Chapter 359 The child will take my surname after birth.

Ji Ying pushed the ham and chicken porridge in front of her away, then picked up a tissue to wipe her mouth. When she met Liang Yizhi's gaze, she showed no sign of anything amiss.

"If you're so worried about her, go see her. It would be best if you could feed her medicine mouth-to-mouth and let her absorb a breath of your divine energy; she'd live like a turtle."

Liang Yizhi was taken aback by her words and was about to retort when he saw Ji Ying stand up and throw the tissues on the table.

"You two are so disgusting I can't eat."

After saying that, she ignored Liang Yizhi's gloomy face and walked away without looking back.

Jiang Ran's car was parked at the gate. Ji Ying sat in the back seat with a cold face, opened the glove compartment, took out a sour candy, put it in her mouth, and then lay down.

Jiang Ran slowly started the car.

"Sister Ying, Chairman Liang plans to bring his family to Beijing today to visit Mr. Liang."

Is Liang Weiyue coming?

My younger brother is sick, so as the older brother, I should come and visit him.

However, given Liang Weiyue's nature, since he came, he would definitely not leave empty-handed.

"This man is a typical opportunistic businessman; you should be careful," Jiang Ran warned.

"Yes, I will."

Ji Ying closed her eyes, the sour taste spreading on her tongue, but she couldn't suppress the bitterness surging in her heart.

Jiang Ran glanced at her in the rearview mirror and silently turned up the air conditioning temperature.

The car was parked downstairs at the Suji Bio Building.

Ji Ying opened the car door, and the head of the Precision Medicine Center was standing at the door.

Upon seeing her, he immediately came to greet her.

"Mr. Ji, this way please."

The person in charge led her to his office.

Ji Ying remained silent the whole way until she entered her office, at which point she took a transparent, sealed bag from her bag and handed it to her.

Inside the bag were the remains of the syringe that had been broken in Liang Yizhi's study last night, with some medicine still remaining on the inner wall of the syringe.

"Can you analyze the specific components of the drug in this? The sooner the better. Send all the data directly to my private email."

The person in charge took the bag, examined it carefully under the light, and looked serious.

"At this time of year, there is no loss of biological activity, so there shouldn't be any problem. Our center has state-of-the-art mass spectrometry and chromatography equipment, and we are very good at analyzing these trace residues. We can get the results in 72 hours at the latest."

"Thank you for your trouble."

Having achieved her goal, Ji Ying had no intention of lingering and turned to leave.

"President Ji," the person in charge called after her, his tone tinged with barely perceptible hesitation, "Madam Shen will be here soon. Would you like to wait for her?"

Ji Ying turned her head, gave a very faint smile, and said lightly, "No need, thank you for your trouble."

Ji Ying went downstairs, her steps a little unsteady because she hadn't eaten breakfast.

In the parking lot, Jiang Ran saw her and immediately ran over to help her up.

Are you alright?

Ji Ying shook her head.

"Nobody knows you're pregnant, so the food you cook is bound to be greasy. We need to come up with a solution."

Just as Ji Ying was about to respond to Jiang Ran, she heard the sound of a car door closing behind her.

"Yingying!"

Madam Shen jogged toward her, carrying a thermos lunchbox.

Ji Ying closed her eyes, turned around, and calmly looked at the other person's anxious face.

"I almost missed it... I heard from Dr. Lin this morning that you were coming, so I quickly brought you the soup I had made. Have you had breakfast? Are you experiencing any pregnancy symptoms?"

Ji Ying showed no emotion at being cared for, only replying briefly and distantly, "It's alright."

Madam Shen seemed to be used to her daughter's attitude and was not discouraged. She still handed the insulated lunchbox forward and softened her voice.

"Take it, at least it's hot. Mom has been through this before, this soup will make you feel better."

Ji Ying looked at the soup in her hand, but made no attempt to take it.

“The child will take my surname and has no relation to the Shen family, so you don’t need to worry about it.”

Madam Shen knew she had misunderstood, and quickly said, "The child is yours, you can let him take whichever surname you want. For the sake of the child, you should take good care of your health."

Ji Ying disliked Madam Shen, but she felt responsible for the child.

