Just as Xu Yanshu was feeling completely confused, she suddenly received a call from Xie Junyang.

"Huanyu shouldn't cause any trouble for a while, but you still need to keep a close eye on her. If she makes any moves, you must tell me immediately!"

Does this mean it's because Xie Junyang did something?

Unconsciously glancing into the master bedroom, Xu Yanshu was somewhat surprised. In his memory, he had always doted on Xie Huanyu and rarely even scolded her.

These past few days she's been taking care of Lu Huai at the hospital. Considering Xie Junyang's deep-seated distrust of Lu Huai, Xu Yanshu instantly guessed what was going on.

Indeed, Xie Junyang had taken action against the Lu family more than once to stop his daughter from continuing her relationship with Lu Huai, but Xie Huanyu still kept getting close to the Lu family.

Anyway, it's none of her business.

Xu Yanshu shrugged nonchalantly, but then, remembering the look Xie Huanyu had given him earlier, he suddenly froze...

Could Xie Huanyu think that he was the one who tipped off Xie Junyang? Xu Yanshu's brow twitched, and he almost lost his temper.

What's this? Getting shot even when you're lying down? A wave of annoyance welled up inside me.

Once he confirmed that there were no more sounds coming from the master bedroom, Xu Yanshu's slightly furrowed brows relaxed.

I was tempted to knock on the door and ask what was going on, but after thinking it over carefully, I decided it was better to avoid trouble. If things went wrong, I might end up as cannon fodder in Miss Xie's rage.

...

The next morning, when Xu Yanshu got up and came out of the room, he found that Xie Huanyu had already dressed up neatly, with a fashionable outfit and exquisite attire, showing no signs of emotional breakdown.

"I'll be back at the company today to handle my business as usual, so you don't need to work overtime!" Xie Huanyu said to herself after noticing the man's figure.

Xu Yanshu nodded knowingly. He subtly observed Xie Huanyu. Although the woman seemed no different from usual, he felt that something was amiss.

"I'm planning to have a baby, and these days happen to be my ovulation period, so you need to come home as early as possible tonight!"

Cough cough—

Xu Yanshu was taken aback by the sudden shift in the conversation and coughed twice. Seeing that the other person didn't seem to be joking, he directly stated his position.

"I'm sorry, I have no plans to have children!"

She must have said that because Xie Junyang asked her to, but they're going to get divorced sooner or later, so there's no need to have a child at this time.

He also felt inexplicably resistant to this topic, which made him unconsciously recall Xie Huanyu having an abortion behind his back.

Upon hearing this, Xie Huanyu stopped applying lipstick and turned to look at Xu Yanshu with surprise and obvious inquiry in her eyes.

He used to really want a child, but now he says he has no plans?

Xie Huanyu coldly warned, "Xu Yanshu, you'd better stop before I change my mind!"

"I admit I really wanted a child before, but that's all in the past," Xu Yanshu said, nodding firmly after roughly guessing what the woman was thinking. "It's really not appropriate for us to consider having children now!"

He had been so eager to have a child with her because he cared about her, but in the end, he saw the abortion surgery form.

Now that I have completely lost all hope in this so-called bedmate, I naturally no longer have any expectations of him.

Seeing the man's serious expression, Xie Huanyu felt greatly humiliated, and anger gradually appeared on her fair face.

If it weren't for her father, she would never have brought this up with Xu Yanshu, but unexpectedly, he rejected her instead.

"Xu Yanshu, you've got guts!"

Xie Huanyu gritted her teeth and squeezed out a sentence, while giving the man a cold glare before storming out the door in her high heels.

Still has that fiery temper!

Xu Yanshu shrugged dismissively, completely unable to comprehend Xie Huanyu's anger.

She only brought this up with me because Xie Junyang had no other choice; she didn't genuinely want to have a child with me. Now that I've refused, isn't that just right?

...

At the same time, Lu Huai learned that Wang Wei's truck had been salvaged by the relevant authorities.

"Why did it take you so long to report something so important? Do you want to die?" Lu Huai was already annoyed, and when he heard this, his face turned completely dark.

According to his plan, Wang Wei's fall into the river was entirely an accident.

His 'friends' would happen to pass by, discover the body, and bury him in time. The family would also receive a substantial sum of compensation upon receiving the news, and the whole matter would have no chance of escalating.

"I... Miss Xie was here the whole time, so I didn't dare to come and disturb you!"

With a sinking feeling, the administrator replied tremblingly, then quickly added, "But don't worry, I've already appeased the family, and absolutely no word will get out!"

“We didn’t call the police at the time, so there shouldn’t be any major problems, right?” Lu Guangxiong said tentatively from the side.

Since things have come to this, we can only take it one step at a time.

Lu Huai waved his hand impatiently to send the person away. Fortunately, Xie Huanyu had not yet suspected anything.

But the thought that Xie Junyang still held leverage over him made him even more agitated.

But with that old geezer Xie Junyang obstructing things, they probably won't get any benefits in the short term.

"Son, when did you start employing so many people?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Huai realized he should have sent this person away earlier. His eyes flickered slightly, and he replied casually,

"Just six months ago, to make things easier, you shouldn't have made it public."

It's not that we have to keep this a secret, but Xie Junyang has now caught us red-handed. If more people find out about it after this issue is resolved, it could easily lead to more complications.

Lu Guangxiong nodded repeatedly, and couldn't help but think more highly of his son, Ah Huai, who was becoming more and more sensible.

"So, should I contact Huanyu in the next few days and try to find out what they're up to?"

By storming into the hospital and taking the person away, Xie Junyang clearly intends to completely sever ties with them, and who knows what other big moves he might make next.

“No, you absolutely cannot disturb her these next few days,” Lu Huai denied without hesitation, a meaningful glint in his eyes. “You probably won’t be able to contact her anyway!”

"The best course of action is to remain unchanged and wait for her to contact us first."
