Chapter 104 Pregnant?

"Second...Second Uncle, a friend has something to attend to, I'll be going out for a bit."

Liang Yizhi's gaze fell on him. It was just a casual glance, but it made Liang Yanchuan tense up instantly.

Time seemed to stand still for a few breaths.

Liang Yizhi spoke slowly and deliberately, "Don't we need to ask for anything this time?"

"Huh?" Liang Yanchuan suddenly realized and shook his head, "No need for you."

The car window slowly closed, and in the instant the bulletproof glass was completely shut, Liang Yanchuan seemed to see his second uncle's lips purse into a cold, hard line.

...

Liang Yanchuan took Yang Sao to a private clinic.

After reviewing Ms. Yang's medical records, the doctor quickly treated her.

"Oral medication alone has limited effect; it needs to be combined with intravenous infusion," the doctor said.

Mrs. Yang looked troubled. "But it's inconvenient for me to go out."

The doctor smiled knowingly, "Don't worry, the Third Young Master has already told me that I will arrange for a trusted nurse to come to your home every day to give you IV drips, and the news won't leak out."

Hearing this, Aunt Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

Outside the infusion room, Ji Ying withdrew her gaze.

Liang Yanchuan was smoking at the back door.

She walked over to him and said, "You didn't smoke before."

Liang Yanchuan immediately stubbed out the cigarette.

“Dr. Xu has issued me a certificate of amnesia, and he was able to deceive even Liang Weiyue. You can completely trust him.”

"Are you planning to never acknowledge Aunt Lin and Grandpa in order to protect them?" Ji Ying asked.

Liang Yanchuan was silent for a few seconds. “The Liang family is very complicated, and my mother is an impatient person. At least for now, we can’t acknowledge them.”

"Your grandfather developed a serious heart condition because of your faked death. How many four-year periods does a person have in their twilight years? I hope you will never regret what you have done."

After Ji Ying finished speaking, she turned her face to the side and looked into the distance.

Two hours later, Yang's IV drip finished and the bleeding stopped.

Liang Yanchuan took her back to the hotel.

“I might be being watched these days, especially by Aunt Yang…”

Before Ji Ying could finish speaking, Liang Yanchuan nodded and said, "Leave it to me."

The next day, Ji Ying made a special trip to a time-honored traditional Chinese medicine clinic and asked the senior doctor there to prescribe several blood-nourishing medicinal diets suitable for a woman in her third trimester.

Just as she stepped out of the traditional Chinese medicine clinic, her phone rang in her bag, and she quickly looked down to search for it.

At this moment, a Hongqi L8 stopped on the side of the road.

Inside the car, Xue Qin turned to Liang Yizhi, who was reviewing documents in the back seat, and said, "Boss, we've arrived at Tong'an Pavilion."

Liang Yizhi didn't even look up. "You're sick. Go get treatment."

"Mr. Liang!" Xue Qin's voice trailed off with anxiety. "The doctor said that if you continue this abstinence, the hormonal imbalance will lead to erectile dysfunction. By the time you find your wife, you won't even be able to stand up. How will you make her happy then?"

Liang Yizhi slowly lifted his eyelids. "Do I need you to observe and evaluate how I can make her happy?"

Xue Qin: ...

He glanced out the window and saw a familiar figure, then quickly turned his gaze away.

"That's Ji..."

Before she could finish speaking, Ji Ying was suddenly surrounded by several dark figures.

She tried to resist, but was pushed and dragged into a side alley.

Ji Ying, clutching the medicine bag from the traditional Chinese medicine clinic, stood against the wall, warily watching the strangers who seemed to have ill intentions.

"Ji Ying!" Gu Gong walked up to her from behind the group of people. "Where is Yang Liu?"

Who is Yang Liu?

Before she could finish speaking, Gu Gong reached out and grabbed her by the neck, roughly slamming her against the wall.

"Don't play dumb. Yang Liu has been a widow for many years and has lost contact with her family back home. You're the only person she's close to. Tell me, where have you hidden her?"

Ji Ying's head hit the cement wall, and her vision went black for a moment.

