Chapter 1000 - 996

He looked so serious, but Gu Xiaoning was completely confused, "What's the matter? What truth do you want?"

"Tsk…" Le Zhengsheng clicked his tongue and stared at her belly, "Is the child mine?"

"...What?"

Gu Xiaoning was stunned for a few seconds, still unable to grasp it, what child?

Le Zhengsheng frowned and said in a deep voice, "I've already found out, you're pregnant... I'm just asking, is the child mine?"

Ah...

Gu Xiaoning was astonished, as if struck by lightning!

She... was pregnant? But how could that be? She clearly went to the hospital for a check-up, didn't they say it was just a simple menstrual irregularity?

Also, why was Le Zhengsheng asking this? If she really was pregnant, if the child wasn't his, then whose could it be?

"Gu Xiaoning." Le Zhengsheng sat down, repeating, "Does it take long to think? Or are you calculating dates... Is it mine or Ling Yu's..."

Listening to his words, Gu Xiaoning's blood boiled, she raised her hand and slapped Le Zhengsheng hard!

'Slap'—a slap, using almost all her strength!

Gu Xiaoning's face turned pale, her body trembled, she pointed at Le Zhengsheng and shouted, "Get out! Get out!"

"Ningning?" Le Zhengsheng tilted his head, looking at her puzzled, "You're telling me to get out?"

"Yes!" Gu Xiaoning panted, clearly very angry, "I'm telling you to get out!"

Le Zhengsheng raised his neck, "Why? Are you feeling guilty? Whose child is it, this question must be faced!"

"Le Zhengsheng!" Gu Xiaoning covered her ears, shaking her head, "I beg you, stop talking! I'm going crazy, really going crazy! Please don't push me anymore, don't torment me anymore, alright? I'm begging you!"

"Gu Xiaoning!" Le Zhengsheng stepped forward, gripping her hands.

"I'm tormenting you? Gu Xiaoning, it's you who's tormenting me! Two years ago, you abandoned me for another man, two years later, I shamelessly pursued you, and now you're two-timing? Gu Xiaoning, when will you grow up? When will you learn to be wholeheartedly devoted to one person? Huh?"

"Asheng..." Gu Xiaoning looked at him with red eyes, "I'm so tired, please let me go!"

Suddenly, she held her head and screamed, "Ah—"

The door of the hospital room was pushed open, and Ling Yu rushed in.

He had just received the news and hurried over. Unexpectedly, upon arriving, he encountered such a scene and immediately rushed to the bedside, "Gu Xiaoning?"

"Ling Yu!" Gu Xiaoning was fragile and helpless, looking at him eagerly.

Ling Yu's heart ached, he opened his arms to hold her, "I'm here."

"Woo..." Gu Xiaoning, like a kitten, leaned into his embrace, softly sobbing.

Ling Yu felt heartbroken, even when crying, she was trying so hard to hold back. What kind of grievances had she suffered before!

The sight of them embracing was so glaring in Le Zhengsheng's eyes!

Le Zhengsheng rushed forward, gripping Ling Yu's shoulders, twisting him to the ground.

"Ugh..." Ling Yu was caught off guard, reaching his hands towards his throat.

Gu Xiaoning, with red eyes, "You... don't fight!"

But how could the two men listen to her?

Le Zhengsheng raised his fist, delivering a straight punch to Ling Yu, Ling Yu took a hit and became furious too, bent his knee and kicked Le Zhengsheng in the abdomen!

"Stop fighting, stop fighting!" Gu Xiaoning was scared, how did it turn out like this?

The two men wrestled on the ground, soon both their faces were bruised.

Le Zhengsheng sneered, "Ling Shao, can't you find a woman? Touching my girl?"

"Hmph!" Ling Yu retorted, "She's your ex-wife! Ex-wife!"

"Damn!" Le Zhengsheng shouted, "I'll beat you to death! Let you touch her!"

"At least I'm better than you, you made her cry! Didn't you see? She's crying!" Ling Yu panted, yet was also relentless.

Le Zhengsheng's eyes burned red, "Fine! I don't care who you are, I'll make you bleed today!"

"Le Zhengsheng!"

Lu Yuxuan came in right after, rushing towards the two fighting, gripping Le Zhengsheng's shoulder, "What are you doing? Calm down! Have you lost your sense? Watch your identity!"

"..." Le Zhengsheng's raised fist paused, his identity? What identity?

He's not a key figure in Holy City now, not the Director handling economic matters, he's just an ordinary man, a man who gets jealous for his woman!

A fist raised again, hitting Ling Yu.

"Le Zhengsheng!"

"Ling Shao!"

...

Holy City.

Lu Jinxuan looked at Le Zhengsheng, his face full of disdain, "Amazing! You're really amazing! I see you're planning to dislocate my arm!"

Everyone knows, the President's Excellency has two confidants, Cabinet member Le Zhengsheng and military's Lu Yuxuan, they are his left and right arms.

Who would've thought Le Zhengsheng would cause such trouble?

"With your scene." Lu Jinxuan frowned, "Is there still hope for the Ling Family's economic reform?"

Le Zhengsheng's face was bruised, full of unhappiness and wasn't hiding it, "I have nothing to say, at your disposal."

"Ai..." Lu Jinxuan sighed and shook his head, "You, why are you so emotional? That Gu Xiaoning, she's your stumbling block... So, put aside the Ling Family's matters temporarily, there's a cooperation project with the Ministry of Health, go check it out, shift your focus a bit."

Le Zhengsheng nodded, the mistake he made didn't leave him much room for argument.

He took the CASE Lu Jinxuan handed, flipped through casually, and his gaze suddenly paused.

Chief Consultant, Dr. Su Hang?

What a narrow path for enemies.

Back in the office, Le Zhengsheng immediately called in Liao Jingqing.

"Yes, Director, your orders."

"This..." Le Zhengsheng tapped the document on the table, "I want to personally oversee."

This? Liao Jingqing was surprised, "Director, it's not a big CASE, no need for your personal attention."

Actually, Lu Jinxuan handed this CASE to him intending for him to take a break. This period, Le Zhengsheng has been troubled because of Gu Xiaoning, even ended up fighting! Such behavior from a key figure in Holy City wouldn't spread well.

Le Zhengsheng naturally understood, but, who let him encounter Su Hang?

"Humph." Le Zhengsheng curled his lips, "There's someone I must meet."

Dr. Su, huh? Long time no see!

——

In the car, Su Hang called Gu Xiaoning.

"It's me." Su Hang smiled gently, "Came to Holy City with the seminar, are you available? Can we meet?"

Gu Xiaoning was with Ling Yu in Qiupu, "I didn't know you would suddenly come... I'm not in that area right now, how about waiting till I return?" "Okay."

Su Hang hung up the phone with a smile, noticing that the driver's route was different from the main group's direction, "Driver, where are we going?"

The driver replied, "Taking you to the residence."

"This..." Su Hang felt it was wrong, "But why not with everyone else?"

"This I don't know." The driver shrugged, "I'm following orders, heard Dr. Su is the Chief Consultant... maybe the treatment is different?"
