Mist Shenshen is pregnant, but she seems to always forget this fact, prompting Ji Shaoli to gently remind her, "Don't get excited, don't get excited. You're going to be a mother."
Mist Shenshen originally wanted to scold Jian Yunong for already working and not thinking about things; otherwise, she'd just be a giant baby who never grows up. However, she was interrupted by Ji Shaoli's words, and her anger quickly shifted towards him. "Becoming a mom? When did I say I wanted to be a mom?"
Ji Shaoli's expression darkened. Could it be that she was still considering getting rid of the child?
"The baby in your belly has already developed a heart. If you..." Before continuing, Ji Shaoli raised his hand to cover Mist Shenshen's belly, as if shielding the baby’s ears from such words that shouldn't be heard. "Right now, no doctor in Nancheng dares to perform surgery on you. It doesn't matter who you find; I will make sure their hospital suffers."
Mist Shenshen gritted her teeth. "Are you threatening me?"
She was not someone who would easily be intimidated.
Ji Shaoli quickly softened his tone to soothe her. "The baby already has a heart. If you don't want him, that's killing a life. You care for the stray cats and dogs on the street; can't you feel pity for our child?"
Using the word "pity," he genuinely lowered himself to coax Mist Shenshen, a woman with strong opinions.
"This child is mine and has nothing to do with you!" Mist Shenshen coldly replied, pulling away from his hand and sitting cross-legged on the sofa, leaving Ji Shaoli standing there dejectedly, looking at her with pleading eyes.
Mist Shenshen didn't want to pay attention to Ji Shaoli. This child was an unexpected surprise; she knew it was definitely his scheme that led her to become pregnant despite taking precautions.
Men can sometimes be quite ridiculous; unable to keep a woman's heart, they resort to using a child to hold onto her! It must be said that this method is truly pathetic.
Did he really think she was some antique woman from the last century who would have to stay home raising children after having one, revolving around her husband and household chores?
Ji Shaoli showed great disrespect towards the child and an immense lack of respect for her.
She still had her own life plans. She had finally climbed up to a high position in the hotel industry during this critical period of career growth; this child was truly ill-timed.
However, due to Ji Shaoli diverting some of her anger, Mist Shenshen's tone also calmed down considerably. Meanwhile, Jian Yunong remained quietly listening on the other end of the phone as they argued.
Mist Shenshen thought to herself again how much she disliked Ji Shaoli. What right did he have to lecture her? He really didn't treat her like an outsider. How could her relationship with Jian Yunong possibly end over a few harsh words?
"You need to give me a reasonable explanation. Why don't you want to work as a secretary anymore? I haven't been away from the company for even a month, and you've suddenly stopped going to work without a word. If you're going to be so stubborn and think you can do whatever you want, then I won't care about you anymore. Go ahead and be free."
Jian Yunong didn't know how to respond, falling into silence. "Aunt, I've been feeling a bit unwell lately, which is why I haven't gone to the company."
"Sick? What kind of illness?" Mist Shenshen who had been lying down immediately sat up straight.
Jian Yunong had panda blood, a rare blood type, so if she caught something, it would be more troublesome than for ordinary people.
Her aunt was sharp-tongued but soft-hearted, and Jian Yunong felt warm inside. "It's just a minor cold or something. But Huo Jincheng wouldn't let me go to work and insisted I rest at home. Later, seeing that I was cooped up at home and almost going moldy, he took me out for a trip."
Mist Shenshen pretended not to care and asked, "Then why did he come back alone, leaving you there?" "He was busy with work," Jian Yunong said, fearing her aunt would suspect something. If she found out that she had gotten angry with Huo Jincheng, she would probably blow up again. "I actually had fun by myself; I went out every day and met all sorts of people, checking out handsome guys and pretty girls."
Mist Shenshen was lost in thought, habitually overthinking things when faced with problems. She couldn't help but wonder if Huo Jincheng was doing it on purpose while responding verbally, "Foreign handsome guys are indeed eye-catching; I want to see more of them."
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt a shadow loom over her. Ji Shaoli's expression was quite unpleasant as he pointed at her forcefully. Even without saying a word, Mist Shenshen knew what he was about to say.
A man with such a small mind.
It was a fact that foreign men were good-looking; the racial advantage was there. She could be accused of being infatuated with foreigners, but ever since being hurt by Ji Shaoli, Mist Shenshen had wanted to find a foreign boyfriend. Unfortunately, now that she was pregnant, it couldn't stop her.
The main issue was that Ji Shaoli was too controlling; he seemed eager to have someone watch her 24/7. He always wanted to keep track of her movements, making it hard for her to breathe.
So whenever Mist Shenshen saw Ji Shaoli, she couldn't help but show him a sour face. Yet this man seemed oblivious to her feelings and appeared even more frequently than before.
Rolling her eyes at Ji Shaoli, Mist Shenshen continued, "It's nice to look at handsome guys; it would be even better if I could find a foreign handsome guy."
Unable to hold back any longer, Ji Shaoli reached out and pinched Mist Shenshen's cheek. "Is this how you act as an aunt? Don't lead Jian Yunong astray. Huo Jincheng is not someone to mess with."
"Slap," Mist Shenshen swatted his hand away and signaled him with her eyes to leave!
Jian Yunong was also laughing on the other end of the phone, "Auntie, you can't say that in front of Shaoli, that's just too harsh! Let's talk about it privately."
Mist Shenshen smirked, "I want to be harsh. Why should I say it privately? I have the right to express my feelings freely without hiding from anyone. I not only want to see foreign handsome guys, but I also want to sleep..."
Beep beep beep, the call was abruptly hung up, followed by a mechanical busy tone.
Jian Yunong was startled and immediately redialed.
It wasn't until five minutes later that the call connected, but it was Ji Shaoli who answered.
"Nong Nong, don't listen to your aunt. She's just experiencing pre-marital anxiety and might say some unpleasant things."
Jian Yunong replied seriously, "I don't think it's unpleasant at all; I think Auntie is right."
Ji Shaoli fell silent for a moment before speaking seriously, "Your thoughts are very dangerous."
"Brother-in-law, you need to treat Auntie well. You should be the best person in the world to her, even better than she is to herself; only then will she fully accept you. Moreover, Auntie is not like me; she has her own life plans and knows very clearly what she wants and doesn't want. She is also very talented and capable—she stands shoulder to shoulder with men. If you really want to marry her, I have a small piece of advice that might seem a bit immature. Do you want to hear it?"
It turned out that Jian Yunong, who had always been seen as a child, also had a mature side. Ji Shaoli said earnestly, "You are her niece; of course, I want to hear what her closest relative thinks."
