Chen Du acted quickly, and soon after returning, he drafted an agreement and sent it to Ye Zhao. Ye Zhao was amazed by his speed. She opened the agreement, looked at it, and replied that there were no problems: "No problem, just sign it and bring it to me for me to sign."
"good."
Ye Zhao glanced at the phone and tossed it aside, listening intently as Lin Yu chatted about gossip.
"I'm telling you, there are all kinds of people in this day and age. That mistress was so arrogant, you'd think she was the wife."
An hour ago, Cheng Yu said that the three of them hadn't gotten together in a long time, so she invited Lin Yu out. The three of them didn't eat much at all and just chatted about gossip.
Ye Zhao noticed she'd missed a sentence in the message, so she put down her phone and asked again, "Who did you say that person was?"
Lin Yu clicked her tongue in dissatisfaction and said, "I just said that the CEO of Risheng Group is having an affair with his secretary, causing turmoil at home and making a mess of the company. If this continues, bankruptcy is only a matter of time."
Cheng Yu suddenly said, "Hey, didn't his daughter marry into the Lu family? Doesn't he care about her?"
Lin Yu curled her lip and said, "Manage? With what means? Her father is courting death; he's already doing well enough to protect her mother."
"Is Lu Chuan just going to let his father-in-law run wild like this?"
"Hey, he's my father-in-law, not my biological father, what business is it of his?"
The original owner might know these people they were talking about, but Ye Zhao didn't know any of them, so she could only listen quietly.
Just then, a few people walked in from outside, attracting her attention.
She recognized the person in the lead; it was Shen Jiayi, whom she had just met. The people beside her, however, were arrogant and condescending, behaving in a way that was inexplicably annoying to the waiters.
Ye Zhao glanced at her and then looked away, pretending not to see her with her head down. However, Shen Jiayi noticed her first and her expression changed instantly. She turned around and walked straight towards her.
"What are you doing here?" Shen Jiayi asked with a frown. The people next to her also changed their expressions when they saw Ye Zhao.
Before Ye Zhao could speak, Lin Yu frowned and glanced at her, saying, "What does it have to do with you where I am?"
Shen Jiayi said in a harsh tone, "What business is it of yours if I ask Ye Zhao?"
Ye Zhao gave Lin Yu a look before turning to Shen Jiayi and asking, "Is there something you need?"
Shen Jiayi's expression was not good. Someone behind her couldn't wait to speak up: "Well done, Ye Zhao, you dare to treat Jiayi like this just because you're pregnant? You haven't even entered the Shen family yet, and you already don't know your own worth?"
"Exactly, doesn't she know who she is? She used to chase after Jiayi every day and we couldn't shake her off, but now that she's pregnant, she dares to treat Jiayi like this?"
"She hasn't even entered the Shen family's gate yet, and she dares to act so arrogantly. Where does she get her confidence?"
"It's from the baby in my belly..."
"So what if she has a child? I haven't seen President Shen say anything about marrying her..."
As she spoke, Shen Jiayi's expression grew increasingly smug, while Cheng Yu's face grew increasingly unpleasant. Seeing that Cheng Yu was about to lose her temper, Ye Zhao reached out and held her down, looked up at Shen Jiayi and the people behind her, and sneered, "Miss Shen has certainly raised a pack of good dogs. The master hasn't even said a word yet, and the dogs are already eager to protect their master."
"Pfft..." Lin Yu chuckled, not forgetting to silently give Ye Zhao a thumbs up.
Upon hearing this, the group became enraged and began to hurl insults at each other.
"Who are you talking to? Watch your mouth..."
"Ye Zhao, are you crazy? When it comes to Jiayi's dog, we can't compare to you."
"Exactly, they don't even look at themselves from before..."
"Who can be more sycophantic than you? Back then, you had to fawn over Jiayi a lot to get close to President Shen."
Ye Zhao smiled and looked at Shen Jiayi, saying, "Look, they've really started calling them dogs."
The group of people started cursing even more, using foul and harsh language, like street urchins swearing, completely lacking in manners.
Seeing Ye Zhao's calm and composed demeanor, and hearing the cursing and swearing behind her, Shen Jiayi was furious and shouted, "Alright!"
The group fell silent instantly, but Cheng Yu suddenly burst out laughing: "What a bunch of good dogs!"
Shen Jiayi looked at Ye Zhao with a grim expression: "I didn't know you had so many faces. Did you really think you could enter the Shen family just because you're pregnant? Wishful thinking!"
After she finished speaking, she turned and left. Her henchmen all stared at her with piercing eyes, and then followed her out.
The large restaurant suddenly fell silent. Fortunately, there weren't many customers, and no one was gossiping.
Lin Yu suddenly sighed and said, "I don't know how you could have been so close to someone like her before."
What can you do? It's all about getting closer to the depth, Ye Zhao thought to herself, but she changed the subject: "Hey, let's not talk about what happened before. Was what you guys were talking about really true?"
"Of course it's true. San'er even came to my place for a prenatal checkup! A grown man in his fifties or sixties and a beautiful young woman in her twenties, it's really disgusting to look at them together."
She sighed and said, "Xu Yuanyuan is really pitiful, having such a father. But fortunately, she got married, and Lu Chuan treats her very well."
"Didn't they say Lu Chuan was unwilling to get married before? How come he got married so quickly and even has a child?"
Cheng Yu lives abroad most of the year and doesn't know much about what's going on in this industry. On the contrary, the hospital and department where Lin Yu works are the most gossipy places.
Lin Yu looked around upon hearing this and said in a low voice, "They got married because of pregnancy, but fortunately, their married life is going well. Unlike Su Yue, who is currently going through a divorce with Meng Xiao!"
Cheng Yu looked up in surprise and asked, "What happened to them? I remember they were doing really well when they got married, and they seemed to have a good relationship."
Ye Zhao didn't know anyone, but that didn't stop her from listening to gossip.
"Sigh, Meng Xiao seemed like a pretty good guy. They were doing well for a while after they got married. I heard Su Yue got pregnant, but then Meng Xiao's first love came back from abroad. Their families had some business dealings, and before long, the two of them got together again. Su Yue got so angry that she had an abortion and wanted a divorce, but Meng Xiao absolutely refused. Now they're in a huge mess!"
Ye Zhao listened with great interest. She had seen this kind of drama far too many times. Next up was the scumbag who regretted his actions and started chasing after his wife in a heart-wrenching way. The long-awaited reunion between Shen Du and Xie Yao was different from this.
To be honest, she felt that she should abort the child so as not to affect the development of the relationship between the male and female protagonists, which would be the right choice. But ironically, as a college student who had never been married, she was a little reluctant to abort the child in her womb. Although she had said some angry words when she was suffering from morning sickness, she actually regretted it later. The arrival of Grandpa Shen gave her a reason.
Before transmigrating into the book, Ye Zhao was an orphan. Her parents had passed away when she was born, and her grandfather, who raised her, also passed away from illness when she was a teenager. She had few relatives and always felt envious when she saw happy families. After transmigrating into the book, she had no expectations for the Ye family, but she always felt a little reluctant to give up on the little life in her womb.
Ye Zhao thought, if Shen Du spends all his energy on the female lead in the future, then can she run away and have her own baby?
