"You..."
Jiang Nanfang was so smart and capable that Zhou Jinxiu, who considered himself a master of romance, was afraid he couldn't handle her.
Who on earth could have made her pregnant?
He was extremely curious.
"What about that man? Why didn't you have him come with you? After sleeping with you, he just ran off. Such trash, and you're just going to let him go?"
Jiang Nanfang didn't want to mention Zhan Beijue, so she shrugged.
"I don't plan to let him know. I don't plan for him to take responsibility either. It was an impulsive thing, mutually consensual. It would be meaningless to pester him."
If all the women in the world had such understanding, men would be very happy.
Zhou Jinxiu felt a pang of jealousy.
"Can you tell me who he is? Someone who could make someone like you pregnant..."
"I don't want to say. Just consider it respecting me. It was just a mistake, can we not ask about it anymore?"
Since she had said this much, there was no point in asking further. Zhou Jinxiu could only nod.
"Alright, I'll help you with this. But let's agree beforehand, if I need your help with something in the future, you have to go through fire and water for me too."
Jiang Nanfang disliked owing favors, so she naturally agreed.
After finishing their coffee, the two went to the hospital again.
The doctor who received her was the same one from before.
Seeing that she had brought her boyfriend back so quickly, and that her boyfriend was quite handsome, the doctor said.
"You two are so young and well-matched. Since you're having a child, why don't you consider getting married?"
"The surgery is very taxing on the body. Can't the boyfriend take some responsibility?"
Zhou Jinxiu didn't want to be mistaken for a scumbag, so he quickly explained.
"I do want to marry her, and I want the child too. It's just that the situation is special. She was taking medication and drinking. You wouldn't dare to advise her to keep it, would you?"
The doctor respected their wishes.
"Then let's do a blood test. If everything is fine, come back next Monday at nine in the morning for the surgery."
"You must not eat or drink for eight hours before the surgery. That's all. You can go back now."
As they left the consultation room, Jiang Nanfang thanked Zhou Jinxiu. "I'll treat you to lunch."
Zhou Jinxiu was more than happy to accept. Jiang Nanfang finally lifted a heavy burden from her heart, and the two walked out in good spirits.
In the courtyard, Zhan Beijue, who was sitting in his car, happened to see the two of them coming out, talking and laughing side by side.
Ah Zhong parked the car and turned back to ask him.
"Mr. Zhan, do you still want to go down?"
"Get me a copy of Jiang Nanfang's medical records."
Soon, Ah Zhong obtained Jiang Nanfang's medical records.
This woman was indeed pregnant.
But whose child was it?
He had been very confident before, always thinking it was his.
But now, it seemed he had been overthinking.
After such a thing happened, the first person she told was not him, but Zhou Jinxiu.
They came together for prenatal check-ups, talking and laughing.
One day, I, Zhan Beijue, will also become a clown!
On the road, the atmosphere in the car was heavy.
Ah Zhong drove carefully, while Zhan Beijue sat in the back, lost in thought with a grim expression.
After driving for an unknown amount of time, he suddenly instructed.
"Call Jiang Nanfang and ask her where she is now and who she is with. I have some work matters to ask her about."
Ah Zhong knew what he really meant, but he pretended to be oblivious. "Okay."
Jiang Nanfang was having lunch with Zhou Jinxiu when her phone rang.
She took it out and saw it was Ah Zhong.
Not knowing what he wanted, Jiang Nanfang answered.
Ah Zhong asked her, "Engineer Jiang, where are you now?"
"I'm not at the company today, I'm out having lunch for something. What's wrong?"
"Mr. Zhan said he has some work matters to ask you about. Do you have time now?"
Hadn't the new product already been successfully put into production?
With so many orders secured, the rest had been handed over to the technical department. She had completed her mission. What couldn't be asked of Deputy General Manager Gao, but had to be asked of her?
Thinking about the thing in her belly, Jiang Nanfang became angry.
"My work is done, there's nothing more to say. If there are any problems, let him ask Deputy General Manager Gao. I don't have time, don't bother me."
The phone was connected to Bluetooth, and the car's stereo was crystal clear. Zhan Beijue heard Jiang Nanfang's words perfectly through the speakers.
That damned woman, she's become even more arrogant now that she has a backer.
Look at her attitude towards me!
Does she think Zhou Jinxiu is some great figure? Is she secure just by following him?
Doesn't she take me, Zhan Beijue, seriously? She's asking for death!
"Ah Zhong, you get out first. Take a taxi back yourself. I'll drive."
He kicked Ah Zhong out of the car and drove furiously to Jiang Nanfang's apartment complex.
Jiang Nanfang finished her meal and chatted with Zhou Jinxiu for a while longer.
The nausea returned, making her feel uncomfortable, so she hurried home.
She got out of the elevator, took her keys out of her bag, and walked to the door. Just as she was about to insert the key into the lock, she looked up.
The door wasn't locked.
There was a small gap at the door, and smoke was drifting out from inside. It seemed like someone was inside.
Jiang Nanfang's first thought was that a thief had broken into her house.
Not only had a thief broken in, but this thief was still inside and hadn't left.
In broad daylight, someone dared to break into my house to steal? They're tired of living!
Jiang Nanfang kicked the door open with a bang, grabbed a slipper from the shoe cabinet by the door, and rushed into the house.
"Who's in there? Come out!"
On the sofa, Zhan Beijue held half a cigarette, and his gloomy head slowly turned.
"Jiang Nanfang, you've made me wait."
It was him!
Why was he at her house in broad daylight instead of working at the company?
Jiang Nanfang was annoyed and threw off her shoes onto the floor.
"In broad daylight, not working at the company, coming to someone's house without permission to sit around and smoke, what's gotten into you?"
Didn't she get pregnant? Why was her tone still so aggressive? Was she not afraid of affecting the future generation of the Zhou family?
Zhan Beijue slowly exhaled a mouthful of smoke and extinguished the cigarette butt in a wine glass in front of him.
This showed how long he had been there.
The entire wine glass was filled with his cigarette butts!
"How long have you been here? What are you doing at my house? Couldn't you say whatever you wanted to say on the phone? And why are you smoking so much!"
Jiang Nanfang frowned in disgust and walked past him to open the window.
Zhan Beijue suddenly turned sideways and grabbed her wrist.
"What are you doing? Let go! I need to open the window to let some air in, you're suffocating me."
"Jiang Nanfang, is there something you're not telling me?"
After all, the matter was still unclear, and Zhan Beijue didn't believe he lacked the charm to lose to Zhou Jinxiu.
He wanted to hear the answer from Jiang Nanfang's own mouth.
"What is there that I'm not telling you? Are you suspecting me of holding back technical information?"
"Zhan Beijue, I just secured several hundred million yuan in orders for you. Isn't it a bit too heartless to say something like this?"
Was she deliberately playing dumb to change the subject, or did she genuinely not understand?
Zhan Beijue stood up and, from across the sofa, stared at her coolly.
"You know what I'm talking about. I saw it in the trash. Jiang Nanfang, you're pregnant again?"
Jiang Nanfang's heart skipped a beat.
This crazy lunatic, running into someone else's house to rummage through the trash for no reason?
He found out she was pregnant? What did he want!
"You're crazy! Not working in broad daylight, coming into someone's house to rummage through the trash, are you psychologically disturbed?"
Seeing a flicker of panic in her expression, Zhan Beijue was certain.
"So it's true. You really are pregnant."
