Li family estate.
Li Jianguo hung up the phone with a "pa" sound. He was so angry that his face turned red. On the sofa at the side, Li Xiaoqian was still crying.
"Weeping, crying. You still have the face to cry. Something that does not do anything well but fail."
"Xiaoqian was just desperate, so stop scolding her." Mother Li still protected her daughter.
"You can't even tie a man. Tell me what else you can do." This was the first time that Li Jianguo had received such a vindictive attitude. He had completely lost face, and his Lee family had become the laughingstock of the people in S City.
"It can't all be because of Xiao Qian. From what I see, Ji Weilin isn't a good person either." Mother Li was indignant.
Li Jianguo sighed, took a sip of tea and suppressed his anger, "Don't mention that bastard. Think about it first, daughter. Where did the book go, to actually push Wei Zhanyan down from the stairs. Originally, we were in the right, but now we have to give him an explanation. Now that Ji Weiyang threatened me with the recording, it is simply a lion opening its mouth. "
"I, I was also confused for a moment." Then, when they were tearing each other up at the stairs, she simply could not remember how she managed to push Zhan Yan down. All she could remember was that she fell on the landing with her entire body covered in blood, and at that time she was completely scared silly.
"I'm awake. I get annoyed when I see you. Why aren't you going back to my room?" Li Jianguo chased her away in a bad mood.
After Li Xiaoqian left, Mother Li brewed another cup of tea for her husband, and said gently, "Jianguo, calm down, no matter what, Xiao Qian is still our daughter, you wouldn't really watch her go to jail right?"
Li Jianguo sighed, and continued smoking, "Ji Weiyang is so ruthless. If I were to really let it go, Xiao Qian would never come out of jail again in her next life. But the conditions he put forward are indeed too harsh. "
"For your daughter, you have to help her no matter how hard it is." As Mother Li spoke, she also wiped away her tears.
Li Jianguo pinched the tip of his cigarette. After a moment of hesitation, he picked up the phone, "Hello, old classmate. I'm Jianguo. Yes, I have something that I need your help with …"
The progress of the project seemed to be even more successful than Ji Weiyang had expected. Before the bidding, his manager of the engineering department had already contacted the person in charge of engineering from the government and decided on the project worth one hundred and thirty million.
On the day of the bidding, Ji Weiyang ordered the bid to be won at a price that was 5% higher than the base bid.
This project was the main project of the provincial capital, and started after a month. Ji Weiyang did not personally arrive at the site to start work on the project, but instead found an excuse to fly abroad, and waited for the project to start 10 days later before flying back from abroad.
had been carrying the baby in his stomach for 65 days already, feeling suspicious all day, always worried that the baby in his stomach would have problems. Initially, Lu Ruping brought her to the hospital to check on her, but later, she invited a family doctor to treat her.
After waking up in the morning, Zhan Yan stood in front of the bathroom mirror. She was wearing only her clothes, as she had been doing this everyday recently.
"Yan Yan, haven't you finished washing?" Ji Weiyang pushed the door and entered. Seeing that she was still looking in the mirror, he smiled and wrapped his in a bath towel, then used his hand to stroke her slightly protruding stomach. "Don't be cold, quickly change clothes.
Zhan Yan's appetite had been unstable lately, and she liked to eat congee today. Tomorrow was bread and jam, so she might not be able to eat anything, and when she had something to do, she would think of something weird. One day, she actually wanted to eat youtiao soy milk, something so greasy, but she actually didn't vomit after eating it.
was extremely busy, he had prepared all kinds of meals, both Chinese and Western, just to give Zhan Yan a few more mouthfuls.
"Mom, I have a social meetup tonight, so I probably won't be able to come over. I'll let you and dad take care of her." Ji Weiyang said politely after finishing breakfast.
"Of course I'll take care of my own daughter. You don't need to say that." Lu Ruping's attitude was still neither cold nor hot.
Ji Weiyang laughed but did not say a word, his attitude extremely respectful.
