Chapter 1162: Baby

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

The Mu family.

Zhang Yi leaned on Mu Ting and felt an indescribable uneasiness. “Hubby, why hasn’t Mu Feng done anything after Wei Jin disappeared?”

It was too strange. 

Looking at how close Wei Jin and Mu Feng were in the past, Mu Feng did not look like he had abandoned Wei Jin.

However, from the looks of it, Mu Feng seemed to be fine. Not only did he not look for Wei Jin, but he also did not return to the Mu family to criticize them.

He ate well and recuperated every day. He looked so good. Those who did not know would not even think that he had just lost his wife, they would only think that he was blessed with good news.

Even Zhang Yi felt that Mu Feng might have been fake to Wei Jin in the past and actually had no feelings for her.

Mu Ting frowned and pushed Zhang Yi away. “Why do you care so much? Don’t you know what your current mission is? What you have to do now is to give birth to a son for me immediately. You don’t have to worry about anything else.”

Hearing this, Zhang Yi was a little unhappy. “Can I give birth just because I want to? Didn’t the doctor say that I’m old and my health isn’t good? The possibility of me giving birth is relatively low.”

Mu Ting glanced at Zhang Yi. “Then why did I marry you?”

Zhang Yi was also angry. “Then go marry someone else.”

Mu Ting stood up and glanced at Zhang Yi. “It’s not realistic to marry someone else, but I have other thoughts.”

Zhang Yi had a bad feeling. “What?”

“Since you can’t give birth, let’s get someone else. They’re my children anyway.”

As soon as he finished speaking, before Zhang Yi could object, Mu Ting stopped her. “Stop being unreasonable here. Either you get lost, or you become the child’s mother in name. The future wealth is still yours. Choose for yourself.”

Over the past few days, the frequent disappointments had already made Mu Ting lose his patience.

He was already very old. If he could not nurture a son of his own, Mu Feng would definitely take advantage of him when he let go of the Mu family’s assets.

Zhang Yi bit the soft meat in her mouth until the smell of blood seeped out. In the end, she could only nod. “You win.”

“Hmph.” Mu Ting flicked his sleeves and left.

After Mu Ting left, Wang Ya, who had been eavesdropping for a long time, walked forward. “Mother.”

Zhang Yi glanced at Wang Ya. “I regret it. I shouldn’t have divorced your father back then. I thought that marrying into the Mu family was marrying love, but I didn’t expect him to become someone I don’t know.”

Wang Ya hugged Zhang Yi. “Mother, I have an idea.”

“What?”

“Let’s strike first. Pretend to be pregnant and secretly find a woman to help give birth. When the time comes, tell Uncle Mu that you gave birth yourself.”

Wang Ya’s words made Zhang Yi’s eyes light up.

Wang Ya was right. If Mu Ting were to find a substitute, then in Mu Ting’s heart, this child had nothing to do with Zhang Yi. If outsiders knew, she would only be an adoptive mother.

However, if she secretly found someone to give birth to the child, as long as no one knew, everyone would think that she had given birth to the child herself.

There was a fundamental difference between the two.

“Okay.” Zhang Yi nodded. “Follow this. Help me find her.”

“Mm!” Wang Ya nodded. “Don’t worry, Mother. I’ll definitely help you settle this.”

After Wang Ya left the Mu family, she went straight to Su Yueran.

In Wang Ya’s social circle, Su Yueran was the person she thought had the most connections. Furthermore, Su Yueran was a very good person and could definitely help her.

After hearing Wang Ya’s explanation, Su Yueran smiled. “Your idea is very good. To Madam Mu, the best solution to this matter is indeed to find someone to replace the production in private.”

Wang Ya was a little embarrassed by Su Yueran’s praise. She looked at Su Yueran shyly. “Then, Sister Su, can you help me find someone in this area? I think your connections are much better than mine.”

If an ordinary person went to such an organization that found surrogate mothers, they could easily get a phone number on the street. However, Zhang Yi’s matter could only be kept a secret and not let Mu Ting discover anything.

Wang Ya thought about it and could only look for the well-connected Su Yueran.

A glint flashed across Su Yueran’s eyes. “Of course. I’ll contact you when I find her.”

