286: Chapter 286 Old Husband and Wife 286: Chapter 286 Old Husband and Wife If it weren’t for the chair beside her giving her support, she would have already knelt on the ground due to her weak legs.
She bit her lips tightly, neither admitting nor denying.
Gu Beiyan looked at her coldly, his deep voice suffocating like ice: “Who gave you the courage to target ?”
Every ti he thought of such vulgar photos appearing before Jiang You, he wanted to kick this woman to death!
“It seems you and your mother are really alike, only capable of employing such lowly tricks!”
The man’s sarcastic and rciless words hit her ears directly, making her feel utterly humiliated, her cheeks burning as if she had been harshly slapped.
It was precisely Gu Beiyan’s mockery that impulsively made her ask: “I don’t understand, why is it okay for Jiang You and not for ?
She is just a minor celebrity; both of us are from the entertainnt industry.
She has her resources and achievents only because she sold her looks and clung to Mr.
Gu.”
“Without you capitalists, what could she have achieved?”
Between his brows, Gu Beiyan’s coldness intensified, “Do you think you can even compare to her?
You can’t even match one of her fingers!”
Chen Zhe was also astonished by Fang Huaying’s self-confidence, which seed boundlessly inflated.
Not to ntion her background, as fate would have it, comparisons are futile.
Just considering her character and actions, Fang Huaying’s integrity is indescribably rotten, a world apart from Miss Jiang, with a gap as vast as heaven and earth.
Moreover, she chose this path herself, no one else is to bla.
Gu Beiyan leaned back lazily in his chair, with one hand stretched out on the table, his slender, attractive fingers rhythmically tapping.
He said nonchalantly and in a scattered tone: “It seems the last trending topic didn’t teach you a lesson!”
The last trending topic?
Fang Huaying shuddered as she heard those words.
A possibility flashed through her mind, “Was it you?”
Gu Beiyan didn’t respond but curled his thin lips, carrying a mix of slight chilliness and mockery, which made one’s scalp tingle.
Even without speaking, his intention was clear.
Her mind exploded with a bang, her entire body sowhat buzzing, eyes slightly blurred…
No wonder she couldn’t find any trace when she had soone investigate.
Her complexion was ashen, devoid of any color.
“Why?
Why do you have to treat like this?” Fang Huaying gritted her teeth and demanded, “It was my mom who ruined your family, it has nothing to do with .
If you want revenge, it should not be on but on that woman!”
Faced with her accusation, Gu Beiyan remained unfazed, his expression still indifferent.
Chen Zhe was shocked again by her selfishness; she referred to her own mother as “that woman,” clearly trying to distance herself.
He had checked her information before; if he rembered correctly, Pan Lian was quite good to this daughter, cultivated her ticulously, and fulfilled all her requests, but in the end, she still turned out useless.
But just from the looks of it, Fang Huaying seed to hate Pan Lian.
Could there be sothing he hadn’t uncovered?
After a while, Gu Beiyan’s deep, cold voice filled the conference room: “Pan Lian does not have the capability to make go to such lengths for revenge.
You should not have laid hands on soone you shouldn’t have!”
Touched soone she shouldn’t have?
Fang Huaying suddenly thought of Jiang You; was it because of the ti she anonymously leaked information to the press?
No wonder that day she waited in vain for that trending search, only to find her own scandal exposed.
She had suspected it then, but later when she had soone investigate, they couldn’t find anything linking it to Gu Beiyan.
Suddenly, she felt that the man before her was a bit terrifying, and it instilled a sense of fear in her.
Finally, Gu Beiyan said to Chen Zhe, “Since Miss Fang enjoys taking these photos so much, let her take as many as she wants!”
Chen Zhe nodded in understanding, “Yes, Mr.
Gu.”
Upon hearing this, Fang Huaying was completely stunned.
What did he an by that?
Then, Chen Zhe called over two bodyguards.
“Take her down,” Chen Zhe motioned towards Fang Huaying by tilting his chin.
Fang Huaying saw the two burly bodyguards approaching her, and she panicked instantly, “Don’t co over!”
The two bodyguards walked over expressionlessly, took her by the arms, one on each side, and pulled her away.
“No, Mr.
Gu, you can’t treat like this, this has nothing to do with !”
“…”
“Mr.
Gu, are you really going to do this?” Chen Zhe looked at Gu Beiyan and confird once again.
