Chapter 834 is a bit too much for the eyes.
How could Lucas possibly refuse when Li Xiao took the initiative to invite him?
Even though he knew perfectly well Li Xiao's motives, it didn't affect his desire to be alone with Li Xiao.
"Great!" Lucas's joy was palpable, and he happily reached out to hug Li Xiao. "Thank you so much."
If Li Xiao hadn't known that Lucas liked men, this hug might not have made him feel uncomfortable. But unfortunately, he did know, so Li Xiao felt that any intimate gesture Lucas made towards him was suspicious.
Li Xiao's whole body tensed up instantly, but he persisted and took the initiative to hug the other person back: "You're welcome. This is what I should do. In our Chinese terms, it's about being a good host."
“Then let’s exchange contact information,” Lucas suggested.
Li Xiao thus easily obtained Lucas's contact information.
Shen Ci watched from afar, his interest piqued, and he even began to imagine what would happen next.
She knew Li Xiao well. He was willing to sacrifice and give up many things for success and fame. This was his deep-seated flaw, which he never easily exposed, but once exposed, it would be without any bottom line.
It's like in a past life he stole his thesis and took it for himself, and later he oppressed himself in the industry.
If Li Xiao really slept with Lucas because of this, Shen Ci honestly wouldn't be surprised at all.
Because this is Li Xiao!
Shen Ci hadn't really been in the mood for this press conference, but witnessing all of this made the trip worthwhile.
But she clearly wouldn't be satisfied with just that.
She could do without the terminal technology, but if Li Xiao could truly act without any scruples, then she would accept it, and the project should belong to Li Xiao.
But as for Li Xiao, he never thought he would let him go.
She walked to a corner and dialed Guo Zifan's number. It had been a very long time since she had contacted this hacker detective.
Guo Zifan was also surprised to receive Shen Ci's call: "Hey, long time no see, beautiful lady, you finally remembered me?"
"It's probably a good thing for others that they don't contact you, right? It means they're living a relatively peaceful life."
Guo Zifan chuckled: "That's true. People who come to me usually don't come unless they have a reason. So, beautiful lady, what's the matter this time?"
"Help me take some photos with two people these next two days."
"That's it? Any paparazzi could do this, and fan site admins are even more professional. Isn't it a bit of an overkill to hire me?"
"I still trust you," Shen Ci said. "The work isn't difficult, but the reward I give will definitely satisfy you."
"Don't be so formal," Guo Zifan quickly said. "Just because of my friendship with Lianxing over the years, plus the money you gave me for what you did before, consider this a gift from me."
"No need, I have more money than I can spend. Just get things done for me."
Upon hearing this, Guo Zifan stopped being polite: "Alright, you're really generous, beautiful lady. Catching someone cheating, huh? Don't worry, I've done plenty of this kind of thing in the past, I know it like the back of my hand."
“It’s not catching someone in the act…” Shen Ci said instinctively, but hesitated after a moment: “But it seems to count as such…”
Guo Zifan: "Tell me more about it."
"Two men, I hope you can capture some of the scenes I want to see."
Upon hearing this, Guo Zifan on the other end of the phone scrunched up in a deep frown: "Beautiful lady, you want to see this, but have you considered whether I want to see it or not? I still have to keep filming."
"See, this job isn't as easy as you thought, is it?"
Guo Zifan chuckled: "Yes, it's a bit cringeworthy, but it's okay, I'll take it. Give me their information, the more detailed the better."
"no problem."

Meanwhile, Shen Jingjing and Jiang Yuanliang were undergoing premarital checkups at the Second Military Hospital.
Gao Zhan specially arranged for someone to take a shift and accompany him throughout the entire process. Jiang Yuanliang wore a hat and mask to keep a low profile, but his happy expression was clearly visible in his eyes.
"Uncle and Aunt, the results are in."
Gao Zhan took advantage of his position to obtain the test results of the two people in advance.
Shen Jingjing wasn't nervous at first, but she suddenly became nervous while waiting after she finished. She looked at Gao Zhan and said to herself, "There shouldn't be any problems, right, Gao Zhan?"
Gao Zhan sensed her nervousness, so he gave her a reassuring smile: "Auntie, don't worry, there's nothing wrong. I originally thought there might be some minor issues, but after reading the report, I found that you and Uncle are both perfectly healthy."
Upon hearing this, Shen Jingjing's face lit up with joy, and she and Jiang Yuanliang exchanged a happy glance.
But Jiang Yuanliang still asked more detailed questions: "Gao Zhan, at your aunt's age, wouldn't there be any dangers if she got pregnant again?"
Shen Jingjing also looked at Gao Zhan.
Gao Zhan was somewhat surprised. He looked at Shen Jingjing for a moment, then asked uncertainly, "Auntie, are you planning to have another child with Uncle after you get married?"
"Yes, that's what we think."
Shen Jingjing became nervous again.
Fortunately, Gao Zhan simply nodded slightly to show that he understood, and then looked at them seriously and explained: "Uncle and Aunt, objectively speaking, women over 45 years old, which is the same age as you, are considered high-risk pregnancies. However, with the help of modern medical systems and standardized management, the vast majority of older pregnant women can achieve good pregnancy outcomes."
"Simply put, the risks are objectively present, but through comprehensive and professional medical technology and management, the risks can be effectively controlled, so you don't need to worry too much."
"However, since you have this plan, I still suggest you try to conceive as soon as possible. The older the mother is, the higher the risks will be. Most importantly, advanced maternal age pregnancy will inevitably leave some impact on the body. This is unavoidable. Young pregnant women will also experience this, but it will be more serious for older pregnant women."
The two nodded, and Jiang Yuanliang looked at Shen Jingjing with heartache: "How about we forget about it and not have any more children?"
Shen Jingjing just smiled.
Gao Zhan also smiled and said, "Uncle, don't be nervous. There won't be any major problems. You have to trust modern medical technology."
The two left the hospital and got into the car. Shen Jingjing glanced at the time and asked, "Are you going to the company today? I'll go home by myself. It's very close to home from here."
As a result, Jiang Yuanliang grabbed Shen Jingjing and looked at her, reminding her, "Look, you've forgotten what you said."
Shen Jingjing frowned, looking puzzled: "What did I say? What did I say?"
"You said that as long as our premarital checkup is fine, we should get our marriage certificate as soon as possible, have you forgotten?"
Jiang Yuanliang was so eager that Shen Jingjing couldn't help but laugh: "You want to go now? Sure, I haven't forgotten. I was thinking of finding some time to go in the next couple of days, but people are probably taking their lunch break right now, aren't they?"
"Let's go line up first, we're the first couple this afternoon."
