Chapter 32 Prenuptial Agreement: The Child Does Not Belong to Her
Qiao Silin turned his head and glanced at her lightly without saying anything. He opened his notebook and listened to the class attentively.
"Could you please forward me a copy of the previous record?"
While another scholar was taking the stage, Qiao Silin suddenly approached Cheng Qian and asked her in a low voice.
Cheng Qian said calmly: "I don't have your contact information."
Qiao Silin was stunned: "You blocked me?"
Cheng Qian nodded: "If we don't share the same ideals, we can't work together."
"Just because I pointed out the loopholes in your research?" Qiao Silin raised his handsome eyebrows.
"There's nothing wrong with my research. It's you who's looking for trouble." Cheng Qian said coldly.
Qiao Silin suddenly straightened his expression and extended his big hand towards her: "Ms. Cheng, I formally apologize to you. I was wrong last time. Your report is very professional. It's my lack of knowledge..."
Cheng Qian was stunned and looked at him with a high gaze: "Did you go and verify it?"
Qiao Silin nodded: "Yes, in our line of work, some things really need to be thoroughly investigated."
Cheng Qian didn't expect that the person who had argued with her until they were red in the face last time would actually apologize humbly.
She reached out and gently shook his big hand: "Learning never ends, let's work together."
At the moment when Cheng Qian and Qiao Silin shook hands and made peace, Cheng Yan used her mobile phone to silently record the scene.
The next second, she gritted her teeth. Qiao Silin refused to join her laboratory, but now he shook hands with Cheng Qian. Will he join the seed laboratory?
Thinking of this, Cheng Yan became a little anxious, and even more jealous.
Cheng Qian added Qiao Silin to the communication software and sent him a copy of the record.
At twelve o'clock noon, the meeting ended and a group of scholars were invited to the hospital cafeteria for lunch.
Because Cheng Qian wanted to treat her aunt to dinner, she refused to go with Ji Nan.
Qiao Silin called out to Cheng Qian in the corridor.
"Ms. Cheng, I apologize for my last offense. Are you free at noon?" Qiao Silin asked sincerely.
Cheng Qian was startled and shook her head: "I have something to do at noon."
"What about tonight?" Qiao Silin asked again.
Cheng Qian laughed: "I should have it tonight."
"Then I'll ask you out again tonight." Qiao Silin said sincerely.
Cheng Qian knew that Qiao Silin had profound attainments in physical medicine, and it would definitely be helpful to her if she could listen to his insights.
"Okay, see you tonight!" Cheng Qian agreed.
A smile appeared on Qiao Silin's handsome face. He took two steps back, waved to Cheng Qian, and turned away.
Cheng Qian tidied the hair beside her ear and turned to walk towards the parking lot.
She didn't know that a tall figure walked out from the corridor next to her.
Li Zhinan was holding a bouquet of flowers in his hand.
"Zhi Nan..." Cheng Yan didn't want to go to the cafeteria with them, so she made an excuse to go find Qiao Silin.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she caught up, she saw Li Zhinan standing in the corridor with flowers in his hands.
"Are these flowers for me?" Cheng Yan walked forward with a smile, a hint of joy in her eyes.
Li Zhinan looked coldly at the direction where Cheng Qian disappeared, and involuntarily handed the flowers in his hand to Cheng Yan: "Did you see Dr. Qiao? What did he say?"
Cheng Yan hugged the bouquet of flowers and bent down to smell it: "What a nice fragrance! It's my favorite pink rose. Thank you, Zhinan."
Li Zhinan's expression was indifferent: "Have you eaten?"
Cheng Yan shook her head: "No, I was originally going to the hospital cafeteria, but I have work to do in the lab."
Li Zhinan nodded: "Let's go eat something near your company."
Cheng Yan was holding flowers and sitting in the passenger seat of Li Zhinan's car. She lowered her eyes gently and gazed at the beautiful flowers. She was in a good mood.
Cheng Qian's car was still parked in the parking lot and she was calling her aunt.
As they were talking, they suddenly saw a silver Bentley driving past. In the lowered window, Cheng Yan was holding a bouquet of flowers with her head down, and Li Zhinan was sitting in the driver's seat.
