After I died, I became the white moonlight of the crazy villain.

The two tabloid reporters met my gaze and hesitated for a moment. It wasn't until I urged them that they found the right angle and took the picture.

I told them they could use these photos to report back, and that they should pretend they didn't see anything just now.

The two exchanged a glance and immediately nodded in agreement. After they left, Xu Qing turned to me and said, "You used me as a shield without even asking for my opinion?"

“We’re partners now, so it’s only right that we make a little sacrifice.” Since I learned that he and Ge Zeyu were old acquaintances, I naturally didn’t need to be polite, after all, we’re in the same boat now.

If we don't know who's behind this, then we should try to lure them out. I want to see what they can do after these photos are leaked.

As I was speaking, Ge Zeyu walked over, grabbed my other arm, and forcefully pulled me up from the sofa. His expression was quite disgusted. "I thought you had some good ideas just now, but who knew you would use yourself as bait again? Are you stupid? Who is he? What good can you do by getting involved with him? The Xu family is a very complicated place!"

He looked at me with a disappointed expression, and before I could retort, he pulled me outside, urging me to leave quickly.

Xu Qing's soft chuckle came from behind, and he raised his voice to tease, "If you didn't know better, you'd be urging someone to go back. If you didn't, you'd think you were jealous."

Ge Zeyu stopped and turned around to glance at him, saying that if he had nothing to do, he should deal with the land in the east of the city and the public opinion surrounding it.

Since the online reports of the corpse being found there, land prices have plummeted, causing the land in Xu Qing's possession to lose value as well.

Before I could even turn around and see the expression on Xu Qing's face, Ge Zeyu pulled me out the door and put me in the car.

When I got home, I heard my dad arguing with Bian Jiahui as soon as I entered the door, with Li Yaqin constantly trying to mediate.

My dad had a stern face and a very firm attitude. "You're still an unmarried girl. If word gets out that you're pregnant out of wedlock, how will you ever get married? This child can't stay!"

“Dad, no matter what, this child is your grandson, and the doctor said that my body is not suitable for abortion, otherwise it is very likely that both of us will die.”

With red eyes, Bian Jiahui hid behind Li Yaqin, who quickly tried to persuade her.

But my dad had clearly made up his mind. He said he would contact the best doctors, and if there weren't any in China, he would go abroad to find experts.

I stood at the door, not going in immediately. I had already guessed that my father would make this choice. Compared to his pride, what did an unborn grandson matter?

Moreover, Fu Xinyi clearly didn't want the child, so he was even less likely to keep it.

However, Bian Jiahui was clearly unable to accept it and burst into tears. When she spoke, she couldn't help but complain, "For so many years, I've acted as if I don't have a father. After finally getting a father, I thought you would protect me. I didn't expect that in your heart, there's only Jiang Wanying, isn't that right?"

"You won't let me get involved in company affairs, you won't be involved in arranged marriages, and now you don't even care whether I live or die. You don't care about family ties, but I do!"

No sooner had she finished speaking than there was a loud bang. My dad slammed his hand on the table, stood up, and raised his hand to slap Bian Jiahui.

Seeing this, Li Yaqin quickly stepped in front of him and grabbed his arm. "Jia Hui is talking nonsense. She's just too sad. Please don't take it to heart."

"Moreover, this child is not only your grandson, but also Grandpa Fu's grandson. In any case, we should ask the Fu family about him."

My dad forcefully pulled his hand back, angrily scolding Li Yaqin for being a woman's narrow-mindedness. At this moment, he suddenly remembered my mom's good points, "Do you think the Fu family just wants this child? If they did, they wouldn't have remained silent until now. Who suppressed those trending topics upstairs? Do you think it was me?"

"You haven't been in contact with the people and things in this circle, so don't use your foolish ideas to speculate about others. What does a child's bloodline matter? They can have as many as they want. Rather than valuing bloodline, they value the quality of the child. In this respect, you are no match for Mengru."

His words made Li Yaqin's face turn pale and then red. She opened her mouth several times, wanting to refute something, but ultimately swallowed her words back.

My dad doesn't care about her feelings at all. Li Yaqin is different from my mom. My mom has great value to my dad, whether it's my maternal grandfather's existence or the shares in my mom's hands.

When my dad wanted to lose his temper and break off relations, he had to consider things. But Li Yaqin, who was of lower status than him, he could say whatever he wanted without fear of revealing his true nature.

He subtly hinted that Li Yaqin should learn from him, not expecting him to be as good as my mother, but that she should still make connections in the industry and not be like a frog in a well.

Bian Jiahui, holding Li Yaqin's arm, looked up in disbelief, "How could you say that about me and Mom?"

My dad just snorted and told her to get some rest, that he would arrange things with the doctor, and that Bian Jiahui would go to the hospital with him tomorrow.

After watching the whole show, I slowly walked into the house. When Bian Jiahui saw me, her expression paused for a moment. She wiped her eyes hard and glared at me fiercely. "Aren't you very happy now? Fu Xinyi only wants to be with you. But don't be too happy yet. He just thinks you have some use. What you can do, I can do too."

Sensing the hostility emanating from her, or perhaps finding it somewhat ridiculous, I thought, "The way you're talking and acting right now, anyone who didn't know better would think I'm the one who got you pregnant!"

"You!" She looked at me angrily, speechless. Li Yaqin quickly stepped forward at this moment, grabbed her arm, and comforted her to go upstairs to rest.

"Go upstairs first. We can talk about it tomorrow. No matter what, you have to listen to your father."

Bian Jiahui wanted to say something, but Li Yaqin didn't give her the chance and pushed her directly into the room.

I went back to my room, washed up quickly, and lay down on the bed to drift off to sleep.

In the middle of the night, as I was drifting off to sleep, I suddenly heard some faint noises, as if someone was opening my room door. I opened my eyes abruptly.

At the same time, I clearly heard the door to the room open, and then a dark figure slowly walked in—