"So you're talking about Aunt Yang," she said with a cold smile. "She only worked at Platinum Bay for a few days and already knows me? I've already moved out. Now only she and Gu Yanchen are left at Platinum Bay. Aren't they even closer?"

Gu Gong had long harbored resentment towards Ji Ying, and now he had completely lost his patience.

"If you don't hand over the person, I'll take you somewhere where you can tell the truth."

After saying that, he grabbed her by the neck and was about to throw her to his men to capture.

Ji Ying's heart sank suddenly.

Although I have never truly experienced Gu Gong's methods, I know that falling into his hands would certainly not end well.

I absolutely cannot let him take me away!

The moment she was thrown away, Ji Ying suddenly reached out and dug her five fingers into Gu Gong's hair, gripping the roots tightly and pulling hard!

"ah--"

Caught off guard, Gu Gong doubled over in pain.

Ji Ying gritted her teeth and wouldn't let go, as if she wanted to tear his scalp off as well.

The surrounding henchmen immediately panicked and rushed forward to rescue her, but Ji Ying just wouldn't let go.

At this moment, Xue Qin stood at the alley entrance and deliberately cleared his throat loudly, but everyone was busy saving Gu Gong's hair and no one paid him any attention.

Xue Qin stamped his foot, took off his crisp, brand-new suit jacket, and rushed forward.

Only after grabbing the two good-for-nothings and throwing them out like tattered sacks did the scene come to an end.

“Miss Ji,” Xue Qin straightened her back and gestured with her chin toward the alley entrance, “My husband has been waiting for you for a long time, why aren’t you in the car yet?”

Ji Ying understood, threw away the tuft of black hair with the follicle in her hand, and walked straight towards the Hongqi L5 parked outside the alley.

"Stop her!" Gu Gong roared, clutching his bleeding scalp. "If you let her go today, all of you get out of here!"

However, with Xue Qin standing between them and Ji Ying, several of his men dared not rush forward.

Ji Ying took two steps, then turned back to Gu Gong and said, "You're a person with a brain too. It's common knowledge that Aunt Yang and I are close. If she comes to me with such a big secret, wouldn't she be walking into a trap? Instead of wasting your time here, you should eat two more pounds of walnuts to improve your intelligence. Maybe you can find her before anyone else."

After saying that, she ignored Gu Gong, whose temples were bulging with veins, and continued to leave.

Gu Gong watched helplessly as Ji Ying got into the back seat, then looked at Xue Qin with resentment, "Do you know who I am? Have you thought about the consequences of being my enemy?"

Xue Qin chuckled. "Let me give you a piece of advice: the person sitting in the car at the alley entrance is someone you can't afford to mess with."

Gu Gong's eyes widened like grapes, but he could only stare blankly.

Ji Ying got into the car, and the rich aroma of sandalwood mixed with the crisp scent of pine needles wafted towards her, causing her to unconsciously tighten her fingers on the leather seat.

Upon noticing Liang Yizhi in the back seat, she blurted out, "Why are you sitting here?"

He had saved her twice, and each time he had graciously given up his back seat to sit in the passenger seat, but this time was different.

Liang Yizhi slowly raised his eyes, his indifferent gaze calmly sweeping over her brows and eyes.

"What, am I supposed to sit under the car?"

Ji Ying was stunned for a moment.

Recalling his face that day, just like those who isolated her, made her heart ache.

"It's not impossible."

Liang Yizhi's eyebrows twitched slightly; this woman had a lot of opinions about him.

At this moment, Xue Qin returned to the car, completely oblivious to the tense atmosphere inside. He even joked with a smile, "Miss Ji, did you specially learn this hair-pulling skill from a master?"

Holding the bag of Chinese medicine, Ji Ying said sarcastically, "No way, it's all improvisation. Unlike some people who are skilled at barking and kicking someone when they're down, their ability to do so is honed through countless trials."

Xue Qin finally sensed the tense atmosphere inside the car, touched his nose, fastened his seatbelt, and remained silent.

Liang Yizhi's gaze swept lightly over the medicine bag in her arms, his calm momentarily disturbed by the three small words "ten weeks pregnant".

He asked calmly, "You're pregnant?"
