Newlywed and old love, the president's secret bride

Chapter 239 Duan Zijin Feels Like She Can Do Nothing But Cry

Chapter 239 Duan Zijin felt as if he could do nothing but cry and was in the manor on the Rhine.

The butler, dressed in a meticulous dress, silently and respectfully pushed the old woman in the wheelchair for a walk in the garden.

From a distance, I saw the well-dressed Second Master Jiang standing in the garden, with one hand behind his back and the other on his abdomen, with his fingertips hanging slightly, he was twirling a lavender cornflower picked from a bush. Chrysanthemum, looking at a lake disturbed by swans, doesn't know what he is thinking.

Hearing the sound of the wheelchair rubbing against the gravel road, Jiang Fengli turned around as if he had just woken up from a dream. He was slightly startled, and immediately went up to meet him. He bowed and said in Chinese, "Old lady."

The woman in the wheelchair smiled lightly, "Hello."

"Are you still used to living in these two days?"

"Everything is fine here, thanks to your care, thank you very much."

"Don't say that." Jiang Fengli said, "You are an in-law of the Jiang family, and it is our duty to take care of you."

The old lady still had a soothing smile on her face, from beginning to end, even the curvature of the corners of her eyes and brows remained unchanged.

The housekeeper continued to push the wheelchair to accompany her for a walk in the garden. Jiang Fengli leaned over and watched her pass by him, and then he straightened up again, his face becoming a little heavy for some reason.

He still remembered the day Lenn came in a hurry a week ago and the whole family was in the main hall—

"The woman I brought back last time was pregnant with my child. Is that enough reason?"

As soon as the man's deep voice fell, the atmosphere in the entire hall changed from silence to silence, like a pool of stagnant water that couldn't be stirred.

But in the next second, the dropped depth charges created thousands of waves.

"What did you say!"

Jiang Fengshi jumped up against the table, glaring at the young man in front of him who looked a lot like himself.

Compared to the calmness and composure of the young man, Jiang Fengshi's whole body seemed to be scorched by a layer of scorching flames, "Last time you brought back that woman named Duan?"

Jiang Lin looked back at him calmly, his eyes were as dark and silent as ever, and his tone was calm, "Yes."

The old prince seemed to just wake up from a big dream at this moment, but he forgot to put down the teacup in his hand, "When did it happen?"

"Four months ago."

The old duke's face was ugly, and he shouted in a deep voice: "Nonsense! How can the Jiang family's blood flow out! You know how to deal with this kind of thing!"

Jiang Fengli slowly recovered from the shock, as if remembering something, he frowned, "Lenn, that child..."

"Why, is grandpa going to ignore the dogma?" Jiang Lin didn't give Jiang Fengli a chance to finish his sentence, and faced the old prince directly, his eyes were as deep as the sea, and there were faint waves and undercurrents.

Jiang Nan and Jiang Shan looked at each other, and both found a bit of consternation and helplessness in each other's eyes.

The Willebrand family has served the Holy See for generations, and in the dogma, abortion is an extremely serious sin.

This woman's child must be kept, or even if it dies, it cannot be killed by their hands.

The old prince clenched the teacup in his hand, the veins on his clear face were showing, and his whole body was trembling with anger.

After a long time, he took a deep breath and calmly said: "Okay, she can give birth to the child, and we will raise it as usual. As for Leopold's family... Nancy is a girl who knows the general situation, neither arrogant nor rash, and will definitely become A competent and good wife will never treat your children harshly."

When the old duke said these words, Jiang Fengli kept looking at Jiang Lin with weird eyes. After the old duke finished speaking, he immediately said, "Father, about the child..."

"Second uncle."

The man's deep voice interrupted him, and his black eyes looked at him inadvertently.

But Jiang Fengli froze when he saw him.

Jiang Lin's gaze at this time was extremely deep and cold, and there was a bitter chill and a sense of danger in the depths, "The decision on this matter is in my hands, so you don't have to worry about it."

Jiang Fengli immediately understood the warning in his eyes.

