Half an hour later, Xiao Cha and Zhong Chai were sitting in their bedroom, clutching a box of Durex and staring at each other in dismay.
Zhong Chai took up the aluminum foil packet and held it up to the light.
And noticed a bright pinprick.
Zhong Chai: “…”
Xiao Cha: “…”
“Do you wish to bind me with a child, Xiao Cha?” Zhong Chai asked.
“I will not do what you do not want me to do,” Xiao Cha shook his head. He looked into his eyes again and asked seriously, “Are you willing to believe me?”
Zhong Chai gave a nod.
“Then let’s analyze it together,” Xiao Cha said with a sigh of relief.
Although Zhong Chai had always been oblivious to the ways of the world, fooling him was not easy. After all, he’d thrived in business and could swiftly resolve many issues if he changed it to work.
For example, who stands to gain the most from this event?
Xiao Cha was not only married to him, but also had married into his family. He couldn’t limit Zhong Chai even if they had a child. In other words, Zhong Chai was the “bankroller,” and he had the final say on whether or not to keep the child.
However, Zhong Chai’s pregnancy should result in a reduction in some of his workload…
So, the person who did this should be the person who wished to profit from it.
Aside from the two of them, there was only housekeeping who came twice a week.
Thankfully, hidden cameras had been placed in the corridor and living room. Zhong Chai calculated the time and retrieved the relevant records.
Sure enough. One afternoon, the housekeeper entered the master bedroom before leaving, but exited quickly. The essential issue was that she didn’t have any cleaning supplies with her.

Zhong Chai was always swift and decisive. He pulled out his phone and dialed the secretary, saying, “Help me investigate the background of the Shabi Housekeeping Company.”

Another one who wished to climb to the top.
Zhong Chai sneered as he dialed the secretary’s phone number: “It's getting cold, let the Sha family go bankrupt.”
Secretary: “?”
Zhong Chai instantly hugged Xiao Cha after hanging up, claiming credit: “Am I not very handsome!”
“Mm-hmm, you are the most handsome,” Xiao Cha said to Zhong Chai, who looked like a puppy wagging his tail.
Puppy: “Hehe.”
Secretary: “…” I hope you bosses can speak clearly before you hang up!!!
When Zhong Chai came home with Xiao Cha a few days later, Xiao Cha accidentally mentioned the “dirty hands and feet” of housekeeping at the dinner table.
Mother Zhong was not one to be trifled with, and she grasped the meaning of the words right away.
The housekeepers were then replaced by their own people, and Shabi Company was never seen again.
At the Spring Festival, Xiao Cha brought Zhong Chai to his home.
Xiao Cha’s parents were both teachers, and they appeared to be extremely friendly. Xiao Cha’s mother grabbed Zhong Chai’s hand and began questioning him as soon as he walked through the door, asking whether he was used to it, if he had any adverse symptoms, if he avoided particular foods, and if he slept well at night…
It was rare for Zhong Chai to be treated so warmly by his elders, so he was a little embarrassed: “I’m alright, Auntie. Everything is fine, and Xiao Cha also looks after me carefully.”
Xiao Cha’s mother pretended to be serious: “Auntie?”
Zhong Chai hastily corrected himself: “Mom…”
Xiao Cha took him by the shoulders and led him to the sofa, “Mom, stop teasing him, you can scare him later.”
“This child is incredibly shy,” Xiao Cha’s mother laughed.
Xiao Cha inquired, “Where’s dad?”
“He’s in the kitchen.” Xiao Cha’s mother took a seat next to Zhong Chai, and the more she gazed at her daughter-in-law, the happier she became. “Omega does not cook during the Spring Festival as is customary in our family. Let Xiao Cha prepare delicious food for you.”
Zhong Chai laughed dryly: Actually, I’m solely in charge of eating.
Xiao Cha also had a 12-year-old younger sister who had been playing games in her room and had only joined them when dinner was ready.
The younger sister resembled Xiao Cha, but she was cold-tempered and uncommunicative.
Zhong Chai: “What’s your name?”
The younger sister was expressionless: “Bai Lianhua.”
Zhong Chai: “?”
Xiao Cha: “My younger sister takes my mother’s surname.”
Zhong Chai: “Nice name, really elegant.”
Xiao Cha brought Zhong Chai into his room after dinner and pulled out his childhood photo book.
“Is that you climbing the tree?” Zhong Chai said, surprised.
“It’s me,” Xiao Cha said with a smile.
“What about this muddy brat?”
“It’s me.”
“And this one with the puppy?”
“It’s me.”
Zhong Chai clicked his tongue in amazement: “I can’t tell, you were rather noisy when you were small.”
Xiao Cha sighed, “Actually, I was a troublemaker as a kid. I had previously been shelved because I spoke too bluntly and contradicted the director.”
It was evening, and the sun was setting outside the window. The rosy clouds illuminated Xiao Cha’s side face, highlighting his tall nose bridge and warm lips, which were particularly clear.
Zhong Chai’s heart skipped a beat, “In fact, this is not your personality, is it?”
Xiao Cha: “What?”
Zhong Chai: “In reality, you are not so smooth and slick, or gentle and considerate. All of this is only to hide yourself, right?”
Xiao Cha shook his head and smiled, “You’re both correct and incorrect. At my job, I’m smooth and slick, but for you, I’m gentle and considerate. I’m not deliberately hiding anything.”
Zhong Chai was touched and reached out to take Xiao Cha’s hand: “Xiao Cha, please be yourself in front of me from now on. Don’t have any burdens, and don’t deliberately make any changes just to accommodate me… I’ll be good to you no matter what.”
“Alright, I promise,” Xiao Cha said as he smiled and moved in for a kiss on his brow.
