Li Siyuan walked to the side, sat on the edge of the bed, and gazed at her face, which was as still as a lake. An overwhelming feeling of heartache welled up in his heart.

"Whose child is it?" he asked gently, his hand softly resting on her abdomen.

“It’s not yours anyway!” she stubbornly replied.

"Then tell me, how did Lu Yucheng get you pregnant?"

"This has nothing to do with you. Besides, my fiancé and I are getting married soon. If you hadn't taken me away, I'd probably already have our marriage certificate. But, since you're my ex-husband, I'll send you an invitation." She deliberately raised her voice.

Li Siyuan's expression changed visibly. Thinking of her close relationship with Lu Yuchen, a nameless rage welled up within him: "Shen Xuan, if you dare marry him, I'll make sure the Shen family collapses along with you."

"The Shen family? Does that dilapidated Shen family still exist in Jiangcheng? Li Siyuan, do you think I would care about a bankrupt company?"

"Yes, the Shen family doesn't pose a threat to you, but shouldn't you give an explanation about the father of the child in your womb?"

"I've already said it has nothing to do with you, why are you still bothering me?"

Shen Xuan said angrily, but in her heart she was terrified of the terrifying man's entanglement after he learned the truth.

"Really has nothing to do with me? Shen Xuan, do you need me to help you recall how you got pregnant? Think carefully, what's the difference between me and Lu Yuchen?"

As he spoke, he gently lifted her chin with his hand and looked directly into her eyes.

"you!"

"So? Do you want to experience being pregnant again? Or would you like to experience it with Lu Yuchen?"

Shen Xuan grabbed a pillow and threw it at him, eventually even hitting him: "Li Siyuan, how long are you going to humiliate me?"

Her arm was immediately grasped by his strong hand, and she was pulled into his embrace.

Let me go!

“I know I was wrong, please come back?” he whispered in her ear, pressing her head against his chest.

Shen Xuan tried to push him away, but he held her even tighter.

"I was so wrong, Xiaoxuan. I can't let you go. I don't want to lose you. Only after you left did I realize I can't live without you. Can you forgive me? Can we start over?"

Shen Xuan stopped resisting and just lay there crying quietly. Before long, his suit was soaked with her tears.

Afterwards, she slowly fell asleep in his arms, and Li Siyuan gazed at her for a long time, even becoming somewhat captivated.

Until someone broke in.

Before the person could speak, he interrupted them, gently covered Shen Xuan with the blanket, and then left the ward.

"No one is allowed near her while I'm away. Take good care of her and make sure nothing happens to her!"

He straightened his clothes, looked at Shen Xuan inside with deep affection, and then turned and left.

Shen Xuan woke up groggily in bed, feeling a slight pain in her stomach.

She looked up and realized that night had fallen outside.

Because she had been lying down for too long, her back was in excruciating pain.

In the empty ward, it seemed that only her lonely figure remained.

She adjusted her posture slightly, and the person at the door immediately noticed, coming in to ask, "Madam, you're awake?!"

She paused slightly, then nodded gently after recognizing the other person.

She asked, "Why are you the only one here?"

The man assumed she wanted to see Li Siyuan and replied, "Does Madam wish to see Mr. Li? Mr. Li is currently engaged in some business and will likely arrive later. Would you like me to call him for you?"

"No need!" Shen Xuan quickly stopped her.

Out of sight, out of mind; she didn't want to see that man who only thought of himself.

Suddenly remembering something, she said, "Let me borrow your phone for a moment, I want to call him myself."

Upon hearing her say that, the man quickly took out his phone.

He found Li Siyuan's number, pressed the dial button, and handed it to her.

Shen Xuan took the call and saw that it had already been connected, and a chill ran down her spine.

This person really knows how to please her; he even dialed the phone for her.

She was about to hang up when the call was answered.

"Is Madam awake?" The voice was unusually gentle, unlike her usual self.

Shen Xuan: "..."

She then hurriedly hung up the phone.

Those around her looked at her with confusion.

"Get out. I need to speak with your husband alone now."

She urged the man to leave.

The person thought she wanted to have a private chat with Li Siyuan, and left the room with a blush and a racing heart.

Shen Xuan watched him leave, then secretly dialed Lu Yuchen's number.

But his phone was constantly busy.

Just as I hung up the phone, Li Siyuan called again.

Shen Xuan gritted her teeth and refused to answer.

Then she dialed Cheng Lu's number.

The people outside the door kept peeking at Shen Xuan, while she pretended to be talking to Li Siyuan on her phone.

It wasn't until Cheng Lu answered the phone that the call ended.

"Who is it?"

"Xiaolu, it's me!"

"Xiao Xuan, where did you go?" Cheng Lu was so excited on the other end of the phone that she almost jumped up.

She covered the microphone and whispered, "Xiao Lu, Li Siyuan brought me back to Jiangcheng. I'm in a hospital now. Don't worry, I'm fine. You don't need to worry about me anymore."

After saying that, she looked towards the door, forcing a smile as if she were shy, "Okay, that's all then, bye-bye."

Li Siyuan made several calls, but the line was either busy or the call was disconnected, and an ominous premonition rose in his heart.

After hanging up the phone, Shen Xuan deleted the call log and dialed Li Siyuan's number again.

“It’s me!” she said.

"I was in the restroom just now and it wasn't convenient to answer your call. I wanted to ask if you're coming over tonight?"

Li Siyuan frowned. This was his assistant's phone. Did he, a grown man, need to serve her even when she went to the toilet?

At this moment, he was sitting in the back of a black Maybach, holding his phone, his gaze fixed on the entrance of a high-end club ahead, and said casually, "I'll come see you later. Get some rest first, and don't wander off."

"But I'm bored in the hospital. I don't have a phone or a computer, and I want to go out and have some fun."

"Wait for me a little while, I'll come over to be with you as soon as I'm done."

The man frowned, saw the person in front of him walk out, and quickly ended the call.

Shen Xuan wanted to say something more, but the phone had already been hung up.

Jiang Yu gripped the steering wheel tightly in the driver's seat and looked at Li Siyuan through the rearview mirror. Under the night lights, his face appeared even colder and harder, as if covered with a layer of frost.

"Sir, the person has come out. Shall we go in and take a look now?"

"No need!" He watched the person walk away, his cold expression turning even more somber.

"This is a minor internal family matter; let them handle it themselves, and just make sure they understand their place."

Then, the car window slowly closed, and his profile appeared somewhat dim in the night.

Shen Xuan handed her phone to the person next to her, who looked at her with a puzzled expression.

He checked his recent call logs and found that the only contact was Li Siyuan, but the timing didn't seem to match up.

However, he did not delve into it further, since it only recorded his conversation with Li Siyuan.