In a suburban park in Greenland, after his nephew and the woman quarreled over the child, before deciding to go to the hospital for a DNA test, he specifically told him: "What the second uncle heard today, no matter whether the result is what she said or not. As you said, I hope you can rot this matter in your stomach, and don't let me hear anyone talking about her."

What did he say then?

"Yes, I swear in the name of the family."

Jiang Fengli clenched his fists violently, and an unspeakable depression arose in his heart.

In the education they have received since childhood, keeping promises is more important than life.

Plus the phrase "in the name of the family" - the sense of family has long been ingrained in the minds of celebrities and nobles, and the Willebrand family believes in religion and fears ghosts and gods. Jiang Fengli would never dare to break such a vow easily.

"You want to marry that woman?" the old prince asked very slowly.

"Yes."

"What if I disagree?" The old duke sneered, "What else can you do to your grandfather?"

When the old duke finished speaking, everyone's expressions were very serious, and they all understood that the old man was not joking.

Only the young man raised his lips lightly under the eyes of everyone, "Of course I can't do anything to you."

A smile was drawn from the corners of his thin and cold mouth, quietly and deeply hidden.

He moved slowly and turned sideways, and the half-hidden doors opened at this moment, and an old lady in a beautiful and graceful dress was pushed in in a wheelchair.

The moment they saw his face clearly, everyone present stood up from their chairs at the same time.

Jiang Fengshi was only stunned for two or three seconds, then walked up quickly, supported the woman's wheelchair, his face was stiff and complicated, "Mom, why are you here?"

Mrs. Jiang, who had been sitting next to Jiang Fengshi, suddenly covered her mouth with a handkerchief, trembling, with tears in her eyes, and murmured softly: "Old lady..."

There were waves of waves in the eyes of the old duke, and soon fell silent again.

He put down his teacup and got up slowly, "Madam Chen."

Chen Zhoushi nodded at him with a smile, then turned around and stretched out her hand in Mrs. Jiang's direction, "Lan Xin, come here."

In the last few steps, Mrs. Jiang almost knelt down in front of the old lady, and tightly grasped her hand.

As if knowing what she was going to say, Chen Zhou patted the back of her hand lovingly, "You have been wronged for Miaoqing these years."

Mrs. Jiang's tears kept pouring down, she kept shaking her head, biting her lips so that she could not make a sound.Chen Zhoushi sighed, and looked into the old Duke Jifeng's hidden eyes, and said in a calm and gentle voice, "Mr. Duke, can my old lady talk to you alone?"

Jiang Fengli watched the big housekeeper push the old lady's wheelchair into the Duke's study, turned around and said to Jiang Lin, "Let's talk too, come out with me."

The setting sun was slightly slanting, and the shadows of the two of them stretched on the gravel road. Jiang Fengli didn't talk nonsense, and immediately asked, "Is the child really yours?"

The man's handsome face was divided into two half-bright and half-dark sides in the ever-changing orange light. He pursed the corners of his mouth and said nothing.

Only this reaction made Jiang Fengli understand. He raised his cane and hit Jiang Lin hard, "You can do it! Your wings are hard, and you dare to lie to your grandfather?"

Jiang Lin still stood still with his eyes downcast, and he didn't dodge. He silently let him hit him. His back was straight and his muscles were tense.

"Do you know how important children are to the Jiang family? If your grandfather finds out about this one day..."

"Second Uncle." The man finally spoke in a deep voice, "No one else will know about this, never will."

"Are you going to keep it a secret for the rest of your life?" Jiang Fengli was so angry that he didn't know what to say, "I don't want a lady from a noble family, but you want to marry a dirty woman and raise a bastard from outside?"

"Second Uncle!" Jiang Fengli's words made the man's handsome and indifferent eyebrows frown for a moment, his eyes gradually turned cold, which was reflected in the orange light of the setting sun, forming a strange contrast, "I know what you are worried about. Me and She won't have only this adopted son, the heir the Jiang family needs...there will always be one in the future."