Gu Beiyan narrowed his eyes and glanced at him, “Do I look like I’m joking?”
Chen Zhe pursed his lips, worried that the incident with Fang Huaying would spoil Mr.
Gu’s plans.
However, his concerns seed redundant.
“Okay, I understand, I’ll make the arrangents now.”
Chen Zhe also admired Fang Huaying; of all people to provoke, she had to go and provoke a powerhouse in Yue City, influential and rich, the crè de la crè.
Even if Mr.
Gu didn’t take action, President Jiang would have, and the outco would be the sa: a dead end!
…
In the afternoon.
At City First Hospital, Su He was accompanying Jing Xuan for a prenatal check-up.
Originally, Lu Zhiyang wanted to co along, but Jing Xuan didn’t need him by any ans.
“Baobao, how long are you staying this ti?”
“One month.
There’s a research project that needs to be started here, and I need to find investors for the project.”
“Do we still need to look for a contractor daddy?” Jing Xuan raised an eyebrow, “Isn’t your husband already perfect for that?
No one in Yue City is richer than him, and it wouldn’t even take much effort, just a little coquetry in bed at night, and the contract will surely appear before you the next day.”
Su He: “…”
“How far have you and Lu Zhiyang gotten?” Su He changed the subject.
She hadn’t asked about her and Lu Zhiyang’s situation lately, and Jing Xuan hadn’t brought it up either.
“I see you two getting along like an old married couple; you surely don’t have thoughts of divorce anymore, right?”
Jing Xuan imdiately retorted, “Who’s acting like an old married couple with him?
He’s like a sticky piece of candy attached to , I can’t shake him off no matter how hard I try!”
Su He, hearing this, smiled and said nothing.
Clearly, her attitude towards Lu Zhiyang had changed from before, which was evident from the tone of her voice.
She was just unable to sort out her feelings for a mont.
“Besides, with my mom backing him, I can’t do much but put up with it for now,” Jing Xuan said, “Once I give birth to the baby, I’ll settle the score with him slowly.
Carrying this little one now, I don’t have the energy to deal with all these ssy issues.”
Su He smiled, seeing her so eager to explain, she didn’t ask further.
So things are clearer to an onlooker than to those involved, when the ti cos she would understand as well.
“By the way, has his mother stopped bothering you?” Su He asked.
Jing Xuan shook her head, “Ever since that incident at the mall at the beginning of the year, his mother hasn’t appeared again.”
Regarding this matter, Jing Xuan was quite satisfied with Lu Zhiyang’s actions, as she certainly didn’t want to bother dealing with Zhang Lanying.
She was not the sa as before; she couldn’t afford to get too agitated now.
She and Zhang Lanying were like water and fire, completely incompatible.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship has always been subtle, but in her case, it was just like a battlefield, erupting into fights at the re sight of each other, nothing pleasant to see!
But she didn’t care, she wouldn’t yield to others because of soone.
After all, it’s not her she has to live with!
Upon hearing this, Su He felt relieved, since Mrs.
Lu and Xiaxia really didn’t get along, as if they were enemies in a past life.
But Xiaxia acting this way also stemd from Mrs.
Lu’s own doings, if it weren’t for her own behavior, none of these troubles would have arisen.
Jing Xuan recalled what Lu Zhiyang had ntioned to her, “I heard from Lu Zhiyang that they made a bet during a gathering a few nights ago.”
“What bet?” Su He hadn’t heard Jiang Yan ntion it.
“Those guys actually bet whether I am carrying a boy or a girl, and your husband even wagered ten million,” Jing Xuan said.
Su He: “…”
Is that not tedious?
Are they finding themselves with too much money?
“Apart from Xiao Si betting that I’ll have a daughter, the rest bet on a son.”
Jing Xuan touched her bulging belly, looking down, “Baobao, what do you think I am carrying, a boy or a girl?
They say sour cravings for boys and spicy for girls, but I eat both.”
“It should be possible to find out whether it’s a boy or a girl now, right?” She turned her head to look at Su He.
Su He smiled faintly, “Let nature take its course; whether it’s a boy or a girl, don’t you like them both?”
Jing Xuan: “True, but I just want to know who wins and who loses, it’s not a small amount of money, although it truly is pocket change to them.”
Su He: “Gender determination is banned in our country, so the doctors won’t tell you the result.
Who wins or loses will be revealed the day you give birth, it’s nice to leave a little suspense, right?”
