Huo Jincheng handed the room card to Mist Shenshen, "Take a good rest these days."
Mist Shenshen nodded, "By the way, Mr. Huo, you didn't tell Little Fool about this, right? She's pregnant, and I'm afraid she'll overthink things and just worry unnecessarily. But she’s so scatterbrained that she probably won't think of this."
Mist Shenshen had informed Huo Jincheng in advance about taking on this matter, asking him not to let Jian Yunong know.
Huo Jincheng lowered his gaze, "She already knows."
Mist Shenshen's eyes widened in surprise.
"By the way, you know Ji Shaoli, right?"
Mist Shenshen showed a moment of discomfort and shook her head, "I don't know him."
Huo Jincheng noticed the change in Mist Shenshen's expression but did not expose her lie.
"You will be released early because he intervened."
Mist Shenshen gritted her teeth secretly, "Should I go back in then?"
Huo Jincheng: "..."
Finally, he understood where Jian Yunong's foolishness came from.
It turned out to be hereditary.
Before the car started, Huo Jincheng said something meaningful to her, "You and Jian Yunong really are relatives..."
"How can you insult people!" Mist Shenshen realized what he meant and raised her middle finger at the road that had long disappeared.
When Jian Yunong arrived in A City, it was already late at night.
As soon as she got off the bus, it started pouring rain in A City.
She had no choice but to find a guesthouse nearby to stay for the night.
After settling everything, she realized that her phone was missing when she prepared to check it before sleeping.
Mist Shenshen had just bought it for her and had said that if she lost it again, she shouldn't come home.
Sure enough, it was lost again within three months.
Forget it, her aunt should not be let out so early, Jian Yunong thought mischievously.
Once she handled her matters for the next day, she would immediately go buy an identical phone to avoid getting her head blown off by Mist Shenshen later.
The next day at noon, Jian Yunong waited at the agreed restaurant.
The Jian family liked to make a grand entrance, enjoyed being late, and loved making others wait. Jian Yunong was already used to it.
Half an hour passed, and just as Jian Yunong was starting to feel restless, a portly man sat down across from her.
"Excuse me, this seat is taken."
Jian Yunong thought he had made a mistake in sitting there.
"You are Jian Yunong, right?"
A strange man stared at Jian Yunong, "I look even more beautiful in person than in the photos."
Jian Yunong ignored his disgusting gaze. "Speak up, did the Jian Family promise you something? Are you asking me to be your mistress this time? Or is it something else? Besides these, the Jian Family can't come up with anything new, right?"
"Why say such unpleasant things? Why would I force you to be a mistress? I invited you here for a blind date!"
"Hmph..."
Jian Yunong felt like a fool. Knowing that the Jian Family might not have good intentions, she still jumped right in.
"You want to marry me?"
"Yes." The man nodded, his eyes gleaming with greed.
"How much does the Jian Family want from you?"
"Not much, just a million as a bride price. I can afford it."
A million...
Jian Yunong laughed in anger at that number. If she remembered correctly, the portion of inheritance that should belong to her was worth much more than a million. Had they squandered it so quickly to fill the company's financial black hole?
"They all say you're a filial person. As long as you agree, your mother can be buried with your father and laid to rest in the ancestral grave."
So, they were sure she would yield?
Jian Yunong remained silent as the man across from her picked up his phone and handed it to her.
"This is your last chance. You messed up with Yi Nansheng; I won't blame you for that. This time, you must obey. Jian Yunong, your reputation is in shambles now. If someone is willing to marry you, you should be grateful."
The voice of the head of the Jian Family came through the receiver.
"Understood."
Jian Yunong let out a cold laugh.
After hanging up, she put on a smile. "Actually, marrying me isn't a loss for you. After all, it's buy one get one free."
"Buy one get one free? Did your cousin Jian Dan change her mind and agree to marry me?"
So it turned out that Jian Dan was unwilling and they were using her as a substitute?
Jian Yunong shook her head, her voice soft and innocent. "I have a baby in my belly. You see, as soon as I step through the door, you can become a dad. Isn't that great?"
The Jian Family
The scene judging Jian Yunong.
"Jian Yunong, you unfilial descendant! Whose child is in your belly?"
"Pregnant out of wedlock, what a disgrace to your mother!"
"This kind of illegitimate child cannot be born!"
Jian Yunong stood in the living room of the Jian Family, everyone else was seated, and she was the only one standing.
"I am no longer a member of the Jian Family. You all forgot that you chased me away last time?" A mocking smile appeared on her face. "Didn't you want me to go on blind dates? I did go. Is it my fault that the other party refused to be a dad?"
Jian Yunong's Uncle issued a dark command, "Bring out the family law!"
"You can't change the fact that I'm pregnant, even if you want to kill me." Jian Yunong protected her belly and said, "If you have the guts, kill me here today."
"You little brat, do you think we won't dare to touch you?"
Someone had already stepped forward and pinned Jian Yunong to the ground.
Struggling was useless; her strength was no match for two grown men holding her down.
