Zu Qi lay down by the pool for an afternoon.

Although it is not yet the beginning of autumn, the weather is not as cool as autumn, but the shadows of the trees in this small garden are drenched, and the sun penetrates the dense branches and leaves and sprinkles mottled spots on the gravel paths. It feels a bit of enjoying the coolness in the mountains .

Zu Qi tilted his head, wondering how long he slept, and was suddenly awakened by the sound of a heavy object landing.

He opened his eyes suddenly, and his first reaction was to touch his stomach, but he touched a thin blanket on his stomach, which should have been covered by Mr. Zhang when he was asleep.

Soon Zu Qi was attracted by the spicy aroma floating in the air. He turned his head and saw that the maids were already busy in front of the barbecue grill.

"Madam, you are awake." Xiaoya ran up holding the dinner plate and said with bright eyes, "We have prepared some first. We will cushion your stomach and put less pepper. Would you like to taste it?"

Zu Qi looked at the roasted meat on the dinner plate mixed with chopped green onion and various condiments, and the aroma came out, and he swallowed subconsciously.

He took a skewer of roast beef, took a bite, and his expression was happy.

"Is it delicious?" Xiaoya asked quite invitingly.

"It's delicious!" Zu Qi's eyes showed a light of surprise. God knows how much he misses these heavy-tasting foods. These days, he has been driven crazy by the stewed chicken soup and duck soup.

Zu Qi immediately waved his hand and said, "Give me some more chicken drumsticks and sprinkle more chopped green onion on the noodles."

Xiaoya took the order, put down the plate and ran away.

Soon, Xiaoya ran up with another dinner plate, which contained four chicken drumsticks that were roasted golden and crispy. The surface of the oil-soaked surface was crossed and the fragrance was almost overflowing. The yard is all.

Zu Qi took a chicken drumstick in each hand, eating happily, and did not forget to order Xiaoya.

Zu Qi, who was immersed in the food, did not notice the changes in the surrounding environment. When he reacted with hindsight, Xiaoya and the maids who had been busy in front of the grill stopped at some point.

The vegetables on the grill were still simmering in oil, and the aromas poured in one after another.

"What are you doing? Don't burn it." Zu Qi said vaguely, chewing the chicken thigh in his mouth.

Xiaoya bit her lip timidly, not daring to speak, her head was almost buried in her chest, and the appearance of the others was not much better.

Zu Qi realized that something was wrong, and did not make a sound. He suddenly heard a low and cold voice sounded behind him: "Who allowed you to do this? Don't hurry up and take the things in his hands!"

These words are like a cannonball exploding in the maids pile, and the maids are invariably horrified and rushing to Zuqi like a tide.

When the maids dispersed, the two chicken legs in Zuqi's hands were no longer visible, and even the two dinner plates placed on the small table were taken away.

Zu Qi blinked blankly, momentarily confused, he hurriedly turned his head and looked at the sound source——

The evening sky was filled with large burning clouds. The long figure stood with his back to the sunset, and his whole body was stained with a vague halo. He has a pair of dark and unfathomable eyes as dark as the night, and the bridge of his nose is sharp. Her thin lips glowed with a pale pink like cherry blossom petals under the light.

Xue Jue.

Even if he had not seen Xue Jue himself, Zu Qi guessed his identity for the first time.

He really came...

It's still so fast, I'm afraid that he rushed to the plane immediately after getting off the plane.

There was no expression on Xue Jue's stern face. He stared at Zu Qi lightly, as if looking at an inanimate object.

Zu Qi curled his mouth: "Long time no see, busy man, thank you for taking the time to see me during your busy schedule."

Xue Jue ignored Zu Qi's cynicism, but turned his head and called to the housekeeper Zhang. The housekeeper Zhang, who was standing behind him without a word, immediately understood, and left with a group of maids and bodyguards.

In the blink of an eye, only Zu Qi and Xue Jue remained in this place.

The sound of insects all around intertwined into a film, and the night breeze was smashing on Zu Qi's skin. Zu Qi couldn't help shivering, hurriedly wiped the oil from his palm with a paper towel, and then pulled the thin blanket next to him and wrapped it around her body.

Looking up again, Xue Jue had quietly walked to him.

"There is also a degree of unreasonable trouble. I don't have so much time to play hide and seek with you." Xue Jue looked at Zu Qi condescendingly, his eyes covered with a layer of cold frost.

Zu Qi looked back at Xue Jue without fear, and smiled lightly at the corner of his mouth: "I have no patience to play such a naive trick with you. Actually, I bothered to let you come. I want to talk to you. discuss."

Xue Jue's eyes moved slightly and did not speak.

"Let's break up." Zu Qi said calmly, as if narrating an insignificant thing, "Since we have no feelings between us, it is better to get together and get together and reduce the harm to each other this morning."

Hearing this, Xue Jue snorted as if he heard some joke.

He still didn't move, but his cold gaze couldn't wait to see through Zu Qi's soul.

