Su Qiao An dragged Zhu Jiangci out of the hall, and after exiting through the side door, she released the hand that was tightly holding onto Zhu Jiangci's arm, "Sorry, I just don't want you and Dad to start a fight in front of so many people."

With that, she paused for a moment, "I've already given you the gift. Don't worry, I'll leave now, I won't cause you any trouble."

She knew Zhu Jiangci did not want her to see anyone, and she also knew clearly that he did not want her to have any relationship with him in front of other people.

Only a few people knew that they were married, and although the old classmates in Hanjiang River knew that they were married, she believed that with Zhu Jiangci's abilities, he would have already done the job of sealing his mouth long ago.

She didn't want to come to an occasion like today. It was Chu Shixiong who insisted on letting her come, and she couldn't refuse him. In addition, Qi Yuan Yuan had begged her to help bring her in, so she couldn't follow Chu Shixiong over.

At that time, she had been hoping that Zhu Jiangci would be busy with work and did not have the time to come over.

Fortunately, there were no media reporters present, all the electronic equipment were under strict control, so she did not need to worry that her and Zhu Jiangci's actions would be taken secretly and made a big fuss.

Zhu Jiangci lowered her eyes and looked at her arm. The moment she let go of his arm, the bottom of her heart faintly felt a sense of loss.

This feeling was not good, and it was taboo.

He raised his eyes and looked at Su Qiao An.

I haven't seen her for a while. Her stomach seems to have gotten bigger, but instead of getting fat from pregnancy, she's thinner. Why?

Suddenly, the innocent words of a child echoed in his mind. Zhu Jiangci gradually lowered his gaze, and looked at Su Qiao An with a less harsh and responsible gaze, as well as a little more probing and obscure unfamiliar feelings.

"I'll send you back." He was silent for a while, and when he opened his mouth, it was to send her back.

Su Qiao An did not react in time, "Huh?" Did she hear wrong? Zhu Jiangci was not anxious to drive her away, but took the initiative to send her home? Is it going to rain or will it be the end of the world tomorrow?

"Don't misunderstand me. I just don't want others to see you like this. Some people will figure out countless scenes to make up stories. I don't want to deal with troubles like that." Zhu Jiangci explained coldly.

Su Qiao An replied as she looked at him suspiciously.

So what if others saw her? Even if he made up a story, it wouldn't affect him. If he were to go with him, it would be troublesome if someone else saw it!

She stood in place, unmoving. The man who was the first to leave paused his steps and turned around to look at her. "Still not leaving?"

Su Qiao An regained his senses and quickly followed.

There was one more person where they had been standing. Jiang Xinwei stood by the side door, watching as the two figures left. She was filled with suspicion.

Wasn't it said that the relationship between the husband and wife wasn't good? Why did it seem like the two of them were very close? Furthermore … That man seemed to be rather patient and tolerant towards Su Qiao An, unlike how he was cold towards them.

Was it because big sister had already noticed the change in that man that she decided to kill Su Qiao An to get rid of her?

She did not like Su Qiao An, but she had never wanted to take Su Qiao An's life nor did she want to do anything to him. What her sister did was to kill him off.

Could a person, drenched in blood, really embrace happiness and achieve a blissful future?

She forcefully shook her head, trying to get all the messy thoughts out of her head.

Forget it! I don't want to! Anyway, none of this had anything to do with her!

"Aren't we going home?" Su Qiao An looked out of the window, a little doubtful, "This isn't the way home, where are you bringing me to?"

Zhu Jiangci didn't even bother to reply and lured Su Qiao An to look at him. Seeing his cold face, he resentfully shut his mouth.

When the car stopped, Zhu Jiangci got off first, leaving Su Qiao An with no choice but to follow in a sorry state.

She was still pregnant and couldn't keep up with Zhu Jiangci's footsteps, so her walking was a little strenuous. It was unknown if it was her imagination, but Zhu Jiangci's speed seemed to have slowly decreased, and it wasn't easy for her to keep up with Zhu Jiangci.

The moment they entered the Exquisite Pavilion, the waiter originally planned to bring them to the second floor, but Zhu Jiangci said, "We'll open a room downstairs."

The waiter was startled, he looked at Su Qiao An who was behind him, seeing her pregnant, he immediately understood what Zhu Jiangci meant, and said respectfully: "Young Master Chu, please wait for a moment."

After being led into the private room, the waiter left, leaving only the two of them behind.

The last time she came, she was brought here by force, and was even locked in a room upstairs for a long time. In the end, Zhu Jiangci came and ate a meal, then left without saying or doing anything, leaving her completely confused.

This time, Su Qiao An followed him again. She was in a very complicated mood as she sat in the dining chair, with her hands on her lower abdomen and gently caressed it.

"You've met Kui Kui?" Zhu Jiangci asked.

She was startled for a moment before gently shaking her head. "I haven't."

After a short conversation, they fell into a long silence. She wasn't good at talking about things like this, and Zhu Jiangci wasn't a talkative person either. The words the two of them would say the most was to hurt each other, to use sharp and malicious words to hurt each other.

Now that they were at peace, the two of them sat down in peace and didn't have anything to say.

Su Qiao An thought for a moment, then said, "Oh yes, Miss Jiang has already settled in, I have never seen her, and she does not know of my existence. Don't worry, no one will gossip about me."

"Do I need you to tell me about my arrangements?" Zhu Jiangci asked sarcastically.

Su Qiao An was speechless.

Jiang Kerou had arranged all the living arrangements for Jiang Kerou, so it was only after taking care of everything that she would dare to let people live in the Chu residence.

"After you give birth to your child, I will arrange everything for you and your child." Zhu Jiangci suddenly said, "You don't have to be so worried, no matter how crazy I am, I won't make a move on my own flesh and blood."

"Is that so? But you said you didn't want him. " Su Qiao An laughed bitterly.

He hated to see Su Qiao An like that, and even less did he like her using this tone to talk to him.

The person who had been defined and located within the bottom of his heart suddenly became abnormal and revealed a fragile side, causing him to be thrown into chaos.

He did not deny that the subtle feeling was one of heartache.

"You should understand that I don't like things happening that are beyond my control. The child's arrival was an accident, so it's normal for me not to want him." Zhu Jiangci said warmly, "Since things have already come to this, I will no longer do anything that would harm the child. I can let you safely give birth to the child, and that's all, don't hold any expectations for me.