"Get rid of this child!"
"You're eating our food and living in our house, yet you dare to disobey us and give birth to an unknown child! Since your last name is Jian, you must take responsibility for the future of the Jian Family!"
"It's not easy to find someone who likes you. The man just lost his wife, and marrying him is still a step up!"
The whip cracked again and again, striking Jian Yunong's legs and back, burning like fire deep into her bones.
"Such a good opportunity, why don't you let your own daughter take it!"
Jian Yunong gritted her teeth and forced out a cold laugh. "After my dad died, when did I ever spend a dime of the Jian Family's money? You all are spending my father's hard-earned money and using my mother's dowry, yet now you want to force their daughter to death! Why don't you go die instead? Are you afraid of going to hell?"
"How dare you! This little beast actually curses her elders to death!"
The sound of the whip striking flesh grew more frantic.
Jian Yunong was in so much pain she couldn't speak.
Her uncle was sweating profusely before he tossed the whip aside. "Take her to the hospital. If she's pregnant, get rid of it! Then send her to that Boss Zhang!"
At that moment, the butler rushed in.
“Jian Yunong's aunt has arrived!”
“What does it matter if she’s here? She comes, and I’ll still fight! The Fog Family has raised these unruly women!”
“No, no… there’s another one…”
As soon as the words fell, Mist Shenshen rushed in like a gust of wind.
She immediately saw Jian Yunong lying on the ground, covered in wounds.
She was shocked.
She never expected to see such a scene.
Mist Shenshen stumbled over, wanting to pick up Jian Yunong, but her strength was not enough. She was so anxious that tears streamed down her face.
At that moment, a pair of strong hands reached out from behind her and easily lifted Jian Yunong up.
“Mr. Huo…”
Mist Shenshen looked at Huo Jincheng with tear-filled eyes.
Huo Jincheng's expression was calm, revealing no signs of anger or joy. His gaze swept over Jian Yunong's battered wounds before landing on Jian Yunong's Uncle.
The man fell silent, but an air of forbidding emanated from him.
Jian Yunong's Uncle felt a bit intimidated by his stare, but then he thought that this was the Jian Family. If he showed weakness in front of an outsider, where would the family head's authority be?
“Mist Shenshen, what are you bringing a wild man to the Jian Family for? This is our family matter! It’s not something you outsiders can interfere with!”
Mist Shenshen was amused by the stupidity of the Jian Family, "Outsiders? This is Jian Yunong's husband!"
The Jian Family displayed disdain on their faces, "This is your Fog Family's bloodline; don't women need their parents' consent to marry?"
"That's really funny. What kind of parents are you?"
Mist Shenshen looked at Jian Yunong with concern, "Let's go."
Huo Jincheng nodded gently, crossing his long legs as he steadily held Jian Yunong and got into the car.
"Aye."
Huo Jincheng softly called his assistant's name.
"You stay behind to handle the follow-up."
"Yes."
The assistant nodded solemnly.
"Don't let anyone who acted today get away, whether they participated or not."
Huo Jincheng said casually.
The bloodthirst in his tone made Mist Shenshen shiver inwardly.
The car quickly arrived at the nearest hospital.
When they got out, medical staff were already waiting at the entrance.
They were preparing to carry Jian Yunong down when Huo Jincheng stopped them.
He personally picked Jian Yunong up and placed her on the lounge chair.
"It's nothing. I think that girl just fainted for a moment. It's just some bruises." While waiting at the door, Mist Shenshen couldn't help but make conversation to lighten the mood. "My brother-in-law has spoiled her since she was little, never daring to raise his voice at her. Maybe he was just scared this time."
Huo Jincheng remained silent.
Mist Shenshen felt that her previous comments were somewhat unnecessary.
Huo Jincheng didn't marry Jian Yunong because he was in love with her; they were forced into marriage, so where could there be any feelings? It was already good enough that Huo Jincheng was willing to look for this runaway Little Fool!
"The patient probably fainted due to low blood sugar. The bruises will take some time to heal, but applying medicine will help them recover gradually."
The doctor came out of the ward, and the result made Mist Shenshen breathe a sigh of relief.
She immediately rushed inside.
Huo Jincheng lagged a few steps behind.
"Doctor, she is pregnant, so please be extra careful with the medication."
The doctor exclaimed in surprise, his expression showing astonishment.
*
Jian Yunong woke up from the pain.
She could feel someone using something to clean the wounds on her back.
"Take it easy..." she couldn't help but cry out.
"Are you afraid of pain now? Why didn't you think about the consequences when you came back alone to the Jian Family?" a familiar voice of Mist Shenshen rang out.
Jian Yunong was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly turned over to face Mist Shenshen.
"Auntie!"
"You scared me to death! You finally came out!"
"Are you okay?"
Mist Shenshen's eyes turned red for a moment; this Little Fool was so concerned about her even in such a state! The next second, she forcefully pushed her back onto the bed.
"What are you moving around for? You're never someone who puts my mind at ease! What could possibly happen to me?"
