Second Marriage and Pregnancy: CEO?

Based on what I know about Lu Xialan, she naturally won't let it go so easily.After listening to Jiang Xiaobei's words, my guess was confirmed.

I raised my head and glanced at Jiang Xiaobei, looking at her with a serious expression, she must be worried about me.

So I put down the water glass in my hand, walked straight up to her, and patted her on the shoulder lightly, "Xiaobei, it's okay, I will be careful of Lu Xialan in the near future."

Although I pretended to be relaxed, in fact, I was always worried in my heart.

Regarding how Lu Xialan will retaliate in the future, I don't have any confidence in my heart.In order to reassure Jiang Xiaobei, I can only pretend to be brave.

It's just that I underestimated Jiang Xiaobei's understanding of me. After a few seconds, she saw through all my disguises.

"I, you are the victim of this matter, you can tell Pei Li about Lu Xialan's evil deeds, or when will you swallow your anger before the end!"

When I said this, I could clearly see that she was slightly agitated.

Jiang Xiaobei has always been like this, he always likes to defend me against injustices, and always offers advice when I am being bullied.

In this world, only Jiang Xiaobei is the one who treats me sincerely, and I feel a little moved in my heart.

"But Xiaobei, I can't do this."

After thinking it over and over again, I still rejected her suggestion.

"why?"

Hearing my refusal, Jiang Xiaobei's eyes widened in disbelief, and he frowned puzzled.

"What a chance to expose Lu Xialan, how could you..." She tried to continue to enlighten me.

From her words, I clearly heard a tone of hating iron but not steel.

It's just that there is a reason for me to do so.

"Forget it, don't mention her anymore." I smiled lightly and quickly changed the subject.

Immediately afterwards, I looked down at my watch, and it was almost time for dinner. In order to ease the atmosphere, I proposed to treat guests to dinner.

Seeing that I didn't want to continue talking, Jiang Xiaobei didn't continue to ask why.

It's just that she sighed helplessly, and pointed to the dog in the room, "There are still so many small patients who need my treatment, I'm afraid I won't be able to get away from it."

Following the direction of her finger, I took a look, and there were about five or six dogs waiting for treatment.

It seems that this time the treat is really going to fail.

"Okay, let's do it next time!"

After speaking, I picked up my bag and prepared to leave.

As soon as I took a step with my left foot, Jiang Xiaobei suddenly reached out to block me, "It's getting late, I'm a little worried about you going back alone, why don't you stay at my house tonight."

Of course I knew what she was worried about, and smiled needlessly: "It's okay, it's safe for me to take a taxi back."

Before Jiang Xiaobei could respond, I ran away without a trace.It was getting dark, I was walking alone on the street, my eyes kept showing the passing vehicles, but the taxis passing by seemed to be negotiating, and none of them was empty.

Now is the peak period of car use, and it is inevitable to not be able to get a car.I can only comfort myself like this.

After thinking for a while, I decided to take the bus home.Originally 10 minutes away, it took 10 minutes to arrive by bus.

The biggest reason why I don't want to take the bus is because after getting off the bus, I still have to walk for a while to get home.

Just like now, I am walking on the way home alone in high heels that are more than ten centimeters.

It was completely dark at this time, and there was no one on the road.Since there are no street lights on this road, I can only use a flashlight to emit a faint light and walk forward cautiously.For a girl, it takes courage to take such a night road.

Just like there is only one thought in my mind now, and that is to go home quickly.But God doesn't seem to intend to do what I want.

At this moment, a group of burly men appeared in front of me, approaching menacingly, walking towards me.

My heart tightened, and suddenly an ominous premonition came to my heart.

I glanced around subconsciously, but I couldn't find any figure except me. It was obvious that this group of people came for me.

Sure enough, in the next moment, they surrounded me with baseball bats in their hands.

"Yo, this girl looks good!"

One of the men with a fleshy face was staring at me with a smile that was not a smile. Looking at his squinting eyes, I was suddenly startled.Immediately realized that something was wrong.

Before I had time to think about it, I turned around and tried to break through their encirclement and escape. However, I shouted about my ability.In front of this group of men, I was like a turtle in an urn, with no power to restrain a chicken.

"Eh? Why are you running away, girl? Brothers are very gentle, as long as you are obedient." A man suddenly reached out and grabbed my collar, making me unable to move.

Either way, it's death, just face it bravely, rather than surrender.

