Chapter 174 Happy Birthday, Brother Beichen

"Thump, thump, thump."

There was a sudden knock on the car window.

A loud, clear voice rang out from outside: "Checking for drunk driving!"

Gu Xingnian's mind went blank for a moment. She quickly broke free from him and hurriedly opened the car door.

She peeked out, saw the people outside, and froze.

"dad"

Fu Beichen also called out, "Uncle Sheng."

Sheng Chengjun, with a stern face, said to his daughter, "Niannian, come back with me. It's dark and windy outside, and there are many wolves. Don't go out after dark from now on."

She nodded, then ran off without looking back.

Fu Beichen's frustration suddenly surged into his head, making him feel like he was about to suffocate.

So, just a little bit off, so... what was her answer?

He was typing furiously, his fingers hovering over the screen.

But she never replied.

After a while, the car slowly started and left the Sheng family mansion.

Gu Xingnian stood in the room for a while when she suddenly heard a faint sobbing sound.

Without thinking twice, she rushed to Sheng Weiwei's room.

Pushing open the door, I found her curled up in the corner, her head buried in her knees, her body trembling, sobbing uncontrollably.

She was thinking about Zhan Xiao again.

She ran over and gently hugged her. "Weiwei, get up. Don't sit on the ground; it's cold."

Sheng Weiwei looked up, tears welling in her eyes, her gaze filled with an inescapable pain. "I miss him."

"I should...trust him."

"But now there's no chance."

Gu Xingnian helped her to the bed and carefully covered her legs with a blanket.

"Weiwei, do you plan to keep this child?" she asked seriously.

Sheng Weiwei was stunned for a moment, recalling what Fang Li had told her before she left: that Mr. Zhan had almost chopped off the doctor's hand in order to save the child, and that he had stayed by the bedside for a day and a night.

Therefore, he cherished this child very much.

She nodded emphatically, her tone resolute, "I want to keep him, I want to give birth to the child."

Gu Xingnian patted her hand, "Do you know that if the mother is too heartbroken, it can increase the risk of birth defects in the fetus, cause miscarriage, or lead to fetal ischemia and hypoxia?"

Sheng Weiwei's eyes widened in fright, and she even stopped sobbing.

"For the baby's health, we shouldn't be sad so easily in the future. We'll make up for our sadness after the baby is born, okay?"

Is sadness something that can be kept for later?

Sheng Weiwei was suddenly amused by her.

“If you want to keep this child, the prerequisite is that the baby must be healthy, right?” She gently stroked her hair.

"Actually, you are not without anything. He left you the most precious thing. You have to get through this difficult time on your own."

"Niannian." Sheng Weiwei sniffed and leaned into her arms.

“Number Seventeen, he didn’t leave. He’s always been here, in your heart, watching over you and the baby from heaven.” Gu Xingnian gently patted her back.

It was so hard to finally get her to sleep.

Back in my room, my mood grew even heavier.

She couldn't imagine what she would be like today if she had lost Fu Beichen back then.

Her phone kept vibrating. When she picked it up, she saw that he had already sent her more than a dozen messages.

She looked for a while, but didn't reply to any of them.

"Give yourself to me!" That ambiguous statement.

It disturbed her peace of mind...

The next day, at noon.

Wearing oversized sunglasses, Sheng's mother held Gu Xingnian's hand with her left hand and Sheng Weiwei's arm with her right. The adorable Li Qingning was also by her side. The four beautiful women with different styles walked down the street, attracting a 200% head-turning rate.

She was in a great mood today, her chin held high, radiating an aura of "my daughter is the best."

Just as they were about to step into Yun MALL, the most luxurious mall in Haicheng, the security guard at the entrance stretched out his arm and blocked Sheng Weiwei and Gu Xingnian's way.

"I'm sorry, ladies."

The security guard was expressionless, and his voice sounded like it was programmed.

"You are blacklisted users of Fu's and cannot access Cloud MALL for the time being. Please go elsewhere."

Sheng's mother slapped off her sunglasses, revealing a burning anger beneath her meticulously made-up face.

"What did you say?"

Who's on the blacklist?

The security guard glanced down at the device in his hand; the automatic identification system on it was flashing a red light.

"It's Ms. Sheng Weiwei and Ms. Gu Xingnian."

Gu Xingnian quickly pulled her mother back from her outburst, "Mom, let's go to another house."

She was thinking about whether she should pick out a birthday present for him.

Now we can't even get through the door.

Sheng's mother's temper flared up instantly, and she started cursing.

"That little bastard Fu Beichen dares to put you on his blacklist?"

Call him! Call him now!

Sheng Weiwei quickly grabbed her mother's other arm and whispered, "..."

"Mom, forget it, let's go to another store. It's not like we don't have money, we're not afraid of not being able to buy good things. Losing such a big customer like us is a loss for the Fu family!"

The commotion at the entrance wasn't too loud, but the four people were so eye-catching that a crowd quickly gathered outside.

A young girl in the crowd screamed.

"Is that N Goddess? My goodness, she's so beautiful and has such an amazing aura!"

The person next to her immediately chimed in: "Yeah, yeah, how could she have been blacklisted by the Fu family? Didn't she just support Little D? This President Fu is so heartless, he's practically discarding her after she's served her purpose!"

As the discussions grew louder, Gu Xingnian, fearing it would cause unnecessary trouble, quickly pulled Sheng's mother away.

Before long, the topic of #NGod was added to Fu's blacklist# quickly spread online, along with various speculations, and became a hot topic throughout the circle.

"President Fu, something terrible has happened! Look!"

