Zhan Jingting raised an eyebrow. "You know I rarely get angry with you. The fact that you said that means I'll definitely get angry about what you're about to say."

Qiao Wanwan hugged his arm. "I want you to go to the hospital for a checkup."

"Investigate what?"

"chromosome."

Zhan Jingting immediately realized, "There's no need for that."

“Of course it’s necessary,” Qiao Wanwan said. “Although your body is no longer abnormal and your blood tests are the same as Eleven’s, showing no lesions, which means you’re cured, I still want to confirm whether your chromosomes have been altered. If they have, it means you’re really cured.”

“Now that you’re cured, why bother checking?” Zhan Jingting patted her hair. “Wanwan, if you still want children, we’ll have them. I’ll love them whether it’s a son or a daughter.”

“It’s not a matter of liking or disliking,” Qiao Wanwan explained. “I want to know if the Zhan family can really change their fate of only having sons.”

"I believe you." The man's eyes were deep and unfathomable. As he kissed the corner of her lips, he casually snatched the book from her hand and tossed it to the ground. "I can prove it myself..."

Qiao Wanwan: "......"

"Zhan Jingting... um..."

Not only did Qiao Wanwan fail to persuade him to go to the hospital, she was also kept up until midnight, and in the end she didn't even have the strength to lift her hand to turn off the light, and she fell into a deep sleep.

......

The next morning, Qiao Wanwan didn't wake up until noon.

She was exhausted last night and it took her a while to recover before she got up to wash up.

As soon as she came downstairs, Cheng Zaozao greeted her, "Sis, you're up?"

"Hmm, where's Jingting?"

“Brother-in-law went to the Imperial View Group. He told us not to disturb your sleep,” Cheng Zaozao said. “Brother Lixuan called you and said your phone was off, so he called me instead.”

Did he say what it was about?

"Yes, he said that I had been missing for so long before, and although my brother-in-law suppressed the rumors, there were still all sorts of things being said outside. Plus, Sun Chen, whom you saved, looks so much like me, so there were even more rumors. So he wanted me to come forward and clarify things, firstly to reassure the fans, and secondly to hope that everyone would stop talking about Sun Chen and let the deceased rest in peace."

“Li Xuan’s words make sense. You’ve suddenly disappeared for so long, you should give your fans who care about you an explanation,” Qiao Wanwan said. “But at this time, you can’t leave Wutong Bay easily.”

"Brother Lixuan said that the press conference can be held at a hotel under the Dijin Group, which would be safer, and bodyguards will accompany me throughout the process to protect my safety."

Qiao Wanwan thought for a moment and said, "How about this, I'll have Jingting make arrangements so that you can only leave Wutong Bay on the premise that your safety can be guaranteed. Otherwise, even the most important matters will have to be postponed."

"Okay, I'll listen to my sister."

Qiao Wanwan called Zhan Jingting and told him about it. Surprisingly, he didn't object.

She entrusted Jiang Dong with the task of protecting Cheng Zaozao, and the time was set for the morning of two days later.

Not entirely at ease, Qiao Wanwan followed Cheng Zaozao to the Platinum Palace after she left Wutong Bay.

“Madam, Assistant Jiang has made thorough arrangements; you don’t need to go in person,” the bodyguard in the front seat said.

"It's safer for me to go with him, and I can also see Lixuan. I haven't seen him in a long time."

"I see."

The presidential suite in the Platinum Palace was Zhan Jingting's private suite. After Qiao Wanwan went in and sat down on the sofa, the bodyguard quickly turned on the projector on the wall.

The press conference hadn't started yet; the footage shown was from the on-site surveillance camera.

"Madam, except for the restrooms, all public areas of the hotel are covered by surveillance cameras, including the stairwells. Any suspicious person will not be able to escape our surveillance, so you can rest assured."

"That's good."

A short while later, Wen Lixuan arrived. "Qiao Qiao, it's been a long time."

Qiao Wanwan glanced behind him and asked, "Why didn't you bring bodyguards? Have you forgotten that the mastermind behind this might be targeting you?"

"I have bodyguards with me, they're waiting at the door. This is Zhan family territory, how could anything happen to me?"

Qiao Wanwan smiled. "Sit down. How have you been lately?"

"The same as always."

"Thank you for arranging today's press conference so early. I've been quite busy lately and didn't even think of that."

Wen Lixuan took a sip of hot tea and said, "You don't follow the entertainment industry, so it's normal that you don't know some of the gossip. I'm different."

"She really should show up, and she should also explain Sun Chen's situation clearly to quell the rumors."

“Yes, it is what we living people should do to let the deceased rest in peace.” Wen Lixuan asked, “I heard from Zaozao that the mastermind behind this has appeared and even attacked Wutong Bay? In a society governed by the rule of law, how dare he be so rampant.”

“This kind of person disregards the law; what wouldn’t he dare to do?” Qiao Wanwan said. “But don’t worry, he didn’t gain anything from attacking Wutong Bay; instead, he lost a lot of people. According to Jing Ting’s estimate, he doesn’t have many people left who can continue to work for him.”

"That's good, but you all must be extra careful."

"Yes, I do. I rarely go out now."

Wen Lixuan smiled and said, "You went out to protect Zaozao. Even if you arrange for more people to protect her, as long as you are there, there will be several times more people protecting you, and the safety factor will naturally be higher."

"I can't let anything happen to Zaozao again." Qiao Wanwan said with lingering fear, "It's already a miracle that she came back safely after being arrested last time."

"Yes, then I won't treat you to dinner later. As soon as the press conference is over, you should head back to Wutong Bay."
