
âBecause the first word he said when he saw Shu Sheng was to let us send someone to protect you.â
â... Is it?â Yan Hua smiles and changes the subject. âWould you like to stay for dinner?â
âNo!â Xiaokai says excitedly, âI will meet Young Master at the airport.â
Lang Ruoxian makes a video call to Lang Cha on the plane.
âAre you hiding something from me?â
Lang Ruoxian smiles. âOf course not. Why do you ask that?â
Although the story of his kidnapping was widely circulated, the outside world did not dare to make irresponsible remarks without concrete proof. But... He is afraid that Lang Cha still has known it. He just doesnât know whether Lang Cha also knows something else...
âWhat happened to you in Eastern Europe?â Lang Cha looks at him with bright piercing eyes.
Lang Ruoxian says with a particularly calm expression. âPeople outside talked nonsense. Li Yi and I got separated, and my mobile phone didnât have a signal. So they couldnât find me for a while.â
âDeng Jingjing was dead.â Lang Cha pauses over there for a few seconds and suddenly says, âShe secretly ran back to G City and was found to commit suicide by jumping off a building in the hotel.â
âMy assistant has told me.â Lang Ruoxian frowns. âGrandpa, do you know why she suddenly committed suicide?â
Lang Cha answers grumpily, âHow do I know? If it werenât for letting her to take care of your father for a lifetime, I would have killed her. It was also my negligence for I recently didnât order to keep an eye on her. I didnât expect...â
âWait till I get back.â Lang Ruoxian looks somewhat serious. âA person suddenly committed suicide, and ran to a place where there was a few hundred kilometers away to commit suicide...â
âDo you also think there is a problem?â The expression in Lang Chaâs eyes changes a bit. âOK, Iâll wait till you come back.â
When he hangs up, Shu Sheng lowers his voice, âYoung Master, do you think Old Master has known something?â
âHe suspects that Deng Jingjingâs death is not suicide.â Lang Ruoxian rubs his eyebrows. âWe donât have to worry about this. Lang Li is more reluctant than us to let Lang Cha find some evidence.â
âLang Li has suspected you.â Shu Sheng makes a gesture, âWould you like to take the initiative to gain the upper hand?â
Lang Ruoxian closes his eyes and thinks for a moment. âWait a minute. Lang Li just wants to know if I am his own son. He will look for new evidence after a wild goose chase this time, and he will not dare to act rashly until then.â
âIn case he finds evidence...â
âGo back and get someone to watch him.â Lang Ruoxian puts on a mocking smile. âHe is more scared than me of revealing what happened in those days. Even if he finds out anything, he will not dare to make it public.â
But... He thought that Lang Li was going to die like this, but he didnât expect that Lang Li could turn the tables. Since it is so... Lang Ruoxian snorts, âLet him get poisoned again.â
âYoung Master.â Lang Ruoxian just wants to sleep for a while. After all, he stays up for two days and nights, and he has already been exhausted.
But Shu Sheng hands over the phone again. âLang Hongyueâs on the phone.â
Lang Hongyueâs smile freezes in her face. What did Lang Ruoxian say when he hung up?
âTake good care of the fetus. Donât worry about others. If you really have time, you should worry more about yourself.â
What did he mean? Lang Hongyue throws away her mobile phone. She has been putting all her thoughts on this unborn child in recent months. Otherwise, how canât she know the news until now?
âItâs really... Who kidnapped him and how could he be saved so easily?â Lang Hongyue grits her teeth and curses. Then she touches her abdomen with a sigh. Her voice becomes very soft.
âGood boy! Mom said nothing just now, and you didnât hear anything.â
If you look carefully, her lower abdomen has slightly bulged, and the fetus has passed the first three months safely. She just finished the prenatal examination yesterday and the fetus was well developed. Besides... The doctor said it might be a boy, but it has not been sure yet.
âWhatâs up?â As soon as Tian Bocheng enters the house, he sees Lang Hongyueâs mobile phone lying on the ground. âWhatâs bothering you again?â
He hasnât seen Lang Hongyue lose her temper for a long time recently, for the fetus in her abdomen.
âHave you known that Lang Ruoxian was kidnapped in Eastern Europe?â Lang Hongyue asks grumpily.