That night, Ji Weiyang did not go to the Wei Family to see Zhan Yan. It was unknown what he was busy with, and he did not appear for a few days straight. Although he did not appear, his things were sent to the Wei Family as if he did not need money. Nourishment products, health products, baby products, pregnant women's supplies were almost piled into a small mountain, and high-end cosmetics were also given to Lu Ruping. As well as the white jade chess pieces that she gave Wei Jingnian, it was also hard to find anything that was worth even a thousand gold.
"Look, your son-in-law is quite considerate." Wei Jingnian played with the white jade chess piece, unwilling to let go.
"A box of white jade chess bought you?" Lu Ruping snorted and turned to Zhan Yan, "Look, in your father's eyes, you are worth only a box of chess pieces."
"What does a woman like you know?"
"You know, I don't understand anything, right?"
Zhan Yan curled up on the sofa and ate the plum blossom. Seeing the old couple bickering, the corners of her lips raised upwards, and the occasional quarrel, the house seemed to be more lively, but there were also people who were angry.
"Baby, look, grandpa and grandma are arguing." Zhan Yan gently caressed her lower abdomen with her hand, and a playful smile appeared on her lips.
On the eighty-fourth day of Zhan Yan's pregnancy, blood was drawn for the first time during the maternity exam.
On this day, Ji Weiyang pushed away all the social work and accompanied Zhan Yan closely.
In the examination room, Zhan Yan took out a total of nine tubs of blood, and at the end of the blood, Third Young Master Ji's face changed.
"Does it hurt? Do you feel dizzy? Why did you draw so much blood for? " After drawing blood, Ji Weiyang helped Zhan Yan to rest in the VIP ward, and brewed a cup of warm brown sugar water for Zhan Yan.
She leaned against the headboard and smiled gently, "This blood test is necessary. Hepatitis B is the fifth, hepatitis C is AIDS. Blood type, calcium, iron, Down's screening, blood sugar, etc. as well as the nutritional status of pregnant women, to see the fetal genetic disease probability. "
"My son inherited fine genes." Ji Weiyang's tone was overbearing, his palm was covering Zhan Yan's protruding abdomen, time passed really quickly, her originally flat abdomen was slowly growing bigger, now the little thing inside had a heartbeat, and was beginning to take shape. It was a real little life.
"Ji Weiyang, you can be a little more conceited." Zhan Yan snorted and rolled her eyes at him.
Ji Weiyang laughed, and gently covered her with a blanket, "Rest for a while, what do you want to eat? I'll get someone to buy it for you. "
Maybe it was because he had drawn too much blood, but Zhan Yan's face was a little pale. She shook her head tiredly and lay down on the bed. "I'm not hungry. Let's talk after I wake up."
Ji Weiyang laughed and covered her with a thin blanket. Just as he sat down beside the bed, his phone suddenly rang.
After Ji Weiyang hung up the phone, he had to leave. Before he left, he gave Zhan Yan a kiss on the corner of his mouth.
He gently pushed open the door of the ward, and outside, Lu Ruping walked in with a box.
"Mom, I have urgent matters to attend to."
"You always have more important things than your wife and children." Lu Ruping said indifferently and walked straight into the sickroom.
Ji Weiyang's speed was extremely fast, and in the end, he stopped in front of a private club. He handed the car keys to the doorman, who drove the car like a garage.
The meeting location was set in the VIP private room on the second floor. He pushed open the door and entered, only to see Tang Feng and another man sitting together on a leather sofa.
"Oh, Director Ji, you came too late. You deserve to be punished." The man joked, his round, chubby face beaming with laughter, his belly bulging like a pregnant woman who had been pregnant for several months.
Ji Weiyang laughed as he raised his wine cup, raising his head to gulp down the last half cup of red wine. "If Weiyang comes late, let's do it first."
"Director Ji is too polite." The man smiled warmly, "Boss Tang has already explained to me that you are accompanying my wife for her labor inspection today. I, Yang, offer my congratulations first."