“Okay!” Wang Ya looked at Su Yueran in admiration. “Sister Su, you’re such a good person.”

Su Yueran smiled. “You’re too kind.”

Wang Ya was about to say something to Su Yueran when her phone suddenly rang. She pressed the answer button and listened for a while before hanging up. “I’m sorry, I have a business event.”

“It’s nothing. Sister Su, you’re a big celebrity. I’m the one who disturbed you.” Wang Ya hurriedly stood up and bade Su Yueran farewell.

“You’re too polite.” Su Yueran smiled and bade farewell to Wang Ya before leaving the cafe.

Just as she reached the door, Su Yueran called back. “Can’t you reject it? I don’t want to participate in these activities.”

“You can reject it.” The manager hesitated for a moment. “However, Xia Wanyuan will attend the award ceremony this time. Are you sure you don’t want to go?”

As expected, Su Yueran changed her mind. She pondered for a moment. “Alright, come and pick me up then.”

“Okay.” The manager hung up and shook his head.

In the past, Su Yueran was actually a rather indifferent person. She would participate in any business activities if she wanted to and would not go if she refused, no matter what.

However, for some reason, Su Yueran seemed to care especially about Xia Wanyuan. As long as Xia Wanyuan participated in an event or acted in the same type of drama as her, Su Yueran would be like her.

Even for advertisements, Su Yueran had accepted the same type as Xia Wanyuan. The manager really could not understand. Could this be a comparison between beauties? 

After leaving the cafe, Su Yueran went straight to the styling room and spent the entire day styling.

On the manor’s side, Xia Wanyuan had also received an invitation to the ceremony. However, in this award ceremony, not only did the organizers invite her, but they also invited Jun Shiling.

When Xia Wanyuan called Jun Shiling, he had just finished a meeting.

In front of his subordinates, Jun Shiling calmly pressed the answer button. “What’s wrong, baby?”

The expressions of the employees did not change.

However, in the hearts of the employees, their exclamations were about to break through the clouds!! Baby!! So the big shots were so clingy in love!!!

Jun Shiling glanced at the employees. Everyone immediately packed their things and left the office in unison within three seconds.

Xia Wanyuan looked at the invitation card in her hand. “Are you free tonight?”

“I’m originally not.”

“And now?”

“After you asked this question, I’m free.” Jun Shiling’s tone had a smile. “What do you need me to do tonight? I’m happy to help.”

“There’s a ceremony I need to attend. Are you coming?”

“Okay,” Jun Shiling agreed. “Then I’ll come back and pick you up at six.”

“Mm.” Xia Wanyuan nodded and hung up.

In the meeting room, Jun Shiling looked at the phone that had been hung up, but his mood was not as good as before.

The night had passed.

There was still no good news from Continent F. Even though the Chu family had already mobilized a large number of people to help search, they did not find any traces of Xia Yu.

At the foot of a mountain in Continent F, the black cloth on Wei Zimu’s eyes was removed.

After walking for nearly a day with his eyes blindfolded, Wei Zimu suddenly saw the sunlight and subconsciously narrowed his eyes.

However, it had been too long since he had breathed the air on the ground, and it had been too long since he had seen such a clear sky. Although the sunlight was dazzling, Wei Zimu still tried his best to open his eyes.

“Alright, Young Master Wei, I’ll send you here.” Jayce handed a gun to Wei Zimu. “I’ll leave these people to you. Our forces in Continent F know you. Take the token and look for them. They’ll listen to you.”

Along with the gun was a unique information identification chip that could represent Wei Zimu’s identity.

“I understand.” Wei Zimu took the things. “Go back.”

Jayce nodded and turned to board the plane.

Soon, the plane took off and disappeared into the vast sky.

Wei Zimu took a few steps forward and breathed in the rare fresh air. A hint of clarity flashed across his eyes.

He stood rooted to the ground, thinking about something. After a while, Wei Zimu finally gave his subordinates an order. “Follow me to the nearest base.”

“Yes!”

An SUV quickly stopped in front of Wei Zimu and brought everyone away.

The moment Jayce got on the plane, he called Yu Qian. “Boss, Wei Zimu has returned to the ground. I’m rushing back.”