"Are you crazy!" Jiang Fengli stared at him incredulously, "Are you still planning to have a child with such a woman?"

There was chaos in the man's pitch-black eyes, which were so deep that it made people panic. His voice was very light, but very deep.

A "yes" is very clear.

Jiang Fengli had already forgotten what anger felt like, and just stared blankly at his face, "You clearly know that her child is not yours, why did you..."

The man's voice sounded very quiet, and the coldness seemed to penetrate the skin through the air, piercing into the deepest part of his heart——

"Because I can clearly distinguish what is most important to me."

What is most important to him.

A week later, Jiang Fengli stood in the garden where he was talking with his nephew at that time, looking at the Swan Lake not far away, recalling the expression and tone of his speech at that time, the feeling of boredom in his heart was still there.

What is the most important thing, does he really know clearly?

Not status, fame, not even his self-esteem...

But that woman.

Weibo "Mu Ruqingfeng toki", welcome to follow.

With the help of Mrs. Jiang, Duan Zijin soon met Ah Qing who was temporarily detained in the detention center.

He seemed to be doing well, proving that things had not yet reached the point of no return.

When he saw Duan Zijin, the man's handsome eyebrows frowned slightly, and then he turned his head away, as if he couldn't believe why she could come in to see him, and he didn't know how to face her.

At this moment, Duan Zijin can't say anything to blame. Although they were born at the same time, she is his eldest sister after all, and she is also responsible for her ineffective discipline when this happened.As early as when he decided to sign the contract with a fake ID, she should have insisted on opposing it to the end, instead of taking chances and muddling along.

"Ah Qing, don't worry, you'll be out soon." Duan Zijin patted his hand, "The matter of money... I already have a solution."

Duan Zipei pursed her lower lip, and finally turned around, "Where did you get so much money?"

After a pause, his dark blue pupils became sharp and compelling in an instant, and his tone of voice raised a bit, "Did you go to beg him?"

She naturally knew who "begging him" was referring to, but this question made it difficult for Duan Zijin to answer.

She never begged Jiang Lin, but this matter was also inseparable from Jiang Lin.

Duan Zipei Yang slammed his hand on the table in front of him, with an annoyed expression on his face, "It's all my fault!"

After all, Duan Zijin couldn't see him like this, so he quickly stretched out his hand to hold his wrist, and softly comforted him: "Don't think too much..."

"Did he make things difficult for you?"

Duan Zijin was taken aback, "No."

"How could he lend you money unconditionally?"

Duan Zi coughed, "Let's talk about this matter when you come out, the money has already been transferred to the company's account, and it will arrive tomorrow at the latest."

Duan Zipei stared deeply at her face, "I'd rather go to jail."

"Even if you go to jail, the money will still be paid to the brokerage company." On the woman's delicate and bright face, the two crescent eyebrows slightly frowned, looking helpless, "Change your position and think about it. The person is me, can you just stand by and watch?"

No.

The man's handsome and handsome eyebrows were completely drawn together.

Duan Zi raised the corners of his lower lips, and smiled gently: "However, he is also the father of my child, so he won't really do anything to me."

Duan Zipei closed his eyes and took a deep breath, "Go back first, I'll be home tomorrow... Let's talk about this matter."

"Okay." She still smiled calmly and warmly.

Duan Zipei thought that nothing could be changed in one afternoon.

However, he did not expect that after the woman came out of the detention center, she took a taxi straight to the ice cream shop in the city.

At this time, it was already the third day of the agreement between her and Jiang Lin.

I stayed in the detention center for a while, and the traffic in the city was not very good.

Duan Zijin sat in the car, watching the time gradually passing by on the phone screen, feeling anxious.

But on the street in front of him, there was already a long queue of cars, and it was too jammed to move.

The appointment time was two o'clock in the afternoon, and it is already one o'clock and fifty-eight.The taxi she took was three blocks away from the ice cream shop.

Duan Zijin frowned, took out the money from his bag and handed it to the driver, "I'll get off here, thank you, sir, I'll pay the money."

