âMengjiao, youâ¦â Xia Zijieâs expression suddenly turned extremely serious. There was disbelief in his seriousness. He pointed at Mengjiaoâs belly and his next words were stuck in his throat. He could not say them!
âZijie, the thing isâ¦â Jian Dan was about to speak up for Mengjiaoâ¦
âPm pregnant!â Mengjiao suddenly said. Even Jian Dan did not expect Mengjiao to say it so directly.
âWhat did you say? Youâ¦â The expression on Xia Zijieâs face turned into anger. He grabbed Mengjiaoâs arm.
âZijie, calm down first. Mengjiao hasnât finished speaking!â Jian Dan stood between Mengjiao and Zijie.
âThis⦠How can I calm down?â
âZijie, Mengjiao is pregnant!â Jian Dan reminded him.
Xia Zijie suppressed his anger and let go of Mengjiaoâs arm.
âXia Mengjiao, youâd better tell me everything. Also, that man who dared to bully my sister⦠Iâll skin him alive.â
He sat on the bench by the stream and placed his hand on his thigh. He glared at Mengjiao angrily.
âOh! Zijie, what do you want to hear?! The truth is already in front of you! A couple who loves each other will do what lovers do when passion strikes. Then, there is the result of it!â
Jian Dan was really afraid that Mengjiao would tell Xia Zijie the truth. If Xia Zijie knew that this child only existed under those circumstances, he would definitely fly off the handle. How could he agree to Mengjiao and Li Jings marriage?
âBesides, Mengjiao is already an adult. This will happen sooner or later! Besides, havenât they already decided to get married?â
âIs that really the case?â Xia Zijie looked at Mengjiao seriously.
Mengjiao went along with Jian Danâs story and noddedâ¦
âLook at you, youâre still in college. Canât you wait until you graduate from college?â
âZijie, 1 donât like what youâre saying! Why canât she get married when sheâs in college? 1 havenât graduated from college yet. Do you mean that 1â¦â
Jian Dan turned the tables on Zijie. After all, in Xia Zijieâs heart, Chu Liyuan was definitely a god-like existence.
âThatâs not what I meant!â
âWhat do you mean then?â
âHow can the average person compare to Mr. Chu?â
âXia Zijie, 1 didnât expect you to be someone who despises the poor and favors the rich.â
âSince when do I despise the poor and favor the rich?â
âThen what did you mean just now?â
âI just donât know if that manâ¦â
âYou havenât even met him yet. You donât even know who he is. Isnât it a little too arbitrary to judge so quickly?â
âAlright, alright. Iâll hold my judgment until 1 see him!â
Seeing that Zijie finally relaxed, Jian Dan heaved a sigh of relief.
When Xia Zijie turned around, Jian Dan made an âOKâ gesture to Mengjiao. A smile finally appeared on Mengjiaoâs face.
Unexpectedly, Zijie suddenly turned around⦠The two of them immediately wiped the smiles off their faces. âWhatâs wrong, Zijie?â
âI just thought about it. Bring me to see him now!â Judging from Zijieâs expression, he should not have noticed the smile between the two of them just now, but why did he suddenlyâ¦
âIsnât this too sudden? Shouldnât you find a time and place to sit down and have a proper talk?â
âNo! I want to ambush him when heâs unprepared. Only then can 1 really see this person clearly. If 1 inform him in advance and he comes to see me after heâs prepared, what can 1 see?â
Zijie, when did your EQ become so high?!
âWhy? Is there a problem? Mengjiao?â
âNo⦠No problem!â
âSince thereâs no problem, letâs go!â
Just as he turned around and was about to leave⦠he suddenly turned back. âGive me your cell phones.â
âWhat?â
âOf course Iâm afraid that youâll leak the information!â
âHow is that possible?â
âIn that case, give them to me!â
The two of them could only reluctantly place their cell phones in Zijieâs hand.
This time, they could not even inform Li Jing!
The three of them rushed to Qin Corporation.
âWhat are you doing here?â Zijie looked at Qin Corporation and asked curiously.
âTo see him!â
âHeâs an employee of Qin Corporation?â
âSort of!â
âZijie, give me my cell phone. Iâll call him and ask him to come out.â
âJust go to the reception and ask for him!â
The three of them approached the reception of Qin Corporation⦠âMay I help you?â
âLooking for someone!â Xia Zijie said directly.
âMay I ask who youâre looking for?â
âLi Jing!â
âDo you have an appointment?â
âCall him and tell him that Xia Mengjiao is looking for him!â Zijie said again.
âPlease wait a moment!â
After the receptionist made a callâ¦
âMr. Li will be right down. Please wait a moment!â
âOkay!â Jian Dan pulled Mengjiao to the couch and sat down.
Mengjiao must not tire herself now!
