Chapter 1060 Shang Shiyan: Clown.jpg
"Threatening me?"
Pei Jinwu curled the corners of her lips, her voice growing even colder.
"I wouldn't dare."
The man feigned ignorance, his tone carrying a light laugh: "We were simply asked by our employer to invite Miss Pei and Professor Lu to dinner."
"If you hadn't come, Professor Lu might not have enjoyed the meal so much."
"employer?"
Pei Jinwu listened to the other party's words and a smirk appeared on her lips: "Those useless people from the US sent you?"
It seems that the defense system they cracked last time hit a nerve with the US, and they've even sent in assassins.
Forehead.
The other party was clearly taken aback.
She possessed remarkable mental fortitude and quickly regained her composure: "Sorry, I can't say."
"They have quite a professional demeanor."
Pei Jinwu sneered and said sarcastically, "Listen carefully, if Lu Jinglan loses even a single hair, I'll tear all your bones apart."
"As long as Miss Pei comes, I guarantee Professor Lu will be unharmed."
The men weren't intimidated; they were professionals in this line of work.
If you take someone's money, you're obligated to solve their problems.
As long as you pay enough, you can negotiate whoever you want to kidnap or kill.
When they received this order and learned who the target was, they almost questioned their existence.
Pei Jinwu.
A big shot with countless aliases.
The power behind her and her husband, Shang Shiyan, is enough to overturn several continents.
I'm afraid they'll be killed by the couple before they even make a move.
In order to live two more years, they refused the business deal.
Unfortunately, the US gave too much.
So much so that after they finish this job, they can retire and live a peaceful life.
After much consideration.
They decided to take the order and found a breakthrough.
—Lu Jinglan.
Pei Jinwu is a loyal and righteous person, and Lu Jinglan is her friend of many years.
If he were kidnapped because of him, Pei Jinwu would not stand idly by.
"By the way, remember to come by yourself." Before Pei Jinwu could speak, the man emphasized again, "Your husband, Shang Shiyan, wasn't invited to this banquet. Nor were the police invited. If anyone other than you finds out, Professor Lu will be in trouble."
Where is he?
I'll contact you again tomorrow morning for the address.
After the man finished speaking, he let out a crisp laugh: "Miss Pei, no, Master Blank, I hope we can cooperate happily and achieve a win-win situation."
The call ended.
Pei Jinwu immediately traced the other party's IP address.
However, the other side was well-prepared, and with the support of a top hacker from the United States, the signal was interfered with.
To find the correct IP address, you have to eliminate billions of possibilities.
Oh.
The preparations were quite thorough.
Lu Jinglan...
Pei Jinwu pinched the bridge of her nose, feeling extremely irritated.
How did this unlucky thing end up in their hands?
"Why."
Pei Jinwu sighed, placing her palm on her stomach, her voice filled with helplessness: "Life is too boring, Mom will take you to do something exciting."
——
Inside the villa.
Pei Jinwu tried to track the other party's IP address.
They then contacted the master craftsman and asked him to secretly send his capable men from the underground city to investigate.
"You bastard."
With her eyes blurry, Pei Jinwu angrily closed the notebook.
My stomach tightened up because I was so excited.
The little guy was startled and kept moving around.
"It's alright, it's alright."
Pei Jinwu patted her belly perfunctorily, offering words of comfort: "Get used to it in advance, Mom might have to take you on the highway later."
"..."
The little guy stopped moving. Pei Jinwu guessed that he must have fainted from fright.
I didn't feel like eating much for dinner.
Pei Jinwu opened the drawer and took out the spicy strips she had secretly hidden.
The most dangerous place is the safest place.
She hid her snacks in Shang Shiyan's study, in a drawer that he didn't use often.
It's been eight months.
The old fox was completely unaware.
Tearing open the spicy strip, Pei Jinwu's mouth watered at the aroma of the fresh, spicy, and numbing flavor.
Her pregnancy was a bit strange; most people get pregnant with sour foods for boys and spicy foods for girls.
But her tastes change drastically.
Two days I like spicy food, two days I like sour food, and two days I like bitter food.
For the rest of the day, I wanted to eat everything.
This left Shang Shiyan, who was still kept in the dark, completely confused about the child's gender.
Privately, Madam Shang inquired about the nature of her pregnancy.
Shang Shiyan thought for a moment and said seriously, "It's probably Nezha, he wants to eat everything."
"You bastard!"
The old lady was so angry that she grabbed her cane and chased after him, hitting him.
"I want my great-granddaughter! My great-granddaughter! If not, you'd better watch out!"
Shang Shiyan looked bewildered and pointed at himself: "Me?"
"Otherwise what?"
The old lady, panting from running, brandished her cane and said very seriously, "Whether a child is a boy or a girl is determined by the man's genes. If you can't have a daughter, it must be your fault. Are you going to blame Wuwu?"
"..."
This left Shang Shiyan speechless.
How could you blame Wuwu?
"No matter what it is, just remember to take good care of her."
The old lady thought for a moment, then sternly instructed, "If she is uncomfortable or unhappy in any way, I will beat you too."

...
While absentmindedly eating spicy snacks.
Suddenly, Wang Ma's loud voice came from the doorway: "Sir, why are you back early today?"
"..."
Pei Jinwu's expression changed, and she quickly hid the spicy strips back in the cabinet, wiping her mouth in a flurry.
"Um."
Shang Shiyan nodded and handed the cake he had bought on the way to Wang Ma: "Please put it on a plate, Wuwu has been talking about it lately."
"OK."
Wang Ma took the cake, then called out towards the study, "Madam is in the study, sir, please go find her."
"?"
Shang Shiyan was changing his shoes when he noticed Wang Ma's strange expression and frowned slightly: "I'm only a meter away from you, do you have to speak so loudly?"
As he spoke.
Shang Shiyan subconsciously glanced towards the study, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a fleeting look of panic on Wang Ma's face.
"Huh? My hearing hasn't been working very well lately, so I'm speaking a bit louder."
Wang Ma explained with a smile, but the embarrassment on her face was impossible to hide.
"..."
Shang Shiyan roughly guessed what was going on and quietly watched her performance: "Then you must take care of your health."
"Thank you for your concern, Mr. Shang." Wang Ma looked away guiltily, trying to remain calm. "I'll go back to work now."
He left a message and dashed into the kitchen.
Upon entering.
He even deliberately made a lot of noise, just to inform the people in the study.
Shang Shiyan smiled and, after changing his shoes, went straight to the study.
He wanted to see what these two were up to.
With a "click".
Shang Shiyan turned the doorknob and stepped inside.
The first thing he felt was not his wife, whom he had missed all day.
Instead, it had a flavor that was hard to describe.
Strange yet familiar.
It was unfamiliar to him because he had never eaten it before.
He was familiar with her because... he had caught his wife cheating countless times.
"Off work?" Pei Jinwu sat in front of the computer typing, looking very focused.
"Um."
Shang Shiyan nodded, walked behind her, and deliberately asked, "What are you busy with?"
"It's about school." Pei Jinwu glanced at him, looking quite unhappy. "I have a job too, you know."
"Oh, I thought you were secretly eating spicy snacks."
As Shang Shiyan spoke, he suddenly calmly picked up a bag of spicy strips from the trash can.
That's it.
The crime scene wasn't cleaned up properly, and they got caught.