"It's dangerous to get out of the car here!" The driver's dissuasion had no effect. The woman had already opened the car door and walked down. In the scene of brake lights that came and went one after another, she could clearly see the bulge after holding it with one hand for five months. Belly, passing through the gap of the safe distance left by the long convoy.

The driver watched her walk to the sidewalk, and then shook his head with a sigh.

The woman looked left and right by the sidewalk for a while, as if thinking about which way to go, finally she turned on her phone to check the time, and immediately stepped on one without hesitation.

The driver's sigh deepened.

The other road was much shorter than the one she chose, and she didn't know how long it would take to take this long detour.

The weather in mid-September was very uncomfortable, and it was cooler in the morning and evening, so Duan Zijin added an extra layer of clothes when she went out, but at two or three in the afternoon, it was no different from the hottest time in summer. A round of scorching sun was hanging above her head. Wiping the sweat that kept pouring out of his forehead, he was almost dehydrated.

On the street, well-meaning people kept coming up to ask, saying that her complexion was not good, and whether they should take her to the hospital.

Duan Zijin kept shaking his head, and there was only one sentence when he came and went: "Thank you for your kindness, I have to go to a very important appointment."

At 03:30 in the afternoon, there was still about 1000 meters away from the appointment with Jiang Lin.

The scene in front of him was slightly blurred, Duan Zijin panted, leaned on the fence beside the road, closed his eyes uncomfortably, raised his hand and pinched the center of his brow.

Suddenly, she felt that the strap of the handbag had been hooked heavily, and when she realized it and opened her eyes, the handbag was gone.

This street is a commercial area, with pedestrians and tourists in an endless stream, and the law and order is up and down.

Her porcelain-white face was completely pale at this moment, and she turned her head quickly, only to see a suspicious man wrapped in black just disappearing at the corner of the street at the end of her line of sight.

If it was normal, she might still be able to catch up, but now that she is pregnant, she has been exposed to the sun for more than an hour, and even the strength to walk is almost exhausted, how can she catch up with that man?

That man must have seen her as a pregnant woman, a foreigner, and alone, so he dared to snatch her things in front of her in broad daylight.

That handbag contained her mobile phone, wallet, and most importantly... her passport!

Thinking of this, Duan Zijin couldn't help biting his lip hard, his slender fingers clenched the fence he was holding on tightly, just wanting to slap himself on the face.

Why are you so careless!Is it really a foolish three years?

How is it now...

Nothing, nothing!

Duan Zijin suddenly regretted why she didn't let Mi Lan come out with her in the morning.

At that time, Mi Lan asked her if she wanted to accompany her.

She smiled and said, you have been running around with me for two days. You came to Los Angeles to play, not to suffer.

The white teeth were even more forceful, and her lips, which were already as white as paper, were bitten so badly that they were about to rot.

When Duan Zijin came to her senses, a well-meaning person beside her had already called the police for her. Her eyes froze, and before she could say anything to stop her, the police not far away had already arrived in front of her on a motorcycle.

Seeing that she was pregnant, the white policeman frowned, condemned the conscienceless thief in a low voice, and persuaded her: "Don't worry, we will definitely catch him, now please follow us to the nearby police station Make a record."

Duan Zijin felt the world spinning in front of her eyes, she kept shaking her head: "Sir, I'm not in a hurry to get those things back, I have very important things now..."

"Madam, report to the police. The case must be accepted. This is not only for yourself, but also for the security of the surrounding area." The policeman said methodically, saw her puffy stomach, and opened the door. The intercom called a car and took her back to the police station.

Duan Zijin was so anxious that he wanted to grab his walkie-talkie and throw it on the ground.

But in this country where the law is above everything else, what she did was not cooperating with the police, and it could be regarded as assaulting the police.

What's more, she is a foreigner, and not all Westerners will treat her with equal eyes.

Duan Zijin suppressed the displeasure and anxiety in his heart, and got into the police car while the police were half persuading and half threatening.

