The baby in the belly?!
Shao Jingque...she...is pregnant? !
It was as if a flash bomb exploded in Lu Zhan's brain. Almost in an instant, everything in front of him turned white and he could no longer hear anything. He froze in place as if he had been acupunctured.
It took him a while to find his voice again, and he struggled to ask the words that were stuck in his heart:
"She...is pregnant?"
Wang Tao was shocked. He never expected that Lu Zhan didn't know about this.
He thought that after so much time had passed, Shao Jingque must have told Captain Lu the news long ago. He didn't expect that the two of them were in such a complete cold war that they couldn't even bear to tell each other such an important thing.
He said that if Captain Lu knew that Sister Jingque was pregnant, why would he still be in a cold war with her like this? It turned out that he was kept in the dark!
"Captain Lu, hasn't Sister Jingque told you yet? She's already over three months pregnant and needs someone to take care of her. You mustn't get angry with her anymore. Pregnant women should stay in a good mood. It's good for the baby in their belly!"
More than three months...
Lu Zhan regained some sanity from the chaos. Three months ago, he had just received the mission and was about to go to Henan Province for disaster relief. At that time, Shao Jingque was still his fiancée. So the child in her belly... was his?!
So what's going on with her and Qi Shengzhi now?
Could it be that she felt that he didn't want her anymore, so she just found a stepfather for his child?
How can that be possible?!
The child is his, and the wife is his too!
At this moment, Lu Zhan's expression changed from the despair of the previous second to a bright and radiant look in his eyes.
He held Wang Tao's hand tightly and shook it again and again:
"Wang Tao, thank you for telling me this!"
Wang Tao smiled innocently. In his opinion, Captain Lu's slightly exaggerated reaction at the moment was understandable. After all, he must have been very excited to know that he was going to be a father soon. If it were him, he might even cry with joy.
"You're welcome, Captain Lu. The most important thing is to comfort Sister Jingque. I'm still looking forward to your child's full moon banquet!"
Lu Zhan nodded seriously. Wang Tao was right. He had wasted too much time before. He had to win back Shao Jingque's heart immediately.
"I know! I'll go find her right away!"
Lu Zhan's face was filled with uncontrollable joy. After saying this, he turned around and ran out the door.
Wang Tao nodded with satisfaction. His father once said that it is not shameful for a man to admit his mistakes actively. This is the way to show his love for his wife!
Seeing Lu Zhan's back disappearing outside the gate, Wang Tao suddenly remembered something and slapped his thigh in frustration.
Sister Jingque has moved into the new house with Ding Ling today. Captain Lu definitely doesn't know about this yet. Where can he find anyone now?!
......
It was completely dark, and it was extremely cold outside in Ning City on a winter night. There was no one to be seen on the street.
At that time, television had not yet become popular in thousands of households. People who lacked entertainment at night were accustomed to going to bed early and crawling into warm beds to sleep. There were few windows on the streets with lights on.
The lights in the windows of No. 1 Wuhuai Street were also turned off at this time.
When Qi Shengzhi returned to the room from outside, Yue Feiying had already closed her eyes and fallen asleep.
Maybe it was because she hadn't slept well these past few days, and today when she knew Qi Shengzhi was right next to her, she relaxed and fell asleep quickly.
Qi Shengzhi couldn't bear to wake her up again, so he washed up and tiptoed to the bed. Just holding her in his arms was enough to make him feel happy and satisfied.
The sleeping Yue Feiying seemed to sense a warm embrace beside her, so she squeezed into his chest like a kitten, found the most comfortable position in Qi Shengzhi's arms and continued to sleep peacefully.
Qi Shengzhi hugged Yue Feiying, lowered his eyes to look at her peaceful sleeping face, and the love in his heart was almost overflowing from his peach blossom eyes.
He remembered that he had not had time to confess his feelings to her tonight, so he whispered in Yue Feiying's ear:
"Yingying, I love you."
"I don't want to be separated from you. I am willing to break the contract and give you everything I have. Please don't leave me, okay?"
Yue Feiying on his chest still looked like she was sleeping soundly, and only made a series of even breathing sounds in response.
Qi Shengzhi raised the corner of his mouth, folded his arms and hugged her tightly in his arms, and closed his eyes contentedly.
I don’t know how long it took, but suddenly a slight noise was heard from somewhere in the yard, and then it fell silent again.
Qi Guangyao climbed over the wall and hid in the dark corner for a while. After finding that he did not wake up the sleeping people in the house, he sneaked towards the car parked in the yard.
He felt around the car and found the fuel tank under the car. He took out a sharp iron rod and a plastic bag from his pocket, which he had picked up from somewhere, and poked the bottom of the fuel tank violently.
In an instant, the gasoline gushing out from the breach flowed into the plastic bag connected below.
Qi Guangyao filled a bag with gasoline and, ignoring the still gurgling gasoline, he started pouring it along the corner of the two-story building.
This was the way he thought of to take revenge on the Qi family father and son after spending the whole night thinking about it.
He has nothing now. He has no money to fight with Qi Shengzhi. He may not even be able to beat Qi Shengzhi in a fight. So he can only take advantage of his unpreparedness and give him a fatal blow, never giving him a chance to fight back.
On the night when Qiao Yulan's body was dumped, Qu Jingyun and Qi Guangyao talked a lot, which gave him a new understanding of the situation of the mother and son.
His mother was right, his father was partial to Qi Shengzhi.
No matter how many mistakes Qi Shengzhi made or how many troubles he got into since he was a child, his father always scolded him while cleaning up the mess.
But when it was his turn, his father seemed to have suddenly changed into a different person and started talking to him about principles.
He has done such a wrong thing since he was a child, but his father acted like he wanted to sacrifice his own family for the sake of justice and refused to help him no matter what. If this is not favoritism, what is it?
After all, his mother had been married to his father for twenty years. Even if she had done something wrong due to a fit of evil, she should have been given a chance to correct her mistakes. But his father had the heart to send her to prison!
Now that the mother and son have been forced into a desperate situation by the father and son, there is no need for him to talk to them about blood ties. They were the ones who were unkind first, so don't blame him for being unjust!
If the police hadn't been guarding the Qi family, he would have wanted to burn Qi Mingyuan's house down as well. Once all the members of the Qi family were dead, all of the Qi family's property would naturally belong to him.
But it’s better this way now. Doesn’t his father favor Qi Shengzhi?
Let him, in his old age, send off the young, and let him also taste the pain of losing a loved one!
Without Qi Shengzhi, all of the Qi family's property will eventually fall into the hands of Qi Guangyao!
