When he woke up the next day, Xi Yu reached out to pull the pillow without even opening his eyes.

She pulled it out and threw it aside, then squinted her eyes, lifted the quilt and got out of bed.

"woke up?"

The sudden male voice startled Xi Yu and he quickly opened his eyes, only to find that Zong Du had been sitting on the sofa not far away.

"...Master, you didn't go out?"

Soudou put down the newspaper in his hand, "Why, I shouldn't be here?"

"No, it's just that when you wake up normally, you..." Xi Yu quickly put on her nightgown, "Have you had breakfast? Do you want to join us——"

Soudou checked the time, "It's almost time for lunch."

Xi Yu smiled awkwardly, "I... I've gotten used to it recently."

Even the cows in the production team didn't dare to be used that way.

She was so exhausted every night that she couldn't get up in the morning.

Soudou glanced at her nightgown and said, "Go take a shower."

Xi Yu responded, and when she looked down along his line of sight, she discovered that her nightgown had gotten wet...at some point.

His face felt hot and Xi Yu got up and ran to the bathroom.

When I came out of the shower, Zong Du had already asked the guest room to tidy up the bedroom.

Xi Yu saw that the bed was made up, then looked at Zong Du's relaxed and nonchalant expression, and felt indescribably embarrassed holding the soiled nightgown.

Zong Du put down the coffee in his hand and said, "Change your clothes and I'll take you out for dinner."

Xi Yu was a little surprised.

It's been a week, and this is the first time that Zong Du has had some free time.

She took out a T-shirt and jeans from the closet and was about to put them on when Soudou frowned.

The tight and slim jeans make her legs look straight and beautiful, and paired with a white T-shirt, she looks invincible in youth.

"Change it." Zong Du said coldly.

"Why?" Xi Yu looked down, "Are we going to some high-end restaurant? Do we need to wear formal attire?"

"Tight clothes can affect pregnancy," Soudou picked out a loose long skirt and handed it to her, "Wear this."

Xi Yu paused with his hand raised in the air and looked up at Zong Du, "Master, are you in a hurry to have a child?"

I have to do it every night, always using pregnancy-enhancing positions, and even my clothes have to be controlled at this time.

Soudou is only 28 years old, why is he so anxious?

Looking at the brown linen skirt in her hand, Xi Yu's heart was pounding.

Their eyes met, undercurrents surging in their dark pupils, the strong emotions were like substance, so sticky that Xi Yu had an urge to escape.

She was the first to look away.

After changing their clothes, they went downstairs together.

Lu Rang started the car and drove for about half an hour before arriving at the city center.

The place chosen by Zongdu is a famous Michelin restaurant, which Xi Xi had seen when he was looking up travel guides.

The elevator reached the top floor, and as the door opened, the magnificent cold light from inside the store shone in, making Xi Yu's eyes hurt.

Zong Du took a step forward and walked out first. Xi Yu's eyes were dazzled with tears and his vision was unclear. He subconsciously called out "Young Master".

"Sōdō!"

A louder voice drowned out her call, and a woman's pretty and surprised voice came from far away.

Xi Yu vaguely saw someone hugging Zong Du.

The elevator door started and slowly closed.

Xi Yu quickly wiped away her tears with the back of her hand and reached out to press the door-opening button.

Before she could touch it, the door paused and opened again.

Zong Du frowned and looked at her unhappily, "What are you standing there for? Why don't you come out?"

Xi Yu came out and saw that Zong Du looked unhappy. Chu Ying smiled and took his arm.

Xi Yu paused, then smiled faintly, "Hello, Miss Chu."

The three of them entered the store, and Chu Ying enthusiastically introduced the store's signature dishes to them and helped them order food.

The food is exquisite and you can tell it's expensive at first glance.

Xi Yu ate a steak and a few bites of salad without any appetite, and suggested going downstairs to get some fresh air.

Zong Du nodded and asked Lu Rang to accompany her down.

After leaving the building, Xi Yu looked at Lu Rang, "Who is Chu Ying?"

This woman suddenly appeared like a devastating force, charging forward in an arrogant and domineering manner.

Xi Yu felt that she was like an NPC that was everywhere, updating beside Zong Du anytime and anywhere.

Xi Yu could feel Zong Du's alienation from her, but it was very limited.

Just like just now, when she held onto Zong Du's arm, the impatience and coldness in Zong Du's eyes were about to solidify, but he still didn't get angry.

This contradictory feeling made Xi Yu feel very strange.

Thinking of the message from Lin Yanyan——

Lu Rang kept silent.

Xi Yu laughed, "I'm not jealous, I'm just curious about her identity. Judging from Miss Chu's appearance, I'm afraid we will have to spend a long time together."

Lu Rang froze.

Indeed, unless the Chu family gives up the marriage, or Zong Du lets Xi Yu leave.

Otherwise, this bad fate is probably...

Lu Rang was silent for a moment, "She is the youngest daughter of this partner, and President Zong... likes her very much."

Xi Yu raised an eyebrow, "Marriage?"

Lu Rang, "...Not really."

Not only was Xi Yu not angry, he even found it somewhat funny.

Who would have thought that even the eldest son of the clan, who was so famous and prestigious, could not escape the strict control of his parents.

"Has Miss Lin's side been dealt with?" Xi Yu recalled the fragments of information in the news and always felt that the Lin family was not so easy to deal with.

I don’t know what price the Zong family paid for breaking off the engagement.

Lu Rang stopped talking.

He didn't meet Xi Yu very often, but he always felt that the Xi Yu in front of him was different from the last time they met.

It's like someone has suddenly become enlightened.

She might have been smart before, but never as sharp as she is now.

Sharp?

Lu Rang was stunned.

Why did Xi Yu make him think of these two words?

Just as Xi Yu was about to ask something else, his cell phone rang.

I took it out and saw that it was an unfamiliar number from abroad.

Lu Rang took two steps back to leave space for her.

"Hello."

"Miss Xi Yu," Chu Ying's lingering voice came, "Have you finished breathing?"

Xi Yu looked up at the upper floor, "Miss Chu, is there something wrong?"

"Nothing, Soudou went to the bathroom, and I just happened to have a moment, so I wanted to talk to you."

Xi Yu didn't say anything.

Chu Ying chuckled, "I see Miss Xi Yu is wearing loose and casual clothes, I'm a little curious, are you pregnant?"

"How is it possible?" Xi Yu thought to herself, "Miss Chu, you are overthinking. I can't possibly -"

"This is not a matter of whether you want it or not," Chu Ying's voice was a little deeper, "Zong Du wants you to get pregnant, can you refuse?"

Xi Yu felt that the other party seemed to know something, so he tightened his vocal cords and asked, "What does Miss Chu mean?"

"I heard that Zongdu has recently consulted several hospitals for information related to pregnancy and is very anxious."

Xi Yu bit his lips.

More than just being anxious, Xi Yu even felt that Zong Du was a little crazy.

She saw how eager he was to get pregnant, and it even made Xi Yi feel a little fanatical.

She was clearly on birth control when she was in China, and after the accident at school, he forced her to take the emergency pill.

In just one month, Zong Du's changes left Xi Yu dumbfounded.

"I heard that he has been paying close attention to an operation recently, and this operation requires an embryo." There was sympathy in Chu Ying's voice.

Xi Yu's head buzzed and he subconsciously touched his lower abdomen.
