Gong Chengjue hung up the phone, stood up, and thought, "Will I make a decision once I get to City A?"
After seeing Gong Chengjue at home when she returned from the capital last time, Su Ziqing changed the combination locks on all her residences.
So when Gong Chengjue appeared in City A in the middle of the night, at her doorstep, all she could do was... knock on the door.
As for Assistant Luo and the others, he had already sent them downstairs to wait.
Although it's said to be the middle of the night, it's actually not that bad, it's only around 12 o'clock.
Su Ziqing was not asleep, but she never expected that Gong Chengjue would come knocking on her door at this hour!
She was stunned when she saw the person outside the door through the peephole, and then her expression changed slightly as she wondered what he was doing here at this time.
As for physical reactions? They're just pretending, of course they're not actually at home.
The doorbell rang? Sorry, no response.
Knocking? We can't hear it anymore.
Phone? Silent.
Su Ziqing didn't know why Gong Chengjue was here, but she figured it was best not to see him.
Then……
"Ziqing, I know you're inside. If you continue to pretend you're not there, I'll have to send someone to open the door." Gong Chengjue's voice reached Su Ziqing's ears.
Someone came to open the door? Su Ziqing frowned. This was her house, not his!
He's becoming increasingly adept at using threats.
"Luo Jinhan, send someone to open the door... no need."
Su Ziqing opened the door and looked coldly at Gong Chengjue standing outside. Gong Chengjue hung up the phone and looked at her, but his eyes unconsciously drifted to her abdomen under her nightgown.
It looks like there's a slight bump?
If it's been more than two months, will the abdomen protrude slightly?
Su Ziqing looked at him with a displeased expression, and had no intention of inviting him in. In fact, she had already decided in her mind that it would be better to move to another house.
The two just stared at each other without saying a word.
The last time we met at home in the capital, it ended badly. Gong Chengjue was called back by his family due to an urgent matter and said some harsh words.
Su Ziqing felt that she must have been too sharp-tongued, and that she should have refrained from saying anything at the banquet like "don't ever appear in front of me again."
See, I didn't say it was outdated, and we haven't seen each other for two months since the breakup, right?
After saying that, he keeps showing up in front of her every few days. What does he want?
After she had painstakingly built up a strong support system, did he really want to easily destroy it?
So what was he doing when they broke up?
"You're pregnant," Gong Chengjue uttered.
"What, Mr. Gong, are you trying to force me to have an abortion now?" Su Ziqing sneered. "Last time you threatened me in the capital not to get married, and now you're threatening me not to have children?"
Su Ziqing's words were both accurate and ruthless, hitting the nail on the head.
Before Gong Chengjue could say anything, she said sarcastically, "Gong Chengjue, does Miss Zhou know about this?"
Gong Chengjue remained silent, waiting for her to calm down.
After she calmed down and remained silent, his second words were, "The child is mine."
His deep gaze remained fixed on her, not missing a single expression.
And clearly, when he said those words, there was a hint of panic in her eyes, subtle, but he could still see it.
Su Ziqing did panic for a moment. She had rehearsed how she should react if Gong Chengjue suspected that the child was his.
I practiced in front of a mirror.
However, when she heard him say this, she was still a little surprised. How did he know?
And so quickly.
Impossible. The hospital's examination schedule doesn't match, and the pregnancy tests in N City haven't been entered into the computer... Did he send someone to ask the doctor?
Even when she asked the doctor, she didn't mention her gestational age, and she didn't seem to be experiencing any discomfort. The doctor simply advised her to rest.
A series of doubts flashed through Su Ziqing's mind, but these thoughts only lasted for a few seconds.
She stared blankly at Gong Chengjue, then laughed, looking at him as if she had heard a hilarious joke. "Gong Chengjue, are you joking?"
But Gong Chengjue was extremely certain. He looked at her and said, "The baby isn't one month old, it's two months old, isn't it?"
Judging by the timeline, it must have happened before his father's accident, no, even earlier.
"Your idea is wonderful. What, you want me to be your mistress and even fantasize about having an illegitimate child?" Su Ziqing covered her mouth and laughed, tears streaming down her face.
Damn it, how did he know, and with such certainty? But she absolutely cannot admit it now!
Gong Chengjue frowned and looked at her. "Let's talk."
As he spoke, he tried to enter her house, but Su Ziqing had no intention of making way and coldly refused, saying, "I don't want my house to be filled with your scent."
"Ziqing!" Gong Chengjue tried to force his way in, but Su Ziqing blocked him. He didn't dare to lay a hand on her, not even a touch.
Su Ziqing unlocked her phone immediately. She was so grateful that Su Ziqing had been playing on her phone earlier; otherwise, if Su Ziqing wanted to get her phone now, it would be like she was giving Su Ziqing the door to open.
She's trying to appear calm, but her face shows some disarray.
She called Feng Xixuan directly and asked, "Senior, is the midnight snack ready yet? I'm so hungry."
Her words deliberately created the illusion that she lived with her senior brother.
Feng Xixuan's residence wasn't far from here. When Su Ziqing made the call, the other end didn't ask any questions and simply said that they would be there soon.
Su Ziqing hung up the phone and looked at Gong Chengjue, "You know that Senior Brother Feng doesn't like you very much, Gong Chengjue, you should leave and don't bother me anymore."
Feng Xixuan is in City A? Perfect timing, I also have something I need to talk to Feng Xixuan about!
He gazed at her silently, showing no intention of leaving.
Su Ziqing showed no intention of moving aside, and the two remained locked in a stalemate.
Tell her the truth! This impulse was pounding wildly in his mind, but the last shred of reason told him that if he told her now, it would only make her more worried.
Silently enduring the ordeal, Gong Chengjue was once again tormented.
In the end, even he himself didn't expect that he could calmly say, "Let's talk about the child. I won't fight you for him."
Su Ziqing was furious. "I told you, the child has nothing to do with you."
"Whether it's related or not, are you still trying to hide it from me?" Gong Chengjue looked at her. "Then tell me, if I'm not the father of the child, who is?"
"None of your business," she sneered.
Did he come out of nowhere in the middle of the night just to interrogate her about the father of her child?
"Ziqing..."
"If it's yours, are you trying to force me to get an abortion?" Su Ziqing said coldly.
He frowned. How could she have such thoughts?
Gong Chengjue scratched his hair in frustration, "I will not marry Zhou Ruoling."
“Oh, should I care?” She completely missed his supposed hint.
"Even a family like the Zhou family can't satisfy your ambition, Mr. Gong?" If you don't follow Zhou Ruoling, there will be Yu Ruoling and Chen Ruoling in the future.
