Chapter 11: Are You a Dog?

Ruo Xing twitched the corner of her mouth, “Got it, Mom.”Zhong Meilan didn't speak to her again. Her family would occasionally chat, but Qiao Ruo Xing felt like an outsider at this family gathering,...Zhong Meilan was even more insistent about Qiao Ruoxing's pregnancy and didn't notice her daughter's abnormality. She frowned and said, "You've lost blood and qi, your palace is cold and your body is weak. These tests couldn't possibly detect these issues! You won't be able to keep the baby even if you get pregnant without curing these ailments."

Qiao Ruo Xing closed her mouth.

Zhong Meilan thought she had heard right, and said again, "The second house has been getting close to the mayor's daughter recently. If this marriage goes through, if the second house gets pregnant before you, then Jingyan's situation in the company will be very difficult, after all, the old lady values the eldest son and grandson very much."

What does it have to do with her She's about to get divorced, so why would she care about Gu Jingyan's difficulties

Besides, she didn't think Gu Jingyan was worried either. He didn't want children at all.

Oh, by the way, he doesn't want to be around her kids.

“Your mother has been in a coma for so many years with no signs of waking up. Your father is not even fifty yet, so young that he might remarry in the future. At that time, will you still be able to go back to the Qiao family But the child is yours, and will also be your support in the future, Ruoxing. People should think more about themselves.”

Of course Qiao Ruoxing wouldn't naively think Zhong Meilan was acting for her own good. Everyone in the Gu family had their own agenda, and she, being part of it, was nothing more than a pawn.

"I understand, Mom."

She lowered her eyes in acquiescence, just as she always did, with a demure and submissive air. There was an air of meekness and weakness about her.

Zhong Meilan didn't say anything more, she just urged her to drink the medicine first.

Faced with no escape, Qiao Ruoxing could only clench her teeth and raise the cup, holding her breath as she swallowed.

This acting is too unconvincing! The property division in a divorce should at least be a 60/40 split!

After she finished the medicine, Gu Jingyan came in shortly.

Zhong Meilan's objective was accomplished, and this dinner gathering lost its continuation. She stood up and said, "I have a mahjong appointment with Mrs. Li this afternoon, and it's about time. You guys continue eating."

Gu Jingyang quickly got up, "I made an appointment with friends to go shopping, Mom, can you take me"

As the two escorted her out, Zhong Meilan reminded Qiao Ruoxing before leaving, "Ruoxing, remember to take your things and remember what I said."

< Qiao nodded.

After seeing them off, Gu Jingyan turned to her and asked, "What did your mother tell you"

It's nothing.

That bottle of medicine was churning in her stomach. Qiao Joxing couldn't hold back the nausea any longer, and after she spoke, she turned pale and vomited dryly.

Gu Jingyan frowned, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her to the restroom.

She vomited most of the medicine she had swallowed in the restroom. Only after she was done did she feel a bit better. As she washed her hands, she saw Gu Jingyan in the mirror.

He stood behind her, staring at her with a thoughtful expression.

As soon as she thought of her current disheveled appearance, all because of him, Qiao Ruo Xing was furious.

She smirked, "Mr. Gu has a hobby of watching others use the restroom"

Gu Jingyan raised his eyes and glanced at her, saying lightly, "It's not that I particularly like it. If you need it, I can cooperate too, after all, this isn't the first time."

Jojo Xing: "...."

She couldn't help but think back to last year's Qixi Festival. She had gotten so drunk that she dragged Gu Jingyan to the restroom in the middle of the night, making him even help her pull up her pants...

She had never done many disgraceful things in her life, but somehow Gu Jingyan remembered them all.

What breed of dog is he!

Seeing her motionless for a long time, Gu Jingyan calmly added, "Shall I help you take it off"

Qiao Xing glanced at him, "Mr. Gu, I don't think we are in a position to be saying ambiguous things right now."

Gu Jingyan twitched the corner of his lip and suddenly leaned towards her. Qiao Ruo Xing instinctively retreated, but there was nowhere to go, her lower back directly pressed against the sink.

She was trapped between the sink and Gu Jingyan, surrounded by his scent, domineering and rough.

"What are you doing" she asked, pressing her hands against his chest to stop him from getting any closer.

Gu Jingyan's gaze lingered on her lips for a second before meeting her eyes, his voice low and magnetic.

"It seems like you started this, didn't you Using those ambiguous pet names and feeding me... isn't that your way of tempting me"

Jo Jo Xing

Damn! Who gave him the confidence!

"Mr. Gu, I think you misunderstand..."

Qiao Ruoxing's eyes widened, and a dry softness lingered on her lips—Gu Jingyan had kissed her.

This was the first time Gu Jingyan had taken the initiative to kiss her. In the past, she was always the one who took the initiative in their kisses. Gu Jingyan would only cooperate with her when she teased him until he couldn't bear it anymore.

He never seemed to have the desire to actively kiss or possess her, but he did with Yao KeXin. Even when he was feverish and delirious, he would unconsciously call out "Xin Xin".

At that thought, all of his touch suddenly became unbearable.

The moment Gu Jingyan stuck his tongue in, she suddenly bit down hard. Even though Gu Jingyan dodged in time, his lips were still bitten.

A metallic taste lingered in his mouth, Gu Jingyan frowned and loosened his grip on her.

"Are you a dog"

Jo Ro Xing gritted her teeth, if she were a dog, the first one she would bite to death!

Gu Jingyan was about to say something else when his phone rang again. He picked it up and his brow furrowed. He turned to Qiao Ruo Xing and said, "Go wait in the car for me first."

After finishing, he took his phone and went out.

Jojo Star saw the note on his caller ID — Baby.

She expressionlessly pulled out a tissue and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth. In the mirror, she looked pale and pitiful.

Jo Ruo Xing originally wanted to be a little stubborn and leave by taxi, but as soon as he came out, he was frozen stiff.

When it arrived, the weather was still sunny. Now the sun was nowhere to be found, and the wind was blowing fiercely. Qiao Ruoxing was wearing thin clothes, and after walking this short distance, her hands and feet were already numb from the cold.

Zhong Meilan chose this restaurant, which is in a newly developed area. It's not very convenient to get a taxi here, so after just three seconds of hesitation, she proactively got into the car.

After about ten minutes, Gu Jingyan also got into the car.

I don't know if there were any side effects from the medicine Zhong Meilan gave her, but after vomiting, she seemed to have no energy. Soon after starting the car, she closed her eyes, looking dazed.

Just as she was about to fall asleep, a heavy object suddenly landed in her arms, jolting her awake.

She angrily wanted to ask Gu Jingyan if he was sick, but when she saw the box in her arms, she froze. She reached out and opened it.

Inside is an Hermès crocodile skin bag, the platinum edition. If she remembers correctly, the official price was two hundred and ten thousand, but the goods are very scarce, it's possible to get it for three million or more.

Gu Jingyan, what are you doing

Qiao Ruo Xing looked at him inexplicably, "What do you mean"

Gu Jingyan gave her a impatient glance. "It's a gift from a client, and I can't use it."

Lin Shu these issues! You won't be able to keep the baby even if you get pregnant without curing these ailments."Qiao Ruo Xing closed her mouth.Zhong Meilan thought she had heard right, and said again, "The...
