Chapter 12 Jiang Ruan is Pregnant

Chu Mochen greeted naturally, "You came down, look, the little girl from yesterday, I think there's even a package for you among these, I signed for it?"

Chu Mochen said all this, but after he finished speaking, he got no response.

He looked over in surprise, only to realize... Zhan Xiaohan's gaze had been fixed on Jiang Ruan all along, seemingly not hearing a word he said.

A twitch went through the corner of his eye, and just as he was about to speak again, the 'little yellow duck' beside him suddenly stepped forward, stirring up a breeze.

The next time he saw her, the chaos of the previous night involuntarily sprang to mind.

Jiang Ruan took a deep breath and took a bank card out of her bag to hand over.

Zhan Xiaohan glanced at it, and his eyes darkened dangerously, "What does this mean?"

"Mr. Zhan, I owe you a debt of gratitude for my mother's surgery. This card has twenty thousand yuan I just deposited; it's a start. I'll earn the rest and deposit it as soon as possible."

Chu Mochen walked up from behind, looked at Zhan Xiaohan, then at Jiang Ruan.

"Xiaohan, when did you start doing such good deeds?"

Gathering her courage, Jiang Ruan suddenly reached out to grab Zhan Xiaohan's arm and placed the bank card in his palm, "Please take it, I'll repay you in full as soon as I can."

After saying this, she didn't stay any longer and swiftly turned to leave the hall.

Chu Mochen turned to look back at her, his lips parting to speak but then hesitating, deciding not to call out to her.

He turned back to Zhan Xiaohan, touched his arm and curved his lips into a smile, "Hey, this little girl is quite interesting, the more I see, the more amusing it gets."

At that moment, an assistant walked in from outside, a trace of shock still on his face.

He had just finished gathering all the information on the Jiang family's adopted daughter as Zhan Xiaohan had ordered this morning, and today, he happened to bump into her at the company entrance.

Seeing Zhan Xiaohan also in the front hall, he quickly walked over, "Mr. Zhan, the information you requested is right here."

With a sweep of his cold gaze, Zhan Xiaohan took it and headed towards the elevator.

Chu Mochen was startled and followed without thinking, "Aren't we going out to eat?"

Seeing Zhan Xiaohan's eyes glued to the information, he sighed and leaned against the elevator wall, muttering to himself.

"Just a few minutes apart and you're missing that little girl already, huh? She really is the most innocent girl I have ever seen."

Chu Mochen savored the thought, but at this moment, Zhan Xiaohan's eyes gradually darkened, his handsome face turned grim, covered with an intimidating frost.

This information perfectly detailed Jiang Ruan's bad record!

Fighting, truancy, theft, cheating on exams, a messy private life, and such poor college entrance exam scores that she attended a third-rate university.

Innocent?

To Zhan Xiaohan's ears, this seemed nothing but mockery, and a hint of thin anger emerged from the depths of his black eyes.

So, giving him the bank card was just another of her tricks.

She calculatedly drew closer to attract his attention; what exactly was her purpose!

The next second, he threw the documents directly onto Chu Mochen, interrupting his words.

Chu Mochen straightened up, "What's with that serious face all of a sudden?"

"I advise you against taking an interest in that woman, is this what you call innocent?"

What the hell?

Chu Mochen scanned the information, looked up at Zhan Xiaohan, and realized why he looked so terrible and intimidating.

He put away the documents, "However, Xiaohan, something's not right with you. Even if that little girl has a record, you're supposed to marry Jiang Yuning, the Jiang family's daughter, not Jiang Ruan the adopted, what she's like shouldn't matter to you, unless, you prefer Jiang Ruan..."

Zhan Xiaohan suddenly turned to look at him, his face cold and devoid of warmth, fraught with danger.

What he cared about was who the girl from those three days really was!

But now, it seemed Jiang Ruan wasn't worth his suspicions anymore, the thought of her beneath other men, indulging in pleasure...

Zhan Xiaohan's forehead vein was about to burst, he lowly shouted, "I don't have time for you now, you can leave."

Chu Mochen curled his lip, watched Zhan Xiaohan exit the elevator, but he didn't follow; instead, he held the documents in his hand, "If it's really the case, that little girl is quite the actress."

*

A month later, Jiang Ruan successfully confirmed her pregnancy.

Instantly, the Jiang family was immersed in joy, and while Jiang Yuning was happy, she also felt a tinge of unwillingness; she hadn't expected that after sleeping with Zhan Xiaohan for three days, Jiang Ruan would indeed get pregnant!

If it wasn't for her previous promiscuity making it hard to conceive again, how could such good fortune fall upon Jiang Ruan!

Jiang Ruan suffered from severe morning sickness in the early stages of pregnancy, and as she walked out of the bathroom after vomiting, she met Jiang Yuning's sharp gaze.

Arms crossed, she scoffed, "Don't think that just because you're pregnant with Xiaohan's child, you can get anything. Don't forget, Jiang Ruan, you're carrying this child for me. Xiaohan will never know the child is yours, and you care about your mother, surely you wouldn't want any trouble that could lead to her death, right?"

After speaking, she laughed mercilessly.

Until a maid ran in from the outside, ecstatic, "Madam, Miss, the Zhan Family matriarch has spoken. She said to take good care of Miss Jiang's pregnancy; the wedding is in ten days!"

Ten days!

Jiang Yuning's eyes widened, unable to believe as she turned to look at Mrs. Jiang.

Could it be that in ten days, she would truly become the young mistress of the Zhan Family!

"Mom, I'm going to marry Xiaohan!"
