He didn’t even mind that she had been with another man and had taken the initiative to reconcile, so how dare she refuse?!
Especially since the new man she had attached herself to was actually from the Fu family, the wealthiest in Shen City!
No man would want to see the woman he had discarded find a man better than himself.
Nan Sheng was deliberately slapping him in the face!
For now, he would swallow his anger. Once they were married, he would teach her a lesson!
“Nan Sheng, if you won’t marry me, who do you plan to marry? Fu Moyan?” Shen Linjiang sneered, his eyes filled with mockery.
“You must know what kind of reputation Second Master Fu has? A man like him only cares about profit—ruthless, cold-hearted, and merciless. Even if you’ve registered your marriage, it’s only for the child in your womb. Once the child is born, he’ll turn on you without a second thought. What will you do then?”
Nan Sheng’s gaze sharpened, finally willing to look directly at Shen Linjiang.
Thinking she was scared, Shen Linjiang was about to press his advantage and convince Nan Sheng that he could help her.
A cold breeze brushed the back of his neck, sending an involuntary shiver down his spine.
“You know I’m ruthless, cold-hearted, and merciless, yet you still dare to try and steal my woman?”
The man’s voice was deep and icy, each word striking Shen Linjiang’s skull like frozen steel.
Shen Linjiang’s face paled, his body stiffened, and his breath caught in his throat.
He slowly turned around and met Fu Moyan’s dark, profound eyes.
Fu Moyan stood tall and robust, with a straight back and long legs, half a head taller than Shen Linjiang.
His condescending gaze was overwhelmingly oppressive.
With his arrival, the temperature around them seemed to drop by several degrees.
“Sec… Second Master! What brings you here?” Shen Linjiang forced a smile uglier than crying.
He had clearly investigated—today, Nan Sheng had come to the hospital alone for her check-up.
How could Second Master Fu suddenly appear?!
Although the Shen family was based in Hong Kong, Shen Linjiang had settled in Shen City after coming of age and had heard of Second Master Fu’s fearsome reputation.
That was why the mere sound of his voice had terrified him.
If he hadn’t come, how would he have known someone was trying to steal his woman?
Fu Moyan didn’t even bother to lift his eyelids. “Xiao Yun, break his legs and throw him out!”
Shen Linjiang hadn’t expected Fu Moyan to be so brutal—without a word, he demanded both his legs!
“Wait!” Nan Sheng called out softly.
Xiao Yun, who was about to act, paused in surprise. Fu Moyan’s face darkened, his expression terrifyingly grim.
But Shen Linjiang’s eyes lit up as if he had found a lifeline. “Xiao Sheng, please say something for me! I came to discuss something with you!”
“Shen Linjiang!”
Nan Sheng’s voice was no longer gentle but bone-chillingly cold.
Even though she disliked Shen Linjiang, she had always addressed him as Young Master Shen. This was the first time she had called him by his full name.
A sense of foreboding suddenly gripped Shen Linjiang.
Then he heard Nan Sheng ask leisurely, “You’ve been in close contact with Ms. Chen Lei recently, haven’t you?”
Shen Linjiang’s heart skipped a beat, wondering how Nan Sheng had guessed.
Since things had come to this, he had no choice but to brazen it out.
“Nan Sheng, I came here on Auntie Chen’s advice. She urged me to reconcile with you. I was forced—this wasn’t my intention.”
This was said for Fu Moyan’s benefit.
While speaking, Shen Linjiang stole glances at Fu Moyan’s expression, but Fu Moyan’s features remained as cold as a statue, his eyes sharp as blades.
Shen Linjiang felt as if pricked by a glance and quickly averted his gaze, turning to Nan Sheng for help.
“Nan Sheng, I didn’t mean to damage your relationship with Second Master. Even if you disregard the Nan Family and Shen Family’s reputations, please intercede with Second Master for me out of respect for Aunt Chen.”
If only he hadn’t waded into this muddy water!
Wasn’t Fu Moyan known for despising women’s schemes?
Why was he so enraged now that he immediately demanded to break his legs?
Nan Sheng looked up, her clear black-and-white eyes meeting Fu Moyan’s gaze.
Fu Moyan stared coldly at her, his deep dark eyes like frozen ice. “You want to plead for him?” His voice carried a trace of mockery.
Nan Sheng curved her lips into a light smile and slowly walked to face Fu Moyan, her eyes clear and bright, radiating calm gentleness.
