"Why, when did it become a smoking room?"

When Shen Qian entered, he also coughed a few times without any warning. Next, he used his hand to lightly fan his nose as he frowned in disdain.

He was very self-conscious now. He didn't even touch a cigarette, afraid that if he went to the hospital, the smell of the cigarette would excite his beloved baby, and of course, their son.

But in reality, everything that had happened was too much for Officer Shen. At most, he could only stand in the corridor, not even able to touch the door handle.

"Young Master Shen, you're here."

Seeing that official Shen Qian had arrived, Zhang Chi's gloomy eyes instantly lit up. He could swear that he had never been like this before, looking forward to the arrival of Minister Shen Qian.

"Yo, Zhang Chi, I haven't seen you for a few days, but you're actually so enthusiastic about me. How rare!"

Officer Shen walked over with his long legs swinging, smiling at Zhang Qianzhao before looking at Qi Junhao, "Yo, what's wrong with you?"

Only to see that the usually high-spirited him now had a dispirited attitude, as though only a lovelorn man could possess such a decadent nature. At this moment, he couldn't help but furrow his brows in astonishment.

"What are you doing here?"

Qi Junhao raised his head and glanced at him, and took a long drag from his cigarette. Seeing that the cigarette had burned down to the end, he put it out and threw it in the ashtray.

"Well, in order to take care of my future wife and son, I came here on purpose to ask for leave from you!"

He was so immersed in the joy of becoming a foster father that he didn't even notice that when he said the word "son", a hint of gloom flashed across the man's deep eyes.

"…"

Qi Junhao pursed his lips, and took out another cigarette. He lit it up, and watched the tiny sparks slowly spread. His eyes narrowed, but no emotion could be seen in them.

A few seconds later, he faintly opened his mouth and asked, "How long do I need?"

"One year!"

Minister Shen Qian bluntly gave a number.

Zhang Chi silently wiped his sweat, hehe, one year?

To think that Young Master Shen dared to mention it!

Indeed, after hearing him say "a year", Qi Junhao's thin lips moved slightly, and he finally spat out a word — —

"Not even a day!"

What?

He was stunned and quickly shouted, "Why? No matter what, I've worked for Fenghua Group for so many years, and I haven't rested for the entire year. Now that I've rested for a year, why can't I? "

"Zhang Chi, he's very noisy, throw him out!"

Qi Junhao spoke coolly as he leaned back and slowly closed his eyes.

"Young Master Shen, please go back!"

Zhang Chi helplessly made a gesture to invite the boss out, but in his heart, he secretly sighed. It seems that the boss is really bewitched this time, even Young Master Shen is unwilling to respond.

"Qi Junhao, what happened to you?"

Minister Shen Qian was not so easy to deal with. Seeing that Qi Junhao did not look like a normal person, he decided to risk it all and kicked his calf. "Why are you acting like this? What happened?" he asked with concern.

"…"

He was still being ignored.

"Hey, could it be that you lost your love? "Haha, did Li Mengqi abandon you?"

He suddenly laughed heartily.

When Qi Junhao heard this, he opened his eyes and swept a glance across the young man's face, "You care too much!"

"Oh, women, that's all. If you have a temper, then just coax it. You have already loved her for so many years, how could you possibly care about her, right? "

You can't even handle your own affairs, and you still dare to call yourself a successful man in front of me?

"Sigh, there are a lot of things that only the onlookers know about." "Just tell me what difficulties have occurred to you. Who knows? I might be able to give you some advice."

Seeing him dead, Officer Shen was a hundred percent sure that he had quarreled with Li Mengqi. However, he had never thought that the problems between them would be more troublesome than he had imagined.

Thus, when Qi Junhao simply described Li Mengqi as having a five-year-old son, money officer Shen was in a mess. Not only him, but Zhang Chi was also shocked. He had never imagined that Jiang Yanxi would actually give the Boss a green hat.

Sigh, if it was anyone else, they wouldn't be able to accept it, right?

After a long time, Officer Shen came to his senses and asked optimistically, "Perhaps, that child is your son."

Although the date of birth was not the right number, there had been a child who was 13 months pregnant. Who knew if that child was such a special existence.

