"Do you know that there's a guard captain named Shen Yunmo in the Second Young Master's villa?" Ren Xuan asked mysteriously.
"He's just a guard captain, what does it have to do with me? Why should I know?" Xiao Linbo scoffed.
“That’s right, he’s just a small guard captain, not worth paying attention to. But this guard captain is no ordinary person. Not only is he young and knowledgeable, but he is also handsome and dashing.” Ren Xuan winked at him meaningfully.
"The most important thing is that I heard his relationship with our second young mistress is quite unusual."
"What? You mean Zhang Yanhua and he are having an affair? That's really interesting." Xiao Linbo laughed heartily.
He was Xiao Linran's cousin. Although he was from a collateral branch of the family, it did not prevent him from having the ambition to become a king or general.
"In short, I heard that Zhang Yanhua and his relationship is quite unusual." Ren Xuan's face was full of disdain. After all, in their eyes, no matter how handsome Shen Yunmo was, he was just a lowly ant. It was laughable that Zhang Yanhua would submit to such a person.
When Zhang Yanhua and Shen Yunmo were being all lovey-dovey, she never imagined that secrets could stay hidden forever, and that their affair had already been discovered by others.
"Moreover, Shen Yunmo suddenly disappeared without saying goodbye after Zhang Yanhua became pregnant. Zhang Yanhua was very distraught and dejected for a while. This was clearly because she was afraid of being exposed, so she fled to avoid punishment." Ren Xuan's face was full of malice.
"I knew it! I had secretly drugged Xiao Linran to make him infertile a long time ago, how could a child suddenly appear?" Xiao Linran said with a smug look on his face.
"We absolutely have to find a way to expose this. Then, our real opportunity will come!" Xiao Linbo was already fantasizing about becoming the heir.
At this time, Xiao Linran was unaware that he had long been drugged and rendered infertile.
Feeling depressed, he was enjoying a woman's company in her room!
Clothes were scattered all over the room, and the blankets on the bed were constantly rising and falling.
"Second Young Master, I also want to have a child for you, okay?" the woman said, her voice filled with jealousy.
This woman has a pair of slanted, fox-like eyes; she's definitely not someone to be trifled with.
At this crucial moment, Xiao Linran naturally agreed to everything.
"No problem! You give me one too!" Xiao Linran launched his final assault with a wicked grin.
A minute later, Xiao Linran put on his clothes, feeling refreshed.
I felt all the gloom in my heart vanish.
"Second Young Master, where are you going?" the woman called out anxiously.
"Don't worry about it for now! I need to go back to the hospital first." Zhang Yanhua is still in the hospital, and no matter what, she still has to maintain appearances.
"What? You're going back so soon? That's too sudden! Can't you spend more time with me?" The woman frowned, her face full of dissatisfaction, and said with a hint of reproach and complaint in her tone.
Her beautiful eyes were fixed on the man in front of her, as if she wanted to get a different answer from him.
Standing opposite the woman, Xiao Linran wore a cold and impatient expression. To him, the woman's words were an invasion of his freedom.
You see, Xiao Linran has always been a free and unrestrained person. He is used to acting according to his own will, so how could he tolerate others interfering? In addition, he has always lived a life of luxury and high status, surrounded and flattered by everyone. Now, hearing such words, his displeasure surged up like a tide.
"It's my business where I want to go and where I want to go. It's none of anyone else's business to discuss it. You better remember this!" Xiao Linran suddenly turned hostile upon hearing her words.
He has always been a womanizer, having seduced more than a hundred women.
Given his status, many women would approach him, but none of those relationships lasted long.
This woman was Xiao Linran's most favored person recently. Her appearance was charming and captivating, mesmerizing all who saw her. However, what truly made her stand out was not just her alluring looks, but more importantly, her worldly wisdom, her social skills, her ability to please others, and her exceptionally clever handling of situations.
Even before that, she had heard rumors that Xiao Linran and Zhang Yanhua's relationship was quite tense and that they didn't get along well. From then on, this shrewd woman secretly harbored an ambitious dream—to replace Zhang Yanhua and become Xiao Linran's rightful partner. To this end, she used all her charm and skill to please Xiao Linran, hoping to realize her wish as soon as possible.
If she could truly enter the Xiao family, she would never have to worry about food or clothing for the rest of her life.
At that moment, when she heard that Xiao Linran was about to visit Zhang Yanhua, a strong sense of displeasure welled up in her heart.
She couldn't help but wonder to herself, "How could he visit that woman with whom he has a rift when I am so favored? Does that mean my position is not yet secure enough for him to completely abandon her?"
Thinking of this, a hint of gloom appeared on her beautiful face, but she quickly regained her usual charming smile, though the smile did not reach her eyes.
"Alright then!" the woman said, looking aggrieved.
“Baby, do you know what’s most important to a woman?” Xiao Linran touched her face.
"What is it?" the woman asked, somewhat puzzled.
"The most important thing is to know your place! Never be presumptuous and reach into places where you shouldn't."
Xiao Linran got into the car with a smug look on his face, while the woman's face turned ashen.
Xiao Linran felt smug and triumphant. So what if the child wasn't his own?
At the very least, power and beauty are already within easy reach.
Unbeknownst to him, in some hidden corner, a conspiracy against the child was unfolding. The collateral branch of the Xiao family, having been suppressed for so long, was finally given an opportunity and was certainly not going to let it go so easily.
The Xiao family is about to be plunged into a bloody storm, which will involve many people, and it is unknown who will ultimately benefit.
None of this has much to do with Xiao Jingchen, who is far away in City A.
In fact, he didn't care about any of that; all he cared about now was Ye Ning and the child in her belly.
