Marital problems spiral out of control

Fu Shi couldn't stand this kind of ginger softness.

He lowered his head, speaking directly, word by word: "Don't overthink it. There's no future for us. All I want now is for her to give birth to this child safely."

At this point, Fu Shishen was practically gritting his teeth.

He thought of Wen Hua's confrontation with him, and how the change in the will had caught him off guard.

And all of this is because of Wen Hua.

His disgust for Wen Hua was even more intense.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Ruan looked at Fu Shishen innocently.

Then, as if remembering something, she immediately fell silent and began to apologize: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have interfered in these things. There's always a reason behind your thoughts."

It's this ability to navigate situations gracefully that makes her never seem annoying.

Fu Shishen naturally wouldn't let Jiang Ruan feel wronged.

He looked down at Jiang Ruan intently, and unexpectedly took the initiative to explain, "Because Grandpa also had a supplementary will, which basically states that she and I will be married for seven years and have one child. So now that she's pregnant, I need to comfort her and help her give birth to this child safely."

These words surprised Jiang Ruan.

But the joy in her eyes was impossible to hide.

After all, Fu Shishen had been coaxing Wen Hua, and had even stayed with her here for several days without sleep.

It truly terrified Jiang Ruan.

She was afraid that Fu Shishen had fallen for Wen Hua.

She feared that everything she had built up over the years would be for nothing, and she was even more afraid that Fu Shishen would eventually leave her.

That's why she rushed over.

Fu Shishen's answer now completely put Jiang Ruan at ease.

Her eyes darted out of the corner to Wen Hua in the corner, her gaze becoming increasingly provocative.

"Is that how it is?" she said with a surprised look, her voice even more sweet and delicate.

Then she blinked and looked at Fu Shishen innocently: "Does Wen Hua know? If that's the case, she's really pitiful."

"Hmph, what does she have to know?" Fu Shishen sneered, his words filled with cruelty and ruthlessness. "To me, she's nothing more than a breeding machine, and the child in her belly is just a machine."

These words greatly pleased Jiang Ruan.

Fu Shishen looked down at Jiang Ruan, his eyes filled with deep affection: "Wen Hua can't compare to you. You are the most important person in my heart."

Jiang Ruan, sounding somewhat coquettish, hugged Fu Shishen tightly.

"Turn around and hug me. You're pregnant, and I'm worried you might be uncomfortable." He even thought of this small detail.

"Okay." Jiang Ruan was very obedient.

She leaned against Fu Shishen, whose arm was around her waist.

Throughout the entire process, Wen Hua was right at the corner and could see everything clearly.

Even the provocation in Jiang Ruan's eyes.

She lowered her eyes and remained quiet.

Then she laughed self-deprecatingly, very faintly.

She was naive; she genuinely believed that Fu Shishen still harbored feelings for her as husband and wife.

In the end, it was all a conspiracy from beginning to end.

She was just a tool for Fu Shishen.

Then look at how Fu Shishen treats Jiang Ruan; even the way he holds her is carefully considered.

Because he remembered from beginning to end that Jiang Ruan was pregnant.

This is Fu Shishen's true treasure.

The child in Jiang Ruan's belly was the one he had been longing for.

Wen Hua felt like she had been in a dream these past few days.

Absurd and unreal.

Her heart was clenching with pain, so painful that she couldn't breathe.

My stomach, which had been stable these past few days, has started to cause problems.

The baby in her womb is just an embryo, but it's moving around a lot.

Before this, she had already made up her mind not to have the child.

But Fu Shishen's gentleness changed her mind.

She began to genuinely believe that there was a future for them.

This child's tenacious will to live allowed him to pull himself back from the brink of death several times.

Wen Hua could not ignore such vitality.

These words are from her child.

Fu Shishen used this child as a tool, but she never thought that way.

She composed herself and gently stroked her flat stomach, trying to soothe herself.

The child seemed to quiet down obediently.

But not far away, Jiang Ruan's provocative gaze remained.

She pressed herself against Fu Shishen, looking up at him with a worried voice, "Shishen, what if Wen Hua finds out?"

Wen Hua also wanted to know how Fu Shishen would answer.

Jiang Ruan's voice came again soon after.

She sighed, as if sympathizing with Wen Hua: "She's pregnant now, so please treat her well and comfort her, just for the sake of Grandpa's will. She's pregnant, and her emotions are unstable. You're also husband and wife; even a day as husband and wife is a hundred days of kindness, right?"

The words still speak for Wen Hua.

"You still expect me to coax her?" Fu Shishen raised an eyebrow, unsure whether he believed her or not.

"After all, she's carrying your child. This child is very important to you, so of course I'll care," Jiang Ruan said, offering a plausible excuse.

But Fu Shishen did not continue the discussion on this issue.

Jiang Ruan was actually a little unwilling.

Because Wen Hua was listening.

She wanted to induce Wen Hua to have a complete miscarriage.

She knew better than anyone that the child in Wen Hua's belly would become her biggest threat sooner or later.

And then there's Fu Shishen, who recently made Jiang Ruan feel somewhat powerless.

It felt as if it had completely slipped out of my grasp.

"Shi Shen..." She looked up and called out to Fu Shi Shen.

Just then, Fu Shishen's phone rang; it was Cheng Ming.

Jiang Ruan swallowed back the words she was about to say and obediently said, "You go ahead with your work, I'll go back by myself in a bit. If I go out now, the reporters will follow me, and I'm afraid it will cause you unnecessary trouble."

"Okay," Fu Shishen replied.

He didn't answer the phone, but continued to hug Jiang Ruan from behind: "Ruan Ruan, I won't let you down."

"I know." Jiang Ruan turned away from his embrace to face Fu Shishen. "Shishen, I love you very much. No matter how long it takes, I will wait for you."

As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Ruan tiptoed and kissed Fu Shishen's thin lips.

Fu Shishen neither refused nor resisted, letting Jiang Ruan kiss him.

"I'll go home by myself after my prenatal checkup. You go ahead and do your work. Don't keep Assistant Cheng waiting," Jiang Ruan said sensibly.

As soon as she finished speaking, she didn't linger and turned to walk towards the maternity ward.

Fu Shishen watched Jiang Ruan's figure disappear before answering the phone and leaving in another direction.

The moment he turned around, Wen Hua perfectly concealed herself in the shadows.

Fu Shishen didn't notice anything throughout the entire process.

He didn't even notice her in the corner as he walked past Wen Hua.

Oh.

It's probably because of a lack of love, or neglect, that one can be so blind as to not see a living person.

Wen Hua was unusually calm.

She paused for a moment, then continued walking towards the small garden.

Today's unexpected event did not disrupt her plans.

But the quietness in Wen Hua's eyes made it impossible to guess what she was thinking.

It was a bit windy today, and there was a light drizzle.