However, Qi Junhao spoke with determination, "Impossible!"

"Why not?"

He noticed that Qi Junhao did not look like he was joking at all. Suddenly, a thought came to his mind, and he asked carefully, "Could it be …?" Is that part of you that bad? "

Sweat.

Zhang Chi, who was standing aside, subconsciously looked at Qi Junhao. He saw his handsome face, which was now as gloomy as a rolling thundercloud, slowly spreading the cold air around him, as if a fierce wind was about to blow in the next second.

Zhang Chi thought to himself, this Young Master Shen might not be able to get a leave of absence.

Indeed, the next second, he saw Qi Junhao take out his mobile and make a call. He ordered in a cold voice, "Appoint Officer Shen Qian as the representative of Fenghua Group in Africa. He has full authority over Africa. Effective immediately!"

Following which, under the dumbstruck gaze of the bank representative, Qi Junhao gracefully waved his phone with a slight curve to his lips, "Representative Shen, hurry up and take up your post!"

F * ck —

City B.

Compared to Qi Junhao, Li Mengqi's days were similarly dark without any daylight.

Ever since that day, there had been no news of the man, and he had completely disappeared from her world. She didn't know how she had endured these past few days. In her muddled state, she had been awoken by her tears, and then, a splitting headache came upon her.

How he really wanted to muster up the courage to call him, but every time he pressed the last number, she would forcefully delete it and leave the phone on the shelf, tears would once again fall down his face.

Again and again she repeated the same trajectory, and fortunately, when she could not help crying, a small hand would always reach out and gently wipe away her tears.

"Mommy, don't cry. Uncle doesn't want you to be afraid. You still have a mortal!"

The childish words of the little shota had always easily hit the softest spot in her heart. 'Can I not be so sensible in my mortal world …'

The more sensible he was, the more it reflected how incompetent she was as a mother!

Thinking of this, Li Mengqi couldn't help but hug him tightly, choking up her emotions as she said, "Fan Fan, you really are Mommy's darling!"

No matter how she became pregnant and mortal, the child was always innocent. Even if she didn't want to admit it, the connection between their blood and flesh was real.

Women, more or less, all had a natural maternal nature to them. Therefore, even if they didn't know who the father of their child was, they still couldn't stop Li Mengqi from loving Fan's heart.

It was noon when Fang Menglin called.

"Dearest, I'm in B City. It's near your home, at the Happy Coffee Shop. Come out."

Fang Menglin's voice was not as jubilant as it was before, but it was also true that anyone who knew that their best friend had experienced such shocking things would have a particularly heavy heart.

"Alright, wait a moment."

After Li Mengqi finished speaking, she grabbed a coat and put it on before carrying her bag out of the house.

The coffee shop that the two of them had agreed to meet was at the intersection and would be there in five minutes.

Just as Li Mengqi walked in, she saw Fang Menglin sitting on a booth in the corner, smiling as she waved at her.

She slightly nodded and subconsciously quickened her steps as she walked over.

"Why are you suddenly free to come over?"

Li Mengqi, who was sitting across her, asked quietly. Her originally delicate face was now devoid of any life.

Fang Menglin did not answer her question. Instead, she was shocked by the dark circles under her eyes. "Oh god, are you trying to change your name to National Treasure?"

"Sigh, even the national treasure is better than it is now!"

Li Mengqi sighed, her heart still heavy.

As if infected by her low mood, Fang Menglin's bright eyes slightly flickered and she gently asked, "So, what do you plan to do now?"

Fang Menglin had learned two days ago that while all Kiki's sons were Kiki's, Kiki was not the Kiki she had always thought she was. At that time, she was so shocked that she almost couldn't speak. If it wasn't for the fact that she had a project on hand, she would have already dashed over.

"I don't have any plans!"

Li Mengqi held the spoon and stirred the bubbly cappuccino. There was a trace of darkness in her eyes.

"Then you and Qi Junhao …"

Fang Menglin frowned and asked cautiously, her tone filled with concern.

Sigh, such luck. If it were the son of Qi Junhao, how good would it be?