This CEO Yang from S City was the most powerful company in the bidding for this project. If not for Ji Weiyang's interference, this project would have long been in the pockets of this CEO Yang.
Ji Weiyang laughed and brought up his wife and son. His expression was warm, but he joked, "My wife's health is not too good, after she gets pregnant she's got a bad temper, I've always been bullied at home."
Director Yang also laughed along, "When my wife gave birth, she had a bad temper too. When women are in special times, we men should still tolerate it. After all, it's for the sake of our children. Director Ji is as rich as a nation, so I'm short of a son to inherit my family's property. "
"Director Yang, stop teasing me." Ji Weiyang took off his suit jacket, sat on the leather sofa and personally poured some wine for Director Yang. "According to my age, I have to call you brother. Brother Yang, this glass of Vayan is for you."
"I don't dare to accept it, I don't dare to accept it." Director Yang laughed heartily.
Tang Feng was the most playful, playing very well with Director Yang. Ji Weiyang lazily sat at the side, smiling evilly as he sipped on his wine as if he was watching a show. When they had played enough, they gave Tang Feng a look and prepared to get into the main topic.
Tang Feng understood, he put down his wine cup and waved for the few women to go out. Director Yang was also a man of his word, and was able to guess a few things when he saw this stance. I knew that Director Ji wouldn't just treat me to a drink. "
Wei Yang knows that Brother Yang had recently invested in Linda, and coincidentally, I invested in a new movie. The female lead was the Heavenly Queen, Linda. Ji Weiyang smoked his cigarette gracefully as he spoke at a steady pace.
Director Yang's eyes suddenly lit up, and laughed, "Then I'll be troubling you with this matter."
Director Yang was a lustful person, and everyone in the industry knew that. Recently, he had been closely pursuing Little Heaven and Linda, but the Heavenly Queen was so tall, and he didn't even like this fat middle-aged man, so Linda had thrown him a few times.
But Linda was a signed celebrity at Ji Weiyang's company, if she still wanted to stay in the entertainment circle, she would have to listen to Ji Weiyang's arrangements. In this line of business, no one dared to say that they were clean, and since they had come in, they had to be mentally prepared.
"Brother Ji has given me such a huge favor. If there's anything you need Big Brother to do, just say so." Director Yang was a man of his word, he knew that it was best not to let things stand without merit.
This was exactly what Ji Weiyang was waiting for, "To be honest, I do need Director Yang's help with something related to the project in the western part of the city."
Director Yang pointed at him with a smile, "Didn't Director Ji sign that project already? For that project, my company's people had been busy for half a year, and ended up empty-handed."
Ji Weiyang smiled charmingly, gently waved the goblet in his hand, and casually took a sip of wine, "I think CEO Yang doesn't know, that my company's bidding price is exactly 5% higher than the bottom price."
"Oh?" Director Yang was slightly shocked. Under normal circumstances, a high bid of 5% was impossible to win.
"Bro, aren't you afraid that I'll report you after you tell me all this?" Director Yang joked.
Unexpectedly, Ji Weiyang actually nodded earnestly, "That's right, I wanted Director Yang to report me."
"Oh? You've confused me. " Director Yang frowned, confused.
Ji Weiyang laughed sinisterly, and gracefully put down the goblet in his hand. He did not need to know the reason, he only needed to follow his orders. As for the reason, I can't explain too much at the moment, but for Director Yang, it's beneficial and harmless, at least the construction committee will give you a reasonable explanation. "
"Alright, I'll do as you say." "Yes!" Director Yang agreed readily. After all, this matter would not affect him in the slightest. However, he would do him a favor and … " Then, about Linda, Director Ji still needs to introduce her. "
"Don't worry, Director Yang, Linda will be waiting for you here tomorrow night." Ji Weiyang's smile became deeper. His eyes became bottomless, like a bottomless black hole.
When Ji Weiyang left the upscale club and returned to the Wei Family, the sky had already completely darkened. The one who opened the door for him was Lu Ruping.
