The child in my belly was his bargaining chip in the old man's heart, and my vague identity was his bargaining chip against his mother's forced marriage.
He may have feelings for his children and for me, but more of them are for his own good. And I, almost lost myself in his tenderness.
His words came at the right time, but they woke me up in time to understand that things that love and love are not reliable. The most important thing to do was to take care of their own personal interests.
Thinking about this, the unwillingness that was churning in my heart immediately disappeared. I replied indifferently, "The relationship between you and me has nothing to do with you. He doesn't even know that I'm your girlfriend. Rest assured."
"Really?" He gave me a dubious look, and then, quietly, probed me. "Why are you looking for him? Why would he go to his house? He never invites anyone to his house, especially young women. "
I laughed at him. "You don't think there's a shady relationship between him and me, do you? Sheng Yun, you're overthinking it. I, Xu Shubei, no matter how cheap I am, I know what's good for me.
"It's best if it is like this, otherwise, you know the consequences." He looked at me like a tiger staring at its prey, and then asked me, "However, Tai Feng has never been in contact with anyone, so why would he be willing to interact with you? "Xu Shubei, what are you planning now?"
Even if I wanted to be pregnant before marriage, with my belly on the line with him, he would have no confidence in me when it came to benefits. His distrustful words really stuck in my throat.
"I went to his house to accompany him and had a good discussion about life and ideals with him. Is that what you want to hear when you ask so many questions? " I looked at him and said sarcastically, "Yes, that's right. Not only are we together, we've unlocked countless postures. Are you happy? Are you satisfied? "
"Xu Shubei, when I'm talking to you seriously, you'd better not be joking with me!" Sheng Yun looked at me coldly. The expression on his face was extremely horrifying.
"Then what exactly do you want to ask? Do you even have to ask about my personal circle of friends? "Sheng Yun, we are just cooperating together. Even if I have your seed in me, it's still based on cooperation. Please don't cross my bottom line, otherwise …" I was furious, too, and I growled at him.
"Otherwise what?" His tone turned cold. "What would you have done otherwise? Xu Shubei, don't think you can shake me off just because you found a better springboard. "Since you're on my ship, you'd better cooperate well with me!"
"Do you believe that Xu Changsheng would not dare to touch me even if I don't cooperate with you?" I looked at him and swore, "But you, if I don't help you now, I think you know how passive your situation is. "Your old man's condition is deteriorating. Your stepmother and three sisters are all on the verge of making a move. Your father is weak, incompetent and doesn't have the slightest bit of goodwill towards you. The Board of Trustees of your company has long had second thoughts towards you …"
Before I could finish, Sheng Yun interrupted me: "Enough! Xu Shubei! Don't think you can threaten me! Even without you, no one can take Golden Age away as long as I am here! "Do you really think that I left this child behind just to …"
As he said this, he suddenly stopped speaking further. But from his words, I could already hear some clues.
I understand that women are naturally sensitive, and that dealing with men in a rational world means that once they are touched by true love, it means they will never be able to get away with it. So, I won't be drunk on his bewitching soup, won't be intoxicated by his seemingly gentle swirl.
Especially after seeing Tai Feng, I understood more clearly that the day when I bring down the Xu family was just around the corner, and I definitely couldn't let my time slip by just because I indulged in the private affairs of my children.
"The child will be raised together with you. As for my personal matters, please do not ask too many questions. As for you, I won't ask too much. " I said coldly.
"Xu Shubei, is there nothing left in your heart other than revenge?" he asked me coldly.
"Yes!" I was silent for two seconds, then looked at him with certainty.
In that instant, I felt his disappointment.
"Alright, since that's the case, you can stay here to nurture your baby. I won't disturb you again in the future, but for the sake of your child's safety, I'll put all precautions against your travel safety." Sheng Yun said.
"No, I'll go back to my old residence tomorrow. That place has already been renovated, so I don't want to stay here anymore to avoid being bothered by other things." I replied coldly.
"Alright!" He looked at me, then asked me abruptly, "Do you have any requests? If you have something to say, just say it. "
"What kind of request?" I asked in surprise, not quite understanding what he meant.
"Your unwed child was born to me. It delayed your youth and it also delayed your future path. If you need it, I can give you the appropriate compensation. he said slowly, his eyes especially cold.
For a moment, the atmosphere between us was tense again. It turns out, no matter how intimate we used to be, how much like love. It was never love between us, never.
"No need, since I intend to give birth to this child, I will bear the consequences. I only hope that when I attack the Xu family in the future, you can help me. Of course, if you don't want to, I won't force you. I thank you for saving my life! " My tone was just as cold.
He looked at me, and I at him, and I wondered if we were a couple about to be parents, but only a couple who were selfish enough to use their children as a bargaining chip.
While I despised myself, my heart was filled with a kind of inexplicable heartache. I didn't know if it was because of my guilt towards my child or something else.
"Since I let you on my ship, I will naturally spare no effort in your matters! When Golden Age's situation stabilizes, I will cancel all cooperation with the Xu family. However, for the time being, I am unable to do so. " He said coldly, and suddenly his tone softened a little. "Apart from this, do you have any other requests? House, car, jewelry... If you ask, I will do my best to satisfy you. "
"If there's a requirement, then there's one …" Suddenly, something went wrong with my brain. I said, "While I can't satisfy you, it's best not to have other women."
He would never have thought that I would say such a thing. He immediately burst out laughing. The atmosphere suddenly eased up a bit as everyone burst into laughter.
"I'm not a stallion and I don't have that strong desire. But why are you worried about this? Didn't you say that we are purely in a relationship of interest? " Sheng Yun looked at me, then suddenly reached his hand to my chest.
Startled, I hastily took two steps back. "What?" "You're still playing tricks on me!
"Since he has made such a request, it must be because he has his own thoughts. "If you want, while I'm here, I can satisfy you." Sheng Yun laughed. His gaze suddenly became somewhat flirtatious. He stared at my slightly opened collar and said, "It seems to have grown quite a bit. I've been too busy lately and haven't had the time to experience it properly …" I heard that women who get pregnant smell the most. "
"When you're talking about such an important matter, please don't just randomly send a 'ao' message." I quickly pulled at the collar of my shirt. Who knew that I had used too much strength to force the buttons on my shirt to pop open. The two lumps of flesh that were originally so crowded that I didn't want them anymore suddenly jumped out like a rabbit.
What a shame.
"While saying that I won't take them, I'll buy them for you." Xu Shubei, it's been a long time since you've had such a flirtatious day. Since that's the case, I'll grant you your wish. " Sheng Yun wasn't reserved at all.
"Let me ask you a question. Tell me the truth." I asked, resisting.
"Ask." He had no time to answer me, and he began to move from hand to hand, wishing he could swallow me alive.
"How many women am I to you?" I asked, taking advantage of his passionate kiss.
"Definitely not the last one." He avoided my words.
I was a little angry from his perfunctory reply. I pushed his head away and hid to the side. "If you don't answer me, then don't expect me to work so hard today. As you know, the difference between my effort and mine is like the difference between heaven and earth. "
He spent more time with me after we were pregnant than before, but since we were both novices and had no experience as parents, there were always a lot of scruples about pregnancy, and he was depressed about it for a long time. Even if he did get away with it, I was still scared.
It's been a long time since we've had the courage to do what we used to do …
He looked at me, hesitated, and finally said, in a slurred voice, "The second." "Yes," I said.
Before I could react, he sat down on the sofa and pressed my head down. He growled, "It's time for you to show off …"
