I'm pregnant with a wealthy Old Man's ChildCh24 - Mother Xue

Zu Qi blinked blankly, and it took him a while to recover from the surprise. He said ‘huh?’ in his heart. He didn’t expect that this little cousin actually had two faces.

“I have never been to the fetal heart rate monitoring room for an examination. I wonder if the rules here are normal?” Zu Qi shrugged his shoulders and said quite innocently. vJSdqV

But despite what he said, he quickly stood up and sat on the single bed in front of Cui JunZhuo.

Obviously, this was not the first time Cui JunZhuo had attacked the original owner verbally, but it was the first time Zu Qi had attacked him back on the spot. For a moment, Cui JunZhuo was stunned and did not move, his eyes widened in disbelief and he glared at Zu Qi.

Zu Qi held his round belly and sat in front of Cui JunZhuo. When he raised his head, there was already a smile on his face, and he looked back at Cui JunZhuo without fear.

Cui JunZhuo had a gentle and particularly charming face, and the rimless glasses on the bridge of his nose made him look more cultured. KWvY7F

——However, this was just Zu Qi’s evaluation of Cui JunZhuo five minutes ago.

Looking at it now, Cui JunZhuo’s lowered eyes and mouth corners made him look very unfriendly. The luster cast by the incandescent light on his spectacle lenses made him look sharper instantly.

No matter in terms of expression or temperament, Cui JunZhuo at this moment was completely different from him just now.

After the two of them stared at each other for a while, Zu Qi reminded him awkwardly and politely: “Can we start the examination?”

“Of course.” Cui JunZhuo’s voice was several degrees lower than before, and he half-squinted his eyes. He looked at Zu Qi meaningfully again, and then lowered his eyes to suppress the disgust in his eyes.

The next moment, Cui JunZhuo ordered coldly: “Pull up your clothes.”

Zu Qi was amused by Cui JunZhuo’s childish behavior of turning his face and not recognizing anyone, and the corners of his mouth couldn’t help turning upwards.

He hurriedly cleared his throat and pulled up his clothes in a very cooperative manner, revealing his eight-month-pregnant belly. mGt kf

Cui JunZhuo placed the two small round iron plates on Zu Qi’s belly. He turned his head to look at the instrument, but caught a glimpse of Zu Qi’s half-smiling face in his peripheral vision. He immediately said with a cold face: “What’s so funny?”

“I’m happy.” Zu Qi replied.

“Don’t laugh even if you’re happy!” Cui JunZhuo’s brows were almost tied into a knot, and the frost on his cheeks was almost spreading along the air.

“Okay, okay, I won’t laugh anymore.” TchQwE

Seeing that Cui JunZhuo was really angry, Zu Qi was very sensible and quickly put away the smile on his face. He pursed his lips, and tried his best to pretend to be extremely serious.

It’s a pity that Zu Qi’s backing down was not satisfied by Cui JunZhuo. He quietly paid attention to Zu Qi’s every move. The longer he watched, the deeper the disgust in his eyes became.

When the examination was almost over, Cui JunZhuo finally couldn’t bear it anymore. He raised the corner of his mouth and said coldly: “Just because my cousin can bear it doesn’t mean that the rest of us can tolerate it. You know yourself clearly what dirty things you have done before. If you are not pregnant with the Xue family’s child, do you think you can sit here comfortably?”

Zu Qi had already guessed that Cui JunZhuo would say this, so he was not surprised at this time. qGEJpm

Perhaps Cui JunZhuo was one of the few people who knew the inside story and knew that the original owner drugged Xue Jue at the banquet last year.

“I warn you not to make any more fuss. If you want to hype up or return to the entertainment industry, it’s your own business. Don’t drag my cousin into it. You think that by disclosing your relationship with my cousin, you can affirm your stupid position? In your dreams!” Q7ohzM

When Cui JunZhuo spoke, his speech was clear, in a cadence, and very pleasant to the ear, but every word he spat out was sharp and unkind.

After hearing those words, Zu Qi immediately understood.

It turned out that the reason why Cui JunZhuo was so angry was because of the melon from a few days ago, thinking that Zu Qi was deliberately hyping it up, and took advantage of the situation to tie himself up with Xue Jue.

Then he felt really wronged! tB7yLg

Although he told Bai GuangJian about the affair between Shi Hao and Chen MeiXin, he did not expect that Bai GuangJian would put the matter online, and the subsequent development of the situation was completely out of his control.

Zu Qi said gently: “I am also a victim in this incident. I cannot control the direction of public opinion. It is too unreasonable for you to indiscriminately push all the responsibilities onto my head.”

