"Lin Ling asked for a leave of absence. Don't worry, I'm not in a hurry." Ye Zimo also sat up, taking her in her arms and gently persuading her.
"This is not good! Last time, because of this, this time … It's all because of you, you big scoundrel! " Ye Zimo laughed heartily and hugged her even tighter, scaring her, "Just stay home and rest for the day, otherwise I'll come back tonight."
This trick worked. Xia Yihan agreed, but added, "I can rest at home today, but you can't disturb me. I'll work at home."
Ye Zimo nodded. It was Friday, and Saturday was the second day. Xia Yihan stayed at home for the weekend before Soong Wanting left.
As long as she left, as long as Xia Yihan didn't see her, she would be pregnant and have children. Even if Xia Yihan heard it from others later, Ye Zimo could tell her that it was all just a rumor.
Especially after Soong Wanting had given birth and returned to Dongjiang River, the matter of having children could be said to be even more of a rumor.
After having dinner with Xia Yihan, Ye Zimo went to work in the study room. He instructed the butler to send Liu Xiaojiao out to settle some matters in the next few days.
The butler did not ask him why Liu Xiaojiao was the special one, but he could more or less guess why.
He remembered something happened to Xia Yihan and Hai Zhixuan suddenly entered the villa. He was afraid that Hai Zhixuan's men were here. Also, the last time Liu Xiaojiao walked and kicked a potted plant, Ye Zimo didn't blame him at all, which was also very unusual.
The moment Liu Xiaojiao left the Ye Family Villa, she reported to President Zhong that she was sent out by Ye Zimo.
President Zhong thought he had no other choice, so he let Liu Xiaojiao expose her and told her to tell Xia Yihan about Soong Wanting's pregnancy.
This time, however, Ye Zimo was prepared for him to use this move, so she was the first to do so. Now it was even harder to achieve his goal. He sent someone to ask the nanny, who said she had passed the note on to Soong Wanting, but she was not sick.
With only one or two days left, Zhong Yuquan thought for a while and finally thought of a new method. It must be very useful as well.
"Go check on Chief of staff, Lee's family, pay particular attention to what Madame Lee is doing, and report her movements to me at any time." President Zhong ordered his subordinates.
"Yes, Guild Leader. I'll go do it immediately."
Ever since Zhao Wenying had adopted her daughter, she had wholeheartedly pounced on her daughter. Even if Xia Yihan didn't come, she would study the recipes for the dishes, hoping to cook them for them the next time they came.
There was no especially large comprehensive supermarket next to the Lee Family Main Residence, and the materials she needed were very particular. Since she wanted to buy raw materials on Saturday, the driver took her to the biggest supermarket in the city.
Naturally, her actions were quickly known to President Zhong.
As she was picking out the salad dressing, she heard someone say, "Hello, Madame Lee! We, President Zhong, would like to invite you to have a chat with him. "
Zhao Wenying was stunned for a moment, then smiled to the approaching person and politely said, "I'm sorry, I don't want to go. Please tell President Zhong that it's not convenient for us to meet each other, and there's no need."
It was one of President Zhong's trusted aides. After hearing her reply, he did not easily leave and emphasized, "We, President Zhong said that you will be interested. It concerns your daughter, so you should go."
The word 'daughter' had finally moved Zhao Wenying. She furrowed her brows for a moment before silently putting down the salad dressing in her hand.
"Madame Lee, please!" President Zhong's subordinate respectfully made a gesture of invitation and Zhao Wenying slowly caught up with him.
President Zhong was not like an ordinary person. He was a big shot that appeared on the provincial news broadcasts every day, so it was not good for him to meet with others in public.
Zhao Wenying was also aware of this fact and didn't ask where the other party was taking her to.
Seeing her walk out of the supermarket, the driver who was protecting her immediately walked up and respectfully asked: "Madam, do you want me to go get the car?"
"No need. Wait for me here. I have some private matters to attend to. I'll probably be back in half an hour."
"Yes, ma'am." Zhao Wenying was absolutely free and no one would restrict her movements. Chief of staff, Lee would never suspect that she had any other intentions, even though she was much younger than Chief of staff, Lee.
Zhao Wenying got on President Zhong's car and didn't drive too far. She stopped at a residential district and followed the man into the unit. At the door of the first floor, the man knocked on the door and President Zhong's deep voice came from inside.
"Come in!"
"Madame Lee, please!" President Zhong's subordinate opened the door and Zhao Wenying slowly walked into the room with her head held high.
President Zhong didn't want others to know that he was here, so the heavy bed curtains were closed tightly. However, the lights were on, so the room didn't look too dark.
How many years had it been since he had seen a woman he dreamt of alone?
Yes, in truth, he couldn't forget her. He couldn't forget this gentle, intelligent, and beautiful woman.
If she hadn't been married to Chief of staff, Lee, whose status was higher than his, if she had been the wife of an ordinary person, he would have tried to control her husband and then control her so that she could continue to be his woman.
