The woman standing to the side quickly stepped forward and said to Shen Xingmian:

"Mr. Shen, please don't be angry with Miss Nan. She's pregnant."

When Shen Xingmian saw the woman, her expression softened. "It was her fault today. I'll talk to her properly when we get back."

Before the woman could say anything more, Shen Xingmian got into the car and drove off.

Si Yang stared indifferently at the departing car, exchanged a glance with the woman, and then turned and left.

"Hahaha... Shen Xingmian, is acting really this fun?"

Nan Zhi lay on the back of the mountain, laughing uncontrollably. Originally, she was still unsure of Si Yang's intentions today, but when she saw Shen Xingmian and that woman in the restaurant, she suddenly understood.

Shen Xingmian had mentioned to her before that a woman was in charge of the opportunity to cooperate with the Shen family and was interested in him.

After investigating, Shen Xingmian discovered that the person was a newly hired employee. She suspected that there was something wrong with him, so she kept her distance from the woman for a few days. Who knew that Si Yang would actually make a move today?

Shen Xingmian, who was in front, said helplessly:

"Stop laughing, did I hurt you just now?"

God knows how worried he was when he pulled Nanzhi, afraid that he might accidentally hurt the child.

Nan Zhi laughed until her stomach hurt. She waved her hand and said, "It's nothing serious. You controlled your strength. It was just our impromptu performance just now. Was that okay?"

The two acted entirely on their own, without prior planning. However, the situation just now was too coincidental, so they both suspected that Si Yang was trying to drive a wedge between them. Since that was the case, they decided to let him succeed first.

"No problem, but we need to be careful when we get home. The fewer people who know about this, the better. I'm sorry to trouble you during this time."

Shen Xingmian glanced at Nanzhi through the rearview mirror and still felt sorry for her. Even if it was an act, he couldn't bear to see Nanzhi sad.

Nanzhi nodded, "I know, let's continue the performance after we get off the bus."

Si Yang has a powerful background and considerable abilities. Most importantly, the more people who know about him, the more likely problems will arise. Nan Zhi and Shen Xingmian are well aware of this, and Gu Ying has also disappeared without a trace. They dare not be careless in the slightest.

Once that person realizes their purpose, it might be detrimental to Gu Ying.

......

Several days passed, and Nan Zhi and Shen Xingmian argued incessantly whenever they were at home.

This alarmed Nan's parents, as well as Old Man Shen, and several of Xu's uncles and brothers.

"Get out, Shen Xingmian, get out of here. I don't want to see you."

Nan Zhi threw a bunch of photos at Shen Xingmian's face, furious to the extreme.

The photos slapped Shen Xingmian's face and fell to the ground. Each photo was an intimate picture of Shen Xingmian and that woman. Shen Xingmian stared at Nan Zhi with a grim expression. "If anyone should get out, it's you. This is my house."

Nan Zhi burst into tears of anger. She cried uncontrollably, feeling wronged. Shen Feiang, standing to the side, was also crying. He was both scared and sad. For several days in a row, every day when he came home from school, he would see his parents arguing, saying things like that their children were seeing each other.

He just called his grandparents to tell them about the situation at home and that they would be arriving soon.

The moment Nan's parents entered the door, they heard Shen Xingmian's words.

Their expressions immediately darkened, and Nan's father spoke with a strong voice:

“In that case, we can’t stay at your house any longer, Zhizhi. Come on, let’s go home with Dad.”

Nan's father walked to Nan Zhi's side, reached out and pulled his daughter's eyes, which were red-rimmed. Nan Zhi looked at her parents with a wronged expression, then looked back at Shen Xingmian, her pain evident in her eyes. "Fine, I'll get out of here now."

After saying that, he turned to Nan's father and said, "Dad, let's go."

Upon hearing this, Shen Feiang burst into tears. He grabbed Bai Yarou's clothes and cried, "Grandma, are you taking Mom away? What will I do?"

Bai Yarou was utterly disappointed in Shen Xingmian at this moment. She looked down at Shen Feiang, the child was innocent, and stroked his hair. "Feiang, Grandma is taking your mother home for a few days. Study hard, okay?"

Shen Feiang held back his tears, rushed over and hugged Nanzhi's legs, shaking his head and saying, "I don't want Mommy to leave, sob sob, don't... go... Mommy."

Nan Zhi felt distressed seeing Shen Feiang so pitiful, but she couldn't afford to reveal any flaws now.

She reached out and pulled Shen Feiang away, saying, "Feiang, this is no longer Mom's home, but Mom will visit you at school."

After saying that, he walked away.

Nan's parents glanced at Shen Xingmian indifferently, then followed.

Bai Yarou could see the photos on the ground clearly, but she really didn't know what to say. Their Nan family didn't have the overwhelming power of the Shen family. If they were to clash with them, it would be like throwing an egg against a rock. Besides, Zhizhi was pregnant and couldn't be upset.

After Nan Zhi and the others left, Shen Xingmian frowned, feeling an urge to chase after them and bring them back.

"Dad, why are you doing this to Mom?"

Shen Feiang's face was streaked with tears. The little child looked at him with hatred. Shen Xingmian clicked her tongue, then glanced at him indifferently, said nothing, and turned to go upstairs to her bedroom.

Seeing that he was being ignored, Shen Feiang felt even more sad and resentful. He collapsed to the ground. His mother didn't want him anymore, his father had a new woman, and he had a stepmother.

Thinking of this, the child buried his head and cried uncontrollably.

After returning to the Nan family home, Nan Zhi calmed down considerably. Soon after, Xu Chaoci and the others arrived.

Nanzhi still had tear stains on her face, and she felt extremely distressed looking at her uncle and cousin.

“That bastard Shen Xingmian, Zhizhi, don’t worry, your uncle will definitely teach him a lesson for you.”

Upon hearing this, Nan Zhi's tears welled up again. Xu Chaoci wiped away her tears and frowned as he spoke:

“Zhizhi, you still have us. After the baby is born, our whole family will love it. It’s not worth crying for someone like that.”

"Cousin, I know, but... he's clearly having an affair. I was so blind."

Nan Zhi covered her mouth and choked out a sob, which intensified everyone's hatred for Shen Xingmian. The person they cherished was treated so badly by Shen Xingmian.

Xu Chaoci had already made up his mind and decided to teach Shen Xingmian a lesson.

Nan Li and Xu Qingzhou were unaware of this matter. Nan Li was filming in another city, and Xu Qingzhou, bored, followed him. He is now an excellent e-sports player and has an extremely good relationship with Nan Li, almost becoming inseparable.

"Zhizhi, even if you get divorced, your mom and dad will support you."

After much deliberation, Nan's father concluded that since Shen Xingmian no longer loved his daughter, divorce was the best option for her.

Nanzhi: "......"

It seems like this act has gone too far. She's a little worried for Shen Xingmian, afraid that it will be difficult to explain to her family later.

The news of the problem between Nan Zhi and Shen Xingmian reached Old Master Shen's ears the next day. He was so angry that he almost fainted. He summoned Shen Xingmian to his home and gave him a severe scolding.

He was also asked to go to the Nan family to bring Nan Zhi back, but Shen Xingmian resolutely refused.