However, it turned out that Cui JunZhuo was originally an unreasonable person.

Facing Zu Qi’s painstaking explanation, his face was so cold that he didn’t even raise his eyebrows. His cool eyes seemed to see through Zu Qi’s soul. The air of “I won’t listen. I don’t believe it.” covered all over his body. i4sgHo

Zu Qi: “…”

After talking for a long time, he ended up playing the lute to a cow.

After a long stalemate, Zu Qi finally compromised and leaned back on the chair. He lifted his clothes a few more times, and helplessly let it go, saying: “Forget it, think whatever you like.”

Zu Qi thought after Cui JunZhuo talked about it for a while, he would stop. But, who knew that this person would be talking endlessly. ib nsM

Until the examination was done, Cui JunZhuo was still mocking sarcastically that Zu Qi was hyping up this time so that he could smoothly return to the entertainment industry after giving birth.

Zu Qi: “…”

Having too many headcanons was a disease that needed to be cured.

Seeing that Zu Qi continued to remain silent with a speechless face, Cui JunZhuo thought that he had exposed the other party’s shameless thoughts,  the ridicule in his eyes became even more intense, and even his tone became strange. MXu5k0

“Zu Qi, you are really good. You have already taken this into account. If you don’t become famous in the future, I will be sorry for your efforts now!”

“Unfortunately, you’re wrong.” Zu Qi suddenly spoke. He looked up at Cui JunZhuo, who had a livid face, and said with a smile, “I’m not a fool. I’ve already hugged Xue Jue’s golden thigh. Why do I have to work so hard to make a career in the entertainment industry? Anyway, Xue Jue will give me money, and I just need to eat, drink and have fun.”

Cui JunZhuo was stunned by Zu Qi’s shameless words. He was stunned for a long time, then pointed at Zu Qi angrily and said, “Sure enough, you tried every means to drug my cousin just for the sake of money. You are too shameless!”

Zu Qi smiled and said nothing. yH8M1W

Cui JunZhuo was so angry that he sputtered a lot. After taking a breath, Zu Qi interrupted him with a calm voice: “Are you thirsty?”

“No!” Cui JunZhuo, who was angry, replied viciously.

“I’m thirsty, go and pour me a glass of water.” Zu Qi pointed to the kettle on the table not far away, “Just half a cup will do.”

Cui JunZhuo’s eyes widened in disbelief: “You want me to pour you water?” FBYh2l

Zu Qi took out his phone: “Then I’ll call Xue Jue to come in and help.”

Before Zu Qi could dial Xue Jue’s number, the angry Cui JunZhuo suddenly walked to the table like a gust of wind. He picked up the cup and poured water. He walked back and handed it to Zu Qi: “Here you go!”

“Thank you.” Zu Qi took the cup with a smile.

Later, Zu Qi figured out a way to deal with Cui JunZhuo. Whenever Cui JunZhuo wanted to make things difficult for him, he would find an excuse to order Cui JunZhuo about. gkw5l7

At first, Cui JunZhuo was not willing to run errands for Zu Qi, with a gloomy expression as if he was going to eat Zu Qi alive. But in a blink of an eye, he saw Zu Qi picking up his cell phone and about to call Xue Jue. The next second, Cui JunZhuo ran errands faster than a rabbit.

After going down this again and again, Cui JunZhuo, who had been frustrated many times, simply closed his mouth and concentrated on examining Zu Qi with a sullen face.

Zu Qi, who was harped on about for a long time, finally had some peace.

After this incident, Zu Qi suddenly realized that the impression of him in the hearts of Xue Jue’s relatives and friends may have hit rock bottom long ago. Even if those people didn’t know about the matter of the original owner drugging Xue Jue, they would still think that Zu Qi was a little star who worked hard to climb high. xULram

It seemed that it was better to have less contact with those people in the future.

He could barely resist one or two Cui JunZhuo. If those people all had Cui JunZhuo’s character, even if Zu Qi really had nine lives, it wouldn’t be enough to deal with them.

Just after thinking about it, Zu Qi, who was walking in front, opened the door and saw Weng YuXiang’s well-maintained and smiling face.

“You finally came out. I wanted to go in and see you, but Xiao Jue said that there is a difference between men and women, so she won’t let me in.” Weng YuXiang glared at Xue Jue as she spoke, then eagerly took Zu Qi’s hand, “Let me take a look. Aiya, you’ve lost weight. You, this child, don’t be affected by those comments on the Internet. They are all unqualified people. We don’t care about them.” E3HeqK

Xue Jue next to her said expressionlessly: “Uncle Zhang said he has gained four kilograms.”