“I understand.” Yu Qian fiddled with the test tube in his hand, making a tinkling sound. “Send someone to keep an eye on him.”

“Yes.”

“Also.” Yu Qian suddenly thought of something. “There have been changes in China recently. Get someone to contact them. Don’t let the changes in China affect our matters.”

“Okay.”

Only then did Yu Qian hang up. He threw his phone aside and carefully observed the colorful reagent in the test tube.

Light leaked out of the window and shone on Yu Qian’s face, making his gloomy side profile even paler.

——

In Beijing, as long as there was news that there was an award ceremony in the entertainment industry and which guests would participate, it would spread everywhere.

Although it was not yet night, the news that Xia Wanyuan and Su Yueran would attend the “Weibo’s annual popularity award ceremony” had already spread on Weibo.

[I can already feel the arrival of the Asura Arena and the baptism of my eyes. Ah, I can look at beauties again.]

[ Why do I feel that Su Yueran and Xia Wanyuan are so fated? Why do they always have activities together?? Does Su Yueran insist on following Xia Wanyuan, or does Xia Wanyuan insist on following Su Yueran? ]

[Why do you care so much about beauties? As long as they’re beautiful, it’s fine.]

Although the passers-by had the mentality of watching beauties, to the fans, every ceremony was a battle.

Su Yueran’s fans felt that Xia Wanyuan was too high-profile, while Xia Wanyuan’s fans felt that Su Yueran was too b*tchy.

Neither family was convinced by the other. Before the ceremony began, the two families had already begun to fight openly and secretly.

As one of the largest news agencies in China, Weibo naturally held a very grand event and invited a large number of celebrities to participate.

Other than Xia Wanyuan and Su Yueran, every year’s top celebrities, newbies, and many Best Actors and Best Actresses were invited.

An Rao was originally invited too, but it was inconvenient for her now. She could only hug her computer at home and sigh. “It’s all your fault. If not for you, I could have worn a beautiful gown and be on a show with Yuan Yuan today.”

Bo Xiao glanced at her. “Is it my problem? Who said it was comfortable?”

Before Bo Xiao could finish speaking, An Rao threw a pillow at him and gagged him. “You hooligan, shut up!”

Bo Xiao smiled slyly. “Tsk, throwing me away after using me. Women.”

An Rao bared her fangs and brandished her claws, wanting to pounce on Bo Xiao. However, her stomach was too big. In the end, she could only barely wave her limbs and could not pose any threat.

Bo Xiao took the initiative to sit over and kiss An Rao. “After you give birth, wear whatever you want, okay?”

“Really?” An Rao raised an eyebrow. “Then I want to wear a tube top and suspenders.”

Before she could finish speaking, Bo Xiao knocked An Rao’s forehead. “Dream on.”

“Hmph, stingy.” An Rao was furious. He doesn’t even let me wear suspenders. 

Bo Xiao picked An Rao up and hugged her. “Good girl.”

An Rao was coaxed into obedience uselessly. She rubbed against Bo Xiao’s shoulder. “After I give birth, I want to go out and play. I want to pick shells by the beach and eat seafood, okay?”

“Okay,” Bo Xiao agreed.

“I also want to go to Tibet. The last time I watched a video, I saw that the lake over there was so beautiful.” An Rao’s eyes were filled with yearning.

Bo Xiao looked at An Rao gently, his eyes filled with love. “You can go anywhere you want. I’ll accompany you.”

“Hehe ~” An Rao turned around and saw the love in Bo Xiao’s eyes. Her heart warmed. She opened her arms and hugged Bo Xiao tightly. “I like you the most.”

Bo Xiao stroked An Rao’s hair and smiled. “You’re so silly all day. If I hadn’t picked you up, you would have been deceived somewhere.”

“Hmph.” An Rao snorted proudly. “You make it sound like I wasn’t deceived by you.”

However, although she said that, An Rao’s heart was warm. Although Bo Xiao always teased her, she knew that Bo Xiao was the person who treated her the best in the world.

However, no one realized that inside Bo Xiao’s body, a small molecule that could not even be observed with a microbiological magnifying glass was being transmitted bit by bit to his heart through Bo Xiao’s blood and it set up a camp there.
