"No, I just... I just find it a little unbelievable." Lieyan felt his heart pounding wildly.
She is actually pregnant?
Pregnant with Yi Tangchen's child?
So is this God's will?
"You don't look like you're ready to have this child yet, are you?" The doctor continued, "If you want an abortion, I'll write you a prescription and you go pay first..."
"No! I want this child!" Lieyan quickly interrupted the doctor: "This is the child of Achen and me, I must give birth to it!"
…
Time flies.
Four years passed in the blink of an eye.
For the past four years, Ran Xia, Yi Tangchen and others have been in Country Z.
Under Lucas's supervision and leadership, Ran Xia became the head of the dark organization and managed the entire organization in an orderly manner.
Lucas felt that he could safely leave everything to Ran Xia.
This day happened to be Ran Xia’s 20th birthday.
Lucas specially booked a bar to celebrate Ran Xia's birthday.
"Xia Xia, happy birthday to you." In the bar, Cici was the first to raise her glass, stood up, and said to Ran Xia with a smile.
Ya Lan also immediately picked up a glass of wine and said with a smile: "Xia Xia, time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, you are twenty years old. I still remember when we first met, you were only ten years old."
Gao Qing couldn't help but smile and praise, "Among us sisters, Xia Xia is the most beautiful. She was already very pretty four years ago, and now she is even more stunningly beautiful!"
Ran Xia smiled lightly: "If you praise me again, you will praise me to the sky."
Yi Tangchen quickly leaned forward and said, "Xia Xia, I don't think their description is accurate enough. If you were to rank second in beauty, no one else could be first."
Ran Xia burst out laughing: "Yi Tangchen, when did you become so fond of flattering people?"
Yi Tangchen said seriously: "Xia Xia, I'm not flattering you. What I said is all true. You are very beautiful."
Lucas was in a good mood seeing how harmoniously they were getting along, but he still interrupted them and said, "Today is Xia Xia's 20th birthday. On this occasion, I want to make an announcement."
Everyone turned and looked at Lucas nervously.
Because they know that once the Master has something to announce, it will be an earth-shattering event!
Lucas smiled and said, "Xia Xia, from this moment on, I officially announce my retirement. From now on, the management of the Dark Organization will be handed over to you. I will no longer interfere with your management style."
But at this point, he added solemnly, "After I withdraw, I have a small request. I hope you can agree to it."
"What's the request?" Ran Xia asked.
Lucas didn't waste any words and directly stated his purpose: "Go to Jiangcheng, Huaguo, and help me destroy the Zhan family."
He has been waiting for this day for more than forty years.
When Yi Tangchen heard this, his pupils suddenly constricted: "Master, what did you say? You want Xia Xia to destroy the Zhan family?"
"That's right." Lucas said calmly, "Mr. Zhan killed the woman I loved most and left me childless. How can he have both children and grandchildren?"
Having said that, he looked at Ran Xia very seriously: "Xia Xia, destroying the Zhan family is my lifelong wish. I hope you can help me fulfill this wish!"
"Master, this is the hatred between you and Mr. Zhan, why do you want to hurt innocent people?" Yi Tangchen retorted somewhat unconvincedly: "Besides, today is Xia Xia's 20th birthday. Do you think it is appropriate to say this on a birthday?
Lucas glared at Yi Tangchen and said, "You have no right to speak here. Shut up!"
Although Yi Tangchen was still a little unconvinced in his heart, he finally didn't dare to say anything more. After all, this was his master!
Lucas looked at Ran Xia again and said earnestly, "Xia Xia, the reason why Master told you this on your twentieth birthday is just because I hope you can take my words to heart. You must remember that your twentieth birthday carries Master's expectations for you."
Only Ran Xia maintained a calm expression throughout. "Master, I, Ran Xia, have always been clear about gratitude and resentment and will not harm the innocent. I just want to ask you, are you sure it was really Mr. Zhan who killed your beloved woman?"
"Sure! I'm absolutely sure!"
Lucas was extremely emotional when he recalled the scene. "Xinyu and I went to see Mr. Zhan, Zhan Jun. I went out to answer a phone call. When I returned to the room, Xinyu had collapsed in a pool of blood. There were only the two of them at the scene. Who else could it be if not him?"
"Master, although I don't understand the grudge between you and Mr. Zhan, I still want to say something: sometimes what we see isn't the truth." Ran Xia said seriously, "Perhaps there is something else behind this matter..."
"What? Are you going to disobey my orders?" After hearing Ran Xia's words, Lucas's frowning face instantly sank.
"I dare not." Ran Xia said calmly, "Master, I can agree to your request, but I also have a small request that I hope you can agree to."
Lucas nodded without hesitation: "Xia Xia, as long as you can complete the task for me, I can agree to any request you make."
When Yi Tangchen heard this, he suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
Is Xia Xia really going to kill each other with Zhan Beiyao?
Ran Xia spoke calmly, "Master, as I said earlier, I have always been a person who clearly distinguishes right from wrong. So before I destroy the Zhan family, I will first investigate the authenticity of this matter. If it is really Mr. Zhan who killed your beloved woman, I will definitely complete the task for you! If not, I will also provide you with sufficient evidence!"
…
River City.
In the evening.
The old house of the Zhan family.
The whole family gathered together for dinner, but the atmosphere seemed a little solemn.
Ever since the accident of Zhan Feitian and Zhan Yichen four years ago, they rarely got together for meals like this.
"Dad, this is the nutritious soup I asked the servant to prepare for you. Would you like to have some?" Yuan Qian took the initiative to serve a bowl of nutritious soup and placed it in front of Grandpa Zhan, saying very considerately.
"Qianqian, you're still the one who's considerate." Old Master Zhan took the bowl of soup from Yuan Qian with great satisfaction and looked at Zhan Feixuan with a smile: "Feixuan, I told you that you didn't marry the wrong person."
Zhan Feixuan also smiled slightly: "Dad, marrying Qianqian is my greatest blessing in this life."
Yuan Qian smiled a little embarrassedly: "Actually, I'm not that good."
During the whole process, only Zhan Beiyao ate silently and did not join the conversation.
But just because he doesn't speak doesn't mean there are no topics to talk about.