Unfortunately, all of this could only be a beautiful wish, right?

After all, it was unlikely that he would give birth to a child after 13 months of pregnancy. Judging from this, the chances were very low that Qi Junhao was the father of the child.

"Heh, do you think we can still be together?"

As Li Mengqi spoke to here, her delicate face flashed with a trace of pain.

Fang Menglin looked at her expression and sighed, "There are a lot of things that outsiders can't help you with. It all depends on your determination and his." Qi Junhao loves you so much, I believe that if he had the time, he would have slowly thought it through and accepted you. "

"Even if he accepts it, I won't be able to be with him anymore!"

Li Mengqi slowly spoke, barely able to utter a word. It was as if she was telling herself that it was time to let him go.

So what if he loved her? The moment he turned around and left, she understood that no matter what, the thorn in a man's heart couldn't be removed. His desire to monopolize a woman's body was as strong as his, and his obsession with cleanliness was as deep as his. Not to mention, that was her proof of betraying him …

She had truly betrayed him …

Hades, I'm sorry!

Li Mengqi silently said in her heart. Suddenly, her heart began to throb as if it had been cut by countless knives. They gouged it out again and again, causing it to bleed profusely.

"Kiki, don't do this. In this world, there are plenty of people who bring their children to marriage, not to mention that anyone who sees someone as cute as him would like to see him! "

Fang Menglin couldn't help but comfort her.

"The characteristics are different, Fang Menglin!"

Li Mengqi shook her head and smiled bitterly, saying, "If I had no past with Hades and just started to love him now, maybe he would accept the mortal world because of loving me. But the truth is, when he found me six years ago and found out that I gave birth to a son for another man, can you imagine how heartbroken he was? "

"…"

Fang Menglin was speechless. She just looked up at her and stared at her.

How disappointed Hades was... "Wu wu wu, I have let him down!

"Qiqi —"

Seeing that her face was covered in tears, Fang Menglin sighed and passed a tissue to her. "Don't think too much about it, it's not your fault. You had to do it, huh?"

That year, exactly what happened? Up until now, it was still a mystery. Who the father of the child was, it was even more impossible to know. At this moment, Fang Menglin couldn't help but think about the worst case scenario. Her heart tightened as she felt heartache for her.

Li Mengqi wiped her tears and choked on her sobs, "It's all my fault. I obviously loved him that much, but why are you still so despicable, betraying him?" Even I am unable to forgive myself for this matter, not to mention obtaining his forgiveness. Hades, it's worth it to be treated better by women! "

"You love him, and he loves you as well. Are you willing to give him to someone else?"

"So what if I am unwilling? Could he put Fan back into his stomach? "That year, perhaps I was as dirty as I could be. As long as I thought of certain possibilities, I would feel disgusted …"

Yes, every time she thought of other men leaving traces on her body, she felt goosebumps all over her body. These past few days, every time she took a bath, she would rub her skin until it turned red, only stopping when blood appeared.

"Kiki, you mustn't think like that. Communicate well with Qi Junhao. Perhaps, he will understand. "

In fact, she was not sure.

Li Mengqi forced out a smile, her eyes shining with tears. She sighed, "Linlin, thank you for your consolation, but no one knows better than me that Hades is determined to give me up this time."

Otherwise, he wouldn't have come so many days without a single trace of WeChat.

Seeing this, an idea came to Fang Menglin's mind. She held her hand excitedly and asked, "Do you think that there is another possibility that the mortal world is not your son but the real Qi?"

She would say so, not for no reason.

First of all, why didn't that cunning old fox, Grandpa Li, mention it at some other time? Why did he only tell the truth about Qi Junhao's son when Qi Junhao came to visit him?

Since he had painstakingly concealed the truth for so many years, and now he had solved it, wasn't it to break up this bitter couple …

When Fang Meng Lin had clearly analyzed a lot of things to Li Meng Qi, Li Meng Qi let out a heavy sigh and helplessly shook her head, "I tested the DNA test with the mortal world, so there's a 99.9% paternity test. Do you think DNA can be faked?"

