"No, I'm sure." Lu Linghong maintained a calm tone, but heaven knows that his hands, which were holding the phone, were sweating profusely.
"Then... shall we discuss this in more detail?" Su Ziqing asked uncertainly.
"Now?" Lu Linghong was unaware that Su Ziqing's pregnancy had been the subject of sensationalist and exaggerated reporting.
"It's okay, I'll come find you." Su Ziqing felt that if she agreed, then meeting the parents, getting engaged, and getting married would all have to be done all at once.
Time is of the essence.
But it's not good to be in a hurry. She's already more than two months pregnant. Even though she's thin, she'll definitely be showing by four months.
Lu Linghong hummed in agreement.
Su Ziqing put down her phone and looked at her secretary. "Book me a high-speed train ticket to the capital." For a smooth journey, she didn't want to take any other mode of transportation.
The secretary looked at Su Ziqing, "Now? But this afternoon..."
"Cancel all my schedules. If I can't cancel, have the CEO attend in my place." At this moment, she had more important things to do.
(A CEO who doesn't even deserve a name shouts from afar—)
"Yes," the secretary could only reply.
If I marry Lu Linghong, then we'll have to discuss the duration of the marriage. One year? It wouldn't be good to get a divorce when the child is only a few months old, would it?
Two years? Hmm, two years is more appropriate.
Also, if they divorce after marriage, the child will definitely belong to her; nominally, it's only Lu Linghong's child...
The more Su Ziqing thought about it, the more she felt that perhaps this idea really was the best one.
The secretary had booked the train tickets, and the departure time was just right. Dressed in comfortable casual clothes, Su Ziqing stepped out of the room.
Su Enen had been waiting for quite a while. She even left the door ajar. When she heard Su Ziqing leave, she immediately pretended that they had just happened to go out together.
Secretary: "..." Is this young lady, who was vomited on by Miss Su yesterday, going to provoke Miss Su again?
Aren't you afraid Miss Su will throw up all over her again?
Miss Su had just eaten breakfast, so it's perfectly normal for her to have a pregnancy reaction if she accidentally smelled her perfume.
"Su Ziqing." Su Enen looked at Su Ziqing with schadenfreude, but her eyes were fixed on her stomach.
This blatant attempt to cover up the truth allowed Su Ziqing to confirm, without any investigation, that the gossip story was fabricated by her.
"What is it?" Su Ziqing glanced at her coldly.
Su Enen stood in the middle of the corridor, blocking Su Ziqing's path.
Su Ziqing pretended to smell her nausea and made a vomiting motion...
Su Enen immediately jumped away, "Su Ziqing, if you dare to vomit all over me again..." Did she forget that she was wearing high heels? With that jump, her foot immediately twisted.
Su Enen let out a sigh.
Su Ziqing pushed Su Enen, who was in pain, aside and said, "I'm in a hurry, please move aside."
"So quickly you've gotten pregnant with a bastard's child, tsk tsk." Su Enen looked at Su Ziqing with a cold smile, as if she was also very happy to see Su Ziqing like this, her face was conflicted and somewhat distorted.
Upon hearing the words "bastard child," Su Ziqing stopped in her tracks and then turned back.
She walked up to Su Enen.
Su Enen was still feeling aggrieved because of Wei's foot, and tears were almost welling up in her eyes from the pain.
Seeing Su Ziqing walk back, she wasn't scared at all. Instead, she was very arrogant and laughed loudly, "Did I hit a nerve? Too bad, who doesn't know about your indecent behavior now?"
Although the hotel's soundproofing was decent, speaking loudly like that in the corridor was bound to be overheard by others.
The secretary knew that this annoying young lady was doing it on purpose.
"Miss Su..." It's best to leave now to avoid getting upset.
But instead of backing down, Su Ziqing walked up to Su Enen and asked calmly, "What did you just say?"
"If you dare to do it, why are you afraid of what others will say?" Su Enen chuckled and deliberately said loudly, "Wild..." Before she could say the word "species," Su Ziqing slapped her hard across the face.
"Slap." The crisp sound of a slap was unusually loud in the quiet corridor.
As for Su Enen herself, who was slapped, her ears were ringing...
Su Ziqing used a clever technique in her slap; the person being slapped felt a lot of pain, but the person who did the slap was alright.
Su Ziqing blew on her hands, "Su Enen, it seems you don't know what it means to learn to be good."
Most of the rooms in the corridor had been booked by the guests who attended the banquet last night. The doors were slightly ajar, allowing everyone outside to hear clearly, but no one dared to come out and 'take charge'.
Su Enen, daughter of Chief Su.
Su Ziqing, Gong Chengjue's ex-girlfriend, is the head of the Su Group in City A. Within six months, she sent two of her uncles, who had dominated the business world for half their lives, to prison.
In terms of status, Su Enen wins, but in terms of experience... those who write longer stories win, right?
Su Enen originally wanted people to see Su Ziqing make a fool of herself, so that Su Ziqing could deeply feel how low-key she could be without Gong Chengjue as her backer, and how she could only swallow her grievances.
However……
But she herself became a laughing stock?
A burning pain shot through her face, and her eyes burned with hatred as she tried to kill Su Ziqing. "Su Ziqing, how dare you hit me?"
Su Ziqing smiled slightly and took off her sunglasses. "Obviously, I dare."
"Do you think you're still the same person you used to be?" Su Enen was furious.
"Of course I'm not the same person I used to be." It's unclear which "the past" Su Enen is referring to—a year ago? Or the person she was a while back?
“In fact, I’ve been holding back a lot lately.” Su Ziqing’s smile didn’t reach her eyes at all. “I thought you would have learned what it means to be sensible by now. It seems I overestimated your intelligence.”
Holding her phone, Su Enen's fingers trembled as she dialed a number. "Uncle Zhang, this is Enen. I'm reporting Su Ziqing for maliciously assaulting an ordinary citizen..."
Su Ziqing scoffed and looked at Su Enen, "Don't you know this trick of yours doesn't work? You've been proven wrong once, haven't you learned your lesson?"
Su Enen sneered, "You'll be crying in a minute."
"I'd rather see you cry right now." Su Ziqing sighed softly and picked up her phone...
Call someone?
She knows how; she just didn't want to use it before.
The call connected, and she sweetly called out, "Senior brother~~"
Su Enen regained the memories she had deliberately forgotten. Yes, Su Ziqing still knew that foreigner...
No, that foreigner has already left; he can't possibly still interfere in things here.
A distant solution can't quench a nearby fire!
"It's nothing, I was bullied. You said you'd tell you." Su Ziqing looked at Su Enen. "You remember Chief Su's daughter, right? She twisted the truth and said she'd have me arrested. I'm so scared!"
Su Enen: "..."
The secretary was speechless. She had never seen Miss Su so adorable before.
"Okay, I understand." After hanging up the phone, Su Ziqing gave Su Enen a soft laugh.
Su Enen's expression was extremely unpleasant. "Do you think a foreigner can interfere in domestic affairs while not in our country?!"
"What do you think?" Su Ziqing asked her in return.
