She was pregnant.
“Zhou Xiangqun, I am still your wife, and the child in my belly is yours. If you dare to do anything reckless, I will not let the child call you Dad.”
After speaking, Jiang Pengyue turned around and stared intently at Xu Manzhi.
"Back then, you didn't want Zhou Xiangqun, saying you looked down on him. Now you're trying to take him from me. What do you mean by that?" she said angrily, clenching her fists.
With a greeting, everyone present stared intently at Xu Manzhi.
They wanted to see just how bold and shameless Xu Manzhi really was, and whether she had the guts to bear the reputation of being promiscuous and abandoning men after starting a relationship...
A mix of amusement, mockery, contempt, sympathy, and a touch of glee—various scrutinizing glances and veiled speculations swirled around Xu Manzhi.
Xu Manzhi remained calm.
She glanced at Jiang Pengyue. Although her abilities had diminished and she could no longer smell Jiang Pengyue's scent, she couldn't help but find it amusing.

She always felt that Xu Manzhi had ill intentions.

Wow.
These words caused an uproar in the audience.
Even Secretary Ling couldn't help but frown.
Zhou Xiangqun wasn't joking; he meant it.
Xu Manzhi has truly developed feelings for Yan Lin.
"You, you have no shame."
Jiang Pengyue burst into tears.
Ye Qiqi, standing in the crowd, revealed a slight smile.

A tremendous change has occurred between Xu Manzhi and Yan Lin...
Zhou Xiangqun was so smug he was practically floating on air, feeling like he was on cloud nine.
