After entering the washroom, Ye Yan Xi's nervous mood finally eased up a bit. The thing she was holding in her hand almost fell to the floor. Luckily, it was still early and there was no one in the washroom.
After opening the box, Ye Yan Xi studied it for a long time before she finished following the instructions on the box.
After waiting for a few more minutes, Ye Yanxi looked at the indication on the pregnancy test stick. There was a line in Area C and T, and a line in Area T.
In that case, Ye Yanxi looked at the description again. Was she not pregnant? She also vaguely remembered that if two bars appeared, it meant that she was pregnant.
After worrying for a whole day and night, she was finally able to let out a sigh of relief.
As long as he was not pregnant, it meant that he was too nervous last night. It meant that he had a bad appetite at that time, which was why such a situation occurred.
After throwing the pregnancy test stick into the trash can, Ye Yan Xi tidied up her clothes and walked out of the bathroom. She was in a completely different mood from when she was in the bathroom, and there was no longer any expression of worry on her face.
After returning to the office, Ye Yanxi began her day's work. Her mood was exceptionally bright, just like the early morning sun.
Not long after she left the bathroom, two more colleagues also went to the bathroom.
One of his colleagues just happened to walk into the room where Ye Yancai had been. When he caught sight of the pregnancy test stick from the corner of his eyes, he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"What's wrong?" The colleague next door immediately asked curiously.
"The trash can threw a pregnancy test."
"Is one of our colleagues pregnant?"
"I'm not sure." The colleague looked at it for a while more before saying, "There should be something wrong with this pregnancy test stick. Normally, the line in Area C of the pregnancy test stick needs to be displayed, but this one doesn't exist. I'm afraid this result is not accurate, so that colleague should not be able to test it out. "
"That's quite tragic. I bought a bad pregnancy test stick, so I can only buy another test."
"Sigh, aren't you just blabbering about having a second child? I'm starting to want one now."
On the office side, Ye Yan Xi still didn't know that there was something wrong with the pregnancy test stick she bought and was glad that she wasn't pregnant. Moreover, her appetite seemed to have returned the next day and she was even hungrier than before.
Thinking of this, Ye Yanxi's mood throughout the entire day was surprisingly good. The colleagues around her even thought that something good had happened to her.
On the other side, the CEO Xiao who was being coldly ignored by Ye Yanxi thought that she had lost her charm and was actually extremely unhappy. It could even be said that she had a violent and erratic temperament, and thus, almost everyone who entered the office walked out with a sullen face.
In the afternoon, Xiao Yu received a call from his mother, Huo Lin.
The phone was just connected, but Huo Lin cut straight to the point. "You should remember that today is the middle of the annual family dinner, right?"
Family banquet?
Time passed so quickly, it was already the middle of the year.
"Yes." Xiao Yu replied.
"You must come back today. You were in Italy a few years ago, so it's fine that you can't come back to attend. But now that you're back, you must come back no matter what. Your father has already gone to fetch your grandfather." Huo Lin ordered.
"I know."
"And your attitude tonight is slightly better." Just as Xiao Yu was about to hang up, Huo Lin repeatedly reminded her, "There are guests here. Be careful. Do you understand?"
Xiao Yu didn't need to think to understand Huo Lin's words. "Mom, today's banquet isn't just a family banquet!"
Huo Lin didn't try to hide it anymore and just said, "You're going to be in third place soon. Someone your age is about to get into primary school. Your dad and I are looking forward to carrying our grandson, but …" You have shown no signs at all these years, let alone a grandson. "
His tone was filled with complaint.
"But, don't you already have a grandson?" Xiao Yu frowned, "If Xiao Shuren heard your words, how would she feel?"
"Bei Ze is from the Chu Clan, not surnamed Xiao!" "No matter what, you have to come back today. He's your grandfather's former comrade. In terms of family background, he's on par with our Xiao family. If possible, you can get married this year!"
After saying that, she hung up the phone without any resistance.
Xiao Yu's eyebrows creased as he looked at the broken phone in his hand.
This was completely an excuse for a family banquet, but in reality, it was meant to be a blind date. However … He already had Ye Yanxi.
Since they wanted to see their daughter-in-law so much, they would bring her home for them to see tonight.
The Xiao family's feast was usually attended by the Xiao family. However, every year, due to problems with the Chu family's business, Xiao Shuren shamelessly brought her family over.