Fu Moyan looked down at her from his height, his gaze sharp and cold enough to slice through Nan Sheng’s skin.
If Nan Sheng dared plead for Shen Linjiang today, he wouldn’t hesitate to break her legs too!
As long as the child remained unharmed.
Did they think his notorious reputation was unfounded?
Seemingly unaware of the freezing tension in the air, Nan Sheng rested a hand on her flat abdomen. A smooth jade bracelet slid down her wrist, revealing a glimpse of fair skin.
Her every movement exuded elegance, even her speech was soft-spoken, as if coaxing someone.
“Second Master, hospitals aren’t suitable for bloodshed. Why not have Assistant Xiao take him outside for the beating?”
“After it’s done, bring him back to the hospital. I still have some questions for him.”
Nan Sheng slowly raised her head, her gaze tender and bright, her voice flowing like gentle water.
Her entire demeanor conveyed submission, coaxing Fu Moyan’s heart into slight tremors.
Assistant Xiao marveled inwardly.
Even someone with his firm resolve felt swayed by Madam’s half-coaxing, half-coy tone. Second Master must be melting completely by now!
He’d wager Shen Linjiang’s leg that Second Master would agree to Madam’s request!
Despite his strong willpower, Assistant Xiao completely failed to recognize the cold ruthlessness beneath Nan Sheng’s gentle words.
The temperature in Fu Moyan’s eyes softened slightly, his gaze toward Nan Sheng growing more complex.
He extended a long arm, pulling Nan Sheng’s waist against his chest.
Nan Sheng hadn’t anticipated Fu Moyan’s move, her arms slightly bent as she leaned against his chest.
Though Fu Moyan’s actions appeared rough and domineering, his large hand firmly supported Nan Sheng’s slender waist, protecting her abdomen from harm.
Their bodies pressed tightly together.
Through the thin spring clothing, Nan Sheng could clearly feel Fu Moyan’s firm, well-defined muscle contours.
Fu Moyan felt it too.
The Nan Sheng in his arms was soft as cotton, his fingers sinking in, his palm burning with her delicate warmth.
He immediately loosened his grip slightly, discreetly stepping back half a pace.
This intentional intimacy ended up scorching Second Master Fu’s own heart.
Fu Moyan’s cold gaze swept over Shen Linjiang as he instructed Xiao Yun, “Do as Madam says!”
“Take him out to break his legs, then bring him back.”
What if his screaming in the hospital frightened his daughter?
Watching the tightly embraced pair, Shen Linjiang felt blood rushing to his head.
In his eyes, Nan Sheng was not only unfaithful but also inciting her lover to target him.
He shouted recklessly, “Nan Sheng, are you trying to drive Aunt Chen to her death?!”
Fu Moyan clearly felt Nan Sheng’s body stiffen in his embrace.
He cast a disgusted glance at Shen Linjiang and said in a low voice, “Xiao Yun, are you waiting for me to take action myself?”
Upon hearing this, Shen Linjiang suddenly turned and ran away without looking back.
Xiao Yun, along with the bodyguards, quickly caught up with him, covering his mouth and escorting him out.
The elevator area instantly fell silent.
Fu Moyan immediately released his grip, his voice cold and stern, “I don’t want to see something like this happen again!”
After saying this, he turned and walked toward the waiting room.
Nan Sheng gently rubbed her waist.
The man’s grip was incredibly strong—he had nearly crushed her waist!
Why did Nan Sheng approach Fu Moyan and deliberately soften her demeanor to coax him?
Having decided just this morning to leverage the Fu family’s influence against the Lu Family, Nan Sheng had no choice but to placate Second Master Fu a little.
Besides, Fu Moyan’s reprimand of Shen Linjiang was also helping her. Nan Sheng wasn’t so ungrateful as to plead for Shen Linjiang.
Seeing Second Master Fu walk away exuding a chilling aura, Nan Sheng wasn’t in a hurry and slowly followed him.
Passing through the waiting room, they arrived at the doctor’s office.
Fu Moyan stood tall and poised by the door, radiating a heavy, cold pressure.
The attending doctor was intimidated by his imposing presence, almost thinking he had come to cause trouble.
Nan Sheng walked into the room with a gentle smile, casually linking her arm with Fu Moyan’s and guiding him closer to the doctor’s desk.