Now, he didn't dare to cross over.
He was able to see his daughter alone today, while he was doing something big for her, and his eyes were fixed on her with some difficulty.
Zhao Wenying was still the same Zhao Wenying. She was even more beautiful and charming than when she was younger.
Her skin was as smooth and smooth as it had been when she was young, and her eyes were more flirtatious than they had been then.
President Zhong had seen quite a few beauties, but none of them had ever been as breathtaking as Zhao Wenying, who was over forty years old.
Compared to President Zhong's pleasure when he saw Zhao Wenying, Zhao Wenying didn't feel happy at all when she saw him. On the contrary, she was filled with disgust at this meeting. She even doubted why she fell in love with such a liar when she was young.
Later on, she had heard of his deeds, and she did not approve of a man who would do anything for power.
"What do you want to say? Tell me as soon as possible. I don't think that your wife will be happy if we meet again." Zhao Wenying stopped a few steps away from him and stopped.
"Wenying!" President Zhong called her, and he realized that when he called her name, his voice was a little shaky.
It turned out that this woman still had so much influence over him. How incredible was this?
"Please call me Madame Lee, President Zhong." Zhao Wenying reminded her coldly.
President Zhong smiled bitterly and said: "Do you really hate me that much? It's just the two of us here, and neither of us wants me to call you by your name? You know what? "I've lived for so many years, yet my heart …"
Zhao Wenying cut him off with a straight face, "President Zhong, I thought you didn't call me here to reminisce about the past, and I don't have any hatred between us. To me, everything that happened before I met Lee Mingjun is already gone. "
"How can it not exist? We children have it! How can it not exist? " President Zhong suddenly got excited and stood up, walking towards Zhao Wenying.
His goal was to shoulder the responsibility of the world and not allow the world to do the same to him.
He told himself that he could forget Zhao Wenying and not take her seriously. But she had been his woman. She should have stayed with him all her life, never forgotten him.
"Xia Yihan is my daughter, Lee Mingjun's and my daughter. It has nothing to do with you." Zhao Wenying's attitude was still cold. President Zhong took two steps forward while she took two steps back, maintaining a certain distance between them.
President Zhong did not continue walking forward, but stopped and coldly snorted. He asked her: "Is it okay? Twenty-three years ago, she was in bed with you. Can you deny that? "Don't you remember how passionate you and I were in bed when you said you loved me?"
Zhao Wenying's face instantly flushed red. She was unable to find the words to answer when she heard his words.
He remembered that she was shy like this. Even after twenty years, her bashful look still made his blood boil.
If she wasn't Chief of staff, Lee's woman, he would have pushed her down on the sofa not far away from them.
He resisted the urge to have her again, but did not look away from her flushed face.
Zhao Wenying took a few deep breaths and finally found the words to respond.
"Zhong Yuquan, please behave yourself!"
"When I face you, I don't have the means to act with dignity. Wenying, I still like you that much." "Say, if only …"
"Do you want to tell my husband these things?" President Zhong took another step forward. Zhao Wenying asked and he stopped helplessly.
No! A man must be able to endure and restrain himself. Only when Zhong Yuquan convinced himself like this did he slowly suppress the fire that was burning in his heart.
She was indeed not the easily tricked woman from her youth. Her current identity did not allow him to covet her.
Moreover, he had something important to say on this trip, so he couldn't let her tempt him into forgetting something important.
"Sit down, Wenying. Let's talk about our daughter." President Zhong turned around and went back to where he was sitting before.
"There's no need to sit, make it short."
President Zhong sighed and said helplessly: "I don't want to do anything. Since you're here, why don't you sit down a little longer and listen to what I have to say?"
"I don't want to. If it wasn't for my daughter, I wouldn't want to see you for the rest of my life. There's no need to." Zhao Wenying was very direct. She didn't want to be polite and couldn't miss someone who had cheated her, causing her to become pregnant at the age of 20 and then suffering from postpartum depression.
"Well, Wenying, whatever you think of me. It's fine if you think I'm Chen Shimei or a shameless swindler. You can think of me as heartless, but I've always had you in my heart. Ever since I knew Yihan was my daughter, I felt a little more care for her. I called you here today to tell you something. It is indeed not a good thing for us to have you prepare your mind. "
"If you want to say it, then say it all at once. Stop fooling around." Zhao Wenying frowned, then Zhong Yuquan continued, "It's Ye Zimo, you know about his engagement with Soong Wanting previously right? "You don't come to Dongjiang River often, and you might not even know who Soong Wanting is. That's Vice President Soong's daughter."
At this point, Zhong Yuquan paused for a moment. Zhao Wenying didn't continue urging him, she just waited for him to continue.
"Last time at Soong's birthday party, the two of them cancelled their engagement. We all thought that those two were fine, but who would have thought that Soong Wanting didn't give up at all. "She went abroad for almost half a year, and when she came back, she had a big belly. She had Ye Zimo's child!"