“Baobao, you really know how to comfort people.”
“Hehe, you flatter .”
Just then, it was her turn to be called.
“All right, it’s your turn, let’s go, I’ll accompany you inside.” Su He helped her stand up.
After she completed various tests, more than two hours had passed.
anwhile, the results were all out.
“All the test results are normal, the baby is healthy inside your belly, don’t worry too much,” said the obstetrician director while reading the results displayed on the computer to Jing Xuan.
“You have been in very good condition, just maintain a positive mood, eat well, drink well, and sleep well.”
Ever since Jing Xuan got pregnant, she had been seeing this doctor, who was also very familiar with her condition, plus Jing Xuan was recomnded by Su He.
“That’s good, I’ll rember that, thank you, Director Li.” Hearing that her baby was very healthy brought her imnse joy.
After all, nothing made her happier than the health of her little one.
After leaving the hospital, the two saw Lu Zhiyang standing at the hospital entrance.
“He’s quite punctual.” Su He smiled and said, “Since soone is here to pick you up, I won’t compete for the role of your guardian.
I just so happen to pick up Xixi from kindergarten, I promised him this morning.”
Jing Xuan: “…we haven’t even had a al together yet.”
Su He: “There’s plenty of ti for that, I see your child’s father is already eager to take you back.”
“…”
When Su He arrived at the kindergarten, it was already past five, and most of the students had already left.
Su Yimo was sitting quietly on a small chair at the entrance waiting.
As Su He approached, she noticed a blood stop patch on his forehead.
Her eyebrows furrowed, he was fine this morning when he left, what happened now?
And this ti the teacher didn’t call or ssage her to inform her.
“Mommy, you’re here.”
“What happened to your forehead?” Su He squatted down, her fingers gently touching it.
Su Yimo raised his small hand to touch it, grinning, “Oh, this, I accidentally bumped it.
Mommy, don’t worry, it’s already fine, it’s just a very small wound.
Teacher Yang has already treated it, and Baobao didn’t cry either.”
At this mont, Yang Li walked over, “Yimo’s mom, sorry, I didn’t inform you in ti about Yimo getting hurt today, he was pushed by a child during nap ti today, and that’s how he bumped his forehead.”
Su He glanced at the little guy in front of her, who just told her that he accidentally bumped himself, but now it turned out to be another child who pushed him?
Moreover, Yang Li didn’t say the word “accidentally,” indicating it was intentional.
Su Yimo knew he had just told a small lie, hanging his little head low.
“Fortunately, it was not severe, but it was a scratch, and the school doctor has already treated it.”
Su He stood up, her tone gentle, “No worries.
Teacher Yang, may I ask, which child pushed him?”
“Mommy~” Su Yimo held Su He’s hand, looking up with his head, uttering with a milky voice, “Let’s go ho, Baobao is hungry.”
This ti, Su He did not indulge him.
Yang Li glanced at him before continuing, “It was Ji Mingxuan.”
Su He recalled for a mont before rembering the na, Luo Yi’s son.
After the Ji Family had hit the little guy with a slap, she had lawyer Mr.
Wan sue Old Madam Ji, who later ca to apologize.
The Ji Family faced suppression back then, and she hadn’t followed up on the Ji Family matters.
She thought the Ji Family would have moved the child to another school, but he was still there.
“Alright, I know, thank you, Teacher Yang.” Su He didn’t say much and then took the little one away.
On their way back to Moon Gift Villa, Su Baobao sat in the back seat’s safety chair, occasionally sticking out his head to look at Su He, who was driving.
He pursed his little lips, wanting to say sothing yet hesitating.
Su He glanced at the rear-view mirror, seeing his conflicted expression, curved her lips, “What’s wrong?
Is there sothing you can’t tell Mommy?”
The little guy bit his lips, his juvenile voice resonated, “Mommy, I’m sorry, I didn’t an to lie.”
Su He: “Hmm, Mommy knows you didn’t an it, would you like to tell Mommy why?”
“He said he has no more mom and dad because of mommy and daddy, and that’s why he lost his mom and dad.
He asked to give his mom and dad back to him, so he got upset and pushed …”
Su He listened to the little guy’s words, her eyebrows subconsciously frowned.
How would a child know about these adult matters unless soone had spoken in front of the child?
Besides, what does the issue between the Ji Family couple have to do with her and Jiang Yan?
They brought it upon themselves!