"Mom, where's Yan Yan Yan?"
"Didn't you see what time it was? Yan Yan had already gone to bed." Lu Ruping replied with a straight face. She took out a key and passed it to him, "In the future, when you come back tonight, open your own door. Don't always disturb others' rest."
Ji Weiyang pursed his lips and smiled. Even though Lu Ruping had always been bad to him, now that he was handed over the key to the family, he did not treat him as an outsider.
When she pushed open the bedroom door, the light inside the room was dim, and only the bedside had a dim yellow light. Zhan Yan did not sleep, but lay on the bed and read the childcare book.
Ji Weiyang moved closer and stole a kiss on her cheek, but Zhan Yan pushed him away with furrowed brows. "Go take a bath, it smells like alcohol, neither I nor the baby likes it."
"As you wish, old woman." Ji Weiyang laughed as he took off his jacket, threw it on the sofa, and then took off his tie before heading to the bathroom.
The sound of running water could be heard continuously in the bathroom. The faint aroma of the male Body Soaping Dew covered his smell of alcohol. Then, he walked out of the bathroom, a towel wrapped loosely around his waist.
Zhan Yan, who was on the bed, had already fallen asleep. The big blanket covered her petite body, and her little face was buried in a soft pillow.
The corner of Ji Weiyang's mouth lifted slightly, and with a gentle movement, he lifted up the blanket and laid beside Zhan Yan. He put her head in his arms and rubbed his chin against the hair on top of her head. Then, he half-knelt in front of her and rested his head on her stomach, quietly listening to the movements of the baby inside. But the child for the past two months didn't have any movement at all. All he could hear was the sound of Zhan Yan's heartbeat.
"Stop messing around, the baby is already asleep." Zhan Yan's palm gently caressed his head.
Separated by the thin layer of clothing, Ji Weiyang lowered his head and lightly kissed her lower abdomen a few times, "Little thing, do you know how hard it is for your parents to endure? If you dare disobey me in the future, let's see how I'll take care of you."
His childish words made Zhan Yan burst out laughing, "Ji Weiyang, you will teach this baby naughty."
"Don't worry. It's so early in the morning. How could it be so easy to break it?" Ji Weiyang embraced her, found the most comfortable position in his arms, and gently closed his eyes.
That night, Zhan Yan slept soundly in his arms.
And to be able to hug Zhan Yan to sleep, for Ji Weiyang, it was similarly something to be happy about.
In the early hours of the morning, it began to rain outside. The rain fell on the windows, making a slight crackling sound.
Zhan Yan slept lightly, and was easily woken up by the sound of the rain. She rubbed her sleepy eyes, and turned to look out the window.
"Why are you awake?" It's still early, let's sleep for a while. " Ji Weiyang hugged her and muttered.
Zhan Yan blinked her eyes, and then muttered: "It's raining."
"Yes." Ji Weiyang smiled in agreement, his gaze casually sweeping the outside of the window, and sure enough, the weather was not good.
"Viyan, what are you doing today?" Zhan Yan laid her head in his arms, her long eyelashes blinking innocently. Faintly filled with anticipation, she was sticking more and more to him.
Ji Weiyang kissed her forehead and replied gently, "I'll accompany you in the morning. I have a gathering in the afternoon, so I might need to go out."
"Will you be back tonight?" Zhan Yan asked again.
"Of course." Ji Weiyang lovingly pinched her cheek.
"Mom turned the next room into a baby's room and told me to stay here for a month. She said that this room is always reserved for the baby, and when we return home, the baby will have his own room." Zhan Yan said indifferently, she rarely talked to him like this. Because Ji Weiyang was really too busy, he was an almost perfect man, the only thing he lacked was time.
"Alright, you and mom can decide on this kind of thing." Ji Weiyang also thought that it would be better for Zhan Yan to stay at home and sit still. After all, Lu Ruping had taken good care of her.