âAh?â Tian Bocheng asks in surprise, âKidnapped? When? Was there a ransom required?â
âHe has been rescued.â Lang Hongyue curls her lips. âI have taken care of the fetus at home and you are not worried about anything. We donât even know such important news.â
Tian Bocheng loosens his tie. âWell, what does that have to do with us? Even if he has had an accident, Old Master will not give you the company.â
âThatâs not for certain!â Lang Hongyue sneers. âNow my eldest brother is half dead. If anything happens to him, who else can he give the company to except me?â
âI think he will hire a professional manager and then give Gungun the company when Gungun grows up.â Tian Bocheng takes a sip of tea. âYou should know your father better than I do. He will not let his daughter inherit Lang Consortium.â
Lang Hongyue touches her abdomen again and says firmly, âSo I will definitely have a son and then I can inherit the company.â
Her son will take her surname Lang. Then he will be a member of Lang Family. Then Lang Cha has no reason not to give her the company.
âOkay, okay!â Tian Bocheng sees the house maid set up the dinner and helps Lang Hongyue stand up. âNow that Lang Ruoxian has returned safely, you donât have to think so much. You should continue to take good care of the fetus and wait until next month to make sure whether or not it is a son...â
Tian Bocheng has been accompanying Lang Hongyue for a walk at the door after dinner recently. Today is not an exception. But his phone rings when he is about to go outside. Tian Bochengâs eyes flash when he sees the caller ID.
âHello!â He answers the phone in front of Lang Hongyue, âWhat? Is there a problem with the design sketch the customer wants tomorrow? Whatâs the matter? Hasnât it already been handed in? Are your group of people useless?â
Lang Hongyue sees him be angry and asks what happens with her eyes.
âAll right, all right, Iâll go now. Wait until I see the customer.â He hangs up the phone. âThey lost the project plan the client wants to see tomorrow, and they called the client to explain but the client was very unhappy.â
âThen you should go there in person, shouldnât you?â Lang Hongyue says, âLet the client give you two more days, and the one who made the trouble must be responsible afterwards.â
Tian Bocheng puts on his coat and says, âThatâs what I meant. Then you wonât go out alone. Walk around in the house and go to bed early. Donât wait for me.â
âI know. If you come back too late, then you just sleep in the guest room. Donât wake me up!â
Tian Bochengâs car passes through half the city, and an hour later it enters a nice neighborhood. The elevator stops on the 18th floor and he takes out the key to open the door. Footsteps come from the door, and a woman quickly opens the door.
âWhy are you so slow! I have spit out bile when waiting for your coming! â The woman is very young, in her 20s, looking very beautiful. Her face is of effeminacy, particularly easy to make men take pity on her.
Tian Bocheng kisses the woman and hugs her to enter the door. âI come as soon as I receive your call, and you still blame me!â
âHum! Your wife is pregnant, but I also have one fetus in my abdomen!â The woman feels wronged and says, âTell me, how long ago did you spend the night with me?â
She says with tears coming down. She pushes Tian Bocheng aside to sit on the sofa crying.
âOh my dear, donât cry. What if your crying does harm to my son?â Tian Bocheng hurriedly coaxes her and secretly takes out a jewelry box from his bag. âLook, this is the bracelet which you liked when seeing it in the magazine. If I donât think of you, I canât book it earlier!â
The woman turns tears into smiles and rushes into his arms. She takes out the bracelet and wears it. âThen you canât leave tonight. You should stay with me!â Seeing Tian Bocheng hesitating, the womanâs hand touches his crotch.
âThe doctor says that we can make love when the fetus is older than three months. I can serve you today!â
Tian Bochengâs body responds in an instant. He reaches into the womanâs silk nightgown. âLittle baby, you can satisfy my sex desire...â
Fei Shan is sitting in Yan Huaâs living room. He asks Yan Hua when he sees her come down from the upstairs, âHas Gungun fallen asleep?â
âYes. You finished work early today.â Yan Hua pours him a cup of coffee. âHow did they let you go?â
âI said I was tired because of the trip, and I wanted to go to bed early today. They will not come tomorrow morning either. I let them go directly to my company.â Fei Shan looks at her. âAre you okay? My brother says Lang Ruoxian has already come back.â
âWell, he probably has come here.â Yan Hua looks at her watch.
As soon as Fei Shan is about to say something, there is a noise at the door. Yan Hua stands up suddenly and runs over to open the door without asking who it is.
âLang Ruoxian.â Yan Hua calls.
Lang Ruoxian comes in with a faint smile, but he becomes expressionless when he sees Fei Shan.
