My Beautiful CEO.

"You...you're talking nonsense!" Zhang Qing was both angry and anxious, but there was nothing she could do.

Standing beside Zhang Qing, looking at her exquisite and elegant white dress, Li Cheng was cautious, while his heart began to pound wildly.

The moment he lifted her skirt, Li Cheng's eyes widened.

However, at that moment, Zhang Qing suddenly turned off the lights in the room with a snap.

In an instant, the entire room was plunged into darkness.

Li Cheng stood there, puzzled, and said, "Sister Qing, you've turned off all the lights, how am I supposed to do this? Don't blame me if something happens to you!"

"You...don't you still have a cell phone?" Zhang Qing said quietly.

"You mean, I should use my phone for lighting?" Li Cheng's eyebrows twitched, and he immediately took out his phone and turned on the flashlight.

Zhang Qing gritted her teeth, gripped the bed sheet tightly with both hands, and her body tensed slightly. It seemed that this ointment had done her a lot of harm.

As soon as Li Cheng touched the ointment, Zhang Qing broke out in a sweat from the pain.

"Ouch!" Zhang Qing cried out before she had even peeled off half of the ointment. "Xiao Lu, can you slow down a bit?"

"Sister Qing, you have to be patient. I'm already slow enough, but I just can't tear it off..." Li Cheng sneered, but secretly he was overjoyed.

The ointment was applied so tightly, which suited Li Cheng's taste perfectly.

"Okay, while you're tearing it, could you rub it for me too? Otherwise, it hurts so much..." Zhang Qing said, a little out of breath.

But at this critical moment, footsteps suddenly sounded outside the house.

"Oh no, someone's coming!" Zhang Qing tensed up immediately upon hearing footsteps. She lowered her voice and said to Li Cheng, "Xiao Lu, stop for a second, stay still, and listen to see who's coming?"

Li Cheng nodded and immediately stopped.

Just then, He Fang's voice rang out from outside the door: "Zhang Qing, Mom wants to come in and talk to you, is that alright?"

Hearing that voice, Zhang Qing's heart sank.

There's a grown man in her room! What should she do?

His eyes searched the room, but found no place to hide.

The only safe place is under the bed.

Zhang Qing immediately decided to have Li Cheng crawl under the bed.

Then, Zhang Qing called out to the outside, "Mom, it's so late, why are you coming over here?"

"Mom can't sleep, so I wanted to talk to you."

Zhang Qing had no choice but to come and open the door.

He Fang pushed open the door and the first thing she said to Zhang Qing was, "Zhang Qing, have you thought this through?"

"Mom, let's talk about this later, okay? I'm a little tired today and want to rest!" Zhang Qing said, but at the same time she was panicking. After all, there was a grown man under her bed, and hearing her say this made him feel very uncomfortable.

How could He Fang know? She shook her head, sighed, and reached out to turn on the room light.

This startled Zhang Qing again, and she hurriedly looked under the bed.

Her biggest worry was that Li Cheng was so big that he could be exposed at any time.

Seeing that Li Cheng was well hidden, Zhang Qing breathed a slight sigh of relief, and then deliberately climbed onto the bed.

"Zhang Qing, what's wrong? You seemed a bit off when you came back today. Are you feeling unwell?" He Fang walked up to Zhang Qing with concern and touched her forehead.

"Mom! Didn't I tell you? I'm really fine! I'm just a little tired..." Zhang Qing said impatiently.

"If nothing's wrong, why is your face so red?" He Fang asked, puzzled.

"Isn't it all because of your secret recipe?" Zhang Qing said unhappily. "My face turned red not long after I applied the ointment."

"Really? Then let Mom take a good look. It's probably the medicine taking effect!" He Fang excitedly leaned close to Zhang Qing's eyes and looked closely.

"Zhang Qing, don't you believe me? This ointment is really effective. Mom bought it at a high price! As long as you put it on, I guarantee you'll be able to give birth..."

"Mom, what are you saying? Actually, I'm not sick at all..." Zhang Qing explained with difficulty.

"Who said you're not sick? Why haven't you and Li Tao had a child all these years?" He Fang asked with a serious expression.

"Mom, I've told you before, the reason for having the child wasn't my fault..."

"Really?" He Fang stared at her daughter with a smile. "Is what you said true?"

"Of course it's true. How could there be a problem with your daughter?"

"So, then it's Li Tao's problem!" He Fang said with a smile. "That's why I deliberately set you up on a blind date today, just to see what you think..."

“Mom…” Zhang Qing lowered her head, unable to continue speaking.

Hiding under the bed, Li Cheng naturally understood that Zhang Qing had not had a child in the two years since their marriage because Li Tao had long been crippled by Boss Zhang of the foot massage parlor, so it was impossible for her to have a child.

The question is, could Jiang Fang really be completely unaware of all this?

Li Cheng was momentarily confused.

“Zhang Qing, actually, I’ve known about Li Tao for a long time!” He Fang suddenly said.

"Huh?" Zhang Qing was stunned.

“Yes!” He Fang stopped laughing, walked gently to Zhang Qing’s side, and lightly touched her hair. “A few days ago, I saw a hospital diagnosis here. It was Li Tao’s.”

Upon hearing this, Zhang Qing's eyes immediately welled up with tears.

"Zhang Qing, the reason I forced you to have a child is simply to preserve the Zhang family bloodline! You've really suffered these past few days!"

Zhang Qing choked back tears as she replied, "Mom, don't say that. It's fate. I don't blame anyone."

"Silly boy……"

As Li Cheng listened, he became increasingly terrified.

After a while, He Fang coughed softly, then said gently, "Zhang Qing, Li Tao has health problems, but you don't. Why don't you accept Mom's arrangement? Mom wants you to find a man and start over..."

"Mom, how is this possible?" Zhang Qing exclaimed agitatedly. "I'm not a baby-making machine!"

"Now that you and Li Tao are divorced and not having children, what do you want to do?" He Fang retorted without any politeness.

"Mom, no matter what, I just don't agree!" Zhang Qing refused on the spot.

“Zhang Qing, it’s not that I’m criticizing you, but you’re not young anymore. For the sake of our Zhang family’s future business and for your future happiness, you must give birth this year!” He Fang choked up as she spoke.

When Zhang Qing saw her mother crying, she was at a loss for what to do.

"Mom, I understand how you feel, but I can't suddenly accept another strange man!"

Li Cheng, who was hiding under the bed, was extremely excited.

The Zhang family is large and prosperous, but there is no one to carry on the family line. No wonder He Fang is so anxious, and even personally looks for a boyfriend for her married daughter.

If outsiders find out about this secret, it will be the biggest news in Dongguan!

Thinking of this, Li Cheng couldn't help but feel overjoyed. If his wish came true and he became Zhang Qing's boyfriend, how wonderful that would be...

Li Cheng vaguely felt that his chances were still quite high. Without realizing it, he got excited and raised his head, only to bump his head on the ceiling.

The sound wasn't loud, but you could still hear it if you listened carefully.