"Where did we live after the baby was born?" Zhan Yan asked again. It seemed that this rainy weather was very suitable for them to chat at home.
"Where do you like to live? The apartment on Kingview Road, or the villa at the top of the hill? The beach house was empty, too, except that the weather was damp and the baby was too small to live in. Or, when the little thing is born, buy a house and write the baby's name on it. Ji Weiyang asked with a smile.
Zhan Yan seriously thought for a while, then replied, "I think I'll stay in the apartment on Jinwei Road. The villa is too big, and it's cold and deserted." She was afraid of the coldness and loneliness.
Ji Weiyang seemed to be able to see through her thoughts, his arms wrapped around her waist and intentionally pinched her waist, "With a baby, you won't be lonely anymore. "If you like, you can stay in the apartment first. It's more convenient to transport there, so we can move to the villa when the baby is older. The house is still too small, and the baby will be very mischievous when he grows up."
Zhan Yan remained silent. She had never felt that her happiness levels were related to the size of the houses, but she felt that playing hide-and-seek with the baby in the yard during the summer when the parasol tree was green was a very satisfying experience.
The two of them woke up a little late. Zhan Yan was too lazy to go downstairs, so she brought her breakfast in.
"Yan Yan, it's time for breakfast." When Ji Weiyang walked into the bedroom again, he realized that Zhan Yan was not in the house.
He placed the breakfast on the table, and then, through the lifted curtains, saw Zhan Yan standing on the balcony.
"Why are you standing here? What do we do if we get drenched by the rain? " Ji Weiyang hugged her from behind, and said with a little worry.
Her body was slightly cold as she leaned against his chest, absorbing the warmth from his body. She turned her head and smiled at him. "The room is a little stuffy. Come out for a breath of fresh air."
After she finished speaking, she closed her eyes and took a deep breath. The smell of the rain was moist, but it was exceptionally clean and steamy. The air was mixed with the faint fragrance of the earth.
Ji Weiyang stood beside her on the balcony for a while, looking out the window at the drizzling rain. Although the sky was gray, it didn't feel as bad as the weather.
"Weiyang, I want to go shopping. Can you accompany me?" Zhan Yan turned around and hugged him, her tone carrying a hint of coquettishness.
"What do you want to buy?" Ji Weiyang casually asked.
"You'll know what you want to buy when you see it." Zhan Yan giggled. When women go shopping, it was mainly because of the word "go".
After the two finished their breakfast, Ji Weiyang drove Zhan Yan to a new world store.
Due to the rain, the temperature had dropped slightly. On the outside of Zhan Yan's robes, there was even a thin knitted jacket, making her look even softer.
Zhan Yan only went to the babysitter's area and selected some socks and clothes for the baby. Then, she said that she couldn't walk anymore. Ji Weiyang had no choice but to take her to a cold drinks store inside the shopping mall to rest.
"Don't eat too much, pregnant women should eat less cold food." Ji Weiyang held onto the silver spoon with his slender fingers, gently stirring the black coffee.
Zhan Yan was holding a spoon in her hand, eating a small mouthful of Ice Demon Beast. She could only reluctantly put the Ice Demon aside and watch it slowly melt in the cup.
"Have some cake." Ji Weiyang pushed Tiramisu in front of her.
Zhan Yan frowned, and shook his head: "I don't want to eat it."
"Be good, just take a few bites. You can't just eat Ice Oscillation." Ji Weiyang picked up his spoon and placed a small piece of cake next to her lips.
Zhan Yan opened her mouth to eat it, but when Ji Weiyang took a second bite, she turned his head and said childishly, "It's your turn to eat it, me and you can do it, it's only fair."
"I really can't do anything to you." Ji Weiyang laughed helplessly and ate the cake. Then he would feed her.
Sitting next to them was a young couple. When the wife saw this scene, she asked the husband to please her. The husband seemed to have some ideas about men and didn't want to buy it.
"What nonsense is this? In public." the husband whispered.
"Look at them, they love each other." His wife was dissatisfied.
