After the divorce, Mr. Gu spent every day at the crematorium.

The man's hot breath brushed against Shen Yao's ear.

Shen Yao felt no passion or desire between the man and woman; all she felt was a strange sense of irritation.

She turned around and pushed the man away.

"Do not touch me."

The moment he was pushed away, Gu Tianyou felt as if he were about to crack apart.

Can't I just hug you?

"No."

Shen Yao refused very decisively.

Gu Tianyou gritted his teeth, his chest heaving violently, and his hands clenched into fists.

What if I insist?

As a man with normal physiological needs, how could he not have any improper thoughts when facing a woman he likes?

Moreover, he hadn't seen a woman for a month.

He wanted it so badly.

He threw his suit jacket on the ground, then suddenly picked the woman up and carried her to the bedside.

He pinned the woman down on the bed.

Shen Yao's hands were clasped to the headboard, and she stared at Gu Tianyou with red eyes.

"I am pregnant."

Gu Tianyou was about to bend down when he heard these words and immediately stopped all movement.

"Yaoyao, what did you say?"

"I am pregnant."

Shen Yao spoke slowly, emphasizing each word.

She was afraid the man wouldn't hear her clearly.

A smile appeared on Gu Tianyou's originally cold face.

He was about to reach out and hug Shen Yao when she refused.

"Do not touch me."

"Okay, I won't touch you."

Gu Tianyou lay down next to Shen Yao.

They were about a fist's width apart.

As Gu Tianyou watched Shen Yao turn around, presenting her cold figure to him, the light that had risen in his eyes dimmed again.

"Don't worry, this time I will protect you and the child well."

"Ah."

Shen Yao's reply was extremely cold.

It seems she no longer believes what men say.

"Believe me, this time, I will definitely protect you."

Gu Tianyou reached out and gently hugged Shen Yao's waist.

Shen Yao immediately pushed his hands away.

"I hope you will do what you say."

Upon hearing this, Gu Tianyou's hand, which had been raised in mid-air, helplessly fell to the ground and rested on the bed.

"Okay, I won't pressure you during this time."

Gu Tianyou watched the woman's retreating figure and made a promise.

Back in Shenzhen, Gu Tianyou remained busy.

Leave early and come back late.

Shen Yao's belly grew bigger and bigger.

Everyone in the manor knew that Shen Yao was pregnant, and they were even more careful in serving her.

While Gu Tianyou was not home, Shen Yao called Lu Jiajia.

"He believed it."

"Really?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Jiajia felt not happy, but rather more worried about Shen Yao.

"What if he discovers the truth?"

Shen Yao was still very worried.

“No, I told him that it was his child.”

Lu Jiajia clutched her chest. "Be careful."

Still worried about Shen Yao, she decided to go and check on her.

Shen Yao said she needed to inform Gu Tianyou first.

"After hearing that I was pregnant, Jiajia said she wanted to come and see me."

Gu Tianyou received Shen Yao's call at noon.

He pondered for a moment and nodded.

"Alright, let her come then, but my men will personally go to pick her up."

"it is good."

After receiving Gu Tianyou's permission, Shen Yao told Lu Jiajia that she could come to see her.

After hanging up the phone, Gu Tianyou sat in his large office, reflecting on everything that had happened recently, and fell into deep thought.

When Chen Jie knocked on the door and came in, he saw his boss staring blankly into space.

"President Gu, the meeting is about to begin."

Gu Tianyou stood up, picked up the documents, and walked to Chen Jie.

"Please pick up Miss Lu Jiajia tomorrow morning."

Having followed Gu Tianyou for so many years, Chen Jie naturally knew who Lu Jiajia was.

"Yes."

He readily agreed.

In the past two years, Gu Tianyou has been treating him better and better.

Chen Jie's work efficiency is also getting higher and higher.

Therefore, he is now very willing to do any private or official business that Gu Tianyou asks him to do.

"Mr. Gu, where are we taking Miss Lu?"

Gu Tianyou turned his head and looked at him meaningfully.

“I don’t go to this place often, but you’ve been there recently.”

After thinking for a moment, Chen Jie finally understood what place it was.

The next day, when Chen Jie drove Lu Jiajia to the gate of the manor, several tall men wearing sunglasses stopped Chen Jie's car.

The leader pulled out a photo, compared it to Chen Jie's appearance, nodded, and indicated that he could go in.

Lu Jiajia, sitting in the back row, was taken aback by the rigorous screening process. Such meticulousness—was this the Imperial Palace?

The car drove for about 5 minutes before reaching the actual interior of the manor.

Chen Jie got out of the car first and opened the back door for Lu Jiajia.

As soon as Lu Jiajia got out of the car, she saw a huge white tent set up on a large, neatly trimmed lawn not far away.

Shen Yao was sitting on a deck chair under the tent, reading a book.

Upon seeing Lu Jiajia arrive, Shen Yao quickly tossed the book aside and opened her arms to welcome her.

"I miss you so much!"

Lu Jiajia hugged her friend tightly.

After feeling that her belly had really grown bigger, he quickly let go.

"Oh, I forgot you were pregnant!"

Lu Jiajia took two or three steps back, her eyes filled with guilt.

Shen Yao took a few steps closer to her, gently put her arm around her shoulder, and comforted her softly.

"It's been almost three months, and I'm fine."

As he spoke, he pulled Lu Jiajia to sit down on the recliner together.

After Lu Jiajia sat down, she told him about her recent situation.

After she finished speaking, she asked Shen Yao what she planned to do next.

"Let's talk about other things after the baby is born."

This child is hers and Bo Yuxiu's, and she must protect it well and give birth to it safely.

"Are you planning to live like this with Gu Tianyou forever? You two...?"

Lu Jiajia didn't know what to say.

He could only sigh helplessly.

"We're just getting what we need. There won't be any emotional entanglements."

"Yaoyao, I'll take you away from here. We can go abroad to have our baby!"

Lu Jiajia wanted to whisper something to Shen Yao, but then she saw the gate not far away slowly opening.

A stretched Rolls-Royce drove in.

Immediately afterwards, several mercenaries standing by the gate bowed deeply to the Rolls-Royce.

"Mr. Gu."

Lu Jiajia was startled and lowered her voice to say to Shen Yao, "Didn't you say that Gu Tianyou wouldn't come back until after dark these days?"

Shen Yao was also very surprised when she saw Gu Tianyou's car.

Why did this man suddenly come back at this time?

Shen Yao shook her head at Lu Jiajia.

"It's only 3 p.m., he shouldn't be back so early."

The Rolls-Royce's door was pushed open.

Gu Tianyou's long legs were the first to step out.

As soon as he came out, he straightened his suit jacket and shirt, and then walked towards Shen Yao and Lu Jiajia.

The afternoon sun was still a bit too bright.

The man walked against the light, making Shen Yao look dazzling.

"Since Jiajia is here, why don't you stay and have dinner with us?"

Gu Tianyou looked at Lu Jiajia meaningfully.
