Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

At this moment, Xu Wan suddenly realized that her life and death were all in Qiao Chen’s hands.

This man was playing her like a clown.

In front of him, she seemed to have no dignity at all. He did not care about her feelings.

He had been treating her like this ever since Old Master Qiao set the engagement.

When Old Master Qiao was still alive, Qiao Chen had never treated her nicely or politely, making her suffer the ridicule of the Qiao family’s servants and the other young ladies of the Qiao family.

And now he was toying with her.

Xu Wan slowly stood up and prepared to leave.

She never wanted to see this man again.

“Eh, wait a minute. Brother Chen, since you have already forgiven Miss Xu, why don’t we have a meal together? After all, Miss Xu used to be part of the Qiao family. Miss Xu, I was a little rude just now. Please don’t mind me. I am a frank person. Come, let’s have a meal together!”

Bai Zhen’s tone was warm. Seeing that Xu Wan was about to leave, Bai Zhen suddenly walked up to her and held her back. .

Xu Wan looked in disbelief at Bai Zhen, whose face had suddenly changed. Was there something wrong with this woman’s brain?

Just now, she was still cursing at Xu Wan, trying her hardest to not give her a way out. Now, she was asking her to eat together so affectionately?

“No need.” Xu Wan retracted her hand calmly.

Unexpectedly, Bai Zhen grabbed Xu Wan again. “Miss Xu, are you still angry at me? I know you were originally engaged to Brother Chen. I was the one who messed up your relationship with Brother Chen. You must have hated me, but Brother Chen and I are truly in love. Can you understand my quandary? I really love him. I didn’t mean to snatch him away from you…”

Bai Zhen sobbed as if Xu Wan had bullied her.

Xu Wan was baffled.

She didn’t care who Qiao Chen was with. Whether it was Bai Zhen or some random woman, she had no interest in this man at all.

“Let go of me. I don’t know what you’re talking about…” Xu Wan used her other hand to pull Bai Zhen away from her, wanting to leave quickly.

“Ah—” Bai Zhen suddenly cried out in shock. She stumbled and fell backward, almost hitting the corner of the table. Qiao Chen was quick to react and immediately held her back. Then, he pulled her into his embrace and asked anxiously, “What’s wrong?”

Bai Zhen looked up at Xu Wan in disbelief. “Miss Xu, I’ve already apologized to you. Even if you don’t forgive me, you didn’t have to be so rough on me! Brother Chen, look, my wrist is swollen!”

Bai Zhen stretched out her delicate wrist. Qiao Chen saw that it was red and swollen and his expression turned nasty immediately.

Xu Wan stood rooted to the ground in shock.

She didn’t push Bai Zhen at all! She just wanted this woman to let go of her.

On the other hand, Bai Zhen was so strong that she almost broke her wrist.

Why would she hit Bai Zhen so hard? She didn’t even know when the red mark on Bai Zhen’s hand appeared!

Seeing the fury on Qiao Chen’s brows, Bai Zhen leaned into Qiao Chen’s embrace and smirked.

Just now, she pulled Xu Wan and secretly pinched herself. Then, she pretended to be pushed by Xu Wan. This way, Qiao Chen would definitely not let Xu Wan off!

She would never let anyone take Qiao Chen away from her!

Qiao Chen helped Bai Zhen to her feet. Then, he walked over to Xu Wan and grabbed her hand. His grip was so strong that Xu Wan groaned in pain.

“She’s pregnant. Why are you pushing her?!”

Qiao Chen’s words hit Xu Wan like a bolt from the blue.

Pregnant? What did he mean? Bai Zhen was pregnant?

Xu Wan recalled that a few hours ago, she saw Qiao Chen and Bai Zhen at the entrance of the hospital. So… it was because Bai Zhen was pregnant.

Upon seeing Xu Wan’s ghastly pale face, Qiao Chen shook Xu Wan off. As he used too much strength, Xu Wan slammed on the cupboard, her body trembling from the pain.

“Xu Wan, I originally wanted to let you off for Grandpa’s sake. I didn’t expect you to be so ungrateful. I, Qiao Chen, never hit women. Today is my last time tolerating you. Don’t let me see you again!”

Qiao Chen suddenly saw Xu Wan grimacing in pain. A strange feeling flashed across his heart, but immediately, his overwhelming rage made him say these harsh words.

Xu Wan bent over and shielded her stomach with her hands in panic. It seemed like she could not stand up straight because of the pain.

Xu Wan had just bumped into the cupboard. Her first reaction was to touch her stomach subconsciously. She feared that something would happen to her children and did not care how much pain she was in.

“How are you feeling? Let’s go to the hospital to get examined.” Qiao Chen walked to Bai Zhen’s side and restrained his anger. His tone became gentler.

“It’s just a little painful. The child should be fine. You don’t need to trouble yourself. Brother Chen, I was so scared just now…” Bai Zhen fell feebly into Qiao Chen’s arms, crying miserably and fearfully..