"If you compare yourself to her, then you must have just fallen in love. It's not like you're a little girl."
The conversation between the two could faintly be heard by Ji Weiyang and Zhan Yan. Zhan Yan laughed playfully, and teased, "Director Ji, have we just fallen in love?"
Ji Weiyang rolled his eyes at her, but his tone was extremely dubious. "You gave birth to my child the moment you just fell in love? Yan Yan, how much do you love me? "
"Stop being so smelly." Zhan Yan muttered as she lowered her head to eat the cake.
After leaving the cold drinks hall, the two of them went to the underground supermarket together. Ji Weiyang pushed the shopping cart, and Zhan Yan gently put her hand on his arm, as the two of them went back and forth between the rows of shelves, there had always been a lot of people in the supermarket. Ji Weiyang had always been carefully protecting them, afraid that someone would accidentally bump into her.
"Viyan, would you like some milk?" Zhan Yan stopped in front of the cold cabinet that was used to store Pap milk. and pick up a bag of milk to check the date of production.
Ji Weiyang took the milk bag from her hands and placed it back down, "Right now, you are the best to drink pregnant women's milk."
"But pregnant milk has a strange taste. Neither I nor the baby likes it." Zhan Yan pouted her lips, she habitually carried the baby in her stomach when she spoke.
Ji Weiyang chuckled, his movements extremely natural as he scratched the tip of her nose, "Don't be the baby's spokesperson, I think he really likes the smell of milk powder."
"How do you know?" Zhan Yan rolled his eyes at him, the baby was in her stomach, okay?
"Of course I know, because every time you finish drinking the milk of a pregnant woman, you don't vomit." Ji Weiyang said as a matter of course, no one even had a chance to refute him.
Zhan Yan's lips lightly moved twice, but she still did not say a single word in the end. Forget it, Ji Weiyang had once studied law before. He heard that he even passed the Judicial Exam and spoke reason with a prospective lawyer.
In the middle of the two rows of shelves, there were many products that were sold at discounts, and many people that were fighting to buy them. When they walked past, Ji Weiyang carefully protected Zhan Yan.
"It's better not to come to this kind of place next time. It's crowded, what if you get hurt?" Ji Weiyang frowned slightly.
"How can it be so expensive? Look at so many people, they're all coming to the supermarket every day to buy discount items, yet I've never heard of any of them returning with injuries." Zhan Yan said with a smile.
"Can they compete with you?"
"Why can't we compete? I don't have a gold border. "
"They're not pregnant, look which one of them went for the discount, huh?"
Zhan Yan's little face was filled with anger. She could not get even the slightest bit of advantage by bickering with him. It was better to just shut up.
"Mom said the moist fresh beef is not bad. Can we buy some to go home and fry the steak?"
"Alright." Ji Weiyang nodded and pushed the shopping cart towards the direction of meat products.
Zhan Yan was picking things out on the shelves, and behind her, Ji Weiyang's phone suddenly rang. Ji Weiyang glanced at it and noticed that it was Tang Feng calling.
"What is it?"
The other party seemed to have said something. Ji Weiyang immediately frowned, and subconsciously walked to the quieter corner to pick up the phone.
"What do you mean Linda doesn't agree to meet with Director Yang? Do you think you need to report this to me? You can't even manage to get a female artiste? "
"Linda has recently been in a relationship with the boss of a small company and his behavior has become more restrained. "She doesn't agree, I can't possibly force her and that surnamed Yang to do it, can I?" Tang Feng had always been merciful to beautiful women.
"If she really wanted to get married and have children, she wouldn't be staying in the entertainment industry. Tang Feng, there are a lot of ways to make a woman submit to me, I don't need to teach you about that. In short, I don't want my entire plan to be ruined just because of a Linda. " After Ji Weiyang finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
Only, when he turned his head, he discovered that Zhan Yan was actually standing behind him, staring at him with clear eyes.
Ji Weiyang's heart trembled slightly. Just how long had she been standing there?
