Marital problems spiral out of control

But Fu Shishen did nothing at all; he simply placed his hand on Wen Hua's stomach.

His voice came calmly: "This is my son, why can't I touch him?"

One sentence left Wen Hua speechless.

Fu Shishen didn't do anything; he simply held Wen Hua's hand and naturally felt the presence of the child.

Wen Hua was still nervous.

She's always tense whenever she's nervous.

The mother and child are connected at heart, and the baby in the womb can easily sense Wen Hua's reactions.

So he is moving.

He even kicked Wen Hua harder.

Wen Hua winced in pain, her face covered in sweat.

"Behave yourself." Fu Shishen suddenly scolded in a low voice.

Wen Hua froze for a moment, thinking she was being scolded.

After all, she was used to Fu Shishen's scolding.

The man's words silenced Wen Hua completely, leaving her somewhat at a loss.

"Don't bully Mommy, or I'll teach you a lesson when you come out," Fu Shishen said to the baby in his belly.

The person, who was originally cold and aloof, seemed to soften instantly upon hearing these words.

Wen Hua stared blankly.

Fu Shishen's voice still rang in my ears: "He's only a few months old and already causing so much trouble. What will he be like when he grows up, a little devil?"

It was as if the baby in Fu Shishen's belly quieted down after he said something.

It was as if they had been frightened.

Unlike his cheerful demeanor when facing Wen Hua, he was incredibly docile.

Wen Hua didn't say anything.

It remains frozen in place.

She wasn't used to Fu Shishen like this, nor was she used to them now acting like a pair of parents, eagerly anticipating the arrival of the child in her womb.

She knew all too well that this child was nothing more than a tool to Fu Shishen.

Including myself.

However, Wen Hua knew even more clearly that this was actually her deepest expectation.

Before they reached this point, she dreamed countless times—

She dreamt that she was pregnant, and Fu Shishen was half-squatting in front of her, interacting with the child.

And now, this scene is unfolding before her eyes.

She knew it was fake, but her heart was still pounding terribly.

This is a deadly seduction.

Even trying to calm down became incredibly difficult for her.

Even such a scene could easily make Wen Hua feel dazed.

Does this person still have some expectations for this child?

After all, people are made of flesh and blood.

This thought made Wen Hua's red lips twitch slightly.

Fu Shishen, however, suddenly became unpredictable amidst these fetal movements.

He thought of Jiang Ruan, who was alone in Boston.

She was also pregnant, at the same stage of pregnancy as Wen Hua.

But now he is all alone.

He thought of Jiang Ruan's resolute decision and the words Bo Zhirong had said to him.

Then I thought about all the grievances and obedience Jiang Ruan had endured over the years.

Suddenly, Fu Shishen felt guilty; it was guilt towards Jiang Ruan.

A woman he truly loved had been by his side for many years without any official status or recognition.

Even if she gets pregnant, she can't be officially recognized as a wife immediately.

Losing one's temper seems to have become a matter of course.

In this thought, Fu Shishen recalled Bo Zhirong's questioning of him.

Wen Hua did hold a place in his heart.

Otherwise, he would have kept delaying something as simple as divorce.

If he wanted to be ruthless, he had plenty of ways to get his hands on a will.

However, he consistently refused to sign the divorce agreement.

This thought made Fu Shishen's gaze deepen.

"Fu Shishen..." Wen Hua's voice came, calling his name.

There was a hint of expectation in that voice.

Even though she didn't know what she was expecting.

But she hadn't finished speaking yet.

Fu Shishen suddenly released Wen Hua.

The sudden movement caused Wen Hua to stagger slightly, and she leaned against the bed.

She looked up at Fu Shishen, who had already stood up and was still looking down at her.

"What, you think that my gentleness towards you means I've changed my mind?" His words instantly turned harsh.

Wen Hua's face paled slightly, and she didn't ask the question that was on the tip of her tongue.

Ah, she was foolish.

"Wen Hua, don't dream, and don't challenge my bottom line again. You can't afford the consequences." Fu Shishen continued to warn Wen Hua.

"Seeing your big belly, you must have thought of Ruan Ruan. Don't think that just because you forced Jiang Ruan out of Jiangzhou, you can do whatever you want." He sneered, speaking cruelly and ruthlessly.

In fact, Fu Shishen showed no intention of letting Wen Hua off the hook.

It's about sending her to hell completely.

"Don't doubt what I've said." Fu Shishen looked at Wen Hua expressionlessly. "You know very well that I mean what I say, right? So, next time, be obedient, or I can't guarantee what I might do."

These words carried a chilling undertone, and Wen Hua's face paled even further.

She thought of Fu Shishen's words about cesarean section to remove the child, and she thought of Wen Yin's current miserable state.

She believed that Fu Shishen was truly capable of doing it.

Therefore, Wen Hua did not refute, not even a single word.

Fu Shishen didn't say much and turned to leave the master bedroom.

Wen Hua collapsed onto the bed, drenched in cold sweat, until the door to the master bedroom was closed.

The baby in her belly, however, calmed down.

I don't know if I was frightened or something else.

Wen Hua soothed the child for a long time before the child gently moved, responding to her.

"Baby, Mommy won't let anything happen to you," Wen Hua coaxed softly, but her voice was firm.

The master bedroom was completely quiet.

The sound of an engine could be heard outside the window.

Wen Hua turned her head and looked through the gap in the curtains toward the French windows.

Fu Shishen left.

She didn't react much.

Jiang Ruan was in Jiangzhou; she couldn't keep Fu Shishen there.

Jiang Ruan is gone, and she can't keep her here.

So they had no feelings for each other from the beginning.

When Wen Hua realized this, she no longer felt any pain, as if she were numb.

She lowered her head and became even quieter.

Then she stopped thinking about it and leaned against the headboard, drifting off to sleep.

10 PM, Fu's Group.

Fu Shishen went straight to the company after leaving the villa.

Because Cheng Ming sent a message to Fu Shishen, he accessed all of Wen Hua and Jiang Ruan's communication records.

He looked down at the two call logs in front of him, neither of which contained each other's calls.

This means that Wen Hua never called Jiang Ruan.

Jiang Ruan had never received a call from Wen Hua.

But why is Jiang Ruan's number being dialed from Wen Hua's phone?

Fu Shishen remained unmoved.

His well-defined fingers tapped out a regular rhythm on the desk.

Cheng Ming stood aside without saying a word or making any speculations.

"If there are no call records, but the other party's call appears on the phone, is that technically possible?" After a long while, Fu Shishen looked up and asked Cheng Ming.

Cheng Ming was taken aback by the question, but quickly answered Fu Shishen's question: "Okay."

Fu Shishen raised an eyebrow without changing his expression, looking at Cheng Ming.

Cheng Ming was quite direct: "Nowadays, everyone has smartphones. As long as we can hack into their system, this is a piece of cake."

After all, with enough money, there's nothing a hacker can't do.

But Fu Shishen's sudden question still made Cheng Ming a little nervous.

He instinctively looked at Fu Shishen: "Mr. Fu, is something wrong?"

Fu Shishen did not respond.

Having followed Fu Shishen for many years, Cheng Ming immediately guessed what it was about.

After all, the conflict between Jiang Ruan and Wen Hua has lasted for many years.

Therefore, Cheng Ming quickly left the office as well.