She wasn't a fool. Of course she wouldn't believe her grandfather's words. That was why she secretly took their hair for DNA testing. The results confirmed her grandfather's words, which meant she was determined to leave Qi Junhao's side of her heart.

"That Qi Junhao, did he go to take the test?"

"He doesn't want to!"

After determining the date of Fan Fan's birth, the first thing he did was to believe that the child belonged to someone else. How could he be willing to test for DNA?

"Damn, this damn man!"

Fang Meng Lin couldn't help but curse. She clenched her fists and gritted her teeth.

"Enough, don't cry out for me. I have made the wrong choice in this matter. No matter how he treats me, he won't go overboard! "

Yes, that was the only way to make himself feel better, to be able to hypnotize himself and not blame him …

Resentment?

Did she have the qualifications?

After chatting with Fang Menglin for a while, Li Mengqi's depressed mood had improved a bit.

The two of them sat in the coffee shop for the whole afternoon. It wasn't until sunset that she came home with heavy steps.

At this moment, there was one more person at home.

"Qiqi —"

Li Jianzhong, who was playing chess with the old man, saw his sister walking in listlessly. A trace of worry flashed across his deep eyes as he called out to her in a low voice.

"Big brother, you're here!"

Seeing that it was her big brother, Li Mengqi's eyes flickered for a moment before returning to normal. She squeezed out a smile at him.

"I arrived in the afternoon, just as you were out."

Li Jianzhong lightly explained as he looked at her with a heavy gaze. Seeing his sister's pale face and his slightly swollen eyes, he patted her shoulder with some heartache, and asked, "Is he sick? Have you taken any medicine? "

"After coming back from New York, the time difference isn't quite there. Everything will be fine after a while."

Not wanting to worry Li Jianzhong, Li Mengqi played it down. Thinking back to what his grandfather had said, he couldn't help feeling sad as his big brother still didn't know that this little sister was fake.

"There are a lot of things that need a transition period. Big Brother believes that you are a strong child, do your best! "

Li Jianzhong didn't expect that his sister and Qi Junhao would develop to the point where they could meet their parents. What's more, he didn't expect that his grandfather would tell him about Fan Fan's affairs in order to break them up …

What a sin!

Fortunately, his sister's endurance was much better than what he had imagined!

As for that Qi Junhao, well, let's not talk about him.

"Thank you Big Brother, I will definitely work hard!"

Li Mengqi nodded, her tone filled with determination.

"En, this is my good sister!"

Li Jianzhong revealed a gratified smile.

Seated at the head of the table, Li Zazheng saw that the two siblings were very close. His dignified old face unconsciously softened. He coughed lightly and urged, "Alright, it's almost time for dinner. Let's go to the dining room to chat."

"Yes, grandfather!"

The two siblings replied in unison.

"These two days, big brother will take a break and accompany you and Fan Fan to walk around and relax."

"Okay, then let's go for a spring outing?"

Although Li Mengqi wasn't in the mood right now, but she didn't want to let her big brother down, so she still obediently agreed.

"Alright, let's set off tomorrow morning. "Now, let's eat first. I heard that grandpa said that you haven't been able to eat at all lately, so you must not learn from the mortal realm and get an anorexia."

"I know. I will eat a lot today! "

She really shouldn't be this depressed anymore.

"Alright, I'll watch!"

After saying that, Li Jianzhong gently patted her head before turning around and stepping into the dining hall.

After the meal, in order to coax his sister to be happy, the normally quiet Li Jianzhong, on the other hand, was particularly talkative. He unceasingly told many interesting stories, causing Fan Fan to burst into laughter. The atmosphere was extremely harmonious.

Li Mengqi couldn't help smiling, and smiled sincerely.

Li Zhaozheng watched the three of them interacting. He calmly pursed his lips and a deep look appeared in his eyes. It was so complicated that it was hard to tell them apart.

Perhaps because of Li Jianzhong's presence, Li Mengqi had a rare appetite and ate a big bowl of rice.

After sitting in the living room for a while, Li Mengqi returned to her room and picked up her clothes to take a bath.

At this moment, his phone rang. It was Fang Menglin.

"Kiki, I suddenly thought of something very important to tell you. Wait for me at home, I'll be right there!"