Zu Qi: “…Why does Steward Zhang even have to report this to you…”

Xue Jue asked back, “Otherwise, what else does he have to say? Say you often coerce and bribe Xiao Ya to buy you roast goose?”

Zu Qi: “…” JhdvOD

“Can you not say a few words?” Weng YuXiang turned her head with a sullen face and glanced at her sharp-tongued son. Her eyes were full of warnings. She then turned back to face Zu Qi, showing an amiable smile again, “Are you hungry? Xiao Zhao has booked a restaurant, let’s go eat first.”

After speaking, Weng YuXiang turned to look at Cui JunZhuo, who was standing behind Zu Qi without saying a word.

“Xiao Zhuo, let’s go together too. Since you came back from studying abroad, our aunt and nephew haven’t had a meal alone.”

“Since my aunt had already said it herself, then I will have to accept the invitation.” Cui JunZhuo smiled. He returned to his previous gentle and polite look, as if the harshness just now was just Zu Qi’s illusion. SlBvVc

After handing over the work, Cui JunZhuo changed into a set of casual clothes. Like Xue Jue, he had a perfect clothes rack figure, and no matter what he wore, he could set off his clothes very well.

If he hadn’t seen his true face, the face-con Zu Qi would have been fooled by Cui JunZhuo’s appearance.

After Xiao Zhao made a reservation at the restaurant, he took a taxi and left with Steward Zhang.

Xue Jue drove the group of them to the restaurant. Cui JunZhuo sat in the front passenger seat, Zu Qi and Weng YuXiang sat in the back seat. 6rYOES

Although Weng YuXiang was over 60 years old, her skin condition did not look old after long-term maintenance. Her beautiful facial features and gentle temperament also added a lot of extra points to her.

With a mother like Weng YuXiang who was so beautiful that her age could not be discerned, it was no wonder that Xue Jue’s physical qualities were so excellent that he could not be ugly even if he wanted to.

After Zu Qi came to this world, he often received video calls from Weng YuXiang. Perhaps life in the Xue family was too boring. Weng YuXiang liked to chat with Zu Qi very much, and Zu Qi often made her laugh heartily.

However, no matter how unhappy Weng YuXiang was in the past, she would never show her emotions on her face, but now, there was a faint sadness on her face all along. g0pAQ6

Zu Qi saw all of Weng YuXiang’s reaction. He guessed that Weng YuXiang should have something on her mind, but he didn’t know how to comfort her.

Of course, his comfort would have no effect anyway.

Fortunately, the distance from the hospital to the restaurant was very short. After getting out of the car, Weng YuXiang seemed to have noticed her strangeness and quickly sorted out her expression. The sad look on her face disappeared without a trace in a short time.

Xiao Zhao booked a high-end Chinese restaurant that only served VIP customers.  He booked a private room on the second floor. The tall and beautiful waiter led the four of them to the private room. dqKyp8

Before entering the box, Zu Qi suddenly felt urgent to urinate. After telling Weng YuXiang, he turned and walked towards the restroom.

Just after a few steps, someone suddenly grabbed Zu Qi’s arm from behind.

Zu Qi turned his head and saw Xue Jue’s handsome face with a slight frown. Xue Jue’s eyes swept over Zu Qi’s protruding belly, and then he warned: “Don’t walk too fast, be careful of falling.”

Zu Qi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry: “Big Brother, I’m in a hurry.” 2n3MK8

Xue Jue’s hand holding Zu Qi’s arm moved down a little, and he then took Zu Qi’s hand and intertwined their fingers.

“You’re inconvenient, I’ll go with you.” Xue Jue said.

Zu Qi was taken aback by Xue Jue’s inexplicable behavior. He was wondering if there was something wrong with him. But in an instant, when he saw Weng YuXiang looking at them with a smile, Zu Qi understood instantly.

There was still a full set of acting to be performed, so Zu Qi had no choice but to be led to the restroom by Xue Jue like a child. wYdSHR

  1. Does anyone else think that the original Zu Qi would never drug Xue jue?? From the description we’ve gotten from everyone in the novel so far, whether it be his enemies like shi hao and Yang MoNing or those around Xue Jue, including his cousin, it seemed like og Zu Qi was weak willed and incredibly meek, aka a person who would never take the initiative and stand up for himself even if he was wronged cs he’d believe no one would believe HIM + I dont think he has the courage to drug one of the biggest and richest business man in the industry. He was probably forced into it too my someone nasty inorder to make him provoke the Xue family and have a worse time in the industry than he originally had. Ofc these are my own thoughts, they arent necessarily true and og Zu qi couldve been desperate for a way out of his miserable life even tho it feels like its highly unlikely for him to behave this way
