Night Fire Lingering

Chapter 290 Do you think being a coward will make me let you go?

"His mother came again yesterday," Luo Beiqing said softly, supported by her best friend.

Wen Yan had no good impression of He Tingchuan's mother, Zhong Xue. When Luo Beiqing and He Tingchuan were married, Zhong Xue protected and even encouraged her son to openly keep a mistress. Now that Luo Beiqing and He Tingchuan were divorced, she was still harassing her former daughter-in-law!

"What did you say?"

"Trying to snatch the child?" Luo Beiqing's tone was cold, his gaze resolute.

The child is hers, and she will never allow it to become a tool for Zhong Xue and He Tingchuan to fight for power within the family!

He Tingchuan knew Luo Beiqing was angry, so he followed behind her with her medical report file, as quiet as a well-behaved pretty boy—if you ignored his domineering aura.

"Wen Zhizhi, let's go home." Gu Yanci put his arm around Wen Yan's waist and pulled her towards him.

"Hey!" Wen Yan glared at him.

In the instant a gap appeared between Wen Yan and Luo Beiqing, He Tingchuan naturally took Wen Yan's original spot and stood next to Luo Beiqing.

“We cooked bird’s nest porridge at home, and it’s still warm when I get back,” He Tingchuan said.

Luo Beiqing's lips twitched, as if she wanted to say something, but she held back. After two seconds, she couldn't help but say, "He Tingchuan, that's my home!"

The implication is, "This is my house, so stop being so familiar and get out of here!"

“I know.” He Tingchuan opened the car door for Luo Beiqing. “I like living under someone else’s roof.”

Wen Yan: "?"

No, when did Young Master He become so shameless?

Where's your shamelessness?

Wen Yan was shocked, but the next moment Gu Yanci grabbed her by the back of her neck and turned her head back: "Still looking?"

Wen Yan saw Luo Bei get into He Tingchuan's car and gave her a reassuring look before looking away.

"You men all wear the same pair of pants!" Wen Yan snorted.

Gu Yanci shoved Wen Yan into the passenger seat of the Cullinan and asked through gritted teeth, "What about you and Luo Beiqing? Wen Zhizhi, when are you going to put me in front of you?"

Wen Yan looked at him in confusion, not understanding what he meant.

Gu Yanci patiently reprimanded her: "You were so engrossed in your studies before that you ignored me. Now that you're on vacation, you spend all your time with other women."

"That's Beiqing."

It wasn't any other woman.

Seeing the man's expression that seemed to say, "Listen to what the hell you're saying," Wen Yan swallowed the rest of her sentence, belatedly realizing she felt a little guilty.

"What are you doing, rolling your eyes like that?" Gu Yanci asked, not letting her off the hook because she was embarrassed after realizing she was in the wrong.

Wen Yan explained softly, "Bei Qing is pregnant."

"Isn't the child's father here?"

"Just a biological father."

The implication is that, who knows if the child will have a second father in the future!

Gu Yanci clicked his tongue, pinched Wen Yan's chin, and lifted her face to examine her: "Wen Zhizhi, are you thinking of finding a second spring for Luo Beiqing? Do you think men are just for playing around?"

Wen Yan initially found Gu Yanci's behavior inexplicable, but in a flash she realized that Gu Yanci was projecting his own feelings onto her, and quickly coaxed, "Why are you so agitated? It's not like I'm looking for a second spring."

She suddenly giggled, reached out and hooked her arm around the man's neck, tilting her head and saying, "Young Master Gu, as long as you perform well, your position is still very secure!"

Gu Yanci scoffed disdainfully, pulled a hand off his neck, and pressed it down to his body!

Wen Yan: "!"

Gu Yanci: "You're so hungry you've lost all your status, Mrs. Gu."

Cullinan drove very fast all the way from the hospital back to Longyu Bay.

Wen Yan looked at the man in the driver's seat and knew that he was preoccupied with something shameful.

"Don't you have to go to the company?"

"hungry."

The man is sulking.

Wen Yan blinked, feeling that President Gu shouldn't be so dissolute and was sorry to Old Master Gu and Old Madam Gu, so she advised, "I'm not going to run away, you go to work first."

Gu Yanci quickly glanced at the woman in the passenger seat: "Wen Zhizhi, what are you chickening out for?"

"..."

"You think I'll let you go just because you're a coward?"

He was clearly unhappy, and men who bring their emotions into bed tend to be exceptionally ruthless!

Ruthless in methods, ruthless in heart!

How could this man be jealous of Bei Qingfei?

I just got home when the property management delivered a same-city package.

Wen Yan lowered her head to change her shoes, pondering how to calm the man down, and didn't notice that Gu Yanci had opened the package.

"Gu Yanci, I was wrong. You should go to work first—"

"You're willing to let me go to work?"

Wen Yan looked up in confusion and saw the man raise his eyebrows slightly, a white lace bunny outfit hanging from his fingertip, right in front of her.

Wen Yan: "..."

...Luo Beiqing delivered the gift to my home!