"What?" Zhao Wenying's voice rose a few notches as she was stunned by the sudden news.
Her face turned pale in an instant. President Zhong was a bit pained, but at the same time, he was proud of his accurate judgement.
He wanted to take the opportunity to comfort Zhao Wenying. She sat down on the sofa beside him and took several deep breaths to calm herself down.
"Is this news accurate? How did you know? " Even after she calmed down, she was still anxious.
This matter was related to her daughter's well-being. How could she not be anxious?
"Didn't I confirm that? Can I tell you something that makes you worry? I told you, you and your daughter are my concern. "I just found out for the past two days and I've been rushing to find an opportunity to tell you."
"How are things now? Did Ye Zimo know? Yihan definitely doesn't know. Yesterday, they were eating at my place, so I didn't see any problems with the two of them. "
Seeing how anxious Zhao Wenying was, President Zhong thought he would intervene.
If she was worried, then he wasn't.
"It's a coincidence, I went to see Soong Wanting at home the day before yesterday when I went to Soong Family. "They also didn't know about my relationship with Yihan and didn't hide it from me. They said that the child in her womb was Ye Zimo's."
"Did you ask them what they were going to do?" At this moment, Zhao Wenying was only concerned about whether they would affect her daughter. As for whether President Zhong would really go to Vice President Soong's home, she didn't have the time to think about it.
"You silly woman, what else can you do? If she doesn't want this child and doesn't want to use it to break the two of them apart, why would she get pregnant? "
"So, he doesn't know that Soong Wanting is pregnant with Ye Zimo's child, does he? Do you know now? "Just what do you know? Can you tell me everything at once?" Zhao Wenying's heart was burning with anxiety. She told herself that she had to know what was going on and what was going on.
"Because Yihan is our daughter, I paid special attention to this matter. After leaving the Soong Family, I ordered some people to keep an eye on Soong Wanting. Ye Zimo sent someone to take her out and went to the hospital twice. " President Zhong said slowly.
"So that means that Ye Zimo knows about it? You went to the hospital twice, but the child is still here.
"I say, why are you still so naive? I already asked the doctor at Maternal and Child Health Hospital, that child is a boy, it's already been six months, how did he do it? Do you really think that Ye Zimo is such a lovestruck person? From the very beginning, I didn't agree to let Yihan marry him! I don't know how you became a mother, nor do you know his background, so you decided to just casually marry your daughter off to him! "
President Zhong said this in front of Zhao Wenying. He believed that Zhao Wenying would deny Ye Zimo at this moment.
Zhao Wenying-ben is a considerate person, everything from the point of view of others.
But in the face of her daughter's happiness, no mother can selflessly think from another point of view, she is more about her daughter's feelings.
Zhao Wenying did not respond to President Zhong's question. She sat quietly for a while and seemed to have spent a lot of effort to get up.
She knew that since President Zhong wanted to talk to her, it proved that he wouldn't show himself. She would solve her daughter's problem, and she would not want him to deal with it.
"Thank you for telling me this, I'm leaving. In the future, please don't bother me anymore. There is no longer a need for us to meet. The matter with my daughter also has nothing to do with you.
"Wenying!" Seeing that Zhao Wenying's graceful figure was about to disappear from his sight, and that he might never see her alone again, President Zhong couldn't help but call out, quickly getting up and chasing after her.
After hearing the news of Soong Wanting's pregnancy, Zhao Wenying forced herself to keep her spirits up. She was still somewhat absent-minded, and her steps were shaky.
President Zhong grabbed her arm, but she didn't have the strength to resist him.
"What is it? Get your hands off me! Let me go! " When Zhao Wenying shouted out those words, President Zhong's subordinate's voice came from the door: "Madam, you can't go in! The President is in there discussing matters! "
"Get out of my way!" What do you need to do now? " Yue Mulan forced the door open.
Since Zhao Wenying met with Zhong Yuquan alone, she was somewhat wary. Therefore, the door was just left ajar. Yue Mulan entered the room after pushing open the door.
0
Zhong Yuquan had already removed his hand from Zhao Wenying's arm, but the distance between the two still remained unchanged as they stood there stiffly.
"Good for you, Zhong Yuquan!" You're so amazing, and even made a place to meet her in private! " Yue Mulan glared angrily. She walked to Zhong Yuquan's side in a few steps and raised her hand to slap his face.
Zhong Yuquan did not dodge. He knew that he had to be able to hold out and endure it for now.
When that time came, she would be in the wrong.
"Pah!" With a sound, a palm hit Zhong Yuquan's face without any suspense.
Zhong Yuquan's subordinate originally wanted to come in, but when he heard the argument inside, he was afraid that the leader would lose face and so he did not dare to enter. Thus, he could only wait outside.
Zhao Wenying was stunned by Yue Mulan's rude behavior, but she quickly came back to her senses. She softly explained to Yue Mulan, "He and I didn't do anything. Calm down. Don't be angry."