I muttered in my heart, I didn't know where the courage came from, I shook off his dirty hands, and asked: "Who are you? If you mess up again, I will call the police!"

The man curled his lips angrily, and snorted nonchalantly, "Call the police? You almost forgot if you didn't remind me. Grab her phone for me."

Before I could react, the mobile phone had been thrown by the side of the road.Now I was a little panicked, and the last straw was gone.

They didn't seem to want to continue to deal with me and pulled me vigorously, trying to drag me into a van not far away.

"Beauty, don't resist, my brothers will love you very much today."

"Yes, we are very gentle."

The booing around me filled my eardrums.

Maintaining the last bit of reason, I resisted desperately, and my cold mind regained a bit of sobriety.

I have never met them before, and I have never caused trouble, so how could I provoke these hooligans.There is only one reason, and that is Lu Xialan's revenge.

"Let go of me!" I yelled at them.

He aimed at the man's crotch and kicked it hard.Immediately afterwards, I heard the painful wailing of the man in the chaos.

They let go of me, maybe not expecting me to fight back.

My heart was already in turmoil, but my face was pretending to be calm, and I held my head up to make my eyes look a little more fierce.

Suddenly, I felt the tightness of my hair, the pain of tearing the entire scalp, and the piercing pain spread from the scalp to the whole body, which made me squint my eyes.

"Stinky woman who doesn't know what to do! Dare to hit my brother! Stinky bitch!"

My hair was tightly grabbed by the man, and the severe pain made me unable to move.

I know this will definitely piss them off.

But I've reached the point of death, and I don't care about other things, the most important thing is to hug myself.

I raised my hands towards the back of the man's hand and pinched down hard.He almost exhausted all his breastfeeding strength, and scratched a bloodstain on the back of his hand.While the man let go of his hand in pain, I broke free and ran forward desperately.

It's just the drawback of the high heels, and the people behind caught up again and surrounded me again.

A slap landed on my cheek, making my ears ring.In my blurred vision, I heard the harsh voice of the man again, "Little bitch, let me see where you are going!"

The men around me immediately pressed towards me.I only heard a snap, and I was slapped hard on the face again.

Looking at the pitch black, I thought I was going to die.There is a kind of despair called "every day should not be answered, and the land will not work".

At this critical moment, a high-beam light suddenly shone in the distance and shot in our direction. The dazzling light instantly made everyone unable to open their eyes and see the opposite side clearly.

"Quick! Let's go!"

After the man gave an order, they finally let me go, then got into the van and drove away.

I couldn't hold on any longer, and collapsed on the ground, the pain had gradually numb the fear in my heart.

At this moment, a car stopped in front of me.The car door opened, and a slender figure was approaching me.

I slowly raised my head, looking at those familiar eyes, slightly startled.

"Sorry, I'm late." Bai Wentao's guilt-ridden tone hit my ears, completely disintegrating my tense nerves.

Tears slid down his cheeks like a flood that had opened its gates.He gently carried me into the car, as if holding a baby, so carefully.

My panicked heart finally calmed down a little.I don't know why I was frightened, but after getting in the car, I felt groggy and powerless.

"Thank you for saving me." Almost uttering these words with difficulty, I lost consciousness.

When I woke up again, I was lying in an unfamiliar room and scanned around carefully. It was a bedroom with simple decoration.

Could it be...

Just thinking about it, Bai Wentao came over with a glass of water, and said to me with pity on his face, "You're awake."

As I guessed, this is Bai Wentao's room.I nodded slightly, gratefully said: "Thank you for saving me, otherwise the consequences would be really unimaginable."

When I say this, I still have lingering fears.If Bai Wentao hadn't appeared in time, I'm afraid I would have died tragically under the slap of this man.

"You're welcome, drink it while it's hot." Bai Wentao helped me up, and put the pillow behind me intimately.Every movement is so gentle.

While I was drinking water, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket and handed it to me, "This is the mobile phone I picked up at the scene, and it is now returned to its original owner."

I was so excited, I took the phone and held it in my arms lovingly. It feels so good to find it again.It's just what he said next that made my mood complicated.

"By the way, Pei Li called just now. I didn't have the heart to wake you up, so I answered the phone on my own initiative." Bai Wentao said calmly.

I squeezed out a smile in embarrassment, and asked in a daze, "What did he say?"

"There is nothing important, I told him that you are here with me." Bai Wentao told me truthfully.

I lowered my head and said nothing.

I secretly thought that the misunderstanding between me and Pei Li must have deepened now.