During every family dinner, Xiao Shuren would always praise her husband's ability and use it to get some money out of the old man.
That was also when Xiao Zhenwei held power in the past.
Ever since Xiao Yu had taken over, Xiao Shuren hadn't taken a single cent from the Xiao Group.
Even if Xiao Yu didn't give her money, she still relied on his status as Xiao Yue-jie to rope in a large number of people who wanted to get close to the Xiao family in the upper class.
Xiao Yu's elder sister's title had expanded her business opportunities by quite a bit. As a result, even though Xiao Yu would look down on his every year at the family banquet, she was still unstoppable.
Naturally, there was no lack of Xiao Shuren for this year's family banquet.
This time, she had greeted her family one month ahead of schedule. Furthermore, she had already prepared Old Master Xiao's present early, as well as her dress for the party. All of these had long been reserved and would definitely attract attention at the family banquet.
While Chu Beize was still preparing to leave, Xiao Shuren made a call in advance and greeted, "Beize, don't go to the company this afternoon. We're going to attend the Xiao family's family dinner tonight. Prepare well, understand?"
"Mom, I know."
After a while, Xiao Shuren thought of Chu Beize's wife, He Man and reminded him, "Have Manman prepare well. You just got married not too long ago, so you should show your face. Just let Manman wear that sapphire blue, it suits her skin very well. Just tell her and I won't need to call her. "
"No need." Chu Beize rejected immediately, "I'll go alone."
"How can this be?" Xiao Shuren reprimanded him, "How long have you two been married for and she is a daughter of the He clan. You should at least give her some face by going to the family banquet."
There was impatience in Chu Beize's voice, "She hasn't been feeling well these few days, so she can't participate."
"Why are you so unwell? Did you go to the hospital? "
"It's nothing, I just had a stomachache."
Xiao Shuren sighed in disappointment, "Alright then. Then let her have a good rest at home. You better remember this. When you get to the Xiao family, take it easy. Especially when you see your uncle, take it easy."
Chu Beize felt uncomfortable whenever Xiao Yu was mentioned, "I understand."
"Mm, then you can go and prepare first." Xiao Shuren was about to hang up when she suddenly exclaimed, "Where's my necklace? Why is it gone? I'll go look for it. Let's not talk about it anymore."
After hanging up, Chu Beize's expression immediately turned gloomy.
Suddenly, a loud noise came from the room on the second floor. It sounded like a heavy object had fallen to the ground. He frowned, got up, and walked up the stairs.
There were two bodyguards standing in front of the door on the second floor. When they saw Chu Beize, they respectfully lowered their heads and called out, "Young Master."
Chu Beize's eyes turned cold as he pushed open the door and walked in.
He saw He Man, who was sitting beside the table in the room, lying on the floor in a sorry state. Both of his legs were limply dragging, and he was moving forward little by little, with a wheelchair in front of him.
Glass dregs fell to the ground and water splashed everywhere.
It seemed that she wanted to drink some water, but she couldn't hold the cup properly, so she fell to the ground.
His pajamas were wide and messy, and his hair was disheveled over his shoulders. His face was now even more terrifying, his pale cheeks seemed bloodless, and his eye sockets were sunken with bruises.
Chu Beize looked at her coldly as he slowly moved to the wheelchair and climbed onto it. As long as she sat on the wheelchair, he wouldn't have to crawl so hard.
When she struggled to support the wheelchair and was about to get on, Chu Beize suddenly reached out his hand and pushed the wheelchair away.
He suddenly lost his strength and fell heavily onto the floor again. His head was knocked onto the wheelchair, and a moment later, his forehead swelled up. It seemed he fell with a lot of strength.
The bedroom used to be covered with a carpet, so no matter what, it wouldn't hurt.
However, it was as if Chu Beize had vented his anger and had the carpet retracted. As a result, the floor was made of hard marble and it was so smooth.
Countless times, She Man was forced to slide to the ground. His legs lost their support, and once she lost her wheelchair, she completely lost her freedom. She could only slowly crawl on the ground, and her knees were covered with bruises and bruises.
At this moment, she was tripped by Chu Beize and fell to the ground. She Man raised her head, trembling. Her pale and terrifying face was now even more ferocious, and her eyes were filled with malice and hatred.
"Surnamed Chu, you beast, I curse you to die a horrible death!" His hoarse voice seemed to have drained all of her strength in an instant. He could only gasp weakly and glare at Chu Beize angrily.
