While Yu Sheng was dominating the scene, she didn’t notice at all that the door of the VIP room had quietly cracked open a sliver.
Wen Zhuqing, still on the call, had initially grown concerned upon hearing the commotion, worried that Yu Sheng might be at a disadvantage.
After all.
She was famously known as Rongcheng’s little pitiful one!
Worn down to a shadow of herself by the Yu family, anyone who heard about it couldn’t help but sigh, feeling she had been wronged.
Unexpectedly.
Before he could even step out to back her up, this young lady had already learned to flaunt his authority by wielding his Black Card!
After giving the scum a little taste of humiliation, Yu Sheng, in high spirits, continued browsing the jewelry.
As for the three people she had kicked out, they were naturally fuming, wishing they could curse her to death.
“I have to tell Jiao Jiao, this woman is just too much!”
With that, she immediately took out her phone and dialed Yu Jiaojiao’s number. Lying bored in her hospital bed, Yu Jiaojiao felt no particular emotion upon seeing the incoming call.
“Hello?”
As always, her voice came through soft and fragile.
The woman on the other end of the line was clearly furious, with a hint of urgency in her tone. “Jiao Jiao, guess what I just saw?”
Yu Jiaojiao didn’t respond, quietly waiting for her to continue.
Sure enough, the other party didn’t disappoint.
“We saw Yu Sheng shopping at Bulgari. Isn’t she the Yu family’s fake heiress? Wasn’t she kicked out? How does she still have so much money?”
Yu Jiaojiao hadn’t expected that the man Yu Sheng had hooked up with was quite influential.
Putting on a thoughtful act for a moment, she casually remarked, “She had a falling out with the family and was taken away by some man—no one knows where. I heard that today, some woman even came to cause trouble, accusing her of seducing someone else’s husband!”
“Ah, it’s all my fault. If it weren’t for my illness, Mom and Dad wouldn’t have neglected to keep an eye on her!”
What a masterful display of Green Tea Language.
Her words had the three of them nodding in unison, as if they had stumbled upon some shocking revelation.
After hanging up, when they glanced back at Yu Sheng inside the store, their eyes were filled with nothing but disdain.
“Tch, what a Vixen. Ugh, how shameless!”
Hiding in a corner, one of them secretly snapped a photo and posted it on social media.
【Girls these days will really do anything for money.】
Some things don’t need to be spelled out.
People will fill in the blanks themselves.
Yu Sheng unapologetically ordered an entire set of jewelry, her fingers gently brushing over her still-flat abdomen.
“Baby~ you have to grow up well, okay~”
Look.
Daddy is so capable.
By the time Wen Zhuqing finished his call and wrapped up his business, he came out to see this scene: the girl sitting obediently as she ate a small cake, a sweet smile on her face.
Her gaze, when it fell on him, was gentle and soft.
Perhaps.
Only they themselves knew deep down that, aside from this child, the relationship between them was almost as thin as water.
Seeing Wen Zhuqing approach, Yu Sheng immediately set down her small cake, pulled out a tissue, and dabbed her lips.
“Mr. Wen.”
Her voice was just as soft, brushing against his ears like a spring breeze, impossibly light.
Wen Zhuqing reached up, adjusted his glasses, and gave a faint nod.
Striding purposefully toward the exit, he left Yu Sheng clutching the Black Card she had been about to hand back. She paused for a moment before quickly following after him.
Who knew what had been said during that phone call?
The entire time they were leaving, Wen Zhuqing’s expression remained grim.
Upon returning to the parking lot, Aunt Jiang saw the two finally arrive and quickly opened the car door first, helping Yu Sheng settle into the back seat.
“Young Mistress, be careful. Are you feeling unwell anywhere? Were you still nauseous earlier? What would you like for dinner tonight?”
As she spoke, she glanced at Wen Zhuqing.
“Young Master, really! How could you not know to take better care of the Young Mistress?”
Wen Zhuqing: “…”
He really wanted to call his parents and have Aunt Jiang return to the old residence!
He simply couldn’t stand this constant, immersive acting as if she were in a script.
Despite this, he replied in a cool, detached tone.
“Mm, I understand.”
Following Wen Zhuqing’s instructions, the driver first took him back to the company. When getting out of the car, Wen Zhuqing’s steps toward the office building were noticeably hurried.
It was unclear what had happened.
Perhaps due to excessive tension, Yu Sheng subconsciously clenched her fist and only then realized the embossed Black Card was still tightly gripped in her hand.
Lowering her gaze, she examined it carefully. The dazzling emblem on the Black Card was both understated and imposing, quite fitting for Wen Zhuqing’s personality.
After returning home,
Aunt Jiang turned on her phone again and played a romance novel aloud.
Yu Sheng silently stood up and headed upstairs. She’d rather listen to some light music.
She couldn’t possibly use a domineering CEO’s line like, “Woman, you’ve successfully caught my attention!” for prenatal education!
After dinner,
Wen Zhuqing’s secretary hurried in, greeted Yu Sheng, and went straight upstairs to the study.
After retrieving some documents, he rushed back down.
Upon seeing Yu Sheng, he didn’t forget to say, “Hello. President Wen said he won’t have time to return for dinner today. He asked you to remember to take your medicine on time and rest early.”
Yu Sheng instinctively asked, “Did something happen?”
Well.
It wasn’t unreasonable for her to show appropriate concern for the father of her child—her long-term meal ticket, right?
After all, the two of them had signed a trial marriage contract!
Secretary: “Um… it’s not a big issue.”
That’s good!
Yu Sheng’s anxious heart immediately relaxed, and she comfortably resumed watching her idol drama.
Completely unaware of online gossip, Yu Sheng only learned she’d been secretly targeted with slanderous rumors when she received a call from Duan Jin Yan.
“Fortunately, it’s just a minor local influencer in Rong City with over a hundred thousand followers. The impact isn’t significant, and shortly after the incident, her video was taken down.”
Yu Sheng took a bite of a steamed bun, listening somewhat distractedly.
“Seriously, you’ve been bullied by Yu Jiaojiao to this extent—how can you not fight back?”
Yu Sheng finished the bun in a few bites, took a sip of milk to clear her throat, and then replied leisurely.
“Right now, as long as the Yu family can’t find me, that’s the best revenge!”
What?
Duan Jin Yan didn’t quite understand her meaning.
Yu Sheng then explained how she had been deceived into undergoing tissue matching. “The Yu family targets me everywhere for no other reason than my heart!”
Duan Jin Yan: “…”
It was truly rare for someone to describe such a horrifying situation so calmly and lightly!
“So, you plan to keep hiding like this?”
Hide?
Was she the type to retreat in the face of difficulty?
“I’ve already made my move~”
Huh?
Duan Jin Yan looked bewildered yet curious, unsure of what Yu Sheng had actually done.
