Chapter 590: Bandits (19)

What is this person saying? The system quickly retrieved the person's information. It turned out that he was a warlord with power, money, and troops, and he was already fifty-eight years old this year, which was a few years older than her father, Liu Qiming. He actually wanted her to be his concubine? This was outrageous.

This is definitely not a sign of abnormality or some hidden illness.

Wen Wan didn't want to go.

"Father, I disagree. He's old enough to be my father. Aren't you the one who loves your daughter the most? Why would you push your daughter into a fire pit?"

Liu Qiming: "What do you mean by 'a pit of fire'? This is clearly a great opportunity. Your reputation is ruined now. What other respectable family would marry you? Although he is a bit older, he can give you a good life and protect you with wealth and honor for the rest of your life. Do you really want to get involved with a bandit and ruin the reputation of our Liu family?"

Wen Wan was speechless, and inwardly rolled her eyes several times.

"Father, put your hand on your heart and tell me, are you really doing this for me, or not for yourself?"

"You wretched child, I've raised you for so many years, and you dare to talk to me like that."

Wen Wan wanted to leave, but was stopped. Later, she locked herself in her room and had someone guard the door.

"Think it over carefully. Anyway, when the time comes, you have to get married whether you like it or not."

Wen Yan: "..."

Wen Wan sat on the bed. "System, is Liu Zhenyue really his biological daughter? Didn't he say that she was his most beloved daughter? She doesn't seem like it at all."

System: [A typical egoist. Family ties and daughters are no match for the benefits of marrying a warlord. Otherwise, why would she have betrayed the male lead's father and plotted to kill his entire family?]

"That's true, then let's run away quickly."

System: [How are you going to escape?] There are several layers of people guarding the outside, and we can't even get out of the main gate. How are we going to escape?

System: [Actually, you don't need to worry, the male lead will definitely come to save you.]

Wen Wan: "What if he doesn't come? After all, he might not come. He hates Liu Qiming so much. I'm Liu Qiming's daughter. How could he possibly come?"

Wen Wan felt that she could only rely on herself; relying on anyone else would be useless.

That evening, Wen Wan changed into more comfortable clothes and then asked the system for an invisibility potion. However, the system refused, stating, "[No, there's only one potion available, and you've already used it all. Besides, applying for this cheat ability is quite complicated; it'll probably take a month or two.]"

Wen Wan: "Are you lying to me? Why?"

The system's words were full of loopholes and were not credible enough to convince Wen Wan.

The system has stopped talking again.

Wen Wan was speechless. Whose system is this? Can I file a complaint?

System: [Host, we don't have a complaint section, so you can't complain about me.]

Wen Wan: "Get lost."

The news that Liu Zhenyue was going to marry Yao Fengxian spread quickly. The first person to react was Lei Ming, who rushed to his elder brother's side and said, "Brother, Liu Qiming is definitely forcing sister-in-law to marry. She must be locked up now. We have to go and rescue her right away."

"Wait a little longer."

"What are we waiting for? If we keep waiting, my sister-in-law will become a warlord's concubine." Lei Ming couldn't understand why his older brother could be so calm. Wasn't he in a hurry at all?

"Won't."

Lei Ming: "Big brother, you already have an idea?"

Looking at his second brother, he asked, "Second brother, you know about this too?"

Chen Ziming: "..." He knew it, but he still couldn't understand it.

"Just wait, your sister-in-law will be alright."

Lei Ming left, puzzled. Chen Ziming looked at his older brother and asked, "Big brother, are you sure you want to do this?"

Gu Weiming's idea was to completely separate Liu Zhenyue from the Liu family so that she would willingly stay by his side. This was a good opportunity to make Liu Zhenyue disappointed in the Liu family.

He prided himself on being smart, but he still couldn't understand the significance of doing this.

Gu Weiming looked at Chen Ziming: "Ziming, you know me very well. What I want, I will get by any means necessary."

Chen Ziming: "..."

It was precisely because she understood that she couldn't believe her older brother would actually fall for Liu Zhenyue. Although Liu Zhenyue was a good person, and Chen Ziming admitted that she was worthy of affection, she was Liu Qiming's daughter! And her older brother's hatred for Liu Qiming was extremely deep.

"What if Liu Zhenyue still compromises? After all, Yao Fengxian is older, rich, powerful, and influential. Would she really refuse him?"

Gu Weiming: "She will definitely refuse."

...

On the other hand, since the system wouldn't offer Wen Wan a solution, she had to figure it out herself. If the system was unreliable, she would rely on herself.

Wen Wan first pretended to be in unbearable abdominal pain, "System, you said you could fake my pregnancy, and now you're useful."

system:【……】

"You'd better think this through. If the male lead finds out, you won't be able to explain yourself."

"What's there to explain? Just say the baby was lost, won't that be enough?"

System: That's not that easy.

Wen Wan screamed, and the guards outside rushed in. "Miss, what's wrong?"

"I...I have a stomachache, get me a doctor, I'm in so much pain."

Those guarding her dared not joke around, and after telling them to stay, they quickly went to fetch Liu Qiming. Liu Qiming arrived soon and arranged for a car to take Wen Wan to the nearest hospital.

"Zhenyue, are you alright? Why did your stomach suddenly start hurting? Just bear with it, we're almost at the hospital. Dad won't let anything happen to you."

While acting, Wen Wan kept a close eye on Liu Qiming, and she really did look like a loving father. However, Wen Wan knew that what he was most worried about was not his daughter's safety, but how he would explain it to Yao Fengxian if something happened to his daughter.

He was quickly wheeled into a ward, where the doctor began the diagnosis.

"System, are you sure you can handle this?"

System: [Guaranteed.]

Liu Qiming waited anxiously outside, while Gu Weiming received the news immediately and rushed to the hospital.

He just didn't let Liu Qiming find out, but he was able to ensure that he received the news as soon as possible.

The doctor came out quickly, and Liu Qiming stepped forward, "Doctor, how is my daughter? Why did she suddenly have a stomachache?"

The doctor looked at Liu Qiming with some reproach, "Your daughter is more than a month pregnant, how could you, as the father, not know? She has some anemia and malnutrition, you need to pay more attention in the future. Luckily, it wasn't anything serious this time."

"What!!!"

Gu Weiming, disregarding Liu Qiming's presence, rushed over, asking, "Doctor, what did you say?"

"Who are you?"

"I am her husband, and my wife is pregnant?"

Doctor: "Yes, you should be careful in the future. Don't make the pregnant woman sad or upset, and make sure she gets enough nutrition. This is the most vulnerable time for a pregnant woman."

Liu Qiming stared wide-eyed at Gu Weiming, wondering why this man had suddenly appeared. "Gu Weiming, what are you doing here?" He then tried to hit Gu Weiming, but was stopped by Lei Ming. His men immediately restrained Liu Qiming, since Liu Qiming hadn't brought any guards in his haste.