Zu Qi paused for two seconds. Seeing that the other party's reaction was dull, he lightly tapped the bulging belly with his index finger, half a joke and half a threat, saying: "But I already have your child in my belly, you can't let it We father and son will sleep and eat together in the future, right? You just give me 10 million directly, and I promise to take the child and disappear without a trace, and never set foot in your life again."

Now Xue Jue froze directly. He looked up and down Zu Qi with a nearly unfamiliar eyes, and suddenly let out a deep laugh.

"So you just want to discuss this with me?"

"Otherwise, what else can there be?" Zu Qi got goosebumps when Xue Jue laughed, and she shrank her neck inexplicably. After thinking about it, she decided to take a step back. "For the sake of the child, I can give you For a 9% discount, you can give me 9.9 million."

"...I really thank you." Xue Jue squeezed a word from his teeth, "but it's a pity that I have no intention of breaking up for the time being, so don't even think about it."

"..." Fuck?!

Zu Qi widened his eyes in surprise, thinking that Xue Jue's reaction was wrong. According to the character of the novel, shouldn't he happily agree to his request?!

"Wait..." Zu Qi said hurriedly.

Xue Jue didn't intend to get entangled in this matter any longer, turned around and said to the two remaining bodyguards who were not far away: "Help him in and find someone to put the bath water in."

So Zuqi was carried into the room by two bodyguards for some reason, and then into the bathroom somehow.

After watching Xiaoya and a maid come in and put the hot water, Zu Qi suddenly reacted-isn't he talking about breaking up with Xue Jue?Why are you forced to take a shower if you don't agree?!

Zu Qi cursed secretly, took Xiaoya's thin coat on the shelf and put it on her body, and walked out aggressively. As a result, as soon as she opened the bathroom door, she saw a pair of straight long legs standing outside the door.

Zu Qi's drooping gaze slowly climbed up along the legs, and finally settled on Xue Jue's indifferent face.

"You are all smelling of oily smoke, come out after taking a shower." Xue Jue said and stuffed a bunch of things into Zu Qi's arms.

Zu Qi glanced intently, and it was the pajamas and nightgown he had put Xiaoya in the suitcase.

But the point is not this...

"Xue Jue." Zu Qi corrected his attitude and said in a very strict tone, "I am not making a temper, nor am I trying to threaten you, I sincerely want to break up with you."

Xue Jue showed a non-smiling expression, with a faint mockery in his eyes: "You sharpened your head and squeezed into the door of my Xue's house. Now you want to pat your butt and leave. Have you ever weighed your value Not worth ten million?"

Zu Qi was stunned: "I can give you a 10% discount..."

"I won't give you a penny." Xue Jue suddenly stretched out his hand to clamp Zu Qi's chin. He didn't use any force in his hand, but Zu Qi couldn't breathe because of the high breath.

Zu Qi was forced to look up at Xue Jue's eyes. He found that Xue Jue's eyes were very beautiful, like obsidian, beautiful and dazzling with a cold luster.

"As long as you give birth to your child with peace of mind, and the child will grow up and inherit the Xue family, then half of the Xue family's property will belong to you."

Xue Jue’s low voice seemed to be entwined with charms. His eyes were half-closed, his eyes were particularly clear, and there was a ridiculous sarcasm, "Isn’t this the fame, wealth and wealth you want? I can give it all. You, the premise is that you can fulfill my requirements."

Zu Qi stared at Xue Jue blankly, and was silenced by Xue Jue's words.

He thought the problem too simple...

Now Xue Jue has not fallen in love with the heroine at first sight, and he will not let the blood of the Xue family fall out no matter how bad he is.

What's more, people outside have heard about Xue Jue's fiancée. If he leaves when he is more than six months pregnant, once those people know about it, only comments that are unfavorable to Xue Jue and the Xue family will be heard.

Thinking of this, Zu Qi will inevitably feel frustrated.

Xue Jue glanced at Zu Qi, who suddenly replied like a deflated balloon, slowly released the hand holding his chin, and then ordered the steward Zhang, who was standing beside him as a transparent person.

"Help him take a bath, be careful."

"Okay, sir." Steward Zhang brushed his body slightly, stepped forward to take the clothes in Zuqi's hand, and then squeezed into the bathroom sideways.

Zu Qi thought a lot in a mess, and finally gave up temporarily to communicate with Xue Jue.

He squinted at the housekeeper Zhang who was already waiting in the bathroom, and after half a second of hesitation, he slammed the bathroom door in front of Xue Jue with his hand.

Let you scream!

I'll give you a closed door!

After Zu Qi thought about it viciously, she suddenly heard a jingle.

He looked down and saw that there was an emerald green gem lying beside his feet, emitting a strange luster under the warm orange light.

Zu Qi suddenly felt that the gem was a bit familiar, as if it was one of the belongings of the original owner, but he left those objects in Xue's house and did not bring them out.

How can it appear here?

Zu Qi thought so, the ghost and goddess unexpectedly bent down with difficulty and reached out to pick up the gem. His pregnant body was really heavy and he tried twice to pick up the gem.

As soon as he stood upright, everything around him changed at a speed visible to the naked eye. In just five seconds, the original bathroom disappeared and was replaced by a green grass...