After a moment of silence, she took the insulated food container from Madam Shen's hand without expression, said "thank you" to her, and then turned and got into the car.

Madam Shen was not angry; instead, a glimmer of light appeared in her eyes.

"Remember to drink it while it's hot. No matter how busy you are at work, take care of your health. If anything happens, call...call your dad."

However, all that answered her was the taillights of a car disappearing into the distance.

Ji Ying was busy at the research and development center until after 5 p.m. when her phone on the table vibrated.

It was Lin Meizhen calling.

As soon as the call connected, Lin Meizhen's familiar yet slightly reproachful voice came through.

"Yingying, why are you still busy outside? Liang Weiyue and I have been at the Liang residence for most of the day with Yanchuan and Liang Jian. It's rare for the whole family to get together, and we're just missing you, the lady of the house."

Ji Ying paused for a moment, then calmly said, "Really? No one notified me."

Lin Meizhen immediately understood, "So Liang Yizhi is going to openly watch that wild woman rise to power and oust you?"

Ji Ying remained silent on the phone.

"Okay, I know, you wait."

Lin Meizhen stood on the front porch, glanced at Pang Yin who was bustling around inside like a mistress of the house, and hummed softly.

At this moment, Liang Yanchuan walked over.

"Mom, when is Yingying coming back?"

Just as Lin Meizhen was about to say, "That vixen has taken over the whole place, what's the point of her replying?", she saw Liang Jian, who had finished making a phone call in the yard, walking into the main hall.

She raised an eyebrow and responded to her son's words in a voice that was neither too loud nor too soft.

"Your second uncle has amnesia. He used to be such a meticulous person, but now he's completely confused about everything. Look, Yingying isn't coming back, and he doesn't seem to care much about her. Sigh, poor Yingying. If she had chosen another man back then, she would be so much happier now."

Liang Jian paused, hesitated for a moment, then turned around and walked over.

"Auntie, is Yingying still busy?"

Lin Meizhen shook her head. "Even if she's not busy, with the house in this state, how could she possibly eat with us? I'm not saying this to be mean, but your father and your second uncle are both wrong. No matter what, the Liang family reunion dinner should be hosted by the legal wife, not let some monkey running around like that."

Liang Jian paused for a moment, then said, "I'll go pick her up."

After saying that, he turned and walked out the door.

Liang Yanchuan looked at his mother, "You deliberately sent him to pick up Yingying?"

Lin Meizhen nodded. "Judging from the way your dad went up to lick the soles of the Pang family's shoes, he couldn't wait for Pang Yin, the mistress, to take his place. He doesn't want to be a decent person, but he's eager to become the Pang family's dog. This person's values ​​have never been right, yet God still favors him and lets him build such a huge fortune."

After criticizing Liang Weiyue, she returned to the main topic.

“If you go to pick up Ji Ying, your father will definitely be unhappy with you, but it’s different if Liang Jian goes. In his eyes, Liang Jian is the rightful heir, and he won’t care even if you go against his wishes. But we are different. My daughter and I have to be careful with every step we take now, and we absolutely cannot annoy your father at this critical juncture.”

Upon hearing this, Liang Yanchuan nodded.

Returning to the main hall with his mother, Liang Weiyue was talking to Pang Yin. Upon seeing them, he appeared somewhat displeased.

"Look how busy Miss Pang is with us, how come you and your son have been out for so long without coming to help?"

"Chairman Liang, it's alright. Although you are Yizhi's brother and sister-in-law, you are guests in Beijing, and Yizhi and I should treat you well."

Pang Yin's understanding nature made Liang Weiyue beam with joy. He turned to Liang Yizhi beside him and said, "Little brother, you've really struck gold."

Lin Meizhen suppressed her nausea and stepped forward, smiling, "My son and I were looking for our luggage just now. I specially brought some Yongfangzhai face cream for Miss Pang this time, but we have too much stuff and we don't know where we put it. We'll have to wait until we find it to give it to her."

Pang Yin quickly waved her hand: "Sister-in-law, you're too kind, really, there's no need."

Liang Weiyue nodded in satisfaction: "We're all family, so being polite will make us look more harmonious."

A blush rose on Pang Yin's face as she looked shyly at Liang Yizhi beside her.