Cheng Qian stared blankly, and for a moment, she even forgot what to say.
"Xiao Qian, don't come to pick us up. Let's go directly to the restaurant. There is a driver at home to take us." Ye Zhu said on the other end of the phone.
Cheng Qian's mood instantly plummeted to freezing point. She whispered, "Okay, Auntie, I'll wait for you in the restaurant."
After hanging up the phone, Cheng Qian felt extremely exhausted.
She leaned over the steering wheel, her eyes filled with soreness.
She was not jealous of Cheng Yan, she just felt sorry for herself. She knew that he didn't love her, but she still persisted for four years. During these four years, she also tried to please him and had unrealistic dreams.
Even though she tried hard to become excellent and make him look up to her in her career.
But things went against her wishes. After doing so much, she was the only one who was moved.
Maybe she should file for divorce. No matter what the outcome, she wants to put an end to this relationship.
…
The Bentley was driving in the traffic, and Cheng Yan looked at the man in the driver's seat with affection.
Driving with one hand, he has a calm aura, and his superior profile is full of masculine charm.
"Zhi Nan, you just asked me about Dr. Qiao, right?" Cheng Yan took the initiative to pick up the topic.
"Well, have you talked to him?" Li Zhinan asked.
Cheng Yan had a helpless smile on her beautiful face: "I didn't even have a chance to talk to him. I chased him just now because I was looking for an opportunity."
The man's fingers tightened around the steering wheel. He was sure he had heard correctly. Qiao Silin had made an appointment with Cheng Qian for dinner in the evening, and Cheng Qian agreed.
"Zhi Nan, I think we may have no chance." Cheng Yan showed a lost expression.
Li Zhinan turned his head and looked at her.
Cheng Yan was also looking at him. She said softly, "My information was wrong. I'm sorry. I always thought that Dr. Qiao and my cousin were in opposition and that they had an academic dispute. But what I saw with my own eyes today really shocked me."
Li Zhinan's jawline tightened, and his voice became colder: "What's the matter?"
Cheng Yan held the bouquet and spoke softly, "Dr. Qiao was late. As soon as he entered, he walked to the seat next to my cousin. During the conversation, he kept lowering his head to talk to my cousin, as if he had known her for a long time. Oh, and they even shook hands. I took a photo, but I haven't dared to show it to you... I was afraid it would make you feel uncomfortable."
Li Zhinan's face was so ugly that it couldn't be described. He pursed his lips tightly, and the scene in the corridor just now flashed through his mind.
Isn’t Qiao Silin a cold person?
But the way he ran over to ask Cheng Qian out for dinner just now was like a big boy who had just fallen in love.
Li Zhinan did not miss it. When he heard Cheng Qian agreed to have dinner with him, his ears turned red.
Cheng Qian is quite resourceful and can seduce men without them even noticing.
"I understand." Li Zhinan's voice turned cold.
Cheng Yan stopped talking about this and returned to work.
But she knew in her heart that the seed of suspicion had been planted.
As long as Cheng Qian meets Qiao Silin in private, she will have no chance of getting away with it.
Cheng Qian arrived at the restaurant first and sat quietly in a seat by the window.
Next to her, a couple was chatting in low voices, and the girl leaned on the man's arm from time to time.
The man also reached out to hug her and whispered to her not to drink cold drinks during her period.
The girl's happy and coquettish expression and the man's attentive and considerate care are just like what love looks like.
What is happiness?
What kind of love is the ultimate form of love?
Cheng Qian was confused.
Li Zhinan once suspected that she broke into his room and used her body as a gift in order to get funding for the laboratory.
She denied it every time and couldn't make the man believe her.
During the early period of the relationship being stable, Li Zhinan no longer mentioned this matter.
Cheng Qian thought that he believed in herself, but in fact, this thorn had always been stuck in his heart and had never been removed.
Cheng Qian took out her cell phone, found the prenuptial agreement, and read it over and over again. If she filed for divorce, she could only get 8 million in living expenses, and she would voluntarily give up the custody of her child.