Lin Qi, phone in hand, practically stormed into the CEO's office.

Fu Beichen looked up from the document and took the phone.

On the screen were photos of the entrance to Cloud Mall and offensive online comments.

His face turned green instantly.

How did she end up on the Fu family's blacklist?

No wonder.

No wonder she didn't stay at a hotel under the Fu Group in Maduri, but could only stay at that small, run-down hotel, and was almost kidnapped at night!

The thought of the danger that night made his aura incredibly low, and his handsome face was filled with rage.

"check!"

"When did this happen?"

Lin Qi typed rapidly on the computer and quickly displayed a date.

Fu Beichen narrowed his eyes. That date... he remembered it. That was the day Jiang Kexin called him in tears, saying that a woman had tried to steal her dress in the store, causing her immense grievance.

It's her again.

She took advantage of me again!

He clenched his slender fingers so tightly that the veins on the back of his hand bulged.

"Buzzing—"

The phone on my desk vibrated, displaying a number I knew by heart.

He swiped to answer the call, and a sweet, coquettish voice came from the other end.

"Happy birthday, Brother Beichen. I'm back. I'm at Jinse. Can you have a meal with me?"

A cold smile curved his lips, and his voice was devoid of any emotion.

"You wait."

After hanging up the phone, he strode out, but when he reached the door, he suddenly turned back and coldly uttered a sentence.

"Issue a statement."

Shortly after, the Fu Group issued a bombshell statement on its official website.

The claim that Ms. Gu Xingnian was blacklisted by the Fu Group is purely a system malfunction and completely unfounded. To express our apologies, the Fu Group has decided to transfer ownership of all 433 of its global cloud malls to Ms. Gu Xingnian free of charge. We thank her for working hand-in-hand with Xiao D and for their continued support.

One stone stirs up a thousand waves.

433 Cloud Mall stores, that's an asset worth hundreds of billions, and President Fu just gave it away like that?

He spoils his ex-wife way too much!

Jiang Kexin stared intently at the statement on her phone screen. Back then, because of a dress, she had made Fu Beichen block that woman, and now she regretted it to the core.

My eyes welled up and tears fell.

Why does Brother Beichen spoil her like this?

How far have they progressed?

At this moment, at Jinse, the most upscale private restaurant in Haicheng.

With her three daughters, Sheng's mother finally sat down in the private room.

As soon as she sat down, Qingning took the menu and quickly flipped through it, her mouth watering just looking at the pictures.

I heard that the owner of "Jinse" is the same person who previously owned "Jinxiu Nanrong," which was shut down. He has now created this top-notch restaurant. It's true that gold shines at any time.

Instead of getting angry, Sheng Ma turned her anger into appetite, and she had Qing Ning order a large table of dishes.

Before all the dishes were served, Sheng Weiwei saw the news on her phone and excitedly handed the phone to Gu Xingnian.

"Niannian, look! You've become a major shareholder of YunMALL!"

Gu Xingnian looked at the statement and was somewhat surprised.

Isn't his behavior a bit too outrageous? I've seen people give away houses and cars, but I've never seen anything this extravagant...

Sheng Weiwei clicked her tongue in amazement: "President Fu is really generous. I think you can be on this blacklist a few more times. Next time, I'll just give you the Fu Group."

As soon as he finished speaking, the waiter brought over a bowl of clear fish soup.

As soon as Weiwei smelled the fishy odor, her stomach churned. She quickly covered her mouth, turned around, and ran outside.

"I'll go out and take a look." Gu Xingnian was worried and immediately followed him out.

Aunt Sheng watched her retreating figure with a puzzled expression. Wasn't this fish soup her favorite drink? How come...

Something's not right.

She slammed down her chopsticks, alarm bells ringing in her head.

In the corridor, Sheng Weiwei was vomiting violently next to a trash can.

Gu Xingnian gently patted her back, and after she calmed down, she helped her walk towards the private room.

As we passed by the next private room, the waiter opened the door to serve the food.

Through the crack in the door, she saw a familiar, tall figure from behind.

Fu Beichen!

And... Jiang Kexin!

Jiang Kexin reached out and hugged his waist tightly, pressing her face against his chest. He was turned to the side facing the door, so her expression was not visible.

Gu Xingnian froze instantly.

Jiang Kexin is back?

them……

Suddenly, a strong feeling of nausea surged up from her stomach. She pushed Sheng Weiwei away and ran towards the bathroom.

Inside the private room.

Jiang Kexin's eyes were red, and as soon as she saw Fu Beichen, she couldn't help but hug him.

"Brother Beichen, please let me go back to Haicheng. I don't want to stay abroad anymore. I'm all alone there, with no one to rely on."

Fu Beichen reached out and expressionlessly pulled her arm away from his waist, his eyes as cold as ice.

"I heard that the Bai family has accepted you. Since you are the eldest daughter of the Bai family, how could you be all alone?"

Jiang Kexin stiffened, her expression somewhat forlorn, her voice weak.

"But all I want is to stay by your side."

"There is no possibility between us anymore." Fu Beichen's words were like a knife, piercing straight into her heart.

Jiang Kexin's eyes welled up with tears. "I know you don't love me anymore... I just wanted to come back and spend your birthday with you."

He looked at her, his voice devoid of any warmth.

"I can let bygones be bygones regarding what happened before." He was referring to the matter of blacklisting Gu Xingnian.

"We must leave Haicheng tomorrow."

After saying that, he turned and left without looking back.

As he left, no one noticed that he was holding a strand of hair that he had intentionally pulled from Jiang Kexin's head in his palm.

He wanted to see who the real daughter of the Bai family was.