Not feeling well, being in a bad mood, and thinking about other things in her mind, she seemed very absent-minded during the entire recording process, and answered questions concisely, and she never said a word more than a question that could be answered in one word.

The police only thought that she was not good at English, and didn't bother with her. After taking the record, they brought her some bread and water, and stood in front of the gate to watch her leave the police station.

At that time, the sky was already faintly covered with red clouds.

Duan Zijin dragged his exhausted body and heart, and walked towards the ice cream shop step by step.

Passing by the window of a nearby store, she stopped, turned her head to look at the wall clock in the store, and her expressionless and somewhat embarrassed face was reflected on the glass.

Duan Zijin raised his hand, supported the glass window, and held down the ugly and distorted shadow.

It's six o'clock.

Not a single car was parked outside the ice cream shop not far away.

She didn't know what was supporting her to come here.

She couldn't help but twitched the corner of her lower lip, and the smile was smashed into pieces between her furrowed brows.

Duan Zijin still walked over, and the wooden sign "Closed for three days" was still hanging on the store door, everything seemed to be the same as she left three days ago.

The shop was silent and desolate, dark, and there was nothing.

Jiang Lin left.

The thought seemed to seep into her internal organs like a poison.

For a moment, the pain was so painful that she almost bent down, Duan Zijin subconsciously held the doorknob.

always like this.

There is always a miss between them.

Is it because the heaven is not beautiful, or is the fate really so shallow?

The strength in his hand couldn't help but increase a lot, and the next moment, the door slowly opened under her push.

The door... unlocked?

Duan Zijin was slightly taken aback, a certain thought quickly crossed her mind, she hurriedly gathered all her strength, and pushed all the doors open.

The store was quiet, and as far as the eye could see, there was no one there.

Oh, what is she expecting?

Duan Zijin slowly let go of her hand, she had exhausted too much physical strength before, and at this moment, her whole body seemed to be hollowed out.

She stared at the tables and chairs in the store, her brown eyes were cold and indifferent, immersed in the dim light, she couldn't see anything.

Duan Zijin casually pulled out a chair and sat down, put his hands on the table and covered his face.

After an unknown amount of time, a deep and cold voice came from outside the door——

"As I said, my patience is limited, don't make me wait too long."

Duan Zijin suddenly raised his head and looked out the door intently.

The majestic halo of the setting sun shaped the man's tall and straight skeleton into a bell silhouette.

He was against the light, and the expression on his face was unclear.

Based on that voice alone, it is not difficult to guess that the man must have smoked a lot, because his voice is so hoarse.

Duan Zi was stunned for a few seconds, then suddenly stood up with a "huh", the chair was overturned by her sudden movement, and she had no time to care about it.

The man looked at her coldly, his face was cold and gloomy, and the bottom of his pitch-black eyes was filled with the haze of wind and rain.

However, the woman rushed forward quickly under his sight, and her arms tightly wrapped around his waist. Before he had any time to think and react, he held her in his arms with his backhand.

He only felt that when she bumped into her, his heart trembled violently.

The darkness and indifference in his pupils shattered. He lowered his head and stared at the woman who buried her head in front of his chest. It took a long time before she raised her head and glanced at the table and chair she had been sitting on just now.

Nothing at all……

She did not bring her passport.

The man's heart sank, he let go of his hand, and said in an unprecedentedly cold tone, "Get up!"

The woman remained motionless, as if she could not hear him.

Jiang Lin sneered, and just as he was about to speak again, the words came to his lips, but he suddenly felt something wet the shirt on his chest.

His body froze, his brows gradually furrowed, "Duan Zijin?"

I don't know if his deep voice is too familiar, or his desolate smell is too familiar, these familiar feelings made her hold back the tears all afternoon, like a flood that opened the gate, and kept falling.

Walking on the streets of a foreign country with a big belly and the scorching sun, he walked a long way, was targeted by thieves, and was forced into the police station by the police...

Passport wallet keys, everything is gone.

Before seeing him, she was still able to deal with all this calmly and calmly, but now, in his arms, Duan Zijin felt as if she could do nothing but cry.
